"Am I going to die...... Liu Ye muttered to himself, "Don't...... I haven't started a family yet—"

"Hahahahaha-" Seeing him like this, Shi Lan laughed so much that her stomach hurt and squatted on the ground.

"Hey, are you happy that I'm going to die?" Liu Ye glanced at Shi Lan and pulled out the sword on his chest one by one, "This is what you replaced, magic sword, you thought of it." ”

"Why, you still want me to use a real sword to stab you to death—"

"Excuse me. Liu Ye waved his hand again and again, "Let's do the right thing, how to choose, oh no, claim the wand?"

"Wait a minute. Shi Lan walked around the room and opened all the boxes on the shelves, "Just stand here, and I'll activate a magic circle to pull the magic out of your body." Eh, when your mana is pulled out, be sure to control the speed at which your mana is released, but don't break anything here. ”

With that, Shilan walked to a corner of the room and took out her wand to carve something on the ground. Liu Ye found out that the floor tiles in this room were carved with fine lines, which were connected to form a magic array, but because the carving was very shallow and colorless, it couldn't be seen at all if you weren't careful, and there was a corner missing from this magic array, which was where Shi Lan was making up.

"Alright!" Shilan put away her wand and tapped the ground with her heel, "Mana pull, begin." ”

The emerald green light rose up and enveloped him, "Huh-" Liu Ye couldn't help but gasp, and the feeling of the magic being slowly pulled out of his body was like hot water filling his whole body, which made people feel very subtle.

Like a gust of wind, the halo of light swept over the magic weapons on the shelf, as if hearing a call, one by one the magic weapons flew out of the box and floated around him.

"One, two, three, four......" Shi Lan counted the number of magic weapons flying out one by one, "Huh, why are there only eight, less than half of what I had at that time." It's strange, could it be that a mage with the ability of 'absolute control' would not be favored by magic weapons?"

Liu Ye opened his eyes wide and looked at the floating magic weapons around him, although there were only eight pieces, they were complete, rings, magic wands, cloaks, and even a strange-shaped red crystal product, which looked like a sea urchin that was missing a quarter. However, there is only one wand, which is completely different from what Liu Ye has seen before, this wand is wooden, and it is crooked, it feels like a branch broken from a tree.

"Hmm. Shi Lan put her hands on her chest, and the index finger of her right hand was on her lips, she didn't expect such a situation to happen, originally she thought that there would be many magic wands that would take the initiative to choose Liu Ye.

"What's wrong?"

"It's a little different from what I expected. Shi Lan said, "Well, that's fine, you don't need to choose, anyway, there is only one wand, you can only choose it." ”

"What about the others?" Liu Ye pointed to the remaining seven magic weapons and asked, "Can I take these?"

"Smack!" Shi Lan tapped Liu Ye's head with her white wand, "What are you thinking? Do you want to take them all? Every piece here is very precious, and it's already very cheap to give you one for free, okay?"

"Hey, hey, that's what I'll say. Liu Ye touched his head, then stretched out his hand to hold the magic wand that looked like a branch, and rubbed it slightly, its surface was amazingly smooth, which did not match its appearance at all. What's even more strange is that such a smooth material is not slippery at all, it is almost as if it is adsorbed on the hand, and this contradictory touch is not at all possible for the material on the scientific side.

"This is my wand......" Liu Ye clenched the wand in his palm, "Does it have a name?"

"You seem to like it. Shilan blinked, "Yes...... bar. ”

"Yes...... You're so unsure, so it doesn't seem like it's some famous magic weapon. Liu Ye smiled, "It's okay, I don't have a name, I can pick it myself." ”

"What. Shi Lan took the wand from Liu Ye's hand angrily, walked to the door and pasted it on the screen next to the wall, "Although it is not a famous magic weapon, the collection of Century Dawn is not bad." There are so many magic weapons stored here that I can remember all the names, and if you want to know, you can look them up. ”

After a few seconds, the search results were displayed on the screen.

"Deadwood staff, natural magic weapon. Eh, it's gone?" Shilan frowned as she looked at the search results on the screen.

"The Deadwood Staff is a good match for its shape. Liu Ye walked up to Shi Lan, "Is there something wrong?"

"I didn't expect that there would be such a magic wand in the collection of Century Dawn that was barely introduced, you see, except for the entry of natural magic weapons, there is nothing else. Shilan said, pointing to the screen.

Liu Ye squinted at the screen behind Shi Lan and said to her, "If not, there will be no one, maybe this will be a treasure with a mysterious origin." ”

"Why don't we choose again?" Shi Lan said, rolling her eyes.

"Huh, why?"

"A wand is as important to a magician as life, a companion! Once chosen, it is rarely replaced, so be careful when choosing it for the first time. Shi Lan was not very satisfied with Liu Ye's casual attitude, "If you choose a wand that is not suitable for you, there will be very serious consequences." ”

"What will happen to you?"

"Hmm...... The consequences are – oops, it's going to be serious anyway. Shilan stomped her foot, "In short, magicians don't change their wands easily, unless they ...... Unless the original wand is broken or damaged, it will never be replaced. ”

Liu Ye had no choice but to nod and obediently walked back to his previous position.

"Hey, hey, let's do it all over again. As she spoke, Shilan repeated the previous process again.

The magic weapons flew out one by one from the shelves around them again, but the result did not change, and only the deadwood staff chose Liu Ye.

"Alright, alright, so be it. Liu Ye walked up to Shi Lan and patted her head gently, "Didn't you say before that claiming a wand is a two-way process, since it is the only one to choose my wand, then this should also be so-called - fate, right?" ”

"Don't touch my head!" Shi Lan stepped on Liu Ye angrily, and he screamed in pain.

"Well, if you don't care, forget it. Shilan's bracelet clinked, and she glanced at it, "Grandpa let us go, let's go, it's in the study next door." ”

The two pushed open the door of the study, and Liu Ye saw Yan Heling sitting behind the desk with his hands clenched into fists, quietly waiting for their arrival.

It was quiet in the study, except for the sound of the star map overhead.

"You're here. ”

Yan Heling's voice was very low, and Liu Ye felt that he didn't seem to be very happy.

"Liu Ye, you can go. Yan Heling said, "Tomorrow you can go back to Boyun City and return to the place that belongs to you." ”

"Eh, I, can I go?" Liu Ye pointed at himself, a little incredulous.

"Of course, there are conditions. Yan Heling waved his right hand, but Liu Ye did not come to the desk as he expected, but stayed in place, and the dead wood staff in his hand was emitting a faint light.

Yan Heling's eyes flickered, but he still pretended to be casual and continued: "Given that the real culprit of the British Magical Society's attack has not yet been identified, the suspicion on your body has not been completely removed. The Europeans have asked to keep track of you, and this time you return to Boyun City, where Shilan and Smith will accompany you to monitor your whereabouts. ”

"Grandpa...... Can I say something?" Shi Lan said weakly, "I think Liu Ye is innocent. ”

"Shilan, I also believe that this is the case, but that's what the general association asks for, and I don't have a good way, if I can, I will never let you do such a dangerous thing. When talking to Mu Shilan, Yan Heling's tone became very gentle, "Chairman Watson asked you to go, but Grandpa really can't do anything." ”

Shi Lan glanced at Liu Ye helplessly, shrugged her shoulders, and made an expression of "I've done my best".

"Well, well, go back. Get a good night's rest and leave early tomorrow morning. Yan Heling sighed, "Xiaolan, when you get there, contact me immediately if you have any difficulties." ”

"Good. Shilan responded.

She pulled the corner of Liu Ye's clothes and whispered, "Let's go." ”

Liu Ye nodded, bowed to Yan Heling, and retreated with Shi Lan.

Looking at the backs of the two leaving, Yan Heling's gaze gradually moved to the magic wand in Liu Ye's hand, it was because of its influence that the spatial magic he had just now did not take effect.

"That's it, Deadwood...... So, is it really him? Or is he really dead......

At night, Liu Ye lay on the bed, his five fingers open in front of his eyes to cover the light, thinking back to the three months spent in the dawn of the century. I can't believe that time flies so quickly, the experience of being "kidnapped" by Smith and Mu Shilan is still vivid, and in a blink of an eye, I have unconsciously become one of them, Tang Yin's eldest sister is a person who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside, although she often puts "Be careful that I kill you——" Hanging on his lips, but in fact he is a very gentle person who takes care of Shi Lan like a mother; Ouyang Gu looks ruffian, and often makes some inappropriate jokes, but that night's conversation is enough to prove that he is a thoughtful person, and he doesn't seem to fully believe Yan Heling; as for Fourier, although he still tries to maintain his taciturn character as a blonde beauty in front of Liu Ye, Shi Lan has long pierced the veil that covers his true character, and he is essentially a sullen man, and he is very gossipy; and Zeng Chen, a weak scholar who has a crush on Shi Lan but has been ignored, compared to others, his magic is much weaker, but he is a computer genius, providing technical support for the entire century, and he can be regarded as shining in his own way.

"Then again," Liu Ye thought for a while, "I haven't been to work for so long, I'm afraid I haven't been fired from the company a long time ago......"

Fortunately, the rent is paid once a year, and I can still have a place to live when I go back.

If you don't want to, go to sleep.
