Chapter 91 Nicholas’ Mission

In this magical world, when wizards mention the word "snowman", they often have different meanings depending on the context.

For example, when adventuring in the mountains and wilderness, the snowman mentioned by wizards is a tall, strong, intelligent creature with thick snow-white hair and certain magical abilities. Theoretically, this kind of snowman only lives in Deep in the Himalayas - but because of their ferocious style, they are often used by old people to scare young wizards who are just starting out, so that they should be vigilant and not to have their heads ripped off by snowmen.

When we go to the Asian island countries, when we talk about snowmen, the wizards there will often talk about another kind of spirit, the snow girl. They are a kind of elves with beautiful appearance, tall figure and long light blue hair. They often live in the deep mountains and are good at controlling the wind and snow. Kiss them and capture their essence.

For example, at First University, after it snows, the snowmen everyone mentions on campus are those with a talisman stuck in their stomachs, swaying as they walk, and snowflakes rustling on their bodies. puppet.

Compared with its distant relatives, this 'snowman' is obviously far behind in terms of ability and intelligence.

But there is a time for a salted fish to stand up, let alone a snow puppet born in the magical world.

This kind of snowman, at a special time, in a certain environment, and through magic training, will give birth to a special creature that is beyond the ordinary snow puppet, but still maintains the appearance of a snowman - based on their identical appearance and completely different essence, The wizards simply named this creature the 'true snowman' to distinguish it from the 'false snowman' of ordinary snow golems.

The most essential difference between real and fake snowmen lies in their independence.

"The real snowman actually belongs to a kind of elemental life form."

"Although they can exist without wizards and ice and snow, these snowmen still hate high temperatures and the sun just like their ignorant cousins ​​- it's just that compared to the 'pseudo snowmen', they are slightly less resistant to high temperature environments. A little higher. Not too much, but when the sun comes out, they still have a chance to find a shady corner to hide. "

"Of course, if such snowmen really appear, they will not find a shady corner in the school. Thanks to the school's guardian array, such natural elves will instinctively stay away from the school and escape to the school wall. Go to the outside world."

"Perhaps they are around the cold pool deep in the Silent Forest, or they may be the servants of a certain ice snake. Of course, it is also possible that they are just hiding in the icehouse of a cold drink shop in Beta Town... In short, the real snowman is not I will stay in school stupidly and hope that the wizards will show mercy."

"If they do stay in the school, they are most likely dragged to the laboratory by some curious wizard."

"You may not necessarily die, but you will definitely not live as freely."

Listening to Nicholas's eloquent explanation, the young public-funded student was very interested. Suddenly, he sniffed, raised his head and glanced again at the chubby snowman that was slowly walking past the two of them and drifting away.

Perhaps influenced by Nicholas' introduction to the 'Real Snowman' just now, Zheng Qing always felt that the fat snowman who was gradually retreating had a bit of excitement all over his body.

Of course, it is more likely that these are just his illusions.

As Nicholas mentioned before, the conditions for the formation of a real snowman are very demanding - from a specific time, a special environment, special materials, to the magic level and skills of the maker, etc., every link is It's full of coincidences and luck - if someone in school really gets lucky and turns into a 'real snowman', then he should buy the lottery.

Seeing that the conversation of the talkative repeater came to an end, the young public-funded student took out his pocket watch and checked the time.

"Well, it's getting late, so I won't chat with you anymore." Zheng Qing waved happily, planning to say goodbye to Nicholas: "You should do your review questions... By the way, why aren't you in the library now? Did Liu Feifei give you a day off? "

With that said, he stopped leaving, and a narrow smile appeared on his face.

I don’t know since when, the chief freshman of Jiuyou College has also served as the homework tutor for this super senior student who has repeated two grades - including breaks between classes, morning and evening self-study, after holidays, etc., whenever he has some free time Every time, Nicholas would be dragged by Liu Feifei to the library to do questions, no matter it was windy or rainy, rain or shine.

Originally, the two of them would only avoid the public's attention when discussing things. However, since the relationship between the two was made more clear, Liu Feifei has become more and more aggressive. In many cases, she even directly arranges the place where the two of them eat. In the small square outside the library, let Nicholas eat and listen to her read the exam points on the history of magic.

The wizards in dormitory 403 privately discussed that if it were not for the restrictions of the school's rules and regulations, Nicholas would not even have the time to stay in the dormitory and sleep peacefully.

As the saying goes, God rewards hard work, Liu Feifei's hard work has not been wasted.

In the midterm evaluation not long ago, Nicholas' overall score ranking has reached the middle-to-upper level of the class - considering that the midterm professors all arranged in-class exams and the requirements are not high, this score is a little watery, but no matter what , as long as Nicholas maintains this state, he will definitely be able to get rid of the big hat of being a repeater this year.

After hearing the teasing words of the young public-funded student, Nicholas's face immediately turned red.

"No, I didn't say no..." He stuttered for a long time, and finally confessed: "I just came out to find a few snowflakes... Liz likes star-shaped pine needle snowflakes. When she was a child, every time it snowed for the first time, her mother would I will always find the most beautiful snowflake for her, preserve it with a little trick, and make it a Christmas gift.”

"Now the task falls on me."

When Zheng Qing listened to his explanation, the smile on his face disappeared without a trace - he regretted bringing up this topic. Although he didn't know much, he still vaguely knew through various sources that Nicholas's mother passed away due to an accident, leaving only Nicholas, who was not very talented, and a sick sister.

Liz was his sister's name.

For various reasons, everyone kept this matter secret - maybe because Nicholas's mother was just a magician, maybe because it was related to the death of a close relative of a classmate - in short, this matter was reported on most occasions. It's not suitable to use as a topic.
