Full-Time Magister: Throne of Dimensions

Chapter 129 Green Brother Starts Again

"Hmm, I feel a little better," Jiang Shaoxu murmured, then prepared to leave, but at that moment Green Brother blocked his way.

"Um... could you stay for a moment? I have something I want to show you." Green hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to speak up.

"What is it?"

"The location of a treasure, the location of totem power," Green Brother said through gritted teeth.

"The power of totems." Jiang Shaoxu narrowed his eyes. He was very familiar with this name; his brother's notes contained all sorts of totem-related words.

But... as far as Jiang Shaoxu knew, very few people knew about totems; even a student from the ancient capital knew about them?

Or is this student actually quite extraordinary?

"Why did you come to me?" Jiang Shaoxu asked. He had never met this person before, yet he wanted Jiang Shaoxu's help. It was hard to believe that he was targeting her.

It wasn't narcissism, but Jiang Shaoxu knew that she was very beautiful in the eyes of outsiders, and that her temperament easily attracted the opposite sex. It was hard for Jiang Shaoxu not to think about other things and suspect that this person had ulterior motives.

"Hehe." Green Brother chuckled dryly. He knew his behavior was strange, and it was normal for him to be wary.

He thought for a moment and said, "Actually, it's a feeling. I feel that you are very powerful. Although there is no reason, my intuition is rarely wrong. Before, Su Ming and I, along with a few other people, went to Helan Mountain. Although we didn't get anything, the changes in Helan Mountain made me firmly believe that I was on the right track and that the power of the totem definitely exists."

"Yes, thank you for your trust. But I just heard a name, Su Ming. Did he go to Helan Mountain with you?" Jiang Shaoxu asked, her heart pounding with excitement, and she clenched her fists tightly.

"Yes." Green Brother nodded, though he didn't know why she asked that.

"Three years ago?"

"Yeah, but we came back without getting anything," Green Brother continued.

"Where did Su Ming go after he came back?" Jiang Shaoxu asked.

He didn't come back.

"?"

"Literally, Su Ming didn't come back. Only a few of us returned. He went back to Helan Mountain halfway through, but we haven't heard back any news. We don't know if he's dead or alive," Green Brother said honestly.

He didn't notice that Jiang Shaoxu's expression had changed a bit, and then asked, "How about it? Do you want to come with me to find the power of totems? The time at Helan Mountain was just an accident. We can definitely find it this time. The power of totems is a treasure that can improve our magic cultivation. If we find it, we will definitely make a fortune."

Jiang Shaoxu didn't reply, and Brother Lü also stopped talking. He vaguely sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere, so he didn't continue.

As expected, Jiang Shaoxu did not answer him and left the place dejectedly.

This left Green Bro somewhat bewildered, not understanding what had happened.

He glanced at Qin Zizhen lying on the ground, shook his head, and went to the cafeteria for a meal.

Halfway there, Green Brother suddenly realized something.

If the name Su Ming caused her to lose her mind, then it could only be because of Su Ming. Moreover, Su Ming hasn't returned for three years. Green Brother patted his head, thinking that researching for so long would damage his brain, which was not advisable.

In the past, he would have realized it immediately, but now it took him so long to understand. He felt that he needed to rest for a while, otherwise it would affect the progress of his research.

And... there's no one there, no one went with him, sigh.

……

Jiang Shaoxu walked along the road, somewhat lost and dejected. After all, she had come to find Su Ming, but all she received was the news that Su Ming had been missing for three years.

If it were the Helan Mountain before, it wouldn't be so bad, as that place wasn't considered dangerous. But the Helan Mountain is different now. Starting just three years ago, the Helan Mountain became a forbidden area, extremely dangerous. Even high-level mages don't dare to easily lead teams to the Helan Mountain. For a mid-level mage like him to stay there for three years would be extremely dangerous.

To put it pessimistically, Su Ming is already dead, otherwise why hasn't he come out in three years?

Is it that you don't want to?

Is he kind?

No, that's not it. It's because Su Ming is already dead that he can't get out.

Jiang Shaoxu couldn't believe it, didn't want to believe it, but had no choice but to believe it.

Three years is too long; it's practically a death sentence.

She sat on a bench with her knees bent and her head buried in them, not even noticing her phone ringing.

She remained seated until someone walked up to her.

"Xiao Xu, let's go. The intelligence has been gathered." Jiang Shaotian jumped down from the sky and landed steadily without even stirring up a speck of dust.

He was puzzled. How did the ancient capital's academy become like this after just one visit?

Sure enough, the generation gap between him and young people is too large.

"Xiao Xu?" Jiang Shaotian called out softly.

Jiang Shaoxu suddenly looked up, startling him. Her eyes were red and there were tear stains, indicating that she had been crying.

Jiang Shaotian was a little annoyed and began to analyze the situation. If Jiang Shaoxu had been bullied, then he would have to fight back.

According to Jiang Shaotian's understanding, Jiang Shaoxu must have been bullied, otherwise she wouldn't have shed tears.

"Xiao Xu..."

"Let's go." Jiang Shaotian was interrupted before he could ask anything, which made him a little embarrassed. Jiang Shaoxu had already stood up and was looking at him strangely.

"Come on, what are you standing there for?" Jiang Shaoxu's voice was cold, which made Jiang Shaotian, who was about to ask a question, swallow his words and not say them.

The two quickly left the Ancient Capital Academy. Jiang Shaotian followed Jiang Shaoxu, who moved very fast, as if she were fleeing the academy.

Jiang Shaotian decided that it would be better to go and ask Grandpa Ding what had happened.

After all, he doesn't understand girls' thoughts at all, otherwise he wouldn't still be single.

Jiang Shaotian shrugged. Although his elders kept urging him, he didn't take it seriously and felt there was no need to find a girlfriend. Of the dozen or so children in three generations of the Jiang family, Jiang Shaoxu was the only girl; the rest were all boys.

When it comes to carrying on the family line, it's not his place yet, so there's no need to worry about the Chiang family line dying out.

"What intelligence did you obtain?" Jiang Shaoxu asked.

"It hasn't been made public yet; it was Han Ji who investigated it himself."

"Just say it, stop beating around the bush," Jiang Shaoxu interrupted him impatiently.

"Xiao Xu, you need to know where this information comes from. Han Ji wasn't given to him by someone else. We need to remember that." Jiang Shaotian instructed, "It is said that traces of the Black Vatican were found near that ancient tomb outside the ancient capital. But it's just the Black Vatican. We haven't found anyone as important as Wu Ku. But he is definitely on the edge of the ancient capital, or even possibly inside the ancient capital."

"We don't need to handle the situation inside the ancient capital; Han Ji will take care of everything. We also don't need to come to the edge of the city; Lu Huan can take action. Our goal is to go into the ancient tomb. People from the Black Vatican have been inside, and we need to investigate thoroughly."
