"You must be mentally prepared, which is destined to be a tragedy. I cannot guarantee that the blueprints within the academy will make you a shadow forever," Li Yi patted Cassius's shoulder and whispered in his ear: "Don't be too limited in your heart, have you not noticed? You have been following the academy's script. What if the finale of this drama ends with your tragedy? It's time to execute your own script."
"you mean?"
"If you have the chance, kill him, so that there will be no nemesis in this world. When the three spirits of the Bruce contract are the nemesis of your spirit, you will be destined to kill him." Li Yi whispered this bloody sentence into his ears.
Cassius shivered, not because this suggestion was horrifying, but because he was really moved. Bruce also had an identity as the fourth prince of the Holy Pompeii Empire, and he was a resident of an ordinary place. Because of the awakening of the explorer's talent, he was sent to the Imperial Academy and was discovered to be talented and righteous, so he was valued. At that time, he was still young and ignorant. From his own perspective today, he was just a rough child without ethics. After learning etiquette for more than ten years and understanding the truth, he developed this temperament.
When I saw Bruce, although he was still young, the noble aura of a ruler was deeply remembered by him. It was his natural temperament.
I remember my mood at that time, and I was completely shocked. The thought of self-satisfaction arose from my heart, just like a mole living in a crypt for a long time, suddenly seeing the sun.
"Well, maybe the royal tradition is like this, but it is actually useless. You use the time of training etiquette to improve spiritual perception, train spirits, and find opportunities. Now it is far better than Bruce. You feel ashamed of yourself, which only means that your heart is not strong enough, or that it cannot be strong enough to support your self-esteem." Li Yi commented.
"I was jealous later, but gradually I found that such temperament could be developed after all, so I am spotless and tall and noble now." Cassius looked down at his luxurious outfit, but his expression was a little lonely. This was not the change he wanted, but just to stand up straight in front of that person.
"Are you what you need to surpass Bruce, or even replace it?" Li Yi suddenly asked, "Didn't you think about what to do after surpassing?"
"After I surpassed it, my life became much simpler. I could cultivate quietly, become the top explorer on the mainland, and live happily ever after."
"This... don't you think this goal is too empty? There is no bigger goal?" Li Yi was a little surprised. The other party planned his life completely with the goal of surpassing Bruce.
"Well, maybe there will be some in the future, but this is the case at this stage."
Cassius arranged a lodging for them near his villa, and in two days the Olympia summit competition would begin.
As soon as Paul entered the room, he shouted: "This new dress is so tight, it's so uncomfortable to wear it on it. If it weren't for the big plan he said, I wouldn't torture myself like this. As a result, that big plan was that he competed with others for the so-called face and got us in."
"So, what do you mean? Do you want to win this game or just let Cassius fail? Anyway, his treasure trove belongs to us." Li Yi asked calmly.
"Well, first of all, since it's a game, why do you lose? Isn't the game against others just to win? Secondly, although that guy Cassius is a bit too arrogant, he still doesn't want him to die like this. Maybe we will become good friends. These are all things in the future." Paul glanced at Li Yi and asked vigilantly: "I can't see through you guy, but if you deliberately let Cassius lose, I will definitely not let you go!"
"It's very childish intimidation, and you don't need to doubt me, because the competition is for winning, otherwise I won't participate. In addition, not seeing through me means that your wisdom and experience are not enough. Don't be alert to others just because of your ignorance. This is very impolite." Li Yi didn't care about the other party's intimidation.
"The most terrifying thing about you is that you can speak in a vain. Anything that is not good for you will be denied as a fallacy by you using so-called logic. Perhaps it is because I don't have enough knowledge and don't understand people like you. But being vigilant is always good, and I hope you don't mind." Paul bowed slightly to Li Yi and apologized.
Being wary of others and being wary of is commonplace, and Li Yi doesn't care. Anyway, others are not alert to you or want to plot against you, which will have a certain deterrent effect.
He also returned to his room and suddenly remembered that it was rare to come to Pompeii. He had not made a good move yet. Looking at the traces of history and the scenes of human activities, he discovered and understood what a joyful thing it was! He had forgotten all the things about the past of the duck soup noodles.
The next morning, it was drizzling in the sky. The cold weather did not hinder Li Yi's interest. He found a red paper umbrella in the closet and was about to call Paul to go with him, but the guy slept very hard and went out directly.
The Imperial Academy gives people the ultimate classical feeling. Each plant is trimmed into a conservative shape. The lawn is fine and neat, and the dark green square tiles are paved. Although it is elegant, it is too gloomy. There are few reliefs in the buildings, all of which are arched windows and gray marble walls.
The students in the academy obviously follow etiquette, walking on the right, and talking to each other in a formal greeting, as if this has become a habit.
This is different from the completely indulgent education of Sky College. However, if you think about it carefully, good working and rest habits are also beneficial for people to control their own bodies. If they are healthy, their hearts will become stronger.
When he was at Sky Academy, Li Yi also slept regularly every day, and was full of energy, confidence increased, and his body became stronger.
No matter what city, you will always smell the fragrance of bread in the morning. The grains become golden and expand in the furnace, and will emit a mature fragrance from the inside out. This is the deliciousness given to us by the earth, which allows people to enjoy the joy of harvest. Therefore, the grains have the smell of rain, sunshine, moon, dew, soil, sweat, fireflies, and perhaps a little night fragrance and gardenia. It is the fragrance of flowers left by the girl when she walks through the fields.
After buying bread and sitting in the cafe, Li Yi was in a better mood. The green Explorer badge hanging on his chest worked very well, and his identity became noble in an instant.
Suddenly, his heart was shocked. A tall young man wearing purple, black, scarlet piping toga came in. The man looked very handsome, with his eyes hanging high, his eyes as painted as paint, and his black and white were clearly distinguished. Although his clothes and expression were eye-catching, he was not aggressive, his behavior was decent and rigorous. The ostentatious aura could not be suppressed. It could be seen that this was an excellent person with good control.
"Who are you?" Li Yi suspected that this person had some relationship with Bruce, and he guessed it right.
"I am a lobbyist, Bruce's lobbyist, of course, also represents the official of the Imperial Academy and the entire Pompeii Empire." The young man showed his identity, and his restrained and very arrogant did not anger Li Yi. From this point of view, he was a very excellent lobbyist.
And he conveyed a meaning: Bruce is the orthodox of the Pompeii Empire, which is the opinion of the senior leaders of the empire. It also shows that there is no fairness in this Olympia summit competition. Although Cassius would not lose, Bruce's victory has been written in the blueprint of the empire's design.
"Get out, I have no interest in negotiating with the enemy, before I want to kill you." Li Yi waved his hand.
"Do you think it's amazing to be a green explorer at a young age? People like you are grabbing a lot of people in the Imperial Academy. I just convey the information of the high-level imperial leadership to you in form. Don't be ungrateful!" The lobbyist's face obviously had anger, "It seems that there is no one to choose from Cassius, and even things like you are ignorant of life and death."
"The words are very sharp, but at best you are just an ordinary person, an ordinary person without spiritual protection." Li Yi disliked and asked Feld to arrest the young man and then fed him some medicine powder brought out from the miracle.
"What do you want to do to me? Tell you, if I am killed by you, the top leaders of the empire will not let you go! Don't mislead yourself!!" As he said, he suddenly felt a dizzy moment, and the young man who angrily scolded Li Yi and ignorantly turned into a mouse.
"The lobbyist is so ridiculous. What's ridiculous is that they often don't know their situation and think that the forces behind them can deter all the negotiation targets. Unfortunately, this is the end." Li Yi smiled and threw the mouse to the ground.
The lobbyist had not adapted to the mouse's body and wanted to walk upright, but ended up falling and fighting several times.
"Boss, you are angering the senior executives of the Imperial Academy. Isn't it inappropriate to do this?" Alger asked with some concern. With Li Yi's strength, he was not as good as having a head-on relationship with the Imperial Academy.
"No, it's very appropriate. This lobbyist, oh, it's this mouse that obviously represents Bruce's personal wishes. Do you think the Empire's official clearly supports Bruce? If that happens, they don't need to send so-called lobbyists at all, but instead add to the point of showing off their strength. Under the influence of the strong will of the group, I personally have little effect on the reverse of the situation. Bruce is just a fake tiger's power. The so-called bloodline is not important. The stronger the strength, the purer the bloodline. It's very simple. Does the Imperial Academy need a powerful junior? Or is it a useless thing except bloodline?" Li Yi thought that the meaning of the Imperial Academy was very sharp. It seems that this game has a certain degree of fairness.
Bruce sat at the long golden gilded table, and a waiter came up to become a lobbyist, putting it in a glass box. The mouse held a pen in his hand and drew some words on the glass, which meant that Li Yi had fed a strange medicine, which turned into the current picture, and some incitement, for example, such behavior was an insult to Bruce, and so on.
His master frowned, as if disgusting the dirty thing, he took a step back and covered his nose with a scarf.
"So, he refused without even listening to my conditions? What made a green-level explorer have such courage? Cassius, what are you planning? This green-level explorer is also very doubtful. Is he hiding his strength and turning people into mice is obviously a common method used by the God-Selected Ones. It is really suspicious..." He said to himself.
Then he waved his hand in disgust, "Take this mouse out and buried it."
"Buried alive?" The waiter shivered and said that this was a living person. It was terrible to bury alive with his own hands.
"It's so hard that you want to let it stay here? It's almost buried!"
"yes."
Not long after, another lobbyist also returned to report: "Dear Lord Bruce, Paul of Kurosawa College rejected your proposal. He said, "He said he was not familiar with you..."
"What a mess? Okay, okay, since you are ignorant of the sacrificing, then the Olympia summit will let you know what horror is! You will be familiar with my methods. By that time, you guys will wake up and cry and beg me to let you go."
Li Yi finally understood why Edmund mentioned Bruce in an extremely disdainful tone. Those little means without any meaning can do anything to the situation. All of this is under the scrutiny of the senior management of the college.
"Another cheese and add eggs." He was in a good mood.
Back at the residence, Paul looked at him with a thief-proof look, and after a while, he spoke, "Did those people look for you? What did you say?"
"If you suspect, I will say it clearly, can't you trust others? At least in the Dark Rock City, I saved you." Li Yi shrugged and sat on the sofa to admire the rain outside. He opened the window, and the damp water vapor and soil, and the fragrance of grass all entered his nose.
"But you also searched all the money from my sister, which was almost all the wealth of a red-level explorer!"
"This is a very legitimate deal, what do you think?" Li Yi stretched his sleeves, "If you don't want to, then I can return all the spirit crystals to you, but if you want to take this kind of powder that turns into a mouse again, I never force others to trade with me!"
"You! What a sinister villain!"
"Oh, my brother is like my sister. He is nervous and inexplicably suspicious. You can just doubt it. Anyway, I still do my own thing, and others can't change it." Li Yi smiled and said to Paul, "But I like people with your personality very much. They are straightforward and cute. Come to me if you have any difficulties in the future, but remember to bring enough spiritual crystals."
"You are just a hooligan!"
After another day, Cassius served them with delicious food and drink every day. Now it was time for the competition.
It was another rainy day. The cold rain for three consecutive days made Li Yi feel comfortable physically and mentally. It felt very good to walk in the rain with a red paper umbrella. The three of them walked through the Imperial Academy together and entered Mount Olympia from behind. There were already many red-level explorers waiting. Most of Cassius knew them and called them teachers. It seemed that the relationship was pretty good.
Chapter completed!
