Thanks to Elsa's slow and steady car, Horus enjoyed the scenery along the way in Ellington. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Horus was a big hit by this unusual city, and it seemed to be full of new things, especially the many products that clearly had the shadow of alchemy on them, and they could give Horus some sparkling ideas every once in a while.

However, unlike a hundred years ago, after all these years of penance in the Arctic Ice Sheet, Horus's personality is no longer as crazy as before, but gradually settles down, becoming more calm and charming.

If he appears on the big screen projected by magic energy at this moment, I am afraid that he will become a charming middle-aged idol star in an instant, with a pair of deep eyes and a face full of vicissitudes, he can definitely fascinate those little girls.

Now Horus, completely lost his original edge, has become more restrained, but also more deep, years of seclusion life has given him enough time to reflect on what he has done in the past, he knows very well how much harm he once created the Sleepless has brought to this world, if it were not for the dragon to take action, I am afraid that the Sleepless will become the culprit of the destruction of Purandal.

After thinking about the past, Horus sealed all the dangerous alchemy he had conceived, and never tried it again, all these years, he had been thinking about only one problem, how to completely solve the threat of the Sleepless.

However, before he could solve the problem, he discovered that his apprentice, Aldrich Harris, had suddenly disappeared.

At first, Horus didn't realize that he was leaving, but thought that he might not be able to endure the ascetic life and went out to relax, but after not returning for several years, Horus finally realized that something was not right.

After careful examination, Horus realized the seriousness of the problem when he realized that the manuscript of the Sleepless Man appeared to have been turned over.

In order to prevent possible accidents, Horus had to break his oath and set foot on the land again, starting to find his apprentice.

Unfortunately, Aldrich knew him too well, and he knew how to avoid his tracking, so Horus never found Aldrich all the way south.

Thankfully, so far, there has been no news of the Sleepless Ones wreaking havoc.

So, Horus decided to come to Ellington, where the watchmen lived......

The magic car slowly stopped, and Horus came to his senses: "We're here?" ”

"No, this is the Magic Energy Engineering Research Institute, it's still a little far from my house, I'll get out of the car to do something, you wait here for a while."

Elsa finished laughing, opened the car door and ran down in a hurry, directly into the building in front of her.

"Magic Engineering Research Institute?"

Horus's eyes lit up, although he didn't know what it was about, but just by hearing the name, he knew that this was definitely a place full of mysterious knowledge!

If it weren't for the fear that his rash appearance would cause a misunderstanding, Horus would have followed up to see it - he noticed that there were guards standing guard in front of the building, which was probably a very important institution.

A moment later, two figures came out of it, and the man who walked in front was holding a large box, even blocking his body.

Elsa next to her babbled and said, "So I can move this thing myself, and there is no need for you to help me move ......"

A flat voice came from behind the boxes: "Elsa-sama, please don't say any more, now that I am atoning for my sins, and I am still in my apprenticeship, doing chores here is what I should do...... These things in the trunk? ”

Well?

Horus in the car was stunned, and the voice ...... Sound familiar?

"Well, put it in, it's all I'm going to use later, alas, war or something is really annoying......"

"Lord Elsa, although this war was started by His Majesty Donn, he must have a reason to force it, His Majesty Donn is a very great and merciful king, if anyone can save this world, I am afraid it must be him...... Alright, Elsa-sama, then I won't send you, I'll go back to cleaning......"

What a familiar sound......

Horus sat there, the voice that brought back memories in his heart, it seemed to be the voice of someone who was very, very important to him, but he couldn't remember it for a moment......

Elsa smiled and waved her hand: "Okay, okay, then you go back, thank you, Rodriguez, I'll help you say good things when I go back, so that you can join the official project team as soon as possible." ”

"Then I'm so grateful to you, I really can't wait to study that knowledge with them."

Horus actually heard a trace of joy from that flat voice, but immediately after, Horus trembled like a lightning strike, and he instantly rushed out of the carriage, and exclaimed: "Teacher!? ”

The man turned around slowly, revealing a slightly pale face, with a faint curiosity in his pupils, and when he saw Horus, a trace of confusion flashed on Rodriguez's face, and he frowned and thought carefully for a moment before he suddenly realized.

No?

No, it's not! Although the appearance has changed a little, it is clearly Mr. Rodriguez!

Horus was pleasantly surprised, he never expected that he would be here, in this remote city, to see his mysteriously disappeared teacher again!

You know, a long time ago, Horus thought that his teacher had lost the power of time and died!

He's still alive!?

"Are you...... Horus. ”

Rodriguez finally pulled out a name from the corner of his memory, and gradually matched that name with the middle-aged man in front of him: "Yes, you are Horus, my only apprentice." ”

"Teacher! It's really you! ”

Horus's expression was very strange at this moment, as if he wanted to express shock and ecstasy, but after years of seclusion, he had almost lost his rich expressive ability, so the muscles on his face were distorted, and he looked very strange.

Elsa blinked and asked in a low voice, "Hey, Rodriguez, do you have a grudge against your apprentice?" How do I see him as if he had seen an enemy? ”

“……”

Rodriguez was speechless: "Elsa-sama laughed. ”

After saying that, he looked at Horus and asked, "Why are you here?" ”

"Teacher, I, I am, I am because of ...... Come find an old friend. ”

Horus opened his mouth, but it was too secretive for him to talk nonsense.

What's more, when the Second Chaos Invasion War was in the beginning, the teacher did not appear, which means that he did not participate in that war and was not one of the insiders of the Sleepless One, can this news be revealed to him?

What's more, there are other people next to it.

Horus hesitated again and again, and decided to hide it for the time being, anyway, he had already found the teacher, and the two of them would sit together and talk slowly when they had a chance in the future.

But......

"Teacher, why are you in a strange state?"

Horus changed the subject, and he found that his teacher was in a strange state, and although he seemed to be alive on the surface, there was a very contradictory dead air around him, and it was strange that the two forces had not yet clashed.

Rodriguez said self-deprecatingly: "Strange? I'm a lich now, and it's normal to be weird, but it's better to say that I'm in my current state thanks to the power of His Majesty Donn. ”

"What!? Lich!? ”

Horus was taken aback: "You have transformed yourself into a lich!?" ”

The news was so shocking that Horus couldn't even believe it was true.

Although he knew that his teacher had studied necromancy, he didn't expect that he would choose this path in the end!

Rodriguez waved his hand: "Apparently this is true...... Well, I'm glad to see you, but I'm going back to cleaning now, and if you're interested, I'll invite you to sit in the tavern after I get off work in the afternoon, and we'll have a drink and talk. ”

Although Horus was looking forward to having a good time with the teacher, he noticed something even more painful: "Teacher, what did you just say?" Are you going to ...... Cleaning? You, here, actually have to clean the laboratory yourself!? ”

The excited Horus just thought that this Magic Energy Engineering Research Institute was an institution led by his own teacher! Looking at the whole of Plandal, who else can create so many wonderful products except his own amazing teacher?

But...... Such a great teacher actually has to clean up himself?

"It's not cleaning the lab."

Horus breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's that the sanitation of the entire Magic Energy Engineering Research Institute needs me to clean it."

Rodriguez said calmly: "Actually, my job here at the moment is to clean, serve tea and water, and do some chores. ”

Burst!

Horus choked on his chest, almost spurting out a mouthful of old blood.

What did he hear!? His great, omniscient teacher, working at this Magic Energy Engineering Research Institute, turned out to be a miscellaneous man?!?

Who exactly!? Is he blind and doesn't know his teacher!?

He's Rodriguez Hohenheim, who created the Golden Statue Legion!

"Teacher! You're—"

"Needless to say Horus, I know what you're trying to say."

Rodriguez relentlessly stopped Horus's words: "There are so many things you don't know...... If you have the chance, you can go in here and see for yourself, and by that time, you'll know how far we have come from him......"

Rodriguez suddenly remembered what Donn had said and sighed: "...... We have been slapped to death by the tide of technological reform. ”

"He? The owner of this Magical Engineering Research Institute? ”

Horus was very ridiculous to find that he actually saw a deep admiration and adoration on his teacher's face!?

Who is it? Who exactly has this qualification!?

"Hmm."

Rodriguez nodded: "Lord of Ellington, master of the Tang Chamber of Commerce, regent of the Ilrus Empire, Your Majesty Don." ”
