<h4>Chapter 547: Song Jung’s Arrangement</h4>


    Song Jung was the head of the academy’s logistics department. A more crude way of putting it was that he was in charge of making food. However, that man suddenly turned around and started working at the research center, and it felt disorientating.


    Xiao Lin relied on Yu Mei’s guidance and entered the research center easily. Of course, he could not enter most of the ces there easily. In Yu Mei’s words, there were many secrets there. If he casually walked somewhere he was not supposed to, he might suddenly face a few Gold-ranked spells.


    When he saw Song Jung, he was doing a strange experiment as usual. God knew why the research center had provided him with such arge specialized research room. Xiao Lin did not have the right to enter, and could only patiently wait outside. Yu Mei did not want to meet Song Jung, and chose to wait at the entrance of the research center.


    Looking at Song Jung walk out in a white coat, Xiao Lin paused for a moment, smiling bitterly, “Why do I feel strange looking at you in those clothes?”


    Song Jung smiled. “Do I look even more handsome?”


    “I just feel weird looking at a weird person like you wearing such formal clothes. You look like a wolf in sheep’s clothing. No, that’s not right; like a monster in human skin. Ah, that doesn’t seem right either...”


    “... Enough. You don’t have to give more examples.”


    An exchange like that was normal for the two of them. After thest time on Earth, they had not seen each other for a long time, but that did not affect their familiarity with each other.


    Song Jung poured a colorful drink for himself and drank it like he enjoyed it before asking Xiao Lin if he wanted it. Even though it was fragrant, once he knew that it was a drink formed with blood from various animals, Xiao Lin rapidly shook his head.


    Song Jung shook his head regretfully, and after a moment of silence, said, “I guessed that the president would lead you here. Ah, that sly man; he knows that he and Yu Mei’s statuses were not enough to sway the military, and he decided to use me.”


    “Have you seen the dean?” Xiao Lin asked.


    “I saw himst month, but I haven’t seen him since he was sent to the special treatment room.”


    Xiao Lin could not tell anything from Song Jung’s neutral expression. He knew that Song Jung was quite friendly with the dean. After all, without the dean’s approval, Song Jung would not have had his position in the academy. However, Song Jung did not seem to be in any rush, which made Xiao Lin confused.


    “That old man might not be able to survive.” Song Jung seemed to guess his thoughts, and calmly continued, “Even the resurrection towers aren’t capable of everything. When the power of the soul is finished, resurrection towers can’t help at all. The funny thing is, this method of killing us was not invented by the natives, but our own people.”


    “Who exactly wanted to kill the dean?” Song Jung’s answer had anticipated Xiao Lin’s fears, and he asked in shock and anger.


    “We’ve actually found the assassin earlier on; it was an orc and human hybrid. However, he killed himself when he was found. Of course, everyone knows he was just a sad pawn. As for who the chessmaster was, it’s no longer important. The old man has made too many enemies in his life, and too many people want him dead, so even he probably could not guess who it was.”


    Song Jung sighed sadly. “Actually, the dean already knew of this oue from the day he was attacked, but he concealed his condition and tried to arrange everything that would follow his death, including the transition of power. Right, that included your monthly examination as well.”


    “The monthly examination was arranged by the dean?”


    “That’s right, if not for him, even those of them in the military would not dare do so. He wanted you to temporarily avoid this storm because, as the power transitioned, even if no one dared to touch the dean, the dean couldn’t guarantee the safety of those around him.”


    “It’s a pity he did not expect the examination to have been tampered with. We almost died.”


    “No, he expected that.” Song Jung’s expression was weird, but did not exin. “Astrology is a mystical branch of magic... The result was not bad–Ibeiya bing the queen was the best result. Ibeiya is independent from Dawn Academy, and cannot be tampered with by the military. She’s also within your control.”


    “Hey hey hey, what do you mean within my control...”


    “I know how much of a pedophile you are, you don’t have to hide it.” Song Jung shot an encouraging look at Xiao Lin.


    “Let’s continue discussing the dean; is there anything I can do?” Xiao Lin said helplessly.


    “He wants to see you again as well. Let me arrange it.” Song Jung stopped joking around. That man was more serious when talking about the dean.


    Xiao Lin’s time was quite tight. Since that defensemander that became the new dean had restricted him, he could only stay in Dawn City until the day ended, and even that little time had been fought for by the president and Yu Mei. After that day, even if he did not leave, he would be forced into the spatial carriage.


    Once he knew of the old man’s power, Xiao Lin could not help but worry if Song Jung could get it done, which was why he did not mention his request, but in the end, it was Song Jung who brought it up.


    Song Jung did not take off his white coat. He first had Xiao Lin wait on the spot, and went out to get things done. After forty minutes, Song Jung hurried over. He was still empty-handed, but the difference was a blue badge in front of his chest.


    They met Yu Mei when they left the research center. Song Jung was not familiar with Yu Mei, and rejected bringing more people to see the dean. Yu Mei had been unhappy with it, but she immediately had a look of shock when she saw the badge on Song Jung’s chest. She did not even snap out of her shock after Song Jung brought Xiao Lin away.


    Xiao Lin quickly saw Song Jung’s power, and understood that all his concerns had just been a waste of effort.


    The dean had been ced in a special treatment room. Over there, the deterioration of his soul could be dyed to the maximum, even if it still could not stop the loss of his life. Outside of the treatment room was the strictest guard in Dawn City’s history. Xiao Lin could even hear the low rumble of a dragon in the distance.
