The Villain Only Wants to Live a Buddhist Life2

Professor Kazel said: "That's right, I'm a little anxious."

In fact, everyone was a little anxious.

Professor Jones asked immediately: "Sarah, you said that Arte has never come down from the mountain of the gods? Then all the messages she sent before were delivered by clones?"

Professor Sylph slowly shook her head and said, "I don't know."

Professor Sylph was the first person to know about Principal Alter's accident, but the sorting ceremony was just around the corner, and she had to focus on the sorting ceremony. She must not let Archbishop Caleb Norris discover what happened to Principal Alter!

Everything must be disguised as if nothing happened to Principal Arte.

And the problem here is that most of the Holy Cult troops stationed on the outskirts of the Mountain of the Gods already know that Principal Arte has returned with the team.

They may not have seen the scene where Principal Alter disappeared out of thin air, nor would they have thought that Principal Alter who returned with the team might be a clone transformed from an elf.

In that case, it will be assumed that Principal Arte has returned to the academy.

And in this special period of exchange and study between the two colleges, as long as Principal Arte returns to the college, he will inevitably meet with Archbishop Caleb Norris.

In other words, if the professors want to pretend that nothing happened to Principal Alter, they must have someone pretend to be Principal Alter and meet with Archbishop Caleb Norris.

This task, even for the professors present, is extremely difficult.

What's more, after a long time, there will definitely be more things like this.

It is impossible to hide the news of Principal Arte's accident forever!

……

"Everything is just guesswork. We don't know anything about the Mountain of the Gods, and we have limited knowledge of what happened during this period. Don't get confused by unfounded speculation."

Duck put his hands on the table, crossed his fingers, and said while holding his chin.

"Since Chris is here, why don't you let her talk about what happened first? And I remember Professor Sylph said that Principal Arte also gave a welcome gift to the exploration team led by Chris. .”

"Meeting ceremony? What meeting ceremony? Could that be the key information?" Professor Jones frowned and asked.

Professor Sylph said with a blank expression: "Cynthia did leave something behind, and Chris has brought it back and put it over there."

She raised her hand and pointed to the corner of the wall.

Everyone turned their heads to look almost at the same time, but saw that there were indeed a few extremely inconspicuous things piled up in the corner over there.

To put it simply, it is a box with a stone on it, and a sword without a hilt standing next to it-oh, a scabbard!

"I took a quick look, and there is no magic power fluctuation. There may be a seal. I suggest checking it later." Professor Sylph said.

"Let's take a look first." Professor Jones stretched out his hand to hook, and the three "gifts" flew to the middle of the table.

The lid of the box is thus removed, revealing a folded garment.

She put down the lid of the box, took the stone that had fallen on the table into her hand, and observed it carefully: "A pebble that looks pretty, like a gift from Arte."

—— Duck frowned upon hearing this.

Why does this sentence sound like it is saying that the noblest and most beautiful bright moon of St. Marian College is a person who will take stones as gifts?

Is there no mystery in that stone?

……

When Professor Jones was observing the stone, Professor Lily grabbed the scabbard, and Professor Kazel pulled the box containing the clothes over.

The scabbard is very old, and it seems that in order to maintain its original appearance, no one has cleaned it.

It has hollow patterns on its body, but there is a lot of soil embedded in the patterns, and the color of the soil has a hint of dark red.

Although Professor Lily snatched the scabbard, she was not as lavish as usual. Elgany, Eve and others also gathered beside her to observe carefully.

On the other side, Professor Kazel directly opened the [Eye of Truth], took out the clothes in the box, unfolded them, and checked them bit by bit.

It was a long sleeve that was not too big.

Unlike the scabbard, the clothes themselves were very new, but there was a lot of dirt on them, and there was a crack cut by something on the shoulder.

The more eye-catching one is probably the emblem on the left chest of the clothes—it should be the emblem that symbolizes a certain god, and most of them belong to the twelve gods belonging to the mountain of gods.

There are not only twelve gods on Porobos, the mountain of gods, but according to the handed down information, the rest of the gods must be subordinate to the twelve gods, and they do not have independent god emblems.

"Kazell, did you see anything?" Professor Sylph asked with concern.

But Professor Kazel closed the [Eye of Truth], and said regretfully, "A very ordinary dress."

Seeing that Professor Sylph showed obvious disappointment, he added: "After a cursory look, and a closer look later, there may be other discoveries."

As he spoke, he turned to Professor Lily, and his eyes fell on the scabbard.

Professor Lily also let go, slumped on the chair, and said, "There is nothing."

Although it is a pity, none of the professors could see anything from the three items during the first contact.

Duck didn't think that his vision would be better than that of Professor Kazel, so he said directly at this time: "In this case, let's listen to Chris tell what she knows first."

"Yes, master." [Scorpio] Chris, who had been listening quietly, responded immediately.

Darke nodded to her, and Chris spoke carefully from beginning to end.

Everyone fell silent, Professor Mitia took out a crystal ball, flicked it to the middle of the table with a finger.

In the crystal ball, Chris's projection appeared.

This is obviously a magic item that can record images and sounds.

……

Chris's narrative process is basically based on her own perspective.

The exploration team led by her joined the team that was supposed to be led by Principal Arte who was stranded there shortly after arriving at the Mountain of the Gods.

The two groups then merged into one and camped directly at the foot of the Mountain of the Gods.

"The mountain of the gods is majestic and steep, and the main peak leading to [Heavenly Court] goes straight into the sky."

"When we arrived at the Mountain of the Gods, the Mountain of the Gods had actually undergone a change. The sky above the mountain was covered with dark clouds, billowing with thunder and lightning, and the occasional aura that leaked out was extremely frightening."

"We were just stationed at the foot of the mountain, and some people lost their minds and had nightmares every night because they couldn't bear the breath."

"During the period when we were stationed at the foot of the mountain, we also tried to explore the mountain, but there are many secrets in the mountain. If you go deeper, you will be surrounded by mist, and... there are extremely fierce monsters hidden. For the safety of the team, we finally chose give up."

"But after that, I sneaked in to explore alone. Unfortunately, the things that can be explored outside the Mountain of Gods have been hollowed out by other forces, and I have gained very little."

Speaking of this, Chris paused for a while, and waited for everyone to digest the information before continuing to talk about other forces that were also spying on the mountain of the gods.

As Dak already knew before, in addition to the Holy Cult, the powers spying on the mountain of the gods include the nobles of the king's family, the northern dukes, and the elves.

Among them, the aristocratic forces belonging to the king are the most secretive, always hiding in the dark and not in contact with others.

However, the forces of the holy religion and the Duke of the North are directly spread out on the bright side.

During that time, Chris and their leaders also had separate contacts.

This is where the opportunity for this exchange and learning activity arose.

The forces of the Duke of the North are based here, and after learning that Chris is from the family of the Valkyrie, they showed a very friendly attitude.

Information was also exchanged several times between the two parties.

In addition, it is the elves.

The elves are the only non-human forces that appeared near the mountain of the gods.

And that elf clan is not the snow elves living in the North, but the moon elves from the elves!

The elves who are eligible to live in the elves' land all have high-ranking blood.

And the Moon Elf clan is the bloodline that ranks at the apex.

The elves are extremely fancy about the purity of blood, rejecting mixed blood and humans.

The moon elves are born elf priests.

The high priests of the elves are basically from the moon elves.

……

"Moon elves, why did you go to the Mountain of the Gods?" Professor Mitia asked quite sensitively.

Chris shook her head and said, "I also want to know this question. But when we tried to contact, we were warned by the other party's arrows. They were not friendly."

Professor Mitia frowned and said, "The high priests of the moon elves can gain enlightenment from the silver moon. There must be a reason for them to appear outside the mountain of the gods at this time."

Chris said: "We have left some people on the Mountain of the Gods, and will continue to observe the movements of the elves."

Professor Mitia subconsciously said, "What about their safety?"

Chris said: "We have cooperated with the Holy Church."

Of course, this is also the benefit of exchange learning activities.

Under the current general trend, the infighting among human beings will only lead to meaningless infighting.

Both St. Marian College and the Holy Church are well aware of this.

Therefore, this exchange and learning activity does have a trans-epochal significance after excluding those series of overt and covert schemes.

Of course, the premise is that after this exchange and learning activity, the relationship between St. Marian College and the Holy Church will indeed improve.

Actually it's not easy.

……

After Chris briefly introduced the forces of all parties, she continued to talk about many things that happened at the foot of the mountain.

While Dak was listening, he couldn't help but glanced in Aurora's direction.

He had a relatively detailed understanding of Aurora's family.

Aurora's father, Alex Valentine, is a half-blood elf with half the blood of the moon elves.

The mother of Alex Valentine is the second wife of Earl Valentine, a moon elf who wandered to Valentine's territory during the war.

That moon elf is Aurora's grandmother.

It is said that after the moon elf gave birth to Alex Valentine, he was taken back to the land of the elves by the elves who were looking for him, and there was no news after that.

The land of the elves is the "hometown" of the elves, and it also exists like a holy land.

It has not been attacked by large-scale wars during the thousands of years of war.
