"Junior Dolan, you are really diligent, and I meet you here again." A gentle voice interrupted Lando's thinking.
Lando turned around and saw that it was senior Laurel.
"Senior, you also know that my basic skills are very poor. If I want to keep up with the progress, I have to work harder." Lando said slightly excitedly.
Laurel showed admiration upon hearing this, as if he appreciated his junior's progress.
"Then you should also pay attention to your time. If you miss the teacher's class tomorrow because you stay up late, it will be a waste."
Only then did Lando suddenly notice that it was getting very late outside. He then showed an open-minded expression and said goodbye to Senior Laurel before leaving.
Laurel looked at Lando's leaving back, the gentle smile on his face remained unchanged, but his eyes became a little darker.
By the time Lando returned to the dormitory, it was already very late. The lights in several dormitories nearby had been turned off. It was not clear whether he had gone to sleep or gone out to wander.
The dormitory is a single room. After all, the person who can awaken must have at least one parent who is strong and either rich or noble. At the worst, he is a genius like Lando. Although he is disguised, the treatment in the academy must be
It needs to be filled up.
When the day came, Lando continued his usual routine, preparing to go to the library after class, but today's script was obviously different.
Three noble students blocked Lando in the classroom, and the leader showed a kind fake smile.
"Hello, classmate Dolan, my name is Nicota Torrance. You have been in school for so long and we have not gotten close to each other. This is my fault. Please forgive me!"
Looking at Nikta who was smiling in front of him, and looking at the two aristocratic students behind him who had sneers on their lips, Lando thought to himself.
He had already expected that someone would come to cause trouble, and this was even what he expected.
Lando pretended to be a little nervous and asked: "Classmate Nikta, you...do you have anything to do with me?"
Nikita's smile was even brighter and she said: "Classmate Dolan, you just arrived at Central College and you don't understand the rules here. In fact, everyone in our awakening class has a quota to enter the Cave of the Dead once a year, but you have to know that there
There are many dangers. Once a newcomer like you who knows nothing goes in, he is very likely to encounter fatal danger, so I was thinking, why not give that spot to my brother and me this year, so that you don’t have to go
It’s a risk, don’t you think?!”
The Cave of the Undead is a special area established by the Imperial Court. Despite its ghastly name, it is truly a treasure. It not only contains rare and powerful undead creatures, but also even rarer mutated undead spirits. Because of the awakening
Those who have the innate ability to contract undead creatures, and entering the quota is one of the most important basic benefits prepared by the Central Academy for the awakened ones.
Seeing that the people in front of him were trying to defraud him of his benefits with empty words, even though all this was in line with Lando's wishes, it also made him very angry. He originally thought that these people would at least give some benefits in exchange for this quota.
Yes, but this is fine now.
Lando said with some embarrassment: "But I heard that the Cave of the Dead is a benefit given to us by the academy."
Nikita's expression became a little cold, and she said meaningfully: "This is indeed a benefit, but you have to live to enjoy it!"
Nikita stepped forward and patted Lando on the shoulder, her tone returned to gentleness again: "Sometimes, only by recognizing your identity and making the right choices can you have a better future. Don't you want to be friends with us?
Think about it carefully and give me your answer tomorrow."
After saying that, the three of them walked away in a swaggering manner.
After the three of them left, Lando slowly put away his trembling expression, pondered for a moment, and after making sure he didn't miss anything, he went to the library to read as usual.
Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye it was evening. Lando finally waited until Laurel came to the library to read. This was also the result of his observations during this time.
Laurel was about to go to the upper floors of the library when he suddenly noticed that the junior Dolan whom he had been observing for a long time was also in the library. Of course, this kind of thing has been happening all this time, but today this junior seems to be in a bad state.
Something was wrong. I was flipping over and over with a book in my hand, my eyes were dull, and I looked very worried.
He thought for a while and walked forward and asked: "Junior Dolan, you seem to have something on your mind. Can you tell me something? Maybe I can help you."
The eyes of the junior student in front of him lit up, and he opened his mouth as if to say something, but after hesitating for a while, he said dejectedly: "No, senior, it's okay!"
Laurel stood opposite his junior and said gently: "You can completely trust me, I will definitely help you!"
Hearing this sentence, Lando smiled secretly in his heart. The effort he had spent on establishing a character profile for this senior during this period was indeed not in vain. Lando could feel that the other party had the intention of recruiting him, so he did so much just to get him to do something.
Be kind to himself, and then he can board the opponent's chariot naturally. After all, a good hunter often appears in the image of his prey.
Of course, the degree of caution in this must be grasped. After all, Laurel is not a fool. If Lando shows too much obviousness and Laurel discovers that something is wrong, the 'infiltration' plan may not work.
Lando looked moved, and finally said firmly: "No, senior, I admire you very much. Your achievements today are hard-earned, and I can't cause you any trouble!"
Lando was actually a little nervous at this time, fearing that he would be blinded if he said, "Shall I leave then?" after playing the part of Laurel.
Fortunately, everything went as Lando expected. Laurel looked at him with encouraging eyes and said: "Don't worry, I told you, I will help you."
In fact, Rohrer could somewhat guess Lando's 'troubles', but it didn't matter even if the other party said something that he couldn't solve, he could just find a reason to reject it when the time came.
Lando shuddered in his heart, feeling that this conversation was a bit greasy, so he decided to get to the point quickly. Then he told Laurel what happened today, and finally added with some uneasiness, he didn't want to
Give up your spot.
Laurel felt relaxed, but his face gradually darkened. He waited for a long time before saying: "This Nicka Torrance has an extraordinary identity. Her father is the powerful Earl of the Imperial Court, and he is also a seven-year-old.
A super wizard, there are even rumors that there is a legendary powerful person alive in their family, this matter is not easy to handle!"
Lando's face turned pale, and he remained silent full of frustration. Of course, the main reason for not speaking was because he felt that the acting was enough for this purpose, and all he needed to do next was to watch Laurel's performance.
Sure enough, Laurel changed the topic and said, "But don't worry, since I said I would help you, I will never break my promise!"
