Chapter 512: Gao Yang Had an Accident
Lin Moyu turned to look. In a nearby tavern, a middle-aged man by the window was waving at him.
He held a jug of wine and gestured to Lin Moyu, "Young brother, come have a drink with me."
The middle-aged man had a cheerful smile, his face flushed, clearly drunk.
Lin Moyu originally wasn't going to respond, but then he noticed the emblem on the man's clothes and changed his mind.
It was the emblem of Jiangning University. Lin Moyu thought of Gao Yang.
During his time at West Sea First High School, Gao Yang had talked to him the most.
Even when Lin Moyu didn't say a word, this somewhat goofy guy could ramble on to him like a one-man comedy show for ages.
Back then Lin Moyu had no friends, his classmates didn't like to interact with him.
Only Gao Yang was an exception.
He was also the first friend, good friend, that Lin Moyu acknowledged in his heart.
Later during college entrance exams, he got into Summer Capital University, while Gao Yang got into Jiangning University as he wished.
Though Jiangning University couldn't compare to Summer Capital University, it wasn't bad, and it was close to West Sea City so Gao Yang could go home to visit occasionally.
"I wonder how that guy is doing at university."
It had already been a year since he last saw Gao Yang.
Too many things had happened in that year, Lin Moyu didn't have much free time.
As memories of the past surfaced, Lin Moyu entered the tavern and sat across from the man, "Senior, are you from Jiangning University?"
The middle-aged man said cheerfully, "Young brother recognized it! I'm Feng Ziliu. Young brother, what did you feel looking at the Kunlun Mountains just now?"
Lin Moyu said softly, "I felt very small."
Feng Ziliu took a sip of wine, "That's right, exactly that feeling. I felt very small too when I first saw the Kunlun Mountains."
"Young brother, I see you're alone. Care to join me for a drink?"
Lin Moyu smiled, "Sure."
After a few drinks, Feng Ziliu became more talkative, "Young brother, you have an extraordinary aura. How are you a life-type career holder?"
Feng Ziliu's level was clear to Lin Moyu's eyes.
Level 42 Berserker, a high-level career holder.
But Lin Moyu's level was not something Feng Ziliu could see.
Lin Moyu always wore a concealment badge, so even if Feng Ziliu used Detection he couldn't see it.
Combined with Lin Moyu's attire, he was naturally assumed to be a life-type career holder.
His aura was now contained. Not just Feng Ziliu, but others also couldn't tell Lin Moyu's career.
Lin Moyu smiled, "Aura shouldn't have much to do with career."
Feng Ziliu laughed heartily, "Indeed, aura really has nothing to do with career. Anyway, I feel we have a connection. I could tell at a glance you're extraordinary."
"Even as a life-type career, your future achievements will surely be limitless."
Lin Moyu smiled slightly, "Brother Feng, does your school have a student named Gao Yang? His career is Sword and Shield Knight."
Feng Ziliu thought for a moment, shaking his head, "Never heard of him."
Lin Moyu's eyes showed slight disappointment.
Feng Ziliu added, "I'll ask the other classmates when they get back."
"Thank you."
Feng Ziliu was very generous: "Don't mention it!"
They chatted casually for a while, then five people entered the tavern in succession.
They all wore the emblem of Jiangning University. Feng Ziliu waved to them, "Over here!"
The group walked over. Feng Ziliu asked, "How was it? Did you all make a move?"
They all had smiles on their faces. One excitedly said, "We all did, Boss. We made a big profit this time..."
Suddenly, he shut his mouth, "Boss, who's this?"
Feng Ziliu said, "A new friend. By the way, let me ask you, have you heard of a Sword and Shield Knight named Gao Yang at our school?"
"Gao Yang? Sword and Shield Knight."
They all looked thoughtful, then shook their heads.
Lin Moyu sighed lightly in his heart.
In a top university, there could be thousands or tens of thousands of students.
It was normal not to have heard of an unremarkable Gao Yang.
Suddenly someone exclaimed, "I think I've heard of someone like that."
Lin Moyu looked up. The speaker was a female healer, just level 40.
The aura of her second transition was still present, indicating she had completed it less than ten days ago.
She said, "I heard my dormmates mention a Sword and Shield Knight named Gao Yang who had an accident during a freshman trial."
Lin Moyu raised an eyebrow, asking urgently, "What accident?"
"I'm not sure of the details, but apparently he was badly injured. Even the best healers at the university couldn't help."
Normally healers could quickly heal minor injuries.
Even if limbs were severed, a god-level healer could regrow them.
And the freshman trial Gao Yang participated in was generally very safe, with teachers supervising. Accidents shouldn't really happen.
"Then what? Didn't the university invite better healers?" Lin Moyu asked patiently.
She shook her head, "I don't know about that."
Feng Ziliu said softly, "I know a bit about this. The university's best healer is already level 85. If even he couldn't help, then only a god-level healer could."
"But god-level healers aren't easy to invite. There are only a few in the empire, and ordinary people can't move them."
Lin Moyu suppressed his anxiety, "Can you help me find out where Gao Yang went?"
His tone had changed, no longer asking but more like commanding.
The others looked displeased, but Feng Ziliu gave them a look, "Go ask."
They still gave Feng Ziliu face and used communicators to inquire.
Feng Ziliu asked Lin Moyu, "Brother Lin, is Gao Yang your friend?"
Lin Moyu nodded, "He's my high school classmate."
Feng Ziliu smiled, "No wonder Brother Lin is so young. You just transitioned. Youth is good!"
He didn't look down on Lin Moyu for being newly transitioned, but the others looked impatient.
They all felt a mere life-type career holder had no right to order them around.
Now seeing he was not only a life-type career holder, but also a freshman.
What level could he be? He was nothing.
If not for Feng Ziliu's face, Lin Moyu had no right to sit here.
A moment later, they finally got a response.
"We found out. The university couldn't treat Gao Yang, so they gave him some money and sent him home."
"His home seems to be in West Sea City."
As soon as the female healer finished speaking, Lin Moyu vanished before their eyes.
Only his "Thank you" lingered in their ears.
The group was stunned. What just happened?
"How did he disappear just like that? Is he human or ghost?"
"So scary, did we just see a ghost?"
"Could it be a wandering spirit who died in the Kunlun Mountains?"
Seconds later, Feng Ziliu suddenly exclaimed, "I know who he is!"
"Who?"
"Boss, tell us quickly."
Feng Ziliu said, "If I'm not mistaken, he should be Lin Moyu."
Ah!
Everyone was in disbelief. Lin Moyu's name had been too famous in the past half year.
Especially a few days ago, when Lin Moyu went to Cherry Blossom Country with Bai Yiyuan and forcefully wiped out the Black Dragon Association.
Lin Moyu had become legendary.
But how could such a legendary figure appear here,
Even talking to them? Shouldn't he be high above?
"Boss, could you be mistaken?" Someone thought it unlikely.
Feng Ziliu shook his head, "I'm 80-90% sure. Divine General Lin only transitioned a year ago, so his classmates are all freshmen."
"And Divine General Lin's hometown is West Sea City. Didn't you say Gao Yang's hometown is also West Sea City?"
"His surname is Lin, he's classmates with Gao Yang, and he has almost ghostly speed."
"How could there be such a coincidence in the world?"
After Feng Ziliu's analysis, they felt it really was the case.
Feng Ziliu drank heavily, "No wonder, no wonder I felt his aura was so extraordinary earlier."
"No wonder his tone suddenly became so lofty."
"We were really blind!"
