Hinting that Crail was daydreaming, he didn't hide his attitude at all. Beside him, a group of people laughed wantonly, forgetting that they were also full of yearning just now.
"Hahaha, there really is such a person."
"Let's call him Dreamer 'Mr. Crail' from now on."
On this side, Crail listened from beginning to end. He knew that they sent Derrick to take the lead to seize the opportunity to find ways to undermine his prestige. The ultimate goal was still the academy's GPA, which was related to everyone's future.
Although his face was livid, he couldn't refute because what he said was the truth.
Now Elvin also understood where Crail's unnatural expression came from when the "Shadow Library" was mentioned.
Elvin was a little worried about Crail. He knew that although Crail told him not to get his hopes up. But judging from his hobby of collecting mysterious items, the "Shadow Library" was obviously his obsession.
Bang —
"What's so funny? Mysterious knowledge not only represents power, but also danger. If I were the manager of the Shadow Library, I would also set restrictions and let those who are temporarily unprepared stay outside, instead of allowing dangerous knowledge to spread and cause disasters.
The library management office is in the clock tower. If it really is a bad joke, what reason does the academy have to cooperate with it?
People who don't even dare to try it themselves, what right do they have to laugh at a warrior who keeps on fighting despite repeated failures based on hearsay?! "
Elvin stood up and glanced at the Kelson faction who were still laughing wantonly. His figure wasn't very tall, but it gave off an indescribable sense of oppression. Behind him, more than a dozen people in Crail's faction also stood up at the same time.
"Kelson, is it fun to let your underlings do these dirty tricks all day long? If you want GPA, earn it with your own ability. Belittling others doesn't make you look nobler. If you have the guts to settle conflicts with swords in the arena, I'll be there anytime! "
Including Derrick and his "master" Kelson, who were laughing the loudest, no one dared to look at Elvin. They all looked away.
This was because the news of Elvin taking down Wacker Wales before school started had already spread. Most of the people present did not have the confidence to win against Elvin, let alone one on one, even if two or three of them worked together.
Furthermore, there were a few who had been defeated by Skywark Wales, so how could they claim to be brave?
There was a moment of silence. Crail looked at Elvin gratefully and subtly tugged at his sleeve. He did not want Elvin to stand up for him and become enemies with others.
Derek put on a fierce front.
"Elvin Garrett, you …!"
Bang!
The door of the auditorium was suddenly pushed open.
Paul, the instructor of the short-term training class, rushed into the room. When he saw Elvin, he let out a sigh of relief and dragged Elvin out.
"Elvin, come with me quickly. Someone from the Church is here and wants to see you."
.....
Elvin did not expect a guest from the Black Iron Cross Church's Niein Cathedral to arrive earlier than the Royal Medical Association.
"Student Elvin, this is Bishop Randolph from the Goddess' Sanctuary. He came here specifically to see you."
Following Paul into the reception room, Elvin saw a white-haired old man in a black robe accompanied by a school manager.
"Hello, Bishop!"
In this world where gods existed objectively, the clergy had the biggest backing in the world and their status was slightly higher than that of the secular officials. Elvin was no exception and bowed to the old man first.
"Hello, my child." The old but hale and hearty bishop gave Elvin a warm hug. He did not beat around the bush and directly stated his purpose for coming.
"By the will of the Goddess …"
“.....”
"May the glory of the Goddess be with you!"
After sending the old bishop off with the school manager and the instructor, Elvin looked down at the "Iron Cross Medal" on his chest under the envious gaze of the two people beside him. It was given by the Church and blessed by the Goddess.
Because Iven had never been a devout believer, it was only when he saw the Church today that he realized the truth. The Goddess of Navigation and Royalty worshipped by the Iron Cross Church had many divinities in the field of "navigation".
Thanks to the divinity of "navigation", other than the long-term belief of the believers, all inventions and even daily activities that were beneficial to navigation could increase the power of the Goddess. To put it bluntly, other than the lives of the seafarers, the Goddess of Navigation and Royalty was the biggest beneficiary of Elvin's invention.
The moment Elvin's solution was announced, the higher-ups of the Black Iron Cross Church received the revelation and heard the Goddess' joy.
Although in the eyes of the local bishop, Elvin was at most a pan-believer, he should be rewarded. The Goddess' decision was even more unquestionable.
After all, decades ago, when the first battleship of the Kingdom of Shilius was launched, the chief designer of the "Eternal Fire" also received the Goddess' gift as a believer, not to mention Elvin, who was only a pan-believer.
The Iron Cross Medal did not have a rank, but it meant that the holder's contributions to the Church were remembered and recognized by the Church. As long as they did not commit serious crimes such as blasphemy, they would generally be protected by the Church depending on the situation.
Also, the medal holder was generally regarded as the same rank as the bishop in the Church. Although they did not have the corresponding rights, their status was the same.
This was especially so in the countries of the Tulip Alliance that shared the same faith. Other than the nobles who were "born noble," military or teaching staff were very popular. They were also the first choice of ladies who could not marry into noble families of the same level.
Elvin didn't care about these conveniences. What he valued more was the medal itself. After receiving the Goddess' blessing, the essence of the medal had changed. It could be said that it was a very precious extraordinary item.
His spiritual senses told Elvin that its true effect was to "protect the wearer from the harm of the sea."
Thanks to the Goddess' status as a true God, in theory, it could be used even if they left the base of the Goddess' faith and went to places outside the Black Sea.
Even if the two people next to him did not know the specific effect of the medal, its symbolic meaning was enough to make them envious.
At the same time, the two people who knew the whole story could already imagine Elvin's great future and expressed their goodwill. The supervisor said that he wanted to apply for a scholarship for Elvin, and the instructor said that Elvin's time could be used freely in the future. As long as he could ensure that he passed the test, he would not interfere too much.
Although with their status in the academy, they did not need to curry favor with any student. Subconsciously, it was the instinct of the academy officials to befriend every future star. It could also be said that they were investing in the future.
On the other side.
In the small auditorium, the crowd had yet to disperse.
"Look, come and see." A student waved a newspaper and ran into the auditorium.
"What's the situation? Why are you in such a hurry?"
The student who just came in had already read out the contents of the newspaper.
"Our reporter interviewed the president of the Kingdom of Faletis' Royal Medical Association, Mr. Duncan Douglas. He confirmed that the kingdom's navy's Lieutenant Commander Elvin Garrett published a groundbreaking prevention and treatment plan.
He brought good news to the sailors who suffered from scurvy and solved the problem that troubled the navigators for hundreds of years in one fell swoop …
Lieutenant Commander Elvin Garrett was described by President Duncan as' the pioneer of the greatest discovery in the past decade '…
The Church publicly called him 'the Goddess's Favored' … "
The Royal Navy called him 'the model of the kingdom's military' … "
"Elvin Garrett?"
"Groundbreaking? Great? "
"Goddess? A favored one? Model? "
The group of people looked at each other.
Especially the Kelson School students who were just planning to find an opportunity to teach the "insolent speaker" a lesson. They acted out what it meant to "cease fire" for everyone …
This news had already been reported to the kingdom and the church before the medical association sent the letter to Elvin. In just a few days, almost at the same time as the letter to Elvin, it was published on the main page of the official newspaper (the specific prevention and treatment method was not mentioned).
