Chapter 208: Yurix's Distress
The first thing that caught Tolivia's eyes was a golden phantom curtain, a magical barrier that could block the detection of the order of the sky.
After passing through the curtain, you will see the entire underground city of the Island of the Dead.
The entire underground city's hollows are filled with cube-shaped or rectangular towers.
Tolivia was standing on a high platform. In this eternally dark underground world, the lights in the city seemed like an eternal starry sky.
"That's the experimental building where the Magic Group stores King-level monsters, right?"
Tolivia pointed to a huge square tower below and asked.
"Yes, Sir Chief...Do you need us to lead the way?"
A cat-type demihuman girl asked, bowing politely.
Tolivia straightened her wrinkled cuffs and said, "Lead the way... This place will be the last utopia in the world in the future. It is important to get familiar with it."
It was a peaceful and relaxing morning at Briffin College on April 10th.
Time between classes.
"...I'm really sorry for the trouble you caused me last time. Please help me get rid of their fake lawsuit."
Outside the corridor, Yurix said in a calm tone.
"It's quite troublesome," Isabella pouted and said, "Your strength has reached the elementary second level. From my point of view, it is indeed earned by your life! You also sold the lives of others. Don't you have any grudges in your heart?"
Julius looked aggrieved and sighed, "I was in a bad mood at the time and made a mistake."
"What are you talking about?"
Seventh Prince Xia An called out from behind Isabella.
"Still struggling with that night?"
Ulysses is silent...
The Seventh Prince Xia An patted Yuriks on the shoulder and said, "I heard that the Adventurer's Commune has isolated you permanently, and I also heard that you have no family left. What are your plans after this semester?"
"I will continue to finish my studies at Briffin College. My dream is to become a member of the Imperial Dragon Riders. Adventurer work is not the only high-income job."
Yurix's tone was slightly cheered up, but his mood was still a little sad.
"Can you support yourself?" Isabella asked doubtfully, "The tuition at Briffin College is very expensive!"
"Isabella, are you trying to give me charity?" Julius said with a wry smile, "I can save enough money for tuition by myself."
"But..." The seventh prince Xia An asked in a somewhat confused tone, "Do you know how difficult it is to become a member of the Imperial Dragon Riders? First you have to reach the level of an intermediate magician, and then you have to complete all the theoretical knowledge of the Imperial Military Academy, learn to control a red-flame flying dragon, and hold a 40-pound dragon-riding spear in one hand! You have to be at least 25 years old to have a chance to join the Dragon Riders!"
"As far as I know, the Dragon Riders only recruit 600 people every year! Every five years, the Empire expands a Dragon Riders Regiment. By the time you actually take office, you will be at least 28 years old."
"Your Highness the Seventh Prince... there's no need to mock me at this time," Yuriks said with another wry smile, "I know exactly where my future life will take me, and I will reach that peak!"
Isabella sighed and asked, "Urix, where does your income come from?"
Isabella talked to Julius to learn about his abilities, but due to his status as a student at Briffin College, even the Saint's Admiration Guild could hardly bring him any benefits.
Julius was a person who told some lies at the beginning, but later did some practical things of his own. Is he an out-and-out presentable person?
With Isabella's identity, having a little fan like him might just end up being just a classmate relationship.
Julius said with a determined look in his eyes, "I have joined the Dragon Seeker Chamber of Commerce as a dragon hunter. I only work on weekends and earn at least 60 silver coins a month. I only have one day off on Wednesday."
"Dragon Seekers Guild... Dragon Seekers," the Seventh Prince said, stroking his chin, "It's a high-risk job. Every mission is a gamble. Even if you are well prepared, you may still encounter a crisis that is difficult for you to resolve."
"I'm used to it. When I first started hunting monsters with them in the Adventurer's Commune, I fought against groups of intermediate monsters at least fifty or sixty times."
The Seventh Prince felt a little sympathy in his heart. Ever since he received the protection of the Holy Envoy, he would go to the palace backyard to confront intermediate monsters whenever he had free time. Over time, he got used to it just like Julius, but the word "used to" seemed a bit heavy.
"It's the magic cloak class again this afternoon," Isabella chatted, "Don't you think the magic cloaks that the academy provides to students are difficult to use?"
A hint of suspicion flashed across the seventh prince's eyes, and then he nodded as if he had realized something particularly important.
"The magic cloak of the academy..." Yuriks also complained, "It seems that its functions have been reduced. A real magic cloak consumes a lot of magic power, flies high, and has a fast speed."
"The academy does not allow students to use their own magic cloaks on the training ground. As a dragon hunter, the magic cloak is a magic tool that I must master..."
Half of the students in the class, including those from the neighboring class who were passing by, saw that the Seventh Prince of the Thunder Department Class 1 had a very good relationship with Isabella, and their eyes were filled with jealousy.
Compared with ordinary students, Isabella is difficult to approach. I always feel that Isabella's character is not like other girls of the same age.
And His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince, apart from stuffing love letters into his drawer, no girl in the class except Isabella dared to communicate with him face to face!
Not only the girls in the class, but also the girls in the senior grades wanted to pursue the Seventh Prince, but without exception they were rejected or treated coldly by the Seventh Prince.
Now the atmosphere in the academy has tacitly acknowledged the close relationship between Isabella and the Seventh Prince. Many people speculate that the relationship between them has not been made public?
In Isabella's eyes, she had cut off any emotional contact from the very beginning. As Isabella, she just wanted to be a very free person and enjoy life every day.
Now that she has the ability of the Twin Sirens to copy another self, let her play the role of the Saint!
At the same time, Wanjing Sky Island.
Selina was training twenty black crystal dragons behind the guild castle, teaching them how to fly.
After they master the ability to fly, they will be able to come out into the outside world and formally form the first dragon rider team of the Saint's Adoration Guild.
Selena has been teaching for three days, and these little guys, which are 13 meters long, are already able to fly independently.
The next step is to train them to obey commands.
Aliana, a cat-like girl, praised: "Selina, you have done a very realistic job! Did you learn this from your father, meow?"
Selina joked, "My family has been in this business for hundreds of years. I've been exposed to dragon training since before I could even speak! Hahaha, now that I think about it, the first words I said were the dragon training commands. My father was really scared at the time!"
"Great job, meow!" Aliana clapped her hands and said, "The guild has some troublesome work to do recently! The plantations that we girls deal with every day on Wanjingkong Island, such as collecting and counting monster materials, will soon be over, meow."
Aliana covered her face with her left hand: "President Lingyi will discuss with Lady Saint in a few days whether to send some trustworthy people to Wanjing Sky Island, meow!"
"At that time, only Serena was still busy on Wanjing Sky Island! Meow?"
Selina stroked the nose of a young black crystal dragon and said, "Because my ability is extraordinary! Besides me, who else in the guild can be a dragon trainer? However, dragon training is still quite fun. A few days ago, the guild bought a black crystal dragon egg from Oberic..."
"Speaking of hard work, it seems that Trikinana is the hardest-working one, right? She has to hatch so many dragon eggs and be careful not to crush them."
In the castle, the sound of bells rang, and it was time for the Thirteen Holy Envoys to hold a meeting.
The meeting was still about allocating work content, with everyone doing their own job. Finally, it was emphasized that the Saint's Admiration Guild needed to recruit more fighters.
Ariana, the guild's scout, raised her cat's tail in excitement.
However, whether or not to stay and work for the Saint Maiden Guild is ultimately decided by Trikinana. However, the cases of eating the selected candidates are quite rare recently. Maybe they are undercover agents sent by organizations in other empires to the Saint Maiden Guild, and finally become her snacks. (This does not refer specifically to the Magic Group, but also to intelligence organizations in several other countries, or other civilian organizations.)
