Full-Time Magister: I Had No Intention of Reaching the Dimensional Throne

Chapter 85: How many more older sisters are there?

Bai Mo and the others returned to Zhongjian Town in Jiufeng Mountain. They first submitted the task of hunting down the Spirit Sound Rats, and the reward was quickly settled. Bai Mo received about 30 million.

The four also wrote a report on their mission to investigate the gathering of the Spirit Sound Rats, and noted their own speculations.

Actually, they wanted to investigate thoroughly before submitting this report, but the Spirit Sound Rats had already been wiped out, and the sudden threat from Jiufeng Mountain had been resolved. If they delayed any longer, the authorities might not pay attention to this matter in the future.

"Is Master Mingdeng preparing to return to the temple?" Bai Mo asked as the group walked down the street in Zhongjian Town.

"Good. Let's take this opportunity to organize the spoils of this trip, and then see if we can find out anything about Benefactor Ye."

"Then why don't we go together? I'm also planning to go back to Mingzhu Academy to inform them about the situation at the Extraordinary People Academy. I hope we can make it in time," Bai Mo said leisurely.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Tianyuan and Mingdeng both pondered for a few seconds before Zhou Tianyuan finally asked, "Are you suspecting that the person at our school who had Night Stove Jun do this isn't the real mastermind?"

"Yes." Bai Mo nodded and said slowly, "Our school's teachers have no reason to do this directly. A portion of the mineral resources from Jiufeng Mountain were donated to our school."

"We'll find the mastermind eventually. We've already submitted the report to the military at Jiufeng Mountain. When we get back, we'll talk to the school about it. The military and the school will investigate together. Do you think we can let the person behind this get away with it?"

Zhou Tianyuan was quite optimistic. He felt that the target had been locked in and was definitely related to the teachers of the Extraordinary People Academy.

"Let's go back to Shanghai first and then talk about it."

A thin, sparse-haired man with small, sharp eyes and a stern face sat in the councilor's office in the Pearl Mage Tower. Through the glass, he could see most of Shanghai, and beyond that, the sea.

The man gazed at the headquarters of the Coast Guard at a certain point on the sea frontier. His eyes were filled with scheming and calculation, as well as disgust for the scenery before him.

He's been sitting in this spot for years.

This vast blue sea and sky, which inspire a sense of open-mindedness, cannot nurture a person with a broad mind who embraces all things.

Yes, he is a guy whose only concern is power.

The female secretary who was standing by the door walked up to him and respectfully gave a report.

"Congressman, there was a problem with the plan. We were unable to stop the mining progress at Jiufeng Mountain. Li Linchun's actions may have been discovered."

Upon hearing this, the sinister-looking man frowned. Jiufeng Mountain had always been led by the Gu family faction of the military mages, and it had become an important bargaining chip for them to support Gu Changying's transfer from the southern front of the coastal defense army to the minister of the coastal defense department. If they could not remove this bargaining chip, he would have no chance.

He dislikes incompetent people, and at the same time, he is neither nostalgic nor sentimental.

This Li Linchun was personally promoted by him to be the vice dean of Mingzhu Academy. It was one thing for him not to do things properly, but he also exposed his true colors. Once Li Linchun is investigated, he may be implicated.

The somewhat agitated man pondered, his gaze sweeping over the secretary from head to toe.

Mingzhu Academy welcomed back four students who had been away from him for a few days. As soon as Bai Mo returned to the school, he was recognized, which puzzled him.

It's just a pet battle in the Beast Fighting Tournament, how did it attract so much attention? Why is it that Mo Fan, who is also a protagonist, has such a face-blinding aura?

Instead of going back to the dormitory to relax or do anything else, Bai Mo said goodbye to the three of them and went straight to Dean Xiao's office.

Unless there are special circumstances, Dean Xiao is usually here.

He knocked on the door, and after someone inside said "Come in," Bai Mo pushed the door open and entered.

Dean Xiao was reviewing some documents when he looked up at the person who entered. His face remained calm and natural with a smile, and he asked in a measured tone:

"Bai Mo, is there something you need from me?"

Bai Mo nodded and said directly, "Yes, there is something, Dean. I would like to know about the Institute of Extraordinary People."

"The Institute of Extraordinary People." Dean Xiao wasn't surprised to hear this term from Bai Mo. He assumed Bai Mo had heard it from Ding Yumin and wanted more details, so he explained:

"The Inhumans Institute has existed since the founding of Pearl School. Initially, it was to protect and nurture some exceptionally talented students, but with the implementation of some of the Inhumans Institute's regulations, its functions have also changed."

"Currently, there aren't many students at the Pearl Institute; it mainly serves as a sanctuary for exceptional individuals."

"After three years of observation, I believe Ding Yumin's talent is very stable and she will not be included in the Academy of Extraordinary People."

Hearing Dean Xiao recount the history and functions of the Extraordinary Ones Academy, as well as the arrangements for Ding Yumin, Bai Mo shook his head. Normally, he would have been happy to listen to Dean Xiao talk about these things that seemed useful yet also useless.

But now he just wanted to get straight to the point, so he asked directly:

"Dean Xiao, do you know about the Night Kitchen God?"

"Hmm?!" Dean Xiao's eyebrows twitched. Although the Superhuman Academy had a dedicated dean in charge, he was in charge of the Pearl Academy. The students of the Superhuman Academy had unique and valuable abilities, and their numbers were not large.

Therefore, he remembers each and every student clearly.

This Night Kitchen God is a rat-man who can manipulate rat-like demons below the commander level in a special way. Many of the giant-eyed rats in the underground of the Demon City were either killed by him or guided to the wild.

This student entered the school four years ago and should be graduating now. He will likely become a mentor or researcher of supernatural abilities at the Institute of Extraordinary People.

But the extraordinary individuals from the Academy of Extraordinary People generally don't leave the academy on their own initiative, so why would Bai Mo ask him about it? Dean Xiao then said:

"He's a student at the Institute of Extraordinary People. Have you met him? I heard from Director Jiang Yunming that you seemed to have gone to Jiufeng Mountain these past few days."

"We met him near Jiufeng Mountain. He's dead." Bai Mo nodded. Seeing Dean Xiao's serious expression, he waved his hand, first spreading a white cloth on the ground, and then placing the corpse of Yezhaojun in the space on it.

Then he began to recount how he met the Night Stove Lord. Dean Xiao listened quietly, his brows gradually furrowing into a cold expression.

Upon hearing Bai Mo finish recounting the Night Stove Lord's last words, Dean Xiao's eyes were filled with even more emotion.

"Dean Li, I will investigate this matter together with Dean Fu Jiaming of the Extraordinary Ones Academy." Dean Xiao glanced at Bai Mo, grasped the key points, and reassured him:

"Don't worry, Dean Fu is the one who protects these children with pitiful backgrounds the most. He would never do anything to expel the students with supernatural abilities to complete some kind of graduation mission!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Mo nodded slightly, then glanced at Ye Zaojun's corpse. "Dean, Ye Xuezhang's remains..."

Dean Xiao waved his hand, and without a single spatial fluctuation, the body of Night Stove Lord vanished.

"The school has a cemetery, so you don't need to worry about that."

"Okay." Bai Mo nodded. He had fulfilled the Night Kitchen God's last request. Now all that was left was to make the person who killed him pay the price.

"Dean Xiao, may I know the location of the Institute of Extraordinary People?"

"Within the main campus of Mingzhu." Dean Xiao glanced at Bai Mo, as if knowing what he was planning, and then said:

"Bai Mo, you need to apply to enter the Academy of Extraordinary People. Also, you should trust the purity of Pearl Academy, or trust this old man like me. I will definitely give Ye Zao-jun an explanation."

"Alright." Shrugging, Bai Mo glanced at Dean Xiao. "Then, Dean, I'm leaving."

"Yes, go back and train hard. Meditation after a battle is the most effective."

Dean Xiao nodded slightly, gave a word of advice, watched Bai Mo leave, and then disappeared from the office himself.

"Old Fu."

His calm voice suddenly appeared, startling Fu Jiaming, who was in his office thinking about how to deal with the troublesome guys from the research institute. He subconsciously drew half of a constellation.

After realizing what was happening, Fu Jiaming turned angrily to look at the suddenly appearing Dean Xiao and said irritably:

"Hey Lao Xiao, you're not young anymore, why are you acting like those students, all clumsy and reckless? Can't you just use the door?"

"Night Kitchen Lord is dead. Let's go and bury him together."

Dean Xiao ignored Fu Jiaming's complaints and, without giving the old man any time to calm down, dropped a bombshell.

"What! The Kitchen God is dead?! How is that possible?!"

Fu Jiaming was furious. His beard and hair stood on end, and his aura surged. The heavy wooden table beside him trembled, and papers flew everywhere, making him look like he could overturn the entire building at any moment.

"Who did this?! Was it those idiots from the Research Association?!"

"Calm down first, don't act so rashly like a student."

Dean Xiao gestured for him to hold back, then frowned and asked.

"He hasn't been to school for the past few days, didn't you know?"

"I just got back today. A few days ago, the Court of Judgment was designating some dangerous talents again. I went to listen to a meeting. These people really wish the whole world were full of mediocre people!"

As Fu Jiaming spoke, his mustache stood on end, and he looked indignant.

"No wonder." Dean Xiao nodded. He had said that if Fu Jiaming were at the academy, he would have been aware of a student graduating and leaving.

"Here's what happened..."

Dean Xiao gave a general account of the Night Stove Lord's matter. In his opinion, Fu Jiaming, who had been in charge of the Extraordinary People Academy, was more knowledgeable about many things in the academy than he was. He should be able to judge whether Dean Li would do such a thing.

Sure enough, no sooner had Dean Xiao finished speaking than Fu Jiaming roared, "Li Linchun!"

"Is there something wrong with him?" Dean Xiao frowned. He didn't have a deep impression of Li Linchun; he was sent to the School of Extraordinary People by the Magic Education Department of the Magic Association.

Fu Jiaming glanced at Dean Xiao and slowly nodded. "That's right. He doesn't care about the students of the Institute of Extraordinary People. He even always felt that protecting these people was causing trouble for the Magic Association and the country. Many of my decisions and ideas have been rejected and blocked by him."

"To stop an old stubborn like you, a vice-principal's position and an overseas assignment from the Department of Magic Education aren't enough." Narrowing his eyes, Dean Xiao asked quietly, "You should know who's behind him, right?"

"He is a councilor of the Mingzhu Temple."

"Which legislator?"

"The dealer's."

Upon hearing this, a glint of light flashed in Dean Xiao's eyes. Councilor Zhuang was a top-level mage, so compared to that, the councilor's status was not very important.

The four major families of Shanghai each have a fixed number of seats in the Mingzhu Mage Tower Council. If a member is not elected as a councilor, the position is usually just a mouthpiece for the four major families of Shanghai.

Importantly, this Congressman Zhuang is also one of the deputy ministers of the Coast Guard.

In recent years, Kyushu has been paying more and more attention to coastal defense. The importance of the Coastal Defense Department, which oversees all aspects of coastal defense, is self-evident. Considering the behavior and rumors surrounding that congressman, Dean Xiao had his answer.

"Hmph! A power-hungry wretch. I'm going to Jiufeng Mountain. Old Fu, you take the academy's disciplinary committee to investigate Li Linchun."

After Dean Xiao finished speaking, a silvery glow descended and disappeared into the room.

After leaving Dean Xiao's office, Bai Mo prepared to take a stroll around the school.

Since Dean Xiao said he would give Ye Zao Jun an explanation, Bai Mo believed him.

At the same time, he also planned to visit the Inhumans Institute himself. He had already sent the application via his mobile phone, but he didn't know when he would receive a response.

He hadn't expected that the academy had restrictions. If his application was approved, the parasites in that academy would have already been purged, so what would be the point of him going there?

Some things are more comforting to see with your own eyes.

As I walked near Moon Lake, I saw Ding Yumin coming out of a teaching building at the end of the road.

She wore a loose white shirt, tucked into her blue vintage jeans, with a light-colored belt that accentuated her slender waist and highlighted her full upper body.

Combined with her tranquil and elegant temperament, she possesses a unique kind of beauty.

Other students came out with them; they seemed to be from the same class or department, and had just finished class.

As Bai Mo observed, she walked in that direction. It seemed that she also saw her and walked towards her.

Boys kept glancing at her, and one shameless guy stood very close, looking all charming, as if he was talking to Ding Yumin.

Ding Yumin ignored him. Bai Mo glanced at the boy; he looked somewhat familiar.

Hmm, the one who tried to harm Feng Ling with a soul attack during the Beast Fighting Tournament. He's actually in the same class as Ding Yumin?

It seems that this guy's soul attack wasn't due to his eagerness to win.

Bai Mo narrowed his eyes, quickly walked a few steps to Ding Yumin's side, and looked at her with a smile, saying:

"Shall we go for a walk?"

"it is good."

Then the two walked side by side, turned a corner, and headed towards Moon Lake.

As Bai Mo walked, he kept an eye on the movements of the pretentious boy.

He thought there would be some exciting developments, but when the man saw him, his expression changed and he left immediately.

gone!

What? This person doesn't seem like an upright person either. Shouldn't he have jumped out to stop me?

And those spectators around you, shouldn't they be saying sarcastic things? What's with those congratulatory looks you're giving?

Bai Mo showed a hint of regret as she and Ding Yumin continued walking forward, leaving behind her classmates.

Ding Yumin kept her eyes on him, noticing the regret on his face. Although she could roughly guess what he was thinking, she still said calmly:

"You seem disappointed?"

"...Really? No." Bai Mo denied it; he wasn't that bored.

"How have things been these past few days?"

"It's alright, the main thing is to find treasures for Little Wind Spirit." Bai Mo said, summoning Little Wind Spirit and letting it play with its sister.

Ding Yumin saw Fengling up close for the first time and thought it was quite cute. However, after chatting for a while, she looked at the person grinning foolishly beside her and suddenly said out of the blue:

"Who are Sister Mu and Sister Ai? How many other sisters does it have?"
