Chapter 145 Mysterious Bracelet
The next day, Xingluo woke up in the dormitory. The familiar scenes around him made him breathe a sigh of relief. It seemed that everything last night was just a dream. He didn't know what happened in the end, nor did he know why he appeared here. Even his memory of last night was a little fuzzy. It seemed that everything was a very real dream. He couldn't tell whether it was a dream or reality. Only the blood flow slowed down.
When he went to the office to find Linglan again, he was told that Linglan had submitted her resignation letter. Xingluo frowned slightly. He wanted to find Linglan to ask her what happened last night and why his memory was so vague. Logically speaking, alcohol should not have such a big impact on his body. Something else must have happened. This feeling of not being in control made him a little annoyed.
After a night of revelry, everyone got up very late. Now Xingluo has graduated. From then on, he left the protection of Luoshen Academy and had to face the next danger alone. Just when he was thinking about this, a familiar voice sounded from behind.
"Xingluo, why did you suddenly run away? Tiffany was looking for you for a long time yesterday." Atlantis looked at him teasingly, and when he saw Xingluo looking at him blankly, he sighed and patted his shoulder, a smell of alcohol spurted out, and it was obvious that Atlantis had drunk a lot last night.
Mo and Ying also came out, seemingly having just finished their exercise. "Xingluo, everyone was looking for you for a long time yesterday. Did you go on a tryst with that little girl?"
Xing Luo was slightly startled when he heard this, but fortunately, he was too thick-skinned and didn't notice anything unusual. However, he quickly changed the subject, "Where are you going after graduation?"
"Of course I'll continue to stay in the mercenary group~~~" Tiffany also jumped out from the side at this time, glared at Xingluo in annoyance, and then said playfully.
"Me too."
"We are not the first heirs of the family. Being able to stay in the S-level mercenary group in the future is already the best choice. Haha, Captain Xingluo, you won't abandon us who are just eating for free, right?" Even Ying, who was always silent, started a joke. After graduation, their relationship did not seem to become distant, but closer.
Xingluo secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The sadness of graduation was also diluted a lot by such a harmonious atmosphere. After chatting for a while, he hurriedly said goodbye, "I don't know where to go, you are in such a hurry."
Tiffany came back to her senses after watching Xingluo's figure disappear into the woods.
An elderly man wearing half-crescent glasses was mixing an unknown potion with his pale and slender hands. Xingluo sat aside and did not dare to disturb him. When the old man's potion changed from turbid color to clear and transparent liquid, he let out a long sigh, then put the potion aside and looked towards Xingluo.
The azure blue eyes behind the half-crescent crystal lenses were very beautiful. Xingluo could not help but be deeply immersed in these eyes. At this moment, Xingluo's heart and soul trembled violently, and this feeling quietly retreated. A flash of surprise flashed in the dean's eyes, "Xingluo, I have something to say to you when I asked you to come here today. Listen to me first. If you have any questions, ask after I finish speaking."
Xingluo nodded, and the old dean leaned back in the chair. He looked more dignified and his expression became more solemn.
Xingluo couldn't help but lower her breathing, and sometimes even forgot to breathe. The dean's voice was not very loud in this office, but every word seemed to echo in Xingluo's mind.
"Do you know why Luoshen Village is a crescent-shaped basin?" Without waiting for Xingluo to speak, the dean continued, "This is a trace left behind by the great war among the gods. Because it is filled with divine power, Luoshen Village has always been prosperous and has produced many outstanding geniuses."
"It's just that the divine power has been getting weaker and weaker in the past hundred years, and it's rare for amazing geniuses to appear in the village." When the dean said this, his brows slightly frowned, with a hint of worry between his brows, but he continued talking in a moment. Xingluo listened attentively and didn't notice.
"So naturally, a lot of people were watching us. Fortunately, we were protected by the academy, so they only dared to watch and didn't take any action. It wasn't until that day that many of the academy's senior executives were lured away by a group of men in black, and I was not in the academy, that a big mistake was made. The academy is sorry for you."
At this point, Xingluo couldn't help but feel a little sad. "The academy has done its best to protect a humble village like theirs. Besides, the dignified Storm Lord apologized to him, what else can he ask for?"
Xingluo shook his head and was a little depressed. The dean sighed, "Silly child, this is a world where the strong prey on the weak. Only when you become stronger can you have more chances of survival. One day, the external forces will not be able to protect you enough."
"Recently, I observed the stars at night and even spent several relics to read the stars. I found that this era is about to usher in a great chaos, and geniuses will appear in large numbers, like the stars in the sky. You must be prepared and not slack off. If you continue to be like an ordinary child, I can still protect you in the academy."
"But now that you have entered the tide of history, there are things that are beyond your control. It is impossible to extricate yourself. Therefore, the only way to survive in the coming chaos is to continuously improve your own strength and be careful in everything."
"Now that you have graduated, the academy can no longer protect you. Take this thing first. It will be useful in the future."
The dean handed him a dull bracelet and said, "I found this in an extremely dangerous ruin. I still don't know what it is used for. You keep it for now. I always feel that this thing seems to have some connection with you."
Xingluo had a sense of déjà vu when looking at the bracelet. It seemed to be somewhat similar to the dagger he threw in the corner of the space ring, and both looked a little rusty.
This time he discovered something strange. The rust on it made him realize that something was unusual, because the rust on the two things was surprisingly similar. These things were definitely not just rust, they were more like formation diagrams.
"Put it away for now. I believe it will be of use in the future." The dean glanced at Xingluo who was still fiddling with the bracelet and reminded him.
It was only because Xingluo had made great progress in his alchemy level that he noticed the abnormality. Otherwise, he would have just treated it as rust. If he had not obtained the dagger before, he would never have discovered the strangeness of the rust.
The dean is a powerful magician who has made achievements in alchemy. He has visited many ruins in the past, but did not find any abnormality in the rust.
This formation seemed to be of a very high level, and even though he could see it, it was not something he could crack right now, so he put the bracelet away.
The dean then gave him some further instructions and gave him some life-saving scrolls and equipment before letting him leave.
Xingluo was secretly moved. He didn't know why the dean was so good to him, but he owed Luo Seminary too much. When he returned to the dormitory, he found that Mo's things were gone. He packed up a little and left the dormitory.
There were still some places in Luoshen Academy that he had to visit. After all, he didn't know when he would be able to come back. Although the dean had allowed a graduated student like him to come back, he couldn't come here every other day.
