Chapter 110: Chapter 89: Clearing the Night Division
East Saint Academy is one of the few schools in the western district of the Outer City, all of which were established by the official authority of Dongwu City, and the teachers inside are all professionals with high salaries.
Moreover, the students studying here do not have to pay tuition fees, and those with excellent grades can even receive scholarships, allowing them to advance to noble schools in the Inner City.
Just like Baiyi was in the Capital City, before his translocation, he relied on scholarships and Miss Diane to live so well, eventually becoming a Level 21 Alchemist.
This type of school, with no admission barriers and free entry for ages 6 to 16, is quite populated, and being noon now, the vast campus is brimming with youthful vitality.
From half-ter-tall dwarfs to two-ter-tall beastn, they can be seen everywhere, and even goblins, seemingly with no potential and just here to get by, are plentiful.
Because the Federation does not hinder any intelligent beings from seeking education, after all, though goblins as a race may not excel much, there are individual differences. For example, there are goblin scholars in the Capital City.
Race does not determine everything, in the Federation’s eyes, they are rely beings with different starting points.
"Lord City Lord, should we first ask the students to leave and settle them down?"
Looking at the children either reading or playing, even falling in love below the teaching building, Baiyi gently inquired.
"No need." Eric had a bit of nostalgia in his eyes; a long ti ago, the school he attended wasn’t this good. Now, hundreds of years have passed, and in his hands, an opportunity to change one’s life can finally be given to more people.
He mused: "Look, this is the passing of the torch, you are the City Lord now, even if the finances are tight, the school’s budget shouldn’t be reduced."
"I understand." Baiyi walked with Eric, nodding in agreent: "However, moving forward, I plan to establish so new schools, like military academies, where students can enter the legion’s reserve forces after graduation, or professional-specific institutes. Splitting the schools ans those with good grades or right talents can receive more targeted education."
He never thought of cutting the school’s budget; everyone with insight knows what these schools represent.
Eric nodded satisfactorily: "You’re the City Lord, you handle it as you see fit."
During their conversation, the two already stood before an old teaching building. Demacia didn’t specify a location, and neither Baiyi nor the Old City Lord asked.
After all, once the specific location is known, whether it’s Baiyi’s powerful spiritual power or the Old City Lord’s perception, they can clearly spot anomalies.
This anomaly is not an underground space but a hidden array set underground, which is hard to sense, but only if the sensing person isn’t aware of the space below.
Otherwise, the spiritual power probe and targeted perception can detect the difference between the array and stone.
It’s lunchti right now, so this teaching building doesn’t have many students. Eric and Baiyi arrived at a place behind the building where old items were stored.
Baiyi sensed for a mont, cleared away so old desks, and pointed to a seemingly ordinary floor, saying to the City Lord: "Hidden array, warning device, defense magic, it’s sowhat troubleso."
Eric walked forward with a smile.
Boom~
A heavy wave of magic power erged, enveloping that area completely, and in an instant, a plot of land rose, revealing a deep passageway.
Eric pointed out in an instructive manner: "Be it technology or magic, as long as you have enough power, then no technique is needed; just bypass what they protect, and they won’t send inside alerts."
Baiyi followed Eric into the dim passageway, listening to the City Lord’s guidance. Looking up, he was sowhat astonished.
If the defense chanism here was a door with a lock, then the City Lord crudely removed the walls around the door.
The door wasn’t broken, nor opened, so naturally, it wouldn’t trigger any chanisms.
As the two walked inside, the robust magic power gently lowered the land behind them, restoring the original look.
The passage was very deep, with no light underground, giving those walking above a sense of unease.
They roughly walked downwards for about two hundred ters, reaching the end of the staircase, where a space with warm-colored lighting appeared ahead.
Murmurs could be heard, indicating people inside.
Hiss~
A subtle sound erged as worker bees silently flew forward, releasing so hard-to-detect gas.
The City Lord kept silent and calmly walked inside.
"What... uh..."
A questioning sound hadn’t quite escaped before a short, urgent groan issued, followed by a series of thuds.
[You used Alchemy Poison to kill a Level 28 Mage, due to the large level gap, experience value significantly reduced, experience value
30.]
[You used Alchemy Poison to kill a Level 25 Alchemist...]
With such a high level gap, apart from the mage, the others didn’t react before they were dead.
When Baiyi and the Old City Lord reached this space, there were no survivors left, and so machinery was softening under a special highly poisonous substance, losing their original effect.
Eric looked at Baiyi with so confusion, but said nothing, calmly surveying the surroundings.
It was a room similar to an archive room, and those dead had so paper docunts in hand, looking sowhat disorganized as if planning to evacuate.
