Besides, when she and her mother first came to Twilight Town, they were here for tourism!
Since it is a trip, how can you not do some preparations about the destination in advance and understand the basic situation?
Therefore, she was very clear about how important the name "Romon" was in the Imperial National University and even in the entire Twilight City.
Roman, the president of the Imperial National University, has served in the school for more than ten years. He has outstanding abilities and a very high reputation. It is rumored that he has a friendship with the current emperor of the empire, Octavius VIII, and is an early friend of His Majesty the Emperor.
Moreover, in addition to his status and reputation, Romon himself is also a great wizard at the level of a smelting master. Looking at the entire vast empire, there are no more than twenty strong people at a similar level.
As for the specific areas in which he excelled, Bernice really didn't know because there was no direct mention in the public information.
Of course, this is normal. For an official wizard affiliated with the imperial government and the royal family, his own field should not be publicized.
The only ones who are not at all shy about exposing their own fields are probably the "church mages" who have converted to the church, and those low-level mages who are so weak that there is not much point in keeping their fields secret.
Now it seems... if the old man dressed as a cleaner is really Principal Luo Meng...
So, he is a metallurgist in the field of "Chaos"? !
Another powerful person who is at the same level as His Highness the Blood Lord appeared before him? !
I... I actually met a top-notch expert at the Jiyuan realm for two consecutive days...
Bernice suddenly felt numb, as if she was dreaming and her mind fell into a trance and confusion for a short period of time.
When she first started wandering around the campus, she had considered asking Roman for help.
But this powerful and high-ranking principal...his whereabouts are so mysterious!
He has no office of his own, no specific contact information, and even on the school's leadership introduction list, there is no photo or resume overview of him.
Most of the teachers and students in the Imperial National University have never seen him!
One can't help but wonder whether this principal who only exists in rumors really exists. The strong mysterious aura around this person has also led students to make up many strange urban legends based on him.
It can be said that he was like a dragon that was hard to find. For Bernice at that time, finding him... was basically impossible.
"Little guy, you've been on campus for almost a month. I've been keeping an eye on you for a long time."
Principal Romon looked at Bernice, who was in a daze, with a smile on his face, and said in a mellow and steady voice:
"I wanted to observe for a while longer... but since we have this opportunity to meet, let's move up the relevant agenda."
Bernice immediately looked embarrassed, a little embarrassed, but also a little expectant, she said softly:
"Will you send me... to the human government...?"
Her emotions at this moment were quite complicated.
As a noble and powerful vampire, she may be a little arrogant when facing ordinary humans, but she still trusts the official forces of the human world.
Therefore, deep down in her heart, she believed that if she could safely and successfully inform official organizations of her situation and troubles, she would most likely be able to receive adequate help.
With the support of the official forces of the human world, it will not be so difficult to find my mother and return to my hometown.
In other words, if Principal Luo Meng, a top-notch expert who has reached the level of "Light Smelter", is willing to send herself to the human government, then she will naturally be happy to cooperate.
After all, the reason why she was hiding and wandering around, not daring to show up, let alone go to the Super Management Bureau, the Municipal Government, or the Imperial Palace for help...
I'm just afraid of being caught by those bad guys who are looking for me and definitely have bad intentions.
——As long as those people are not stupid, they will definitely arrange personnel to wait closely on the roads leading to the Super Management Bureau, the City Government, and the Imperial Palace, waiting for themselves to fall into the trap!
But if there is a metallurgist to "escort" you, there will be no such worries.
No matter how brave those bad guys are...it's impossible for them to rob people under the nose of a metallurgist!
But while she was excited and looking forward to it, she also felt a little embarrassed.
Because of 1005... that mysterious high-level mage from the "Earth" realm...
She could never understand the thoughts of this beautiful and adorable little girl.
I have no idea why she goes through so many twists and turns, as if she wants to help me, but at the same time she is unwilling to do anything, as if she is deliberately making things difficult for me.
If you really want to help me, there's no need to go through so much trouble! Can't you just send me to the "Twilight Palace"?
All these doubts made her unable to figure out the other party's intentions, and cast a thick fog over this mysterious, beautiful and powerful black-haired girl.
So, she was still a little wary of Qi Ji.
She knew that the black-haired wizard who called himself 105 must be somewhere at this moment, keeping an eye on her through some means.
The other party must also be aware of his current situation and knows that as long as he asks Principal Luo Meng for help, he will be able to get out of the predicament directly.
As a result, she is no longer "needed" and has no more reason to complete the so-called "task" or accumulate so-called "merits".
Bernice was a little worried... If she really asked Principal Roman for help, would 105... be unhappy? Would he take any measures...
Actions that you don't want to see.
"You seem to be troubled by something?"
Looking at Bernice's confused and hesitant face, Principal Luo Meng showed no impatience at all. He just shook his head kindly.
"For now, I don't care about your experience, your background, or your purpose. As long as you don't harm the students and faculty of this school, I won't interfere with your... um, your 'survival'."
Bernice raised her head, pursed her pink lips, and said carefully:
"Then, then can you...wait for me?"
This was probably beyond Luo Meng's expectations. He asked with some surprise:
"What are you waiting for?"
"Wait for the answer to my first question," Bernice tapped her chin with her index finger, "Which is whether or not you will send me to the human government... I think, I want to ask you to wait for a while before answering it."
"Of course, that's no problem."
Luo Meng said as he glanced at the man under his feet:
"As for this guy... I allow you to take him away, but he wants to hurt my students in my school after all. I can't just sit back and watch. So, you must give me the final right to dispose of him."
He raised his head and looked at the sky. Seeing the sun gradually peeking out from the clouds, he said slowly:
"When you have made up your mind, bring this guy here, to the same location as now. I will come to you and give you a response."
"OK, alright……"
Bernice agreed immediately, and then took advantage of her strength to recover a little and raised her hands in the air.
Two balls of emerald green light immediately rose from the ground, wrapped around her and the unconscious man, and then quickly shrank.
Under Principal Luo Meng's deep gaze, two green shadows floating on the ground quickly fled away, one after the other, and disappeared in the library.
"All right……"
He sighed softly and looked deeply at Donna, who stood up tremblingly and looked confused:
"Kid, I'm very sorry for what happened. Maybe we should talk..."
On the other side, Bernice led the man who attacked Donna across half of the campus and came to the edge of the grove.
Two green shadows floating on the ground suddenly expanded and "grew" into two figures, which were Bernice and the man.
As a "budding" vampire, performing such a long-distance "Escape into the Earth" took a lot of energy from her, causing her to break out in cold sweats and look a little pale.
After resting for a few minutes to catch her breath, she grabbed the corner of the man's clothes with one hand and dragged him slowly into the woods with some difficulty.
After walking for a few minutes, the surrounding environment suddenly became imperceptible and confused, and then the mossy gray rock wall of the "back mountain" appeared at the end of the field of vision.
Soon she found the tall, odd-looking tree house and approached its rough exterior made of branches and vines.
"Yao Lingwu... Sir, I, I brought him back..."
Bernice knocked on the wall somewhat unsurely and took a few steps back.
"Om-"
No one responded, but an illusory door opened on the wall in front of him, revealing a dreamy wave of light.
Without saying a word, Bernice dragged the man through the ripples into the tree house and saw Qi Ji sitting in a rocking chair without a hood on.
"It's good to be back."
Qi Ji glanced at her lightly and nodded as if hinting at something else.
Throwing the man aside casually, Bernice swung her numb arms and looked at the beautiful girl sitting leisurely in the rocking chair. Her lips moved as if she wanted to say something.
But after hesitating for a few seconds, she still didn't say anything, but walked silently towards her own bedroom.
——Vampires are species that hide during the day and come out at night. It is just past noon now, and according to her schedule, it should be time for her to sleep.
Qi Ji looked at Bernice's worried back quietly, his dark brown eyes flickering, and he said suddenly:
"Do you think that I didn't send you to the Super Management Bureau, or the Imperial Palace, or the City Government... just to watch you mess around?"
Chapter 255: The “New World” Sect
Bernice paused immediately, her hand on the door handle motionless.
She stood there for a long time, staring at the door panel covered with plant patterns. Suddenly, she seemed to be vaguely aware of something and her shoulders shook slightly.
"You, you mean..."
She whispered with some fear in her tone:
"The human government...maybe there are problems too?"
"There is no evidence, just some personal experience and irresponsible speculation."
Qi Ji sat in the rocking chair, rocking slightly, his eyes turned forward, not looking at Bernice anymore:
"An organized and large-scale force in a country's capital city attempted to kidnap foreign tourists... Such a group, whether illegal or not, do you think they have no connections with the authorities?"
Bernice remained silent, her body frozen in front of the door.
"I'll take a nap..."
After an unknown amount of time, she suddenly let out a long breath, turned the handle, pushed open the door and walked in.
Then, there was no more sound.
"Tsk, this guy..."
Qi Ji shook his head imperceptibly with a hint of helplessness, and then turned his gaze to the killer who was lying unconscious against the wall.
"Renormalization movement..."
She chewed on the term carefully.
This name belongs to one of the nine major churches.
The main god worshipped is Fusa, the "god of disaster and destruction" and "goddess of disaster" who is in charge of the fields of "sulfur", "volcanoes", "natural disasters", "madness" and "chaos".
Although the description of this church makes it seem like a cult, it is indeed a legitimate church of God.
Although the church's doctrine claims that successive natural disasters and catastrophes will eventually destroy the world, and is suspected of promoting fear, this is almost a common feature of all religious organizations, and is understandable considering the context of the times.
The believers and clergy under the Reorganization Movement are often dedicated to studying the occurrence patterns and breeding grounds of various natural and man-made disasters, and like to issue various prophecies and warnings.
Although most of them are not very accurate, their diligent attempts have enabled them to gain considerable achievements in the fields of geology, sociology and spiritualism.
All in all, they are a relatively decent group of guys, otherwise they would not be able to be included in the nine major churches and would be labeled as a cult organization.
But the problem is, such a large-scale, large-scale, and upright organization...
How could someone do such a thing as sending someone to assassinate an ordinary female student?
"You'll have to ask him himself."
Qi Ji laughed a few times, then directly activated the "spiritual communication" to communicate with the killer's spirit.
Yes, this guy is still alive, but she wants to channel the spirits of the living!
Compared to using mental spells to collect their memories, channeling is more reliable and safer.
And if the object of communication is still alive, there will be basically no irreversible damage to his spirit, so there is no need to worry about killing him and thus being unable to report to Principal Roman.
As the holy emblem of "Ark of Progress" appeared on Qi Ji's right palm, a light blue light shone from the man's charred body.
Then the light rose rapidly, outlining a vague translucent outline in the air.
It was a thin, mean-looking, pale-skinned man, which was the original appearance of the burnt man.
The shadow was suspended about half a meter above the ground with a dull expression, its eyes empty and lifeless.
