"Why are there people in the school recently sending such leaflets?" Louise said dissatisfied and said, "It's very troublesome to clean it up."

Shouldn't you first ask how these so-called "flyers" ran into your room?

"Louise, what are these flyers?" Heihe Cairen said curiously.

"Things like wanted orders" Louise glanced at "that we should pay attention to the thief named Fukai of the clumps"

"It feels like the anti-theft instructions sent in our community." Hirahe Cairen nodded

"What a joke? I have seen a lot of thieves who dared to steal from the academy, but there was really no one who could succeed." Louise threw the paper into a trash can made of branches. "There are no ones who dared to steal the student dormitory. If you want to come here to steal, it's better to wait for us to return home on holiday."

"Louise, I've always wanted to ask you a question." Hiraga Cairen supported his chin with his hands. "Does the magicians here like to add XXX before their names?"

"Yes, it's equivalent to the nobles' famous honor. Every magic envoy will have a title." Louise nodded

"Aren't you afraid of repetition?"

"Repeat? That doesn't matter," Louise thought, "but if the title is the same, there will be a fight. There are such activities every year, and it ended not long ago this year."

"Will someone investigate all the titles of nobles and arrange challenges?" Hiraki Tsai said in surprise, "This is even more boring than the level-breaking program in our place."

"Because you can register, then the palace will arrange a duel for people with the same title. The winner will get that title, and the loser will think again." Louise shook her finger and said, "Don't think that the title is of no use at all, it symbolizes the characteristics of a person."

"Yeah, Louise's characteristics are very consistent, after all, it's zero." Heiga Tsai-ren held back his smile, "It's the same in both magic and figure, puff."

Ten minutes later

"It's so cold..." Hiraki Tsai, who was sitting in the corridor outsider, said in disappointment. "It seems that he really is going to sleep in the aisle today..."

"Click" The door that was originally locked was opened

"Oh oh oh! Louise, you really..."

"I'm going to find Chong so that no one will open the door when he comes in in the middle of the night." Louise said angrily, "Just let me sleep well outside the door. If you dare to sneak into that woman's door, then you don't have dinner this week!"

"Yes..." Hiraki Cairen shrank his head obediently, then squatted by the wall without moving.

"Hmph! This is the end of talking too much." Louise turned around and left

Backdoor of the college

"Yes" Looking at the rocks shattered by lightning, he nodded with satisfaction, "Very good, you're desirable."

"..." Chong stood there without saying a word

"What? Don't you continue?" He waved his hand and several rocks floated on the ground. "Come on, you should have more magic list today."

"...Why do you need to teach me?" Chong spoke after being silent for a moment.

"Are you scared?" he sneered, "Don't worry, I'm just worried that there will be no successor."

"As long as you have talent, I can teach anyone," he said coldly. "You have talent and talent, so I am willing to teach you."

"Knowledge does not distinguish between national boundaries, nor is it good or bad," he continued. "I am not the kind of fool who will bury his jade because of his own likes and dislikes. It's better to say that I like to teach others."

"Or what if I die one day, who should I entrust all these things I hold?" He said lightly, "I'm very worried, I'm very worried about this happening."

"...I don't know." Chong shook his head and said, "delivery what he owns to others. I have never thought about this kind of thing."

"I just feel uneasy about the future" a very ordinary tone, but it did not have all the coldness I usually say. "I have lived for a long time, it should be said to be evil. In short, I have touched the realm of the undead."

"I believe you won't understand the sorrow of the immortal. This is the only thing I agree with you," he said. "It's a good thing that you don't pursue eternity."

"...The immortal will lose everything in excessive time" Tsuka said what he said to Yakumori "It's so scary, so don't."

"It's really fun to say it from you." He sneered, "What if you're more afraid? I'm the evil guy who will cut off your head at any time."

"Knowledge is not good or bad. As long as someone is willing to teach me, I don't care about anything." Chong Tanmo said, "I have come into contact with a lot of things that will die."

"Good answer, I guess the two of us can have such a gentle conversation is limited to this time," he sneered, "Then just ask for it, how much you can get depends on you. As long as you want, I will give you anything."

"...will it become stronger?" Chong said like the protagonist in the hot-blooded comic "How is magic... better than science?"

"Technology creates finite from finite, and magic creates infinite from infinity." He grabbed a handful of mud and sand. "The materials that can be made into weapons, but Il, metals and minerals have an end point. Once they are used up, they cannot be regenerated. Magic does not require weapons, they only need a single unified point."

"No matter how powerful a weapon is, it will break, but magic is nothingness, no one can see zero." He spread his hands and let the fine sand pass through the cracks between his fingers. "But magic also has weaknesses. Their unification takes time. Humans cannot control the true nothingness, so there will be an extra limit on all species on earth, and magic will be affected by it."

"For example," he seemed to be addicted to "alchemy, which is the field of science's favorite research."

"You think alchemy is the mutual transformation between elements, but we think it is an equivalent exchange. We offer earth to nothingness, so nothingness returns gold to us." He stepped on the ground hard. "To put it bluntly, magic is a sacrifice. You give invisible things to nothingness, and nothingness returns tangible things to you, of course there will be something missing."

"I didn't emphasize the advantages of magic." He suddenly fell silent. "Science is better than magic, this is the truth."

"No matter how weak a person picks up a gun, it will be fearful. They only need to pull the trigger, and the bullet will penetrate the fragile magic shield." He said coldly, "The technology is too simple, and no matter how strong a person is, he cannot survive the strafing of hundreds of thousands of guns, so magic will of course decline."

"A horse is a thousand - to put it bluntly, that's just a ridiculous praise. No matter how powerful magic is, it requires time and matter as the basis, and they just need to move their fingers."

"Then you choose, do you want to continue to ask me for knowledge?" He looked at himself. "The sword is destined to be an auxiliary in the future, and you can no longer fight with guns."

"It's equivalent to a transformation. I don't allow you to use technology anymore, but I will let you get the most powerful original text." Force yourself to make a choice

"..." Chong was silent and said nothing

"It's hard to make a choice? Then I'll do whatever you want" replied rashly "I have time, but don't forget that the longer you make a choice, the less you can get. This is equivalent exchange."

"Rise up the great fire" he spitted a spell casually

"Boom!!!" A wailing sounded at the walls of the college tower, and then a large number of bricks fell off the tower surface.

"?"Not surprised, Chong was just a little curious

"That's it, the next funeral will be the first class." He gradually hid in the air "It will let you get the answer"

"————" The sound of the bulge of the ground was heard from afar, as if someone was digging the soil

"..." After a moment, the huge stone giant slowly approached the tower, and several lights were lit in the academy at the same time. It seemed that the alert state was activated.

"Is there a treasure house inside?" Chong watched the giant reach out to serve as a bridge with his own eyes, and then the man in a brown robe walked leisurely into the tower from his arms. "A bold thief, it would be better to say that the defense here is too lax."

"Get the answer...but there is no science here." All items are activated by magic, there is not even electricity or gasoline here, and the weapons on my body have long been removed.

(Is science overly dependent on weapons...) Chong thought about this and did not care about the so-called thief. This matter had nothing to do with him. I guess the other party did not intend to let him go up and die at this time.

"This, what's this!" The girl's scream of surprise came from behind.

"Tsk" Chong frowned. Why did Louise come over at this time and appear at the point of stepping on it?

"It must be a high-level earth magician who invaded this place...Chong comes here quickly!" Louise hurriedly trotted to him, "Be careful not to be affected!"

Let me talk about it here that the distance between him and the stone giant is only a few hundred meters, and the other party can step on his own in just two or three steps.

"..." Chong himself was not very conscious. He saw that he was planning to steal things. He didn't do anything and wouldn't be bored to attack him.

But...it seems to be too close

"Crack" a whine sounded from the top of the tower, and the huge spire fell toward them. If you were to take someone, you would not be able to hide.

"Let's go down!" Louise pulled her hand. Could it be that she was planning to use her small body to block the top of the tower for herself?

"Being underestimated" Chong said coldly

"It's great power...and the chanting is too short." As if recalling the magic he used just now, Chong Qing nodded.

"Shadow World Projection" The black shadow curtain floated out of the void, and then turned into paper and gathered on the hand "Wand Projection"

(Using gems as charge... It's so expensive) Chong took out a piece of amber from his pocket casually

The "earth" energy storage is completed, and the minerals are converted into magic. The magic carried by the wand itself is activated.

"———" The earth wall rose from the ground and then turned into a fortress to obscure the moonlight.

"Boom!" With a heavy sound, the stone wall returned to calm after trembling a few times. Footsteps came from outside. It seemed that the other party had already got what he wanted and left.

"Reclaim" the wand turned into a shadow and returned to the different space

"I don't even need to chant... It looks like a very high-end magic wand." Louise said in surprise, "I have to buy you something... I'm very failed."

"...No, just be willing to be willing" Chong said casually, does it sound like comfort?

"Yeah" seems to be very disappointed, but it turns out that I am not suitable to comfort others

"Go back," Chong said, looking at the teacher who had gathered here.

"Yeah" nodded obediently, and always felt that the status of both sides had been changed.

(Choose science or magic...who is more powerful? No, it would be better to say that as long as it can be used, I should ask for it) A very difficult choice, and it is impossible to make a decision. It seems that even a treasure that has fallen still has great charm in itself.

Or... is the person who is in charge of it very charming?

Note 1: I plan to use this chapter to complete some settings + introduce magic
Chapter completed!
