Me and my fantasy world

boom!

The golden light shattered.

Lingyi stared at the stone pillar in front of him with a dull and empty look in his eyes.

On both sides of the stone pillar, two emcees looked at Lingyi in confusion, followed Lingyi's line of sight to look at the stone pillar, and looked it up and down, but did not find anything wrong.

"You..." Under Lingyi, someone's collar was clutched in his hand. The person's voice was a little hoarse and he had difficulty breathing.

"Lingyi, forget it. I'm fine." Leo stood behind Lingyi and put a hand on Lingyi's shoulder, bringing Lingyi back to his senses.

"Huh? What happened?" Lingyi said, his eyes shining again. He felt a heaviness in his palms. He looked down and found that Zhengshi was grabbed by the neck and fell on the stairs.

Lingyi was a little confused and loosened the collar of the envoy. The envoy quickly turned around, climbed up the stairs in a panic, and fled to the stone pillar.

Inside the huge earth wall behind him, a group of children had not yet escaped, but were staring at him blankly.

Alice and Leo did not stay in the air, but appeared behind him naturally.

The holes that the envoy had smashed on the steps also disappeared, and were replaced by intact steps, as if time had gone back to the moment when Zero-One grabbed the envoy.

"Xiaoyi? What's wrong with you?" Alice walked to Lingyi's side worriedly and looked at Lingyi.

"No, nothing, nothing." Ling Yi smiled a little bit stubbornly, or a little flustered, and suddenly recalled what the woman in black robe had just said.

……

"Are you sure you want to leave?"

"What's wrong? Is there any problem?"

"That's not a problem, but it may make you feel a little uncomfortable."

"why?"

"This barrier is not something that ordinary people can open. In your words, it can be said to be a divine barrier. Once it is lifted, your perception of you will be somewhat distorted."

"Bias? What do you mean?"

"I can't really say for sure, but I just learned a little bit by accident."

"What? You are just a half-baked immortal..."

"Well, I'll let you see the power of being praised as a 'god'. It's pretty good too."

……

"Time... has gone backwards?" Lingyi looked at his palm in disbelief, then touched his forehead. There was nothing unusual, no golden light, and there was no response to the mark on Lingyi's forehead in the hall. Everything was the same as before.

"What is that? What is backflow?" Leo asked puzzledly.

"Oh, nothing, nothing, I just met a strange auntie suddenly." Lingyi said, put down his palm, and looked back at the children in the stone wall, "Maybe for them, this ability is really like a "god"... No, for me and the world, it's the same, it really didn't lie to me."

"Xiaoyi, what are you mumbling about?" Alice asked puzzledly.

"That's right. You're not stupid, are you?" Leo said, stretching out his hand to touch Lingyi's forehead.

Lingyi quickly slapped away Leo's outstretched hand: "It's okay, why are you so excited? You haven't done anything serious yet." Lingyi smiled and turned around to look at the stone pillar.

Leo and Alice also followed Lingyi's gaze towards the stone pillar and immediately understood: "Oh, go ahead, hurry up." Leo smiled and patted Lingyi's shoulder.

"Come on, Xiaoyi, you can do it." Alice cheered for Lingyi.

Lingyi nodded and looked at the envoy who was guarding the stone pillar on the stage: "Sir envoy, the ceremony has been going on for a long time, but the real business has not been done yet, why not start?"

"What do you want to do!" he asked vigilantly.

"I didn't plan on doing anything. I just wanted to awaken the magic power in my body and level up at the same time." Lingyi smiled meaningfully.

"Open the level? Hahaha, fine, fine, whatever you want." The envoy suddenly laughed out loud, "But considering your rudeness to me just now, I have to add a condition. Since you said that opening the level is a by-product, then if you can't open it, you have to get out of Nord Town."

The envoy's plan was very clear. He could actually feel that Alice and Leo were basically centered around Zero-One. If he wanted them to obey his arrangements, he had to exclude Zero-One first. It would be fine if Zero-One awakened on its own, but if Zero-One had poor talent and did not awaken on its own, don't blame him for being cruel.

Lingyi accepted it happily: "Okay, but I also have a condition. If I open the level, the group of children behind me, Leo, and Alice can all enter the Royal Adventure Academy you just mentioned without any barriers, and the annual tuition fee will be reduced by half. Is that okay?"

"That's great. I accept your condition. Please come in." The envoy said, and stepped aside solemnly, giving the main seat to Lingyi.

Lingyi took a deep breath, then walked up the stairs and slowly walked towards the stone pillar.

……

"From what happened just now, maybe time is really going backwards, so maybe the old lady's words can be believed. As for now, maybe ten-year-old children can indeed successfully unlock the level."

"But what's wrong is that the facts obtained from the mouth of the chief are completely opposite. Ten-year-old children cannot open the level. Leo also proved it with his actions, but is it really impossible to open it? "

"Why do you want to mention the academy at this occasion? Can't you wait until the ceremony is over before giving a unified explanation? Even if you want to talk about it now, why do you have to mention the tuition fee so much? Although I don't know what a gold coin is, I seem to be able to guess a little from the expressions of others. It should be at least tens of thousands of RMB."

"They even colluded with the Adventurer's Guild to make us feel at ease and choose to enroll, even disregarding the safety of the students. The guild clearly posted a notice that one must be fifteen years old to apply. There must be some factors that the children cannot bear. Is it similar to the internship system in high school and university like the three plus two when I was in school?"

"No, that's not right. An internship is a job anyway, but the adventurer's commissions and tasks seem to be more about defeating monsters. This should be consistent with the idea brought by my previous world."

"Since it is a crusade, there must be danger to life. That's the problem. Because there is danger to life, it is set that one can only apply to become an adventurer after reaching adulthood."

"And the guarantee of the academy is too strange. Why do you think that "opening the level" is the result of your own hard work and practice? But the envoy can swear that the academy can successfully open the level for all students who enter. Why?"

"You're still talking about refunding tuition fees, that's too... tuition fees? Is it money? Tens of thousands of yuan a year is not much, but it's just tens of thousands per person a year. What if all the more than 200 people here enroll together?"

'If you put it that way, it might actually make sense. Even if there are only half of them, he can still make a lot of money.'

"One gold coin, it's still a matter of information. If one gold coin is really worth that much money, it's hard to say..."

……

Lingyi thought to himself as he arrived in front of the stone pillar, glancing at the envoy from the corner of his eye: "Master envoy, can I begin?"

"Of course, please." The envoy smiled and stretched out his hand, instructing Lingyi to touch the stone pillar.

Lingyi turned around and slowly placed his right hand on the stone pillar: "I have a question, Master Zhengshi, is it true that ten-year-old children rarely awaken nowadays?"

"Of course, there are very few, or it has always been like this since ancient times." Zheng Shi nodded confidently.

"Really? Then how does the academy get the confidence to say that it can definitely allow all enrolled students to successfully unlock their levels?" Lingyi asked again.

"The secrets cannot be revealed, kid. We will tell you some things you need to know, and you don't have to ask about things you don't need to know. Do you understand?" The envoy looked at Lingyi with a smile.

"Really? It seems I don't need to know. I haven't even started school yet." Lingyi said, and Zhengshi nodded slightly. "Excuse me, sir, what is the concept of a gold coin? I come from the countryside and have never come into contact with currency. I don't really understand these things."

"One gold coin! This is a sky-high price for you commoners. It's like buying a big house in Nord Town." The envoy stroked his chin and recalled.

"Ah? A big house?" Lingyi was a little shocked. Perhaps the significance and value of a gold coin in this world far exceeded the "tens of thousands of RMB" he estimated. "How big is it? 70 square meters? 80, 90? More than 100?"

"What are you talking about? What's the square footage? It's probably just three rooms and a main hall. Is there any problem?" Zheng Shi asked in confusion.

……

"Three bedrooms and one living room... It's about 90-100 square meters, right? No way, one gold coin can buy a house of square meters? That's worth at least several million yuan!"

'But Nord is not a famous town, and it is probably not as good as a normal first-tier city.'

'But it's pretty close!'

……

Lingyi cursed in his heart and looked at the envoy blankly, but the envoy was stroking his moustache nonchalantly.

"What are you doing? Why aren't you starting yet?" he urged.

"Yes, I will, I will..." Lingyi turned around and stared at the stone pillar in a daze.

A three-bedroom, one-living room house is a house. It must cost at least several million! However, this was the feudal era, so prices may not have risen to that level.

No wonder the children living in the city were scared pale when they heard the tuition fee of one gold coin per year. This is a school that only royal relatives can attend. No normal person can afford it.

"What's wrong, Lingyi? Aren't you going to start yet?" The emcee standing behind the envoy also urged Lingyi.

Lingyi glanced at it briefly and didn't take it to heart. Then he slowly closed his eyes and felt the magic power in his body.

"Tsk, you're probably scared." He sneered disdainfully.

"What are you talking about!" Leo ran towards the envoy in anger when he heard it. Fortunately, Alice was by Leo's side and pulled Leo to prevent him from making things worse.

"Leo, calm down Leo." Alice hurried to protect Leo.

"No, he bullied Lingyi so much, and you let him talk nonsense?" Leo pointed at the envoy and questioned Alice.

"It's not that I want to let him talk nonsense, but I believe Xiaoyi can give the answer. Calm down and believe Xiaoyi, okay?" Alice comforted Leo.

Although he was full of anger, Leo slowly lowered his raised fist after hearing Alice's words: "Tsk, you don't know how to appreciate it." The envoy saw that Leo was angry and looked at him with even more disdain.

"Mr. Envoy, we just have to wait and see. Don't be too confident. Xiaoyi is the smartest among the three of us." Alice promised the envoy solemnly.

"Smart? Just a little trick. In the face of absolute strength and facts, brains? Not worth mentioning." Zhengshi shook his head in disdain and looked at Lingyi with some anticipation, expecting how he would make a fool of himself.

"Unfortunately, Xiaoyi also knows this, so Xiaoyi's strength should not be underestimated. Although he is the youngest of the three of us, he is recognized as the little devil in our entire village." Alice smiled very confidently.

"Tsk, little devil..." The envoy laughed even louder. In his eyes, what kind of vision could the small mountain village of Wuming Village have? They couldn't even handle a kid, and yet they gave him the nickname of little devil. Country people just didn't know their place.
