I, Zhongli, Wander the World

When I went to Tokyo this time, Zhongli didn't bring anyone with him.

Zhongyuan Zhong, who had already started school, did not mention it. Edogawa Ranbu, who had vaguely noticed something, did not go with him. He was just a little angry and even ate several desserts until Zhong Yuan Zhong, who couldn’t stand it any longer, forcibly confiscated all his possessions. of snacks.

As for Dazai...

That kid has appeared less and less recently.

Every day I go to work late and leave early, and I lose track from time to time. Even if I came to work obediently, most of the time I was looking at my mobile phone, and I didn't know who to send a quick message with.

A grown-up child has his own ideas, and Zhongli will not restrict him from taking risks, but is only related to this sudden invitation... Maybe something is finally starting to ferment.

Things that have been anticipated are not difficult to solve in general, but whether to do something about it still requires a lot of thought.

Zhongli stared at the passing scenery outside the car window, thinking quietly under the appearance of calm.

The speed of Japan's Shinkansen is not slow, and time passed quickly in thinking, but forty minutes later, he arrived at the platform in Tokyo.

Now Xia Youjie, who is a high-ranking student in the spell class, is waiting at the exit.

"Mr. Zhongli, long time no see." The young man who had grown up from a green high school to a handsome elite quickly stepped forward in a neat suit that was not common among spellcasters, and greeted him with a brisk tone.

Said to be "for a long time", in fact, it is the work of these few months. I heard that it was the family and the official who had a dispute over the establishment of the Curse National Primary School, and Xia Youjie, who was caught in the middle, was busy for a long time trying to mediate them.

Zhongli nodded, "Long time no see, hard work."

"Actually, it's over." Xia Youjie said as he opened the car door on the side, "Both sides take a step back, the noble family won't interfere in the selection of commoner minor magicians, but the magic class can't either. The core members of the family are required to be enrolled in compulsory school, and the annual enrollment target is negotiated by the family itself.”

The age of primary school is the time period when Sanguan was established. In any case, it is impossible for the people in the magic world to let their talented next generation go to the official school for the so-called "brainwashing education", and cut off the young commoners. The control of the conjurer has been their biggest concession.

If it was placed a few years ago when the spell class was just established, they would never agree to this condition.

"It's never a good thing to be complacent, let alone in terms of base numbers, the number of magicians among the commoners should far exceed that of the aristocratic family, but I never thought of excavating them in a systematic way." Zhongli commented objectively.

"I think so too." Xia Youjie, who was approved of the idea, showed a happy smile, "The first batch of children are currently receiving the guidance of teachers in high schools, and you will probably meet them there."

The two talked about recent topics and looked harmonious and friendly, tacitly not mentioning the real purpose of the trip here.

The site of Tokyo Magic High School is on a hill in the suburbs. It is sparsely populated, so all the way there is unobstructed. Soon, Zhong Li set foot on the land of the Magic School.

The enchantment shrouded in the high school was silent and did not respond to his arrival.

"In the office area, a special office for magic classes was added a few years ago. Usually, my colleagues and I work there, and some non-artist handover business is also carried out there." Xia Youjie pointed to the high school. The building introduced, "However, because the buildings in the high school occasionally change, ordinary people from the official government sometimes get lost, which is a small trouble."

Xia Youjie gradually let go of his unconscious arrogance towards ordinary people as his contacts with people without magic power gradually increased. Especially when I watched some dedicated social animals work overtime all night with energy drinks until they almost died suddenly.

Ordinary people also have the strength of ordinary people. Today's Xia Youjie is deeply convinced of this.

The road to the inside happened to pass by the training ground. Xia Youjie pointed to a few figures on the training ground in the distance and just wanted to say something, when he saw a small figure with five short statures being heavily pumped away, like a small dumpling all the way." Gulu Gulu" rolled forward.

"Sister!" A panicked cry came from the training ground.

The "little dumpling" who stopped and rolled stood up straight, rubbed the corner of his wounded mouth with his right hand, and spat out **** saliva.

"Come on! Big man!"

"Call me teacher properly, you rude little brat from the Chanyuan." A tall man in a training suit walked leisurely from the training ground and greeted Zhongli lazily, "Yo, Mr. Zhongli, come here. visit."

Zhong Li's eyes swirled around the puffy little girl beside him, and he was about to change the name he blurted out: "Mr. Shi Er, it seems that you are having a good time here."

He was keenly aware of Zhongli's change in the name of the Zen Yuan, and scratched his hair, "Ah, it's really good to be able to make money and beat the little devils as sandbags."

Except for the bounty hunter who has long since stopped washing his hands, there is indeed no high-paying job that is more suitable for him.

"Who do you say is a sandbag, big man!" The little girl waved her small fist in dissatisfaction.

"Call the teacher, kid!"

Two gunners, one big and one small, stared wide-eyed. The twin sister who exclaimed "sister" just now ran over, nervously clenched the corner of her sister's clothes, and whispered to try to persuade the fight, but it was completely overwhelmed by the tit-for-tat confrontation between the two. middle.

"Cough, as you can see, Mr. Zhongli." Xia Youjie coughed awkwardly, "These children will receive good guidance here and serve as reservists for future spell classes. Those two children are Maki and He from the Chanyuan family. Zhenyi, because of his special constitution, Mr. Shir's extra training course was specially arranged, and some children should be led by Haibara to learn theoretical knowledge at this time."

Hearing that Xia Youjie was introducing his Chanyuan Maki, he finally ended the confrontation with Chanyuan Shi Er, and greeted him as politely as he changed his face, "First meeting, Mr. Zhongli, I'm Chanyuan Maki."

Zhenyi of the Chanyuan next to her whispered, "I'm Zhenyi of the Chanyuan...the first time we met."

"Hello." Zhong Li smiled at the two little girls, "Are you satisfied with the teaching here?"

Some shy Zen Yuan Zhenyi blushed suddenly, and took a step behind her sister uncomfortably. Maki, who was clearly a little girl herself, consciously stood in front of her sister, and said generously, "Although Shi Er... Teacher is sometimes annoying, but she does have the ability to teach, I will try to empty him after I've emptied him. Defeat him, and then go back to the Chanyuan as the head of the house!"

"Do I also want to thank you for complimenting me, stinky brat!" Chanyuan said in an unhappy manner, if he hadn't wanted to see the faces of those old people after his blood cousin became the head of the family, he would have given up long ago. I took the teacher's pick to harm the curse spirit.

"The premise of realizing the ideal is to be down-to-earth. It's a good idea to have this idea." Zhong Li said, looking at Xia Youjie, "I'm looking forward to seeing the future of the magic world."

The stagnant water leads the canal, the burning salary meets the wind, so that the state of flow can get a better future.

After that, Xia Youjie took Zhong Li to visit several places in succession, including but not limited to the dormitory, classroom, and the principal's office. During this period, I met with teachers and students from colleges and universities many times, and I also attended the small class of Yu Haibara for the remaining children, and even exchanged ideas for wool felt production with the principal, Noga Masato.

As if they were really just here for sightseeing this time.

Such leisurely deceived a lot of secret observation eyes, news spread to the outside world through hidden channels, and some people who had been paying attention finally relaxed a little.

Guessing that the news that should be circulated should be in place, Xia Youjie avoided all sight and came to a door.

That is the gate to the Xingxing Palace.

"This time the matter is of great importance, and I haven't told Wu yet. I just want to ask Mr. Zhong Li to come here to get an extra layer of insurance." Xia Youjie said, "After all, this kind of thing... The more people who know about it, the more danger it will be. ."

And he subconsciously chose the most reliable **** in the concept.

Zhong Li asked directly, "But what's wrong with Tian Yuan?"

\"I knew you could guess it.\" Xia Youjie said with a wry smile, "Perhaps you also felt some changes when you passed through the barrier earlier... I suspect that something happened to Lord Tian Yuan."

Zhongli looked at him quietly and motioned for him to continue.

"The enchantment outside the high school of magic is also from the hands of Lord Tian Yuan. To use the spell inside, you need to register the magic power, otherwise the alarm will be triggered. The palace is now closed by Lord Tian Yuan, so he can add his own registered magic power." Xia Youjie said, "However, just a few days ago, I found out that the enchantment of the high school was invalid."

Seriously, it was just a small mistake.

Xia Youjie, who managed to subdue a little magic spirit that could only light a fire, forgot to register the magic power for the inconspicuous new magic spirit. It was only when he handed fire to the house that couldn't find a lighter that he was shocked by the glass. feel something is wrong.

The alarm is not triggered.

The thoughtful young man did not directly show that something was wrong at the time, but secretly did a lot of experiments after that, and finally confirmed the fact that the enchantment of the high school was invalid.

"But at the same time, the enchantment techniques strengthened by Lord Tian Yuan can still be used by the assistant supervisors as usual, which is not consistent with the invalidation of high school enchantments. I also tried to see Lord Tian Yuan, although Xingxing Palace has assimilated since that time. After that, it will be completely closed, but normal message transmission will not be affected. However, Lord Tianyuan did not respond to me."

Zhong Li pondered, but did not speak for the first time.

He is aware of the rule that "there is only one star slurry at a time", and he also knows that the Tianyuan after that may be converted to the curse spirit. But after all, the mastermind behind the millennium has already been put to death, and Xia Youjie, the manipulator of the magic spirit, is still here, working with Wutiaowu, at least he can absorb Tianyuan before it gets out of control.

However, judging from the state of the enchantment... it was obvious that someone had added a lot of thought to the plan at that time.

"I see." In the end, Zhong Li said, "I will go down to the depths of the Xingxing Palace with you. As for the future...you can adapt accordingly."

The River of Destiny has not collapsed, which means that Tianyuan, which has a key role in this world, has not completely disappeared, and the enchantment that can still be used also proves this.

still have a chance.

The dusty door was forcibly opened from the outside, but the alarm still did not go off.

Inside the Xingxing Palace, there is an elevator that goes directly to the bottom. The two followed the elevator down to the deepest underground.

The eye is a pure white color.

Xia Youjie explained: "After Lord Tian Yuan closed the Xingxing Palace, he refused all communication, and the ground that originally existed in the building complex has also turned into this pure white appearance, so no one can visit the place where Lord Tian Yuan is located. s position……"

"Have Wu ever been here?" Zhong Li asked.

"...Since Riko's time, Wu has been somewhat repulsive to Lord Tian Yuan, and has never set foot in the Xingxing Palace."

"That makes sense." Zhong Li sighed, "The blankness here is not what Tian Yuan did."

Xia Youjie was startled, "What?"

"Although the final result is somewhat similar, the arrangement and operation of the enchantment are rigid and deliberate." Zhong Li stretched his fingers forward, stroking in the void, the position of his fingertips was slightly flat, as if he really touched something, "The reason why it has the same effect... I'm afraid it is because the energy that was originally dissipated was absorbed as much as possible, and concentrated on the result of a uniform release."

The pure white that overflowed the entire space suddenly appeared a crack from the point where the clock was away from the fingertips.

The mirror-like cracks are like living snakes, which are getting bigger and bigger in the pure white void, and finally shattered in an instant when they spread to the entire pure white.

"That's..." Xia Youjie looked at the scene in disbelief.

He once took over the task of escorting the star slurry to the Xingxing Palace, and he naturally knew the internal structure of the Xingxing Palace. However, at this moment, the giant tree that should have existed in the center disappeared without a trace.

Not only that, the houses that were originally built around the giant trees were cut into pieces, and the stereotypes visible to the naked eye were connected to the original enchantment, which roughly extended through the gaps in the houses, all the way to the center point.

And at the very center of the giant tree that originally grew, a knife shining with dim light was quietly inserted there, the huge but firmly bound mantra wrapped around it, and was engraved on the ground with a constant spell. Absorbing speed.

"It may have been swallowed, or it may be just a simple seal, but if you don't want the enchantment to fail immediately, it's best not to move the knife." Zhong Li said lightly.

Xia Youjie took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.

"Let's go check the situation first," he said.
