After I died of old age, I was reincarnated into another world and became a cat

After the carriage shook for a while, it soon calmed down and the entire convoy rushed towards the imperial capital at a very fast speed.

Inside the college

"Teacher Lilith, I wonder if you have thought about what I said last time?"

"What is it? I'm old and my memory is not good. I forgot."

"It's about the succession of the dean..."

In the dean's study, Lilith crossed her legs and drank the honey tea made by the dean, while the dean gently stroked his long white beard and smiled bitterly.

"In fact, I went out this time under the order of the emperor."

"Oh?"

Lilith gently shook the cup of honey tea, but her mind was thinking about other things.

"Remember the magic book that La Luna deciphered?"

"Remember, the disguise of that book was obviously a despicable method, but it unexpectedly worked?"

"Yes."

The dean nodded, then picked up a long staff from the side.

“In fact, this time we found a way to completely eradicate the termites in the deciphered articles of that book.”

Hearing the dean's words, Lilith raised her eyebrows.

"Isn't this great? The termites that have plagued the empire for so many years can finally be completely eradicated."

However, the dean shook his head.

"No, it's not that simple."

The dean stood up from his seat and walked to the bookshelf nearby to take out the translation of the magic book.

"Look this way."

The dean specifically opened a page of information and handed it to Lilith to read.

"This……"

Lilith took it and looked at it for a while with a frown, then read on, with a look of disbelief in her eyes.

"What a bastard!"

Lilith and the minister took a deep breath, then frowned and cursed.

"Calm down. Since it has already happened, we cannot reverse it, but we can destroy it."

The dean slowly walked to a chessboard.

“When a chess game reaches a deadlock, often the easiest way to resolve it is to overturn the chessboard.”

If you can't solve the problem, then solve the person who created the problem, then there will be no problem.

Sure enough, violence is the most direct way to solve the problem.

"So, Dean, are you planning to let me lead the team to wipe out the annihilation?"

"No, I'll go."

"what?!"

After hearing what the dean said, Lilith stood up immediately.

"But if you go, what will the academy do during this period? And this eradication mission seems very dangerous...what if."

"Oh, this is one of the reasons why I called you here."

The dean walked up to Lilith, then held her shoulders and asked her to sit down.

"Lilith, remember, if I don't come back after this mission, then the position of dean will be handed over to you. Although I know this may be shameless... but you are the only candidate at the moment, and I believe in you."

"..."

Lilith didn't say anything this time. It was obvious that the dean was entrusting her with the care of her child.

"Then, I wish you good luck in martial arts."

Lilith took a deep breath and looked at the old man with gray hair in front of her. She still remembered that he had black hair decades ago. Time is unforgiving after all.

"Haha, don't make it seem like we're parting forever. If I come back after this successful eradication, I'll still be the dean, and you can continue to live a carefree life for decades."

The senior said with a smile and took a sip of tea.

"Okay, I look forward to your return."

Dean Xu nodded, then took out a key from his arms and handed it to Lilith.

"This is a magic key to important areas of the academy. For example, my study and the academy treasury can be opened with this key."

"Don't worry, the key will be returned to you intact when I come back."

Lilith took it silently. The key had an ancient shape and was very heavy, with runes of magic circles engraved all over its surface.

"Okay, that's all I have to say. I have to go and gather everyone. You can do whatever you want here. Oh, by the way, maybe you should change your habit of adding so much honey to your tea."

The dean nodded to Lilith, then walked out of the room with his magic wand.

Lilith drank the honey tea in the cup in one gulp, leaving a rich aroma of honey and tea in her mouth.

"It's too sweet. Too sweet to be sickening."

Chapter 41

The center of the human empire

Imperial Capital

In the earliest historical records that humans can currently find, the imperial capital has always maintained the highest military, political, economic and other status among the human race, and has always been the heartland of the human empire.

"Oh oh oh!"

On a sacred road not far from the imperial capital, a team of carriages was rapidly approaching the imperial capital. La Luna stuck her head out of the carriage and saw the grandeur that could not be described in words.

The imperial capital is different from other peripheral cities. It does not have tall and solid walls like other cities. Instead, it does not have any walls at all. Even from the plains outside, the entire structure of the capital can be seen at a glance.

La Luna had previously claimed to be well-read, but the imperial capital described in the books was always vastly different from what she had seen. It was too pale and powerless to describe something of this level with words.

The entire imperial capital was constructed from high in the center to gradually low around it. LaLuna remembered the ruins she had seen underground, but compared to that ruins, the imperial capital was obviously more complete. Not to mention that the palace in the center towered above all cities like the king of cities, and there was actually a whole floating island above the palace, overlooking all the buildings on the ground like a god. Although the island was blocked by clouds, LaLuna could still feel the magical fluctuations coming from it.

"According to the description of the anti-gravity magic circle, the largest magic circle seems to be 15 square meters, right?"

Take another look at the huge floating island in the sky. I'm afraid there are countless anti-gravity magic arrays under the island, and the most terrifying thing is that these arrays have to be put into operation.

La Luna couldn't even imagine what kind of magic supply device was on it.

"We are about to enter the imperial capital, everyone slow down!"

As they were getting closer to the imperial capital, the convoy's speed gradually slowed down, and La Luna saw a checkpoint-like place not far away that was checking passing vehicles one by one.

"Hey, wake up, we're in the imperial capital."

La Luna turned around and nudged the driver who was sleeping soundly beside her.

“Ahh?? Here…are we?”

"Okay, wipe the saliva from the corner of your mouth first."

La Luna pulled out a tissue with a look of disgust and threw it into his hand.

The driver smiled awkwardly and gently wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth with a tissue.

"Ahem, Lord Laluna, after you enter the palace, please rest in the outer hall before going to see the emperor."

The driver pointed at La Luna's messy hair and torn clothes.

Because the clothes he was wearing were ordinary clothes he had bought in the academy before, and after the fight, they were inevitably torn in several places, and there were blood stains all over them. However, La Luna was afraid that there would be a bad smell after a long time, so she used cleaning magic to wash it off.

But magic can't repair torn clothes, that's a job only a tailor can do.

Moreover, with the driver following her all the time, she was too embarrassed to change clothes because both of them were wearing tattered clothes and it would be more of a mixed group.

If I changed into a clean set of clothes, while the driver following me was still wearing tattered and dirty clothes, how would others see me?

However, I didn't expect that the driver would be the first to dislike me.

"Let's go into the city first, meow."

La Luna suddenly thought of a very fatal question.

It seems that you need to scan your ID card to enter the city?

I don't.

How do I get in later?

Before, it was quite convenient to enter and exit the city with the identity of a lecturer in the college, but it seems that they don’t care about that thing here.

La Luna looked at the people at the checkpoint ahead, all of whom took out their IDs and were allowed to pass. La Luna's mind went blank at this moment.

Coachman, coachman, use your invincible royal status to think of a solution! !

"Stop the car, check it, and everyone show your ID."

At the checkpoint, the soldiers repeated this sentence over and over again to every carriage and pedestrian passing by.

All of the people in the convoy jumped out immediately and showed their previously prepared identity cards to the soldiers one by one.

La Luna was a little at a loss for a moment, so she had to pull back the driver who was about to check her identity and spoke quietly.

"Hey, what should I do if I don't have this thing?"

"Ah?! You don't have an ID?"

How do I do this?

The coachman scratched his head vigorously. If the carriage that symbolized the royal family was still there, he wouldn't have to go through this level and could just go in directly.

But the carriage had long been destroyed and all the dust had been blown away.

Instead of thinking about such unrealistic things, it is better to think about more practical issues.

"How about you turn into a cat and hide in the car. After we enter the city, I will go back to the palace and ask His Majesty to help you complete the formalities."

"Oh."

La Luna quickly looked around and after making sure that no one was looking at her, she transformed back into a kitten with a bang under the cover of the driver's body.

"Meow meow."

Aluna nodded to the driver and jumped back onto the cart.

"Okay, everyone has been checked, let go."

After the driver verified his identity, the soldier looked behind to make sure there was no one there, then waved his hand and was about to let the driver go.

Just as the coachman and La Luna breathed a sigh of relief, a voice suddenly rang out.

"Wait a minute, I'm sorry, there seems to be one person in our team who hasn't been checked..."

(Oh, shut up!)

La Luna slapped her face with her little claws. The person who spoke was the young man who had talked to La Luna on the Shinto Road before. She didn't have such a bad impression of him before, so why did he suddenly become so stupid? ?

"Is there another person?"

The soldier walked out of the checkpoint and looked at their carriage with doubt.

"What about that person?"

"This, this I don't know where it went."

"You don't know either?"

Seeing this guy in a daze, the soldiers began to nervously clench their weapons.

When the driver saw that something was wrong, he immediately ran out to help.

"I say brother, brother, don't be nervous."

The driver ran down and pulled the soldier aside, then rummaged in his pocket and pulled out a royal certificate.

The soldier picked up the certificate doubtfully, looked through it carefully and confirmed that it was authentic.
