Chapter 200 Behind the scenes
"You have to follow the rules, right?" Gothe raised his head and looked at the vice chairman.
"The ownership rights of the rune workshop are written in black and white."
He said word by word: "Let's put aside these, even if the rune workshop is an asset of the college, then you are not qualified to directly ask me for the secret order of the magic circle of the rune workshop."
"You do not represent the college."
The vice chairman was stunned.
He never expected that the civilian-born student in front of him could talk to him so calmly and rationally.
"I am the vice chairman of the college committee, why can't I represent the college?" Then, he came back to his senses and said angrily.
"Even if you are the vice chairman, you are not qualified to represent the college unless you can produce the college's documents." Gao De shook his head and was not frightened by him.
"Moreover," his voice gradually became louder, and he looked directly at the Vice Chairman, "Director He Xi has just left, and his body is still cold. As the senior leader of the college, the most important thing you should do now is not to take care of the affairs after your death, Director He Xi?"
His old man has not yet been buried, and you are so impatient to open his rune workshop, are you preparing to steal something? Goode's face was filled with anger and excitement.
Him Half of it was pretending. There were many rune department instructors in the corridor who came to learn that Director He Xi was ill. He needed to stand on the moral high ground in front of everyone, and the other half was his true feelings.
The rabbit dies and the fox is sad.
Although the tutors of the runes department were not very fond of the director who had gradually marginalized the runes department, they did not know why the vice chairman was so anxious to enter He Xi's rune workshop.
But the old man has not yet been buried, and the college is so "can't wait", which is a bit too inhumane no matter how you look at it.
The gazes they cast on the Vice Chairman also began to change slightly.
The vice chairman also noticed this strange atmosphere.
He indeed did not dare to go too far.
At least on the surface, you can’t go too far.
"Director He Xi has no relatives, no wife, no children, so the college will take care of his funeral."
He cast his gaze on the wooden door and said to Gothe and everyone on the corridor.
The strange atmosphere finally calmed down a bit after these words.
Gao De looked at the Vice Chairman indifferently and did not give him any room for maneuver. He said loudly: "Now, please go back first. As a student of Director He Xi, I will personally see him off for the last time."
Gothe watched silently as the old man's peaceful face was covered with white cloth and his thin body was wrapped. He bowed deeply to the old man's body.
The suicide note was written at the beginning of the year.
In the last days of his life, the old man wanted to devote all his time to the derivation of interference constants.
Under the circumstances at that time, the fact that he could still think of taking the time to write a suicide note can only mean that the old man has realized that his death is coming.
While listening to the countdown to death, he was calmly doing derivation calculations while still teaching himself.
What kind of moving spiritual state is this?
The old man was pushed out of the room with his body and cloth.
Gaode also walked out.
Outside the door, everyone in the corridor consciously stepped aside to make way for the old man's body to pass.
Gaode, as the old man's student, followed behind.
"It's just a magic circle. Even if you don't give the secret order, with the power of the academy, it will only be a matter of time before you open it." When passing by Donny Urser, a voice sounded in Gothe's mind.
【Messaging Technique】.
Gothe raised his head and glanced at Donny Urther indifferently.
The chief student of the rune department looked directly at Gothe with an expressionless face, but there was deep resentment in his eyes.
He used family channels to check Gothe and found out that he was indeed a guy with no background and just a little bit of luck.
Hence, he increasingly felt that the world was unfair to him.
Over the years, he has always been the most outstanding among all the students in the rune department.
In terms of qualifications, he is also the one with the best results.
Then, a country bumpkin who joined the college with a letter of recommendation, under the dean's intention, became a chess piece used to defeat He Xi and became a student of He Xi.
He Xi has not accepted students for a long time.
As the head of the Rune Department, even if Shel Ian is the dean, it is difficult to force He Xi to accept students openly, but Gao De entered the school with a recommendation letter from the former dean Gavin.
Leave aside his rights as a student with the highest treatment, He Xi could not refuse this student simply because of his relationship with the former dean.
But why can a country bumpkin really learn to understand runes?
Why can a pariah really be valued by He Xi?
Even asking this old man to leave all his inheritance to him?
Donnie doesn’t understand, and he doesn’t want to understand.
The old man is dead anyway.
Gaode also knows that if the academy wants to enter the rune workshop and get back the rune workshop, there will be countless ways.
Although the vice chairman's meaning today is not supported by any documents, it must represent part of the college's will, rather than his personal will.
In front of the academy, Gaode's power seemed too small.
But why are you so eager to enter the rune workshop, and don’t even want to do the superficial work?
Gaode lowered his head and fell into deep thought.
Gaode is not sure if anyone knows about the six basic rules of runes, but at least he is the only one who knows about the existence of interference constants.
It is not because of this. If the academy really knew the existence of the six basic rules of runes and believed in their correctness, the runes department and He Xi would not be so unpopular.
What's the reason?
The rune diagrams, information and rune workshops have all been around for a long time. The academy didn’t think much of them before, so there shouldn’t be such an urgency now.
The old man's words gradually emerged from Gao De's mind while thinking, and became more and more clear, so clear that some of the context behind them could be faintly seen.
He Xi is a third-level rune constructor.
He was able to travel to so many countries, build a huge rune workshop with his own hands, and study the six basic rules of runes without any pressure for so many years, all because of his status as a third-level rune constructor.
The wealth that this status can bring.
This old man's savings should be very abundant.
What exactly did he do that made him use up all his savings in just half a year?
A third-level rune builder who invested so much money in the last days of his life must have made something extraordinary.
The college, probably aware of the old man's movements, gradually discovered what the old man was doing.
rune construct Gothe gradually had the answer in his mind.
In addition to high-level rune constructs, what other things can make even the most powerful academies so impatiently "eat them out"?
I can't keep anything that He Xi left behind.
Gothe carefully combed through the details of this matter in his mind and came to this conclusion.
He is just a student of Sires Academy, a first-level mage who has just been promoted.
No matter what his identity is, he is just a small figure in front of the will of the upper class of the academy.
Furthermore, compared to the possible high-level rune constructions that the academy is currently focusing on, Gothe understands that the truly valuable thing should actually be the complete six basic rules of runes that He Xi finally deduced.
Gothe is not sure that if the rune workshop is really taken away, whether anyone can discover what the old man made from the massive data and realize the huge value contained in it.
But he didn't dare to gamble.
Because he understood that if this really happened, then the results of more than three hundred years of research by Jose would eventually be turned into medals of honor for others.
No one can refuse to change the name of "Newton" to one's own.
The six basic rules of runes must and can only be written with the name "José O'Kenley".
But facing the behemoth of the academy, what can I do?
It seems that no matter what you do, you are just a moth chasing the flame.
Gothe now understands the significance of the mages wearing college uniforms outside the rune workshop.
Of course he was not there waiting to inform him of the news that He Xi was ill.
Their meaning is to guard the rune workshop.
Prevent others from entering the rune workshop before the will of the upper class of the academy.
This other person now refers to Gao De.
Because after He Xi left, he was the only one who had the secret order for the magic circle in the rune workshop.
