Chapter 754: Start of the New Semester
“I’m back. It shouldn't be too late, right? I encountered some things when I went back.”
At this moment, I also didn't care about the trouble of teleporting back from the experimental area.
After resolving the permission issue, I directly went up to meet everyone.
“Ah... Did Little Han finally come back? I feel like I'm about to starve to death...”
“Let’s go, let’s go. Let's go to the dining area.”
The dining area was a small area set aside from the laboratory side.
Because it was convenient for “one-click cleaning,” it was treated as the dining area by all of us.
After distributing the takeout I brought over, everyone also took advantage of this rare leisure time to chat.
However, the topic most people talked about first was still what they were doing at this moment.
That was the issue of the Magic Power Source upper limit of the Witch-transformation Reconstruction Metamorphic Spell resonance.
For most of the people sitting here, vacations or the start of school were actually about the same to them.
Basically, they were all following their own mentors to learn knowledge, or cooperating with friends, as well as researching their own projects, making full preparations for advancing to Transcendent.
Therefore, many of them didn't even know that school was about to start.
Upon hearing that school was starting soon, they all felt that time passed so quickly.
Regarding advancing to Transcendent, not everyone among them was confident in this matter.
Quite a few people actually still held the idea of finishing their studies normally first and then slowly accumulating.
Another year had passed, which meant that many of the people here were close to finishing their studies.
After all, in the Witch Academy, students who achieved the accomplishment of graduating during their time at school were the geniuses among geniuses.
In fact, quite a few students in the Witch Academy who advanced to Transcendent Witches did so after finishing their studies.
After all... for a person, ten years of time in school was long if called long, and short if called short.
The colorful and flashy aspects of the Transcendent world always attracted the young people in their prime to squander their youth.
Perhaps by the time a person suddenly realized it, half of the ten years had already passed.
Furthermore, within those ten years, there were still three years of the lower-grade stage.
This was not only the stage for building a foundation but also the stage for a person to choose their own life path.
From being lost to being determined, the time each person spent was different.
From having clear goals to achieving something, this was not something that could be done just by accumulating seniority.
After all, advancing to Transcendent depended entirely on one's own ability, not on seniority.
And the average person had to spend even longer for another reason, which was to overcome the Earth Vein Chains.
The Earth Vein Chains could only be severed after advancing to Transcendent.
Therefore, during the period of advancing to Transcendent, the influence brought by the chains was present in all aspects: one's family, the relatives one knew, one's friends, the familiar junior girls, or... the love and significant other one cherished...
These were all very normal relationships, but they would turn into the most lethal chains at the most critical moment, crushing everyone who tried to break away from the world cycle from a psychological level, preventing them from becoming a true... “individual.”
Only by first defeating it can one sever it; this was the disgusting part about the Earth Vein Chains.
And to defeat them, there was another shortcut, which was to thoroughly recognize it.
When a person recognized that severing the Earth Vein Chains did not equal completely cutting off these relationships, then the influence brought by the Earth Vein Chains would decrease.
People only needed to suppress their own instinctive fear with subjective consciousness to be enough to ignore the chains and advance to Transcendent.
Therefore... the girls sitting here were actually people who very clearly knew the Earth Vein Chains.
They analyzed the causes of the chains, understood the principles of the chains, and some even minored in psychology to constantly explain the why.
Actually, severing the Earth Vein Chains did not require abandoning feelings and cutting off love to become a cold-blooded person, but no one could manage to separate these two.
Therefore, people who advanced to Transcendent from a Transcendent body basically all caught a bit of the habit of sealing their hearts and locking away love.
Perhaps they became speechless, perhaps they became cold, but in short... their faces would become full of stories.
“By the way, Little Han, recently I saw someone on the Academy Network saying that someone witnessed your welcoming avatar committing acts of slaughtering newcomers.”
At this time, Yi Rui mentioned this matter to me from the side.
As Yi Rui said this, several other girls who frequently followed the Academy Network also hurriedly chimed in.
“Right, right, I saw it too. It was spreading quite fiercely a while ago, and there was even picture evidence!”
“But it seems it was suppressed on the Academy Network by the people from Big Sis Little Han’s support group.”
“I really don't understand what those people's mindsets are like. Are they that malicious toward Big Sis Little Han? They even said... the academy is shielding Big Sis Little Han and not doing anything about the inhumane massacre of newcomers.”
The more everyone talked, the more intense the debate became, but no matter what, they all seemed to be on my side.
Whether it was blind trust or some other reason... I actually felt quite happy.
But what I wanted to say was that those things spreading on the Academy Network were not considered fake.
“Eh? You all believe that I didn't take action?”
I also took advantage of the gap to raise my question.
“Definitely! We've been with you for so long, Big Sis Little Han; we definitely know what kind of person you are.”
“Yeah letting these people smear you is truly awful. It feels like those people on the Academy Network responsible for deleting posts and muting are just eating for nothing, right?”
“Don't be so hostile. What if I say the Academy Network didn't say it wrong, and I indeed laid hands on the newcomers?”
Once I said this, the voices here immediately died down, and some were even somewhat in disbelief!
“Alright... I won't tease you anymore. The people were indeed killed by me, but those people were not simple newcomers, but players. You shouldn't have forgotten what the concept of a player is, right? Players entered the Witch Academy wearing the faces of newcomers, so naturally, I had to thoroughly exterminate them.”
“Oh! I knew Big Sis Little Han was definitely being framed!”
“Exactly, why should Big Sis Little Han’s actions need to be explained to others? I apologize for my moment of hesitation just now!”
“If you’re apologizing, remember to show the lower part of your breasts! You have no sincerity!”
A girl on the side put down her food box, and her restless little hand went around behind her, suddenly lifting!
“None of your business, Big Sis Little Han is someone with a family!”
The person who was lifted up immediately turned red, one hand pulling her clothes while the other directly gave the culprit a knock on the head.
There was no need to think the strike was harsh; everyone was someone who had mastered Transcendent power.
This level of force was indeed considered to be at the level of playing around.
However, amidst the jokes, many people also realized a problem.
That was the existence of players... actually becoming the new batch of newcomers entering the Witch Academy!
What kind of existence players were, many people in the Transcendent Academy still knew a bit.
Invaders from beyond the world, occupying the bodies of people in our world, and acting recklessly in this world.
Although their form of power was very peculiar, their strength was not very great.
Only that time at the Modu hotel caused a relatively serious influence; other times, even if they caused explosions, it was to an extent that Transcendent methods could easily reach.
To a certain extent, these players who mastered power and those students in the Witch Academy who only knew how to cast spells could actually be considered evenly matched opponents.
However... in the end, they also reached the conclusion that players were not worth worrying about on this topic.
Leaving aside that the traces of players were becoming fewer and fewer recently, the main thing was one thing they were very clear about, which was that this kind of “world invasion” permitted by the mentors made those players look like a joke from the very beginning.
In other words, this matter had the ultimate fallback from the mentors.
Although it was a guess, they felt it was probably the case, or the mentors wanted to use these players to do certain things.
But all of this didn't have much to do with them; only those people jumping around outside were the group being influenced.
Actually, I wasn't very interested in the topic of players either; as the saying goes, the more one knows, the less interested one is in such shallow topics.
Therefore, their topic quickly shifted back to the upcoming start of school and welcoming newcomers.
After all, it was a grand event once a year.
Welcoming the brand-new first-year girls into the school was indeed great, and this was also the perfect moment for the senior girls to change their affections or look for new flames!
To give the newcomers a taste of the shock belonging to the Witch Academy, letting them clearly know that in the Witch Academy, even if everyone is a girl, you still have to remain attentive.
Quite a few girls very naively lost their virginity on the first day of entering the Witch Academy; this was not a joke.
You simply don't know how thirsty those senior girls are in a school full of girls, and how wildly they play in private.
But here what they were actually chatting about was the topics related to club recruitment during the newcomer entrance ceremony.
They belonged to one club.
However, they rarely conducted recruitment directly toward newcomers; this club of theirs all followed an elite route.
Although they wouldn't recruit externally, as one of the few grand events of the Witch Academy, many girls actually still really wanted to join in the fun.
And usually, they would also take advantage of this time to go to the newcomer market to set up stalls and earn some extra money.
Not every one of them was a little rich woman.
Although the funds for gathering together based on interest in the club were provided by the little rich women in the club, each person didn't only have the life of the club; they also had their own projects to research.
Furthermore, if someone also mastered some relatively expensive techniques as their side profession, or if their project required a large amount of precious experimental materials for continuous consumption, no amount of money would be enough to spend.
For the senior girls, setting up a stall had another purpose, which was to clear out some of the experimental products or byproducts they had produced during this time.
After all, it would be a bit too pitiful to throw them all away as garbage; it was better to sell them to people who needed them, and they could even recoup some costs for themselves.
Of course, more than that, it was a chance to give themselves an opportunity to relax and make contact with the outside world.
Humans are ultimately social creatures; in places with many people and lively spots, they will instinctively attract more people to join in the fun.
At least that was what they thought.
“Since we can't complete the theoretical Magic Power Source quantity upper limit of the Witch-transformation Reconstruction Metamorphic Spell before school starts, then we won't be in a hurry for now, right?”
“Of course there's no need to hurry. I have never set a specific time or deadline for this experimental project, yet each of you is so busy that you've treated the laboratory as your own home.”
I also opportunely responded to everyone's expectations and spoke with a smile.
“Then let's temporarily take a holiday during those few days of the start of school. How about it, Little Han?”
Yi Rui also spoke up and suggested.
“After all, occasionally letting one’s brain relax might bring different inspiration.”
“I don't have any problem with that. Do you have any arrangements?”
“Of course we do. Don't you go appear in the laboratory and backstab us at that time, Little Han.”
“Rest assured, rest assured I won't this time.”
I said with a smile.
Even if I really had nothing to do and ran to the laboratory and was discovered by someone, then no one should say anything about the other.
But I did indeed need to give myself a good holiday.
It was just a bit of a pity that the Expansion Realm had also almost closed; otherwise, the way the Expansion Realm had just started developing would have been very suitable for Big Sis Bai and me to go and have a tour.
***
Time passed quickly.
In the blink of an eye, the day for the start of the new semester arrived.
On this day, the Witch Academy, just like at this time last year, launched the most grand welcoming ceremony for the newcomers.
However, the Earth Vein projection technology this time had been swapped for another kind of technique.
The Myriad Connection Main Network Tree's root network operating system.
Although only one vacation had passed, that Myriad Connection Main Network Tree within the Witch Academy had already thrived in the hands of numerous witches, changing every day.
Furthermore, within one vacation, it had already grown to be extremely huge, becoming an existence just like a landmark within the Witch Academy.
Its root network also spread across the main roads of the Witch Academy.
Perhaps it wouldn't be long before it was very likely the Witch Academy would introduce Plant Technology to renovate the buildings of the Witch Academy.
After all, alchemical items driven by Magic Power energy were ultimately not very easy to popularize, and the consumption of Magic Power was not very friendly to the newcomers.
What’s more, the root network of the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree could also be well-integrated with the greenery design within the academy.
Perhaps before long, if a newcomer got lost in the Witch Academy, they could simply see a blade of grass by the roadside and connect to the root network to obtain route information.
Such a scene was the fantasy posture a Transcendent academy transcending general society should have.
And this also didn't require overusing the Earth Vein like the Earth Vein Operating System and the Academy Network, which would cause Earth Vein Stagnation for a period of time afterward.
Whereas the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree only needed to transform Earth Vein energy into Earth Energy itself, and its root network could spread very well.
At most... it would just mean creating another backup station for Earth Energy conversion.
It could be said that the error tolerance was extremely high.
During the period of newcomer entrance.
I strolled through the market temporarily set up for the start of the newcomer semester.
Although it was said to be the start of the newcomer semester, this place was not purely prepared for the newcomers.
After all, the newcomers had just arrived at the Transcendent academy and understood nothing, having at most general currency on them, so it was difficult for them to become consumers here.
Therefore, the main force here was primarily the senior girls from previous years.
So every time at this moment, it was extremely lively here, and the level of liveliness was only second to that of the club recruitment area.
After all, the clubs in the Witch Academy were of all sorts.
To recruit, many clubs would try every possible way to attract attention; some displayed their talents, while others distributed some interesting little things.
And the most eye-catching were groups like the alchemy clubs.
Those very miraculous little alchemical toys indeed caught people's eyes.
Of course, on this stretch of the market, the alchemy stalls were also places that drew a lot of attention.
Because this was often a place where some alchemists disposed of those potions and alchemical items at cost, and one might even find a bargain or something.
I also passed by these stalls one by one.
After all, I wasn't interested in alchemical items or some potions.
Instead, I preferred strolling randomly here.
Compared to buying things, I was more looking forward to happening upon people I knew here and seeing what they were doing.
After all, this matter itself was also very interesting, wasn't it?
