Chapter 321
After staying there for about half an hour, Zhao Xu saw that there wasn’t much progress in the research below, so he left the area with Antonya and returned to the obelisk.
After winter began in Mystra, the wind that blew across the island at night also began to carry a frosty feeling, but it wasn’t Bone-piercing, only reminding everyone of the change of season when it brushed past their faces.
Antonya didn’t make a sound during the entire process, and Zhao Xu just followed behind her.
When the two of them returned to the obelisk, they did not head straight to the office. Instead, they found a viewing platform where they could rest.
zhao xu lay down on a sofa that was so big that he could sink into it, and he couldn’t help but stretch his back comfortably.
antonya sat quietly across from zhao xu. she lifted the golden-plated copper teapot and poured out a cup of hot black tea.
The two of them were sitting in a circle in front of a small table, and outside was a floor-to-ceiling glass.
Looking around, the entire floating city’s night view was in full view, and even the green night sky in the distance could be seen.
the observation deck was a resting area that antonya had set up for herself on the seventh floor to enjoy the night view.
zhao xu rarely stayed up late at night, and this was the first time he was sitting at a high place with antonya and looking at the night sky. he could even hear the howling cold wind that was blocked by the glass.
Antonya took a sip of the black tea in her cup and looked at Zhao Xu calmly.
“Mentor?” zhao xu asked.
Antonya didn’t say anything more. She just took out a stack of documents from her dimensional bag and handed them over to Zhao Xu.
“I’ll arrange three teaching jobs for you. You can do spell research while completing these three jobs.”
three?
Zhao Xu almost didn’t know how to react when he heard this, but he still took the materials that Antonya handed over to him.
This teaching position wasn’t like cabbages in the market. How could it be sold in one go?
zhao xu was confused as he flipped through the materials in his hands.
the materials were divided into three stacks, corresponding to the teaching posts in the floating city, the church of the goddess, and the civilian academy.
He would teach apprentice mages, apprentice priests, and Noble scholars.
“choose one of the three?” Zhao Xu quickly scanned through the details of the three documents.
In theory, the most suitable job for him would be teaching apprentice mages in the floating city.
They had professional counterparts, close organizational relationships, smooth connections, and most importantly, convenient transportation, so they didn’t have to go too far.
antonya shook her head. ” yes, ” she said. ” i want them all. ”
zhao xu was even more confused when he heard this.
logically speaking, he had not reached the stage where he could casually create a clone.
” don’t worry, these teaching positions aren’t full-time. they’ve staggered their own schedules. you just have to attend classes at the corresponding time according to the requirements. ” antonya said.
zhao xu understood this, and even if he were asked to teach cleric apprentices, he would still be somewhat suitable.
“Teacher, it’s this ‘Civil Service Academy’ that doesn’t seem to match me, right?” zhao xu couldn’t help but ask.
Speaking of which, he had also come into contact with the students of the civil service College. In the past, Andy and a few of his companions were all students of the Civilian Academy.
It could be said that this Academy was a rather good place for the nobles and bureaucrats of Mystra to go to when their descendants were unable to become mages or priests.
the civil service academy itself was for mystra to train the nobles, civil servants, and even the corresponding technical bureaucrats. no matter how he thought about it, it had nothing to do with zhao xu.
He didn’t have the ‘mentor’ or ‘distinguished family’ rank.
“Well, it’s mainly for you to get in touch with the middle class of Mystra.” Antonya said.
zhao xu couldn’t help but be stunned when he heard this.
He was currently in contact with one of Mystra’s higher-ups, and the person in front of him was one of them.
As adventurers, they would always be in contact with the people at the bottom of the society as long as they were out on a mission.
Only the middle class, which was a closed loop system composed of ordinary nobles, a huge bureaucratic system, and various merchants and rich families, faintly isolated him from the outside world.
now that he was the teacher in this circle, there would naturally be invisible contact.
However, this did not seem to have much to do with him becoming a high-ranked wizard.
as the association’s contact in the church of the goddess, reyan had to maintain close contact with this middle-level circle.
but no matter if zhao xu wanted to go down the path of battle or research, these people weren’t people that he needed to deal with.
So Zhao Xu couldn’t help but carefully think about Antonya’s intentions for making this arrangement.
Outside the observation platform, the clouds in the sky moved with the sky and covered the moonlight. It also cut off 30% of the light from the ground and made Zhao Xu’s face turn dark as he looked at the floor-to-ceiling glass.
zhao xu had already guessed it, but he didn’t dare to confirm it.
“eh? Do you know what I’m trying to do?” antonya suddenly chuckled.
“i think there are two possibilities, but i’m not sure which one it is.” zhao xu said.
“both.” antonya said directly, then stood up, revealing her slender figure.
“So you have a long way to go.” antonya said.
Zhao Xu also gently poured a cup of black tea for himself, even though he didn’t feel anything when he drank it because he was in the projection.
Only the governor of Mystra needed to have deep contact with the middle echelons who supported the entire system.
This meant that he would have to take up this role in the future. this was because the players did not have any backing and were more like outsiders.
this was his first guess.
The second reason was that he had once read a sentence in an ancient book in the legendary library-human nature was the first step to divinity.
in order to become a god, he had to come into contact with all kinds of believers and see all kinds of human nature.
But no matter which guess he made, it would have a lot of implications, so Zhao Xu didn’t dare to make any wild guesses.
suddenly, zhao xu looked at the three blood moons that had been blocked by the clouds and mist again. he looked at the crescent-shaped moon that was completely different from earth’s and couldn’t help but ask, ” teacher, what if the channel is not temporarily connected tonight, or even can not be restarted tomorrow? ”
Zhao Xu’s meaning was very clear. What if the players were unable to log into the game again because of this?
today, zhao xu managed to get even more secret information about that energy and material passageway.
that was why he needed to determine the attitude of the higher-ups of mystra and even the gods towards this matter from antonya’s attitude.
Antonya did indeed frown a little. so you’re saying that we’ll be separated forever from now on? ”
when zhao xu first heard this, he was about to correct the other party’s mistakes. he wasn’t dead yet, so how could they be separated forever?
but antonya suddenly turned around to face zhao xu and said in an ethereal voice, ” “zhongxia, if that’s the case, i’ll come find you.”
“according to the rules of our bloodline, you can’t be considered a master until you reach the legendary level. so, i haven’t fulfilled my responsibility to you yet.” As she said this, she deliberately snorted, obviously very satisfied with her answer.
After hearing what the legend Antonya said, Zhao Xu felt as if a Crow was flying over his head.
“Teacher, only a legend can be considered a master?”
“Well, it’s not that strict,” antonya chuckled.”or if you can help me out when i’m taking over a certain level of the abyss, then i’ll consider you a master.”
“then i’d better become a legendary-mage.”
——————–
Just as Zhao Xu was having a close conversation with Antonya in the middle of the night.
On the other hand, the “1” number of online users in the entire forum was getting more and more intense. Many players who had fallen asleep were woken up by their companions to participate in this storm.
On the forums, countless players were giving their own speculations. A large number of people were even madly @ Dongcheng kun, who was the most well-informed, waiting for his reply.
However, Zhao Xu was already in-game, so he naturally couldn’t give her an answer.
as a result, many people started to post suspicions that “dongcheng kun” was the online “1.”
However, considering that it was the middle of the night, the other party might have fallen asleep, so this guess was not confirmed.
But slowly, with the appearance of many high-level players and gods, the voices on the forum slowly gathered in the same direction-
perhaps the disconnection wasn’t caused by a server upgrade or a network failure.
Instead, a certain ” player ” had triggered an epic plot mission of the game, which led to a version update.
according to arthur’s character, it was possible that a certain existence would cause the entire world to change.
this also explained why the other party was able to log into the game in advance.
Because this was that person’s initial quest.
