Chapter 30 Living quarters
Not far from Catimos's shout, a ghostly beast howl rang out.
The voice was so sharp that it pierced the mind, so piercing that Vickers covered his ears.
Looking at the sky, a black dragon with a length of five meters waved its wings and suddenly descended, and the grass where it fell formed a huge whirlpool.
The black dragon had a short neck, and the dragon's head had no horns, but there were several streamers around it, and it was covered with dark purple light lines, all of which emitted brilliance, and it seemed that there was energy flowing in it.
Catimos didn't make any moves, calmly watching the strange black dragon descend from his head, and after the black dragon fell steadily, he jumped directly and rode on the black dragon's back.
"Come on, Vickers. ”
Vickers took a deep breath and slowly approached the black dragon called Phantom.
The black dragon's eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of purple mist, and only the red vertical pupils could see clearly, which was amazing. Seeing that Kerx was approaching, its vertical pupils suddenly lit up and emitted a piercing buzzing sound.
Vickers was shocked, his body shook, and he took a step back abruptly.
Catimos's heel struck the black dragon's waist, and the black dragon roared, obviously in pain.
"He's my student, you know what that means. Catimos said in a deep voice.
The black dragon lowered his head, and actually spoke, in a very respectful tone, and said, "Yes, master." ”
Vickers timidly climbed onto the dragon's back and sat down behind Catimos. The sunset completely set at this time, and the black dragon immediately rose into the air, waving its wings with all its might, and appeared a hundred meters above the ground a second later.
It was the first time Vickers had flown in the air, and he was prostrate on the back of a dragon, very palpitating, and even a little afraid.
Falling into the abyss a few years ago seems to have made him afraid of high places.
The black dragon galloped through the sky, as if the night was merging into one, and there was no dragon flying in the sky on the ground. The air currents whipped through Catimos's hair, which was gray and messy, completely inconsistent with his temperament and attire.
The sky was dark, and a place in the Linluo Venerable Temple was unusually bright, and after ten minutes of flying, the black dragon came to a halt high above there.
Catimos grabbed Vickers by the collar of his clothes and jumped off the dragon's back, and then the black dragon let out a long howl and fled away in an instant.
Vickers suddenly felt something strange and opened his eyes suddenly, realizing that he was flying downward. Before he could scream, the two of them had reached the ground.
It is an intersection with a ten-meter-wide road surface, a large area of vegetation behind it, and a street scene with countless people in front of it, and colorful neon lights intertwined to form a new world.
There are four parts of the courtyard, the teaching area, the natural area, the living area, and the city, so this must be the living area.
Looking at both sides, a large number of storefronts are paved in straight lines, and occasionally people walk out of the intersection to go to those shops, and someone walks from the white stone road directly into all kinds of shops.
Vickers crouched on the ground, wheezing for breath, and the feeling of falling was really uncomfortable.
Grabbing Vickers' arm with one hand, Catimos pulled him straight from the ground and led him into the street.
As soon as I entered, I squeezed through the crowd a few times, and the number of people gradually decreased by a lot, and now I can finally see what this place looks like.
Passing by countless storefronts, all kinds of new things are emerging in front of Vickers's eyes like a sea.
Vickers's neck turned round and round, new people, new things, so attractive! The narrow streets looked from a distance, there was no end in sight, and the large expanses of houses on both sides did not exceed three floors.
The farther inside, the fewer people few, and after walking briskly for ten minutes, Vickers and Catimos began to attract the attention of others.
The pedestrians who were in the way gave way one after another, looking at the two of them a little strange, as if they both knew Catimos.
Walking between the two shops, at the mouth of an alley that could barely get in, Catimos let go of Vickers' hand and walked in.
Vickers followed closely behind him, following him through the alley.
Passing through the alley, a three-story quaint villa came into view, the villa was surrounded by a fence, and there was a gap in the fence, which was supposed to be the place of Anmen, but there was no here.
Catimos walked straight to the gap and entered a small field with a dazzling array of plants that fluoresce at night.
Vickers looked at it twice, and then followed Catimos into the villa, pushed the door open, the area of the villa was not large, the layout was very clear, and it was unobstructed.
The whole house is lit by candlelight, with candles on the walls, tables, and handrails of the stairs, and candle chandeliers hanging from the ceiling. Entering the door, you can see the living room and the staircase leading to the upper floor, all of which are made of wood and dark red.
Wix looked around, and he saw that the dining table, coffee table, and sofa were full of books and papers, and wherever they could put things, they were all there, and there was no decoration in the whole villa.
The villa also had a basement, where Catimos took Vickers.
"This is my workshop, and I'll teach you alchemy techniques here," he said, pointing to an eerie table, "That's the alchemy table, where the potions are made." ”
On the alchemy table were a stand and several glass bottles, the table top was uneven and a little slanted, and there was a notch at the crooked end, where a glass bottle hung with several concave lines extending to the other end, connecting several slightly concave circles.
The basement is relatively empty, with candlelight like the upstairs, and there is a separate room in the corner, in addition to which is an alchemy table and several bookcases, on which are placed books, papers, and various alchemy materials.
"You can move freely on the first floor and in the basement, but you can't go to the third floor, the second floor is my room and yours, take you up now. ”
Vickers remembered that when he was a child, he had to stay in his room and look at piles of boring books, and he couldn't read them.
Catimos said as he walked, "I know you're an unruly person, and if you go to the third layer, I'll punish you." ”
Vickers argued, "I'm on the fourth floor for that book. ”
Catimos stopped, squinted at Vickers, and said coldly: "If you want to find something, there is something on the third floor, will it also break the rules I have set?"
Vickers was speechless, and if that were the case, he would most likely break the rules, as Catimos said.
"You don't have to rush to read that book, you didn't understand the first volume, and the next volume didn't help you at all. ”
On the second floor, you can see a short hallway and two doors side by side.
"The one on the left is my room, the one on the right is yours, you live here today, there is no time limit in your dormitory, there is no management staff, it is the same whether you go back or not. ”
Vickers nodded, and Catimos went downstairs.
Until the footsteps disappeared, Vickers walked into the room on the right, a bed, a set of tables and chairs, a wardrobe and a bookcase, a wooden box in front of the bed, and a balcony, a very ordinary room configuration, the style and color of the furniture were the same as downstairs, all dark red.
Vickers moved the chairs at the table to the balcony, where he could still see the street, and simply watched the bustling scenery outside for a long, long time.
