Chapter 258: The Academy's Attitude Chen Daolin drove with Carmen, and the changes in this night were huge, and he experienced several struggles on the line of life and death.
When the two were on the road, Chen Daolin naturally felt that Dean Carmen's attitude had changed slightly.
In the past, Carmen was very kind to herself, but it was a standard of love and respect for emerging young talents from the head of the academy.
And after last night's crisis, along the way, Chen Daolin felt that although Carmen still spoke to him in that cold tone, his occasional words also revealed a little more concern and closeness to himself.
Apparently this was because he had not left her alone in a moment of crisis last night, and this act of loyalty and reliability impressed Carmen, and it is unknown whether or not it was because he had stripped the dean of beauty from her clothes.
In short, Chen Daolin naturally let it rot in his stomach, and never dared to mention half a word again.
Carmen carefully asked Chen Daolin how he killed the two magicians along the way, and asked Chen Daolin to carefully explain the process of the battle twice.
Then Dean Carmen sighed and glanced at Chen Daolin deeply: "You, your luck is extremely good, and your courage is also extremely big, these two battles, if there is a mistake, now you and I have died tragically." ” Chen Daolin smiled, and seemed a little embarrassed: "At that time, the situation was critical, and there was no choice, if I didn't fight, I would die, and I was lucky." ” "It's not luck."
Carmen looked at Chen Daolin with a strange expression: "At this life-and-death juncture, between fighting, it takes not only courage, but also experience, vision, and instantaneous judgment to grasp the sensitivity of the fighter."
An ordinary person would never be able to do this.
Only people who have been in the critical moment of life and death many times, and have experienced the line of life and death many times, can achieve this level of daring, you must have experienced a lot of things before."
Chen Daolin was speechless for a while.
If you think about it carefully, in the nearly one year since I came to the Roland world, I have changed a lot.
From a timid and cowardly, sneaky little grassroots otaku, and gradually transformed into a brave person who dares to give it a go in the face of death. has experienced many life and death before, and it is indeed that his temperament and surname have been turned upside down, and the whole person seems to have taken on a new look after transformation.
If you think about it, it was really a lot of disasters after I came to this Roland world, and I almost died in the hands of orcs several times in the frozen forest, and then I ran to the human world with Barossa, first met the Stone Lady and her group in the small courtyard, and almost died. then went south, destroyed the marriage of the Liszt family, and was almost killed by the Liszt patriarch when he became a shield. eloped with Rodelle, and then went to the East and overseas, and dealt with the pirates several times, which can be described as a life of nine deaths.
Later, he left Alcatraz and fell into the hands of pirates, nearly killing himself with the damn One-Eye. took Xia Xia and the two of them to drift on the sea in a boat, and they almost fell into a desperate situation, and they were already in despair at that time, so they sat and waited for death Even if an ordinary person doesn't have it in a lifetime, even if he can't encounter so many things in a few lifetimes, he has let himself encounter them all at once in more than half a year.
If you say that you were originally a rusty and rotten knife, but in the past half a year, you have been repeatedly quenching and sharpening the knife, and it can be regarded as finally sharpening a little edge.
At this moment, when Carmen said such words, Chen Daolin was also moved in his heart, and he couldn't help but look at himself, and he was also emotional.
"If you kill those two mages, you can always find out their identities.
All magicians always have an identity registered in the Magic Guild, and I, as the senior deacon of the Guild, also have the authority to check these things.
Carmen said lightly.
Chen Daolin nodded.
"But I have something to advise you."
"Dean, please speak."
"Although you killed two mid-level mages, it is all opportunistic and not your true skill.
If you fight for real magic cultivation, you may not be able to take care of any of them.
So this record of killing two people, if it is really put on your head, with your age, and your recent limelight, I am worried that you are too eye-catching, you should understand the truth of Mu Xiu Yulin, you are young, too much limelight may not be a good thing, and it will inevitably cause people to be jealous, and in the future, I am afraid that there will be some people who are not long-sighted and eager to become famous to come to challenge you and find you trouble.
This kind of thing can still be saved."
Speaking of this, Carmen looked at Chen Daolin and deliberately paused to speak.
Chen Daolin immediately said: "What you said is that I know that my strength is not good, and it is pure luck to kill those two mages, even if I can't say it, I'm afraid no one will believe it."
I think it's better to keep this matter a secret, so as not to get into trouble.
I'm young, and I've been in the limelight a lot lately, and I'm really grateful that you've thought about me, Dean."
Carmen looked at Chen Daolin carefully, trying to judge whether what he said was true, but saw Chen Daolin's eyes clear and sincere, Carmen couldn't help but nodded, and his senses for Chen Daolin rose a few points.
I just think that this young kid is really a little interesting: if he changes to other young people who are frivolous and love vanity, I am afraid that I can't wait to publicize this matter so that the whole world knows that killing two middle-level mages in a battle is such an amazing achievement, as long as it is spread, it will immediately become famous in the world Chen Daolin is young, and he doesn't covet this kind of false name, it seems that he is the kind of person who can calm down and do things.
This kind of young people who are willing to calm down and do things in a down-to-earth manner are now becoming fewer and fewer.
In fact, Carmen didn't think about it much: Chen Daolin didn't want to be too showy.
But there is another important reason for agreeing so happily: fear of retaliation He prevented such an important assassination by the other party, how hated it was If he deliberately publicized it, and also hyped that he killed the other party's two magicians, such a naked hatred, Chen Daolin is not so stupid "Externally, let's just say that I killed those two mages."
Carmen seemed to smile, glanced sideways at Chen Daolin, and said with a smile: "You won't slander me in your heart for deceiving the world and stealing your reputation."
"How could I think so," Chen Daolin hurriedly said: "Dean, this is to help me prevent trouble, if I don't understand this truth, I will be cultivated by you for so long in vain."
The two finally drove out of the city.
At curfew, the gates were closed, but after Carmen revealed his identity, where would the city guards stop such privileged people And Carmen immediately took Chen Daolin into the city, and went straight to the palace and went to the palace gate, the royal forest army guarding the imperial city saw that Carmen came late at night, where did he dare to slack off, and soon a commander arrived.
Carmen didn't talk much nonsense, just told the commander that he had something important to meet the emperor.
The other party originally wanted to shirk it, and this kind of thing of meeting the emperor in the middle of the night was a little inappropriate after all.
But Carmen immediately threw a cold sentence: "I was attacked and killed by many rebels last night, and I almost died, if you don't tell you about this matter, the emperor will know about it at dawn, and I am afraid that it will take your head." ” Hearing that even the dean of the Academy of Magic had been assassinated, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army was immediately shocked, and hurriedly went in to tell the truth, and in a few moments, more Royal Forest Army came to the gate of the imperial city, opened the gate, and escorted Carmen and Chen Daolin into the palace.
At this time, it was already before dawn, and His Majesty the Emperor had not yet gotten up.

But as soon as he heard that such a great event had happened, the emperor quickly got up.
Chen Daolin and Carmen were taken to a hall in the palace and waited for a while, when a court attendant came in and announced with a trembling attitude: His Majesty the Emperor has asked Dean Carmen to come and speak.
As for Chen Daolin, although he is also quite appreciated by the emperor, this appreciation is far from enough to be compared with a big man like Carmen.
The court attendant told Chen Daolin to let him wait here, as for whether the emperor would see him and when he would see him, he would wait Carmen went to meet the emperor, Chen Daolin waited here alone, he fought all night, and he was indeed tired, plus his mental strength was exhausted, he was hungry and thirsty, so he asked the court attendants to get some food to pad his stomach, and he almost fell asleep on the chair.
When he woke up, the sun outside the window had already shone overhead, Chen Daolin was clever, and quickly jumped up from the chair, wiped the corners of his mouth, and still had some saliva.
At this time, he found that he was not alone in this lounge.
Carmen didn't know when she had returned, and was standing at a window not far from Chen Daolin, with her back to Chen Daolin, staring out of the window, stunned.
"Awake" Carmen didn't look back, but threw a soft word.
Chen Daolin smiled embarrassedly and tidied up his clothes: "I don't know why, I actually fell asleep." ” Carmen turned around, stared at Chen Daolin a few times with a pair of eyes, and then smiled lightly: "You are indeed tired."
You've exhausted all your magic from those things last night, and you're proud to be able to hold on without falling. ” After a pause, she smiled again: "If you're hungry, I'll let someone bring some food." ” Chen Daolin touched his stomach and said with a wry smile: "I'm really hungry." ” Carmen nodded, walked to the door and opened the door, whispered something outside, then turned back, walked straight to Chen Daolin, found a chair and sat down, and looked at Chen Daolin levelly.
Chen Daolin suddenly reacted, Carmen's outfit was a little different.
She had changed into a new outfit, the bright red robe she liked to wear the most.
And sitting closer, Chen Daolin smelled a faint fragrance on Carmen's body after bathing, and the tips of Carmen's hair were still a little damp, obviously during the time she was sleeping, she had actually taken a shower and changed her clothes.
This is the Imperial Palace Carmen noticed Chen Daolin's eyes, shook his head and smiled: "I have some personal relations with the queen, and I occasionally come to the palace to accompany her for a few days, so she has my clothes there, but you fought in the middle of the night last night, do you want someone to arrange for you?"
Chen Daolin laughed: "The so-called stinky man stinky man, you don't need to take a bath, stinky man, it's nothing to stink." ” After a pause, he looked at Carmen seriously: "Dean, have you seen Your Majesty?"
Carmen's brow furrowed, then let go again, and sighed, "I've seen it." ” Looking at Carmen's expression, it was a little strange, as if he was a little stunned, which couldn't help but make Chen Daolin a little surprised.
Carmen then smiled slightly: "You must have a lot of questions in your heart, I think, what you are most curious about now must be to know, about my assassination, why did you break into the palace overnight to tell the emperor" Chen Daolin grabbed his hair: "You are the dean of the academy, and if a person of your identity is assassinated, you naturally have to hurry up and report to the emperor, so" "I can't say it."
Carmen shook her head: "No wonder, this is your advantage, young people know to keep their mouth shut and not talk nonsense, this is an advantage, I won't blame you."
However, now there are only you and me here, and if you have anything to say, you might as well not hide it from me. ” Chen Daolin was stunned for a moment before he said, "Dean I" "You saved my life last night, so I don't have to hide this from you."
Carmen smiled faintly: "Actually, in terms of Prince Shiloh's attitude, you should have guessed a few points."
He can't wait to stay out of it, just because, I am afraid that my assassination will have something to do with the position of the crown prince."
Chen Daolin's heart froze, he couldn't imagine that Carmen would take the initiative to say these words to himself.
"Regarding the matter of establishing a prince, all the forces in the empire are in a hurry, but although everyone is anxious, they must also be restrained, at most, they are suggesting that the emperor should establish a prince as soon as possible.
But few people dare to speak out about who they are.
After all, this is a royal matter, and this issue is too sensitive.
Darling, do you know why?"
Chen Daolin thought for a while and said, "I think it's probably because this establishment is an abnormal event.
If it is a normal prince, and the person who establishes the prince is the son of the emperor, it is normal for the ministers below to suggest who to appoint and who not to appoint.
But now that the emperor has no children, several candidates are either his younger brother or his distant relatives, if I were the emperor, I am afraid that these people are not the proud candidates in their hearts.
Who doesn't want to pass on the family business to his son's own son, who is willing to give away the country that he has worked hard to maintain for decades to outsiders So, the emperor's current mind must be extremely complicated, if there are too many suggestions at this moment, and if you openly write a letter suggesting that the emperor set up who does not stand water, it will cause the emperor's great disgust: I am not dead yet, you are so enthusiastic to help and want to give my country to outsiders Therefore, now the ministers of the empire can only write a letter to suggest that the emperor establish a prince, but they dare not suggest who the emperor should appoint.
It is suggested that the crown prince can boast that he is dedicated to the country, after all, the crown prince is the foundation of a country, and if he does not establish a prince, he will shake the foundation of his rule and make the hearts of the people below unstable. suggested that he was only thinking about the country and doing his duty as a courtier.
Whoever can be set up or not, that is the emperor's power, if the courtiers say too much, they will show their selfishness. ” When Chen Daolin said this, Carmen nodded and glanced at Chen Daolin deeply: "I didn't expect that there is some truth in what you said, you still have some political opinions and stories and the like, I don't know how much you have read, even if you have never eaten pork, you have seen pigs run."
But then Carmen smiled faintly: "Most people don't dare to talk about who to set up."
But the emperor always has to ask the opinions of several people about the matter of the emperor's establishment of the prince.
Others dare not comment on this matter, but there are a few people's opinions, but His Majesty must seriously consider them. ” Chen Daolin nodded: "I understand."
Your Majesty must also refer to the attitudes of several of the most important big men in the empire, such as the prime minister, the army boss, the leader of the nobles, or something."
"I mean, I'm among them."
Carmen said lightly.
"Uh-uh" Chen Daolin was really stunned at this time.
The emperor was to refer to Carmen's opinion This seems a little strange.
Who is Carmen, she is the number one person in the Academy of Magic.
Yes, that's right.
The branch dean of the Academy of Magic, even if he looks at the empire, is a great man, the leader of the magic world, the leader of the academy, and a powerful magician himself, such a person can cause an earthquake by stomping his feet.
But it seems that magicians never get involved in such "national affairs" as the royal crown prince.
Shouldn't magicians not participate in secular affairs and fight for power, not to mention that Carmen, who has an indifferent surname, how could she participate in the establishment of the royal crown and why would the emperor have to pay attention to her opinion Carmen looked at Chen Daolin and said lightly: "First, I am the Head of Hogwarts.

As you know, the Academy of Magic has never had a dean, and according to the imperial decree, the dean of the Academy of Magic can only be His Majesty the Emperor himself, so the future emperor will also take over the title of dean of the academy.
Moreover, the Academy of Magic has always been an important piece of the puzzle of royal forces, and if the future new emperor wants to continue to firmly envelop the Academy of Magic, and want to make the Academy of Magic respect his orders, then the premise is that the candidate for this emperor cannot be hated by the Academy of Magic.
I'm the Head of Hogwarts Branches, and I represent the attitude of the Hogwarts Branches, and the Hogwarts Branches almost represent the attitude of the Wizardry Academy.
Not to mention that I was able to become the head of the Hogwarts Branch, which must have the full support of the Tulip family.
So my attitude is likely to vaguely represent the views of some tulip families. ” "Hmm."
Chen Daolin nodded and said this, but there is some truth.
"However, if it is said that the emperor is a prince, it is not necessarily true that he should pay attention to the opinions of the magic academy because of this."
Carmen said lightly: "The royal prince, the involvement is too big, it is related to the future of a country, in terms of the magic academy, in fact, it will never take the initiative to participate in it, and any candidate, the magic academy never expresses its opinions, so" Chen Daolin smiled bitterly: "You confused me, in the end" "The Academy of Magic never expressed its opinion in the past, because the previous generations of imperial power were all passed from father to son, and they were passed on normally.
But this time it is different, it is passed from brother to brother, or even to distant relatives.
At this time, the Academy of Magic will not be as unoriented as usual.
The candidate for the new emperor will naturally have the difference of intimacy and estrangement.
Carmen whispered, "I'm not afraid to tell you that until last night, I had always been interested in Prince Shiloh." ” "Ahh :
