Section 87 Embarkation
"I remember Miss Flora saying that they came back in the wee hours of last night. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info "Ingres wondered, the mentor happened to return last night, could there be any connection between this? And he also noticed one thing, since last night, the thunderclouds covering the entire Devil's Sea have begun to subside in a large area, which may also be a noteworthy point.
Angel recorded all these thoughts into a holographic tablet. With his current status, it is difficult to support these thoughts, so he can only record them and wait for the day when he will have enough strength to solve the puzzle.
Angels retracted the Eye of Heaven into the lining and placed it snugly as before.
- Maybe the Outer Eye will change unexpectedly after last night. Whether this change is good or bad, Angel must also accept it, he can't discard the Outer Eye for a potentially bad future, so he can only take it with him.
Ingres put him aside for the time being.
Seeing that the time had shifted to dusk, after dinner, Ingres had nothing to do, and after reading a short section of the novel with the holographic tablet, he fell asleep.
The next day, at daylight, a huge steam airship came from afar and anchored near the col. There is a hidden magic pattern on the airship, which is the same as the magic pattern on the black shadow servant's robe, which is also a hidden magic pattern.
The airship's doorway opened, and a gray-haired little old man stood in the doorway, when two figures suddenly appeared beside him.
It was Sanders and Flora.
"Oh, there are only 10 talents received this time, and after I go back, the Wallace family will definitely make trouble again. The little old man closed his eyes and sensed for a moment, and seemed to be able to see everything in the cave.
"I'm not worried. The group of people in the academy know that with our style, the selection of talented people will inevitably have this result, and making a fuss is just to look good on their faces. Flora said nonchalantly.
Recruiting gifted people is an inherent task for every wizarding organization, but for the vast majority of wizards, this task is a hot potato. If you don't do this task, you won't have a source of life, and if you do this task, you'll waste time. Generally speaking, this kind of task is pushed back and forth, and in the end it is handed over to the wizard apprentice. At the beginning, Sanders took on this task, but it shocked the eyes of a large number of people.
At that time, the academic representatives of Wallace's family were resolutely opposed to Sanders recruiting talented, because with Sanders's character, he would inevitably adopt the most extreme recruitment methods, such as "Nine Cabins Blood Fight". There are few talented people, and after the consumption of the "Nine Cabin Blood Fight", how many students can be recruited in the end?
These recruited students will eventually be assigned to their command! To them, this is equivalent to free day jobs! If there are fewer students, there will be fewer day jobs! Naturally, they are not happy with Sanders recruiting talented people.
In fact, Sanders went out mainly to find Grea, and as for recruiting talents, it was a convenient task. Seeing Wallace's opposition, Flora remembered that Sanders had only said one sentence at that time: "Okay, or will this task be handed over to you?"
This sentence is comparable to the supreme killer. All the wizards, whether they were fierce combatists or elegant academics, rejected one after another, and then scattered. Even Wallace was embarrassed for a long time, and then ran away in disgrace on the grounds of inconvenience with his old legs.
Therefore, in the end, the task of recruiting talents still fell on Sanders.
"Oh my God! it's strange that Miss Flora didn't call them 'dissidents,' and it would be nice to have Wallace here. The gray-haired little old man said with a pompous expression.
Flora spread her hands: "No way, who called my dear mentor, this time I took in an apprentice who looks like an academy, in order to get along happily in the future, let the 'dissidents' go to hell! By the way, I almost forgot to correct Mr. Nice's mistake, this time we received not 10 talents, but 8 people." ”
Flora casually pointed in the direction of Angels' room, "That's the tutor's new student Angle, and it's not in this selection." After finishing speaking, Flora pointed in another direction: "The otherworldly half-breeds over there are not counted in this list." ”
The little old man, Nice, listened to Flora's words, and didn't care about the difference between 10 and 8 people, but looked at the expressionless Sanders in disbelief. "Master Sanders has taken in an apprenticeship, and it's an academic?! I can't believe it, was I just dreaming?"
Sanders glanced at Nice, a plain and unwavering glance, but it made Nice instantly put away his exaggeration, and his face trembled.
"Don't waste any time, let's get started. Sanders said.
Ness nodded suddenly: "Ahem, since the Savage has arrived at its destination, then let's let this year's talentes board the cabin!"
......
Angel followed a group of gifted people aboard the Savage.
Perhaps it was because they were too confined in a tent these days, and after boarding the boat, everyone spontaneously gathered on the deck of the Savage, facing the cold wind in the sky, and went their separate ways to enjoy a rare moment of freedom.
Almost everyone has seen a steam airship for the first time, and there are different opinions as to why it can fly into the sky. Some people say it's magic, some say it's alchemy, and some people say it's magic energy array, and it's so noisy and noisy.
"I don't think so. Sailum said with a serious face, holding his beloved thick book.
"Then why do you think it flies?" asked Nausicaa, leaning against the railing of the deck, smoking a smoking gun. The cold wind ruffled her long hair, and the scales on her shoulders rattled.
"I don't know, but I suspect that it may have been flying with some kind of linkage, just like the clock. Sairum said.
Nausicaa: "What do you think?"
Angel replied noncommittally, "Maybe Irum is right. ”
But not all of them. The steam airship does have a mechanical side, but if you want to maintain such a stable and high-speed movement, there must also be a mysterious side, Ingres secretly thought.
Nausicaa could hear the perfunctory words in Ingres' words, but no one cared. Everyone gathered on the deck to blow the wind, there was no preset purpose, and the topic was just a casual conversation.
"Yawn—" Sylum sneezed, "It's so windy here, you're going to get sick if you blow it any longer." ”
Looking at Serum, whose snot had already fallen, Nausicaa shook her head: "It seems that you and Angel need to exercise more." ”
Angel also felt cold, and couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard Nausicaa's words.
Angel took out a handkerchief embroidered with the family lionheart logo from his pocket and handed it to Serum: "Wipe it, the wind is indeed a little strong, or we will go back first." ”
Serum nodded, he wanted to go back to his room and read a book rather than blow the wind. Ingres didn't want to stay on the deck selfishly, not to mention the problem of whether the wind was strong or not, just the omnipresent guidance of the talented people around him, whether malicious or not, made Ingres uncomfortable.
"I'm not going back, it's rare to have a good time, and if I don't take the time to enjoy it, it's so boring. Nausicaa said.
After Angel and Syrum leave, they weave their way through the mechanical-style corridors. In the past, the Savage Cave recruited several talents in one room, but this time, Sanders recruited only 9 talents in total, except for Ingres. Therefore, there are a lot more rooms on the Savage, so there is one room for one person. Selum and Angel's rooms are on different floors, with Angel on the upper floor and Serum on the lower floor.
After saying goodbye to Selum in the stairwell, Ingres saw a small dark figure standing in the doorway of his room from a distance.
When I got closer, it turned out to be a young falcon.
This young falcon is a golden-beaked black-feathered bloodshot and looks very beautiful. As Ingres was about to investigate why it was standing in the doorway, he heard a familiar voice coming from the mouth of the falcon:
"Angel, this falcon is my alchemy pet, you follow it to my room. ”
The voice was Sanders's, and Ingres didn't know what the mentor was looking for him, but he didn't dare to slack off at all. After placing Toby back in the room, Angel hurried away with the falcon.
