If an hour ago, Bai Jue's achievements were "slightly famous", then now, he is already "known to everyone and unknown to everyone".
Standing in the freshmen team, with Faisel's hat on his head, Bai Jue looked lazily at the man with a soft golden head standing on the podium, giving a welcome speech to the freshmen - even if he was a thousand-year-old man. Thousands of pairs of eyes stared at him, and the fact that he was disheveled did not bring him the slightest embarrassment. His hands wearing black leather gloves were placed on both sides of the podium, and his blue eyes swept the audience calmly. Every young face...
Being scanned by those calm lake-like eyes, many newcomers blushed, but became the first to lower their heads.
Bai Jue: "..."
He raised his hand, stretched out a finger, and gently pushed the hat on his head. The brim of the hat was raised and lowered, bringing with it a small smell of tobacco mixed with the breath of other male wolves, masculine, restrained, and yet... Take any aggressive, standard beta wolf flavor.
The sharp tip of his nose told Bai Jue that this was the smell of Feise——
At this point, the young man’s slightly scrutinizing gaze had to be once again placed on the much-anticipated “future star” standing on the stage——
If he is an A1pha, maybe he can have a very large wolf pack before graduation;
but now as a beta, he is destined to be the best deputy of the wolf pack that everyone on this campus, from the royal relatives to the grassroots upstart a1phas, is vying for...
There must be quite a few families that have extended an olive branch to him over the years?
However, with one year left to graduate, Feise has still not chosen his final wolf pack affiliation... Well, come to think of it, since he is a beta standing on a high platform today, and all A1phas are looking up to him Listening to his speech, this shows that at least within the scope of this school, there is no A1pha that can suppress him.
Of course, the young master Bai Jue has just entered school and cannot be compared with these useless old idiots in such a hurry, so he does not count.
“——Hello, Lancelot.”
“……”
His shoulder was bumped, and Bai Jue's train of thought was interrupted. He raised his eyebrows and looked away from Feise. He turned his head and found that standing next to him was one of the few A1phas in the same grade. One, this guy is tall and long, with light brown skin, slightly pointed ears, and a clean shaven head. He has the appearance of a standard southern wolf tribe... He seems to be a young master from the Rhine family. Bai Jue remembered that he was there before going out today. I heard my sister mention it once.
………………………That certain beta that that crazy b***h Lilith is currently pursuing all over the world with a big sword is from the Rhine family. Is it probably one of his brothers? So she loved the house so much that she warned Bai Jue before going out to be kind to her future "brother-in-law."
——Otherwise, Bai Jue would have turned his head and walked away by now.
——If it weren’t for the fact that he was still a little afraid of how annoying his eldest sister was.
At this time, seeing Bai Jue looking over, he was almost blinded by the pair of black eyes and the beautiful doll-like face. Manhart Rhine paused for a moment, and his mind went blank for a few seconds, forgetting what he had thought before. What to say, I just suddenly thought of the rumors circulating among some nobles: the Lancelot family has always raised their youngest alpha child as an omega.
Looking at it now, this rumor may not necessarily be as ridiculous and funny as it initially sounded.
It wasn't until the eyes that looked over were filled with a hint of impatience that Manhart could barely bring himself to recover from all kinds of bad off-topic fantasies. He winked and raised his chin at Bai Jue: "In I have been hearing discussions among my brothers before that the best beta from the Royal Knights Academy has been slow to find a home... causing everyone to fight over each other and see that they can't get enough, which is really annoying."
Bai Jue: "?"
Manhart smiled so much that he narrowed his eyes and revealed a wolf tooth: "Now I seem to know why..."
Bai Jue was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that there was someone else who was thinking about something with him and came to a conclusion before him, so he didn't care about this guy's tone that seemed a little too intimate. He raised his hand and pressed the brim of his hat: "What? ?”
“You.”
"Um?"
"I said, it's you!" Manhart narrowed his eyes, "Isn't it obvious enough? His behavior of giving you the hat just now frightened all of us - now all the A1phas in the school have probably got a message. Faise Lancelot will most likely belong to your wolf pack in the future."
Bai Jue: "????"
Manhart: "He just obeys you."
Bai Jue: "...He just gave me his hat."
Manhart: “He deducted his conduct points for you!”
Bai Jue didn’t understand at all: “After giving me the hat, of course he will deduct points for himself, because he has the power of life and death to deduct points in front of everyone, so he can open a back door for himself, unless he doesn’t want to do it anymore…”
Manhart didn’t listen to what he was saying at all: “Isn’t such an invisible oath so romantic?!”
Bai Jue: "W-what...I'm sorry I didn't quite understand--"
Manhart: "You have become the public enemy of the entire school's A1phas, because you have kidnapped the best betas."
Bai Jue: "..."
Bai Jue understood this sentence.
After being stunned for a moment, the young man's pupils gradually regained their composure. Then he opened his head and said coldly: "You have misunderstood. He does not belong to my wolf pack. As for the delay in finding the wolf pack, maybe it is because of Ambition or weirder quirks... He will graduate in one year. After entering the military, there will be a better wolf pack waiting for him to choose. Those famous generals are probably looking forward to this upstart. ——”
Speaking of the end, the tail sounds up, and there are some deeply hidden emotions in the sound ... When this says, Bai Jue's eyes inadvertently sweep the stage-
Then he unexpectedly looked into those lake-blue eyes.
Bai Jue: "..."
The young man was slightly startled, was he looking at him?
"You are the future of the empire, and you are also the stars scattered in the historical galaxy. Maybe the future will be bleak and silent until you fall, or maybe you will be dazzling and set up a galaxy that leads to a wider sea of stars for the empire..."
The man's deep voice came from the microphone calmly. Across the crowd, when he and Bai Jue looked at each other, they paused for a moment...then raised their lips without leaving any trace, and nodded slightly at the young man——
【Here, I wish all of you present that when your wings are full, you can spread your wings and fly high. 】
There seemed to be gentle lake water rippling in his eyes. At a glance, it was as calm as a mirror but bottomless.
When the thunderous applause sounded, Bai Jue stood in the crowd, frowned slightly, and took the lead to look away. He raised his hand and lowered the brim of his hat, using the shadow cast by the brim to cover all the emotions in his eyes.
…
The Freshman Reporting Day is just an ordinary day for the freshmen to get to know each other and get acquainted with the campus.
After the student representative gave a speech, everyone dispersed and went about their business. The nobles living in the imperial capital took helicopters or aircraft to go home, while the nobles a little further away ordered their servants to clean up the future. School building for four years.
After finishing everything, everyone will rest early on this day.
Because the real highlight of the entrance ceremony is on the second day of admission——
People call it "Holy Decision Day".
The origin of "Holy Decision Day" has to be traced back hundreds of years ago. At that time, the "Imperial Royal Knight Academy" was not actually called that, it was called "St. Yale Knight Mecha Academy"... At that time, the wolf clan began We have just begun our journey to conquer the interstellar world. As the most popular new combat method, "mecha" has attracted much attention.
Therefore, as a well-known institution of higher learning in the empire, in order to encourage students to develop their research on mechas, the college decided to conduct a test on mechas for freshmen at the beginning of the semester. Students can voluntarily sign up to participate - this test is divided into There are two methods: practical operation control and theoretical information knowledge. The former is a competition, and the latter is a heavy text.
To put it simply, the former fights in a mecha (self-prepared).
The latter took a pen and took a written test on the solutions to various difficult and complicated diseases of the mecha.
No matter whether civil or military, students who perform well in the assessment can first gain a certain exposure and be favored by the military for key training;
Secondly, you can be assigned to better classes for the next four years of study;
does not have a wealthy family, but rely solely on their strength to enter this college over the corpses of tens of millions of people, the most important thing - that is the scholarship.
The reason why "Holy Decision Day" is called this is because every minute and every second of this day may change a person's life, so whether he is an outstanding student from a poor family or a child born into aristocracy, I have been eagerly awaiting this day for a long time.
Bai Jue's seven brothers and sisters all graduated from this school, so he knew the rules of this school very well. On the day he received the admission notice, he did not hesitate to tick the "Holy Decision Day" appendix. He participated in the "Mecha Combat Drill" performance project... Regarding this, his father was very dissatisfied: As a noble young master, how can you be so rude?
Bai Jue smiled and made no excuse.
This moment.
When Bai Jue went home at night, when he opened the door of the aircraft, he saw at a glance another young man sitting upright inside. His blond hair was as meticulous as his well-ironed black school uniform...
Bai Jue climbed into the aircraft with a cold face and was not prepared to pay attention to him.
Faise turned around and rarely took the initiative to talk to him: "Master, I saw you chatting happily with the youngest son of the Rhine family today..."
"What the hell are you doing?" Bai Jue climbed onto the seat and said rudely.
He was really looking at him at that time. Damn, he looked like a pervert. He was so annoying.
Faced with Bai Jue’s lack of cooperation, Feise didn’t react at all and chose another topic: “Tomorrow’s ‘Holy Decision Day’——”
Now Bai Jue frowned instantly and became even more impatient. He interrupted Faisel directly: "If you don't have anything else to say to me, just shut up. Are you planning to dwell on this matter for the rest of your life?"
"...No," Feise explained patiently as if she was used to his harsh tone, "Miss Lilith asked me to ask you whether you want to use "Star-Lord" or "Snow Leopard" tomorrow? "
Bai Jue sat firmly in his position and hesitated for a moment after hearing the words——
In modern times, the price of a mecha is no longer as expensive as it used to be. Most top students born as civilians can also afford an ordinary mecha. Therefore, compared to the past when few people signed up for this project, Now the value of this project has become much higher——
Although there are still unfair factors.
For example, the most civilian students can afford is the "Star Track" series produced by one company in 2555, but Bai Jue uses the new "Snow Leopard" that was just launched at the end of last year. Comparing the two series of mechas, the hardware configurations are somewhat similar. The gap between Alto and Audi in cars...
"Star-Lord" is a classic series that is slightly more advanced than "Star Track". It is more convincing to the public than using new mechas to beat civilians, and it can also attract less attention.
Thinking of this, Bai Jue did not answer, but raised the corners of his lips, tilted his head and looked at the serious man beside him: "Which one do you think I should use?"
"I just adjusted the security system of Master's "Snow Leopard" last month. In contrast, the "Star-Lord" at home has not been adjusted for some days." Faisel bent down, lowered his eyes, and raised his slender fingertips. He came over to fasten the seat belt for Bai Jue, and at the same time said calmly in the routine tone he was used to, "For safety reasons, I personally suggest that the young master should use his own "Snow Leopard"..."
Bai Jue lowered his eyelashes slightly, looked at the gloved hand, and buckled his seat belt with a "click" sound.
At the same time, he felt the man's breath envelope him...it was still the light tobacco smell.
But I didn’t feel any discomfort.
Bai Jue remained motionless: "Those people who use "Snow Leopard" will make a big fuss about me. Thanks to you, I am already very famous today. "
As if he did not hear the sarcasm in the young man's words, the man's voice remained calm and steady: "Compared to the safety of the young master, those rumors are nothing compared to your hair - money and blood are also part of strength. This is an indisputable fact. There is no way People who have it will make a big deal about it.”
Bai Jue raised the corners of his lips and said "oh".
It seems that I am very happy to hear this——
Although no one knows exactly which part they are happy to hear.
The young man thought for a while, then bent down to pick up his schoolbag, and without hesitation, he took out a brand new school uniform hat, then took off the old one on his head and threw it into Faise's lap.
Faisel looked down at the hat that was thrown on his knees, and then at the boy who was humming a song and putting on his school uniform hat: "Master, didn't you forget your hat at home?"
Bai Jue showed no guilt or guilt at all: "I took the person who lied to you."
Faise: "..."
Bai Jue turned his head, his black and white eyes flashing: "Why, are you unhappy?"
"It's not true." Faisel put the hat with a hint of a boy's breath on his head, looked at him with a flawless smile, and said in a gentle tone, "Please don't be so naughty next time, Master."
There was a moment of silence.
“…Faise.”
"Um?"
"Some people started to spread rumors that you obeyed my words."
There was a moment of silence.
The smile in the man’s lake-blue eyes became clearer——
"That's the truth, Master, is there anything wrong?"
