Alice in the Land of Steam

Is Chapter 1218 hard to imagine?

Is Chapter 1218 hard to imagine?
Once the decision was made, the girls on Cloud Whale Island showed amazing action. Rorona was responsible for preparing building materials, the Stone Spirit Guards were responsible for construction, the Countess was responsible for supervision, Ovira was responsible for compiling teaching materials, and Saint Shallia and others were responsible for making the curriculum and arranging teaching content. The young people did not even have room to intervene in the whole process. In the words of Saint Shallia, “Lingge only needs to watch, and leave the rest to us.”

Although it’s well-intentioned, why does it sound like I’m being excluded?
The helpless young man returned to his previous idle state. At the invitation of Alice, who was also idle, he studied the game skills hard every day. Recently, he has improved the record of beating the genius player in the fighting game from three minutes to one minute, which is a huge improvement. This also made Metien always look at Alice with strange eyes, probably wanting to condemn the genius player for corrupting his brother. Unfortunately, Alice’s mental state has just improved. She is a vulnerable group on Yunjing Sky Island, which is equivalent to buying insurance for herself. Except for Saint Xia Liya, others really dare not yell at her.

They wanted to talk to their friends, but Xie Mi and Leticia were working hard and studying hard. Because Saint Xia Liya said that the two of them had to take the test that Yieta took, and if they failed, they would be “hehe”. They didn’t dare to ask what this “hehe” meant, but they were a little scared. For this reason, they could only reluctantly sacrifice their game time and save their lives first.

As for Mitch and his team, they haven’t been to Cloud Whale Island recently. Metien was a little worried. He even asked Kadora privately and learned that the Ash Guerrillas – now it should be said that the Liberation Front is planning a major operation. Although their youth army is not the main force, it has some combat power and naturally has to bear the corresponding responsibilities. As for the specific situation, it is a secret of the Liberation Front. Metien wisely did not ask, and he was afraid that he would not get an answer even if he asked. It would be better for Lingge to ask.

But the young man was very calm about this matter. Although Metien hinted at it indirectly, he just remained silent for a while, then reached out and gently stroked his sister’s head, telling her: “Some things will always happen. Before that, just face it with a normal heart, Metien.”

The pink-haired little girl seemed to understand but didn’t quite understand. She still kept her brother’s words in mind and nodded vigorously.

A normal mind. Sometimes she would think, what does it mean to have a normal mind?
Is it true that someone like Lingge can think calmly no matter what difficulties he faces? But sometimes being too calm can make people feel cold-blooded. Is it true that someone like Xiaoxia can see the future and is indifferent to everything that happens now? Not everyone has eyes that can see through the fog, and even the king of fate will feel confused from time to time. So, is it true that someone like Mitch knows that he will step into the battlefield and risk his life, but he is still fearless? But Katora also said that no one likes war. Doing something with an attitude of dislike is not a normal mind, right?
This overly complicated question was not something a girl could answer simply by thinking, so when she was alone, Metien would occasionally pick up the heavy book and try to find the answer in the goddess’s teachings. After all, the whole world was created by the goddess, so naturally, all the mysteries about this world could be answered in the goddess’s teachings, right?
But sometimes she overlooks that what she needs may not be to find the answer, but to discover the fact that she is the answer.

……

About a week later, Mitch, who was maintaining his weapons in the camp, received a message saying, “The thing I promised you last time has been almost done. Bring someone to take a look when you are free.” He was stunned for a moment: Is the efficiency so high? Or did Pastor Linger have the idea of ​​returning to his old job long ago and was so enthusiastic that he couldn’t wait?
Never mind. It has nothing to do with me.

Now that it’s done, why not… go over and take a look?

Mitch thought about it, and went to say hello to Regina, saying that he had to leave for a while because of something. When Grayhill Eagle was not there, this cheerful red-haired girl was the person in charge of the camp. As for why Grayhill Eagle was not there, Mitch only knew that he seemed to have contacted the leaders of other resistance organizations in person, but he was not sure about the specific situation. It was probably related to the next operation.

Of course, no matter what kind of action he takes, he has enough courage and confidence to achieve victory with the help of weapons and the power of his companions.

People who have no confidence will die on the battlefield long ago – or, sooner or later, will die.

After saying hello, the boy found Kadora again and asked her to gather the children. Although nominally, he was the temporary guardian of the children, and this was a task entrusted by Grayhill Eagle himself, in reality, Kadora was obviously more approachable, and everyone was more willing to rely on her. As for Mitch? Mitch was not completely incapable, but his personality… in the words of a genius player, he was a very standard tsundere.

This is definitely not a good thing to say. When Mitch questioned the genius player, she also said that “tsundere” means “proud”, which is a positive word, but any humanoid creature with normal intelligence would not believe her nonsense.

I’ve gone off topic. Anyway, Kadora quickly gathered the children together, and Mitch announced the good news to them. Of course, it was good news. Mitch knew that most of these children were from the same poor and helpless background as himself. Not to mention the damage caused by the war, even in peacetime, they might not be able to go to school. At least for now, the education system in the East Continent is still at a relatively backward stage, and literacy is a privilege for a few people; even in the more civilized West Continent, it is said that not everyone can read. So, they were very lucky, lucky to meet a good person who was willing to teach them knowledge for free.

Well, Coach Ai said that “good person” is not an appropriate word to praise others, but Mitch couldn’t think of a more appropriate description.

The boy expected these children to react in a way that was not happy, but rather confused and bewildered, not understanding what this meant. A few even showed obvious resistance, because they had suffered serious psychological trauma in the war and found it difficult to trust others. If Mitch had not persuaded them in advance, I’m afraid these children would not be willing to leave the camp and go to a strange place to be led to class by a stranger, as they lacked a sense of security.

In fact, some stubborn guys didn’t even listen to Mitch’s words. In the end, the boy had to bring up the name of Grayhill Eagle to make them obey. At such times, the boy would feel that there was still a big gap between him and Brother Carson. He didn’t know when he could be like him and bring others the power of belief with just a word or a look.

After a little preparation, they set out for Cloud Whale Sky Island. Because of the large group of people, they attracted a lot of attention. The adults just took a look and made a few jokes, but didn’t take it seriously. After all, they had more important things to do than these children. However, Mitch and Kadora’s companions came over one by one when they heard that they were going to Cloud Whale Sky Island. They kept saying that there were ash creatures in the Black Forest and it was not safe. It would be safer for everyone to go together. In fact, the camp of the ash guerrillas was only a few hundred meters away from Cloud Whale Sky Island, and this distance was far enough to not require a special escort.

They just wanted to take this opportunity to use the game consoles at Tianxin Church. Mitch himself was itching to play after not playing games for a whole week, not to mention the others. So he thought about it and didn’t let these guys go back, but allowed them to follow him. It’s not good to be tense all the time, it’s easy to break your nerves, so let everyone relax appropriately – this is the truth he learned from Pastor Lingge.

Although he had never been to school, he always felt that many people had taught him various things. Brother Carson, Sister Regina, Pastor Linger, and Kadora… Thinking of this, the boy subconsciously turned his head and glanced at his companions.

“Hmm?” The girl noticed his gaze and subconsciously tilted her head. She blinked her emerald green eyes, and a few golden bangs fell from the gap of the tall military cap. Perhaps because there was no shortage of food recently, her hair, which used to be dull and dry, had become much brighter, just like her hopeful eyes: “What’s the matter, Mitch?”

“No, it’s nothing!”

The boy replied subconsciously, with a bit of panic in his voice. For some reason, he suddenly felt the tip of his nose getting hot. He quickly looked away from the girl’s suspicious gaze and rubbed his nose to cover up his embarrassment. At this time, a few sneers came from behind him, and the veins on Mitch’s forehead suddenly popped out. He shouted to his laughing companions behind him: “Be quiet, stop talking to them about the game console!”

To go on, these children don’t want to go to school, but instead want to go to the game hall.

If that happened, Coach Ai would probably be grinning from ear to ear, but unfortunately Pastor Ling would have high blood pressure.

……

It is hard to imagine that a three-story building can be erected in just one week if you have not seen it with your own eyes. Its shape is quite classical, with curved towers, symmetrical corridors and wide square windows, red brick walls and white roof tiles, making the color contrast bright and vivid, and the vibrant green plants in the small flower beds and the lush forest scenery seen from the high ground give people a sense of relaxation and joy.

On the left side of the main building is a court surrounded by wire fences. There are still some equipment scattered in the court. It seems that someone used it not long ago. Mitch didn’t know that it was Xino’s suggestion. She hoped that the children would not be bound by the knowledge learned in the course, and have a rich and colorful spare time. So she decided to promote the wind flower ball sport from her hometown in another continent and help them exercise. As for the traces of use on the court, it was left by a certain Scarlet End Demon King who had a sudden idea and dragged a certain Gray Queen here to reminisce about his youth. No need to say more.

On the right side of the main teaching building is a large garden with many varieties of flowers growing and cultivating, far more than the common green plants in the small flowerbed under the window sill. At least Mitch could only recognize a few common ones, and he didn’t even know the names of the rest. The garden is equipped with pavilions, benches, stone benches and other facilities, allowing children to rest and relax after class. There is even a fountain pool in the center. The water in it is directly brought from the stream on the island through the canal. It is clear enough to raise fish.

Mitch was dumbfounded. If no one told him, he would have thought that this building was a manor or villa of a noble. At this moment, the boy had the same idea as a certain young man: Is it necessary to be so exaggerated?
According to his idea, any room can be used as a classroom. There is no need for a classroom. It is also possible to teach in the open air. As for the courses, they do not need to be very advanced. The main thing is to give these children something to do so that they will not be immersed in the sadness of the past and cannot get out of it. However, judging from the current situation, it seems that Pastor Ling does not think so.

Does he want to train a few great scholars, archbishops, great prophets, etc.?
It’s a bit absurd, but considering the current situation, it’s subtly reasonable.

Regardless, Pastor Lingge attaches so much importance to it, which is a good thing; being able to study in such an environment, get in touch with more profound knowledge, and experience a more complete campus life is also a good thing for these children. Since it is all good, what reason do I have to object? To be honest, if my thoughts have not been set and there are tasks to be performed, even Mitch would want to study in these classes. And he believes that among his companions, there are definitely not a few who think so, because he just heard Kadora beside him murmured “It’s great”, and he didn’t know whether the tone was envy or melancholy.

The boy looked at her deeply.

Unlike Mitch and even most of the Ash Guerrillas, Kadora had a pretty good family background before she became a war relic. It was said that she was the daughter of a secretary of a small lord. If the war had not broken out, according to normal historical development, she should have been a student now.

Learn some more useful knowledge rather than killing skills.

The boy thought so and suddenly reached out his hand to help Kadora straighten her hat which was a little tilted on her head. When the latter blinked in confusion, he had already withdrawn his hand and said to his companions behind him and the children who were either frightened or confused: “This is it. This is where you will have classes from now on.”

“Now, follow me in.”

Give me some meow
