Chapter 18 The Forged Sage's Stone

The piece of paper that caught Shade's attention, like The material of the parchment is suppressed by the book "Psychology and Abnormal Psychology" in one corner, but it only blocks the inscription and does not affect the main content: Blood], carrying the Secret Keeper-level relic [Forged Sage's Stone] appeared in the city of Tobesque and the surrounding areas. Offer rewards to all the Academy Correspondence Ring Warlocks in the area, and pay close attention to the trend of [Blood of Mercury]. If you submit [Forged Sage's Stone] to the Academy, you can deduct 5 practical credits for this academic year, and the academic assessment rating for this semester will be automatic. Promoted to 'Excellent', and the rest of the rewards are interviewed with Professor Rutgers of the Mechanical Academy.

Note 1: This task is extremely dangerous, and it is not recommended that students below level 3 (inclusive) directly contact the [Blood of Mercury] organization in any form.

Remark 2: For the specific information of the relic [Forged Sage's Stone], please consult the Academy for details.

Note 3: The Orthodox Church has obtained the news. If you intend to complete the mission, please be careful not to reveal your identity to the church. ]

The following is the obscured inscription, which seems to be a joint announcement issued by the St. Byrons Integrated Academy Public Affairs Office and the Mechanical Academy.

"What if I expose it to the Orthodox Church? I forgot to ask the doctor just now."

Shade thought to himself, then put the file bag on the table, and sat back on the sofa. superior.

So far, no one knows the secret that he can understand all kinds of strange languages, so the probability that this thing is faked by the doctor is not great. On the contrary, the appearance of this Academy's reward order proves that the high probability that the doctor said is true.

"However, credits and academic assessment are really frightening words. Didn't expect this kind of thing to happen in the age of steam civilization."

Shade thought silently. As he recalled his life in his hometown. This made him even more determined to contact mysterious and find a way back.

It's just didn't expect, when I arrive in the foreign world, I still have to study and take an exam. What's more, there may be a dissertation to be written.

"There are always more solutions than difficulties."

He thought to himself, waiting patiently for the doctor to come back.

Although the doctor only treated the guests not long ago, they had lunch at the goose restaurant. But because the horrific images he saw in the morning were really impressive, Shade didn't actually take a few bites.

At this time, I have plans for the future, I feel better, and the feeling of hunger comes up. So while the doctor didn't come back, I asked Mrs. Carla for some snacks, saying that she wanted afternoon tea.

The doctor probably explained that Shade was a distinguished guest, so when the maid in the floral apron knocked on the door to enter, Shade saw that she was actually carrying a china plate.

"This is Mr. Schneider's collection."

The middle-aged maid said with a smile, she looked about forty years old, a little older than the blue-eyed doctor . The plump figure is in line with Shade's imagination of middle-aged women in ordinary families in this era.

Although there is no eastern country in this world, there are still porcelains, and porcelains are still precious. Only the special soil and technology in special areas can burn such fine products.

Shade thanked Mrs. Carla and didn't care much about china plates. He looked at the delicate yellow fluffy little cake on the plate, and the red cherry on top of the cake that seemed to reflect light, and swallowed subconsciously.

"Shade, don't lose the face of the outsiders!"

The foreigner who came here for the first time said to himself in his heart, and then, unsurprisingly, he heard the woman in his mind again. That nice laughter.

It was agreed to meet at two o'clock, but the doctor never showed up. If Shade hadn't gone to the bathroom and found that no one really stopped him from wandering around, he might have wondered what trap he had fallen into.

Because this is someone else's place, so after confirming that he can leave at any time, Shade returned to the original room and waited. He didn't have the bad habit of flipping through other people's things, and he was worried about seeing documents that he shouldn't read, so he sat on the sofa bored and looked at the interior of the room.

After coming to this world for nearly 40 hours, I have a higher understanding of the development level of the current country. The characteristics of the steam age appear in all aspects of life, not only gas lamps and steam pipes, the buckles of delicate mechanical structures appearing on various furniture, the lifting platform controlled by large gears and pulleys and ropes on the side of the bookshelf, these are all Shade I have never seen in my own world.

He never thought that he could come to this kind of world. While hesitating, he also tried to exchange his knowledge for money. But he really didn't know much, and he didn't have an excellent memory that he could never forget. In fact, he was still full of unease about the next life.

Dr. Schneider only showed up at 2:30. He changed into a coat, which is now black.

When he pushed the door and came in, he began to apologize:
"I'm really sorry, something completely unexpected happened. I ordered a batch of sensitive medicines on the black market, no, don't show that This kind of expression is not for the patients of the clinic, I don't do that kind of thing. I used it for my own research on Mystic Art, and the setback came out when I received the goods. It's really bad luck."

As he spoke, he sat down again, and the maid came in with him and offered the two men a new pot of black tea:
"So, are you ready?"

The doctor was very asked solemnly, blue's eyes looked towards Shade's eyes. Shade had observed his own body in the mirror, and the color of his eyes was still the same dark brown as black, which was the same as before.

"It's decided."

Shade sat up straight and gave the same solemn answer:
"I want to try to touch that poet-level relic [Saint] Byrons Comprehensive Academy Dream]."

The doctor had a big smile on his face:

"Although my luck is not very good today, I found that Detective Hamilton, as long as Things related to you will always go well."

St. Byrons Comprehensive Academy As one of the three Mystic Art Academy, it has the ability to deliver [relics] remotely. But Shade is not yet an official ring warlock, so naturally Dr. Schneider won't let him know what the way is.

After waiting in the room alone for more than ten minutes, the doctor pushed the door in with a black cardboard box and walked in.

That's really a black carton, nothing but black. Shade didn't even know where the carton's seams were.

"[The Dream of St. Byrons Comprehensive Academy] is a product of the previous era, that is, a product of the fifth era. At that time, the Academy was just established, the legendary founder, the Thirteen Rings Miss Warlock Mana Feliciana, got this [relic] after a summer nap. This [relic] must be stored in the black space, and it is considered a [relic] with a relatively simple containment method.”

"Is the Academy only established in the last era?"

Shade was a little puzzled, he thought it was an ancient organization that inherited several epochs.

"Actually, the five orthodox churches and the three major Mystic Art Academy all appeared in the last era. Remember this common sense, the fourth era is an era of darkness and chaos, evil and distortion are rampant in the world The fifth era is the era of demoness, only women have the ability to cast spells, powerful demoness emperors are divided into the world, city-states are fighting each other, civilization has no progress in the fifth era, it is a wild and primordial era, but it is also terrifying In the sixth era, the supernatural is invisible, and human civilization has been able to progress to the present era in the hands of the ordinary person."

The doctor did not introduce the older era, and Shade did not ask, because the two Sitting on the sofa, Dr. Schneider has opened the box.

Looking around, the carton was covered with straw, and on the straw lay a delicate snuff bottle with enamel filigree, the size of a palm. The body of the pot is generally blue, with bright yellow sunflowers painted on it, which are connected with each other by golden lines, which makes people think of the pleasant time of summer.

PS: Everyone seems to be reluctant to speak. Is it because the plot is boring and there is no discussion?
