Is this the descendant of the famous Tianren craftsman Kamado Shuiye who refined the meteorite iron to create twelve supreme sharp swords?
Higashinohara thought to himself after learning the name.
In the afternoon when he returned to Stafford Private Great Sword Academy last weekend, Higashinohara received the address from Dusk, his former partner in "Breaking Dawn", but did not choose to leave immediately for the location sent by him.
It's not that he doesn't trust Dusk.
The main reason is that the place where the dusk happened was a port in Upper Kingbottom County.
——Although it is not far from Mezi House in the United Tagos Republic, you don’t even need to take a plane. You only need to take a cross-border express bus and then take a ferry to cross the Bama Canal.
But that place is already the land of Shangjing Tianren, which makes Higashinohara feel like stepping on the enemy's doorstep. Naturally, he must be fully prepared before setting off.
Therefore, during this week, in addition to attending lectures normally and going to the library to look for theoretical works on "Time and Speed" and studying them carefully to find his own [Rules] inspiration, Higashinohara spent most of his time after returning to the dormitory searching for Barton.
County-related information.
Until today, a week later, I have to wait for another weekend, which is April 17th.
Higashinohara was finally ready, and decided to leave for Barton County to find the descendants of Kamado Tiehe, so that he could repair and reforge his own [Big Chidori Jumonji] and [Phoenix Twin Blades].
After getting up early in the morning and finishing the daily morning training in the academy, Higashinohara returned to his dormitory after breakfast.
Before he left, he glanced at the other exchange students who had almost completely integrated into the life and study rhythm of Stafford Private Great Sword Academy after more than a week.
Maybe it was influenced by Si Boyou, the "King of Forces" among the exchange students this time.
These people have been working hard to improve their ability levels these days, and at the same time, they have worked hard to squeeze into the three major organizations in the academy.
The team leader Natsuichi Kikuchi was very supportive after hearing this!
In his view, joining these student organizations can not only prove one's excellence, but also greatly expand one's personal connections. Making more friends with these young talents with great potential may lead to multiple paths in the future.
In contrast,
This week, Higashinohara, who often goes to the library in his spare time, seems to be a bit of an "honest bookworm".
Apart from going to the library, he didn't seem to care about anything else. What he said at lunch last time, "It's a coincidence that I also plan to join the Mithril Society" seemed to be gone.
You know, the Mithril Society is the oldest and oldest organization in Stafford Private Great Sword Academy.
Freshmen who want to apply to join the Mithril Club every academic year can queue from the activity hall to the door of the restaurant. Other "membership activists" among the exchange students have also queued up in the past few days.
What about Higashinohara?
Three o'clock and one line in the dormitory, classroom and restaurant.
Shouldn't he wait for someone to take the initiative to invite him?
Regarding this, Siba Yu, who had been competing with Higashinohara to see who could get the membership application permission of the "Mithril Club" since he failed to fill the cup in the restaurant that day, couldn't help but shook his head and snickered secretly when he saw this.
.
With his "intelligence".
If you use your brain a little, you can almost think of the reason why Higashinohara was so "unable to recover".
Needless to say, I must have been rejected by the "Mithril Society" and my application for membership was rejected. I didn't want to go through it to save my face, so I pretended to be so unconcerned.
He has seen too many such people in his student life from childhood to adulthood.
What a pity.
I thought he was someone who could become a "rival".
Instead, Sipo Youdai ran even harder outside the Mithril Club, holding back the energy in his heart to pass the application as soon as possible so that he could show off his skills in the dormitory again.
no way.
Drinking is a necessity for people like him. After holding it in for a week, my whole body felt uncomfortable, which was even more painful than quitting porn.
But it’s not just Shiba Yu.
Regarding Higashinohara's behavior of spending all his time after school in the dormitory and library,
The team leader Natsu Kikuchi shook his head secretly when he saw it, wanting to say something but he hesitated.
——He really wanted to tell Higashinohara that he could just listen to the theoretical knowledge about abilities like [Introduction to Speed] in the library during class on weekdays.
It's like the skill of slaying a dragon.
I can't say it's completely useless.
But it's of little use.
Just like the theoretical knowledge learned in school and the practical needs of entering society.
[Introduction to Speed] This kind of 'dragon-slaying skill' is not something they need to specialize in at their age and strength. The most important thing at this age is to down-to-earthly improve their abilities.
Even if you join an excellent social organization and make friends with young talents from Staffordshire, it will be much more useful than spending time in the library studying those "big and empty" theoretical overviews.
In the past few days, he has been thinking about finding time to have a heart-to-heart talk with Higashinohara - this is also his responsibility as the leader of the exchange student program at Takehara Minami Private Academy.
Of course, if Kikuchi Kazuichi knew that Higashinohara's current strength was at the stage where he needed to grab some inspiration from these "dragon-slaying skills".
Not only that, this honest man who has been silent for a week has even "made friends" (embraced) the third adjudicator of the Judgment Department, Empress Dorothy Alita, in terms of network expansion.
I don’t know how wonderful his face should be.
But this scene never came.
Early in the morning on weekends,
After finishing breakfast in the restaurant, Natsu Kikuchi wandered towards the boys' dormitory. Along the way, various admonitions about how to use emotion and reason were running through his mind.
Think of the emotional place,
His face showed a smile of satisfaction like a wild chrysanthemum, and he admired himself even more.
——It is not easy for the teachers to lead the team. It is not easy for them to have weekend breaks and they have to provide psychological counseling to the students.
As a result, when he walked into the boys' dormitory, he found that Higashinohara's bed was empty.
Did you go to the library so early?
When he asked the eyed man on the bed next to him carefully, Kikuchi Xiaichi was immediately speechless.
The boy actually said he was going for an outing.
I won't be back today or tomorrow. If I can't come back the day after tomorrow, I might have to trouble him, the leading teacher, to ask for leave from the teaching office.
The corners of Natsuichi Kikuchi's mouth couldn't help but twitch.
Is this guy here to enjoy a trip at public expense?
On a long-distance cross-border bus.
The vehicle gradually drove out of the urban area of Meiji Prefecture along the express inner ring. The buildings on both sides of the road in the view outside the window gradually changed from high-rise buildings to low-rise houses.
It only took less than an hour to reach the endless fields and woods.
Sitting in the second-to-last row of the bus by the window, Higashinohara lowered his head, took out his cell phone and checked the time.
As expected, it will take another half an hour to arrive at Mezi Port on the north side of the Bama Canal.
——This long-distance bus will take a ferry across the river from there. When the wheels touch the ground again, it will be the land of Shangjing Tianren.
At this time, Higashinohara suddenly heard a discussion coming from the front without too much effort in lowering the voice.
A voice said teasingly:
"Tsk tsk, historically the south of the Bama Canal was the 'Nantagos', but now across a river it has become the land of another species. I don't know what these people in the Tagos go through every time they take a ferry to cross the river.
What does it feel like."
"How else can I feel?"
A young man on the side immediately joked, "I wish my ancestors were not born in Nantagos, otherwise, I would be a 'high class' person in Beijing today."
"That's right. Although Tagos' green card is difficult to obtain, the household registration in Beijing is much rarer." Another person interjected and teased with a smile.
After saying this, several young people looked at each other and burst into laughter.
A local Tagos man sitting nearby felt uncomfortable, but after taking a look at the school uniforms and school badges on the young people, he wisely chose to shut up and put on his headphones.
If the ears are not listening, the heart is not bothered.
It's one thing to have less to worry about when you're away from home, not to mention that this group of people is not easy to mess with.
Higashinohara, who was in the second-to-last row by the window, glanced forward after hearing this.
These young people got on the bus later. He didn't pay much attention to them before, but now he was slightly startled when he glanced at them.
A student at Stafford's Private Great Sword Academy?
Are they going to Kingbarton County too?
At this time, the taciturn, handsome, brown-black haired man who was full of the aura of an aristocratic man who had been keeping his eyes closed among the young men suddenly opened his eyes, and glanced at several people in his chestnut eyes.
He didn't say anything.
But just this one glance,
However, the young people around him who were laughing and joking just now all fell silent.
That's not exactly fear.
It’s more of a respect that comes from the heart.
Higashinohara stared at the other person's side face twice. Before the other person felt his gaze turning around, he had already retracted his gaze and looked out the window again.
But at the same time, he had already remembered who that noble young man was.
Kairutu von Caucasus.
It is said that he is from a noble family from the Saint Malo Empire, which is on par with the United Tagos Republic.
It is not as good as the Gaia Solomon family, the president of the brotherhood, but it is also a very wealthy and noble family.
Of course, what made Higashinohara recognize him at this moment was not the noble man's background, but his status in the Stafford Private Great Sword Academy.
Speaking of which, Higashino's time at Stafford Private Great Sword Academy was short.
But among the three student organizations in the academy, he had already met Gaia Solomon, the president of the fraternity, on the day he arrived at the school, and met Bernice, the president of the student union, the next day.
The remaining president of the Mithril Society with the longest history is the young man sitting in the seat in front of him.
Thinking of this,
Higashinohara felt slightly confused.
The student organizations at Staffordshire Private University are all "inhumane". Even the event venues are directly in the same building. Even if they want to go to Barton County, how can they squeeze into this long-distance cross-border bus like themselves and take it?
Ferry across the river?
Thinking of his original intention of joining the "Mithril Society",
It's because I heard that among the three major organizations in the academy, only the execution team of the "Mithril Club" will take on some social field work on weekends and days off.
——At that time, he planned to fish in troubled waters and brush up attribute points with the field staff, but he was too busy this week and did not go to the "Mithril Club".
But wait
A look of thoughtfulness suddenly appeared on Higashinohara's face. Could it be that these people are members of the Mithril Society's execution team, and they are going to Barton County for field work this time?
Just as Higashinohara, who was sitting by the window in the back seat, was pondering in his heart, Kairutu, who was sitting in the front seat, seemed to realize something, and couldn't help but glance sideways and behind him.
"President, what's wrong?" Feilina, the vice-captain of the executive team sitting nearby, couldn't help but ask.
Kairutu looked away, shook his head and said, "Nothing, let them keep their mouths shut on the road, don't forget, our field mission this time must be carried out in secret."
"Yes, President."
Feilina nodded, looked around and hesitated for a moment, then lowered her voice and asked with a frown:
"The mission assigned to us by the Eagle Bureau this time seems to be a little less clear-cut than in the past. We are asked to go to Barton County to investigate the recent changes there, and we are not clear about what the changes are. The scope of this investigation seems to be too large."
Hearing Feilina's complaint, Kairutu couldn't help but be silent for two seconds, and suddenly said with a slight mocking tone:
"The Eagle Bureau seems to have offended the Adjudication Division because of 'certain things' recently. It is very busy. All the ability agents from all over the country are mobilizing support towards Meiji Mansion. How can they spare the time to take care of the affairs of Barton County on Jingtianren's territory?"
, that’s why this investigation was assigned to us.”
Feilina was stunned when she heard this, remembering that over the past week, she could see the busy figures of the agents in black in various traffic areas in the city, their feet were so busy that they never touched the ground.
——You know, in the past, this kind of manhunt on the streets was done by police detectives, but it was rarely seen on these idle people who only sit in the office and drink coffee.
Thinking of this, Feilina felt a little depressed and helpless. If it weren't for the Eagle Bureau in Tagos, it would be the best place for "academic" ability users like them to find jobs after graduation.
Those who have performed well in the field of the Mithril Society's executive team will be head and shoulders above others when they enter the Condor Bureau?
She really didn't want to do a field mission like this that was mindless and didn't even have any clues.
Kailutu seemed to have guessed what Feilina was thinking, and said expressionlessly:
"Just make peace with what you've come to and don't think too much. Our investigation time in Barton County is only three days. If nothing is found, the Eagle Bureau will probably not have any objections."
That's hard to say.
Feilina complained in her heart.
At the same time, she was also secretly wondering in her heart what exactly were the 'certain things' that Kairutu just said?
The people from the Shenying Bureau actually spent this week digging into the Meiji Mansion like crazy, as if they couldn't wait to prove their innocence.
Does anyone still dare to frame the Shenying Bureau?
Feilina was amused by this idea in her mind.
The Condor Bureau is to Tagos as the Adjudication Division is to the World Government.
The capable agents there are only responsible to the current president of Tagos, and everyone knows the politicians, congressmen, and wealthy businessmen. They are afraid that one day the other party will break in, take out a search warrant, and confiscate the house.
Who dares to frame the Shenying Bureau?
Half an hour passed quickly.
The long-distance cross-border bus arrived at the Meiji Port Ferry Terminal along the Bama Canal. It followed the traffic flow and queued up to buy a ticket. After waiting for a huge ferry to dock, it followed the traffic flow and drove onto the deck.
At this time, the driver of the bus in front turned off the engine and pulled up the handbrake to play a mobile game. The canal water splashed against the ferry boat, causing everyone in the car to sway slightly.
Higashinohara looked through the car window,
I took a look at the Bama River, which has huge waves rushing into the West Sea and has nurtured Tagos for thousands of years.
Today, this inland river divides the two sides into two completely different worlds.
For a moment, his eyes lowered slightly, and the thoughts in his mind became a little confusing.
After waiting quietly for a while,
The bus body suddenly shook, and the docked ferry slowly sailed away from the land of the United Tagos Republic, heading towards a completely different "new world".
It’s almost the end of the month. Please give me a ticket. Lululu~
