After reading the entire letter, Wu Ming wanted to say two words...... Nima. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Why is it because I am too busy to write a reply, and these words are not believed by a three-year-old child, let alone an adult.

Wu Ming knew very well that being too busy and the like was just an excuse, and the only reason why Balthazar didn't write a reply was that he didn't want to pay attention to him. And now I'm writing again, it's just that I'm afraid that Dave is learning magic for the first time, and I want to find a babysitter for Dave.

"You want me to be a babysitter for Dave, it's a real crackle. But this is also an opportunity, now that Balthazar has been sealed, his treasured magic books can't be cheapened to collect scrap. ”

Wu Ming touched his chin and saw more from the letter.

As the descendant of the White Wizard Merlin, Balthazar must have accumulated a lot of value over the millennium, which is currently ownerless.

If you take a few magic books from Balthazar's collection in the name of taking care of Dave, I'm afraid that after Balthazar gets out of trouble, he won't care. When the time comes, ask this stingy ghost some questions, and with the white wizard's code of conduct, he will definitely not refuse.

Well, Lu Buwei has a saying, it seems to be a strange commodity.

Wu Ming's small abacus crackled, and he felt that this business was not only not a loss, but also a profit.

With a calculation in his heart, Wu Ming no longer hesitated, packed his things and started to go to New York.

The next day, Wu Ming, who returned to New York again, was in a good mood and found Balthazar, the antique shop where he was hiding.

... Click....

Gently pushing open the door of the store, even after a day, the magic fluctuations inside still did not subside, indicating that there had been a big battle here.

Wu Ming looked around the store, first using the two magic spells of cleaning and repair, to completely erase the traces of the great war. Finally, his gaze moved slightly, and he locked on the clay pot left behind by the Hunter dynasty.

The clay pots left over from the Hunter Dynasty look quaint and atmospheric, with only one flaw.

This somewhat flawed portrait has two portraits that do not fit the characteristics of the Hunter period.

One of them, who looked nine points like Balthazar, wore a black leather coat. The other is a middle-aged man with a scepter and a top hat on his head.

"Hi Balthazar!"

Seeing the portrait of Balthazar on the porcelain vase, Wu Ming already understood everything.

He ran his fingers lightly over the lid of the clay pot, and with a somewhat teasing smile on his face, he strolled towards the second floor.

The antique shop is divided into two floors, the first floor has antiques collected by Balthazar over the millennia, as well as a small number of magical items. On the second floor, there is a sleeping bedroom and kitchen.

Wu Ming's eyes were like torches, sweeping the layout here.

Through the still open window, with the vegetables cut in half on the cutting board, he could imagine the suddenness of the incident.

Otherwise, Balthazar, who was fully prepared, decided not to use the porcelain vase from the Hunt dynasty, and ended up being sealed for ten years.

Jingle bells...

With the sound of pushing the door, the wind chimes downstairs rang in the wind.

Sensing that someone was coming in, Wu Ming frowned, showed the ruby ring on his hand, got up and walked downstairs.

Downstairs was a freckled little boy, who looked to be eight or nine years old, and his eyes were very bright.

"Hello, Dave!"

The little boy's appearance was not special, what was special was the things in his hands that made Wu Ming recognize his identity at a glance.

Dragon Ring...... The inheritance token of the White Wizard Merlin lineage was firmly attached to the little boy's finger.

As if feeling the gaze of prying eyes, the ring that was originally quietly wrapped around his finger flashed a bright light under Wu Ming's observation.

"Who you are, I don't know you."

"You don't need to know me, you just need to know Balthazar's handwriting."

Wu Ming ignored the vigilance in the bear child's gaze, because he knew how to dispel the other party's doubts.

Quite simply, Balthazar's letter to Wu Ming contained the imprint of magic that every mage has.

Wu Ming took out the envelope directly from his pocket and sent it to Dave's eyes with the hand of a mage, as for whether Dave could understand this magic mark, this should not be a problem.

Sending Balthazar's letter, Wu Ming leaned on the corridor of the staircase, calmly waiting.

After waiting for a few minutes, Dave put down the letter in silence, and the vigilance in his eyes had dissipated a lot.

"Listen, Dave. I don't know if Balthazar ever mentioned me to you, but believe me that I was invited by Balthazar. Of course, I know that trust between the two sides will take time to build. And before that, you'd better dissipate the magic you've been secretly accumulating, after all, it's very rude! ”

Wu Ming walked down the stairs step by step, although there was no praise in his mouth, but there was a look of appreciation on his face.

After all, Dave in front of him is obviously only nine years old. But now he has learned to guard against others, and is ready to secretly attack at any time.

Although the magic fluctuations in the air revealed his intentions.

But Wu Ming still has to admit that this is only because Dave has not mastered the silent spell, otherwise he would have done better.

I have to say that in the past few months by Balthazar's side, Dave has really mastered something.

I believe that as long as Dave is given time to grow, the future growth will be limitless, and I am afraid this is why Balthazar asked himself to come over.

Think about what you can do in ten years.

If Wu Ming hadn't appeared, Dave would have not been abandoned in the past ten years, and he would definitely have been neglected because no one urged him.

But Balthazar chose to gamble, betting that Wu Ming would not break his oath and fall to the side of the dark wizard. And will be driven by interests, to help himself take care of Dave for ten years.

Good calculation, I have to say, Balthazar's calculation of human nature is very good.

Even at this moment, Wu Ming realized that it seemed that he had taken advantage, but Balthazar definitely did not suffer.

To sum it up in more words, it's a simple win-win.

Wu Mingjiu occupies the magpie's nest, can get Balthazar's inheritance, and ten years later, he can even more friendship with each other.

And although Balthazar did not directly benefit, he was able to find another enlightenment teacher for Dave during the ten years he was trapped, so as not to waste this precious ten years.

Wu Ming still knows a little about Balthazar.

He knew that Balthazar's greatest concern was to find the Merlin heirs. And the reason why Merlin's heirs were found was not only because of Merlin's deathbed entrustment, but also because he wanted to kill Mogana and save his girlfriend.

So this decade, whether it is for Dave or for Balthazar, is crucial.

This in itself is a race against time, and whoever can get ahead of the game will be able to take more initiative.

Thinking about the twists and turns in this, Wu Ming's mentality quietly changed, and he already regarded himself as half the master here.

But before that, he had to ask about the battle between Horvas and Balthazar.

"Dave, tell me what happened, I want to know what happened yesterday."

"Yes, yes sir."

Dave doesn't know what kind of calculations Wu Ming, who treats him as a strange commodity in a short period of time.

The child's mind is still relatively simple, even if Dave is a little adult, he still said without reservation: "Yesterday afternoon, the tutor prepared dinner upstairs and let me play alone below. I found a lot of strange things here, and they were hidden in all corners, it was like a treasure hunt. ”

Speaking of this, Dave scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "I found a colorful matryoshka doll in the compartment of the wall, which is the kind with Russian style." But when I opened it, there were countless cockroaches coming out of it, forming a human being under my nose. ”

The man made up of cockroaches is obviously Horvath.

Wu Ming had seen this kind of magic from the Book of Merlin. Strictly speaking, this magic is not evil, and its purpose is to protect the caster from being harmed in the first place.

Apparently, when the matryoshka doll was first opened, Horvas also had no idea what was going on outside.

In this case, Horvas chose to protect himself, and with this profound magic, it can be seen that the thousand years of captivity have not regressed his strength.

"Dave, tell me more about how many spells they used in battle, and what was the order of casting."

Wu Ming simulated the scene at that time in his mind, and planned to substitute himself into it to see how far he could go in the face of such a battle scene.

Dave struggled to recall everything that happened at that time, and Wu Ming generated images in his mind to restore the battle as much as possible.

First of all, the released Horvas, the first time he got out of trouble, he used a cockroach stand-in.

The fluctuations in the mana brought about by the cockroach stand-in led Balthazar, who was cooking on the second floor.

Balthazar rushed down quickly, and the moment he saw Horvas, the magic that had been prepared flew out.

It was a powerful restraint spell, a rope formed by the spell that knocked Horvath into the air.

And Horvath was not slow to react, he quickly launched a counterattack, and while cutting the ropes on his body, he summoned smoke to block the vision of both sides.

In the thick fog, there was a temporary silence between the two sides.

At that time, Balthazar prepared two commonly used magic, namely the mage shield and the ion light ball.

Horvas, on the other hand, chose the muddy swamp, and after the ground beneath his feet turned into a swamp, he chose the levitation technique.

Balthazar, who cared about Dave's safety, was the first to lose his breath in this battle and began to walk down the stairs in search of Hovath.

The swamp spell was triggered by the invading Balthazar, devouring half of Balthazar's body and immobilizing him in the mire.

At the same time, Hovath, who had already made use of the levitation technique, chose to take off and began to disperse the smoke.

The smoke cleared, and Horvas came to the top of Balthazar's head, ready to kill with one blow.

Below, Balthazar, who was very experienced in combat, sensed in advance the line of Horvas's possible attack.

When Horvas descended from the sky and intended to kill Balthazar with one blow, Balthazar chose to rush into the sky and knocked Horvath straight out.

The scene of the battle between the two great magicians, along with Dave's narration, was shown in Wu Ming's mind little by little.

Wu Ming only lasted thirteen minutes from the beginning of Horvas's escape to Balthazar's use of the Hunter Dynasty's porcelain vase to seal Horvas with himself.

In just thirteen minutes, both sides used six spells each, and the final result was a defeat for both sides.

Wu Ming substituted himself into it, trying to replace either side.

For the first time, he was replaced by Horvas, who was easily killed by Balthazar because it took too long to break free from the restraining spell.

The second time, instead of Balthazar, he did not choose to go down the stairs, but was killed by Horvas, who approached silently using the Levitation Charm.

After trying more than a dozen times in a row, Wu Ming's best result was only to support seven minutes, and then he was killed by the other party.

Cast speed, spell continuity, rational application of terrain.

Although the battle between the two sides has not been long, there is not a single high-level magic appear.

However, relying on the combination of ordinary magic and the fighting wisdom between each other, the gap between the two sides is still staggering.

Go down in flames......

Wu Ming slowly opened his eyes, he didn't have any excuses for failure, he just fell into deep thought.
