Chapter 208: Enrollment
in a dilapidated wooden building.
Geller's body was a little weak and he slumped on the ground, looking at the corpse fragments on the ground, his body was shaking a little, and he said in disbelief: "Teacher, teacher, why are you... dead..." Li He bowed
. He lowered his body and picked up a fragment of Bobo Bonas's body. He looked at it carefully. After a few seconds, he narrowed his eyes.
It can be seen that what Bobo Bonas left behind is not a corpse in the conventional sense at all, but more like some kind of artificial material.
It seems that the other party's body is artificially synthesized, and the other party is just manipulating this body to do things.
In other words, the other person is more like a doll than a human being.
Could it be...a clone?
Li He had a guess in his mind.
According to the records in the "Book of Destiny", he learned that those who reached the wizard level often have many amazing methods, and clones are one of them.
A powerful wizard can spend many precious materials to create his own independent clone.
On the one hand, the clone can do many things on behalf of the main body and take some risks.
On the other hand, the clone can also play a role similar to a parasite, helping the main body to share and transfer the damage of the curse.
So, is Bobo Bonas actually a doppelganger?
Li He recalled Geller's previous resentment - he had been following Bobo Bonas for so long, and he didn't even know his real name. He only called him "Teacher No. 1" at Bobo Bonas's request.
Later, the other party called himself Bobo Bonas. Such a strange name was probably given casually.
Looking at it this way, it really looks like a clone... Li He became more and more sure.
So...
he blinked.
If Popobonas is a clone, then he should have a real body.
Who is the entity? Where are you now?
The other party took away his synthetic ruby technology, so he couldn't just die. He had to have an explanation.
Just when he thought of this, Li He suddenly heard a roar and suddenly looked up.
Geller, who was crying bitterly, also heard something and looked at the ceiling of the room with tears on his face.
The next moment there was a "crash" sound, the ceiling was torn open, and a tall figure penetrated directly through the entire wooden building, and was wrapped in the strong wind and landed in the room.
"Bang!"
His feet landed heavily, stirring up a large cloud of dust, and broken wood chips flying in all directions.
"Fall!"
The tall figure said, stretched out a hand and pressed down gently.
Dust and sawdust fell to the ground in unison, as if they had received an order.
Li He and Geller looked at the person who came and saw clearly that it was a male wizard in his fifties with bright eyes.
Before the two of them could ask, the other party took the initiative to speak. His voice was magnetic, contagious and coercive: "Let me introduce myself. My name is Gauss Karl. I am the second dean of Dark Heart Academy. I am responsible for the current daily life of the academy. Everything."
Having said this, the other party paused, glanced at the bones of Bobobonas on the ground, and said: "The wizard Bobobonas you just came into contact with is a clone of me. To be precise, The earliest clone No. 1 made. Because the technique was relatively unfamiliar at first, even though a lot of precious materials were used, there were still many flaws. So as you just saw, he died because he was too excited, so I had to personally Come and meet."
"So it's Dean Gauss? Hello." Li He looked at the person who appeared in front of him and verified his guess. Without hesitation, he saluted quickly. As the absolute top executive in the academy and one of the most powerful wizards, the other party still needs to be polite.
"Hello, Dean Gauss." Geller, who was sitting paralyzed, also hurriedly struggled to get up and saluted Gauss, but his expression was still stunned. To be honest, he had experienced so many things today that challenged his cognitive limits that he couldn't tell whether it was reality or a dream.
"You're welcome." Gauss glanced at Geller, his eyes stayed on Li He, looked up and down seriously, and said, "To be honest, I have to thank you. The method of artificially synthesizing rubies you told me is right. I am very useful and can greatly help my research. Therefore, you don’t have to worry about what my clone No. 1 promised you before, I will still fulfill it for you." After hearing this, Li He felt slightly relieved
: Just don't default on your debt. To be honest, if he really defaulted on his debt, it would be difficult for him to collect the debt from the other party who is the senior executive of Dark Heart Academy.
Gauss pondered for two seconds, as if he was organizing his words, and looked at Li He and said: "Before, you and my clone No. 1 were talking about using the method of artificially synthesizing rubies in exchange for the knowledge of complementary meditation methods, right?"
" Yes."
"Well, I will give you two options now. First, I will open most of my private library to you and give you access to most of the books in the college library, allowing you to search freely. The knowledge you need, and then find a way to complete the meditation method on your own. To what extent you can complete it depends on your own ability. Second, just
like what I promised you before, clone No. 1, I will give you the knowledge in one year. The meditation method you have completed does not require you to do anything else, and the completion level is guaranteed to be above 90%. What do you think, which one do you want to choose?" "The first one." Li He hardly hesitated
. Choosing the first one, with enough reference materials, he is confident that he can complete the meditation method to the extent he wants to achieve. The most important thing is that he has a huge knowledge base and can do many other things in the process. Research, based on this alone, is worth the cost of artificially synthesizing rubies.
"Sure enough, you will choose the first one." Regarding Li He's choice, Gauss seemed to have expected it. He nodded lightly and then thought of something, "By the way, a kind reminder, if you choose from the first choice, If you haven't found suitable knowledge, or the progress of completing the meditation method is slow, you can try asking for help from the 'Apprentice's Mouth'." "'The Apprentice's Mouth'
? What is this?" "
Well, how do you explain it? You can ask him As a knowledgeable scholar, you can also think of the legendary djinn that can fulfill people's wishes, but it exists in the form of a magical prop. It is one of the most important items in the academy. Using it, you can quickly get The answer you want, the complementary meditation method, is naturally not a problem. However... you need certain qualifications and conditions to use it. The easiest one at present is to perform well in the annual test three months later and obtain If you get good grades, you can get the right to use the 'Apprentice's Mouth' once. In this way, you can complete your meditation method within three months at the earliest." "
Three months? Annual test?" Li He blinked. Blinking his eyes, he felt something move. He had heard about the annual test. He didn't take it seriously at first and thought he could just deal with it. But now it seems that he needs to reconsider.
"Okay, that's it. I'm still busy. I guess a few old guys are getting impatient with waiting. I have to go see them." Gauss finally said, turning around and leaving.
Just as he took a step, he stopped again, looked at Li He, and raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Dean?"
Gauss said: "Li He, right? I remember that my clone No. 1 promised to let you gain his friendship, right? He is dead now, and the friendship is definitely gone, but if you are willing, You can be my student, um, in a formal way."
