"Child, don't be nervous. My surname is Zhao and I'm the director of the Fantasy Academy. You can call me Director Zhao.”
Outside the door, a white-haired old man dressed in a dark purple mage robe sized up Mu Feng carefully. He nodded in satisfaction and introduced himself when he saw Mu Feng's vigilant expression.
"Oh? Dean, I wonder why the dean is here. I don't think a small figure like me is worthy of the dean's personal visit, right?”
Mu Feng paused for a moment when he heard the other party's self-introduction. Then, he pretended to be confused.
Mu Feng did not let his guard down just because of the other party's identity.
Putting aside the fact that this old man was not the real dean, even if he was the dean, did that mean he was a good person?
Although the other party did look kind, Mu Feng would not think that he was a good person just because of his appearance. On the contrary, his appearance was sometimes the greatest disguise.
Mu Feng knew that he would not make such a stupid mistake to determine whether someone was a good person based on their appearance.
"Hehe, Mu Feng, you're not a nobody. According to the information that our Fantasy Academy has, you have a nine-star talent that is hard to come by in a hundred years. Although you're only a Fantasy Summoner, you have a nine-star talent. Your future is destined to be extraordinary.”
Zhao Changkong did not care about Mu Feng's vigilance. He maintained his friendly expression and spoke to Mu Feng in a teasing tone.
"Then I'll have to thank Director Zhao for his good words. I just don't know why Director Zhao has personally come?”Mu Feng remained unmoved as he asked with an indifferent expression.
"Hehe, little fellow, you are really vigilant. It seems that you won't let your guard down until I tell you why I'm here.”The more Zhao Changkong looked at Mu Feng, the more satisfied he felt. Perhaps he could really succeed, Zhao Changkong thought to himself.
"I have two main purposes for coming here today. The first is to take a closer look at you and confirm if you have the ability to let me decide the second purpose. At present, it seems that you are not bad.”Zhao Changkong observed Mu Feng's reaction as he spoke.
However, to Zhao Changkong's disappointment, Mu Feng's face was still expressionless. He only had an expression that indicated for him to continue.
Zhao Changkong smiled bitterly and thought to himself that he was indeed a nine-star talent that was rarely seen in a hundred years. He actually had such a temperament at such a young age.
Then, he continued," As for the second purpose, we want you to try to inherit something. If you succeed in inheriting it, you will obtain unparalleled benefits. This benefit far exceeds your expectations. How about it, little guy? Do you want to try?”
Zhao Changkong looked at Mu Feng with a faint smile. He wondered how Mu Feng would answer him.
"Oh? What would happen if he failed?”
As expected, Mu Feng did not disappoint Zhao Changkong. He said the words that were closest to what he had expected.
If it was an ordinary person who would be eager to try it after hearing about the benefits, they would not even consider the possibility of failure. However, Mu Feng only asked himself what the consequences would be if he failed. This was enough to show that Mu Feng was a very rational person.
Perhaps some people would think that normal people would ask about the consequences of failure like Mu Feng, but when someone placed huge benefits in front of them, would they really be able to consider the problem rationally?
Compared to them, there were very few people who could maintain their rationality, right? Not to mention this incomparably dangerous interstellar era, weren't there so many people on Earth billions of years ago who abandoned their rationality and took risks for benefits?
Otherwise, why would there be so many criminals? Didn't they know that what they were doing was not good? They might even lose their lives if they were not careful. But why did they still do this?
At the end of the day, it was all about benefits. As long as there were enough benefits, they would dare to do anything.
"Hehe, you really didn't disappoint me. If it was anyone else, they probably wouldn't even consider the consequences of failure.”
Zhao Changkong looked at Mu Feng and sighed. Then, his face suddenly turned serious.
"However, your guess is correct. There are countless benefits if you succeed, but if you fail, your life will be in danger. Even your soul will be destroyed. We won't force you. You can make your own decision. Even if you don't agree, we won't say anything as long as you don't tell anyone about what happened today.”
Zhao Changkong looked at Mu Feng quietly and waited for his answer.
