Chapter 218 Studying Abroad in Dragon City, the Academy! The Power of Totem!
"A parting gift?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yu raised an eyebrow slightly.
This statement feels strangely familiar.
He thought for a moment and then said, "Bring him over."
Although... he was able to handle the attack on Dragon City from Black Soil City with ease.
However, Xue Donglai did not help Heitucheng at the crucial moment, but instead chose to help him.
He must accept this favor!
A moment later, Xue Donglai received permission and followed Honglian into the forging area.
"The City Lord is truly amazing!" Xue Donglai couldn't help but exclaim as soon as he entered the inner city. "How many changes have occurred in Dragon City in just a few days?"
Xiao Yu's creation of a professional blacksmith academy has already greatly shocked him.
Once this academy makes a name for itself, Dragon City will become like the former Divine Weapon City.
Countless people travel great distances to learn the craft, and Longcheng's influence is bound to grow ever greater.
What was most surprising was that as soon as he approached the city lord's mansion, he heard a clear reading voice.
It was a group of children aged 5 to 12 reading.
"Man is born good; natures are similar, but habits make them different..."
Xue Donglai vaguely felt that this sentence sounded very familiar, but where had he heard it before?
However, none of this matters anymore.
The important thing is, this is the end of the world.
Besides ensuring that the core members of the city have enough to eat and wear and have the opportunity to learn to read,
Among thousands of ordinary people, it would be difficult to find even one who can write their own name!
After all... in the apocalypse, being literate doesn't guarantee access to water or food!
Children reading in bright, spacious classrooms is something that could only have happened in ancient times!
"This environment...is so nice! My sister must really like it here." Xue Donglai paused for a moment at the entrance of the teaching building, a hint of envy flashing in his eyes. "Next time...I'll definitely bring her here."
Not to mention that naughty little sister, even he... wants to stay here for a long time.
"Does the young city lord like it here?" At this moment, a cheerful voice rang out.
“Yes, Lord City Lord.” Xue Dong looked at Xiao Yu at the entrance of the City Lord’s Mansion.
"If the young city lord is interested, he can come to my Dragon City to study in the future." Xiao Yu's tone was sincere, but a sly glint flashed in his eyes.
"Is this really true?" Upon hearing this, Xue Donglai's eyes flashed with surprise.
He had originally thought that outsiders were not allowed to stay in the inner city of Dragon City.
"Of course, this academy will be open to all humans, just like the Blacksmith Academy, and will only charge a small tuition fee!" Xiao Yu spread his hands, adopting an open-minded and righteous posture.
The purpose of opening the academy and enrolling students is naturally similar to that of the Blacksmith Academy.
But...the two sides are fundamentally not on the same level at all.
Because the Blacksmith Academy is just a technical school, while the Inner City Academy is an undergraduate institution of higher learning.
The talents cultivated by the inner city academy must be all-rounders in mathematics, physics and chemistry.
He is outstanding in every aspect, including ability, intelligence, and character...
Of course, various brainwashing techniques are also indispensable...
Once you enter his den of thieves, or his academy, you become one of his people!
Although... Dragon City Academy currently only has a dozen or so full-time students.
Although... he hasn't even finished compiling the teaching materials yet, only the kindergarten materials are available...
But... you should always have dreams, because you have the ability to make them come true!
"Then thank you very much, Lord City Lord!" Upon hearing this, Xue Donglai's eyes were full of anticipation.
He decided.
When Longcheng arrived at the City of Ruins, he healed his father.
He brought his younger sister to Longcheng to study.
"Then I wonder..." Xue Donglai suddenly thought of something and asked curiously.
Such a prestigious university must have a very impressive name.
"The name of the academy?" Upon hearing this, Xiao Yu's lips twitched.
You're telling this guy, who's terrible at naming things, to come up with a name?
Several familiar names flashed through his mind.
Whampoa Military Academy? Jixia Academy? Imperial College? Tsinghua University or Peking University?
Finally, Xiao Yu said with certainty, "The Academy!"
"Um...that's a great name!"
Xue Donglai's lips twitched before he slapped his thigh and uttered this compliment.
"I think it's great too!"
After another round of pleasantries, the two exchanged pleasantries.
Xue Donglai then spoke earnestly, "Lord of Dragon City, I've come today to say goodbye! However, before I leave, there are two things I need to tell you..."
"Okay, you go ahead." Xiao Yu picked up the Bodhi tea, took a sip, and gestured for the other person to speak.
"First of all, I know you want to go to the City of Ten Thousand Beasts to trade, but... Lord City Lord, I hope you won't get too entangled with those orcs, and don't stay in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range for too long!" Xue Donglai thought for a moment and said in a serious tone.
He knew that several orcs had appeared in Dragon City.
It is speculated that Dragon City may have close ties with the orcs.
However, the City of Ten Thousand Beasts is different from other places; it is very special.
If Dragon City were to anger the Temple because of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, the consequences would be unimaginable.
At that time... the deal between the City of Ruins and Dragon City may also run into problems.
"Oh? Why?" Xiao Yu asked, his eyes slightly sharp.
He went to the City of Ten Thousand Beasts only to make a trade; he wasn't planning on doing anything intentionally.
But I don't like to make any changes because of what other people say.
"I'm sorry, Lord City Lord!"
Xue Donglai glanced in the direction of the Dragon Gate Inn, gave a wry smile, and said, "I don't know the specifics, but I know a thing or two about the strength of the Beast City. The city lord is only at the peak of the eighth rank, or perhaps a little higher, and there are several other eighth-rank cultivators. Such strength is far inferior to even my Ruins City..."
With the temple's strength, wiping out or capturing the orcs of Beast City would not be difficult.
But they haven't taken any action against Beast City unless the orcs leave the Beast Mountain Range...
Xue Donglai didn't say anything more after that, and he didn't know the specifics.
"Thank you for reminding me, I understand." Xiao Yu nodded to express his gratitude.
As I said before, just do what needs to be done.
He went to the City of Ten Thousand Beasts, and if the other party was easy to talk to, he would trade directly.
If the other side is like Black Earth City, then we can just fight!
"The second thing is the gift I mentioned! Lord City Lord, I apologize for my rudeness..." Xue Donglai said, bowing slightly to Xiao Yu in apology before opening his cuffs and collar to reveal his arms and neck.
"This is..." Xiao Yu's expression changed slightly upon seeing what was on the other person's skin.
"Ancient Totem Secret Techniques!"
Xue Donglai did not hide anything and spoke frankly.
“Do you remember what I said before? In my city of ruins, there is a master of formations who can set up teleportation arrays. Not only that, he also has mastered the mysterious ancient totem secrets.”
As he spoke, Xue Donglai directly exposed his back.
On his back was a ferocious beast tattooed on his back.
The pattern looked incredibly lifelike.
Especially its beastly eyes, which seemed to want to devour people.
