Chapter 127 Dwarf
"You want to build a house? I mean, although dwarves like to build, there is no need to find them if you just want to build a small house. They may not be satisfied with such a small project and dig a three-hundred-meter-deep maze under your house." Antonio advised rich girls like Lilith not to have money nowhere to spend. Wouldn't it be better to come to his store more often when she has time?
"Please try to help me contact them first." Lilith still insisted, "It's not a small house, it's the competition venue."
"Competition?" Antonio looked at Lilith suspiciously, wondering what new ideas this little girl was thinking of.
"Well, it's a new competition planned by the academy." Lilith nodded. "Of course, whether this competition can be successfully held depends entirely on your connections. You must also hope that Goletia Academy will get better and better, right, Teacher Antonio?" Lilith looked at the little old man in front of her with admiration, her eyes full of expectation and trust.
Antonio looked at the little girl who was looking at him with her fists clenched over her heart, then looked at the opened wine barrel in his hand, and sighed - Daisy was right, free things are indeed the most expensive.
……
"Have you watched the duel training of the seniors? Oh my god! It's amazing! It turns out that magicians and guardians can cooperate to this extent! I never thought about it!" In the Rose Building, Lulu excitedly shared with everyone what she had seen and heard in the past few days, and everyone couldn't help but show their curiosity and yearning.
"Everyone is preparing seriously for the competition. After all, this is the first time we have such an opportunity." Winnie smiled and handed over a thick stack of registration letters. "I think the registration date can be advanced. Catherine, almost all the seniors in the three grades who can form a team of ten have signed up."
"There are also some people who are used to being lone wolves. They have come to me many times, hoping to change the rules of the game. Now I see them all avoiding me." An unfamiliar guardian in the student union complained.
"Next time you can tell them that no matter how strong a single soldier's combat capability is, it is meaningless. Only coordinated combat can bring about a leap in strength and share pressure and risks." Catherine took the registration form with a smile and said as she flipped through it, "Moreover, when a team overcomes numerous difficulties and achieves its goals together, the joy and glory brought by this common victory is also difficult to match by individual combat."
She gathered the registration forms in her hand and said, "Thank you all for your hard work. The registration stage has been completed. Next is our competition venue..." She stopped and turned to look in the direction closest to the door. The blonde girl pretended to write and draw seriously on her notebook, unaware that everyone's eyes had turned to her, watching her slack off.
"...Lilith." Hannah couldn't bear it and reminded the vice president who was concentrating on drawing the kitten.
"Ah?" Lilith looked up at this time and was shocked when she met everyone's eyes.
"Aha, is it over?" Lilith smiled awkwardly.
"Lilith, Catherine is talking about the competition venue. You took on so much responsibility, but there hasn't been any movement so far. Are you just going to use a training ground to fool everyone?" Angel found an opportunity and immediately began to attack this incompetent vice president. This position should be given to her. If she were the vice president, she would be able to assist Catherine better than Lilith!
"It's still early for the game..." Lilith laughed.
"What do you mean early? Even if it's just to build the stands for watching the game, you should have started the work. There are already nearly 2,000 new Light Guardians this year. Do you want to let everyone trample on you?" An Qi insisted. "Do you still think that money can create miracles? Don't ruin Catherine's hard work because of you!"
"Angel, I believe Lilith has her own plan." Catherine said calmly. "I just want to talk to Lilith about the competition design. We have been sitting for too long. Can we go for a walk?"
"Of course, of course." Lilith quickly closed the paper and pen, destroyed her own sketch, and followed Catherine out of the rose garden.
"Don't worry too much." As soon as they came out, it was Catherine who spoke first to comfort them, "The competition is to train everyone's teamwork ability. Whether there are spectators is actually secondary."
"I've actually tried to find one, but there's no suitable one for now..." Lilith was also a little distressed. She would look for Teacher Antonio again at the weekend. If that didn't work out, Scott could be used...
"There's still time. Besides, it's not impossible to use the training ground in the end. Anyway..." Catherine's eyes flashed, "I have already designed the content of the competition."
"Wow, can you tell it in advance? I promise not to tell anyone else." Lilith immediately became interested. She avoided several students who were running quickly beside her and came close to Catherine and asked.
"No." However, the princess flatly refused.
"Ah, I don't know how to reveal the questions." Lilith pouted, but didn't hesitate and gave way to a few students who ran over.
The two of them walked slowly like this. Catherine rarely had such a quiet and relaxing moment recently, and she was too lazy to talk. Lilith seemed to sense Catherine's mood and also quieted down, aimlessly observing the various students in the school, guessing whether they were magicians or guardians.
"Huh? Why are they all running in the same direction?" Lilith was watching and suddenly realized something was wrong. All the students, regardless of their grade, followed the crowd forward, whispering to each other, with excitement and curiosity on their faces.
Catherine paused when she heard this and nodded, "It seems so."
"Let's go and take a look too!" It was obvious that some big gossip was happening. How could Lilith bear to miss such a thing? Her eyes immediately lit up. She grabbed Catherine's hand and walked in the direction with the most people. As a result, they walked all the way to the direction of the academy training ground.
There are many training grounds in Goletia Academy, for different grades and subjects. This one is located deep in the hinterland, close to the stone hut where Lilith chose the sword for training. When she and Catherine arrived, a large number of people had gathered. Everyone stood at the edge of a training ground, whispering excitedly with the people next to them.
“This is my first time seeing you!”
"Me too! Me too! It's actually true!"
Lilith listened casually and became even more curious. She pulled Catherine around the training ground for most of the circle and finally found a gap where no one was. Lilith hurriedly pulled Catherine in and looked inside the field.
Antonio was sitting on the ground, drinking happily with his friend next to him. I don't know what the two of them said, but they burst into laughter at the same time. Antonio's friend stood up excitedly and patted Antonio on the shoulder.
"That's..." Catherine's tone was uncertain. She rarely showed her emotions in public. But the old man with a red goatee was only as tall as Antonio when he stood up!
That was a dwarf who had disappeared in Goletia, or in Gaia, for nearly a thousand years.
