35 pounds of calculating dragons
"Dear uncle, I beg you!"
Frang pushed open the door to the wizard's office - it was a privilege he had earned after five years of hard work, after all, the office was not a critical area, it was usually the place where the wizard would review documents and handle chores as an administrator of the institute, if it was a working laboratory - you dare to go inside without knocking?
No, the correct rule in that case should be: Do you dare to knock on the door and try?
As soon as Frang entered, he saw the fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy pleading with the wizard's thigh, who was smoking a hookah, and the long, soft pipe was half through the water bottle, and the smoke mixed with the smell of the special perfume in the water bottle was spitting out of the wizard's nose.
The wizard had a very clean face, like a classic cardinal wizard - not even a single hair, a rune drawn on his bald head, only a clean stroke that spread from between his eyebrows to the left back of his head, and his serious expression and upright sitting posture made him look very majestic, but his bearing was a little old-fashioned.
He smoked a hookah with a blank face, ignoring the apprentice who was holding his shin and crying, and Frang shrugged helplessly, knowing the wizard's temper and not saying a word, at least indicating that the wizard had refused three times.
The Cardinal Wizard Crowley Sarn is a notoriously old-fashioned man, and if he refuses three times, he will never say no a fourth.
"Little master. He sighed and pulled up the boy on the ground: "Please let Master Sarn work in peace." ”
"No, uncle, tell me, tell me! I must tell me why! I am willing to dedicate my soul to you, which can already guarantee that I will not betray you! What are you afraid of?" The young man who stood up was still excited: "That damn prophecy?"
“...... It's the rule. Crowley Sarn spat out a shisha puff: "Rules are rules, nothing to do with prophecy, Adi, I believe you will not betray me, and I cannot break the rules I have set for myself because of your loyalty." ”
The boy was lost and depressed, and stood there motionless.
"The fluctuations of the magic aura tell me that something unusual is happening in the institute, isn't it?" Sarn asked, turning to Franger.
"Yes, sir, the visitor is outside. Frang leaned down and pulled out a piece of paper.
......
Eight leaves, pansy.
"Hoo ......"
Sarn stared at the pattern, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he let out a long sigh and stood up.
Frang looked at the wizard in amazement, his body was six and a half feet high, and he looked unusually burly in this office, he grabbed the paper in Frang's hand and walked out, and then he saw the white dragon staring at the wall in a daze.
He was visibly stunned for a moment, then stared at the white dragon for a long time.
"Did you come to me through that door with this?" he asked.
"It's obvious. Bai Long bowed politely: "You are the mentor I am looking for?"
"If that's right, it should be. Crowley nodded, but the young man behind him became excited, but after only a few seconds of excitement, his face showed a strange mockery and cruelty, and quietly disappeared in the corridor, Crowley and Frange just glanced back, and then projected their eyes on the little white dragon in front of them: "Interesting, it is really unprecedented to have a paranoid type of law addiction at such a young age, do you need me to study it and figure out the reason for you?"
"Nope. The white dragon shook his head: "According to the Eight Leaves Tower Teaching Safety Treaty, this request of yours violates the prohibition clause of Article 37, Paragraph 16 of the Prohibition of Sensitive Experiments, if you force this, I think I should teleport back to the Eight Leaves Tower." ”
He spat out the Circle of Treaties and quickly swallowed it back.
"Oh~ little guy who lacks trust in the world. Crowley Sahn shook his head disapprovingly: "Take out the treaty, we can sign it now, and then your studies here can begin." ”
"Not yet, Dear Mr. Mentor. Bai Long took a step back: "Please declare that it belongs to my safe area before signing the treaty, the area scope must not be less than 2,000 square feet, the average space height shall not be less than 10 feet, the height standard deviation shall not be greater than 3 feet, it must include the data storage area and the private experimental space, it must be interconnected, it must reach the exit, the perimeter of the area must be closed, the narrowest area must not be less than 10 feet, all these standards are in line with the regulations of the Tower of Eight Leaves, please be sure to implement them." ”
"Oh~ my future apprentice, don't you think your request is too straightforward and your attitude seems a bit rude?"
With the words of the white dragon, Crowley Sarn's already serious face became more serious, and his tone became stern.
"Mentor, I follow the rules of the Eight Leaves Tower, if you think my attitude is too direct, it is because I follow the concept of 'villain first and then gentleman', and my identity does not allow me to be cautious. Bai Long's tone was also very stiff.
The man stared at each other so hard that Frang almost fainted, and he thought that the world must be out of order for him to encounter such a strange thing on this strange day.
First, a white dragon came out of the teleportation array that had not moved for five years or more, claiming to be the apprentice of the wizard master, and when he thought it was a joke, the wizard master actually recognized it!
This apprentice is so rude!
The Tower of Eight Leaves, by the way, I heard that the wizard stayed in the Eight Leaves when he was young.
Frang was dumbfounded, and he also wondered.
He began to wonder a little about the days that followed.
"Negotiate the contract like a calculating devil first, and then fulfill the contract like a pure and trustworthy celestial?" Crowley Sarn stared at Bai He for a while, and a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, looking like he was not smiling, but it made Bai He strangely feel that there seemed to be some sincerity in it: "Your words are very interesting and worthy of praise. ”
"The wisdom of the ancients is only. Bai Hadao: "Mr. Mentor, can we start?"
"Yes, come with me. Crowley Sarn walked most of the way down the corridor and into a huge laboratory on the second floor: "This laboratory is your safe area from today onwards, the storage compartment next to it can store materials, I believe all the rules are met, as for the exit, I allow you to knock a hole in the wall, and you can go through a passage to the balcony on the second floor, well, where is also your safe zone." ”
"Thank you. Shirakawa walked into the library, pulled out a thick dozen treaties, wrote a few lines of safe area declaration underneath, signed his dragon name and lingua franca, and handed it to Crowley.
The red-robed wizard smiled coldly, took out a quill and signed his name on the contract.
The thin contract glowed with brilliant eight-colored brilliance the moment the two names were signed, and then it burst into flames and gradually disappeared into the void.
Bai He keenly felt that something was entangled with him and the tall red-robed and bald man opposite, and he frowned, probably knowing that with the conclusion of this contract, he would also really be connected to the Tower of Eight Leaves.
Crowley Sarn frowned at the same time, he took out a mirror and threw it to Bai He: "After a while, I will ask the servant to send you the teaching materials and teaching materials for the first stage, don't disturb me if you have nothing to do, every week on the day of the earth and the moon is the Q&A time from 8 am to 6 pm, and there is an interruption of 11 o'clock for an hour, you can put this mirror in the center of the room during these hours, and my mirror will answer all the questions that arise during your research, and ...... in addition"
He approached the white dragon, and his tall figure seemed very oppressive:
"According to the treaty, if you leave the safe zone, you will lose all security guarantees from me. ”
He straightened up: "By the way, if someone else trespasses into your safe area without permission, if I don't expel them, you can kill them, it's allowed by the treaty." ”
"You are generous and thoughtful, Your Excellency. Bai He praised heartily.
"I've always been generous and thoughtful, especially for a discerning apprentice like you. Crowley Sarn once again showed a non-smiling expression, he glanced at Shirakawa and turned to leave the newly baked safe area.
Shirakawa noticed that Crowley Sain's face finally shook very unnaturally. He put away the dragon's hypocritical smile, checked the situation in the safe area, and lay down in the center of the laboratory, closing his eyes and resting.
He's been busy for a long time, and it seems safe here.
Of course, it's just seeming.
