Although this year's freshmen have just arrived across the border from Emenas, grades 2-5 in the school have officially started, and today is the first day.
Lorraine Hill stood in front of the dressing table and arranged her clothes. This morning was the opening ceremony of Temple Academy, and she also changed into the corresponding school uniform. If the Walled City Academy mostly uses red and green as the main colors, then Temple Academy The main colors are black and white.
Luo Xier is wearing a black and white dress today. This dress is divided into two parts, the inside and the outside. The inside is a normal tight-fitting top with a knee-length skirt. It is mainly black, with only the cuffs, shoulders, neck, and skirt. The edge is made of white fabric.
The outside is a set of white robes with a hood, wide cuffs, and the bottom of the robe close to the ground, which covers the figure very tightly. There are complicated and gorgeous golden patterns on the two long sides from the skirt of the robe to the bottom of the body. , the overall feeling is more solemn and solemn, like the clothes worn by the ceremony leader. In fact, most of the students who graduate from the temple will become clergy.
After putting on the clothes, the hood was not pulled up for the time being, and the silver hair was draped on the gold-rimmed white robe. Luo Xier simply tied up her hair with a hair tie, rolled it up behind her head, and then clipped the butterfly hairpin. Only then did he go out.
On the way to the central square of the college, you can see many freshmen wearing white or black robes. They are students of the Angel sequence and the Necromancer sequence respectively.
Temple College is not as poetic and picturesque as the Walled City College, full of natural grace, nor is it like the mountaintop towers filled with cold winds like the Tower College, nor is it full of military discipline like the Bridge Pier College. The fireworks and distant atmosphere are similar to ordinary people's lives.
Since there is a small town with tens of thousands of people to the west of Temple College, you can often see school employees coming in and out of the gate. Most of them are not extraordinary people, but just ordinary people living here.
Occasionally, some carriages drive through the streets in the college, loaded with a lot of food and goods. The wheels of the carriages run over the stone streets, making a squeaking sound. These goods come from merchant ships from the east and west, and they are unloaded at the port of Qiao Pier College, and then partially It will be brought to the small town here to supply people's daily needs.
Climb up to the highest Star Cathedral in the college and stand on the steps in front of the church, you can easily overlook the entire college.
A long high wall separates the inside of the college from the town outside the wall. You can see the smoke in the town, people coming and going, many people selling things in various stalls and shops, and some of the people buying are students. There are tourists coming here, as well as some minor nobles.
There is a long queue in front of the gate entering the college. Most of them are ordinary people who work in the school and are passing the inspection in an orderly manner. The inspector will review the badges on their chests and simply register the badges. 's number.
Inside the high wall are students coming and going. They wear black and white robes. Not many people talk to each other, and most of them are relatively quiet.
Luo Xier walked into the interior of Xinghui Cathedral. At this time, some students had already arrived. They were sitting on the benches in the church in twos and threes. Some were talking in low voices, and some seemed to have known each other before. They were surprised by each other and I came to the same college.
The interior of the church is very spacious. Even if the ground is full of people, it can only fill one-tenth of the space. The high dome makes people feel extremely empty. The morning sunlight shines in through the colored glass windows, forming mottled patterns on the ground and rows of chairs. The seven-color sparse shadow.
This was also Rochiel's first time entering the cathedral inside Emenas. She also looked around with a little curiosity. The ground was made of fine blue-gray marble, and the walls and internal stone pillars showed a light golden color.
They are exquisite murals that tell the scenes of chaos and calamity wars. Among them are angels, demons, elves, dragons, knights, mages, skeletons, water monsters, etc. The enemies are twisted shadows, which turn into various shapes.
Fighting in a strange way, and the battlefields are in various places.
The scene on one of the murals is very vivid. It is a majestic and straight bridge spanning both sides of the river on the thickly painted dark blue paint. In the lower left corner of the bridge is a crowd of flesh and blood figures. They seem to be wailing and crowded in disorder.
They rushed towards the side of the bridge. In the upper right corner of the bridge were knights standing closely together, holding spears and shields and wearing exquisite armor. The sky seemed to be shrouded in black clouds, with only a small amount of light shining through the gaps.
, an angel with golden-red wings flew above the knights, the cross sword in his hand was burning with flames and was ready to be swung down, as if he was shouting something.
On the tower at the head of the bridge, an elf with pointed ears was drawing a bow and arrow, and the emerald green light condensed on the arrow. In the river on the lower right, a huge octopus surfaced, with a half-man and half-man sitting on its head.
The fish diva seems to be singing, and in the upper left corner of the picture, there are a few misty black spots. Judging from its wings, it seems to be a dragon.
This painting should be about the famous 'Battle of the Bridge' in Chaos Disaster, Lorraine Hill guessed, but what's a bit strange is that the bridge is different from the current one. There are not a few stone pillars at the bottom of the bridge.
Instead, densely erected fences seemed to be intended to isolate and filter the river. Only the middle part was very tall and could be pulled up to allow river boats to pass.
Walking to the seat of her class, Lorraine Hill sat down quietly and waited. Due to her status, she didn't know many people, and only a few classmates from Class 1 or 2 would say hello when they saw her.
About half an hour passed, and the second-year freshmen gradually arrived and slowly filled the seats in the front row. On the left were uniform white gold-edged robes, and on the right were uniform black silver-edged robes. Originally there were more than 1,200 people.
There are about 300 freshmen assigned to the Temple Academy, neither more nor less. Among them, there are close to 200 in the Angel Sequence, and perhaps less than 100 in the Necromancer Sequence.
As the appointed time arrived, some instructors from the Temple Academy also entered the room one after another and sat in the vacant seats at the back on the right.
First, the dean, wearing a close-fitting white robe and a tall crown hat, ascended the podium.
"Welcome to the Temple of Contemplation."
There was a burst of applause from the audience. The dean looked like he was in his thirties. He spoke in an unpleasant tone, but made people feel very comfortable and his words were clear.
"Presumably many students have learned about the styles of each college when choosing a college. Not to mention other colleges, the style and philosophy of Temple College is to pursue peace of mind and peace, so that everyone can accept the real world more candidly.
, this imperfect world.”
"I dare not say that you will be rich and wealthy after graduation, but at least on the road of life, you will have less regrets and more peace of mind."
"Life and death, the most immutable and absolutely equal things in this world, will unfold one by one in front of you."
"In the journey of life, sometimes people get too entangled with their own emotions and fall into all kinds of confusion and confusion. I believe everyone will have this experience to a greater or lesser extent."
"When you are hesitant and confused, you can raise your head a little, look at the people and things around you, and then look at the lives and experiences recorded in the cemetery."
"Many things do not appear for the first time, but are performed repeatedly in the world, such as birth, growth, marriage, choices, tribulations, achievements, aging, death, etc. When you extend your gaze to the arc of life, you will find many troubles
It’s not worth mentioning, but your life is not just your life, but the world, the result of the interaction of different lives in this world.”
"When we slowly see the world clearly, I think everyone will have less useless worries and anxieties, and instead will face it more calmly and work hard calmly."
"In this way, when I am old and approaching death, I can say without regret that this is my experience, my choice, and my life."
