I upgraded and added points in the Holy Inquisition

Chapter 313 312. Small Project in the History Department

Lloyd continued to read this message, and the more he read, the more he couldn't laugh or cry.

Do these people really regard their twisted tower as a 'campus legend'?

It doesn't matter if the key point is misunderstanding. Why does the direction of this misunderstanding keep getting weirder and weirder? Getting more and more biased?

In fact, the original poster of this message just expressed surprise at this 'tower in the corner', finding it strange and mysterious. Every line of the message showed the excitement of witnessing a 'campus legend' with his own eyes.

Instead, the following replies started talking nonsense:

"Wow? I heard that everyone who sees this tower will encounter misfortune? It seems that they will take the wrong path inexplicably; they will fail the exam; they will make all kinds of stupid mistakes when doing projects? You have to be careful. "

"I've also heard of it. It's said that the most outrageous one was a young elementary school girl who mistook a street lamp for a pretty and cute girl. She knelt down and confessed her love on the spot..."

"That's not all. There was a senior in our biology department who got lost once and approached this tower by mistake. After that, he was sent directly to the mental hospital area and lay there for more than half a year before he barely recovered!"

"Yes, yes, I have heard about this too, and after the senior came out, he kept silent about the things inside. No matter who asked, he refused to speak... I can't imagine how terrifying he saw it?"

"Could it be... some kind of high-ranking mysterious existence?"

"It's very possible. I'm from the Department of Occult Studies, and I'm currently studying the subject of divination. Our professor has specifically told me not to be curious about that tower, and not to divine what's in it!"

"Wow? Why does it get scarier the more you talk about it? There can't really be any man-eating monsters in there, right?"

"It might be okay if it's just about eating people... I've heard people say that that tower can destroy the entire Mizkatok!"

Anyway, that's it. As the replies below become more and more, all kinds of speculations and speculations become more and more outrageous, and further and further away from the truth, turning into all kinds of 'big horrors', 'indescribable',' It cannot be said, it cannot be seen, it cannot be thought about, it cannot be looked at directly.

The key is just to discuss the tower. Later, Lloyd found out why he was shot while lying down?

"Let me tell you quietly, I saw a boy walking out of that tower just this morning!"

"What? Someone else ran in without fear of death?"

"No, no, no, that doesn't seem to be the case. I've never seen that boy before. The armband looks brand new and there's no etching on it, which means he should be a real freshman who has just entered school. But think about it, the new school year hasn't started yet. Where can I go? A new student here?"

"Hiss~ From what you said, could it be that the things in that tower disguised themselves as humans and got into our midst?"

"No? Then if it intends to harm others, wouldn't it be impossible to guard against it? Will it secretly attack lone students and eat them?"

"Tell me what that boy looks like? What are his characteristics?"

"He seems to be quite handsome, a rare handsome guy, but this is meaningless! Since the thing inside can disguise itself as a human, it must be able to change its appearance at will. Maybe... it will become someone you know. People?"

"What...what should I do? Will my roommate cease to be my roommate one day? Will he suddenly eat me up one day?"

"I...I seem to have heard a similar story. There is an evil monster that will turn into the shape of the person it eats. Then this guy may eat you, then change into your appearance, and continue to eat Your friends and even relatives!”

"Wow! Stop talking! It's getting scarier the more you talk!"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

The subsequent discussion turned into a bunch of people guessing what kind of monster the handsome boy was. What's the origin? What does the body look like?

Anyway, I just came up with various stories from hearsay, about monsters in disguise, about extra students, about relatives who suddenly resurrected...

As for the specific image, it has evolved from the handsome young man at the beginning to a big monster with a face like cinnabar, eyes like copper bells, and a mouth like a basin of blood. It eats people and eats people! Eat people in different ways!

Lloyd was speechless.

Why can't you get over cannibalism?

Although I have never tasted it myself, it doesn’t taste good to humans, right?

Although I have excellent cooking skills, I really haven’t studied how to be a human being, right?

No more watching.

Lloyd shook his head and closed the student handbook.

However, through such a 'misunderstanding', he realized that even with such a convenient student handbook, the efficiency of information circulation here in Mizkatok was not as efficient as imagined.

When he first entered the academy, there were many onlookers, but no one stood up to refute the rumors, which proved that there were normal freshmen who had recently enrolled.

Among the new classmates I met, no one came forward to help explain...

Maybe it's because not everyone likes to browse the 'message board', and not everyone likes to read the 'story area', right?

As for the distortion department's 'teaching building', it was rumored that it was completely changed beyond recognition...

But since there are no students in the distortion department, there is naturally no one to help refute the rumors...

Forget it, just pass it on as you like, just don't scare yourself so much that you can't sleep.

Lloyd cursed, then ran to take a shower, planning to go to bed early.

Speaking of which, I spent this evening alone, my childhood sweetheart, she didn't come...

And there is no way to [sneak in] to go to Elolo, so I can only sleep alone...

For some reason, Lloyd suddenly felt a little lonely.

Then the next second, he felt someone else beside him.

"Wow!!!"

Lloyd was somewhat affected by the nonsense of those people before, and he almost jumped in fright.

Fortunately, if I take a closer look, I can see that it's my childhood sweetheart?

Although she is still incorporeal, she can feel the familiar gentle temperament and sweet smell on her body, as if she has fallen asleep.

Uh...why is she becoming more and more bold? Are you all running to your own bed?

If I dare to do this now, I don’t even dare to think about what else I dare to do in the future...

But as the saying goes, even if they come, Lloyd will naturally not be able to drive others out of bed.

And this bed is also very wide, so two people can roll around on it without feeling crowded.

After all, they are 'childhood sweethearts', so sleeping in the same bed doesn't seem to be a big deal?

Of course, besides sleeping, there is nothing else to do...

Lloyd was thinking wildly in his mind, and his mood gradually calmed down. Then he lay down again and whispered again:

"Good night."

He didn't wait for a response, he just felt a fragrant and soft body rubbing against him.

In fact, there is not much charm and ambiguous feeling, more like a kind of "natural" and "natural" atmosphere.

This atmosphere made Lloyd feel an inexplicable sense of peace of mind, and he fell asleep peacefully.

……………… By the early morning of the next day, Lloyd was still woken up on time by his biological clock, and then started his routine in Mizkatok.

First, go back to the [Thinking Realm] to get today's madness points. After upgrading, add 5 attribute points to [Rationality], directly pushing [Rationality] to 300 points, bringing a solid sense of security.

Then he wanted to rub the little kitten on the pillow before he woke up, so he grabbed it and wiped his face.

As a result, the little milk cat suddenly woke up, jumped on Lloyd's head, and rubbed his face.

Uh... Why does it feel like a little cat is using it to wipe your face?

Has it learned to take the initiative?

Afterwards, Lloyd took the little cat for morning exercise, then made some breakfast and prepared to start today's study.

But missing the part of combing his sister's hair made him feel empty...

At this moment, the student handbook vibrated, and a message from Professor Lawrence came:

"Are you awake? Come to the laboratory when you wake up. You should know the coordinates, right?"

Lloyd felt that there should be some kind of tacit understanding between Professor Lawrence and Professor Hazlade? Although there didn't seem to be a clear timetable, Professor Lawrence didn't contact me yesterday, which meant that they would contact me every other day.

He then replied:

"Okay, I'll be there soon."

The last time he calculated the coordinates of the Knowledge Square in the laboratory, because the spatial properties of the laboratory were very special, Lloyd calculated the coordinates of the laboratory by the way. It saves trouble now and can just use the last result.

Before leaving, Lloyd said to the little milk cat:

"I'm leaving, take good care of the house... By the way, you can also invite your new friends to play at home."

He still remembered the round little pig yesterday, it was very cute.

After that, he passed through the portal and arrived at the laboratory with perfect accuracy.

Compared to the day before yesterday, there were two more researchers here. When they saw Lloyd coming in, they nodded to him as a greeting.

"Morning~"

Lloyd responded politely, and then discovered that there was an unknown professor next to Professor Lawrence——

The professor's dress looks a bit... dusty? Just look suitable for adventure, hunting jacket, boots, waterproof hat, etc. all come together.

If it weren't for the collar pin on his collar that could only be worn by professors, Lloyd would have almost thought this was the adventurer Professor Lawrence saved from the monster's mouth.

The two professors were chatting in a low voice. After seeing Lloyd appear, Professor Lawrence raised his chin and asked:

"How's it going? This is the person I recommended. Isn't it good?"

Lloyd immediately felt that the adventurer-like professor first glanced at his armband, then at his collar, and then said in a dumbfounded voice:

"You recommend a new student to me? Even if he has an honors student lapel, he is still a new student!"

"What's wrong with the new student? Didn't you say it's safe? I just want him to see the world."

"Eh? Wait! How come your space department is recruiting new students?"

"Don't worry about such small things. Anyway, I have successfully convinced the dean... Anyway, you have also seen that I am doing a routine rotation here, and there are only so many people, so either you take him with you, or you can etc?"

"Uh... let me think about it and discuss it."

The adventurer professor said, closing his eyes on the spot and acting as if he was dozing off.

Professor Lawrence was not idle either, so he asked Lloyd:

"How did you read those books?"

"Hmm...a bit profound, a bit obscure..."

Lloyd answered truthfully, hesitating whether to tell the professor that he spent two days and only read two-thirds of the first book.

It’s better not to say it. It’s so inefficient and feels embarrassing...

Professor Lawrence looked very reasonable and continued:

"Slowness is normal. Even the basic knowledge is as obscure as you said. Otherwise, our space department would not require third-year students to join... So I arranged a practical project for you."

As he spoke, he glanced at the adventurer professor next to him. The latter had not yet woken up and was still dozing off.

"Their history department is like this. They can only communicate remotely through this inefficient method, but they claim to be safe."

Professor Lawrence smiled disdainfully and explained helpfully.

Lloyd pointed to his nose and asked in surprise:

"A project in the history department? Me?"

"Yes, you should have noticed, right? Mizkatok has many school districts, but it also has more dangerous areas."

Lloyd nodded.

In the past two days, he had learned a lot about Mizkatok and the history department here by wandering around and reading the student handbook.

Although the school districts here seem to be independent spaces with no direct physical connection to each other, if all the school districts are added up, their area should not be smaller than the southern district of Brilliant City.

For a college the size of a city, this is already a very exaggerated scale.

But that's not all. In addition to these existing school districts, there are also wider 'danger areas', which are also called 'historic areas' and 'archaeological areas' by some students.

If you add up these areas, the size of Mizkatok is probably not inferior to that of Brilliant City.

These dangerous areas were once the territory of the academy, but as the end came, Mizkatok did not end well. He also experienced a terrible catastrophe, and the entire academy was almost destroyed overnight.

After all, in that glorious era, Mizkatok was equally glorious, and the large amount of knowledge it preserved became the most vicious poison...

Fortunately, the college survived in the end, and then repaired and restored it to its current size.

In those dangerous areas that have not been rescued, there are still massive treasures of pre-civilizations waiting to be discovered by future generations.

Mizkatok's history department specializes in this.

Of course, we are bound to face various unknown dangers and terrors...
