Don’t Confiscate My Citizenship: Chapter 18 Thalia is on pins and needles

Chapter 18 Thalia is on pins and needles

The sun is shining brightly and the breeze is blowing in the Iclita College.

 Many campus areas are equipped with magic screens like commercial streets.

These screens not only provide students and staff with real-time information, notifications and academic activities, but also display a variety of interesting short films and live events of major campus events.

Hence, these screens sometimes become the focus of attention and discussion during breaks in the academy.

 For example, right now.

The entrance examination is being broadcast every year, which is quite interesting for many old students.

 Many people just want to see the freshmen suffer or be embarrassed, and there are also upperclassmen who want to discover potential newcomers in advance and recruit them to join the team.

 Only seen on the screen.

 The wind and snow howled, creating a majestic scene.

While other candidates were still struggling in the ice and snow, Lan Qi had already met the conditions for passing the test.

 He sat in the warm room and baked snacks by the stove.

The appearance is skillful and comfortable, and there is no tension at all about challenging the film world, as if he is filming a new advertisement for the Holy Land-flavored desserts.

  Next, he only needs to wait for the time limit of the Artificial Shadow World to end and the terminal to complete the settlement of his score.

 Even though there were not many students who paid attention to Lan Qi's operation just now.

 But with a few exclamations.

 The students soon started to spread the word.

 “Do you know what this guy just did!?”

"What?"

 “He is such a bastard! He went straight to arrest that family!”

 “This can be considered as allowing people to live a warm winter?”

 “Just say he didn’t fulfill the requirements, he really did.”

 “Hahahaha! What a logic genius!”

 The terrace of the Learning and Education Building.

 Those who were waiting here were sitting or standing, and many people were already surrounding the high-hanging screen, forming a lively small circle.

 Many people have begun to discuss what kind of rising star this young man named "Lanchi Wilford" is.

However, no one present had known this name before.

Only one student wearing Alchemy Academy jewelry mentioned that he had heard of a company called "Wilford Chamber of Commerce", and it was said that the chairman had an evil son.

 But he had never heard of this young hero Lan Qi.

   …”

Thalia listened to the students gradually paying attention to Lanqi's discussion.

Sitting on the edge of the terrace, waiting on the outdoor wooden chair, she lowered her head silently and looked away from the magic screen.

 Although she had just been observing Lan Qi’s movements in the corner of the split screen.

 But when she truly understood Lan Qi’s approach and people’s exclamations echoed around her.

She just wants to escape from here, as far away as possible.

Because she started to hear people talking: "This guy named Lan Qi's behavior really doesn't look like a human being. Could he be a spy of the demon clan?"

 It sent a shiver down her spine.

Talia would never want to be misunderstood as a dangerous target that needs to be focused on because she got too close to Lanqi.

 These are really not what she taught...

 In fact, during the past three months of getting along with Lan Qi, she gradually discovered that this young man's thinking and personality were somewhat unusual.

 But it was only now that she was finally convinced.

This guy has some kind of serious illness!

 Staying by his side, it’s impossible not to be noticed.

However.

 According to agreement.

 She must protect Lan Qi and continue to be Lan Qi's teacher.

  When I think about leaving the academy with Lan Qi later, I will have to stay in the royal capital with Lan Qi at least for a while.

 She felt like she was being roasted on a fire.

If she has endured it for a long time and the great cause of national restoration that she has been thinking about in her heart will eventually be discovered because of this human being, and her achievements will fall short.

Then she just wants to die with Lan Qi.

 Now she hopes that Lan Qi will come out of the examination room quickly and leave here with her. She also hopes that Lan Qi will never come out. She doesn't want to be seen staying together.

                    

Thalia muttered through gritted teeth.

 She clenched her palms tightly, feeling like she was on pins and needles every second.

 After the demon clan destroyed the country, she wandered alone for decades.

 This was the first time that a human had made her feel such pain.

 …

 The seven-story atrium of the Learning and Education Building combines modern design with natural elements. Skylights allow daylight to fill the entire space.

 Indoor green plants surround the atrium, and there are some art installations and sculptures next to it, which add a soft humanistic atmosphere to the atrium.

The examiner standing in the atrium, Loren, the dean of the Sage Academy, is clenching his fists now.

 The test questions this time were chosen by him personally.

 According to the analysis of historians, this first-order shadow world [Hidden Flame of Winter] was originally supposed to be the dilemma that the last holy emperor, who was known for his benevolence and righteousness, encountered in his early years in the ancient civilization of this world tens of thousands of years ago.

The legendary figure that Loren revered the most has always been this benevolent and righteous holy emperor.

 Every deed of the Holy Emperor made Loren admire him immensely.

 In fact, for this exam, Loren not only wanted to test the “wisdom and character” of the freshmen.

More importantly, I hope to make them understand the situation and state of mind in which the Holy Emperor helped the villagers.

 And the helplessness and sadness the Holy Emperor felt when he discovered the truth.

However, he was still able to remain unwavering and continue to implement his firm belief in benevolence and righteousness.

 “Abominable…”

 However, this boy named Ranch Wilford.

 His operations.

It seems that the Holy Emperor is stupid.

 Is it also possible to directly sacrifice the heart of benevolence and righteousness in exchange for demonic power?

 Just like that, waiting for the exam time to end.

Loren raised his head and stared at Lanqi, who was leisurely baking sweets on the huge magic screen in the atrium.

 Feeling like there is a fire burning in my heart.

If he could enter the shadow world, he would really like to kick this broken stove away!

“This guy’s magic power is so weak, why is he a candidate in our college?”

Loren finally calmed down and muttered to himself doubtfully.

 From the moment he arrived at the examination room, he sensed the magic power of all the candidates.

He remembered that Lan Qi's magic power was undoubtedly the lowest in the field, even inferior to many physics candidates in the Knights Academy.

If he hadn't noticed Lan Qi on the magic screen, Loren almost mistook Lan Qi for a candidate of the Knights Academy at first.

“If he can pass the first round of attribute tests when applying for admission, it can only be said that his mental attributes will be very high, which will make up for the total evaluation after weighting..."

“But how is he going to pass the practical exam...”

 The third round of assessment is different from the first two rounds of assessment. Apart from using one's own hard power, there is no opportunistic method.

 Loren was convinced that Ranchi was not a clergyman.

 There is no aura of divine protection on him.

Then Lanqi naturally can't use the priest-type magic cards that "affect the amount of healing with mental strength".

 …

 The angle of the light passing through the glass dome gradually changes in the atrium, like a hand of time, recording the passage of every moment.

 The exam is finally coming to an end.

 The candidates were sent out from the huge spiral void door in the order they entered.

  Until all the reference personnel had left the artificial shadow world, Loren gently touched the secret key on the terminal and closed the door to the void.

 Subsequently, Artificial Shadow World started the terminal and began the final calculation of the exam results.

Loren stood on the high platform and looked around. He saw many qualified candidates who had not yet left the examination room and were scattered in the atrium. Some could not hide their joy, while others had dull expressions.

 Although it is impossible to know the status of other candidates’ Shadow World conquests during the exam.

 But there are obviously many very confident candidates. They are very sure that their score in the film world this time is definitely one of the best.
