Chapter 207: Coming Home
Sunfury Spire.
Carlin paused, looked up at the spire that was almost dozens of stories high, and the shield emblem engraved on the spire, and gradually fell into deep thought.
This minaret is where the Sunfury family is located; In a sense, this is my home...... Unfortunately, since leaving Quel'Thalas for Dalaran many years ago, the scenery seems to have become blurry and unfamiliar.
Thinking of this, Carlin smiled helplessly, and then took a few steps towards the tower......
"Stop, intruder!" A cold voice suddenly sounded from the front: "Please show your pass!" ”
In the darkness, Carlin saw a large arcane construct slowly walking towards him, the voice that had just come from it.
Although it looked like an arcane construct, at a glance, Karin could already see several flaws in it...... It's clear that its designers aren't very clever in terms of construction technology.
But the question arises, he wants to show the "pass" himself?
Carlin suddenly remembered that many years ago, when he had just broken through the first link, he had received a letter from Kane's Sunwrath, which contained a token, which was a pass to the Sunfury Spire!
But after so many years, I don't know where to throw that unimportant token......
Carlin was suddenly a little embarrassed, did he have to break through without a token, although this construct was not a problem for him, but there were still a few mages in his impression that the family strength was higher than his own, in case there was any misunderstanding...... It's not so good.
As Carlin hesitated, he suddenly saw a young elf dressed in a red robe approach.
"Carlin!" The other party's voice was a little surprised.
Carlin was stunned for a moment and muttered, "Oliver? ”
This mage was the first friend Carlin had met when he first came into this world: Oliver Sunrage, who had a shamrock emblem engraved on the right breast of his red robes...... He's already a three-ring mage.
Although compared to a genius (monster) like himself or Khadgar, Oliver's speed of promotion is nothing; However, among the same clan, breaking through from the lowest apprentice to the official mage of the third ring in just a few years is already a remarkable achievement.
"Well done, Oliver!" A sincere smile appeared on Carlin's face......
"Carlin, thanks to the notebook you left me......" Oliver shook his head, and then saw the blue robe on Carlin's body, and his expression was a little dark: "But compared to you, it's far behind!" ”
Oliver quickly dismisses the arcane construct with his pass, and the two of them shush each other......
Oliver now works as an assistant in the Sunfury Library, and his income and life are not bad, but he smiled and said, "By the way, Carlin is thanks to you...... Chief Tiffany took such good care of me......"
"Tiffany!" Hearing this familiar name, the familiar face came to mind, and Carlin narrowed his eyes, and then asked softly:
"Is she still the head of the Sunfury Library?"
"Yes......" Oliver nodded, "Over the years, she has often mentioned you to me, especially when she heard about your deeds in the south, she is happy for you from the bottom of her heart......"
"Take me to meet her!" Carlin whispered.
"Okay, follow me......" Oliver took the lead up the stairs.
……
Tiffany Sunfury sat in the seat in front of the Arcane Communication Wall as usual.
The blue mage's robe was scattered over her shoulders, and she held a book in her hand, flipping through it casually...... The atmosphere of the library is the same as it was many years ago, there are not many people.
Footsteps came from downstairs, causing the archmage to look up...... Because one of the footsteps was somewhat unfamiliar......
"Oliver, is he?" Seeing this assistant of hers, with a strange elf beside her, Tiffany couldn't help but ask:
"Wait, you're Karin?"
The tone of the latter sentence was full of surprise.
"yes, Chief Tiffany." Carlin smiled and said, "It's been a long time, but you're still as beautiful as you were all years ago!" ”
"Little guy, it seems that over the years outside, he has learned how to make women happy!" A teasing smile appeared on Tiffany's face, and she suddenly pulled out her staff......
A powerful spiritual force suddenly struck Carlin.
Carlin knew that this was not an attack, but a form of etiquette, or a greeting, as an "elder".
He squeezed Etiyesh tightly without hesitation, and his spiritual power did not back down in the slightest, and emanated......
The strong sense of oppression made Oliver next to him a little unbearable, and he hurriedly withdrew from the library, not participating in this "fairy fight".
The attack between the spirits only lasted for a few tens of seconds, and after a few dozen seconds, the spiritual power on the side of the door gradually gained the upper hand......
"Hey!" Tiffany let out a soft sigh, "Looks like I'm not qualified to call you a little guy anymore, Carlin; You're already stronger than me! ”
As she spoke, the female elf withdrew her mental power.
"You're still young, Chief Tiffany ......," Carlin said half-jokingly, "When you break through the seventh and eighth rings in the future, I still need you to take care of me!" ”
"Young...... Isn't it quite good at talking, no wonder that little priest of the Sun Temple is fascinated by you! Tiffany curled her hair and said with a smile: "I am more than 1,100 years old, and I will be a middle-aged old woman in a few hundred years; But you little fellow, you haven't lived the first hundred years of your life, and you're jealous of your youth...... If Mentor Kane knew that you were back, and that you had such strength, I don't know how happy I would be! ”
"Is Mentor Kane in the Spire?" Carlin has not forgotten the purpose of his trip.
"Yes!" Tiffany nodded, "Mentor Kane, he's on the very top floor of the spire right now. ”
"Can you take me to meet him?" Carlin said with a solemn face.
"Looks like there's something urgent?" Tiffany frowned as she looked at Carlin's slightly anxious look.
"Yes!" Karin whispered, and then gave a brief description of the Horde invasion, the Chen's soldiers of Hinterland, and the alliance with the trolls, and the imminent threat to Quel'Thalas.
The expression of the head of the Sunfury Library gradually became solemn, and she was obviously aware of the importance of these messages.
"Come with me...... Go straight to Mentor Kane......" she whispered, then took Carlin's hand and walked up the stairs.
