Jill said, "Strange things? If I have to say something strange, it's that a while ago, a group of students who claimed to be from Laurel Academy entered Seaside City."
……
"Why do we have to go to Gold this time? There are civil unrest everywhere. If we weren't students of Laurel College, we would have died on the road!"
Somewhere on the beach in Seaside City, people in student uniforms gathered together.
These people looked young, all wearing white student uniforms and with the same badge with a laurel tree on their chests.
This is the logo representing Laurel College.
Laurel College is located in the northern part of the Rhine Country, close to the center of the land.
However, Laurel College is a little special.
Laurel College has a long history. There are many different opinions on how it was founded, but what is certain is that Laurel College has existed since ancient times, even longer than the ancient Rhine Kingdom.
Many students who graduated from here have left their mark in history and therefore enjoy a high reputation in this land.
Although this college is now located on the land of the Rhine Kingdom, it has a certain degree of autonomy.
Not only humans study at Laurel Academy, but some foreigners also enter Laurel Academy.
As long as you can graduate from Laurel College, it is equivalent to a golden signboard, full of gold content.
"You should know how many credits you can get if you can complete the research project "Gold's Black Tide", right? You can graduate directly without any problem. Risks and opportunities coexist! Now that you've come here, are you still thinking about regretting it?"
Another student reprimanded the student who was complaining.
"But……"
"Are you afraid of death? That's not necessary. Don't forget, who is the teacher who leads our research project this time?" The students of Laurel College are very proud.
Everyone's eyes followed his gaze and looked over there together.
I saw a beautiful human woman standing on a sea rock, looking into the distance.
The teacher's uniform of Laurel Academy wrapped her curvy body, black stockings covered her snow-white slender legs, and her long black hair like a waterfall fluttered gently in the sea breeze.
"She is one of the most outstanding disciples of the Sword Saint and a candidate for the Holy Sword Master, Teacher Hill!"
09 Hill (more)
"What is a sword master?"
"Young man, draw your sword, Feng Mingcheng."
"Can you give me more details?"
"Go alone, enter the battle array, and take the leader from the army."
"Can you be more specific?"
"Slay the dragon, never die, and be praised by thousands of people."
"Still confused?"
"Once invincible, now invincible!"
The students of Laurel College were discussing the legend of the Sword Master with great excitement.
The Sword Saint's reputation has long been known throughout the human world.
The Laurel Academy itself is located in the Rhine Country, and naturally there are many students from the human world. Even students from other races have been affected. Such legends have begun to spread to other races outside the human world.
Therefore, it is natural that Teacher Hill is popular.
She is a direct disciple of the human swordsman. She has outstanding strength and talent, and is even a candidate for the Holy Sword Master. It is no exaggeration to say that if the human swordsman Wright chooses to retire one day, then Hill still has a good chance of becoming the next Holy Sword Master.
In addition, Hill has outstanding appearance and temperament, making her the perfect goddess in many people's minds.
With such a swordsman leading the team, the students of Laurel Academy felt at ease while carrying out this research project.
"Speaking of which, an elder in our family had the honor of meeting the Sword Saint once and obtained his autograph. I'll give you a free gift with a deduction of 1."
"11111, big brother, are you really sending it to me?!"
The students of Laurel College were chattering among themselves.
Hill turned his gaze away from the sea, glanced at them, and silently counted the number of people in his mind.
one two three four five six seven……
Well, that’s good, there are quite a few people.
In fact, this trip to Gold is not only a test for the students, but also a test for her.
Hill has been attending Laurel College for nearly five years.
When others were still students at Laurel Academy, she was already a little teacher.
These of course rely on the titles of Sword Saint Disciple and Holy Sword Master Candidate.
However, these titles are just stepping stones, and there is no way to guarantee her subsequent teaching career. If she wants to be promoted from an ordinary teacher to a senior teacher, she needs proof of her achievements again.
If she can help the students complete the research project of "Gold's Black Tide", such achievement will be enough for her to be promoted to a senior teacher at Laurel College.
In fact, at the beginning, Laurel College was reluctant to agree to this research project because it believed that this research project was too dangerous.
But there was one student who was very persistent, his name was Albert. No one knew what means he used, but he managed to convince the other students.
Under the strong request of these seven students, Laurel College agreed, and Hill once again proved it and sent her to accompany the students to Gold.
Hill gently jumped back to the shore from the sea rock, walked to the students and asked, "Any new discoveries?"
"Teacher Hill, we made a major discovery last night!" One of them wanted to show off.
"Didn't I tell you that you are not allowed to move around at night? Did you hide it from me and conduct research without permission?" Hill said coldly.
In fact, if you just look at age, Hill is not much older than these students, they are basically the same age.
But the aura she displayed was enough to overwhelm everyone.
"Ah, this..."
Albert, who was standing next to him, saw this and quickly pulled the student who couldn't control his words behind him.
"Teacher Hill, we discovered that the black tide has occurred more than once in Gold. This is a major discovery!"
"Ok?"
Albert saw that Hill seemed to be interested, so he quickly changed the focus and continued speaking.
"Teacher Hill, we found an old man in Seaside City. His family has a record book that was passed down a long time ago. It records the history of Gold for thousands of years. We spent a lot of money to get permission from the old man to read it. After flipping through the record book, I found something extremely shocking!"
"go on."
"About a thousand years ago, the black tide had already appeared in Gold. However, the scale, frequency, and harm of the black tide at that time were completely incomparable to the current ones. The black tide in the past was very hidden. When it appeared, it only appeared on the sea and would not affect the coastal cities. Many Gold people did not notice that there was such an abnormality in this sea, and even thought it was just an ordinary shipwreck. But in recent years, the black tide has undergone a drastic change and has become the horrific disaster it is now!"
"Anymore?"
"This is all we know now," Albert shook his head. "I feel that these written materials still have too little description. If we really want to understand the true face of the Kuroshio, we may need to experience it in person..."
"Hey, what are you talking about, Albert? Don't say anything unlucky!!"
The student next to him patted his shoulder.
Albert also realized that his previous remarks were a bit too outrageous, making the atmosphere a bit awkward.
"The research project of Gold's Black Tide is proceeding normally. It must comply with the school rules of Laurel College and be carried out within a safe range. Any actions must be reported to me. If anyone acts without my permission like last night, I will kick him out of this research project and hand him over to the Disciplinary Committee for punishment."
Hill warned.
When the students heard the words "Discipline Committee", their faces changed.
Anyway, students who make mistakes will undergo some transformation after entering the discipline committee. The specific method of transformation is a secret, but the transformed students are like they have been brainwashed and become extremely well-behaved.
They don't want to become like that.
"Got it, Mr. Hill!!"
The students responded in unison.
Hill sighed softly.
It’s not easy to teach students.
She more or less understood the hard work of her teacher.
Thinking of Wright, a complicated look emerged in Hill's eyes.
In fact, her entry into Laurel College was also related to the human swordsman.
Since she was a child, when she became Light's student, she liked her teacher very much and admired and respected him in her heart. It was because of her teacher that she embarked on the path of a swordsman and achieved what she has today.
However, six years ago, after the human sword master returned from the Dragon Kingdom, things changed.
The human swordmaster became very strange, not at all the one Hill was familiar with.
It feels like... the real human swordsman has been replaced and is no longer the original teacher.
But she had no actual evidence, everything was just speculation and could not be confirmed, and she could not see the human sword master.
Even if she said it out loud, others would think she was talking nonsense and trying to mislead people, so she could only keep it as a secret in her heart.
After being troubled for a long time, she decided to join Laurel College and become a teacher.
On the one hand, I also want to experience what it feels like to be a teacher, just like my mentor did before.
On the other hand, I also want to divert my attention in this way and busy myself with other things so that I won’t always think about these troubles.
But these were just escapes after all and did not completely eliminate the troubles in Hill's heart.
"If the human swordsman is really fake, six years have passed, so where is the real teacher?"
Hill thought silently in his heart.
"Teacher... you must still be alive, and you must still be holding on to your steadfast swordsmanship."
