Chapter 179: School Time Is Both Long and Short

Only professionals who have teamed up with the Odd Machine Master to adventure can understand how much the quality of life can be improved by having such a big brother during the adventure.

After dismantling the motor vehicle and putting it into the dimensional bag, the group rode the Phantom Horse back to Tonglu City.

At this time, the riots in the city had been suppressed, and Malchi, the tower master of the Odd Machine Tower, seized control of the mechanical soldiers with his own strength.

Looking at the densely packed mechanical soldiers standing on the street, Carl was actually a little scared.

He didn't know there were so many of them before, otherwise they wouldn't dare to fight them.

"Speaking of which, I know one of the masterminds of this matter. At the beginning, I studied with him under Marix, who created the Dragon Mark Family."

Approaching the crime scene, Morban Jin was unusually melancholy.

I don't know if his sentimental entanglement is because he is about to face his old friend, or for some other reason.

"Moorban? You're here."

In the Tongluo Dragon Mark Family's residence, Malchi looked at Morban, his expression as indifferent as ever.

Things in Tonglu City were as easy as a walk for him.

"Tower Master."

After bowing, Morban took a quick look at the old magic artillery master caught by Malchi.

The other party had nothing in common with the appearance in his memory, except for the unyielding look, which was still the same as before.

Without talking to the other party, Morban directly discussed the subsequent disposal with Malchi.

The person in charge of the Tonglu Dragon Mark Family came up and talked to the two.

The oppressive atmosphere made Carl feel a little uncomfortable, so he took off his helmet and picked up the tea and snacks beside him to eat.

"Ah! What are you doing!"

Seeing Carl's behavior, Nia, who was thin-skinned, immediately stepped forward to stop him.

But she was caught off guard and was blocked by a piece of snack stuffed by Carl.

Lisanna followed Carl's steps with shining eyes, and the two Eruden people ate and drank on the Andel people's territory.

"What's wrong with eating some of his food? We helped them eliminate such a big hidden danger this time, and he has to thank us!"

Carl was not greedy for such a little food, but mainly because he did have a little hypoglycemia after driving the Titan Warforged Armor before, and needed sugar supplement.

As for Lisanna, well, she was just greedy.

I don't know how long it has been, but Malchi and the head of the Dragon Mark Family seem to have finally reached some kind of tacit understanding, so the two sides finally shook hands and made peace.

Seeing this harmonious scene, Carl burped and poured himself a cup of tea to suppress his fullness.

"This must be the hero of the Tower of Strange Machinery, right? Oh! This time it's really thanks to him, otherwise if these traitors really accumulated enough prototypes, Tonglu City would be in danger!"

Pretending to have just seen Carl, the head of the Dragon Mark Family stepped forward with a smile on his face and shook Carl's hands.

But he and Malchi had glimpsed him more than once when Carl was eating snacks.

It should be said that this is also a kind of skill.

"No, no, it's just a coincidence. This incident is thanks to these two spies of the Kingdom's Eye. You will have to take care of the follow-up matters."

As he said this, Malchi waved to Cass and Hong.

Cass and Hong pointed at themselves in surprise, then walked forward obediently and joined the follow-up discussion.

Of course, this matter could not be informed to ordinary citizens of Andel through the phantom device.

Although some new nobles did intend to get involved in the Andel royal power, they could not be killed with one stick.

Andel still needs the help of these new nobles in many aspects of construction.

At this time, the existence of the Kingdom's Eye played a good lubricating role.

Carl was not very interested in the topics of these "adults". Seeing that the tower master and others would probably talk for a long time, he simply took Nia and others to sit on the chairs and wait.

Not to mention, it is worthy of being the reception room of the Dragon Mark Family. The comfort of the chairs is not much worse than those in the Storm or the Golden Dragon Inn.

After an unknown amount of time, the conversation stopped. Carl opened his eyes in confusion, his eyes as innocent as an academic locust attending an academic seminar with his instructor.

"Huh? It's over?"

Rubbing his eyes, Carl confirmed with Mooreban.

Moorban glared at his apprentice unhappily, and then simply took them back to the Tower of Wonders on the teleportation array.

He had originally planned to find an opportunity to let his apprentice show up in the subsequent phantom recording, and maybe even let Queen Andel award him an honorary medal such as the Enthusiastic Citizen Medal.

As a result, Carl fell asleep and even snored faintly.

"If you had performed just now, maybe you would have been able to inherit my position."

Appearing again in the teleportation square of Akanix, Mooreban looked at his apprentice, feeling a little regretful.

"Master, I still want to go out and take a look. I want to stay in school directly after graduation...Nia might be more suitable."

After leaving the Dragon Pattern Family's residence, Carl suddenly became energetic.

He didn't hide anything from his master.

This made Mooreban look at him twice more.

"I didn't expect you to be such a good at pretending to be stupid, but it's okay. With your grades, you don't have to do this even if you want to stay in school."

But when he said this, Mooreban still sighed.

Karl may not be his most talented apprentice, but he hopes that Karl can inherit his position.

If Karl can be more active, the tower master may agree to it.

But now...

Shaking his head, Mooreban whispered, "Children and grandchildren have their own blessings," and stopped worrying about it.

...

A month later, the business internship of the third year of the strange machine master ended. Karl returned the voodoo workshop and returned to the strange machine tower to prepare for the final exam.

The previous war forged rebellion incident has now been concluded. Queen Andel informed the people of Andel of the whole incident after discussion through the phantom device.

A large number of new nobles fell from power because of this incident, and even the class leader who had helped Karl and whose family was a manufacturer of military constructs had some lawsuits.

The influence of the Jinquanhui in the Andel area suffered a heavy blow. Queen Andel took the opportunity to clear out many Jinquanhui merchants who were related to this incident from the Andel area.

Khorvaire does not have any special protection regulations for merchants. When Queen Andel expelled their business, merchants from her own country immediately filled the vacancy.

With the existence of Akanix, all businesses in Andel will not lack partners.

Cass and Hong played a significant role in this incident, and were promoted to team leaders of the spy team respectively.

When Carl finished his final exams, Cass even came to Akanix to take professional training courses for arcane knights with Carl.

Although Carl did not plan to add spirituality to the core of the arcane knight's profession, to be honest, Akanix's arcane knight training is indeed good.

Those mages have limited levels, but scholars who specialize in magic theory have applied some of the professional characteristics of battle mages to arcane knights.

The skills of using magic to interfere with the trajectory of spells and using one's own body to buffer magic have greatly improved Carl's combat capabilities.

It was not until the New Year that Carl returned to Vana City with Lisanna.

Hope was also on vacation at this time. The long separation did not slow down the relationship between her and Carl. Instead, they were like a newlywed couple.

Carl and Lisanna told her about their lives in Akanix, and Hope also shared her training in the Druid Academy with them.

But compared with Carl and the others, Hope's life was inevitably a bit monotonous.

Carl's aunt was notoriously strict. Although Hope could endure hardships, she was still trained to the point of complaining.

What surprised Carl was that there was more than one tiefling in the Druid Academy.

A blue-skinned tiefling from the Demon Wasteland became Hope's best friend.

The other party's professional configuration was exactly the same as Hope's, which was also a combination of barbarians and druids.

The only difference was that the other party's barbarian sub-profession was wild magic, and the druid sub-profession was the Earth Society.

Carl's father's factory has now become a hot weapons workshop in Vana City.

Double-gun revolvers and matching quivers have now become standard equipment for rangers in the city.

It is said that even the distant Kubara (a place similar to the American West combined with the Amazon jungle) has sent merchants to buy a large number of equipment from the weapon workshop.

Although this is destined to be a one-time deal, Carl's father Ryan still agreed.

This made Carl understand why he encountered so many enemies using his own weapons some time ago.

In order to keep his own workshop at the forefront of the industry, Carl designed and developed an improved version of the Gatling heavy machine gun and a light and heavy crossbow made in imitation of Monster Hunter equipment.

When Carl returned to Akanix after the New Year, he heard from the exchange student rangers that these weapons had repeatedly made military exploits in the Demon Wasteland, and the Green Heart City was even going to prepare a medal for Carl.

In the new semester, Carl had a better understanding of his own physical condition, so he basically stayed in the Tower of Wonders to study and practice.

During this period, Lisanna finally made progress in the profession of Wonder Mechanic.

Carl made an exception and took her to complete several missions around, raising her level of the Artificer to level 3.

However, Lisanna only had a partial understanding of the basic occupational characteristics and sub-occupational characteristics of the Artificer, and she did not master too many abilities of the Artificer throughout the semester.

This is actually one of the reasons why Carl and Nia have always stayed at a low level before. Before you learn and master professional knowledge, upgrading rashly will not bring much increase in your combat power.

In the noisy college life, Carl helped Lisanna master professional skills while contributing to the fantasy drama career of Benboba and Baboben.

Carl's wealth accumulated rapidly, and his professional knowledge gradually deepened.

Time flies, and Carl is in the sixth grade.
