Your notoriety is known to everyone.

When Prince Leiaide saw Lufia's complaining eyes, the corners of his mouth twitched and he tried to force out a gentle, slightly embarrassed smile:

"Your mother misses you too. If I hadn't stopped her, she would have come to find you when you followed Luo Gesi and sneaked out.

"If you follow Luo Gesi and do those dangerous things again this time, I will definitely not be able to persuade her. You also know her temper..."

Lufia was silent for a while after hearing this, and then she hummed softly. Then she packed up her few luggage, then reluctantly said goodbye to Alina and Logos, and turned around in three steps. Prince Leiaide left the Holy Mountain together.

In the next few days, Luo Gesi stayed in the courtyard on the mountainside. The priests who came to look for him became more and more frequent. The content was basically that someone wanted to visit him, but Luo Gesi refused them directly. .

A week later, High Priest Yalodwo, the guardian of the mountain, was about to leave for the Holy City to observe the God Sacrifice Competition. He deliberately found Luo Gesi.

"After I leave, there will be no authoritative person in the Holy Mountain who can resist the desires of the outside world. Moreover, you have stayed in the Holy Mountain for too long, which has also brought unnecessary stigma to the Pantheon. The outside world is speculating whether the Temple wants to stay in the Holy Mountain." Before you die, squeeze all the value out of you..."

Luo Gesi couldn't help laughing when he heard this. I don't know how many people outside the mountain have the intention of digging out more knowledge before he died. He didn't expect that they would use themselves to save others and put this kind of selfish desire in the Pantheon. On the head.

After apologizing to High Priest Yalodwo, Luo Gesi no longer stayed on the Holy Mountain. He packed up his luggage and set off the next day, passing through the carriage and teleportation array, heading straight to the imperial capital.

……

It was midsummer now, and the sun was mercilessly burning the earth, making everything hot.

Luo Gesi had just entered the imperial capital in a carriage. Through the carriage window, he watched the pedestrians on the street escaping from the blazing sun. Their faces were tired and anxious, and they were hurriedly walking with sweat.

There was very little breeze and only the occasional heat wave, making it feel even more oppressive.

"I've finally waited for you!"

Not long after traveling, a voice full of surprise came from outside the car. Rogers moved his eyes slightly and saw Addis standing next to the car.

The other party was currently wearing coarse short-sleeved shirts and shorts, showing no aristocratic style at all.

Rogers supported his cane, stepped out of the carriage with the support of Alice and Alina, and looked up at the brand new building in front of him.

Behind the tall and majestic door are buildings of different heights. They are made of heavy stones and stand tall and orderly.

"This is the public school I built according to your requirements. In order to make it complete as soon as possible, I worked with the workers personally after I came back.

"The public school has not officially opened yet, but I have hired some teachers and chefs from your royalties. Many homeless children who originally lived in the Osage District, that is, in the devil's stomach, have been I settled in.

"However, there are too many poor people in Osek District. I am afraid that this public school cannot even educate one-tenth of the children, so I can only filter out those with some talents and include them in the school."

Edith led Luo Gesi into the campus, constantly telling the story of what he had done after hearing Luo Gesi's instructions.

The public school at your feet was built on the edge of the Osage district. Tuition was free, and most of the knowledge you learned were based on basic textbooks compiled by Rogers, mainly including grammar, mathematics and simple physics.

Arriving in the shadow of a towering tower, shielded from the scorching heat, Rogers looked up. Through the [Enlightenment Miracle], he could sense that there were already hundreds of children distributed in more than a dozen classrooms. Teachers learn the most basic literacy skills.

"Working with the workers in person? So now you..."

After taking a closer look, Rogers turned his head to look at Addis, who was dressed in civilian clothes, with obvious exploration in his tone.

For magicians, it is an unbearable shame to be involved in basic labor like civilians.

As for nobles, they can only work when they go to the homes of higher-ranking nobles to undergo glorious knight training.

As both a magician and a descendant of a great noble, Edith worked as a basic laborer with the common people in the imperial capital. I am afraid that in order to build the public school as soon as possible, he used magic uncontrollably.

His family would probably not react at all when faced with something that was degrading to their dignity and honor.

"I am not the first in line to succeed, and I have already taken off my surname at this time. I have completely separated from the family. I am ready to serve the great man wholeheartedly and no longer worry about worldly things."

Addis caressed her chest and leaned forward, expressing her enthusiasm towards Rogers with a pious expression.

He then continued to lead the way, introducing buildings such as office buildings, dormitories, and canteens to Rogers.

He didn't take the initiative to ask about Logos and the Catastrophe of Wind during the whole process. In his opinion, how could a god be hurt by a mere disaster? All of this was probably just God's plan.

After visiting the public school and returning to the school gate, Rogers took out a "Guide to Occultism" from his sleeve and handed it to Edith:

"Let's include this book in the teaching materials. I consciously wrote this book to be fairly easy to understand, without the various thresholds found in ordinary classics."

Just as he handed the book out, a carriage came at a gallop. When the door opened, several people in magic robes stepped out of the carriage.

"I didn't expect you to actually come to the imperial capital. My name is Bai Karen, and I'm a clerk in the Magician's Mansion. You can follow me to the mansion to rest first."

Baicullen had curly brown hair and wore thick glasses on his nose. His expression was very eager, but when he saw the "Guide to Mysticism" in Edith's hand and thought of the various rumors about this public school, his face froze for a moment.

Then when he opened his mouth to tentatively inquire about the book, an old man beside him tugged on his sleeve without leaving any trace, stopping what he almost blurted out.

Luo Gesi naturally took all these little tricks in his eyes. Most of the people who would join the staff of the magician's mansion were wild mages who had no fixed school of thought and could only travel and study hard.

After he established the Demonic Community and made his academic research public, it was this group of people who felt the deepest feelings and benefited the most.

But similarly, if he vows to decentralize occult and magical knowledge to the citizens of the empire, and even the poor people in the Osek District can have access to this "noble knowledge", the first to be affected will be This type of people.

Because this will definitely dilute their privileges and thus cause a certain decline in their status.

The first thought of most people who eat the cake first is to hide the cake first instead of sharing it with other hungry people.

"Thank you for your reception. It just so happens that I also lack a place to stay. Let's go now."

Logos thanked him, dismissed the carriage he had rented after arriving in the Imperial Capital, and boarded the special carriage of the Magician's Mansion with Alice and Alina.

……

When they arrived at the mansion, under the leadership of Bai Kalun, they walked through the carefully arranged gardens, walked among the elegant flower beds and fountains, passed through the winding paths, and arrived at the familiar villa in the forest.

Luo Gesi clearly remembered that the last time he came to the imperial capital, he stayed here. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Bai Kalun's flattering look, and he followed the other person's intention and praised him: "I'd like to thank you for your attentiveness." ”

Say goodbye to each other and go to the bedroom on the second floor. As usual, the large bed in the room is covered with exquisite silk quilts and pillows. There is a small bookshelf in the corner, and the bookshelf is piled with various books and works of art.

The sofa in the corner is soft and comfortable, and paired with an exquisite coffee table, it forms a unique rest area.

Luo Gesi waved his magic power and drew a layer of gauze curtains, vaguely blocking the view of the outside world. The weak light circulated ethereally in the room, dotting out faint light and shadow, making the entire space seem to be enveloped in a tranquil halo. among.

"Just stay here until school starts."

He lay down on the soft sofa and felt a dense and comfortable touch.

Now is not the time for him to die. At the very least, he wants more magicians to know his determination to spread knowledge.

After all, it hasn't been long since the last time he expressed his decision at the Logos Academy in his own territory.

"Can your body hold up? Isn't it uncomfortable?"

Alice sat next to Luo Gesi, looking at Luo Gesi's expression that was obviously much more tired than before, and his increasingly clumsy posture, she couldn't help but worry.

She could foresee how many magicians and scholars would bother Luo Gesi next, and they probably wouldn't give him much time to rest.

"I can probably last about two months..."

Rogers opened his palms, looked down at the slightly pale palms, and replied speculatively.

Although he had the help of the other three major spiritual disasters, the Great Wind Catastrophe still put a considerable burden on Luo Gesi's body because it was much more mature than the other three disasters.

Like a curse, his muscles became weaker day by day, his breathing gradually became difficult and shallow, and the loss of energy and stamina were also obvious.

He once released the [Storage Special] for a second, and the strong wind was like a sharp blade, tossing back and forth in his flesh and blood, violently stimulating his nerves, which was simply not something ordinary people could bear.

Alice's soft lips trembled slightly, and the hesitation caused ripples in the depths of her soul, like waves rolling on the surface of a lake.

After hesitating for a moment, she finally spoke with difficulty and asked: "Are you really faking your death? Aren't you lying to me?"

She could clearly feel Luo Gesi's physical condition with the [Special Intuition], and the increasingly depressed aura did not seem to be something that could be faked.

And as a saint, she also knows what the great disaster represents. The process of dealing with the wind disaster is completely different from the previous three disasters.

During the few days she stayed in the Holy Mountain, she once heard the high priest of the mountain guard say that Luo Gesi might have foreseen the future, foreseeing a future in which only his death could achieve his wishes. Go to death without hesitation and generosity.

Looking back on the past, Luo Gesi has been devouring the disasters. At this moment, he has dealt with the four strongest disasters, but she understands that the spirituality of the disasters will not dissipate at all.

As her death approached, Alice gradually became afraid. She was afraid that Logos' so-called resurrection was a lie to her. What Logos did was simply to help her clear as many obstacles as possible before his death.

Because as long as he dies, the four major disasters will also pass away with him.

"of course not."

Looking at Alice's complicated expression, Rogers raised his hand to rub his forehead and couldn't help but sigh.

He could predict that ascending to gold would be no different from ascending to silver, and the destined death would definitely chase him again.

According to the idea, he also wanted to play out a plot where he was plotted by someone, making it difficult for him to suppress the disaster, and then Alice executed him personally.

In his original destiny, after he survived Kevin's punch, he should have been killed by Alice.

With this symbol of a closed loop of destiny, Logos could completely infect the spells related to destiny in the process of sacrifice and ascension, just like the birth of the spiral sword.

Just looking at the appearance of this saintly lady, he still didn't know how to speak.

After pondering for a moment, he thought over and over about the ritual that had been prepared for so long, and still thought about making it more perfect.

Then he leaned forward slightly, looked at Alice solemnly, with strong determination in his eyes, and said in a deep voice:

"Do you still remember? After enrolling, we made a bet for the Shadow Demon, and you still owe me a request for this."

Chapter 4 Why Me? (k)

Click——

There was a slight cracking sound of the fruit being bitten, and Alina held the apple in her hand and chewed it slowly, without any intention of participating in the conversation between Logos and Alice.

After Luo Gesi expressed his thoughts and requirements, apart from the sound of Alina's chewing, there was only the faint sound of breathing and the chirping of cicadas in the distance.

Alice's eyes were stagnant in the void, confused and dazed, and her long flaxen hair fell gently on her forehead, as if the weight of the world suddenly weighed on her and she didn't know how to react.

No matter the noise outside or the silence inside, it seemed difficult to enter her confused consciousness. Her expression was dazed, and the complex emotions were condensed on her gradually pale face, like a tightly closed bud.

"why me?"

After a long time, she slowly raised her head, stared at Luo Gesi intently, and asked softly. Her voice was like the gentle breeze blowing through the leaves, but with a hint of obvious irritation.

"Because of fate, you should have killed me in the destined trajectory. Whether it was the Shadow Demon or the incident in the cave trial of the Three Sages School, they were just derivatives of this fate.

“It’s like this with bronze, it’s like this with silver, and it will definitely be like this when I ascend to gold, but I want to make this third trajectory complete to facilitate my carefully planned ritual.

"As long as I complete this fate, I will not only be able to escape the realm defined by fate, but I may also be able to obtain a certain degree of immortality.

"A lot of symbolism is taught in the basic magic theory courses in school. If you think about it a little, you should be able to easily understand the logic with the help of symbols."

Logos once again explained the reason to Alice in more detail, but the other party's expression gradually became irritable.

She frowned slightly, and there was a hint of uneasiness and anxiety in her eyes, as if the ripples in her heart were getting more intense.

Suddenly, she stood up suddenly, as if she wanted to break free from some kind of restraint and release the restlessness and irritability deep in her heart.

"why me?!"

Alice's tone was trembling, with a kind of powerlessness and helplessness, every word seemed to be squeezed out from the bottom of her heart, and she repeated the question just now.

"Ah, it's fate. According to the original..."

Rogers scratched his head and was about to continue to describe from a symbolic perspective how significant it was for Alice to do it herself, but after seeing the other party's expression, he slowly stopped talking.

There was no struggle on Alice's face, and an empty silence reflected in her eyes. Only silent tears were slowly flowing, and there was no telling there. Only pure sadness was reflected in her clear pupils.

She lowered her head gently, clenched her hands into fists, and her tears fell one by one, falling to the ground, but she still remained silent, not letting a single sound leak out.

She kept breathing, trying to make the choking and sadness subside, but the tears kept falling like a drizzle.

After a while, Alice quickly left the space that had become solemn and oppressive because of her, and gently closed the bedroom door after leaving.

"I thought that as you grow older, your extremely bad nature has improved a lot..."

Alina stared down at the apple in her hand with a calm expression. She gently stroked the round surface of the peel with her fingertips and spoke in a quiet tone.

"I expected that she would be unhappy, but I didn't expect that she would be so resistant. This is just a ceremony, and besides speaking out, there is really no better way to request."

Rogers put his hands behind his head, leaned back on the sofa, sighed and whispered.

During the ceremony, regarding time and space, he had the [Time Sequence Special Code] and the Four Spiritualities; regarding creation, he had inventions and creations that could move the entire era forward; and regarding destiny, the best fuel he could think of was Ally. Si and his destiny plot.

If Alice doesn't come to help, there will inevitably be something missing in this aspect of destiny, and the tripartite nature will not be complete.

When he ascended to silver, Luo Gesi had already received the huge benefits of these three perfect symbols, and the sacrifices for ascending to gold were much richer than when he ascended to silver. He really didn't want to ascend to gold with regrets like this.

"Destiny...fate...this damn fate..."

Luo Gesi murmured in his mouth, constantly thinking about the symbols that could involve fate in his mind. As he thought about it, he slowly glanced at his eyes, focused his eyes on Alina, and opened his mouth and said:

"Well, how about you..."

Before finishing speaking, Alina immediately waved her arms and stuffed the uneaten apple in her palm into Luo Gesi's mouth.

She used great strength, as if she wanted to stuff it all in and completely block Luo Gesi's mouth.

Then she stood up angrily, glanced at Rogers coldly, turned around and left the bedroom, and slammed the door back hard, making a dull "bang" sound that echoed in the room.
