Chapter 14: Disguise (《》)

The day of departure finally came. Early in the morning, the entire Magic Academy teachers and students came out in an empty group and were crowded in the college square. This was a major event involving the honors of the entire college, so of course it was for grandeur.

The students selected to participate in the exchange conference were arranged in several cases according to the grade. Everyone held their chests high, and they deliberately wanted to have a serious expression on their excited faces. They didn't look at each other, but they often couldn't help but quickly glanced around. When they saw the envious eyes of their classmates, they felt more and more proud.

Those who can be selected to participate in such important competitions are naturally top figures in the same age group. As one of the five major magic academies, being able to become a top figure means that even if they look at the whole world, they are also top.

Little Jimmy, who was also blushing with excitement, was also in it, but unlike her companions raising their high heads, Jimmy was excited but tiptoed to look at the team where the teachers were, trying to find a familiar figure.

When he heard Gris say he would also attend the exchange conference, Jimmy jumped three feet high on the spot and then didn't fall asleep all night. She was even more excited than when she learned that she was selected.

Children are relatively simple in their minds and often regard their elders closest to them as idols. In their minds, even if their idol is a pig-killer, they must be the most powerful pig-killer in the world.

After spending half a year together, Jimmy little has long regarded Gris as his idol. In his mind, Gris is the most powerful magician, and even Dean Alex has to stand aside.

Although Gris had not cast any powerful magic, his ability to control the elements like the fingers of the arm still made little Jimmy, who had just seen the magic path, admired it very much, and regarded it as the truth and tried hard to imitate it.

Jimmy, who is younger than a young age, doesn't care too much about the so-called honor. What he cares more about is a compliment from Gris. This simple love for the curtain made him very eager to see his performance in the exchange conference.

However, he also realized that an alternative existence like Gris could not appear in front of everyone in a panic, but he still couldn't help but look around.

After everyone arrived, Alex came late. He was struggling to carry a large suitcase in his hand, with an expression of anger on his face. From time to time, he shook the suitcase in his hand with a hurried look, and a hint of pleasure flashed in his eyes.

If it weren't for the noisy surroundings, you could hear the sound of bones hitting from the suitcase.

As the head of the hospital, he naturally didn't need to do such heavy skills himself. In fact, someone had moved his clothes and luggage from his house to the carriage. However, everyone did not expect that the dean actually missed a suitcase.

A few attentive guys rushed forward and reached out to take the suitcase from the dean's hand. But Alex waved his hand and rushed to the side. There were a bunch of bones inside, and they were still alive. They were not afraid that others would disperse him, but they would also have to prevent him from falling out and scaring others.

"Sir, you are here, let me say a few words?" The slightly fat director came up, greeted him, and asked.

According to the past practice, after all the personnel were present, the director would give a speech. In the past, Alex was too lazy to attend such exchange meetings. Even if he was present, he would only be a bystander. But this year, he didn't know what happened, so the dean actually decided to lead the team himself.

Even if the dean takes action, it will not be his first place to speak.

"Well, that's OK, I'll say a few words." Alex refused.

The director of the teaching signaled to the side, and two magicians wearing intermediate mage robes walked over and stood on both sides of Alex, muttering in his mouth. After a sharp and strong whistle, the amplified magic of the wind system took shape.

The scene became quiet, and everyone held their breath and prepared to listen to the speech of the dean.

"Students!" Alex's voice clearly reached everyone's ears through the amplification magic.

"Everyone has worked hard for studying. I have already ordered the cafeteria to have a meal today..."

Before Alex could finish his words, he immediately interrupted a burst of cheers that surged into the sky: "Long live the dean!!"

"So you don't have to envy these students who attended the conference, they have no good fortune."

There was a burst of laughter in the field.

"But everyone still has to work hard to be selected next time. The exchange meeting is still very meaningful. Only with communication can we make progress. In the process of learning magic, such exchange meeting will help you summarize your gains and losses and understand the principles of magic more deeply. So I hope everyone will work hard."

After a pause, Alex continued: "I want to say a few words to the students attending this conference. You are all elites selected by the academy and carry the honors of the academy. In the next period of time, you will prove yourself and prove the strength of the Belkin Royal Magic Academy in the ring and in front of your opponents."

"However, you are the future and hope of the college. The honor is collective. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. You are still young and have the opportunity to fail. The most important thing is to protect yourself. So, Dean, I hope you will not be hurt and do your best."

To him, any honor is bullshit, just don’t get hurt.

Alex's words were filled with a deep concern, and the students were very moved, and many active elements shouted again: "Long live the dean."

Alex retreated, and the director immediately stepped forward, coughed and said, "I'll add a few more words."

It was like a booing voice from a bereaved mother.

There were bustling people, and finally they set off. Dozens of teachers and students were divided into eleven carriages and galloping on the road. This magic exchange conference was held in the Frederick Empire. They are now heading to Frederick's capital, the Imperial City, where there is a Frederick Magic Academy, one of the five major magic academys.

As the dean, Alex has his own privilege. He has a special car, and he doesn't have to squeeze in a carriage like other teachers and students.

After closing the windows tightly, Alex opened the suitcase and Gris supported himself.

"How do you think?" Alex asked with concern. If it were only one person, he would have been suffocated to death in such a small box. However, Gris was not a human, but Alex still felt worried. He did not want the servant assistant he had finally found to be killed with his apprentice.

Gris shook his head, except for feeling the joints a little loose, there was no other problem.

"That's good. It will take more than ten days to get to the Imperial City here. We are all in the car, so you don't have to hide in the box." No one dares to get into his car casually, so it's not a big problem for Gris to stay like this.

After hearing this, Gris nodded, picked up his bones with both hands and started to connect them.

To be honest, this scene is really amazing. Although I have seen it twice, Alex feels that his same part is a little sour whenever Gris takes a piece of bone.

This is not a solution. Should I give Gris a look that can appear in front of ordinary people?

In fact, with his identity as the dean of Belkin Academy and the strength of a great magician, raising a skeleton as a pet is not a big deal, and no one dares to find him on his head.

But the problem is that his skeleton is really unusual. Although he always curses the half-baked author, he also knows that what is described in the book should be correct, but his skeleton is a little special.

Ordinary skeletons are not wise. Gris not only has them, but also is very smart. Alex was deeply hit. Such smart skeletons can easily cause panic if exposed to the world.

Having a headache, Alex simply asked: "Is there any way you can change your appearance so that people can't tell you are a skeleton?"

Can't tell it's a skeleton? Gris, who had just put all the bones on, was stunned.

According to the explanation in "Skeleton Soldier", skeletons are the movable bones, which is easy to do.

Gris lay down, extinguished the fire in his eyes, and remained motionless.

Alex beat Gris' head in anger: "I told you to change your appearance, I'm not asking you to pretend to be dead."

Gris looked up and looked at Alex up and down, then dragged Alex's suitcase out of the rear compartment and took out a few clothes.

Alex's eyes lit up: "Good idea, try putting it on."

What does it mean to be as thin as a hair? Gris, who wears clothes, can perfectly interpret this word. Alex, who is already very thin, suddenly turned into a robe when he puts on Gris' body, and the clothes fit on his body, clearly outlining the ribs on Gris' chest.

"Aren't you afraid of heat?" Alex, who was looking at him, suddenly asked.

Gris shook his head, not to mention heat, he had no sense of temperature at all. When he was practicing fire magic before, Gris burned his bones several times until he turned white, and he didn't react.

"That's fine, let's do it first." Alex said, picking up an exquisite shirt, scratching his fingers a few times, tearing them into strips of cloth, and then holding up Gris' arm and wrapping them carefully.

"This is how, then this is how, do you understand? Try to wrap yourself into a mummy, as long as it doesn't affect your activity." After demonstrations several times, he let Gris do it himself, while staying aside and talking nonsense, which shows his lazy personality.

"You can't wrap your waist and abdomen like this, so how many strips of cloth will you spend? Use two pieces of clothes to plug and wrap it up."

"Don't wrap your neck so hard, otherwise how can you move. Relax the joints and don't expose the bones."

"The biggest problem now is your eyes." Looking at Zhan's newly formed "mummy", Alex nodded with satisfaction. What kind of quirky outfits in this world? Some people who are sick or burned will wrap their bodies with strips. Although this outfit is also very weird, it will not be as shocking as a living bone stand, and it is obviously wise skeleton.

Now even if you see him suddenly, you will think that this is a seriously injured patient at the first time.

The only thing that will reveal his identity is Gris's eye sockets. The skeleton has no sense of touch or smell. The eye sockets are the only channel that can sense the outside world. If he wraps his eye sockets around, he will not be able to see anything.

Alex pursed his lips, a hesitant expression appeared on his face. After thinking for a long time, he made a decision and said reluctantly: "Forget it, you're a bargain, this is my favorite glasses."

After saying that, he took out a small box from his suitcase, opened it and saw it contained a pair of glasses with pure gold frames and dark blue lenses.

The entire lens is polished from pure water-based magic crystals. People who know the goods can see the value of this lens at a glance. Magic crystal is a crystal-like energy polymer with a solid texture and stable structure. The water-based magic crystal contains rich water-based magic elements. No one can understand its formation principle yet.

This kind of material processing is very difficult because the magic elements contained in it cannot be processed using magical means and can only be processed through physical means. The magic crystal itself has a very strong texture and its hardness is almost comparable to the strongest diamond.

If you can only use physical techniques, it is already difficult to change the shape of the magic crystal, let alone polish it into a transparent sheet. These two lenses alone will take more than three years for a skilled craftsman.

Compared to lenses, the exquisite pure gold frame is simply worthless.

The only function of this pair of glasses is to block the light. In the case of intense sunlight, it can reduce the interference of strong light on the eyes and can cast spells more attentively.

However, after Alex became famous, it has not been done by himself for many years, so he rarely wears this pair of glasses.

But if you don’t need it, he doesn’t want to give it out easily. So he took out his glasses and the expression on Alex’s face seemed very painful. He hesitated for a while before handing it over.

Gris had no ears, and his pillow could only be stuffed into the bandage wrapped around the entire chest strap. Under the cover of the dark blue lenses, his deep eye sockets disappeared, and even the dark blue light in his eye sockets was invisible. Even if someone stared at his eyes, he would mistakenly think that the faint blue light was the reflection of the lenses.
