Chapter 14: Message

At noon, the cafeteria was bustling, students were waiting in line with eating utensils in the food area, and the aunt in charge of the spoon skillfully and quickly scooped the food onto the utensils, and then shouted loudly for the next one to follow, and the whole canteen was noisy.

Du Yuhan carried two large ceramic bowls through several layers of human dragons quickly, and finally came to the position occupied by Kevin and sat down. Today it's a staple like oatmeal, tossed with some minced meat, served with brown bread and potatoes as a condiment.

Although the cafeteria doesn't taste good, it's better than free, and if it's not enough, you can add more, so many students from the civilian class are willing to squeeze it. After coming here for so long, Du Yuhan has become accustomed to a life without rice and noodles, but every time he arrives at the meal, he misses his eldest brother's craftsmanship very much.

Alas, how can I go back......

Kevin, who had been paying attention to Du Yuhan's movements, felt that the other party was a little depressed, and asked with concern, "What's wrong?" Don't like to eat? ”

Looking up at Kevin's silver-blue eyes, his concern was revealed, and his heart warmed, Du Yuhan shook his head.

Forget it, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, at least he still has friends by his side.

Looking at Du Yuhan, who was instantly recovering and eating, Kevin's eyes darkened, but he didn't say anything.

Chewing the stiff and tasteless black bread, Du Yuhan was disgusted. Anyway, it seems that this kind of combination has been eaten for several days, doesn't the cafeteria aunt change the dishes?! This user experience is really bad!

Just as they were concentrating on their meal, a few students came in groups of three or five next to them.

"Hey, did you hear that?" One of them said mysteriously.

"What?" The others came up curiously.

"I heard that the Cathedral of Bede next door was destroyed!"

Hearing this, Kevin's soup spoon in his hand was stunned.

Bede Cathedral? Du Yuhan, who was immersed in hard work, was stunned for a moment, the name sounded a little familiar, and he couldn't help but secretly prick up his ears.

"Huh?! You say the cathedral that is more than a year old? Someone wanted to exclaim, but was immediately stopped by someone else.

Peter's Church ...... More than 1,000 years...... Ah, isn't that the attraction painted on the poster? Du Yuhan had an epiphany.

"What's going on? You're not, are you? ”

"Hey, how could I talk nonsense about such a big thing." The suspicious student was very unhappy, "I also listened to my brother-in-law who was a guard, and he was sent to patrol the surroundings just ten days ago. Now the entire city of Rob is under martial law, and even the barrier of entry and exit in the city has been opened. ”

"I'll just say that the canteen has been eating these things recently, and it turns out that martial law is under martial law, and the ingredients can't be transported in." Someone looked at the food in the bowl and muttered.

"Huh? Martial law? Then I can't go to the bar tonight? Don't......" someone wailed.

"Don't make a fuss!" Another student slapped him in the face, "Was it attacked by another organization?" Isn't there very well guarded? ”

"I heard that it seems to be attacked by an advanced modeler."

Modeler? Why does this have anything to do with the model? The more Du Yuhan listened, the more confused he became.

"How do you know it's a high-level modeler, maybe it's a great mage who put a forbidden spell or something......"

"It must be a modeler!" The speaker was a little excited, "You didn't see any misery, the roof tiles are all gone, and the whole building is still forcibly split in half from the middle!" I heard my brother-in-law say that the church usually has a protective enchantment, and it still has a certain defensive ability against magic and physical damage, and it can rot like this, it is definitely the modeler's doing, and the level is extremely high! ”

There was an uproar among the people around.

"I've only seen the model teacher in the courtyard next door, and he doesn't seem to have the ability." One student wondered about the destructive power of this horror.

"Are you talking nonsense? Our teachers are just the beginners. "The other one was a little dismissive.

"Isn't that a lot of people hurt? Anyway, it's also a tourist attraction. "Concerns have also been expressed about casualties.

"Not really, because it was late at night and no one was in there." Thankfully, it's not bad news.

"It's horrible! So, are we still safe? "Some people have expressed concern for their safety.

"Didn't you kid just want to go to the bar to fool around?" But he was immediately despised.

"That'...... Are we at war? One of them shuddered and asked a more far-reaching question.

"This ...... I don't think so......" But the others scratched their heads and couldn't come up with a reason.

Soon, their topic was pulled elsewhere.

Du Yuhan, who eavesdropped on all the way, wiped his mouth after eating and drinking, and felt a little pity when he remembered the white model who was sitting in tatters by himself. Now that the physical objects are destroyed, it would be nice if they hadn't been demolished at the time, and they could still be made as a memorial or something.

"...... Bede Cathedral" Kevin, who had also eavesdropped on the road, frowned, looking faintly worried.

Noticing that Kevin's expression was wrong, Du Yuhan asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?" ”

"I remember Uncle Noyce once mentioning that he was going to study history in the nearby town of Bead, where Bede Cathedral was located...... Kevin expressed concern for his uncle's safety.

"Uh......" Du Yuhan was stunned, looking at Kevin's worried look, he didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only say dryly: "It should be fine, didn't that guy just say?" There were no major casualties, so your uncle wasn't in there at all! ”

"Well, too." Holding back the uneasiness in his heart, Kevin comforted himself.

Seeing his best friend's sad face, Kevin suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "By the way, I can help you inquire about your uncle's whereabouts." ”

"Huh?"

"Don't forget, I'm the 'eldest young master'!" Du Yuhan pointed at himself proudly.

Anyway, Du Yuhan is still the titular "eldest young master" of the Garcia family, although he doesn't have any real power in his hands, it shouldn't be difficult to use resources to inquire about a person, right?

Du Yuhan is straightforward, without the arrogance of a noble young master, the two have been together for a long time, and Kevin almost forgot the other party's aristocratic identity.

I didn't expect my mood to be taken so seriously, and Kevin showed a smile like a spring breeze. "Thank you."

"Oh, what's this! It's a good job! Patting Kevin's shoulder hard, Du Yuhan laughed heartily. Don't be polite to me, good friends! ”

Hearing this, Kevin's expression froze, revealing a faint wry smile.

"What kind of hand did you just say?"

"Uh...... As easy as lifting a finger. ”

"Why raise your hand?"

“…… When I didn't say. ”

*****************

In a large and luxurious room, there are rows of huge wooden shelves, on which are neatly arranged all kinds of bottles and cans. If Du Yuhan was here, he would be amazed, because these bottles contained a variety of materials, in addition to the common stone, wood, and cloth, there were also various biological materials, such as skin, blood, and hair......

In the center of the room there was a huge workbench with various white molds on it, and a handsome young man stood beside it, with dark lines flowing slowly on the pale blue bracelet on his wrist. He stared intently at the grail-shaped grid placed on the table, adjusting the angle from time to time to make corrections.

After a long time, he gently lowered the grid, put his right hand on the bracelet, and silently recited the incantation in his mouth. The dark lines on the bracelet felt the infusion of energy, as if a boulder was thrown into the lake, and the originally slowly flowing charm stirred up monstrous waves, bursting out with dazzling blue light, like a huge blue curtain, tightly wrapping the model grid, penetrating layer by layer.

At first, the young man who cast the spell seemed to be at ease, but the longer the time passed, a thin layer of sweat gradually appeared on the forehead of the young man who cast the spell, and his face became more and more flushed.

The light of the blue curtain became more and more dim, and eventually all the energy was absorbed by the grid, and the rune fluctuations on the bracelet gradually began to subside, and finally returned to the initial speed and flowed slowly. The light cleared, and a white mold in the shape of a holy grail appeared on the table.

Looking at the white mold that had finally taken shape, the young man breathed a sigh of relief. But before the relaxed expression could be relaxed, it froze again.

I saw a crack faintly exposed at the bottom of the newly completed white mold, and then the crack became bigger and bigger, more and more, as if there was a force bursting inside the Holy Grail. It didn't take long for layers of cracks to emerge on the white model's body, and with a crisp sound of "bang-", it turned into a little white light and dissipated in the air.

Failed again. The young man frowned in anguish. I have just entered the threshold of the primary level, and the energy control zhì is still not proficient enough, so it seems that I will have to increase the amount of training in the future.

Just as he was about to continue modeling, there was a soft knock on the door.

"Second Young Master."

The big butler? The young man was puzzled, this time period was his modeling time, and no one dared to come in and disturb him. What happened?

"Come in."

A meticulously dressed middle-aged man saluted the young man, "I've seen the second young master." ”

"Hmm." Zia Garcia, a young man in fancy clothes, nodded and motioned for the middle-aged man to continue.

"The patriarch has just brought a message, he has been a guest at the city lord's manor for the past few days, and he will make arrangements when the martial law order is lifted. I also hope that Second Young Master, you will be cautious in your words and deeds recently, so as to prevent mistakes. With that, the butler bowed his hands and bent down and waited.

"Is it because of the Cathedral of Bede?" Zia's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

The butler did not speak, when it was acquiescence.

A few days ago, the more than 1,000-year-old Bide Cathedral was destroyed by Yan Zòng, and the thousand-year-old building was destroyed in one fell swoop. After preliminary investigation, it is speculated that an unknown high-level modeler was responsible for the creation of nodes that connect to real objects and thus launch an attack.

But no one knows why this advanced modeler would destroy a tourist attraction. If it is a political enemy of the city lord, if you have this ability, you should directly destroy the city lord's mansion instead of attacking unimportant buildings.

But the city lord thought that this was a warning from the other party, so he immediately summoned the model masters above the middle level in the city to defend the node, and also monitored a suspect who might attack.

The patriarch of Garcia, who was the model master family, bore the brunt of the matter, and was invited to the City Lord's Mansion on the same day to discuss the matter.

Zia, who is worthy of reaching the level of beginner modeler, is not listed as a target of suspicion, but the wire eye planted by his side will definitely be closely monitored, and it seems that it is best to keep a low profile recently.

Zia rubbed his aching forehead.

"What's the guy doing lately?" Zia suddenly remembered his dear "big brother".

"The eldest young master has been in the academy recently and has never returned home." It seems clear who Zia is referring to. "It's just that I've been getting close to an elven priest lately."

"Elves?" At first, he was still a little confused, but then thinking about the elf's indisputable appearance, it immediately became clear, "Hmph, waste is waste, and death does not change." ”

"The eldest young master has not been in contact with anyone else recently, including Young Master Shelley." The housekeeper emphasized again.

"Oh?" Zia frowned slightly. Did the other party perceive something?

After thinking for a moment, Zia instructed the middle-aged butler, "Let Shelley go and find out." ”

"Yes." After the butler received the order, Shi Li left the room.

Zia walked to the window with his hands in his hands, staring into the distance, and his eyes exuded a fierce look.
