Chapter 461 166. The Day the Dusk Ends (1)

The water pipe dripped and tapped to release water magic. Hobbs put away the medicine bottles one by one, looked up at himself in the mirror, and looked haggard on his brows, eyes and cheeks.

He has only been in school for less than half a year, but he looks like he is three years older, and his bun has a little more gray hair.

"It's just a necessary price..."

Hobbs didn't think about it, he raised his hand and looked at the ring on his middle finger.

From being completely black and translucent at the beginning, the ring has almost completely faded and turned extremely pale.If someone perceives it carefully, they will find that the once vigorous and powerful spiritual force on the ring is almost exhausted at this moment, and it seems that it will disappear soon.

"The time is coming, Lian Na, if you wait a little longer, I will succeed."

Hobbs lowered his head and clenched his fists, kissing the ring, his tired and wavering eyes immediately became firm.

There was not much time left for him.

He is different from geniuses like Lucitt and Leozi. Maybe in the eyes of ordinary people, they are not outstanding, just ordinary students, but the talents of ordinary people in this school far exceed themselves.

With my own aptitude, it was extremely difficult to get into this school. With the help of medicine, I could barely keep up with the progress.

"We must persevere, for Lian Na, and for this unfair world..."

Hobbs clenched his fists tightly, made up his mind, washed his face with water, and his thinking became clearer. He pulled his face and returned to his usual slick and friendly appearance.

Walking out of the bathroom, Hobbs immediately received a message from someone else:

[Good buddy——Lioz]: "I'm fighting with Di Yalan in Arena 12, you should go and see Lucitt first."

"This guy..." Hobbs was speechless.

Although I persuaded him several times in private, and also hinted that the 'Golden Princess' had a mediocre reputation, Lioz seemed to be very short of credits, and couldn't care less.

"No, Leozi is not an idiot, Di Yalan is not a good girl, he won't go to get close to Di Yalan for a mere 20 credits—well, is that just for sex?"

Hobbes mused:

"Di Yalan's appearance is indeed extremely beautiful, and it's normal for young and restless students to eat this set - but in the future, let's introduce some normal female students to Lioz. Except for good blood and beautiful appearance, other places, no matter Whether it's family background or economic situation, Di Yalan really can't."

Forget it, Leozi may have his own plans, and when he hits a wall, he will definitely drag them to drink and vomit their bitterness. As a good brother, he should respect and bless him.

Hobbes did not want to lose such a pure friend.

After all, in this school, everyone has their own goals and secrets, otherwise Lianna would not have been murdered... Those who can still maintain a certain aspect of innocence, such as Leozi and Lucite, the relationship between them Friendship is too rare, too rare, as precious as a gem.

"Lioz has his own considerations, so there shouldn't be any problems."

Turning off the message rune, Hobbs was about to go on to the library to meet Luciter, when he took a few steps, a female voice suddenly sounded in his ear.

"Excuse me, this classmate, can I bother you a little bit?"

Hobbs turned his head, and saw a beautiful woman wearing a veil walking towards him, her snow-blue eyes narrowed slightly, like a crescent crescent, which truly explained what it means to be seductive like silk.She was carrying a lyre with her, and she was dressed in cool clothes, and her voice was extremely alluring, as if she was the kind of bard that is more common in small cities.

This is a rare beauty—but beauty is not attractive to Hobbs, not only because of his obsession with Lianna, but also because of the real beauty of Lioz who kills men and women every day. Shaking, I have long been used to it.

Hobbes asked kindly:

"You don't look like a student, have you encountered any problems?"

"As you can see, I came to your school for the first time and wanted to visit a friend I hadn't seen for many years, but I didn't know where she was at the moment."

The female bard said, blinking her snow-blue eyes, conveying an expression of distress.

Hobbes was indifferent, but asked: "Well, who are you looking for?"

"Nastisa Dantein." The female bard said, "She has said that she has been an associate professor in this school for many years, but she has not contacted her for too long, so I don't know if she is still here."

"Nastissa? That happens to be the dean of our School of Applied Magic." Hobbs was a little surprised: "It's just how I remember, it was more than 100 years ago when she was an associate professor..."

"Huh? Maybe I remembered wrongly." The female bard smiled and said, "Since she is the dean of your college, brother, you should know where her office is, right?"

"I know, but I know, you can find her on the map—but, you can't find her now." Hobbs scratched his head.

"Huh?" The female bard blinked: "What's going on here?"

"Well, you must be an outsider, so I don't know."

Hobbs pointed to the sky:

"Although Trivira is the capital of White Candle Star, the base of the Ministry of Education is set up in outer space orbit. Senior scholars like the dean level must have the existence of the Zeta order upwards, every three months , have to go to the Ministry of Education to participate in training, listen to the will of the highest meeting, and also submit a report on their own beliefs to ensure that their materialistic beliefs cannot be shaken-this is their training period, and it will take a week anyway return."

"Well, that's true." The female bard held her chin, "White Candle Star can only tolerate the upper limit of the Zeta-level powerhouse, and people of that level cannot live on the surface for a long time."

"That's right." Hobbs shrugged: "The planet has a limit. If a strong person exceeds this limit, if he stays on the planet for a long time, his strength will also decline and his body will become unhealthy."

"Oh? Is there such a thing?"

As soon as the words came out, the female bard saw Hobbs was surprised, and immediately explained:
"I'm just a mortal, and I don't know anything about the way—but if you say that, isn't there no strongman above the Zeta rank sitting in the White Candle Star?"

Hobbs sensed the opponent's biological frequency, which was indeed at the level of the gamma order.

'It's really a mortal, but mortals can actually know people of the level of the dean, probably because they are related, so it's better to be more polite. '

Hobbs was very shrewd. After figuring it out, he didn't neglect the other party because he was a mortal, but explained seriously:

"It's normal to have this kind of worry—however, it's impossible for us White Candlestars to have this kind of problem."

"how do I say this?"

"White Candle itself is only an education planet, and there are no precious strategic resources produced, which reduces the interest of many interstellar looting groups."

Hobbes stated:

"Furthermore, White Candle Star has a Kappa-level education minister sitting in charge. Even if there is an invasion by a super-Zeta-level powerhouse, they will be able to react immediately."

"Don't need to say more about the powerhouses of the Kappa stage? Even in interstellar wars, they are very important strategic weapons, and the power blessed by the star abyss, smashing planets, is like eating and drinking water for them nature."

"With this kind of prestige, which blind looting group would dare to enter the White Candle Star?"

These remarks are very reliable, the female bard nodded:

"That's true."

It's just that between her words and expressions, she doesn't seem to agree with this kind of statement.

Hobbs was keenly aware of what the other party wanted to say and had different opinions, but before asking, the female bard waved her hand: "Since Nastisha is not here, I will leave today. Come to visit again. Thank you, brother."

"It's nothing, anyone you ask will get the same answer." Hobbs disagreed.

"That's not necessarily the case." The female bard smiled: "You are a nice person——in that case, let this be a thank you gift, please accept it."

Like a magic trick, she took out a card from behind and handed it to Hobbs.

Hobbs curiously took the card and looked it over carefully for a while. It should be some kind of mysterious creation, something like a talisman. The ancient words on it also seemed to mean blessing and good luck.

When he looked up, the woman had disappeared.

"What a strange person."

Hobbs muttered and put away the talisman.

"I don't know what is the relationship between her and Dean Nastisha Dantein - she said that she has not seen the dean for many years, and that the dean is an associate professor - is she not as young as she looks? But Her aura is obviously that of a mortal, how did a mortal live for so long?"

Another point, he is very concerned about.

When he said, "Which blind looting group dares to enter the White Candle Star?" ’, the female bard showed a questioning and weird look for a moment.

That look...like saying 'are you kidding me'?
But in fact, that's the case, Baizhuxing has never had to worry about such things.

The more he thought about it, the more he couldn't figure it out, and Hobbs didn't continue to think about it. He had already wasted a lot of time, and Lucite was still waiting for him.

........................

White Candle star outer space orbit.

'Amaryllis' fortress relies on the planet's gravitational force to suspend, and the white candle star rotates peacefully 300 million meters above the ground. Relying on the centrifugal force of the rotation, the mages and officials inside can stand firmly in it.

The teleportation hall was illuminated with light, and after a brief silhouette flashed, Nastasha Dantein raised her head and calmly followed the surrounding mages into the hall.

"Hey, the most annoying time has come."

The dean of the School of Foreign Relations, Master Carl Rufus, mumbled in a low voice:

"Once every three months, it's training in name, but actually it's to check whether our materialistic beliefs are shaken, to see if we have a tendency to betray or break away from the Crystal Tower civilization. It's completely ideological monitoring!"

"Master Karl, you are too narrow, this is a necessary means." Ye Wangnan, the dean of the School of Natural Ecology, chuckled: "Those night butterflies spread their idealism everywhere, they must be completely defeated, and their shrines must be destroyed. Just sweep it into the dustbin of history, and it’s nothing if we make a little sacrifice for it.”

"You, you don't really believe this kind of rhetoric, do you? This is completely politically correct." Master Karl said, looking at Nastisa Dantein: "Hey, Dean Dantein, what do you think? "

"Me? It doesn't really matter how you look at it." Nastisha shook her head: "The Supreme Council has their plans. Trusting their comments is worse than trusting a piece of steak. But now, they are indeed trying to maintain our political unity. and work hard."
