MTL - The Last King of Darkness-Chapter 72 Chief Dean
Along the way, the head of the department did not speak, and the two came to the academic castle in the academic affairs area of the college in silence.
Miller took him into the central hall of the castle, where Rhodes met Vera, Barger, and Byrne, the deans of the three branches, as well as the chief dean Theodore.
The atmosphere was serious, and it didn't seem like a good thing.
Has the purchase of a hunter's license been discovered?
Rhodes was a little nervous, even if the ten groups were deducted 50 points, it was nothing more than re-ranking at the bottom.
If the hunter's license is detained, wouldn't his subsequent series of plans fail?
"Your Excellency President, Rhodes has already brought it." Miller bowed slightly and said expressionlessly.
"It's hard work Millar, sit down."
Theodore raised his blue eyes and his tone was very relaxed, but the iron-like expressions of the three branch deans kept the atmosphere from melting.
"And Rhodes, don't be nervous, you also sit down."
He took out a document from his arms, with a black head and the words "Internal Affairs Judgment" on it.
"You went to the Defense Department of the Iron Cross District this morning and participated in a high-threat hunting mission, is that so?"
Rhodes nodded.
"The hunt was successful, didn't it?"
Rhodes nodded.
"No team member died or suffered irreparable damage to you, and you didn't make any mistakes of principle, did you?"
"Your Excellency the Chief Dean." Vera, the Dean of the First Branch, interrupted: "You can't ask that, the point is not this."
Theodore's blue eyes behind black square glasses looked at him: "Vera, I think that's the point."
"No! This has nothing to do with the battle rules of the royal city, and it has nothing to do with the golden law we engraved on the Great Holy Grail."
Vera is a middle-aged man with a square face and rigid lines. Every wrinkle is cut like a knife and axe, and his voice is like steel.
He turned his head and looked at Rhodes seriously.
"Are you an official combatant? Do you have a combat qualification from the Heidler training ground? Do you have a combat order from the academy, the War Department, or the Supreme Council?"
Rhodes moved in his heart and wanted to explain, but Vera interrupted him directly.
"Answer yes, or no!"
Rhodes was silent for a few seconds.
"no."
Vera turned his eyes to the chief dean with a blank expression:
"Look, things are already clear, Rhodes ignored Wangcheng's combat regulations, regarded dangerous tasks as a game, and put his teammates in a dangerous place of death. According to the punishment rules, he should be expelled from the academy and handed over to the Internal Affairs Tribunal. deal with."
Byrne, the third dean, hesitated: "Vera, is this too strict? There is no need to do this."
Vera said coldly: "The letter from the Internal Affairs Tribunal has been sent, and we act according to the law. There is no problem with the procedure. Otherwise, the problem is us. Do you still want to do it with your teaching system?"
The second branch dean Bagger frowned: "But this is obviously unreasonable. Successful cases without serious consequences are generally not investigated."
Vera said indifferently: "No general, this matter cannot be inferred from the results. This time I got lucky, what about next time? What about next time? If everyone does this like him, one day it will happen. Big disaster. This matter is within the jurisdiction of the Internal Affairs Tribunal, and the pressure on the academy is already great enough, and we cannot be blamed any more."
Everyone fell silent.
Rhodes felt a chill creep up the back of his head along his back, and he knew as soon as he heard it that it must be the iron mask Manorobana who was playing tricks on him, framing him with things that were reasonable in fact but unreasonable in terms of rules.
This is the typical bureaucrat of power. They wave the stick of the rules and look for your gaps like flies. You can only be beaten passively, but you can't fight back, because he cleverly shrinks behind the main body of the rules, like a fox in front of a tiger.
The only way to deal with such a person is a higher and greater power.
Rhodes knew this early on.
But why is this so?
Doesn't he have the support of the other three chief judges?
Doubts echoed in his heart, and Rhode was very nervous. If he was handed over like this, it would be bad.
At this moment, Miller said, "I remember that Rhodes is a special student."
Vera said indifferently: "Special students do not have the support of regulations in this regard."
"Have."
Miller looked at him blankly.
The indifference on both sides made the air a little colder.
Chief Dean Theodore's blue eyes looked over, and there was a faint appreciation in his eyes.
"Yes, Vera."
He said softly, his long silver beard shaking slightly, showing his cheerful mood.
"Khalil's inhuman voice and our cooperation, the secret force branch among the special students, have operational authorization."
Vera's face was still as cold as ice, and there was no change: "But the final personnel have not yet been determined."
Theodore's blue eyes looked over the silver-white beard, with a hint of a smile:
"I'm sure, this morning."
Byrne and Bagg came back to their senses, looked at each other, and smiled together: "Yes, we are sure, they are the most special and the earliest familiar students, and they have the combat authorization of the Kalier hidden unit."
"it is good."
Vera said coldly.
"That's how I reply to the Internal Affairs Tribunal."
He stood up and left the room.
As if the cold winter had passed, the temperature in the room had risen visibly to the naked eye.
The two sub-deans exhaled at the same time: "Little guy, since you entered the academy, you have caused us a lot of trouble."
"Be safe, don't make trouble. Your authority file is still part of the Internal Affairs Tribunal. Your business is also very difficult for the academy."
Miller pursed his lips and said solemnly, "Rod, I don't know what's wrong with you, and who you have any grudge against, but I think you can stay in the academy with peace of mind for a year, and all the difficulties have passed."
Rhode nodded honestly, but he knew in his heart that if he really did what she said, the grass on his grave would be about three meters high in a year.
Cassan was just in time to burn him ten years of first-year medals.
Fortunately, the critical assembly did not last long.
Chief Dean Theodore stood up, his tall body almost touched the roof, and his silver beard drowned the teacups on the table like a waterfall.
"Bag, Byrne, you are very busy and don't have time to delay here. Miller, you should go and talk to the tenth group of students. They must be very worried. Rhodes, come to my office."
The two deans patted Rhodes on the shoulders and walked out of the room.
Miller pursed his lips and looked at him for a moment: "You really should change your Tinder name, or people will keep making fun of you."
"well-done."
She said at last, and walked out of the room.
Rhodes was stunned for a while, but he didn't expect that the serious department head would actually support him.
After calming down, he pushed open the inner door and came to the office of the chief dean of Kingworth College.
This is a very spacious and beautiful room, full of all kinds of strange things, huge bookshelves and translucent glass cabinets are the main furniture, Theodore is sitting behind a large mahogany table with a A silver tripod, a complex sphere mechanism, a solidified fireball huddled in a birdcage, a black sea urchin in a glass jar.
And the tall principal was holding a stone basin and staring at it carefully.
A white mist filled the stone basin.
"Rod."
He said in a relaxed tone.
"Let's see what's in this stone basin."
Rhode walked over carefully and noticed that the solidified fireball was approaching him, and the sea urchin also quietly opened its eyes and looked at him secretly.
Are these things alive?
The messy thoughts flashed through his mind, and Rhodes came to the stone basin and carefully opened the eyes of his soul.
The chief dean didn't have any special reaction, and was still looking at the stone basin intently.
Gu Mu
Rhodes breathed a sigh of relief, he was afraid that the legendary chief dean would see through his secret.
He lowered his eyes and looked into the stone basin.
The white mist gradually faded, and a beautiful woman with tall blonde hair appeared, about twenty-seven or eight years old, wearing very cool clothes, only underwear and shorts, her dazzling long white thighs and plump figure made people jealous.
She stood in front of a lake, the clear water was as blue as the sky, with green grass under her feet, and a huge white tree only partially visible in the distance.
The blond woman was looking at them and laughing, she turned gracefully, as if to show off her perfect figure, her appearance was somehow familiar.
Rhodes raised his head with a complicated expression.
isn't it?
Are you such a dean?
Hiding in the office every day looking at pretty girls?
Theodore raised his blue eyes, his eyes full of wisdom as if to see through his heart: "So, you see the image?"
That is, you didn't see it?
Rhodes moved in his heart and nodded.
Theodore smiled and said, "You really are a complete visionary."
Rhodes was slightly taken aback: "Don't you know?"
Theodore shook his head and put the stone basin aside.
"We know a lot less than you think. The Internal Affairs Tribunal has listed your files as top secret, and blocked a lot of information about you from the Academy. In theory, we shouldn't even know what your Tinder name is. ."
Rhodes was a little unacceptable. Kingworth College did not have the authority of the Internal Affairs Tribunal.
Theodore seemed to know what he was thinking, and said with a smile: "Each one has different responsibilities. The Internal Affairs Tribunal is responsible for all internal affairs, and it has the greatest unshakable right to speak on this."
He took out two silver cups from under the table.
"any drinks?"
Rhode was stunned for a moment. He had never been a guest at someone else's house and didn't understand the customs here, so he used a witty answer:
"Just like you."
Theodore smiled and shook his head: "Grass tea may not be suitable for you, should you drink black tea?"
Rhodes nodded.
Theodore took out two silver pots and poured tea ingredients into the two silver cups respectively. With a flick of his slender fingers, a cloud of clean water floated out from the washbasin in the bathroom.
The solidified fireball jumped out of the bird cage and took a bath in the water.
The water boiled and poured into two cups like a waterfall.
"Drink."
Theodore brought the silver cup to Rhodes, picked up his cup of turquoise tea, and took a sip.
"Well, the temperature is just right."
Are you a tough mouth?
Rhode didn't dare to slap his mouth rashly, he held the cup, carefully glanced at the fireball, it danced a strange tap dance in the birdcage, and asked softly: "Your Excellency President, you called me here, what's the matter? ?"
Theodore put down the glass and said gently: "Rod, you may have an adventurous heart, but you must know that only a towering tree will not be knocked down by a storm."
Rhode's heart sank.
If the chief dean insists on locking him up in the academy, then it is impossible for him to go out, and the follow-up actions will be greatly affected.
no.
Rhodes' thinking turned sharply.
I can't agree like this, I have to find a way to convince him.
"So, you should come to me sooner."
Uh?
Rhodes opened his mouth, and the words fell in his throat before he could say it.
Theodore took a silver whistle from his bosom and put it in his hand.
"This is a talisman I made. Using a little of my soul fragment, it can summon my phantom. It can deal with monsters below the super-level super-level, and can also escape from the hands of the fierce-level high-level monsters."
His blue eyes looked at him, a little reproach in his eyes.
"If you are in danger, use it. Before the spiritual energy contained in it is exhausted, you can take it back and find me."
Rhode took the whistle, and suddenly a warm current poured out of his heart.
He didn't know how to express his gratitude, so he had to cover up his embarrassment by drinking black tea.
What the hell!
The water is open!
"Oh."
Theodore flicked his fingers lightly, and Rhode felt that the scalded location was much cooler, and the heat in the black tea rose quickly, like a small tornado.
"I always forget that your psionic power is very low, Rhodes, you need to practice more. You will know later that psionic power means more than you think."
"Well, what am I going to say?"
He supported his forehead with one hand, and the light of psionic energy flashed rapidly on his temples, as if he was trying to recall something.
"Sorry, my memory is a little confused. I just wanted to say that the secret troops of special students have been established, and you will follow them to carry out some official combat missions outside the city, so you must study more, especially about official combat. part."
Rhodes asked, "What is the hidden force? Who is Khalil?"
The psionic flash on the chief dean's temple became more rapid, and his tone became a little stiff.
"Khalil's hidden troop is a special combat group. It has three other combatants, namely, the White Spirit Bearer, the Black Spirit Bearer, and the Unawakened. They are very precocious and have strong combat effectiveness, but they are very dangerous. ...Oh, no, I shouldn't have told you that."
Theodore's tone softened.
"Don't worry, the secret troops of special students are relatively normal. We won't allow lunatics to test the students... In fact, I don't agree with the plan itself. Carlier's thinking is too dangerous and not suitable for students at all. Contact, but the pressure of the academy is too great. The elders accuse us of investing too much in ordinary students, and ask us to invest more energy in training the strong, and give up useless waste. For example, the Star of Kingworth should be cancelled... oh, I'm sorry, I'm in a bit of a bad state today~www.novelbuddy.com~ He stood up and changed the subject to a lighthearted one.
"By the way, what did you see in the stone basin just now?"
Rhodes was stunned for a few seconds before he regained his senses. He described the scene he had seen, and silently hoped that it would not be the former lover of the chief dean.
After listening, Theodore's expression became quite nostalgic.
"So that's what it is, that's what Kashan meant back then."
isn't it?
Rhodes had a rather unpleasant feeling.
Theodore's blue eyes flickered:
"Rod, don't get me wrong, she is Kashan's grandmother, also called Kashan."
"Like her great-granddaughter, she was even more flat than me before the age of sixteen, so what I want to say is, don't miss it."
Theodore gave a narrow smile and tucked his silver beard into his belt.
"It's getting late, let's go eat, there are raspberry jam and strange cakes in the college dining hall today, I'm going to starve to death, you must be very hungry, right?"
He waved his hand, and the whole person turned into a ball of silver light and flew out of the window.
Rhode was stunned for a while before realizing that he should have left the office.
Taking one last look at the strange objects on the table, he also left the room.

A squire respectfully handed over the reply from Kingworth College.
After reading it, Manolo Robana showed a cold smile.
