I upgrade points in the Holy Inquisition

Chapter 299 298. It feels like going home here

"Take your hands away!"

The moment the tentacles appeared, a teacher next to him shouted loudly.

Lloyd was startled by the sudden surge of tentacles, and he immediately retracted his hand as if he was electrocuted.

The crystal ball dimmed in an instant, the tentacles that came out also disappeared, and everything returned to calm.

"Uh... Such a picture..."

Lloyd was stunned, looked down at his hands, then turned back and asked:

"Does this mean I have a talent for learning magic?"

"you……"

This sentence directly made the four bald heads present unable to say a word...

After several seconds, one of the bald teachers reached out to scratch his non-existent hair and said seriously:

"Sorry, we can't draw a conclusion because a vision like this is something we have never encountered before."

Another teacher also said:

"Okay, the talent test is over. You can take him to other places for a walk, but remember, never let him touch those magical creations again!"

After saying that, he impatiently forced the three of them out of the infirmary, and then closed the door tightly with a bang.

"this……"

The two bald brothers who brought Lloyd here to 'see the world' suddenly became extremely embarrassed.

Lloyd also asked helplessly:

"So what's going on now?"

"Let's go to the lounge and talk..."

The bald brother pursed his lips toward the other side of the corridor.

The three of them then went to the lounge together, while the two teachers in the infirmary were surrounding the crystal ball and conducting a careful inspection.

"There is no abnormality in the readings. It's just that his rank is only the third level of [Rejection], but his spiritual power is very strong, far exceeding the standard of the third level, even stronger than the average fifth level... But just now What happened to that vision?"

"This 'detection crystal', in addition to its ordinary functions, can also read some shallow thoughts of students. Under the guidance of our words, the results it presents should be closer to his subconscious understanding of 'magic' This concept is imaginary, but why are there a bunch of evil tentacles?”

"Does he subconsciously associate magic with these things? Does he have a deep malice towards magic?"

"That shouldn't be this kind of phenomenon. It's not like we haven't met students who are not interested in or even disgusted with magic before. When they touch the 'Detection Crystal', the scenes they see are just some unknown pictures, not Tentacles that portend madness and chaos."

"Could it be because he is a special freshman in the space department? Since he is connected to the space side, it would not be surprising for any freaks to appear."

"It's possible..."

A bald teacher said, opening the cabinet where the crystal ball was placed, grabbing a slender piece of paper from underneath, and looking at the various marks left on it.

"It's a pity. His physical condition is actually very good. Except for being too thin, his other basic values ​​are completely in line with our needs here. If there are no problems like the one just now, he should be able to pass the next few tests smoothly."

Another teacher also took the note, looked at it carefully, and then said with regret:

"Yes, he has strong spiritual power and high rationality. What is even more commendable is that he is extremely adaptable to mental pollution. This is an unparalleled and precious talent, and he is definitely a rare genius! The following tests also It will definitely not be difficult for him...

The only flaw is that his body is too weak, and the 'catching bullets with bare hands' test may get stuck on him. "

"It's a pity that his impression of 'magic' is too weird, otherwise..."

"Let's react to the professor and see what they say above?"

"That's fine, but this kid has been cut off by the Space Department in advance. It will be difficult to convince Lawrence to let him go, right? Although he doesn't seem to be very aggressive, there should be no one in the academy willing to convince him."

"That's what the professors should consider. In short, let's report the problem first."

……………………

"Ah? Why do you need to 'break rocks from your chest' and 'catch bullets with your bare hands' to become a mage?"

Lloyd asked with surprise on his face while holding up a pair of dumbbells in his hand.

Then I heard a noise:

"Hmph~hum~drink!!!"

That was the sound made by a muscular guy not far away who was practicing bench press.

And this so-called lounge is basically a gym!

There are several 'mages' with bald heads and beautiful muscles inside, who are resting.

Well, rest with bench presses, deadlifts, pull-ups...

Although it felt strange to Lloyd, looking at these guys, each of them looked like a ghost, he felt a little envious.

Dashan of the City of Order gave him that fitness manual. It was very effective in strengthening strength and improving physical fitness, but it was not very effective in building muscle. I don’t know why?

But since he came to the gym, Lloyd just followed the Romans, picked up a dumbbell, played with it, and chatted with his bald brother.

Because the subsequent testing session was directly canceled, the two brothers verbally introduced Lloyd to the subsequent testing projects.

As a result, I heard the two words "chest broken with big rocks" and "grabbing bullets with bare hands"...

Are you going to be a wizard or go to the streets to be a wizard?

"It's not what you think. Although it sounds a bit like street juggling, it is actually a completely different mode. It is mainly used to detect your use of spiritual power and the ability of inspiration to coordinate and guide the body. These are the results that the "detection crystal" cannot see."

"Yes, it's actually quite fun."

The two bald brothers explained in unison.

"Well, it's a pity that I failed at the first level..."

Lloyd shrugged, changed the dumbbell to another hand, and said with some regret.

"Don't take it to heart. That 'detection crystal' can't measure everything accurately. For example, the only 'S-level' top student in our ancient magic department, when he touched the 'detection crystal', the picture he presented was even more exaggerated than yours."

"Oh?"

Lloyd became interested and listened to the bald brother gossiping:

"When that guy was a freshman, he was going to apply for the art department and become a novelist. As a result, he was encouraged by his roommates in the dormitory and tried our ancient magic department..."

"He was actually quite repulsive to 'magic' at first. It is said that when he was a child, he was cheated of all his parents' wealth by a charlatan pretending to be a wizard, and then he was very resistant to 'magic'..."

"So when he touched the crystal, the picture he presented was that kind of particularly evil and weird. Well... I don't know how to describe the specific situation to you. Just imagine it as a pot of cake covered with various eyes, right?"

Lloyd was stunned when he heard this.

Is this picture...evil?

It feels like a very creative dish, right?

I might consider reproducing it later and let my sister try it.

The two bald brothers continued to sing in unison:

“Even though such a picture appeared during the test, the two teachers firmly recognized his talent. Not only did they insist that he continue to participate in the subsequent tests, they also spent a lot of time to persuade him. In the end, they finally succeeded in ‘tricking’ him into our ancient magic department.”

“After that, it only took him about five years to upgrade his initial ‘D-’ rating to ‘S’ level, becoming a famous inspirational legend of Mitzkatokri.”

“So Lloyd, you don’t have to worry too much. Maybe you still have a chance later, but then again, you also joined the space department, right? Then you don’t have to worry about these things.”

“ Ahaha, I'm not worried about that. I just think that my test result is not good. Will it have some bad influence in the future? "

"You don't have to worry about that. Mitzkatok is a free and tolerant place. Have you read the freshman handbook? There are many subjects on it that are difficult to accept in the outside world, but in Mitzkatok, everyone can be treated equally, as long as they don't violate the rules of the college. "

"Well, I like this atmosphere. "

Lloyd nodded, and was about to suggest that the two take him to other places, when the door of the lounge was broken into by a bald strong man, notifying the two brothers to go to the professor.

The three of them had no choice but to part, and Lloyd could only go shopping alone.

But he was not a student of the ancient magic department, so he couldn't go to the second floor of this tower, and there was really nothing to see on the bottom floor. There was no library, no so-called "magic practice room" and "magic laboratory", only the cafeteria and the lounge, and there was very little information to be obtained.

Then there was nothing to stay here, so Lloyd left the tower and went outside, preparing to go to the Materialization Department.

He followed the instructions of the "small map" in front of him and came to the outside of a tower marked with [Materialization].

Compared with the magic tower in front of him, this place seemed much more deserted, with no students coming in and out, and no movement inside.

Lloyd even saw a few spider webs at the entrance, which seemed like no one had been in and out for a long time.

The distribution of them was very strange, far away from the other towers, and was stuffed in a remote corner. Even the greening nearby was not done well, and it was bare, looking a bit desolate and dilapidated.

Is [Materialization] so unpopular in Mitzkatok?

Lloyd couldn't help but feel a little curious, so he approached the door with questions in mind.

As a result, just after taking a few steps, he felt an invisible force forming an invisible wall, blocking his steps.

"Hmm? No visitors allowed?"

Lloyd was just feeling a little strange when the force suddenly relaxed and opened the door for him, as if inviting him in.

Then, Lloyd felt that the door with spider webs was exuding a familiar and comfortable atmosphere.

He didn't think much about it and walked in subconsciously, then peeled off the spider webs in front of the door and pushed open the door that seemed to have been closed for a long time.

Click~Zi~

With a sharp noise, the heavy iron door slowly opened, revealing a narrow and dim corridor inside, where nothing could be seen clearly.

But the familiar atmosphere in the air made Lloyd even stronger, making him even impatient to walk in.

The kitten that was originally curled up in his pocket saw that he was determined to leave, so it quickly jumped off him, curled up at the door, and meowed pitifully twice.

It seems to be reminding the owner to pay attention to safety, right?

But Lloyd didn't care about these things at this time. After entering the tower, he suddenly felt a sense of comfort at home. He strolled leisurely in the dim corridor, as if appreciating and enjoying the atmosphere here.

But there was nothing in this corridor, no room, no door, no sign, and no light. There was only darkness in front of him.

There was not even a staircase like going up, only this floor.

And it was a completely straight passage, as if it could extend to the horizon.

Lloyd walked slowly and patiently, as if he had forgotten the time and the distance, and he could no longer remember how far he had walked.

Until finally, he found an ancient and heavy iron door at the end of this long and narrow corridor.

Lloyd didn't think much about it, nor did he use his inspiration to check it. He just pushed the door open naturally, as if he had opened the door of his own room.

Then, his sight suddenly became clear, and the light became slightly brighter.

He saw a gray sky, very low, as if it would fall at any time.

In the sky, a scarlet blood moon hung, emitting a dazzling light like blood.

But this light was completely blocked by the gray fog around it, and could not be sprinkled on the ground, so that the world below could still maintain its complete color.

And under this blood moon, there was a desolate and dead world, all of that kind of dilapidated gray, like the end of the world.

There was nothing here, except for those towering towers, nothing could be seen.

There were no mountains, no rivers, no vitality.

Only those towering towers stood on this dead wasteland, as if they were supporting the sky that was about to collapse.

Lloyd looked at the scene in front of him and suddenly realized why this place made him so familiar.

It was very similar, really very similar...

It was really similar to his [Thinking Field]...

It was just that those towers were not spiral-shaped, but ordinary cylindrical.

And it also lacks the small patch of grass and its vitality and green.

This makes it look more similar to the extraordinary school district where Lloyd is currently.

Just as Lloyd was quietly admiring this familiar scene in front of him, a voice suddenly came to his ears:

"Nice to meet you, the owner of the Book of Truth."
