Marvel's princess becomes king

Chapter 90 Stanford’s Book Collection

Stanford's two-month-one-semester model made Bella very uncomfortable. She had just started learning many things, and before she got into the groove, it was the end of the semester! Time was tight and there were many tasks, but with the bonus of her good looks, she gradually opened up in several clubs.

Fencing is a sport that ordinary students can't actually get into. In their free time, they can just play baseball or rugby. Who practices this stuff?

For example, Bella's roommate Heather, who also attended her competitions, is very good at using a -rpm chainsaw, but fencing? Sorry, I’ve never heard of it! According to the fierce woman, such a thin metal stick is far less effective than a chainsaw, has limited lethality, has many rules, and is not practical at all.

I can't figure out why the swordsmanship I inherited from the pirates has now been transformed and become synonymous with elegance. But Bella can also understand that this is similar to the saying in the ancient world. The more capable a person is, the more "blessed, pure and virtuous" he is.

Fencing is similar to equestrian. Calling it an aristocratic sport is a bit flattering, but a lot of people still regard this sport as elegance.

Many rich people who graduated from Stanford are sponsoring fencing clubs just to give themselves a label of cultivation.

rich! The fencing club is very rich!

After the game, organizers loudly announced a party.

It would be too unconventional not to attend a party here. Even Miss Barbara Morse, who was beaten to a pulp and looked depressed, could not refuse the invitation to the party.

The organizers borrowed a villa for the evening party.

It was already very cold in San Francisco in December, but the party scene was very hot. No one would come to the party wrapped in a cotton coat. Bella changed out of the metal clothes and fencing shoes she wore when fencing, and now wore a white knitted dress T-shirt and printed long skirt, and a pair of sandals at the feet.

After playing a casual game of snooker, she sat at the bar and watched a bunch of people having fun. From time to time, people came over to chat with her.

Bella was also selectively screening, saying a few words to those who were worthy of conversation, and ignoring those who were not.

She felt that she was slowly turning into a character like Victoria Hand, who was completely dependent on others, but it would not be enough if she did not do this. Making friends with people worth making friends would save her a lot of time. She did not want to spend time in interpersonal communication. I wasted too much energy on my studies, and I didn’t want to go into politics. I just found a relatively upper-class circle and got into it and that was it.

"Your swordsmanship is really good. Have you been practicing it since you were a child?" Barbara Morse, wearing a camisole and trousers, sat next to her and asked curiously.

It was said that the ancestors showed their spirits and passed on the skills to me through the spiritual sea? No one believed this, so Bella nodded.

"Yes, I have been practicing since I was a child. I have been practicing for many years."

The two chatted while drinking. The prohibition against drinking under the age of 21 has long been in vain. People in the United States who actually abide by this law are as rare as giant pandas. As long as they are not discovered, nothing will happen.

"Your parents are both police officers? That's great... My parents are both soldiers. Four generations of our family have been soldiers. I am the only one who is a woman..." Barbara was confiding The injustice in my heart.

Her family background is similar to Bella's. Charlie and Samantha actually served in the army and became sergeants after retiring.

Four generations of Barbara's family have been in the military, and they share a certain common language with Bella. To a certain extent, they are a different kind of 'military family'.

At the social level, the United States does not pay much attention to this class.

Sociological research reports believe that % of people are middle class, but here in Silicon Valley, they have their own definition of the middle class. They believe that only IT elites, professors, and doctors are middle class. This They are the pillars of society, not policemen or soldiers, they are still far behind!

The two didn't say it clearly, but they understood each other's meaning both inside and outside the words. Discrimination! Discrimination is everywhere in this country!

It is because of too much discrimination in all aspects that many people put this word on their lips.

Barbara kept talking to her, taking the opportunity to block those suitors. Bella had similar thoughts, and the two of them chatted.

Stanford's party was relatively well-behaved and stayed until ten o'clock when Bella got up and left.

After returning to the dormitory, she changed into casual clothes, rinsed her mouth repeatedly, and after confirming that there was no smell of alcohol, she carried her bag and headed to the library.

She showed the library administrator the borrowing signature given by a professor. After the other party confirmed it, he called two strong men to use a trolley to move an ancient book out of the library's warehouse for her.

It is a very large and thick book. It looks a bit like the Pirate Code in Pirates of the Caribbean. It is like a door panel and requires two people to lift it and pull it with a cart to take it out.

This is a treasured ancient book from the Stanford Library, called the Gutenberg Bible, which is the famous Forty-Two Chapter Bible... No, it's the Forty-Two Line Bible!

This is the Latin version of the Bible printed by Johnny Gutenberg using movable type printing in 1454. The entire book has a total of 1282 pages. Limited by the parchment technology at the time, the entire book is extremely thick, and it is completely useless to kill a person. question.

A total of 180 copies were printed at that time, but today there are less than 50 copies in existence. Such a precious ancient book cannot be borrowed even if it has the signature of the professor. The book cannot leave the library, and she can only read it in the library.

Although it is already ten o'clock in the evening, the library is still brightly lit and there are a large number of students studying here.

The book Bella read was a bit big and too old. Coupled with her beautiful appearance, occasionally a few students passing by would look at her in surprise, but no one thought it was wrong. The wind of freedom was blowing! Feel free to learn whatever you want.

Bella is going to spend a vacation studying the knowledge in this book, solidifying her foundation, and developing new psychic spells.

Her Latin proficiency was still in its infancy, and reading the Gutenberg Bible was a bit difficult, which required more time and effort.

When she encounters some problems, she will also ask the Wen family and his son via email. When it comes to knowledge in the Bible, the church must be the best, but it is really inappropriate for her, a heretic, to go to church, so the next best thing is to find a demon hunter. It’s not impossible to clear up doubts.

Demon hunters have a lot of exorcism knowledge at the level of "knowing it but not knowing why". They draw a magic circle, sprinkle salt, and then go crazy! Looking at it today, it is really rough, but there are also some tips worth learning from.

There is no need to think about social issues or calculating grades. Bella is studying all kinds of knowledge like crazy. Even Natasha refused when she asked her to go shopping. She plans to spend these days in the library until Christmas!
