Don't confiscate my identity as a human race

Chapter 297 - 285 Lanci is not tied up with Xiu Bao this time_1

The backstage screen seemed to have its sound muted.

The entire examination area fell into a deathly silence.

Then, an outburst of shock, exhilaration, and almost insane cheering pierced through the walls, echoing throughout the examination building, causing Gloria, who was watching from outside the screen, to feel a chill up her spine.

Gloria was now thoroughly convinced; the new Saint Heir was a man who brought entertainment value.

Although the Bishop of Hegemony has not yet publicly announced their Saint of Hegemony.

But if a man who has already been deemed as the Saint of Hegemony stands out so prominently in the Protoss Royal Magic Academy and stirs people’s expectations, only to falter at the crucial moment, or is even torn apart, it would undoubtedly be a disgrace to their Hegemony Branch.

Even Gloria, who is in the examination area, would feel a chill up her spine at the bounty of 130,000 Academy credits.

It should be enough to make all the students stray from the norm.

And anyone that the Saint Heir comes across in the barrier would become his enemy, using every means necessary to bring him down.

The ordinary rule protection might not be so effective in the possible scenarios to come, except for in classrooms with strong teachers enforcing the rules!

Many students may seize the opportunity to break the rules and try to claim the bounty.

After all, breaking the rules at worst just incurs a punishment from the teacher or deduction of a few hundred Academy credits.

When compared to 130,000 Academy credits, this consequence is nothing.

They have deemed it a risk worth taking, abandoning warrior ethics at crucial moments to hunt down Zestira by breaking the rules.

And there’s another staple mechanism in the bounty—

[For each other student that the person with the bounty makes leave, the total bounty will increase by 1%.]

No matter if the other students had intentions to attack, once their severe injuries caused by the bounty holder directly or indirectly, causing them to be unable to continue the exam, they would be sealed by the barrier, to be then taken away by the teachers, and their total bounty would increase as well.

Although students signed a detailed safety hazard notice upon admission, the school did not want anyone to die during the monthly exam period.

Ordinarily, each additional opponent the bounty holder defeats would only increase his bounty a little.

But the Saint of Hegemony, due to his outrageous base credits, would increase his bounty by thousands each time he defeated someone!

Even if the Saint of Hegemony could fend off a few, or a dozen students, this laborious twelve-hour period would be a war of attrition with no end in sight, facing increasingly more and stronger enemies!

"His desire to win is not strong, and I don’t expect him to accomplish much under the school’s rules. In whatever way, if he can protect Zestira until the exam concludes, he has already exceeded my expectations."

Sigrid said impassively, her perception of her Saint Heir was clear.

After all, they were fighting away from home, and the limitations were significant.

On the other hand, the Cat Boss hiding in the shadow was somewhat nervous.

Although it had not personally seen Lanci go all out in school,

every time Xi Bao and Tata chatted casually, they would say that once Lanci untied his moral restraint, he would do some crazy merit offerings, and even thought that the Lady Goddess would praise him.

Zestira looked at the door in front of them.

You couldn’t tell the specifics of the examination from the placard on the classroom door. After observing along the way, all you could guess was which department it might belong to.

"This seems to be part of the Beast Breeding Department, do you know anything about this, Master?"

Zestira asked with a hint of worry.

This was a marginal category.

Despite the fact that city’s magical beasts had been domesticated, they originated from the Demon World and were still somewhat ostracized by the people of Protoss.

And they were also quite dangerous.

"Those of us from the Demon World have a natural advantage in this regard, so no problem."

Lanci’s voice was full of confidence.

"Alright."

Zestira felt that since Lanci had entered the examination area, his self-perception seemed to have changed unconsciously.

"Zestira, keep a lookout for me."

Before entering the classroom, Lanci took a step forward into the door frame. He decisively took out the engraver’s knife and brush from his Portable Card Making Tool kit, as if he had planned to do so.

Zestira nodded and slightly shifted her position to the side, looking towards the end of the corridor.

Meanwhile, Lanci quickly modified the symbols on the door plaque.

"Done."

Upon Lanci’s end sentence, he opened the door and walked straight in.

Although it was hastily done, his skillful technique unwaveringly retained discrepency to an unbelievable level; at a glance, there were no issues.

Zestira looked carefully before entering the classroom after Lanci.

The symbol on the door plaque had been changed from [Beast Breeding Department – Difficulty Three]to [Cooking Production Department – Difficulty One].

Zestira: "?"
