Full-Time Magister: Immortality Begins with Slaying Demons
Chapter 4: The Ancient Capital
Daylight broke, the rain stopped, and reinforcements arrived.
As the entrances to the demons were destroyed one by one, the number of demons in Bo City decreased with each kill, and the entire area entered a sweeping phase.
This sweep lasted for a whole week, and even the sewers were thoroughly cleaned several times. Perhaps a few fish escaped, but they certainly wouldn't dare to appear on the streets again.
After repeated hunts, Bo City finally returned to peace.
At the same time, a precise census of the population of Bocheng was carried out.
All of the original owner's relatives were gone, and like him, they became orphans.
Although he inherited all of the original owner's memories, those memories were more like an explanatory text.
He clearly accepted everything the original owner knew, except for the original owner's feelings.
But now, looking at the seven red crosses on the list and recalling the broken corpses scattered in the living room, Zhou Sining took a deep breath and belatedly realized that the suffering in the world also varies in depth.
The person registering the young man couldn't help but offer words of comfort: "My condolences, young man."
"It's nothing, life is unpredictable." Zhou Sining rubbed his eyes, anyway, he didn't really have any feelings about it.
"Do you want to stay in Bocheng or go to the resettlement area? Many cities have resettlement areas, and big cities have good development prospects," the registrant asked.
The disaster in Botswana shocked the nation, and many cities set up temporary resettlement areas.
Some of the more famous ones include Tianjin, Shanghai, the ancient capital, the demon capital, Nanjing, Qiantang, and Jiaheyu.
They are all pretty good big cities.
"The ancient capital is a better fit. There's less competition there, and my magic-based magic is more suited to developing there."
After thinking it over, Zhou Sining finally chose the ancient capital.
In the ancient capital, there were spirits of the dead, and in the original story, students from the ancient capital's academy were also sent to kill these spirits.
It perfectly complements his "Slaying Demons and Exorcising Monsters" system, and with the Spirit Seed Qi Sha, his fire element is even more lethal to the undead.
"Okay, please fill out this form."
……
……
Zhou Sining went home, packed a few sets of clothes and documents, and waited for the authorities to transfer the money from his parents' bank account to his current account before getting into the car without any worries.
Upon arriving in the ancient capital, the scene was just as Zhou Sining had imagined, with a long outer city wall protecting it.
The only difference is that the outer city wall is not as magnificent as imagined, and there are many independent areas around the outer city wall that are protected by separate city walls.
I searched online and found out that the outer city wall was only this big when it was first built. However, as the ancient capital developed, the outer city wall could not be expanded outwards as a whole. Instead, it could only be built into separate outer areas next to the existing outer city wall.
However, the ancient capital has already begun constructing an even larger outer city wall.
It seems that the outer city wall currently under construction is the one from the original story that stood during the catastrophe of the ancient capital.
Upon arriving at the resettlement area, the location was quite good, situated on a very peripheral area within the outer walls, and only an hour's drive from the city center.
The building itself felt cheaply constructed, but Zhou Sining didn't care.
He was a minor and an orphan, so Bo Cheng directly registered him at the Ancient Capital No. 3 Middle School, so there was no need to worry about his schooling.
With three months left before enrollment, Zhou Sining diligently stayed home to cultivate during those three months.
He has 300,000 in his account, and the government also provides a monthly subsidy to 600 orphans, which is more than enough for him.
……
Three months passed in the blink of an eye. Perhaps due to the existence of the Gang Sha, his original level 2 peak fire elemental skill not only easily broke through to level 3 in these three months, but his progress was also quite fast. He even faintly touched an invisible peak.
On the day of enrollment, Zhou Sining discovered that all fifty students in the class were from Bocheng.
For a moment, the classroom was quite lively.
After all, everyone is scattered in different resettlement areas, and their focus is on adapting to the new environment, so they usually don't meet up.
"What a coincidence, we're actually deskmates." Zhou Sining looked at Mu Bai beside her.
"It's quite a coincidence that we'll be taking the college entrance exam together next year. We're actually benefiting from being younger students," Mu Bai said with a wry smile.
He looked much more haggard, and had lost all the arrogance of his former noble scion; he was even worse off than during the Bo City disaster.
"It's okay, I can always repeat a year," Zhou Sining said with a nonchalant smile.
This world also has a repeat mechanism, but each person can repeat a maximum of two times.
To enter a higher education institution, one must first participate in the special admissions process as an adult Buddhist monk.
Special admissions have much stricter requirements than the regular college entrance examination.
The two hadn't been talking for long when the homeroom teacher entered the classroom.
The square-faced homeroom teacher glanced at everyone, and without much preamble, went straight to explaining the rules to them.
"Your school registration has been transferred to the ancient capital, and you will be taking the college entrance examination in the ancient capital region. Originally, you were supposed to take a training test at the end of this year, but considering that you have already taken the test in your second year of high school, you don't need to go through the trouble. However, you still need to participate in the daily assessments."
The square-faced homeroom teacher continued, "The Ancient Capital is different from other regions. As you all know, it has been a city plagued by the undead since ancient times. Therefore, for all magic schools, especially the Ancient Capital Academy, our daily assessment method is not a battle between magicians, but a struggle against the undead!"
As soon as the homeroom teacher finished speaking, the classroom erupted in excitement.
"Wow!"
"Fighting demons again?"
"I don't want to, I just came from Bo City."
"If I had known it would be like this, I wouldn't have come here..."
The fifty people looked at each other in bewilderment. As survivors of the Red Alert, they had only just left their dilapidated hometowns and hadn't even settled down yet, only to have to continue facing demons...
"Silence!" The homeroom teacher coughed twice. "The school knows about everyone's situation, but I'm sorry, this is an ancient capital, a capital plagued by the dead. If you don't want to face the dead, you can drop out of school now."
Having said all that, it was no use having any complaints in their hearts, but the atmosphere in the classroom was noticeably gloomy.
Zhou Sining raised his hand and asked, "Teacher, do we usually cultivate at school? Are there any other ways... to obtain resources? In Bo City, each student in the top class can use a Stardust Magic Artifact for a period of time."
Wang Yan raised an eyebrow, surprised that a student would ask such a question.
"Originally, I was going to tell you this after you all got used to the ancient capital's educational model, but since some students asked, I'll just tell you now."
"The cultivation resources provided to students by the Third Middle School of the Ancient Capital are not bad, but these resources are not distributed according to your strength, but rather based on the points you gain after fighting the undead."
"Every night, No. 3 Middle School organizes students to go to the outer city wall for duty. Simply put, it involves keeping watch, observing the undead, and doing logistical work. Students who participate can earn a certain number of points. If you can kill the undead during this time, you can get even more points."
"Every month, the grade will produce a total points table, and the school will allocate corresponding cultivation resources according to the ranking of points."
"As for the Stardust Magic Artifact you mentioned, only those in the top 30 of their grade can possess it. Those ranked 1st to 10th can possess it for five days each, those ranked 11th to 20th can possess it for four days each, and those ranked 21st to 30th can possess it for three days each."
Upon hearing this, the students who had just been complaining suddenly became much quieter.
We looked at each other, disbelief on everyone's faces. We never imagined that the resources here were so abundant.
You should know that there are only two Stardust Artifacts in Bo City, but here each grade can be allocated more than two Stardust Artifacts!
"Any other questions?"
"No, thank you, teacher."
