The original god, the zero-seat executive of the Fools

Xuying said: "Master? Are you worthy?"

Knox grinned lightly, and suddenly, his palm was pulled forward from behind, and a figure was instantly flown to the front from a few hundred meters away.

Ying stood there and looked at Knox beside him, and then at the transparent body with the corpse's heart opposite... Knox?The expression on her face was confused.

"You have what I have, but I don't have what you have." Knox smiled and said lightly: "You are right, you have cumbersome superfluous emotions, useless disgusting desires, and meaningless so-called Heartbeat."

While speaking, Knox's palm pushed Ying's back.

The huge force caused Ying to stumble and fall towards "Knox" on the opposite side in a daze.

The silver sword in Knox's hand stabbed Ying's back - the shadow's pupils shrank slightly, and the heart beat violently in the chest.

The shadow stepped forward, wanting to catch Ying who fell over, but——

A physical arm wrapped around Ying's slender and soft waist, sending her back behind her. The person in front of the virtual shadow also changed from a blond girl to Knox's sword full of murderous intent.

laugh--!

So——the sword blade penetrated that bright red heart easily.

The shadow looked into Knox's eyes in disbelief, but soon, the disbelief turned into a helpless smile. He reached out and patted Knox on the shoulder: "It's good to live as long as you can... You win...you know yourself better than I..."

A useless instinct that can reveal murderous intent without reservation even when faced with oneself, but cannot attack someone no matter what.

boom!

The shadow turned into particles of light and dissipated, leaving only the heart pierced by the sword beating tenaciously in the air.

Chapter 183 Various states of Xumi

Sumeru City, which has almost become a super-large construction site, has completely become a paradise for the scholars of the Miao Lun sect in the Ecclesiastical Order.

The original Xumi City will be occupied by the expanded Teaching Academy. To complete this future, real academic city, the first thing to do is to demolish the original buildings of Xumi City, which is demolition in the conventional sense.

The victory of the war brought not only a large amount of free labor to the Order, but also countless financial gains.

Xumi's Gilded Brigade has a long history, and the inheritance of many Gilded Brigades is beyond imagination. The biggest advantage of such a Gilded Brigade is that it has money. The Gilded Brigade that participated in the rebellion this time There are many such brigades in China...

The leadership of the Gilded Brigade that directly participated in the rebellion was executed, and the members became prisoners and laborers. As for the money they accumulated, they naturally also entered the treasury of the Order.

Of course, the harvest is far more than that. For example, the tax order issued by Nasida before the outbreak of the war and the government order legalizing the registration of the Gilded Brigade were both perfectly executed because of this battle.

Therefore, even though the Imperial Academy has been taking various major actions recently, it has not actually brought any pressure to Sumeru.

Now in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the dean's office, Nasida was overlooking the prosperous Xumi City, but there was no smile on her cute little face. Instead, there was a faint worry.

There is no other reason. Since Knox entered the Strata Abyss a few days ago, the sharing of thoughts between Nasida and him has been forcibly cut off by some external force.

Coupled with the terrifying aura and pressure that came from the east of Sumeru a few hours ago...

......

Dao Chenglin.

On the patrol route, Tinari looked at Kelai, who was more lively and cheerful than before, and couldn't help but feel helpless. He sighed: "Didn't you get called by that person to be a personal assistant? Why are you still so quick to come back?" Dao Chenglin, is the assistant’s job so easy these days?”

Kelai, who was leaning over and sniffing the scent of a wild flower in the grass, heard what he said. He stood up and scratched his head sheepishly at Tinari: "I'm on vacation recently. He said he had something to go to other countries to deal with. He asked me first. Take a good rest for some time..."

Tinari nodded when he heard this: "He took you to Mondstadt's Wine Festival before, but not this time. It seems to be a dangerous place for you..."

Collet didn't reply.

Tinari glanced at her, as if he didn't care and said: "Speaking of it, he is the executive officer of the Fools after all. Even though he has a close relationship with the Little Lucky Grass King, he does not hold the position of the dean of the Teaching Academy. If he stays for too long, he will eventually return to Winter."

Kelai pursed his lips and looked a little sad.

"If... he wants to take you back to Solstice, will you go with him?" Tinari turned around and asked.

The country of Solstice is naturally dangerous in Tinari's eyes. Thinking about those famous executives on the continent, as far as he knows, there is no one who is not extremely dangerous, no matter who they are. It is rumored that the [Ms.] who needs to be killed by the gods in Inazuma is the one he has met before, the [Doctor] who can regard everything in the world as an experiment, and even the [Skirmler] who has personally ascended to the throne of God... ...If any one of these guys is chosen as an opponent, it would probably be extremely unfortunate.

Normally, as a master, it is impossible for Tinari to agree to let his disciples go to that kind of dragon pond and tiger's den. However, he also knows who Kelai's backer is. It can be called the most terrifying existence, so if Cole really returns to Solstice with Knox, safety is at least guaranteed——

Of course, Tinari also knows that such a problem is something that Kelai does not want to face, so even if Kelai knows that the problem exists, she will not take the initiative to face it on her own, so now, it is most appropriate for her as a master to raise it. However, isn’t it the teacher’s duty to bring problems to his students and then let the students solve them?

Kelai scratched his hair and said with some trepidation: "Master Tinari, why are you asking this? In the current situation of Xumi, he will not leave, at least... at least until the academic city of the Order Academy is completed. , the new Xumi City is completed, isn’t it..."

Tinari held his forehead and sighed: "Don't make a decision just thinking about it when it comes." After that, he stepped forward and rubbed his disciple's head, and said softly: "Whether you decide to stay or return to him I will support you wherever you are."

Kelai opened his eyes slightly, looked at the master's gentle face, and felt an inexplicable urge to cry.

This period of time is undoubtedly the happiest time in Kelai's life besides following Knox around. He can find Knox at any time, stay with him to work, and can also return to Dao Chenglin at any time. I accidentally do the job I love as a ranger, surrounded by friends, a master, and Knox... If days like this can continue, of course it would be the best——

But as Tinari said, Knox will eventually return to Solstice.

This also means that Kelai has to make a choice, whether to return to Knox as before, or to continue to stay in Daochenglin, in this environment and position that he likes to be familiar with...

Knox's weight in her heart was so large that it was almost equal to the rest of the people put together in Kelai's heart. But that was exactly the problem. After all, when she followed Knox to Zhiwin, he was the only one there. The memories Dong left for her were not all good...

Tinari looked at Kelai, who was in a tangle, and couldn't help but smile and pat her shoulder, and said humorously: "You don't have to be too hasty to make a decision. You can think about it carefully and follow your own heart. Can,"

"Well, I know, master..." Kelai nodded, clasping his hands behind his back and saying a little embarrassedly.

During the subsequent forest patrol, Kelai seemed much silent until Tinari took her back to Huacheng.

But as soon as they reached the entrance of Huachengguo, they were stopped by two soldiers wearing the uniforms of the Grass God Guards.

One of them saluted Kelai: "Assistant, the dean is back. I am here to inform the assistant. Please hand over the work at hand as soon as possible and return to the teaching court."

When Cole heard this, he couldn't help but look at Tinari.

Tinari smiled: "Go ahead, I will help you with the rest of your work as a ranger."

"Well, thank you, master." Kelai nodded, but the happy smile that he usually showed at this time did not appear. Instead, there was a calmness with a mature charm.

......

After not visiting Xumi City for a few days, Kelai found that the changes here were really great. There were workers everywhere and Miao Lun scholars holding drawings and giving loud instructions. The prototypes of countless magnificent buildings were rising from the ground.

Even if it is just a prototype, it is enough to give people unlimited daydreams about this future academic city. "It will be a very happy thing if I can live here in the future." I believe that many people will think so.

Kelai thought about this as he walked through the "old Xumi City" dotted with construction sites.

In the dean's office at the moment, Knox was sitting on the rocking chair in front of his desk, with his hands behind his head, his legs on the table, and his eyelids closed, making people feel lazy even when he looked over.

The people communicating with Nasida at the window were naturally Ying and Paimon, who were taken back to Sumeru by Knox.

"Does the heart have its own consciousness..." A look of contemplation appeared on Nacida's face, and then her eyes unconsciously glanced at Knox on the rocking chair, her eyes locked on his chest.

"Yes, yes, the scene at that time was terrifying! It was like two spirits fighting, it was so earth-shattering!" Paimeng shrank and said with a frightened look.

"So that heart..." Nacida couldn't help but ask.

"It was absorbed by him." Ying hesitated and said, "But according to Ling himself, apart from the fact that his body's ability to withstand his own power has increased a lot, there have been no other changes."

Nasida nodded: "I had some expectations about this. As Paimon said, the situation at that time was like two of them fighting, and they were evenly matched - if the authority of the night was like a tower filled with water, As for the pond, he usually uses this authority like turning himself into a water pump, but he is the only one with the authority to pump water from this pond, and having the heart of consciousness, in a sense, is also He, so the heart naturally has the authority to pump water from this pond."

"Two water pumps with the same power can naturally extract the same power of night... Now that he has fused the heart, he can probably be compared to a water pump with twice the original power."

Listening to what Nacida said, Paimon couldn't help scratching his head: "Nacida's metaphor is really vivid, but the spirit is like a water pump, it always feels weird..."

Chapter 184 How to fight [Sloth]?

"call--"

Knox opened his eyes in the rocking chair and glanced at the window: "It's so noisy. There are so many places in Teyvat that are suitable for talking. Why do you have to disturb my sleep here?"

"Um..." Paimon scratched his hair: "Did I speak too loudly..."

Ying rolled her eyes and said angrily: "He is just complaining, don't pay attention to him."

Paimon looked at Ying with some surprise and said in surprise: "Your attitude towards Ling is so tough now..."

Ying crossed her arms, glanced at Knox, and said nothing.

Knox didn't pay attention, but Nasida came over. She looked into Knox's lazy eyes and smiled and said: "The influence of [Sloth] is unconscious. Maybe the opposite is true." It’s a good way to deal with the erosion of original sin. Don’t always lie in the office doing nothing. If you don’t want to work, I can also go out with you to find other ways to relax.”

"Yes, yes!" Paimon said excitedly as if he was suddenly struck by these words: "When Ying and I came over, we saw notices on the notice boards in the city about training mushrooms for competitions. , I thought it was both interesting and too dangerous at the time, but if there is a spirit to go to the event with me, then there won’t be any problems!”

Ying and Nasida looked at Knox together, waiting for his answer.

Knox yawned, then turned over: "Not going."

fluorescent;"……"

Nasida: "..."

"Well, even though I expected it, being rejected so decisively still hurts me a lot." Paimon said glumly with a pout on his face.

"I think you will like that activity. It doesn't matter if you try it, right?" Ying advised: "Just think of it as compensation for the time you pushed me in the rock abyss. How about it?"

"..." Knox sat up and looked at Ying with half-squinted eyes: "Are you sure? This is the compensation you want?"

"Yeah." Ying nodded and looked directly into Knox's eyes.

"Haha——" Knox tilted his head and said with a playful smile: "Don't regret it."

As soon as he finished speaking, there were footsteps in the maze area in front of the office. Not long after, those footsteps came to the office area with familiarity.

"Forehead……"

Seeing that everyone here was focusing their attention on him, Kelai hesitated and said: "Did I come at the wrong time?"

"No, you came at the right time." Knox stood up, waved his hand, and a wooden sign appeared in his hand. He came to Kelai and hung the wooden sign on her fair and slender neck: "From now on, you are the acting dean. If there is anything that needs to be dealt with, you can handle it. If you can't handle it, just put it aside and ignore it."

As he spoke, he brought the confused Kelai to sit down on the rocking chair in front of the desk, and then waved to Ying and the others: "Let's go."

As soon as he finished speaking, he jumped out of the window next to him.

Paimon shook his fist at Collet: "Although I feel a little sloppy, come on Collet!"

After saying that, she also flew out of the window.

"Come on..." Ying said, and then jumped down.

Nasida smiled at Kelai: "Don't worry, there shouldn't be any major things that need to be dealt with in the near future. Based on Miss Kelai's experience, ordinary government affairs should be very easy. Please work hard!"

After saying her words of encouragement, Nasida's figure turned into green fluorescent light and flew out.

When Ke Lai recovered from her confusion, the office of Nuo University was already empty. She looked down at the big wooden sign on her chest and saw four arrogant characters on it: "Acting Dean"

"..." Ke Lai swallowed, what should he do if he became the supreme ruler of Sumeru inexplicably?Waiting online, quite urgent.
