Modan would never have thought that—

Lanqi actually looked at him straight, as if he had seen a savior.

The genuine and expectant look in his eyes made Modan feel a chill.

"?"

What normal person would feel such indescribable joy upon hearing that his family business was threatened?

How did your father abuse you since you were a child to make you hate the Wilford family so much? !

"In business wars, the winner is the king and the loser is the enemy. If you can swallow it, then swallow it. There is no need to notify me."

Lanqi shrugged and said with his eyes closed, looking heartless.

Modan took a deep breath, and he finally felt a sense of exasperation.

"Lanqi Wilford, it's meaningless to just talk. Your real ability will soon be exposed in the shadow world. I hope you don't embarrass yourself in the capital. Many people are watching you."

Modan also discovered that Lanqi's heartless look made him look like a demon!

No wonder he gets along so well with Hyperion.

"Huprienne, your mud boat will sink to the bottom of the sea with your dreams."

After saying this, Modan turned and left with a gloomy look.

Modan's words were full of confidence.

Because he knew that if Hyperion wanted to become stronger and get more chances to find her father, she could only beg him and submit to him.

One day she will figure it out and come find me.

……

After Modan left, there were finally many subtle noises rising and falling in the classroom.

Some perceptive students realized that the accusation that Lanqi had just made against Modan might be epoch-making.

Because many well-known universities in the southern continent have never had a precedent of successfully suing students from the same school and sending them to prison since their establishment.

Once Lanci started this bad thing, Hyperion hired him as a lawyer to threaten Modan.

Then the atmosphere of the Ikrit School of Magic is likely to be led astray by Ranchi.

In the past, if there were irreconcilable conflicts between students, most of them would go to the arena or the artificial shadow world with life protection to fight.

At worst, we can do something ruthless, bet something, and have a duel of dignity.

However, with Lanqi's demonstration, students will gradually discover that

For any campus conflict or dispute, the most effective and efficient method is to find a way to send the opponent directly to jail!

The back row of the classroom.

"Ugh--"

Hyperion finally smiled helplessly.

From the moment she met Lanqi, she felt that this guy was serious but also full of absurdity.

If he were an opponent, he would definitely be a super freshman.

But if it is a teammate, then he must be the most beautiful freshman who makes people feel extremely at ease.

"Lan Qi, thank you."

"It's just a small matter. I always hate fighting and only like to mediate. There is no need for meaningless quarrels between classmates."

Seeing Modan leave, Lanqi lay on the table and murmured.

He felt like he was about to become the Emperor of Awakening again.

I stared at the clock with sleepy eyes and felt that every minute and every second was torture.

Don't want to go to class.

Now he doesn’t even have the energy to read the law exam books that he has been studying so hard for.

Just like when he was in high school, whenever he encountered a subject he hated, he would fall on his desk as soon as the teacher opened his mouth.

Lanqi was thinking, why not go to the movie world today?

According to the rules and regulations of this school, if you miss classes due to challenging the Shadow World, it will not be counted as skipping classes, and you will be given a certain length of vacation for adjustment after passing the test.

Even if students participate in the Shadow World Challenge, the school will award them a small amount of real credits based on the difficulty and completion of the challenge - not only can these credits be used as elective credits for any semester, but if there are enough credits, they can even offset the credits for required courses!

Therefore, many stupid warriors in the Knight Academy put all their efforts into the Shadow World, trying their best to replace the required courses in a roundabout way!

Lanqi now feels that he is also going to take this path.

I couldn't help but look at Hyperion.

She looked like she had a very easy time studying today, not at all like she was suffering as much as I was.

Moreover, Hyperion should be a person with a more cautious and stable character.

I don’t know if she will agree to go on an adventure in the shadow world with me.

Chapter 42 Lanqi Law Firm

It was almost 4:30 in the afternoon. The afternoon sun had already slanted down from the sky, shining through the tall floor-to-ceiling windows and slanting onto one side of the classroom. The color of the light became deeper, with an orange-gold hue, adding a touch of softness to the classroom.

The table tops, empty chairs, and steps were all reflected with a dim light, as if quietly telling a story about time.

In the back row of the classroom, behind an empty long wooden table, there were only Hyperion and Lanci.

Hyperion didn't know why Lanqi was looking at her.

But after thinking about it, she met Lanqi's gaze, stared into his beautiful emerald eyes, and advised:

"Lanqi, don't meddle in my affairs anymore. There's no need for you to get involved..."

However, after hearing this, Lanqi was not moved. He just blinked his eyes with a calm look.

"I won't watch my friends get bullied, and didn't you want to defend me when Mordan called me a 'crappy lawyer' earlier?"

Lanqi smiled. He would always respond with kindness to others.

"Anyway, if you need any legal help, you can come to see me at Sage Hall Dormitory Building No. 101. Once I pass the bar exam, I can hang a sign next to the dormitory door that says [Lanqi Law Firm]."

"..."

Once again, Hyperion was unable to respond to any words.

……

Lanqi's words were overheard by other students.

Although no one came to disturb Lanqi, who looked too tired to talk to strangers.

But many people were paying close attention to what Lanci and Hyperion would say next.

The school rules of Ikrit School are actually very humane.

Because there are often students with unique skills, such as blacksmiths, sculptors, painters, chefs, pharmacists, card makers, etc., they will make their dormitories as popular as shops, and students of all ages from various colleges often come to visit.

The school tacitly tolerates this kind of social interaction in diverse campus life.

But the law firm...

It seems like I've never heard of it before.

Who the hell wants to find a lawyer in school!

This is a magic school, not a law school!

……

The branches and leaves of the trees on campus swayed gently in the breeze, and their shadows danced on the classroom floor like a silent dance.

Some students came and went on the paths of the campus. From time to time, distant laughter and conversation drifted into the classroom, making time seem illusory and yet extremely real.

After all.

After much hesitation, Hyperion finally nodded and accepted Lanqi's sincere kindness.

"If I can find my father, I will definitely ask him to treat you with the highest courtesy and invite you to become an advisor to the Duke of Alansar's family."

Hyperion's expression was one of solemn promise.

Although it is more likely to be a blank check, it represents Hyperion's attitude——

She recognized Lanqi as a friend, and he was also a friend of the Alansal family.

And the Alansal family will always repay a favor!

"Advisor to the Duke's family? If I really succeed, it will be a very prestigious title. If my father knew that I was doing so well in the capital, he would probably have a seizure..."

Lanqi smiled when he heard this. He didn't care whether this promise could be fulfilled or not. He just sighed at his new friend.

"Huprieanne, you always appear to be cold and heartless, but you are actually surprisingly kind-hearted."

"What's the meaning."

Hyperion didn't understand why Lanci said that.

"Because you have always thought about finding your father instead of inheriting the family."

Lanci explained with a smile.

"..."

After hearing what Lanqi said, Hyperion's eyes gradually drooped, as if she was gradually immersed in sad thoughts that were difficult to escape, and she couldn't say anything for a long time.

Until a little while later.

"…Father, he'll be fine."

Hyperion's expression still seemed unmoved, but her mood had obviously become quite complicated.

She risked her life and finally found some clues about her father's disappearance, but the results only vaguely pointed to the Crane Empire in the south.
