Chapter 538 Administrator’s entrustment
Everyone had a great time at the dinner at the Zoltan Hotel.
The magnificent layout, paired with bright and gorgeous chandeliers, makes the environment high-end and comfortable, and the atmosphere is lively but not noisy. The upper-class people chatted and drank, while the waiters, who were handsome men and beautiful women, appeared in every corner of the restaurant with the most professional postures, serving plate after plate of luxurious dishes.
The overall dining experience really wowed everyone.
Even Ahsoka, who was once a princess, secretly admired the quality of this dinner.
At the dinner table, Feliciano was talking most of the time, talking about some interesting things in the academy or strange things he learned from the circle of noble children, constantly enlivening the atmosphere.
Polaris and Ahsoka were poor talkers and remained silent almost the entire time, just acting as loyal listeners. Lucy didn't want to be rude in front of Mr. Jack and didn't say too much.
Lucy's eloquence is actually very good, but she would rather be quiet and spend her time secretly watching the teacher, with attachment flashing in her eyes from time to time.
Fortunately, Qingtian Xiaoyu is also a talkative person. He will laugh and agree with the topic, and show curiosity at the right time, which makes the situation less embarrassing.
No matter what, it can be said that this meal deepened the relationship between the students and gave them a preliminary understanding of each other...especially Feliciano. Everyone fell in love with this cheerful and generous guy.
He seems to be different from other aristocratic children. He does not have that arrogance and can easily get along with others.
Polar Star looked at the relaxed and joyful interaction between the four junior brothers and sisters. Teacher Jack smiled and said nothing. The warm scene in front of him touched him quite a bit.
From the beginning of the closed beta when he came to this game world, he always had a player's heart and regarded everyone here as a pile of data... But since meeting Mr. Jack, this mentality has quietly changed in him. Change.
Polaris gradually came to believe that Mr. Jack was not like a piece of meaningless data. The other person's words, deeds, thoughts, and even his care for him were all thick and warm... and had an impact on him.
The Dragon King and others in the team joked more than once that Brother Beizi would often imitate Jack unintentionally, whether it was his behavior, appearance, or even his thoughts... Polaris was surprised by this, but at the same time he thought they were right.
Now, he couldn't help but have greater doubts.
"Is this really a game world? Then this is too real...so real that I can't believe that they can be created with so-called supercomputers..."
Polaris thought to himself and fell into silence.
Suddenly, he felt a hand fall on his shoulder.
Looking up, I saw Teacher Jack looking at me with a smile, as if he had seen through what I was thinking, and said lightly:
"All encounters are destined... Human beings have many weaknesses, but confusion is not among them, because only with confusion can firmness appear."
Polar Star looked at him blankly, his heart fluctuating even more.
The teacher's voice became ethereal, and seemed to be filled with emotion:
"Man is born to dream... he will dream of the sun and the moon, the stars, the carriages and leaves of this era, a home in a foreign land, a bed in a foreign land and a warm mattress... But in the long night, There are also times when I feel extremely sad. This may not be a familiar world, but it is so real that it makes people tremble. ”
Polaris was stunned for a long time.
He didn't know why the teacher said this to him, but he always felt that there was something in the teacher's words... as if he was lamenting himself as a "player", or expressing some kind of longing for his hometown.
Polaris felt a strong sense of sadness for no reason.
Some for myself and some for the teacher.
"Is Teacher Jack a destined person from another continent, a key figure in the direction of the entire world?"
Polaris secretly made a bold guess.
Perhaps the teacher was not a native of this continent, and there were loopholes and falsehoods in his background story in the past. Maybe there was a huge hidden secret in it.
After a while.
At the end of the dinner, Felisiano waved his hand and handed a Golden Pavilion card to the waiter to pay for the meal worth more than 150 langabo.
Everyone left talking and laughing and returned to St. Byron College.
But before parting, Chen Lun gave the students some tasks and homework, asking them to read three designated books before the end of the week. A random check will be carried out next week, and only those who pass the exam can officially start studying mysticism.
"Okay, teacher, I will definitely finish reading it well!"
Feliciano was the first to answer.
He looked extremely excited and looking forward to it, and he didn't know how long this enthusiasm would last. After all, this guy was notoriously playful.
The other four people nodded and assured the teacher that they would read the book seriously.
“There’s a lot of energy, which is good.”
Chen Lun nodded with satisfaction.

One week has passed in a blink of an eye.
Early that morning, Chen Lun went to the St. Byron Library as usual.
He made an appointment with the students to gather in the apartment tomorrow to check everyone's homework. Today he will continue his own study and research.
Go straight to the Secret Collection Hall on the fifth floor.
Galio, the administrator of the registration office, still raised his hand and pointed, and then looked at the ancient books in his hand indifferently. Chen Lun smiled, walked to the fourth bookshelf on the left, and started reading.
In this week, he has read three entire bookshelves of mysterious books, totaling more than 1,600 books. He has accumulated nearly 2 million experience points, and his knowledge of magic has been extremely profound.
A low-sequence or even mid-sequence extraordinary person would probably not be able to read all of these books in his lifetime, let alone read them thoroughly. However, Chen Lun not only read and understood them thoroughly, but his brain was like a sophisticated memory disk, memorizing all the knowledge deeply. .
These only took a week.
Chen Lun became more and more aware of his advantages.
In addition to combat power and weight, this is a learning efficiency that far exceeds that of those in high positions at the same level. If grasped well, it is another powerful means to increase one's own strength.
The player has a panel, and so does he, but he works harder than the player and has more mysterious resources... The high-ranking person has a strong learning ability, he is stronger, and he has a panel that they do not have.
‘So, we cannot waste this advantage...’
Chen Lun sighed secretly.
The ivory white cane was raised slightly, then dropped, hitting the spine of another book. Not long after, this action cycled again...
When night falls, a long time passes.
At nine o'clock sharp, St. Byron's College was enveloped by a bell.
When——
The few remaining professors on the fifth floor reluctantly put down their books and left silently. Chen Lun also happened to finish reading the last book on the fourth bookshelf. He glanced up and saw that the remaining dozen bookshelves were standing quietly, waiting for his future blessing.
With a chuckle, he turned around with satisfaction and planned to leave.
But when passing the registration office, a prompt suddenly popped up on the panel——
[Gario has developed an appreciation for you, his favorability has increased, and he is currently friendly...]
‘Huh? ’
Chen Lun raised his eyebrows, stopped and looked at the man sitting behind the front desk.
The pale-skinned secret keeper raised his head at this moment, and his thick glasses reflected the dim light. He grinned and said in a low voice:
"How have you harvested these days, Your Majesty Jack?"
"Quite happy."
Chen Lun was in a good mood and simply stood aside and said.
"I am quite interested in the knowledge of magic, but the more I understand, the more boundless I feel... Even though I am already in a high position, I still can't help but feel insignificant."
"What Your Majesty said is true."
Galio nodded in agreement.
He couldn't help laughing, and even put down the ancient book he had been holding in his hand.
"I have had similar sighs more than once. Perhaps this is what we as people pursue... explore the unknown, find the truth, solve our own confusion, and complete the enlightenment of wisdom..."
Galio said, pointing to the bookshelf behind Chen Lun.
"I envy Your Majesty for being able to read so many books in one week. If I also had such a talent, I wouldn't have wasted hundreds of years... To be honest, you are more suitable for taking the magic path. Maybe you can witness Your Majesty in the future. Become eternal and light the way forward for us, it’s a pity.”
His tone didn't sound like he was lying, but Chen Lun just shook his head humbly. Galio was silent for a long time, then suddenly said:
"Your Majesty, are you interested in doing me a favor?"
Chen Lun's eyes flashed, and he secretly said that he had a mission.
He chuckled and said:
"It doesn't matter."
"It can be seen that Your Majesty Jack wants to draw parallels and learn from the knowledge of magic to enhance the power of destiny... Although I, Galio Acchido, am not a famous scholar of the Madman School, I also want to follow the steps of the sages and explore More truth.”
Administrator Galio looked serious.
"I quite admire your majesty's lofty intentions, but I'm afraid I don't have the courage to touch the power of the adjacent path... so I only plan to absorb and learn from the knowledge of the other two schools, hoping to integrate the respective advantages of the three major schools of idol, all things and madman. , perfect your own magic research.”
He shook his head slowly and said with a hint of emotion:
"My incarnation needs to take care of this place, and I have never been able to put the plan into practice. If you can, if you can collect the knowledge and even creations of the other two schools, I hope you can give them to me, and I will also give them to you. How about some reward? ”
[Trigger A-level hidden mission: School Research]
Task description: Galio, the librarian of St. Byron, plans to conduct research on the three major schools, but the incarnation is unable to go out and entrusts you to help collect relevant things for him.
Mission goal: Provide the knowledge or creations of the Idol School and the School of Everything to Galio.
(Note: Both quantity and quality will affect the final reward!)
Mission reward: 200,000 experience points, 500 Langabo, Galio's favorability, and unknown rewards. (Magical creations, knowledge or Galio's treasures of the School of Madmen)
Chen Lun thought for a moment and then silently accepted the task.
Immediately after pretending to ponder for a while, he nodded and replied:
"Okay."
"Then please Mian Mian."
Galio adjusted his glasses and chuckled happily. (End of chapter)
