Chapter 241 Okavis Academy
Taking advantage of the calmer sandstorm outside, Cheng Jiu went out of the house to look for the mission jade slip.
As always, the mission platform was not far from Cheng Jiu. Perhaps considering the frequent sandstorms in the area, this time the platform was carved into the hard stone wall, while the jade slip was firmly embedded in the groove of the stone wall.
Cheng Jiu's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally died.
Earn a diploma from Okavis College!
Looking at the large characters in the air, Cheng Jiu tentatively asked, "Senior, I believe you are aware of the situation here. Could this mission be changed?"
The large golden characters paused briefly in mid-air, then quickly twisted to form new characters:
Become the Queen of Snakelo!
Cheng Jiu's eyes widened in disbelief. Good heavens! This is a case of killing people instead of solving problems!
Thinking about the ending of the protagonist in the story the dwarf told, according to the dwarf, that good-for-nothing was definitely stronger than her, after all, he came from the Great World.
Even so, she was still slapped to death. Such power, and she was just a little karami!
I'd rather be dead!
Undeterred, Cheng Jiu asked again, "Senior, could you revise it again?"
The letter obediently twisted, returning to its original task.
After trying several times, Cheng Jiu realized that there were only two tasks: either solve the problem or deal with the person who raised the problem.
In comparison, Cheng Jiu decided that pragmatism is the best policy and chose the first option.
At least the first one was only imprisoned and exiled, and still had a chance of survival; the second one was guaranteed to die!
Back inside the small courtyard, the sandstorm outside roared again, mirroring Cheng Jiu's mood.
He slumped back in his chair, a faint sense of death rising in his mind.
Buto and his companions pretended to be nonchalant, but in reality, they kept glancing at Cheng Jiu out of the corner of their eyes.
"How is it?" Bru asked, looking at Cheng Jiu.
Cheng Jiu raised his hand high and gave him a thumbs up.
Bru was puzzled and scratched his head with a confused look in his eyes!
"You're right!"
Yes, so the trial really is a graduation certificate from Okavis Academy!
Things couldn't get any worse; they could only get the worst.
Cheng Jiu finally understood why they sympathized with her. About three thousand years before Cheng Jiu arrived, Okavis Academy was still a relatively independent First Academy, which recruited outstanding commoner students every year.
However, it was later taken over by the royal family, and the current Queen was the only student of the previous Dean of Okavis Academy, who is also currently serving as the Dean of Okavis Academy.
Although Okavis Academy still admits talented students from commoner backgrounds, it only does so once every three years. At other times, only a small number of places are allocated to nobles, and all are approved by Her Majesty the Queen.
The last time commoner geniuses were recruited was this year. If she wants to join Okavis Academy, she will have to wait at least three years and rely on luck to avoid being discovered by the Queen. She is a trial participant.
"..." Cheng Jiu fell silent. At this moment, she really wanted to whip the corpse. She really wanted to ask that guy if he knew who he had offended.
Cheng Jiu tentatively looked at Bru and asked, "You said tens of thousands of years have passed, could the Queen have already let go of it?"
Blue said honestly, "Her Highness the Princess might let it go, but the Queen won't!"
Because the latter has the right to hold grudges about past events and the power to take their anger out on others. No one dares to refute them.
Because the other party is a queen, the ruler of a powerful empire.
"Does the Queen really care about this so much?" It was a complete dead end, and Cheng Jiu couldn't think of a good solution, so he decided to gossip a bit to make the trip worthwhile.
"Her Majesty the Queen has long since come to terms with this, and she has married a royal consort and has several beauties in her harem!"
"The main thing is that this matter has embarrassed Her Majesty the Queen, after all, she was deceived!" Bru explained on behalf of his Queen.
"Is there any way to get Her Majesty the Queen to back down?" Cheng Jiu listened to Bru's words, which meant that Her Majesty the Queen and the trial participants didn't have any major conflicts, but she just couldn't bring herself to do it.
Since that's the case, she decided to offer a way out, allowing Her Majesty the Queen to comfortably raise her hand. Instantly, she thought of the honey trap, a very effective tactic during the Warring States period.
Bribing the favored concubine!
"Does Her Majesty the Queen have any particularly favored concubines? Could I bribe her to let me off the hook?"
“You have no money!” Bru said sincerely. “We have no use for the treasures from your place. We don’t have spiritual energy, so we can’t get much kasi in return.”
"So that means it exists!"
Cheng Jiu's attention was completely elsewhere. With her abilities, how could she not earn Kathy's money?
If the weapon is useless, does that mean the elixir is also useless?
"Her Majesty's favorite concubine recently is a noble prince sent by the Guang Clan, who has been given the title of Guang Jun. If you wish to meet him, Guang Qing, being a member of the same clan, can introduce you!"
In the capital, news from the royal family is something everyone must pay attention to when doing business.
For example, you need to know everything about the Queen's mood, who she dealt with, who she promoted, and who she favors in the harem. Otherwise, if you offend the Queen, you can forget about living in the capital.
The queen has a discerning eye. Apart from the fixed dwarf king, the other beauties in the harem are few in number, but each one is one in a hundred, and they are all personally selected by the queen.
As for the newly favored Prince Hikaru, he has always been a handsome man of the Hikaru clan. He was later presented to the Queen and immediately gained her favor upon entering the palace, a situation that is quite rare in the harem.
Even the Light Clan received a lot of resources from the Queen because of her favoritism, and even Light Prince's parents and the clan leader were granted titles by the Queen.
This is not a title within the clan, but a title of nobility in the Kingdom of Snakelo, a true national noble title.
Such titles were usually granted only to dwarves, which shows how much the Light Lord was favored.
Although the Queen may not be known for her long-lasting affections, it has only been two years since Guangjun became favored, so she should still be in the throes of infatuation.
That's why Bru spoke to Cheng Jiu with certainty.
"Thank you, then I'll leave it to you!" Cheng Jiu said happily.
"Then what are you going to give? A gift for Lord Light?" Blue asked, a conflict flashing in his eyes. "I can lend you a treasure. If you enter Okavis Academy, you can return it to me slowly!"
Do you lack medicinal pills here?
"Pills? You're an alchemist?" Bru looked at Cheng Jiu with intense surprise in his eyes.
"Yes!" Cheng Jiu took out a bottle of pills from his ring, containing pills of grades one through nine: "Take a look and see which ones you need. If you need any, I can trade with you!"
"That's wonderful!" Buto picked up the pill and examined it carefully. He never expected that just chatting would lead to such a big surprise!
Cheng Jiu looked at Butuo and thought to himself, "Pills are indeed a hard currency no matter where you are!"
