The Lord Demon King is Unfathomable!

Chapter 1220 - 362: The Demon King Infiltrates the Academic State (Part 3)

In the center of the square, a colossal fountain was performing miracles. The spray that erupted was not ordinary water, but magic light constantly changing shape!

In mid-air, it sometimes condensed into a graceful bird spreading its wings, and after a few seconds of hovering, it "whooshed" apart, turning into a misty light fog, radiating rainbow-like brilliance!

Several huge parchment scrolls floated in mid-air above the square, displaying various announcements in gleaming fonts—

Such as a public lecture notice from a Great Alchemist, or a task for rare materials like 'Deep Sea Night Light Algae'!

This place felt even more like a player's starting village than the square at the Great Graveyard, so much so that even the Demon King showed a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Although he had heard Miranda's descriptions of the prosperity of the Academic State, seeing it firsthand was undoubtedly more shocking than rumors.

Passing through the broad Scholar Square, Kegi led them to a slightly shorter tower.

However, calling it slightly shorter was only relative to the main tower that pierced the sky. Compared to the clusters of towers around the Tower of Great Sages, this tower still stood out prominently.

Two enormous metal golems stood in front of the dormitory building, gazing down with majestic eyes at the students passing by like ants.

However, when the golems saw the badge on Kegi's chest, their majestic gaze instantly shifted... they seemed to have "identity recognition" function.

"Your Highness, here is the faculty dormitory tower, your room is located on the thirtieth floor... please allow me to escort you up."

Kegi took out a talisman stone engraved with runes, opened the access control, and respectfully handed it to the Prince.

"Do I need to show this every time?" Luo Yan weighed it in his hand, casually asking Kegi.

Kegi laughed and said:

"Of course not, you are a Master here, they recognize every Master's face... It's just that, your identity is still being registered, it will take them a few days to remember."

"I see."

Luo Yan nodded, then handed the "door control stone" to Sarah.

Passing through the two enormous metal golems, the group continued forward, stepping onto a platform similar to an elevator in the main tower.

The dormitory tower's elevator was more compact and slightly faster.

When the platform smoothly stopped at the 30th floor, what met Luo Yan's eyes was a private foyer, with a dark red carpet extending to the oak door straight ahead.

Kegi's tone was filled with barely concealable reverence and envy, as he bowed deeply to the Prince beside him.

"Your Highness, to express their sincerity and respect for you, the top floor of the Tower of Great Sages has specially approved the use of this suite for you... You will have the entire floor to yourself."

"In the Academic State, only professors or sages who have made outstanding contributions have such qualifications, you are the first to move in here as a Master."

Luo Yan smiled upon hearing this, accepting the compliment, and then stepped forward.

And as the heavy wooden door opened, a mansion that could be described as the perfect combination of magic and art came into view.

The ceiling in the living room was not a solid rock wall, but a massive 'celestial instrument' composed of countless intricate brass gears and varied sizes of crystal lenses.

Driven by invisible forces, it rotated slowly, perfectly simulating the movement of the sky with an awe-inspiring mechanical beauty.

The walls were adorned with several elegantly woven wool tapestries, with landscapes rendered in golden threads that were grand and stunning, truly awe-inspiring!

What's more astonishing was that both the serene forest and the majestic mountains seemed to change slowly over time—

They seemed to have their own life!

At the end of the living room was a large floor-to-ceiling window, outside which was a spacious stone-paved balcony, protected by a wind barrier almost invisible to the naked eye. Even at high altitudes, not a whisper of wind could be felt, allowing for a safe overlook of the Academic State's splendid, dazzling nightscape.

Next to the window, an ancient brass plate rested.

According to Kegi's explanation, this was a device capable of launching 'communication light balls,' encapsulating sound within the light balls and directly delivering them to any terrace in the main tower.

Of course, its delivery distance was limited, and it lacked the 'voice recording' function, so it was usually used to command subordinates on duty in the laboratory or office.

Important messages still relied on demons like owls or pigeons.

Luo Yan was very curious which Void Realm this thing was learned from, but unfortunately, Kegi obviously didn't know, he was just a little assistant.

Not troubling the bewildered young man, Luo Yan walked toward the study on the side.

The study here was even more remarkable.

Elegant ebony bookshelves were arranged like a screen, layer upon layer, reaching the roof, resembling a miniature library!

With Kegi's enthusiastic prompting, Luo Yan casually mentioned a basic magic theory book title, and the magic book seemed to grow wings and flew off the shelf, guided by the embedded rune stone on its cover, landing steadily in his palm.

Quite interesting.

Luo Yan, intrigued, tossed the book forward and watched it automatically fly back to the shelf, pondering that his Demon King Palace could also arrange such a thing.

The good things in the Academic State were even more than he imagined; it seemed this journey to the Northern Realm might yield substantial gains.

"Next is the bedroom—"

Kegi had just opened the door to introduce when Taufu cheered loudly and rushed in, quickly occupying the largest room, claiming ownership.
