"Across from him is Professor Kosk of the School of Applied Archeology..." The professor of the Department of Archeology seemed to have lost all his hair due to day and night hard work, and he had a big bald head.The clothes on his body are very simple, even shabby, and he is out of tune with the teachers and students who are obviously well-off around him.

"Engineering is poor for three generations, and archaeology ruins a lifetime."

Roy thought about it.

"Wandering on the lawn is Lecturer Lot Letterman from the Seminary..." Linus paused, his expression suddenly turned awkward.

Roy followed his gaze—the handsome lecturer, about 40 years old, was staring intently at the waist-hip curve of a certain female student. The female student was holding an oil painting board, with snow-white skin and a delicate face.

"Cough, cough, he's probably thinking about the body proportions of the statue of Goddess Melitelli, forget it, don't mention this bastard!"

The scholar led the witcher quickly through the labyrinth of hedges and alleys. They passed a boxy building towering over the canal, with a slightly rich mixture of hydrogen sulfide, alum, and quicklime. passed it on.

"The teaching building of the Alchemy Department conducts a large number of experiments every day to study various chemical reactions." Linus Pete glanced at the chic building, "It is full of unpleasant and pungent smells, which greatly affects The air quality of College Island may still endanger the health of teachers and students of the college."

The bald man moved his nose and shook his head. As an expert in alchemy, he held the opposite view, "It will never endanger your health."

Then rubbing his chin, he said with great interest, "Just judging from the smell of the materials, the technology of the alchemy department is very different from our school. If you have the opportunity, you must talk to the teachers and students of the alchemy department."

"That group of people are all workaholics, and they have never been out of the college building. It is difficult to meet them." The scholar said worriedly, "But if the masters talk to this group of guys, you might as well help me and ask them what they are doing. What? I've always been worried, but suddenly one day, Academy Island was blown to pieces."

Everyone smiled and left the Alchemy Department, and passed the mansion where the Medicine and Herbology Department was located. The alley leading to the teaching building was crowded with female students wearing unique light green cloaks.

In the crowd, a ten-year-old girl with dark red short hair reaching the ears caught Roy's attention. She has a slightly upturned nose and a pair of hazel-colored cheerful eyes. She is slender and has her hands behind her back. Humming nursery rhymes leisurely and melodiously.

Shani

Age: 11

Gender: Female

Status: Freshman at Oxenfurt Medical College

"Xia Ni, she's only 11 years old... At this point in time, she actually appeared in Oxenfurt Medical College, she really is a young genius!" Roy suddenly remembered that this world is not as small as it used to be. The brutal way of entering higher schools, but another set of student selection system that is completely opposite.

For a well-known university like Oxenfurt, the primary criterion for admission is money. The expensive tuition dissuades [-]% of the prospective students, and the lucky ones with outstanding talents are another matter.

He considered whether to go over and say hello to the future doctor and Geralt's confidante,

"Who is Shani?" Cantila heard the muttering of the witcher, her big gray eyes were full of inquiry,

"Oh, I recognized the wrong person!" Roy looked away, fooled the past, and temporarily put the matter on hold.

On the other side, Serrit suddenly interjected, "Mr. Linus Pete, I have always been curious about which department is the most famous at Oxenfurt College? For example, Imperial College of Nilfgaard has the most outstanding Department of Military Theory. .”

"Well——" the scholar pinched the sparse stubble on his chin, a trace of nostalgia flashed in his eyes, "a few decades ago, my Department of Natural History was the most famous..."

"Then the School of Narrative and Poetry, the School of Medicine...in recent years..."

The scholar suddenly looked embarrassed, "In recent years, the most popular school is the School of Espionage and Applied Destruction Technology."

"Specialize in the production of warmongers and spy chiefs?" Serrit raised his eyebrows.

"How many of you have heard of it? It is a semi-independent academy, specially set up by our King Vizmir II."

Linus Peet sighed, "He has corrupted the purely academic atmosphere of Oxburgh College with money and power."

Roy listened thoughtfully. As far as he knew, during the Third Northern War a few years later, everyone at Oxenfurt University was sent to the battlefield by Radovid, except for the useless teachers and students of the Department of Philosophy. .

"It's like a pot of delicious food mixed with stinky dead rats and flies!" The scholar cursed viciously into the air, and then shrank his shoulders, "Grandmasters, don't you want to ask the second Vizmir?" Are you going to sue me?"

"First of all, we have to meet His Majesty the King of Redania, who is always busy."

……

"Department of Medicine, Department of Alchemy, Department of Technology, Department of Poetry, Seminary... Where are we going next?" A group of people walked out of the most prosperous area of ​​the college and continued towards the secluded corner.

"Next is the most exciting part!" Linus Pete's dark and small eyes lit up, "I am going to take a few of you to visit the place where I work, and besides Pete's long octopus, you will also see many rare species."

"Mr. Pete, do you study the history of Redania, in the Historical Archives?" the little boy asked on tiptoe.

"Little girl, what I study is not the history of the country but the natural history, the evolution process of the natural ecosystem from the celestial sphere to the present." The scholar touched the boy's head and explained patiently.

Fliers took off his sunglasses and reminded seriously, "Professor Pete, Karl is a boy."

"Oh, sorry about that, he looks so handsome!"

"Natural history, can you be more specific?" The boy blushed, tilted his head, and asked in confusion, "What is the use of this job?"

"Haha, the purpose?" The professor pondered for a moment, "Probably to balance the entire natural ecology."

Carl glanced at his teacher. He remembered that the other party also mentioned this word, and ecological balance is still a crucial section in the main textbook "Biology" for demon hunters.

Walking in front of a group of people, the professor said with some emotion, "This world needs balance, especially the balance of species. Humans, animals...every species has its natural enemies, and natural enemies have other natural enemies. This forms a perfect cycle. . If any one of these links goes wrong, it will lead to the extinction of many species."

"And I am committed to investigating and discovering endangered species, protecting their survival and reproduction, and maintaining ecological balance."

"This sounds like a druid's theory." Oakes paused and asked, "Does the protection you mentioned also include the imported species after the convergence of the celestial spheres?"

"Why not?"

Everyone had weird expressions. As a monster killer, they couldn't agree with Pete's remarks.

Linus Pete stopped suddenly, and everyone realized that they had moved away from the crowd and walked under a huge spruce tree. A building with green camouflage walls appeared in front of them, square and square. There are no windows to be seen on the side, except for some warehouses with fully closed ventilation holes.

"We're here." Linus Pete took out a bunch of keys from his pocket.

"What is this?" Roy pointed to a row of huge round wooden barrels half a person's height beside the outer wall of the warehouse, and couldn't help wrinkling his nose. He smelled a strong smell of blood.

"Food, but it's not for us... Masters, push a bucket per person, do you do me a favor?"

The professor took out the key, and asked Jiajia with a solemn face, "Follow me in later, relax, keep quiet, move as gently as possible, and don't do anything without my order... and the weapons must be put away. , can it be done?"

"Rare animals, powerful and sensitive, are the monsters in your mouth."

……

"We usually only kill evil wild monsters." Lei Suo said in a deep voice.

Several people exchanged eye contact for two seconds and nodded.

Then he lifted the lid of the wooden barrel curiously, and suddenly a strong and pungent smell came out, the smell of fish, the bloody smell of fresh raw pork, a whole barrel, hundreds of pounds of fresh meat stained with blood piece……

Chapter 4 Rare Zoo

"crunch-"

Linus Pete slowly pushed open the heavy iron door, and a strong scent of grass and trees, as well as the unpleasant body odor of animals and livestock, came out from the crack of the door.

A square warehouse appeared in front of everyone, much larger than it looked from the outside, surrounded by rich green, like a pocket primitive jungle:

The ground is thick humus paved with dead branches and leaves. There are sawtooth ferns in good growth condition, raspberries full of red fruits, green artichokes, elephant grass as tall as a person, and a large number of medicinal plants. Among the ones that the witcher can recognize are sweetspot, crow's eye, sage, datura root, and many rare herbs grow there.

Vibrant plants are reflected in the ponds. Several ponds are scattered in the corners, dyed yellow-green by algae and duckweed, and water lilies sway pink in them.

Something seemed to be aware of this group of uninvited guests at the bottom of the water, and it swam back and forth, creating thrilling ripples.

These are just the bottom ecology.

The taller Metasequoia tree stretches its branches and spreads its fresh light green canopy, which enriches the upper half of the space, shelters the ecological circle at the bottom, and leaks just the right amount of light——

The warehouse is not completely closed, the ceiling at the top has been peeled off in half, and the bright sunlight shines in, filtered by crystals and iron sand nets, nourishing the creatures in the warehouse.

The lush bushes are not monotonous, winding vines hang their long and soft bodies on the treetops, occasionally dotted with green mistletoe... sparrows and woodpeckers are chirping on the branches, fluttering from one branch to another .

Suddenly, there was a creaking tremor in the elephant grass under the big tree.

"Quiet..." Linus Pete urged in a low voice, stretching his arms and bowing his knees.

Everyone's heart trembled, imitating his movements, trying to lower their center of gravity.

Then a strange-looking animal emerged from the elephant grass and came into everyone's sight.

The first second they saw it clearly, the demon hunters instinctively tightened their bodies, pinched the hilt of the sword, and Oakes even prepared to cast the seal.

What an ugly species!

Its body shape is like an enlarged version of an ostrich that has been stripped of its feathers. It is about one and a half tall when standing. The eyes on its face are as small as black rice grains. Crooked teeth, sharp as a razor.Thick and yellowish stinky saliva dripped from the corner of his mouth, with minced blood and flesh.

Its skin was pale, rough like a lizard, covered with tough horny skin, and the three hooks and claws on its feet shone coldly like sickles.

The arms are a pair of translucent wings with skin membranes, and a tapered tail full of venomous thorns is dragged behind.

As soon as it got out of the grass, its indifferent and cruel eyes swept over everyone, as if it felt nervous seeing the strange figure, it suddenly let out a piercing scream like a file.

The boy couldn't help covering his ears tightly.

The four big men held down the hilt of the sword.

The murloc in the hood grabbed the hair on the back of Roy's head angrily.

The latter's eyes became deep,

……

"Shh-"

Roy saw a warning sign, the silver sword suddenly came out of its sheath, and Cantila clasped the bowstring like a female leopard, showing her tiny white teeth, ready to go!

Linus Pete hurriedly persuaded, "Listen, masters, don't get excited, put all your weapons back! With me here, it won't hurt anyone!"

The demon hunters were silent for a moment, and they unanimously applied the Kunen seal, and then backed away.

"Sorry, professional habits, I hope you understand, but are you sure it won't take the initiative to attack?" Lei Suo questioned.

"I raised it with my own hands, of course I know its temper! As long as you are honest and don't take the initiative to provoke, everything will be easy..." Linus Pete said confidently, with the palm of his right hand facing it, gently Slowly swinging down, making a comforting movement, his small eyes did not blink, "Baby Jacques, your favorite food is here..."

The hand on the opponent's back hooked towards them.

The demon hunter understood, and immediately took out a piece of fresh meat from the big wooden barrel and threw it over.

The fresh meat drew a wonderful parabola in mid-air, and fell on the grass in front of the monster in the next second.

The monster is motionless...

It wasn't until Linus Pete picked up the fresh meat that the monster took the food in his hand. With a click of its white teeth, it bit the meat in half, chewed it two or three times, and swallowed the fist-sized piece of meat Lowering the throat, the small eyes looked over again, full of longing, but without the initial anxiety and hostility.

"Jacques, you are such an obedient boy...Everyone, give me some more meat."

……

"Damn it!" Oakes watched the scholar feed the meat while stroking the monster's neck, with a surprised expression on his face. "I've never heard of this thing... Pterodactyl is still a fork-tailed dragon, and it can be artificially raised."

"Cold-blooded animals like crocodiles and snakes are difficult to feed well." Fliers agreed, holding his apprentice's trembling body.

"I don't think it's a pterodactyl. It should be a bipedal wyvern. Look at the shape of its two claws." Serrit raised the opposite opinion.

"Pay attention to the wings. Its wings are not large enough to support long-term flight, but it is no problem for gliding. So it is a gliding lizard, or dragon lizard, which is more terrifying than you think." Lei Suo got off with fear in his eyes. conclusion.
