I upgraded and added points in the Holy Inquisition

Chapter 619 Chapter 621 It’s too uncomfortable to chat like this

In fact, Lloyd knew a little about this entertainment street. Many girls, including Metis, had tried to invite him to play there.

But I have been in the college for almost two years, and this is my first time here.

The street was just as expected, not too big or too long, and very busy with people coming and going. There were not only many students but also many faculty and staff. It had a very urban feel, and was similar to the commercial street outside every university.

There are just a few more shops that would not be seen in front of an ordinary university, such as clothing stores and jewelry stores.

In theory, transactions can be made with credits or with worldly property, but apart from Lloyd, I'm afraid no one would waste precious credits on such things.

Infected by the hustle and bustle of the stock market, and looking at the beautiful and lovely Metis beside him, Lloyd couldn't help humming a tune from Earth.

"Hmm? This melody is..."

Metis asked curiously.

"It's a tune from my hometown, called something like "Fair"? I think it's "Astarte Fair"?"

Lloyd asked casually, then noticed a milk tea shop on the side of the road and quickly walked over with Metis.

"What flavor do you want to drink? I'll treat you."

"Eh? I'll just be like you..."

Metis spoke softly, her pretty face quickly blushed, and she couldn't help but start to think wildly.

Going shopping together, drinking milk tea together, these are things that only couples do, right?

Anyway... that's what the love magazine said...

Hehe, I'm sorry, Viya. Today, let me, a bad woman, take advantage of you a little bit, okay?

She was secretly happy in her heart, but Lloyd's next words made her feel like she was falling into an ice cellar.

"Hello, please give me two cups of black pepper hot and sour milk tea with extra fruit pulp."

Not only Metis, but even the student clerks in the milk tea shop were dumbfounded...

"This...this classmate...I'm sorry, I don't think I heard it clearly?"

"Black pepper, hot and sour, with extra pulp."

Lloyd repeated it patiently.

"Ah...but we don't have black pepper hot and sour milk tea in our store..."

The clerk was confused and embarrassed at first, but Lloyd immediately said:

"Then let's think of a way. I can pay with credits."

Upon hearing this, the other party immediately became excited.

"Okay, please wait a moment!"

Then he rushed back to the kitchen and shouted excitedly:

"There's a super handsome guy outside who wants to drink black pepper hot and sour milk tea and is willing to pay with credits. Everyone, think of a solution!"

Metis stood beside Lloyd, looked up at the price list, and his dark golden eyes widened a little. He shook Lloyd's arm and whispered:

“It’s a big loss to pay with credits…”

Because credits have no decimal points, the lowest score is 1 credit, which can be exchanged for a bottle of real healing potion or spiritual power recovery potion at the medical department, but here it can only buy a cup of milk tea. It's almost like a scam.

He didn't have any money on him, right? So he said he would pay with credits?

Metis thought for a moment and then said tactfully:

"How about I treat you?"

But Lloyd didn't appreciate it at all, and said nonchalantly:

"Hmm? No no, I have more credits than my bank balance."

Metis was stunned when she heard this...

While waiting for the milk tea to be made, several other girls came into the store one after another. When they noticed Lloyd in front of the counter, their eyes suddenly lit up. They were no longer interested in milk tea and hurriedly came up to chat with him, pushing the petite Metis aside.

"My classmate, you are so pretty, can I get to know you?"

"Hmm? I'm Lloyd from the Distortion Department. Welcome everyone to apply for our Distortion Department."

"Pfft~ Such a cute self-introduction, but...does our academy have a subject called [Distortion]?"

"Wait! You are Lloyd? Wow! You are just as handsome as the legend on the message board. Hehe, are you here to buy milk tea? Then I will treat you."

Medi, who was pushed aside, became extremely anxious. She used her small stature to get back to Lloyd's side and grabbed his arm regardless of anything, as if to claim ownership.

Only then did people notice the existence of this short person, and when they looked at the height difference between Lloyd and her, some people started laughing.

"Mr. Lloyd, is this your sister? She's very cute."

"Nonsense! I'm his...his..."

Metis opened her mouth to argue, but found that she didn't know how to introduce her identity.

There was no other choice but to grit my teeth and say:

"His colleague!"

"Colleague? What a strange way of putting it... Isn't this a college?"

"Wait a minute, I suddenly remembered, Lloyd... No, he is not a student anymore, he should be called Professor Lloyd!"

Upon hearing the title of 'professor', the overly enthusiastic girls quickly took a few steps back, their sexual interest in Lloyd instantly turned into awe, and then they apologized for their verbal offense.

He even began to be in awe of Metis who was standing beside him, and no longer dared to secretly laugh at her short stature. It was obvious that he had misunderstood and thought that she was also a professor.

Now Lloyd finally understood why the former dean was so plain-looking but still single...

Fortunately, at this moment, the waiter from the kitchen appeared in time with two cups of strange and curious milk tea and placed them in front of Lloyd.

"Sorry for the wait. This is the black pepper hot and sour flavor with extra fruit pulp milk tea you ordered."

"Thank you."

Lloyd picked up the professor's manual, exchanged it with the other person, then picked up the milk tea, handed a cup to Metis, and prepared to leave.

But before leaving, he did not forget to add:

"Everyone, remember to apply for our [Distorted] Department. There are fewer people, more credits, and looser grading. It's awesome!"

After saying that, he couldn't wait to take a sip of the milk tea.

Hmm~ it tastes unexpectedly good?

The flesh is also very substantial, almost half a cup.

Metis beside him looked at the dark cup of milk tea with a layer of chili oil floating on the surface, and took a sip with the determination as if he was drinking pesticide.

(>﹏<)

Wei Ya, you are amazing! Really, really amazing!

She expressed her sincere admiration for Weiya in her heart.

The other girls in the store looked at the milk tea in the two people's hands and expressed their sincere admiration for Metis.

"As expected of a professor from Mizzi-Katok, he can even handle this kind of taste..."

"Damn it, why is such a good-looking man a professor at the college?"

"Professor, it's not impossible, right? It's just that it might be very difficult... Let's try to adapt first. Hello, can you give me a cup of the same milk tea you had just now?"

........................

After this little episode, Lloyd and Metis finally came to the love fortune-telling shop she mentioned which was very accurate.

It was open for business, but there were a lot of people queuing in front of the door, and they were all couples, either holding hands or hugging each other.

Seeing this, Metis raised his head and secretly glanced at Lloyd. The hand that was not holding the milk tea was a little restless, and she secretly moved closer to Lloyd's empty hand, pretending to casually touch the back of his hand with her fingertips.

But at this moment, a mature woman's voice came from the fortune-telling shop:

"Students, please stay a moment longer. I must first receive a more important guest. Professor Lloyd, please come in."

When the people who were still queuing heard that a professor was coming to visit, and that was the currently very popular Professor Lloyd, they immediately took the initiative to step aside, making way for Lloyd, and then watched Lloyd lead Metis in with eyes full of awe and curiosity.

The interior is decorated in a very 'mystical' style, with classic incense, candles, mirrors and crystal balls. On the wooden table covered with a red tablecloth, there are also a dozen cards neatly arranged.

A female fortune teller wearing a hood that covered her face sat at the back. She motioned for Lloyd to sit down, then stroked the crystal ball in front of her and said:

"I know your intention and am willing to help you to the best of my ability."

"Thank you, Professor Mirella."

Without the other party introducing himself, Lloyd directly gave the other party's name.

This was very magical. There was no low, fragmented mumbling, and no subtitles appeared in front of him. The other party's name and identity naturally appeared in Lloyd's mind.

It feels like I'm not instilling information into people through words or other means, but rather awakening other people's memories of me through some mysterious means.

Lloyd originally planned to use [Probe] to check the quality of this professor, but before he could activate the skill, the general situation of the other party automatically emerged in his mind.

The eighth-level [Mystic Scholar] has an average of about 5000 in four attributes, which is considered to be relatively weak among the eighth-level ones.

Only the item [Inspiration] was at the '? ? ' level, which meant it exceeded the number of 10250.

This was also the first time that Lloyd came into contact with the extraordinary system of [Mystics]. Like [Ancient Wizards], it was an exclusive system of Mitzkatok, but it was far rarer than [Ancient Wizards]. Lloyd had only heard Dean Hazlade mention it briefly before and had never seen it with his own eyes.

This is the first time I have seen the system of [Mystic Scholar]...

Lloyd was going to say this.

Unexpectedly, the other party said before he had this thought:

"It's not as mysterious as you think. As you can see, our fortune-telling shop is quite popular, but I've never seen you come here before."

Then she changed the subject and said:

"Medis, could you please wait outside?"

Metis immediately had a strange expression on her face and nodded.

She was still hesitating whether to go out and avoid it, and she had an odd feeling that someone had guessed her thoughts.

After Metis left, Lloyd still had no time to speak before he heard the other party continue to say:

"Please relax. In the previous review meeting about you, our Department of Mysticism chose to support you... Don't worry that we will be beaten. With Professor Lawrence and Professor Latio here, we have an absolute advantage."

"This is not to pry into your consciousness. You should know that no one can do this, so this is just some flexible use of divination, which allows me to know in advance what you want to say."

Professor Milela answered all the questions Lloyd was going to ask in one breath, and even answered some questions that Lloyd hadn't thought of yet, so she gave answers in advance.

Oh my god, this charlatan is too weird, right?

Lloyd complained in his heart.

The other party did not respond to his words in advance, because Lloyd did not intend to say this in front of others.

From this, it can be seen that this is indeed not "mind reading" or "spying on consciousness", but really knowing in advance what Lloyd wants to say.

So Lloyd didn't even need to speak, and he heard the other side say:

"The Engineering Department's [Miracle] is not a [Miracle] in the ordinary sense, but that great creation can indeed be called a miracle. You want to find it back, which is good, but it is also difficult..."

"Let's go to another place so that the students outside don't have to wait too long. I can't keep occupying my students' seats."

Just as he finished speaking, a male fortune teller dressed in the same way suddenly appeared from the back of the fortune-telling shop, with a neat beard showing under his hood. He nodded at Lloyd and Professor Milela.

It seems that under normal circumstances, this professor would not come to the street to do love fortune-telling, but he already knew in advance that Lloyd would come back today, so he came here specially to wait for him.

[Mystic Scholar], he really has something.

Lloyd was about to ask where he was going to move to, but before he could open his mouth, the other party spoke first:

"Let's go back to our Occult Department. You should know where it is."

Isn’t this way of communication too uncomfortable?

Lloyd cursed in his heart.

This time the other party did not respond in advance.

He then opened a portal leading to the Department of Mysticism and followed the strange professor in.

The scene behind the door was not the dark, gloomy, and weird corner full of spider webs that Lloyd had imagined, but instead a beautiful natural park?

Nestled in the mountains and beside the water, there are well-tended small gardens everywhere, surrounding a sparkling lake in the center.

There are no tall wizard towers and spacious research institutes, but instead there are various divination huts with a slightly cartoon style. It does not look like a research institution, but rather has a different sense of fantasy and fairy tale?

"Yes, the more relaxed you are, the more accurate the results will be."

Professor Milela took the initiative to speak again.

Lloyd was going to ask if he could fish in the lake...

Lloyd actually found a small wooden dock by the lake, took out all the equipment he had carefully prepared, sat on the comfortable lounge chair he brought with him, sprinkled a handful of high-end bait into the water to make a nest, and cast out with his rod.
