The wrong person on the ground, the opening sword soul template

Chapter 252 (Chapter 251-2): School District, I Want to Go to School!
Liang Yue surveyed the school district; the outermost perimeter wall of this super-giant ship was at least sixty meters high.

That is a full twenty meters high, and that's just the height of the wall.

According to Liang Yue's visual estimation, its overall diameter exceeded one kilometer. As for the specific data, Liang Yue did not pay any further attention.

Liang Yue is genuinely interested in the world's greatest masterpiece of technology and knowledge.

People his age yearn for school, and any place that can help them improve their skills is a great place.

Eina continued to introduce the school district next to Liang Yue, saying, "The school district is sponsored and operated by the guild and is a mobile education platform."

The teachers working there recruit students from all over the world, as long as they are between six and eighteen years old and have a positive and motivated attitude.

With Eina's introduction, Liang Yue gained a deeper understanding of the school district.

Orario's ability to attract talent from around the world is not enough.

As the center of the world, Orario can attract talent from all over the world through a siphon effect.

This will allow Orario to acquire more talent to maintain its operations and conquer dungeons.

The world is so vast, and if a large number of talented people cannot enter Orario due to distance limitations, it would be a huge loss for Orario.

This is one reason; the second reason is the divine will of the gods themselves.

As is well known, there are two common types of divine servants in Orario.

The first type is dungeon exploration, and the second type is commercial.

Besides these two common types, there is a third type in Orario, which is the so-called Academy type.

The divine will of some deities, that is, their authority and knowledge, is related to knowledge. These multiple deities united to form a faction alliance dedicated to education.

Perhaps it is because of the nature of the gods themselves that the authority and divine will they possess are things they eternally pursue.

For example, Loki is the god of trickery and lies, so he is very lively and likes to tease people and joke with all kinds of humans.

For example, Hephaestus is the god of fire and is in charge of forging, stonemasonry, and other arts.

Therefore, she never tires of studying and forging, even after years of dedicated work; this is her lifelong pursuit.

School districts are global talent development centers, and under normal circumstances, Oralori is responsible for connecting with cities and countries around the world.

A single Lv3 adventurer is enough to defeat the horde of monsters that are destroying the city.

In the school district, most of these underage students possess Lv2 strength, and there are more than one Lv3 student among them.

The more Eina explained, the more doubts Liang Yue had, and the stronger her desire to get there became.

"So the school district operates using funds from the Orario Guild? Could you elaborate?"

Eina nodded. "In addition to the funds allocated by the guild, the school district also charges tuition fees from students."

In addition, the school district will establish locations around the world. When the district travels the world, it will recruit students sequentially according to the location of each location.

So that's how the enrollment process works.

The school district returns to Orario every three years, and otherwise travels to various locations around the world to recruit students.

Perhaps they will stay in a specific area and deal with some things.

"Because the school districts are located in various countries, the local cities and countries are very welcoming to them."

This operational model may allow the school district to gain even greater influence than Oralie!

Liang Yue nodded, "That's right, Orario is the center of this world."

To get here, one must rely on their own strength or opportunity.

The only other way to become stronger is to reach the school district's locations around the world and strive for the opportunity to enroll.

Is this Uranus and his allies' ambition? To recruit as many talented people as possible from around the world and then dedicate them to conquering dungeons and defeating the Black Dragon?
"Admission requirements have nothing to do with race, wealth or seniority; they value the will to study more."

This will to learn is a determination to achieve the goals one aspires to.

Hearing this, Liang Yue was somewhat puzzled. "If it has nothing to do with money, then how do they collect tuition fees?"

"The school district offers practical courses, such as hands-on training. In this process, a portion of the benefits students gain goes towards tuition."

Liang Yue nodded knowingly. If this was the operating model, then it was truly a conscientious one.

Looking at Eina, Liang Yue was filled with emotion.

"I never expected Miss Eina to know so much about the school district. She's so knowledgeable."

Eina looked at Liang Yue with a resentful gaze, "I'm a graduate of the school district."

That's why I was temporarily put in charge of liaison between the school district and the guild's dependent families.

Graduated from the school district?
Having been in this world for so long, Liang Yue had only watched anime about it, so she never expected that Eina was actually a student in the school district.

He didn't know much about the details of this world to begin with, and in addition, he had focused his main efforts on improving his strength over the past six months.

Therefore, he didn't deliberately try to learn about the detailed experiences of each member of Orario.

"If only Mr. Liang Yue knew people a little better."

Eina moved a little closer to Liang Yue.

"Eina, can adventurers become students in the school district?"

"that's not allowed."

Hearing these words, Liang Yue clearly felt a little regretful.

Yes, it's such a pity.

Although he already possesses the Sword Soul template and divine grace, mastering the knowledge of the school district would naturally make him even more formidable.

"By the way, besides Miss Eina, are there any other school district members in Orario now?"

Eina nodded. "Yes, for example, the Thousand Spirit Lefia, she is an outstanding graduate of the school district."

Lefia?
The girl immediately came to Liang Yue's mind; she seemed to be able to learn all the magic of the elves.

That's a really good ability.

If only I could master a vast amount of magic like Lefia.

Then his strength will undoubtedly see a leap forward.

"It's a bit hard to see clearly from this distance."

Upon hearing Eina's voice, Liang Yue led Eina closer to the school district.

He overlooked the fact that Eina's eyesight was far inferior to his own, so he lowered his flight altitude slightly again.

From this height, you can clearly see the entire outline of the school district.

Apart from those two pairs of blue wings, the school district is composed of three discs.

The topmost disc has a towering circular tower, which looks like a miniature version of the Tower of Babel that connects heaven and earth.

However, given its location within this vast school district, it is already quite grand and magnificent.

With her enhanced vision from the Adventurer Level and Sword Soul Template, Liang Yue was able to see the walls of the highest-level disc.

There were many young men and women wearing the same uniform on it.

They were a group of young people around his age, each radiating youthful energy and with faces full of collagen.

Their eyes held a clear, untainted innocence, untouched by the corruption of society.

Being a student is great.

At his current age, if he were in his home country, he would probably be studying diligently in school, graduating and entering society as a wage slave.

Compared to being an ordinary office worker, being able to travel to this world and obtain the Sword Soul template is undoubtedly an exceptionally lucky thing.

Liang Yue was talking to Eina about the school district when she suddenly sensed someone approaching.

Liang Yue looked to her side. "Who?"

"Oh, Liang Yue. It's me! I was hoping to scare you. I didn't expect your senses to be so sharp!"

Hermes' voice came from beside Liang Yue, but the other party was wearing the Hades Helmet, which made him transparent.

Therefore, it cannot be observed by sight.

In addition, there were the flying boots made by Hermes himself—the Tararia flying shoes.

Combining these two factors, Hermes was able to reach the sky where Liang Yue was.

"Hermes, what brings you here?"

Liang Yue looked at the other person with a puzzled expression. All he knew was that Hermes wanted to create a true hero in the world.

And to truly end the Black Dragon.

But all of that is too far in the past; he did indeed save the world once.

That was the incident where he killed Entreles; that was a heroic feat.

However, apart from Hestia and Hermes's family, no one else witnessed the scene.

"Of course, there are some things I need to tell you."

Seeing that Hermes had something to discuss with Liang Yue, Eina was somewhat disappointed, but she still immediately urged Liang Yue to hurry up.

"Liang Yue, since that's the case, let's go down quickly."

Liang Yue nodded and looked at Hermes, "How about this, let's go back to the guild first, and then we'll talk about it later."

He could pinpoint Hermes' exact location simply by sensing the movement of the surrounding air.

"Back to the guild?"

"Of course, we should send Miss Eina back first."

Liang Yue stretched out her hand and hoisted the invisible Hermes onto her shoulder.

Then he took Eina's hand and flew at high speed through the air on a flying sword.

During this rapid, high-speed flight, Eina fearfully clung to Liang Yue's waist, while Hermes let out an excited cheer.

"Liang Yue, you're amazing! This is so awesome! It's so awesome!"

"Shut up, Hermes!"

Liang Yue noticed something wrong with Hermes's lines. After sending Eina to the guild, Liang Yue found a secluded spot to stop.

Because of the proximity of the school district, a large number of residents from all over Orario were attracted there.

"Speak, Hermes. What is it that you insist on coming to see me?"

Liang Yue knew that Hermes wanted to see her, but she needed to hear the specifics from him.

Based on his understanding of Hermes, he knew that the other party would at least not threaten his life.

"What a coincidence! We gods are all looking forward to the arrival of the school district and hope to obtain outstanding and talented students from it."

Hermes looked at Liang Yue with a smile, "You seem to be very interested in the school district?"
Why don't we head to the school district together? The school district is a treasure trove of talent; let's get there a little earlier.

This way, you can get in touch with the most talented students. If you perform well, you might even be able to recruit new members before the other gods!

So that's what Hermes was planning.

After learning of Hermes's plan, Liang Yue nodded.

Their clan should indeed add new members, preferably geniuses equal to or surpassing Lefia.

Currently in Orario, most of the talented individuals have already found a family to belong to.

If Liang Yue wants to recruit new members, she will have to poach people from other clans.

For the entire Hestia Familia, there can never be too many people.

Of course, this refers to outstanding talents.

Hermes was even happier after seeing that Liang Yue had agreed.

"Then I'm relieved! The school district will not only take on the town's commissions to hunt monsters, but will even intervene in disputes between countries."

They might even use the guise of an internship to deliberately invite all sorts of trouble.

Therefore, the students here are basically geniuses who possess both theoretical knowledge and practical skills.

Intervening in national-level disputes?
The strength and influence of this school district are indeed outrageous. Is it because they possess the fighting power to intimidate the entire country?
Liang Yue has always had to face monsters, if what Eina said is true.

Level 2 is enough to defeat and destroy hordes of monsters that are comparable to those in rural towns, while Level 3 makes one an absolute powerhouse outside of Orario.

So those of them at level 6 must be able to do even more.

It's just a comparison to manipulating a country's various policies or serving as the country's general.

Liang Yue had absolutely no interest.

Only strength is everything!
"How lucky I am, Liang Yue! All my family members are on holiday now!"

If you don't help, I'll be in real trouble!

Liang Yue sighed, "What's going on with Asphie and the others? How could you, as a god, give them all a holiday?"

"It seems, perhaps, maybe it's because I overworked Asphie and the others."
It seems like they've been working non-stop, and the intensity is just too high.

During this trip back to Orario, I saw Asphie's expression was about to explode, so I thankfully let her take the day off.

Liang Yue looked Hermes up and down. "So everyone else took leave too?"

"That's right, Liang Yue! You really do understand me best!"

Hermes was so moved that tears streamed down his face.

Liang Yue shoved Hermes away, "You capitalist who exploits his family, a guy like you should hang himself and be hung on a street lamp."

"Is it really that bad? I shouldn't have gone that far."

After discussing the plan with Hermes again, the two finally set off.

"Liang Yue, do you want to attend school in the school district?"

Liang Yue carried Hermes on her back; both of them were equipped with invisibility helmets, while Hermes wore flying boots.

Hermes needed Liang Yue's help because the flying boots were difficult to control.

To make it easier to blend into the school district, Liang Yue wore the school district's white uniform.

This is a very fitted long coat and trousers that combine Chinese and Western styles.

The bottom of the jacket is close to the knee, like a well-tailored, elegant suit, with a thin suit coat that extends to the hem.

Liang Yue felt this was somewhat unnecessary, since his ghost hand was very conspicuous, with two corrective devices from his wrist to his upper arm and shoulder, connected by an iron chain.

Because the clothes were well-tailored, he was able to put them on.

The two then activated the invisibility function of their helmets, took to the sky, and flew towards the school district.

"Hermes, is there some kind of barrier above the school district?"

"Anyway, I didn't see it when I came last time."

Hermes' response left Liang Yue feeling helpless; she had only watched from afar before and hadn't experienced the shock she felt now.

Once he arrived directly above the school district, he had a clear view of the entire top floor layout of the school district.

Magnificent, stunning, clean, and grand in scale—that's his impression of the school district!

"Liang Yue, you still haven't answered my question. Do you want to attend school in the school district?"

"I do want to, but does that have anything to do with whether I want to or not? Doesn't the school district not accept adventurers?"

Although it's unclear why the school district doesn't want adventurers, it would be better if he could still become a student there despite being an adventurer.

"Hehe, give it a try. Maybe it'll work."

Hermes had a smile on his lips, as if he had planned this all along.

Liang Yue looked at Hermes, but because he was invisible, he couldn't see Hermes' reaction.

Considering the clothes she was wearing, where did Hermes find such a close-fitting uniform?

So, this was all part of Hermes's plan all along, right?

Thinking about this, Liang Yue was speechless. Had he already been manipulated by Hermes?
Although it's unclear what Hermes' specific plans are, we can simply deal with them as they come.

Hopefully, Hermes won't peep at female students showering in the school district and then blame it on him. The two continued to descend, and Liang Yue and Hermes landed on the ground.

"We've arrived, Hermes."

Before the two could dispel their invisibility, a red light shield appeared above the school district.

Then the sharp sound of sirens rang out, "Beep beep beep..."

Hermes appeared and looked at Liang Yue, "Oh no, Liang Yue! We've been discovered!"

Because I had previously infiltrated the school district using stealth, the school district developed a tool to break stealth.

Now it's up to each of us to see how many students we can invite before we get kicked out.

After saying that, Hermes activated the helmet's invisibility function and then flew away in a wobbly manner.

It seems that because he cannot use divine power, controlling the flying boots is quite difficult.

Liang Yue was speechless. Could this Hermes be any more unreliable?

He doesn't have flying boots or an invisibility helmet, so he should run away first.

Moreover, even if there were a stealth helmet, its effectiveness would probably be minimal.

It made him look like a voyeur.

"Why is the alarm going off?"

"They are definitely invaders from Orario! Go and capture them!"

Not good!

Liang Yue glanced at her left arm. As long as she didn't raise her left hand, the brace she was wearing on her left arm was barely noticeable.

This well-tailored school district uniform is really interesting.

"How about we try negotiating instead?"

If they really did run away, things would be even more complicated.

A group of female students in uniforms approached quickly from a distance. "Excuse me, are you alright?"

They also wore armbands, making them look like members of the disciplinary committee.

"fine."

Liang Yue shook his head, and was about to say something when he was abruptly interrupted by the other party.

"Hey classmate, did you see any intruders? They're definitely from the Hermes Familia!"
Only the omnipotent god Hermes could create flying devices!

What a despicable clan!

Hearing the students' angry words, Liang Yue silently mourned for Hermes.

It seems that these students have an extremely negative impression of the Hermes clan.

This would make it even more difficult for Hermes to recruit students for the school district.

I see. Wearing a uniform makes it easier to blend into the student crowd.

Is this Hermes' strategy?

Sorry, Hermes.

Liang Yue apologized to Hermes in her heart. His purpose was to recruit students from the school district and try to attend school here.

Since that's the case, it's better to be honest with these students.

"Everyone, I am actually Liang Yue, the leader of the Hestia Familia."

"You're Liang Yue? Damn it! Adventurers have invaded the school district! They must be arrested!"

arrest?

Liang Yue looked at the students in surprise; they had even taken out weapons.

One of the girls brandished a wooden sword and slashed at Liang Yue, shouting, "Retribution for evil!"

"I am not sinful!"

The girl's sword-drawing and teleporting slash was very fast, but Liang Yue's strength had already far surpassed her opponent's.

So Liang Yue, who was in front of the girl, only jumped back for a moment, leaving an afterimage of Liang Yue in the same spot.

The girl's slash only struck Liang Yue's afterimage. She stared at Liang Yue in shock, "What is this?"

The other girls raised their staffs and began chanting incantations.

Liang Yue sighed, "Can't you understand human language?"

"What's the point of talking to an intruder like you? Your crimes deserve to be punished!"

The opponent's attack came again, and Liang Yue's figure moved at high speed once more. This time, he took a slight side step and instantly arrived behind the girl.

"Too slow, too weak, too unreasonable."

Liang Yue glanced at the students, then lifted his foot and lightly stepped into the air, electricity flashing beneath his feet.

In the next instant, Liang Yue's figure soared dozens of meters into the air, teleporting dozens or even hundreds of meters with each step.

The girls holding staffs looked at each other in disbelief. "That's fast."

"Hmph! How arrogant! They're clearly intruders, yet they dare to swagger around in the school district like this!"

Liang Yue walked on air, leaping dozens or even hundreds of meters at high speed with each step, leaving behind an arc of electricity that flickered for a second or two in her path.

"Is the school district really this hostile to intruders? Hermes, you've really put me in a difficult position."

During the evacuation, Liang Yue noticed that most of the buildings here were made of white stone with blue roofs.

In addition to these buildings, he also saw magnificent churches that were symmetrical on both sides.

Liang Yue continued on her way, "Let's leave here first and go to other places to inquire."

Hopefully, not all students are so resistant to me, otherwise it will be troublesome.

Liang Yue landed on a stone-paved road in the school district, where there were exquisite magic stone lamps.

He walked closer and took a look. "Crafts graduation project? Does that mean the students here will also learn sculpture, magic item making, and so on?"

Liang Yue recalled the structure of the entire school district, with a towering giant tower at the center.

Then the roads spread outwards from the tower.

As for its functions, there are areas similar to an arena, as well as areas similar to parks, teaching buildings, and dormitories.

The specific functions of these buildings are probably only known to the teachers and students here.

"Is this the student city? Compared to the adventurer city, it looks much more refined and gorgeous."

"To clear up the misunderstanding, perhaps I should communicate with the higher-ups here."

With this in mind, Liang Yue decided to consult with the school district's high tower.

Then Liang Yue unleashed the Selfless Sword Domain, and a flying sword landed at his feet.

The flying sword emitted a sword-like cry, then carried Liang Yue at high speed close to the ground. He paused for a moment during the flight.

He then immediately stopped in his tracks and looked at the girl not far to his side.

To be precise, she was a half-elf among those girls. She had brown hair and emerald eyes.

Looking at this half-elf girl reminded Liang Yue of Eina.

"Aegina?"

The half-elf girl opposite was also stunned, as if she had something to say.

A piercing announcement blared, "Emergency! Emergency! Intruders have broken into the school grounds!"

"According to the investigation, there were two intruders in total. One was a god, and the other was an adventurer!"
According to the Disciplinary Committee's report, the latter will most likely be wearing a uniform!

The adventurer is a male human! His distinguishing features are a hideous, demonic hand, and black eyes and hair like a hellish demon!
To reiterate, this human possesses demonic hands infested by a demon, and has black eyes and hair like the Black Death!

What does it mean to have black eyes and black hair like the Black Death?

What is a ghost hand possessed by a demon?

Just by listening to the other party's words, Liang Yue understood that the other party was full of malice towards her.

It's ridiculous. All he did was sneak in. And he didn't do anything heinous at all.

"Ghost Hands, Black Hair?"

The group of girls opposite looked Liang Yue up and down, and then they realized that this human male did indeed have black eyes and black hair.

Not only that, he also had his left hand in his trouser pocket, and both hands were wearing white gloves.

Liang Yue felt a little awkward, so he took the initiative to talk to the girls.

"I am Liang Yue, the leader of the Hestia Familia. I am recruiting students for the school district. Are you interested?"

"Eh?"

Before the group of bewildered girls could respond, a bunch of students appeared behind Liang Yue.

A loud roar came from behind Liang Yue. "Intruder detected!"

It's really speechless. Even if he really is an intruder, is it necessary to be so confrontational?
Seeing the growing number of students surrounding the area, Liang Yue helplessly shrugged, "I'm just here to talk to your management."

"An intruder is an intruder, no matter how you explain it, you are an intruder!"

The surrounding students approached, and then three girls simultaneously swung wooden swords at Liang Yue.

"Direct violent suppression? That's a real headache."

Liang Yue moved slightly, his figure flashing in the trajectory of the three wooden swords' attacks, the opponent's attacks could only hit his afterimages.

"Haven't you realized the difference in strength between us yet?"

Because he is the intruder, retaliating would seem to confirm his intrusion.

Therefore, Liang Yue had no choice but to continue running away.

"Intruders, surrender now!"

Since these students are completely unreasonable, it seems that even if he is arrested, he will still get beaten up.

He couldn't stand this.

He was never beaten when he was weak, but now that he is so strong, he still has to suffer injustice?
How is that possible?

So Liang Yue jumped up again, leaping over a hundred meters in one bound. Then the flying sword came to his feet and carried him flying on it.

"Oh no! He's running towards the temple tower!"

"Badlban has already headed to the interception point!"

"Is that Sword Saint Liang Yue? What a disappointment!"

"This intruder is a criminal!"

Liang Yue glanced back at the ground. "Flying on a sword is indeed reliable. In this world, the ability to fly is extremely rare."

The key question is, how did I commit a crime?

His target this time was the tall tower in the center of the deck, where a deity was believed to reside.

Although he was in the wrong for trespassing in the school district, perhaps the local deities would forgive his abruptness after he revealed his identity.

Liang Yue flew into the tower with its doors wide open, followed by a group of students who had just been waiting.

He then reached the top floor of the tower at high speed and pushed open the door.

I wonder if his reputation is any good.

This is likely where the highest-ranking administrators of the entire school district reside; Liang Yue had never heard of who the district's leader was before.

Therefore, I don't know anything about the other person's personality.

Liang Yue closed the door, and what appeared before him was a male god who was even more beautiful than a woman.

She was slender and tall, with blond hair and unusually fair skin.

He was wearing a robe that exposed his right shoulder, and for some reason, he kept his eyes closed.

However, Liang Yue had a feeling that the other party was watching her.

The handsome man smiled at Liang Yue, expressing his goodwill towards her.

Liang Yue nodded slightly to the other party, "Hello, my name is Liang Yue, and I come from the Hestia Familia."

Although the other person did not open their eyes, Liang Yue felt that the other person could see her every move.

Perhaps this is an ability similar to the Asura's Mind's Eye.

“I know you, Liang Yue. You have a special soul. It’s a pleasure to meet you.”

How could someone see his soul directly?
Is this the other party's authority?

"Let's hide it for a bit, Liang Yue."

Liang Yue nodded; he too sensed someone approaching.

So Liang Yue leaped into the air, her back pressed directly against the ceiling near the door.

Because the air and space in front of her were frozen by the sword energy for a long time, Liang Yue's figure would not fall down at all.

The room was over three meters high, almost four meters, and he was in a blind spot for most people.

The door opened, and a girl wearing an armband walked in.

"God Baldr, is there a black-haired human allowed to enter here?"

"What happened, Yarisa?"

Yarisa stood upright. "An intruder has arrived, and we are apprehending him."

These scoundrels are truly despicable! And the criminal is none other than Liang Yue, the world-renowned swordsman!

Badr nodded slightly. "I see."

"We will definitely arrest him!"

After saying that, Yarisa quickly left the room and closed the door.

Liang Yue gently descended from the ceiling, her face somewhat annoyed. She had only trespassed into the school district, yet she was being labeled a criminal.

I didn't steal, rob, or kill anyone, yet this guy is making it sound so serious.

"God Baldr, thank you very much for your help."

"These are all minor matters, Liang Yue, you are the new hope of Orario."

"What a coincidence! I was just talking to Hermes about you."

"Hermes?"

Liang Yue used his senses to collect information such as sound, airflow, and temperature.

He stepped on the ground, and through the vibration, he discovered that there was a human structure beneath the floor.

Is someone under the floor?

"Oh, you found out!"

The floor of the room began to deform, and Hermes emerged from beneath it.

"Turns out there's a hidden room here, it's quite safe."

The shielding of this dark room is quite advanced; it requires him to actively sense it to detect it.

"Hermes just discussed some things with me, and I'd like to hear your thoughts."

Liang Yue, would you like to attend school in the school district?

"Of course, as the price for coming to school, you'll have to join the problem children's class and help me manage the troubled students there."

In Norse mythology, Baldr is the god of light, as well as the god of spring and joy.

Just like in Norse mythology, he also has the world's largest ship in this world.
