Bizarre Detective Agency: Chapter 944 11. Preparation for study
Chapter 944 Eleven. Study Preparation
"Um."
Only the nasal sounds do not carry strange onomatopoeia.
"I don't mean anything, I just... just want to..." Fudot couldn't say anymore, pulling at the corners of her wrinkled skirt.
After lunch, Lu Li put down his knife and fork and left in silence.
Fodort looked at Lu Li's back and did not hide his regrets and regrets.
"Even I can see that Lu Li is angry with you." He raised his dirty face in the rice bowl.
"If there is no way to close the mouth that eats filth!" Fudot vented his accumulated emotions.
"Puff puff puff..."
Fodor's companion called for her attention, shook off the strands of hair in front of her forehead, and suggested, "Lins, you can give Mr. Exorcist a gift."
"Gift?"
"How about a bucket of pumpkin pie?" said Dogmeat vaguely.
"He's not you!"
Fodort restrained himself from tearing his hated mouth, thinking about what Lu Li likes.
But pleasing people is painful and torturous for the youngest daughter of the Lins family. Fortunately, she has other ways to ease Lu Li's emotions.
Just bring back the book Lu Li needs.
…
In the lounge, Lu Li opened the curtains and opened the windows.
Noon is the time of day when the only meaningful time is to open a window.
As if the darkness before dawn shrouded the silent midnight city. The spire of the alchemy tower shone brighter than the stars. And you can see that there is a long light at the foot of the giant tree and a little light that moves slowly on the street a little further away.
is like a group of fireflies gathered under a big tree.
The linen shorts on the hanger are dry. Lu Li summoned the businessman Anthony, folded the washed shorts and handed it to him: "Give it back to Claire, meow."
"Can't find her."
In addition to having no fighting ability, merchants are almost one of the fastest races in the world. They only take less than an hour to travel tens of thousands of miles from the southernmost tip of the Dependent Continent to the northernmost tip of the Lennon Islands. There are limitations though: they can only reach where eyeballs are present.
In the old days, because of the cooperation between exorcists and merchants, there were eyeballs everywhere. Even every exorcist with eyeballs is a new coordinate...
And now, there are only a few lights in the Land of Light, Midnight City, and Wiener Freeze.
Arranging more coordinates is as important as finding new merchants.
The more merchants, the faster the delivery of supplies, the more able to meet the daily gap in the underground refuge area of Wiener Antifreeze.
Fewer people die...
"Then take it to the senior alchemy office...nah."
Lu Li overcame the side effects and failed again unexpectedly.
The businessman Anthony put on his shorts and disappeared, Lu Li sat at the desk in front of the window, and turned to the bookmarked "Occult Insights" in front of the dark scenery.
The side effects of alienation potions are not all bad.
The frequent visits and greetings by students and professors made Lu Li's time fragmented. Apart from sleeping, there is little coherent, undisturbed time.
Now Lu Li can focus more on the original purpose of this trip: learning to unleash the power of the cursed title.
The requirement to unleash the power of the cursed title is to advance to the middle grades, and to meet the prerequisites for study.
The former is not very difficult, as long as you accumulate enough credits, you can advance. 10 credits are required for lower grades to advance to middle grades. After meeting the requirements, you can choose to continue to accumulate credits, or general promotion.
Continuing to accumulate credits means impacting merit promotion and seed promotion. They respectively accumulate 15 credits and 20 credits, and the meanings they represent are more resources and opportunities.
But this has nothing to do with Lu Li - his purpose was never to successfully graduate from the Giant Tree Academy.
The first three levels of major courses will receive 2 credits for each level, and only 1 elective course.
In addition to the regular credits, some outstanding performances can also be awarded credits. It's just that the lower grades located in the canopy area are safe enough that lower grades have little chance of earning additional credits.
Perhaps only when something like the entangled soul of evil spirits that entered the giant tree two days ago happened, saving many classmates or expelling and destroying evil spirits can get extra credits.
Mysticism; Alchemy; Botanical Studies; Divination Lessons, Weird Knowledge, and the World.
These are four major courses and two elective courses selected by Lu Li.
They all qualify for exactly 10 credits for the middle grade requirement. At the same time, it is closer to the prerequisites for learning [Release the Cursed Title]: Mystery Class 7, Alchemy 3, Li World 2, Weird Knowledge 2, Botany 2, Divination 1.
This arrangement has good news and bad news.
The good news is that the assessment for promotion to Level 1 is mainly based on theory and will not test practice - Lu Li only needs to fill his mind with this knowledge, and he can even spare some energy to study the Level 2 course in advance.
The bad news is that the four major courses conflict with each other, and Lu Li needs to make a choice.
After two days of undisturbed study due to the side effects of alienation medicine, the fastest progress was in the study of strange knowledge, followed by the study of the world—because Lu Li knew them well enough.
Learning [Release the Cursed Title] requires the highest level of occultism, but because Lu Li does not know enough about the weird era, the progress is slow.
Despite this, he was still among the fastest-learning freshmen.
In the weird knowledge class in the afternoon, the old professor brought a new weirdness that was only contained in an iron cage.
It looks like a mole or anteater, with a slender, protruding snout that is not covered with dark hair, coming out of its cage to sniff.
"Does anyone know its name?"
The old professor waited for students to ask questions as usual.
"Doesn't anyone know? It's a shame... Mimic. That's what the old sewers call it."
"People?" A student mumbled in surprise.
"Don't ignore the word mimicry, Mr. Vincent."
The old professor didn't care about the students' muttering, his face gradually drooped, and his face covered with wrinkles and ravines became dark under the oil lamp.
"When an impersonator matures, it will find a human and ask 'Am I like a human'. If you answer no, it will lose its power of change, but if you answer like..."
The cold and deep old voice said slowly.
"It will become what we are..."
The classroom fell silent, and even some freshmen were frightened by him.
The old professor suddenly raised his head and regained his kindness: "Don't be careful, it won't replace us. Their mimetic skills are too bad, they can only become like us but not very similar... Well, you can understand growing up strangely. People. If you come across someone who is bizarre, maybe it's a mimesis."
"Don't underestimate this kind of change, for the weak and scavenger monsters like mimics, becoming human is a leap in the level of life..."
"Who knows? Maybe some mimics have turned into other weirdos, but we haven't found them yet. Sincerely hope that there will be new discoveries among you..."
answered the students' curious questions one after another. When the class was over, the old professor said "weird, dangerous and wonderful" as usual, and took the cage and left the classroom.
In the classroom that became lively after class, Fudot, who disappeared for the entire class, appeared in front of Lu Li who was about to leave.
"I got the book, Exorcist."
