The principal's office is a single tall tower building, four stories high, although it is night, the whole tower is brightly lit, the first three floors are locked, and the spiral staircase goes directly to the top floor, and there are two stone statues of people standing quietly upright at the door, and the spears in the hands of the stone statues glow with cold light.
Chen Yu was just about to push the door in, with a click, the stone statue suddenly waved his arm, and the two spears crossed in front of him, Chen Yu's face was a little embarrassed, and he hurriedly took a few steps back, and said to Xiao Lin: "Go in by yourself, the principal only wants to see you." ” Xiao Lin stepped forward, the spear in the stone statue's hand immediately returned to its position, and it opened automatically, Chen Yu poked his head behind him to try to see something from the outside, but the door was quickly closed again.
He was a little unwilling, but he also knew that if he dared to take a few more steps, these stone statues would definitely kill him without hesitation, and finally shook his head and left.
The office on the top floor was large, and it seemed that the headmaster had arrived earlier than scheduled, and when Xiao Lin entered, the headmaster was quietly staring at the wall with his hands behind his back, and there was a huge map hanging on the wall, which did not look like it was on earth.
The principal turned around, nodded at Xiao Lin, pointed to the sofas on both sides, and said in a flat tone, "Sit down." ” Xiao Lin sat very upright on the sofa with some restraint, observing the old man who held the greatest power of the Dawning Academy with the corner of his eyes, although the hair on his sideburns had turned white, and the wrinkles on his face were extremely deep, but he was in good spirits, and he couldn't see the slightest old age, and his white mage robe was still the same, but he didn't hold the staff at the opening ceremony in his hand.
The principal looked very casual, he didn't sit behind the desk, but sat on the sofa opposite Xiao Lin, took out a pack of cigarettes from his body, took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, handed it to Xiao Lin again, and said, "You can taste it, the tobacco grown in the new world has a unique taste." ” "I don't smoke."
Xiao Lin hurriedly waved his hand.
The headmaster nodded, snapping his fingers.
A small flame jumped out of his fingertips, lit it and took a few puffs, then he put his eyes back on Xiao Lin and said kindly: "You don't have to be nervous, I just came to you today to chat casually."
I've heard from Minister Song and the people of the investigation team about New Washington, but I'd like to hear it from you for myself.
Don't have any scruples, you just need to remember one thing.
I am the principal of Dawning Academy, and no matter what happens, I will always be your back. ” Xiao Lin stretched out his breath slightly, the atmosphere of the conversation was more relaxed than expected, and the headmaster didn't seem to be a very serious person, he pondered for a moment, sorted out his thoughts a little, and then slowly spoke, recounting what happened in the final place.
Although Xiao Lin and the principal are not familiar with each other.
Even though this was only the first time the two had met alone, the principal's sentence "I will always be your backing" made him feel inexplicably relieved.
This is a trustworthy old man, he subconsciously thinks so.
Shawlin spoke in great detail, including everything Asabano said, the unique way he fought Lilith, the mysterious tomb, and the various speculations about Ivanjevic.
The headmaster listened equally attentively.
Even the cigarette between his fingers burned to the cigarette butt without noticing, and he never said half a word since Xiao Lin opened his mouth, sometimes frowning, sometimes with a strange face.
It wasn't until Xiao Lin said that Harry deliberately detained him that the headmaster threw the cigarette butt into the ashtray and waved his hand, "Let's not mention the matter of returning to New Washington."
Let me ask you first, the high priest, did he really say that he had found a solution to us?
” Xiao Lin was stunned, the principal's focus was a little surprising, it was true that at that time, Asabano was clamoring for revenge against all the demons, that is, their colonists, but the kind of people who were full of hatred.
There is nothing to pay attention to when such wild talk is released.
In fact, even if the High Priest managed to come back alive and go into hiding, Xiao Lin didn't think that the half-dead guy could do much.
Including Lilith and Song Junlang, they all have similar views, more than a hundred years have passed since the destruction of the Thunder Kingdom, even if it is a local native, how many people still remember this last high priest?
There was a trace of worry between the headmaster's eyebrows, and he said slowly: "I don't know much about that high priest, and I can't be sure if his words are casual and crazy, but let's assume that if he really finds this solution, what will it be?"
” Xiao Lin pondered, "Assassinating the high-ranking personnel of the adjudicator?
Gather people to restore the rebellion?
Or simply carry out terrorist attacks, attacking everywhere in the colonies of the United States?
” If Asabano wants to take revenge, there are still many ways, but these are small fights after all, and sure enough, the headmaster also shook his head and said: "With the background of the Adjudicator Academy, these tricks will not have much effect, let alone completely destroy all of us." ” Xiao Lin was a little distressed and said, "Is there any other way to do it?"
He's not going to get his hands on a weapon of mass murder like a nuclear bomb, is he?
” The principal smiled: "A nuclear bomb can't be put in the Norma world, but the top spells in the new world are not inferior to nuclear bombs, and of course it's very difficult to learn, but even if that sacrifice has mastered any top spells, so what?"
” Xiao Lin was also stunned for a moment, and said casually: "Isn't that a big trouble?"
We're going to lose a lot of people if we're as powerful as a nuclear bomb, uh......"
Xiao Lin finally realized something, even if they were dead, so what?
As long as it is within the colony, as long as there is a resurrection tower, it can also be resurrected if it dies, and the high priest who exposed himself believes that there will be no chance to release the second spell.
Xiao Lin's face changed suddenly, he finally came to his senses, and exclaimed in a lost voice: "Headmaster, you mean, has the high priest mastered some kind of way to make us not resurrect!"
” The headmaster was noncommittal, and then asked, "You just mentioned that there is a building similar to the Resurrection Tower in the city that mimics the ancient royal capital in the Land of the End, can you describe its appearance in detail?"
” Xiao Lin was passing by in this regard just now, because he didn't think there was anything special about that tower, and he recalled it carefully, and described it while gesturing with both hands.
Compared with the resurrection tower, there is still a big difference, first of all, the tower is black, and the resurrection tower is silver, and the appearance is completely different, and the surface of the resurrection tower is very smooth without the slightest flaw, and the surface of that tower seems to be engraved with some kind of symbol similar to the inscription.
But after finishing speaking, the worry between the headmaster's eyebrows deepened, and the cigarette that was originally placed in his mouth was completely put down by him before it was lit, and after a long silence, he said slowly: "That tower is the earliest prototype of the resurrection tower, although there must still be big flaws, but there is no doubt that the high priest may have seen through the law of resurrection created by Ivanevich!"
