Dragon Raja's Number One Player

..........................................

Sure enough, Lin Zhiying knew that the reason Angers and the other two appeared together was not just because they were afraid that he would be in danger.

If that's the case, judging from their performance just now, one Angers would probably be enough.

Their more important objective should be to assess themselves, since a student who kills the Dragon King would be a huge challenge for the teaching at Kassel College itself.

This is probably equivalent to a Nobel Prize winner suddenly going to a certain university.

"Forget about it. Although you've been with the academy for quite some time, you've never mentored a single student."

Angers shook his head slightly and spoke.

"There's always a first time, isn't there? Manstein, the son I raised, isn't he doing very well now?"

The vice principal retorted somewhat indignantly, saying he didn't want to give up this opportunity.

"Hmm... does Manstein know about this 'raising' you're talking about?"

Angers tilted his head slightly and uttered a single sentence that sealed the victory.

The vice principal was silent for a moment, then turned his head, opened the silver wine bottle, and gulped down the wine.

If Lin Zhiying remembered correctly, in the original story, Manstein himself was raised by his mother, so it's no wonder the vice principal behaved this way.

It's not just about killing someone, it's about destroying their spirit.

However, the vice principal did not have any teaching experience. His main job on campus was to maintain "Word of Power: Commandments" in the clock tower.

Constantly activating his Word of Power takes a huge toll on him. In his previous life, someone discovered a dense array of alchemical formations on the clock tower, mainly of the "restorative" type.

Lin Zhiying estimated that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, her mentor would be Professor Schneider, one of the three.

Angers hadn't personally taught students in a long time.

Moreover, Professor Schneider happened to have experience mentoring "dangerous individuals," after all, his previous student was named Chu Zihang.

However, Lin himself would definitely not feel very comfortable under his command.

Especially after learning about the player's "immortal" nature, given Schneider's personality, he will probably always be the one to carry out the most dangerous missions.

Of course, this could also bring opportunities, meaning that one might have the chance to get in touch with higher-ranking figures earlier.

Angers suddenly spoke, interrupting Lin Zhiying's thoughts: "If I remember correctly, your Word of Power is 'Time Zero,' right?"

"Yes."

Lin Zhiying nodded.

His burning eyes scanned Lin Zhiying from head to toe. After a brief silence, he spoke, "In that case, I will be your mentor."

Angers' words sent a shiver down Lin Zhiying's spine.

The principal of Angers is his own mentor?!

I didn't hear wrong, did I?

"Of course, it's been a long time since I've mentored any students, so in other aspects you're still Professor Schneider's student. How about the Word Magic development that I personally taught you?"

Angers said with a smile.

Of course you can!

Lin Zhihai nodded frantically. To translate Angers' words, it means: "You can gain my power and Professor Schneider's resources!"

This is not a simple 1+1 problem!

The previous student of Angers was Inuyama He, the head of the Inuyama family, one of the "Snake-Headed Eight Families" in Japan, and his final achievement was...

This way, one can undoubtedly obtain the most resources and the best training.

"May I ask the vice principal for alchemy advice?"

Lin Zhiying did not answer directly, but continued speaking.

Anyway, I already have two mentors, so one more won't make a difference. They're just "three-surname slaves," and I still have "Chu Tianjiao" as my father.

The vice principal paused in his drinking, not expecting that he would have something to do with himself.

"Of course, if he agrees, but you can only find him at the clock tower."

Angers said with a smile.

..........................................

The Hercules helicopter was making quite a commotion above Kassel College, with its high-powered spotlight sweeping over warily before moving away after making sure it could see who was on board.

Many players on the ground also noticed this scene.

"They can come by helicopter, that's so impressive, they must be an important NPC. Let's go take a look."

"One cut through water," he said.

Like everyone else around him, he chose to come directly to "Kassel College" to try his luck.

However, reality was very different from their expectations. After working for most of the day, they mostly encountered ordinary NPCs and didn't even see a single NPC from the original story.

What about Caesar? What about Chu Zihang? If all else fails, you could always send Nono and Zero.

Why is there no one here?

So the helicopter that is currently preparing to land is their last chance.

A group of players formed a circle around the lawn where the helicopter had landed.

"Can you see who's on the plane?"

The speaker was none other than "Lan Mengtian".

The next moment, the eyes of the player next to him named "The Greatest Kimi" gradually brightened.

This is his Word of Power "Distant Vision". Although it is a B-rank Word of Power, it is quite practical. It can permanently enhance vision, and even without using the Word of Power, his strength is two to three times that of a normal hybrid.

I don't know where the rumor came from, but it's said that this spell can eventually unlock the effect of penetrating objects.

"Tell me quickly!"

"One cut through water" urged.

"Don't rush me, I'm watching it now."

"The Greatest Kimi" waved for silence, then he saw that incredibly familiar figure from the expansion pack on the plane.

"Principal, it's the principal on the plane!"

His tone carried an almost imperceptible excitement.

Holy crap, Angers! In the original story, he was a being whose mortal body could rival that of a god, and he was the soul of Kassel College.

Upon hearing this, the surrounding players immediately became excited, rubbing their hands together, eager to make a good impression on Angers later.

"Is there any more?"

One player urged, "After all, such a big plane shouldn't be carrying only one person."

"The Greatest Kimmy" continued looking up at the plane.

Who is Jiahao, the one wearing a mask?

He thought for a moment, then realized, "Oh, it's Professor Schneider."

He began by saying, "Professor Schneider is also on the plane."

Professor Schneider is the head of the executive department, one of the most powerful figures in the academy, and sometimes even more powerful than Angers, the principal.

"The Greatest Kimmy" continued to gaze into the distance, and as the plane gradually descended, his view became clearer and clearer.

"The vice principal, yes, the vice principal is here too."

Looking around, there was no one else in the school holding the wine jug except him.

Suddenly, "The Greatest is Kimi" froze, as if he had seen something unbelievable.

"What else? Why aren't you saying anything?"

"The player next to me urged."

"The Greatest Kimi" couldn't help but swallow hard. It couldn't be real; he actually saw the player—Lin Zhiying—on it.

He found it somewhat unbelievable.

He admitted that Lin Zhiying was indeed very skilled, but in City A, it was just a small place, a beginner's village.

At Kassel College, opportunities abound, and it's anyone's guess who will emerge victorious. Many players share his sentiment.

But what's going on now? Lin Zhiying is on the helicopter, and I even saw him chatting and laughing with such an important person as Angers.

There's no need for him to explain anymore, because the helicopter has already slowly landed on the lawn.

Players swarmed around them: the vice principal, the principal, Professor Schneider—each of them was an important figure.

Then, the cabin door opened, and the players saw Lin Zhiying slowly poking her head out of the cabin.

Damn, I woke up this morning and found I'd received another tip. Then I looked at it, and the name was "Sky Tears".

I thought it was just an imitator, but after clicking in and looking at the information, I realized it was just a copycat.

Holy crap, it really is that "Sky Tear" author who wrote "The Number One Player in Soul Palace".

As you all know, my book referenced that book's setting to some extent, and I also learned some of its early-game pacing techniques.

Seeing this, I was absolutely thrilled!

Of course, I'm not as good as the experts; I've only learned a tiny bit of what they've learned.

If you want to read similar books, you can check out the books by the author "Sky Tears". Compared to my books, they are like the moon and fireflies.

I'll be adding one extra chapter each tomorrow and the day after, for a total of two chapters, as a sign of respect for the esteemed reader and my gratitude to everyone!
