Chapter 325 Goddess of the Magic Network
"Jiang Shuzhou! Outlandish clothing is not allowed at school!"
A voice, tinged with annoyance, rang out.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Shuzhou looked towards the podium.
The speaker was an ordinary-looking female teacher.
Jiang Shuzhou had long forgotten about this teacher, but his extraordinary memory as a high-level mage allowed him to recognize him.
This teacher, surnamed Li, was his high school homeroom teacher and was a gentle person.
"You... sigh, never mind, sit down, be more careful next time."
Teacher Li sighed, seemingly thinking of Jiang Shuzhou's family, and therefore did not pursue the matter further.
Jiang Shuzhou had some vague guesses.
This place is either an illusion or a dream.
However, Jiang Shuzhou is more inclined to believe it was a dream.
The main reason is that there are two types of illusions: one is an illusion constructed by reading other people's memories, which is an illusion created by others; the other is an illusion created by guiding others to fantasize.
In the illusion he creates, for various reasons, the subject is very likely to remain conscious.
Since creating a self-created illusion involves self-hypnosis from the beginning, the subject can only regain consciousness midway through, not at the start.
Furthermore, the generated illusion must be memorable, ideally so that people linger and are reluctant to leave, in order to achieve the purpose of confusing the enemy.
However, Jiang Shuzhou's situation clearly fits both types of illusions, and is actually quite similar to dream illusions.
Dream illusion was once a type of illusion, but this discipline is too vast. At the same time, with the study of dreams, many mages discovered that dreams can also become reality.
There was once a legendary mage who successfully transformed a dream into a small plane. Although the resources consumed could have created hundreds of such planes, he successfully resurrected hundreds of extinct potions.
They even created several non-existent potions, which caused a great stir at the time, leading many legendary mages to study dreams.
Unfortunately, dreams are too unpredictable, and even high-level mages have to be extremely careful when studying them. After all, there have been legendary mages in history who have been lost in their dreams.
Therefore, current research on dreams mainly focuses on illusion, because other knowledge is too dangerous.
Of course, as everyone knows, the more dangerous something is, the more it needs to be studied; this is the creed of the mages.
Jiang Shuzhou also has some research on dreams, but not much, mainly on protecting against illusions. After all, he has a lot of things to do now and doesn't have much time. In addition, dream-related research is best conducted in the mage tower, so that if something big happens, he can cover it up.
It's easy to distinguish dreams; just look at the people and objects.
Familiar figures in dreams are always very much in line with the dreamer's perception.
For example, Ms. Li is indeed gentle, but that's only towards Jiang Shuzhou. And if Jiang Shuzhou really wore strange clothes into the class, Ms. Li would definitely kick him out.
This is based on logical reasoning.
However, as we all know, dreams are illogical.
Teacher Li is designed to be strict with others but gentle with Jiang Shuzhou.
No matter how outrageous Jiang Shuzhou's behavior was, the teacher would only utter a curse and then choose to forgive him.
However, out of respect, Jiang Shuzhou did not test what Teacher Li would do if he "accidentally" caused someone else's death.
Anyway, other aspects can also be certified.
Jiang Shuzhou casually flipped open his textbook and then smiled with satisfaction.
Indeed, a person cannot dream of things they do not recognize.
Due to family reasons, Jiang Shuzhou has always been extremely perfunctory in his studies. As a result, he doesn't even know what's in the textbooks.
What's frustrating is that, since Jiang Shuzhou was a professor, the textbooks he read most often were those from the Mage Alliance.
and so……
"Class, please open your 'Detailed Explanation of Spells' to page 254. Today we'll be discussing..."
Jiang Shuzhou didn't know what he would learn in high school, but he certainly wouldn't learn magic, since this wasn't the Mage Alliance.
Clearly, this is a dream. However, what puzzled Jiang Shuzhou was that, as the owner of the dream and being awake, he should be able to control it. But no matter how hard he tried to imagine it, nothing happened in the dream.
More importantly, logically speaking, now that he's awake, the dream should have ended.
But the dream showed no signs of ending, and no one knew why.
However, Jiang Shuzhou soon found out.
In English class, Ms. Wang, the English teacher, was holding a book titled "Detailed Explanation of the Languages of Five Ethnic Groups" and explaining its contents with a serious expression.
The book "Detailed Explanation of the Five Languages" mainly covers the five major languages: Common Tongue, Dwarven Language, Demon Language, Elven Language, and Dragon Language. It is considered a required course for mages.
"Can anyone tell me what the most frequent word in the demon language is?"
Teacher Wang asked.
The audience was completely silent.
"Li Le, you speak."
Teacher Wang began the death-defying roll call.
"This... teacher, I don't know."
"The ones behind."
"I have no idea."
"And then!"
Soon a long line of people was standing in the classroom.
Why is it so hard for you to answer a single question?
Teacher Wang rubbed his forehead.
"I refuse to believe it! Let's answer one by one. If no one can answer, the whole class will stand up!"
"Jiang Shuzhou, you speak."
Teacher Wang pointed to Jiang Shuzhou.
"That's swearing."
Jiang Shuzhou almost lost his composure.
Teaching devil's language in English class? Seriously.
"You answered correctly. Look at them, and then look at you!"
Then, Teacher Wang began to teach the devil's language while cursing and swearing.
After all, there's nothing nice in the language of demons.
"Oh, by the way, I'll introduce a transfer student to everyone later. She's new here, so please give her a warm welcome."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Shuzhou frowned. He didn't recall having any transfer students in high school.
It seems that this transfer student is the variable.
"What? Male or female? Is it pretty?"
"Transferred schools?"
The students below the stage began to whisper among themselves and discuss the matter.
"Ahem, quiet down."
Teacher Wang coughed once, signaling the students below to be quiet.
He then nodded toward the door and said.
"Come in."
As Teacher Wang spoke, a strikingly beautiful girl with blonde hair and blue eyes walked in.
Jiang Shuzhou was taken aback. This face... it seemed familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before.
However, what the girl said next made Jiang Shuzhou completely lose his composure.
"My name is Mystra, and I'm from abroad. Please take care of me."
It's you! Mystra! How old are you? How dare you pretend to be young? You're probably more than ten times older than this whole class combined. How can you be so shameless?
Of course, what made Jiang Shuzhou even more uneasy was what Teacher Wang said next.
"It just so happens that Jiang Shuzhou is short of a deskmate. Mystra, you can sit next to him."
"Okay, teacher."
