Chapter 159 Zuo Ao and You Ao
The sky was dim, and the unique white mist in the early morning enveloped the gray streets.
It was still very early and the sun had not yet risen.
There were only a few pedestrians walking silently and quickly on the flat stone road. From time to time, a carriage or a steam carriage emitting black smoke could be seen speeding past.
Inside a public carriage.
Colin put down the dark brown car curtains, picked up the white paper in his hand that recorded the instructor's information, and looked at it carefully again.
It has been two days since the exam of Xisheng School.
Today is the time to report to the real station of the Xisheng School... The Xisheng Station, which was previously located in the center of the city for examinations, is actually more like an institution outside the Xisheng School.
The real headquarters of the school is in the Huapei neighborhood further away.
If we divide it according to the city in the previous life, it is probably located around the south of the second ring road of Neustadt City.
Tap tap tap tap——
As the carriage moved forward, the appearance of the surrounding streets changed obviously. Looking around, there were no longer shops with signboards. Instead, they were replaced by tall doors and walls... There were more and more deep houses and compounds.
After a while, the groom pulled the reins, the horse neighed, and the carriage gradually stopped.
Huapei Street, Xisheng Street, arrived.
Taking Sister Renee with her, she stepped off the carriage and saw a tall, matte white arch. On the thick door, two iconic gold and silver intertwined feather patterns were clearly engraved on it.
On both sides of the door are tall gray brick walls that continue to extend to the far distance... The area is obviously not small.
Standing at the door, staring at the tall door wall in front of him, he suddenly felt that this place felt a bit like the university in his previous life.
There was no one guarding the door.
Following the instructions on the white paper, Colin walked to the door and took out the feather badge given to him by Arlin.
The left side of the solid door seems to be rippling on the water, and the original feather pattern is distorted and transformed.
The next second, a strange human face slowly emerged.
The standard triangle constitutes its whole body. The inverted triangular eyes, inverted triangular mouth, and inverted triangular face give people a sense of regularity and order.
"Oh, the new wizard?" The man yawned vividly and looked up at Colin, "You are the first one here today."
"Stop pretending, you don't have to sleep at all, why are you yawning?!"
Just as Colin was about to respond, another face suddenly appeared on the other side of the door. If the face on the other side was made up of an inverted triangle, then the face on this side was made up of an equilateral triangle.
"Youao, you!"
"What are you doing, Zuo Ao, don't forget our responsibilities, we are just created gatekeepers..."
"Gatekeeper!" Zuo interrupted loudly.
"Gatekeeper... golem!" Youao paused and continued to finish his words.
Before Zuo Ao could hurriedly retort, You Ao quickly continued:
"New apprentice, when entering for the first time, you need to put your badge among us, and at the same time, you and your servant need to put your palms on the door."
Zuo Ao seemed to have started to work, and calmed down, adding:
"The maid's accessory badge also needs to be placed in the middle groove."
"Okay." Colin's expression remained unchanged, but he was a little surprised. It was rare to see such a spiritual demon.
He and Sister Renee put the badge into the groove in the middle of the door, and then pressed their palms up.
A wave of waves swept over.
"Okay." Youao said.
"Thank you." Colin took the badge back and thanked him respectfully.
Although the two golems look inconspicuous, they cannot be simple roles as the gatekeeper golems of the Xisheng School.
"You're welcome." Zuo Ao said first.
You Ao glanced at Zuo Ao vividly, said nothing, and just controlled the right side of the door to slowly open.
Colin nodded to them and then strode in with Sister Renee.
What you can see is a wide avenue with strange trees and flowers regularly arranged on both sides, faintly emitting fluctuations of magic power. They are obviously not ordinary plants.
Colin did not linger and walked quickly towards the location where he was assigned a mentor according to the map.
While it's still early and there are few people on the road, it's better to go see the instructor early and let all the dust settle... As for the school, there will be plenty of opportunities to visit in the future.
About half an hour later, he came to the entrance of a trail shaded by green trees.
Looking along the path, there seems to be a manor at the end.
With its stone paths and clear water, the style here is completely different from other places in Neustadt.
If it weren't for the rougher stone bricks, the squarer pool, and the surrounding green trees and large expanses of flowers... this place would have felt to him like the residence of an expert who lived in seclusion deep in the mountains and forests in his previous life.
It's a pity that the European style makes this place more like an ancient manor.
Seeing this, Colin couldn't help but nodded... Apart from anything else, he was very satisfied with this environment alone.
No longer staying, he prepared to walk inside.
Buzz.
But the next second, a translucent blue light lit up, and a soft repulsion pushed him out of the path again.
Colin was slightly startled.
"Master?" Renee asked doubtfully.
Colin shook his head, paused, took out the feather badge of the school, and tentatively walked in again.
Buzz——
It was still the familiar translucent blue light, and the soft repulsion came again.
The force was not strong, but Colin did not continue to use brute force to push forward.
"Wait here." He turned to ask Sister Renee.
At present, although I learned a little bit about the school through Yaerlin on the day of the exam, such as the map of the school.
But we still don't know much information. Rather than wandering around looking for a solution, staying where we are and waiting is a better choice.
Just as he was thinking this, a deep voice suddenly came from behind.
"Who are you……?"
Colin looked back and saw a muscular man with short blond hair. The hair looked extremely hard and stood upright in dense rows.
Under such tough-guy-like hair, there is a simple and kind face.
"Hello, I am the new apprentice here." Colin raised his hand and showed the scholastic badge between his index finger and thumb to the strong apprentice.
"New apprentice...who is your mentor?" The short-haired man scratched his head and asked in confusion.
As he raised his hand, the standard witch robe of the Xisheng School was stretched tightly, revealing the solid chest muscles wrapped underneath.
"Archibald Rudolph," Colin replied, putting away his badge.
"Teacher Rudolf?" the brawny apprentice asked in surprise.
"The instructor actually assigned a new apprentice..."
"Let me introduce myself, my name is Marjorie Alex." The strong apprentice's expression suddenly became enthusiastic and he took the initiative to speak. "Master Rudolf's second apprentice is also your senior."
"Senior Marjorie." Colin nodded, greeted with a smile, and then pointed at himself and said, "Colin Leonard."
"Yeah." Marjorie nodded and said, "Let's go, I'll take you in."
