199 Accidentally Unlocked Intimacy (Part 1)
After hearing Quest’s conditions, many of the teachers from schools with better comprehensive abilities than Sword Shield City fell silent.
Whether it was the school’s strength or the mecha training’s passing rate, they were all paled in comparison to the gift of a mecha.
Only Wu Qianlian, the teacher in charge of enrollment at the educational institute of China, said coldly, “Teacher Quest, Nico has long been selected as a student by the Norse Republic Academy. We have been training him for quite some time.
“It’s not appropriate for the Sword Shield City Academy to do this, right?”
Hearing Wu Qianlian’s words, Quest’s long and narrow eyes squinted, and he said with a fake smile.
“Teacher Wu’s words are a little too overbearing. Do all the talented students have to be reserved by the Norse Republic Academy? If that’s the case, then what are the recruitment teachers from the other academies doing here?
“Why don’t we just rank them according to their aptitudes, and the ones with the best aptitudes can directly enter the Norse Republic Academy?
“Even though the comprehensive strength of the Sword Shield City Academy isn’t as good as the Norse Republic Academy, we still give our students the right to choose whether they want to join the Sword Shield City Academy or not, right?”
Quest’s words were of a high standard. On one hand, he made use of the hatred other academies had for the Norse Republic Academy, the strongest academy in the country, to pull in a group of helpers. After he finished speaking, the teachers from the other academies nodded their heads in agreement.
On the other hand, Quest’s words pointed out the truth. He had only laid out conditions for Nico. Whether he agreed or not would be up to him. This was the right of the Sword Shield City Academy.
Wu Qianlian was very angry, but she had no choice.
When the major academies recruited students, they would not follow the rules. Their recruitment agencies would observe students of the right age in advance and would allocate resources to cultivate good seedlings.
Usually, if a student was discovered and nurtured by a certain academy first, the other academies would not compete for that student. This was a tacit understanding between the academies, or also known as an unspoken rule.
However, a tacit understanding was just a tacit understanding. The unspoken rules could never be brought to the surface.
Therefore, although Quest’s actions had broken the unspoken rules, on the surface, Wu Qianlian had no right to stop the actions of Sword Shield City Academy.
Wu Qianlian could only look at Nico nervously, hoping that he would reject Quest and choose to join the Norse Republic Academy.
Wu Qianlian was only an enrollment teacher. Before she came here, the school’s big boss had instructed her to bring Nico back to the school.
As for Nico’s abilities and personality, she knew nothing about them.
In Wu Qianlian’s opinion, if she were in his shoes, she would definitely not be able to resist the temptation of a mecha.
Wu Qianlian had already mentally prepared herself for Nico to join the Sword Shield City Academy.
However, she had underestimated Nico’s intelligence and foresight.
Facing Quest’s promise, Nico’s face remained expressionless from the beginning to the end. He said, “Teacher Quest, thank you for your kind intentions. I’ve previously promised Teacher Wu Yisheng that I’ll definitely enter the Norse Republic Academy to study.”
Quest had his hands crossed in front of her chest, looking very confident. When he heard Nico’s rejection, he almost suspected that he was hallucinating.
Quest tried his best to calm himself down and tried to persuade him.
“Are you sure? That is a mecha! The Sword Shield City Academy can sign an origin contract with you, and it’s guaranteed to be effective. You can sign the contract before you enter the academy!”
As soon as Quest said that, everyone’s expression changed, including Zhao Wang.
If Quest’s words had been empty, everyone would have thought that it was an empty promise. But now, they could confirm that the Sword Shield City Academy was serious.
The origin contract was the most binding contract on the origin planet. The contents of the contract were witnessed by the highest-level artificial intelligence of the origin planet, Origin.
If anyone went against the contents of the contract, their breach of contract would be announced to the world by Origin and their reputation would be completely destroyed. Moreover, Origin would directly freeze the collateral formed by the contract.
If the Sword Shield City Academy was willing to sign the origin contract, the rights to the mecha would be pawned to the AI, Origin. If the Sword Shield City Academy broke the contract, Origin would then forcefully obtain the rights to the mecha and hand it over to Nico.
As long as Nico agreed to join the Sword Shield City Academy, an incomparably precious mecha would be at his fingertips.
If a mecha master could own his own mecha, his combat power would be maximized. The stronger ones could fight against an entire noble family.
Everyone looked at Nico with envy. Even Wu Qianlian fell silent. She also felt that Nico should join the Sword Shield City Academy.
Only Nico remained calm. He said, “I’ve already decided to join the Norse Republic Academy. Teacher Quest, I’m sorry!”
Seeing Nico’s refusal, Quest’s face sank. He coldly snorted and stared at Nico.
“Refusing a toast only to drink a forfeit!”
After he finished speaking, he didn’t care that the qualification test wasn’t finished and left angrily.
The crowd was very confused about Nico’s choice. Some stupid people even thought that there was something wrong with Nico’s brain. However, Ning Shi understood.
If things were abnormal, it was a demon. Good things that fell from the sky were often not pies, but traps.
If the Sword Shield City Academy wanted to give Ning Shi a mecha for no reason, Ning Shi would also suspect their motives.
Nico definitely had a big secret or some precious treasure on her that the Hilda family, which was behind the Sword Shield City Academy, had their eyes on.
An A-level aptitude student might be rare in the outer city, but in the inner city, there were quite a few every year.
