Vidomina quietly watched as Tisdale gave out orders and arranged everything in an orderly manner. The professors who had gathered in the meeting room left one after another, leaving only the people from Divinity College.
"Cia, go to the Church and look for Bishop Wesley. See if you can get help from them. I know they're not on good terms with us, but at least we're on the same page when it comes to protecting lives. Also, Professor Hantai, can you please stop staring at my legs? Professor is going to punish you again, "Tisdale said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
"Ahem, ahem. Sorry, Dale. I couldn't help it …" The Paladin Walker scratched his helmet sheepishly and bolted out the door. Laeticia nodded at Tisdale and ran after him.
Tisdale and Vidomina were the only ones left in the conference room. Tisdale sat down tiredly and panted. Vidomina hugged her from behind and rubbed her chin against Tisdale's shoulder. "Sister Dale, I almost thought I was a student again. To be honest, I didn't know what to do with Professor Halsey's objection. Thank goodness you're here." Tisdale's eyes widened as she looked at Tisdale and said, "Sister Dale, I almost thought I was a student again. To be honest, I didn't know what to do when Professor Halsey objected.
When they were still in Da Xue, Tisdale was the undisputed leader of the student body. She was also the first graduate to receive a platinum necklace, and she became the role model for many of her peers.
Out of all of Baiyi's students, the one he doted on the most was, without a doubt, Little Mia; the most obedient was Nota, who listened to everything he said; the strongest was Attie, who had regained the War God's favor; Mordred, who had the best foundation; and Vidomina, who had the best family background.
However, among the students, the one who had learned the most from Baiyi, the one who was most like Baiyi, the one whom Baiyi trusted the most, and the one whom his sisters approved of the most — was, of course, Tisdale.
At this moment, Tisdale was feeling her sister's embrace. In fact, she could vaguely sense her sister's feelings, so she turned her head and rubbed her face against hers. She said, "If I or the teacher aren't here next time, I'll have to rely on you."
"Can someone like me grow to be as good as you, Big Sis Dale?" Vidomina asked, feeling a little inferior.
"Good luck." Tisdale gently held her hand and encouraged her. "There are still many things in the academy that require your attention. You also need to make preparations to accept the refugees. We'll have to rely on you for these matters."
"Don't worry." Vidomina nodded confidently.
While the entire Da Xue was busy preparing for the upcoming battle, Arfin City Lord Baiyi abandoned his post and rode his carriage to the entrance of the Da Xue. It was the street that Vidomina had given him as a gift for their first meeting.
The street had been completely remodeled to resemble the gates of an academy. Many people had gathered on the street, unaware that Arfin City had been besieged by the undead. They were only disturbed by the sudden appearance of the strange realm. Some of them went to the Mayor's Mansion to inquire about the situation, but most of them went to Da Xue, which represented the pinnacle of academia.
However, when the people saw the City Lord's carriage appear here, they immediately realized that something big had happened. Panic began to spread. They surrounded the carriage, but were stopped by the guards with spears.
"Tell us what's going on!"
"Why is the City Lord here at Da Xue? Is he trying to escape?! "
In addition to the city lord's side, a large group of people also gathered outside the teleportation array leading to the Academy's plane. The teleportation array leading to the Academy was set up in a building that looked like an auditorium. There was a large group of guards guarding the entrance. The people wanted to enter the Academy, but they were blocked outside by the guards who had received orders. When the panic spread here, there naturally erupted into a riot.
"Why are outsiders forbidden from entering? Can anyone come out and explain this to me? "
"My son is in there! I need to see him!"
"I'm one of the biggest sponsors of Da Xue! I want to see Principal Hope right now!"
The entire street was in a state of chaos. If the chaos continued to spread, Da Xue's defenses would not be in place before it was destroyed by the rioters.
At that moment, the portal finally responded. Attie, who was draped in a translucent white chiffon with only a few pieces of cloth covering her private parts, walked out of the portal. Her body was covered in a white, translucent chiffon, with only a few pieces of cloth covering her private parts. Her curvaceous body and tanned skin were exposed to the crowd, but she did not care about the stares that were directed at her. She said coldly,
"Go back. Stay in your homes. Nothing will happen. We will protect you."
She took two steps forward and said, "Soon, many students and supplies will pass through here. Don't block the entrance. Go home."
Someone recognized Attie from her beautiful skin. "She's Professor Attie from the Warrior Academy. I've heard about her before," someone yelled. "I think she's Professor Attie from the Warrior Academy. I've heard about her before."
"Such a young and beautiful girl is a professor at Da Xue? Don't tell me — "
"Don't underestimate her. Every professor at Da Xue is a powerhouse, unlike those old pedants from other academies. Where do you think this is? This is Da Xue! "
Although Attie's attire was unusual and she was ridiculously young, the title of Da Xue's professor was a symbol of trust. They trusted Da Xue, and that meant they trusted Attie.
"Since Da Xue is here, the problem will be solved, right? Principal Hope has saved the world a few times already. With him around, we have nothing to worry about, right? "
"Are we just going to leave now? Won't we cause more trouble if we stay here? "
"But what's going on? I heard that students and supplies are coming out. Did something terrible happen? "
Attie cleared her throat and said, "There's a group of enemies trying to attack Arfin City. We're going out to destroy them."
Her words caused a commotion among the crowd. Didn't the war end a long time ago? Why would there be enemies attacking? Who were they? Northerners? Demons?
At this moment, a person shouted from a distance, "Everyone, calm down!"
The crowd turned to the voice. It was the mayor, who was surrounded by the crowd. His carriage was blocked, so he had no choice but to drag his fat body onto the roof of the carriage. Then, he gave a speech to the crowd.
He admitted that there was an enemy attack, but he did not mention the undead. He did not say how many undead there were, either. He also promised that he would cooperate with Da Xue to protect the city.
"Don't tell me that you all doubt Principal Hope's power? With him here, no enemy can hurt you. Go home now, lest you get hurt in the battle! "The mayor continued to shout.
With the persuasion of the two leading figures, the crowd suppressed their unease and retreated under the lead of the mayor's guards and Da Xue's guards. Seeing that the situation was under control, the mayor jumped off the carriage and ran to Attie's side. He looked at her slender waist greedily, then up to her voluptuous bosom. Then, he looked away. "Professor Attie, where is Principal Hope right now? This is a very dangerous situation. I'm afraid he'll have to deal with it himself. "
Attie could tell that the mayor did not think that a little girl like her could handle this kind of situation.
"Master has gone to another realm. He's not here," Attie replied calmly.
The mayor's face fell. "Then … Then what about the Sage-Emperor of the Magi? Is he here? "
There were many rumors about the true identity of the First Walker, the Archmage. Some believed it, while others did not. As the governor of Arfin City, the mayor had been in contact with Da Xue for the past ten years, so he knew more than anyone else. He also knew that even if Baiyi was not around, as long as he could get the Emperor of the Rohlserlian Empire to help, the situation would be under control in no time.
"I don't know what happened to Grandpa, but he suddenly fell apart," Attie answered honestly.
"Fell apart?" The mayor looked as if he had seen a ghost. 'Are you Voidwalkers Lego? You can just fall apart like that? '
"Then … Then what do we do now?" The mayor asked anxiously. "There's only an hour left before the first wave of the undead army arrives!"
Attie frowned. "You don't think there's no one else in Da Xue other than Master and Grandpa, do you?" As she spoke, she glanced behind her and pushed the City Lord. "Move aside," she said rudely.
A series of flashes appeared on the teleportation portal behind her, and soon, a series of metal marionettes appeared neatly in the teleportation portal. When they finished teleporting, their bodies completely solidified, and their oblate heads turned slightly, revealing a single red eye in the middle of their heads. At the same time, a dark red light shone from the eye.
The marionettes started moving. They walked out of the teleportation portal neatly with their sturdy legs, smashing through the walls of the auditorium and walking out in a single file with heavy footsteps.
The mayor's eyes widened as he stared at the army of marionettes. They were nearly two meters tall, and their bodies were all black. Their hands, shoulders, and elbows were covered with spikes. The sight made his throat go dry. When one of the marionettes turned to look at him with its red eye, the mayor jumped in fright.
Da Xue has this kind of power? "The mayor exclaimed. He was so shocked that he couldn't find the right words to express himself.
Attie smiled and said coldly, "These are old models that we brought out for the Imperial Engineering Competition three years ago. The emperor behind you should know about it, but you don't? It seems like you haven't done your job well enough. "
The mayor's face turned red. He wanted to say something, but in the end, he swallowed his words and asked helplessly, "So, what should I do now?"
"Go where you're supposed to go and do what you're supposed to do," Attie said and walked away without looking back, leaving the mayor standing there in a daze.
He had run to Da Xue as soon as he could, instead of using the more convenient communication spell. He had planned to escape to Da Xue as soon as possible, but Attie's words had dispelled that thought.
As the Castellan of Arfin City and the Emperor's loyal servant, Attie claimed to be Da Xue's most trustworthy partner, but in reality, he was one of Da Xue's overseers. Everyone was well aware of this fact, but Attie had pointed out Attie's identity and pointed out that he was not doing a good job. Basically, Attie was reminding him not to forget their positions and not to think about taking refuge in Arfin City.
Other than the mayor, the other nobles had also heard about the news. However, there were too many people in the city, so they couldn't get in. When the crowd dispersed, they tried to get in, but they were blocked by the old-fashioned marionettes. It turned out that the first batch of marionettes didn't go straight to the city gate. Instead, they guarded the main path that the outsiders used to enter the university, sealing it off.
The nobles revealed their identities and even used the names of their families to threaten the cold marionettes. However, when they saw the marionettes' cold, ghastly red eyes, they realized how stupid they were. After saying a few words, they shut their mouths. Some of the more tactful ones turned around and left, but some of them stayed behind and cursed at Baiyi and Da Xue for being idiots.
This was Tisdale's decision. They would protect the city, but Da Xue needed to be protected as well. The safety of millions of civilians was important, but so was Da Xue's Baiyi's Da Xue. After all, if they allowed the refugees to flood into the city, these people would lose control of their emotions and do something even worse than the undead.
"Compared to the disaster itself, the people who have gone mad are more terrifying than the disaster itself," Baiyi had once said to Tisdale. She remembered it clearly.
That was why Da Xue would not allow outsiders to enter unless it was absolutely necessary.
