Chapter 545 Secret Talk
This morning.
On the top floor of the "Wisdom" main building on the left side of St. Byron's College, in the principal's office.
"This is our first meeting, Your Majesty Jack."
An old man with gray hair was sitting on a chair, smiling and speaking to the gentleman in black hat on the other side of the table.
"Yes, Principal Hugo."
Chen Lun nodded lightly.
"Thank you very much for agreeing to my request to serve in the college. The environment here and the collection of books in the big library are very helpful to my research."
Principal Hugo returned last night. The news was told to him by the librarian Galio, so he came to visit early this morning.
"It's nothing. Scholar Suraya and Master Carmen both explained the reasons in their letters. On the contrary, I think it is a matter of great honor that the academy can become a place for Your Majesty to study the power of mythology."
Hugo said with a smile.
Chen Lun didn't know whether the old principal was sincere, but he didn't care, as long as his goal was achieved.
"By the way, Principal Hugo, the secondary building on the east side of the teaching building is a bit old and may need to be renovated. Also, I heard last time in the library that many students said that the desks and chairs in the college were too decayed and that they should buy some. Approval of new ones..."
Chen Lun put down his teacup and smiled casually.
"Thanks to the help of the college, I plan to donate a sum of money. I wonder what the principal would like?"
"Of course I'm happy to accept it."
Principal Hugo's eyes flashed with surprise, but his expression remained the same smile.
"Well, I plan to donate 100,000 langagebo to express my gratitude...and another 100,000 langagebo to repay the college's education to Lucy Payne, a student I once had a relationship with." She plans to study with me in the future, and I agree.”
Chen Lun said.
Hugo immediately understood the meaning of his words.
This is actually equivalent to using money to offset the cultivation given to Lucy by the academy in exchange for her freedom, so that the future will be clear. Of course, the so-called cultivation, to put it bluntly, is the extraordinary knowledge of two galaxies...
"Too many, Your Majesty Jack."
Hugo shook his head.
Although he didn't care about this huge sum of money, he also knew that the college's kindness to Lucy was not worth 100,000 yuan, and he didn't want to take advantage of it.
"Not much, Principal Hugo. I still need your nod to let Mr. Galio give him the extraordinary knowledge of the Star Path... After all, I don't have the corresponding knowledge at hand, so I can't give Lucy much guidance."
Chen Lun smiled.
Hugo couldn't help being slightly startled when he heard this, and then smiled.
"So that's it..."
He thought for a while and finally nodded in agreement.
"Since it is His Majesty Jack's request, I will make the decision personally and give all the extraordinary knowledge from Sequences Nine to Sequence Five of the Star Path to His Majesty."
"Thank you."
Chen Lun thanked him softly.
He didn't know what he thought of, coughed, raised his head again and asked:
"Principal Hugo, can you also give me the extraordinary knowledge of the three paths of the sun, the deep sea and the earth...my other students may be able to use it."
The scene suddenly went cold for a few seconds.
Principal Hugo opened his mouth slightly, his smile a little stiff, and finally said in a deep voice:
"This may not be..."
"I will donate another 200,000 Lan Jiabo, principal."
Chen Lun said seriously.
"It's not about money, Your Majesty Jack, it's about..."
"Half a million langagebo."
Chen Lun slowly stood up from the chair with a polite smile on his face.
"I think the building on the west side should also be renovated..."
Even though Principal Hugo is a high-ranking saint, he was surprised by this huge amount, but he still shook his head and declined:
"Your Majesty Jack, you have misunderstood. Knowledge is not a commodity. It cannot be bought with money."
"Principal Hugo, you should also know that although mid- and low-sequence extraordinary knowledge is precious, it is also circulated in the mysterious field. These five hundred thousand blue gabo completely exceed their value. It is just a matter of the length of collection time. ”
Chen Lun persuaded him sincerely.
"And I don't want the knowledge of magic, I just add the three paths just mentioned... My students need it."
"This..."
Principal Hugo looked at the serious expression on the black hat gentleman's face and the last words echoed in his ears. After a few seconds of silence, he couldn't help but smile and shake his head.
"Well, you did convince me."
"Principal Hugo, on behalf of the students, I would like to express my gratitude to you."
Chen Lun took off his hat and bowed slightly.
He was actually sure that the other party would agree. After all, this knowledge was only of low-to-middle order and was not a magical path valued by the Madman School. Therefore, with the huge sum of money and "Jack Speight's face", Hugo would definitely agree if he was not stupid.

That afternoon, Chen Lun got the extraordinary knowledge he wanted from the administrator Galio in the secret collection room on the fifth floor of the library.
"His Majesty Jack, thank you for your huge donation, but I have to remind you... studying the knowledge of adjacent pathways is already very dangerous, and the knowledge of non-adjacent pathways will not only be of no benefit to this pathway, but will also bring Great harm.”
Galio pushed two stacks of thick books over and said solemnly.
"Thank you for the reminder, His Majesty Galio."
Chen Lun smiled slightly.
"These are just for my students, I will not delve into them myself."
"So that's the case, then your student is really lucky to meet a strong and responsible tutor like you..."
Galio chuckled.
Chen Lun nodded modestly, took these books and walked to the corner of the secret library, and started reading alone.
Hua Hua...
Soon, in less than ten minutes, the sequence knowledge contained in these books was memorized by Chen Lun.
The panel will pop up a prompt box in due course——
[Having mastered the seven extraordinary knowledge of the Ten Paths Sequence, blessing the "knowledge collector" to be promoted...]
[Having mastered the extraordinary knowledge of the Sixth Sequence of Ten Pathways, I wish the "knowledge collector" to be promoted...]
[Having mastered the five extraordinary knowledge of the Ten Path Sequences, I wish the "knowledge collector" to be promoted...]

'The stamp collection plan of extraordinary knowledge, I have mastered all the middle and low sequences without knowing it... In addition, I also mastered the sequence four and sequence three of flesh and blood, conspiracy, nature, magic and destiny, as well as the black sun path. Sequence four knowledge. ’
Chen Lun thought to himself, with a satisfied expression on his face.
‘Now that I have the fifth-level knowledge collector’s blessing, I can get more experience and points by reading books in the future, which is great. ’
A certain mine boss was quite touched at this moment.
Donate to do good deeds, and you will be rewarded...

A few days later, a new Monday.
Chen Lun came to the fifth floor of the library to read as usual.
Galio at the registration desk left his seat for the first time and walked straight towards him. He stood two meters apart after approaching him, and then whispered:
"I'm sorry to disturb Your Majesty's interest... It's just that Principal Hugo suddenly invited me for something and asked me to convey it to you. If you are free, you might as well go to his office."
"Well, I understand, thank you for letting me know."
Chen Lun responded with a smile, quickly closed the dark-covered mythological book in his hand, and stood up with his white cane.
The next second.
He took one step forward and disappeared.
Instead, he appeared at the door of the principal's office.
Tuk Tuk...
Chen Lun knocked on the door lightly.
"Please come in."
Principal Hugo's voice came from inside.
Chen Lun pushed the door open and saw the old principal standing by the window overlooking the college environment outside. As he came in, Hugo turned around slowly and said with a smile:
"Your Majesty Jack, I have something to ask you for help."
"Huh?"
Chen Lun was a little confused.
The old principal did not mince words and explained directly:
"This time when I went to the Miracle Academy exchange meeting, I learned some news from an old friend. The former magic god Honorino, the Miracle Knight, left some traces in the Netherworld... I thought about it for two days. , I finally made up my mind to explore it. I wonder if you are interested in joining us? ”
Saying that, Hugo also took out his bargaining chip.
A polyhedral crystal ball, two high-level moon mysterious substances and a dusty vintage pocket watch.
"Of course, these are rewards. Your Majesty can choose any one."
The task prompt box pops up.
[Trigger A-level side mission: Journey to the Netherworld]
Mission description: Principal Hugo of St. Byron College has been following the footsteps of the sages. This time he learned the news about the "Miracle Knight" Honorino, and plans to go to the underworld to explore, and invites you to participate.
Mission goal: Help Hugo find the traces left by Honorino.
Mission reward: 80W experience points, 1000 Langabo, Hugo's favorability and Hugo's collection (choose one of three).
Chen Lun calmly opened the "treasure" details. The polyhedral crystal ball and the retro pocket watch were both A-level artifacts. The former had a strong divination effect, while the latter was a rare storage artifact. The space contained inside was It is ten times the size of the Blood Poem Ring and has a ten-second history retrospective effect.
‘They are all good things…’
he thought.
But Chen Lun didn't know much about Netherworld.
In his previous life, he was only in the Moon Path sequence. The version at that time had just reached version 2.1. He only had a partial understanding of the so-called star world, nether world and dream world, and was completely unqualified to touch such high-end information.
‘But this is a good opportunity to learn a little bit about it, but...’
Chen Lun thought for a moment, then raised his head and said to the old principal:
"Principal Hugo, I am happy to participate in the exploration of the underworld with you, but although these three items are rare, they are not what I want..."
"Oh? What does Your Majesty Jack want?"
Principal Hugo was not angry, but said with a smile.
"The principle of equal exchange has always been followed between mages. There are certain dangers in traveling to the Netherworld, so you may wish to state your request and I will try my best to satisfy you."
Chen Lun nodded lightly.
Then, he took out the black book that Lucy accidentally picked up.
"Principal Hugo also knows that the purpose of my coming to St. Byron College is to study high-level power and deeply develop the abilities of this pathway by absorbing the knowledge of adjacent pathways... So I want a magical mythology book like this."
He believed that with Hugo's identity and status, it was impossible not to have such a collection.
Sure enough, after thinking for a long time, the old principal nodded in agreement.
"I have two similar books that I can give to Your Majesty as a reward."
"Thank you."
Chen Lun felt happy in his heart and smiled softly.
"Then please make some preparations, Your Majesty Jack. We will meet at the 'Bridge of Thoughts' at 11:30 tonight. At that time, we will officially enter the Netherworld at zero o'clock... In addition, I also invited a helper, 'The Veil Witch' Under the crown of Brayin.”
The old principal continued.
Chen Lun was a little surprised, remembering the battle of Nabil Forest Castle. At that time, he had killed the opponent's incarnation and had conflicts with it.
However, with his current strength, he has nothing to fear. If the other party is walking safely, he can treat it as if nothing happened. But if he takes the opportunity to retaliate, then he might as well kill him in the Netherworld...
As for the old principal?
‘I believe what the great scholar Suraya said is right, this is an old guy who assesses the situation. ’
Chen Lun's face was as usual, his eyes were deep. (End of chapter)
