One hundred and two Theresa Eric
The two of them sneakily wandered around Azerol Academy.
The reason why they say that they are wandering is because they don't take the straight road at all. Because there were too many patrolling knights on the main path to the Ministry of Magic, and these knights carried lanterns in their hands, lighting up almost half of the campus. From time to time, a cloaked wizard hurried by, setting a flame at a suspicious place.
So the two of them had an extremely difficult time. It feels like the "Stealth" level has suddenly been raised from the entry level to the nightmare level.
"Why are they so bold all of a sudden?" Bai Yiquan asked in a suppressed voice, "Could it be that they have already found a way to deal with the big snake?"
"I don't know. Lily shook her head, "They don't seem to care about drawing out the serpent at all, they care more about us." ”
"We?"
"This kind of posture is obviously better against outsiders than against the big snake, although I don't think they have found a way to defeat the big snake, but at least it shows that they have a countermeasure. ”
"What can be done?"
Lily shook her head, indicating that she didn't know. Bai Yiquan was a little anxious, he and Lily were hiding behind an old locust tree, less than fifty meters in front of them was the church where the wizards did [Mu Ling] a few days ago, and it was at least five or six hundred meters away from Kuntina's dormitory.
A few nights ago, when there was almost no one in the academy, these five or six hundred meters were still quite easy to walk, and if you were a little careful, you wouldn't be discovered. But now it's different, there is a night watchman almost every fifty meters, and there are quite a few wizards on guard. The difficulty of going through here without being discovered can be imagined, he is not the ninja of "Tenju" (a PSP game), and the Night Watchman is not a brain-dead Yamato samurai, and the protagonist is invisible to his nose.
"What now?" Bai Yiquan asked, "Go back first?"
Lily didn't speak immediately, but thought for a moment and looked at the church in front of her, "That's where the wizards hold their [Muling], right?"
Bai Yiquan nodded.
"There seems to be someone inside. ”
"Someone?" Bai Yiquan was stunned, "It's dark inside, how do you know that there are people?"
"Having said it, intuition. Lily said, "Let's go first and take a look, after all, this is the place where the [Muling] is held, and look for clues." If you find the best, if you can't find it, you can only leave first, after all, neither of us is suitable for infiltrating. ”
Bai Yiquan hesitated for a while, and found that there seemed to be no better choice, so he had to agree. When the two of them were far away in the Night Watchman, they quickly slipped into the church. Less than a minute after they slipped into the church, a wizard passed by the old locust tree and lit up the space behind the old locust tree with flames.
"Senior sister, your intuition is really divine!" Bai Yiquan said happily, "We will be discovered a little later." ”
"Be quiet!" Lily said in a low voice, "Grab the gun, and come with me now." ”
Bai Yiquan didn't dare to be sloppy, and hurriedly took the Desert Eagle out of his armor and cautiously followed behind Lily. The two pressed their steps, and soon came to the main hall, where there was a desk in the center of the hall, and an oil lamp was placed on the table. The candle flame emitted a faint glow, barely illuminating the hall while casting a figure onto the floor.
It was a wizard in robes, and the two of them couldn't see the wizard's face clearly due to the angle. The only thing to see was the wizard writing with a quill pen, his bare hands like withered branches.
"Theresa Eric. Lily revealed the identity of the wizard.
"What is she doing?" Bai Yiquan asked in a low voice, "Do you write a diary?"
"I don't know. Lily shook her head, "But don't you think it's too strange to be alone in this place at this time, just writing a diary?" And the people of Nil Ghani rarely have the habit of keeping a diary, and we prefer to have oil paintings to record the past. ”
"Sounds philosophical. ”
"Stop talking nonsense, let's go up and have a look. ”
Bai Yiquan nodded. The two continued to tiptoe to the broom room on the second floor, which is where Bai Yiquan and Thomas hid a few days ago, and from here you can see the whole picture of the hall on the first floor. Little by little, he poked his head out and realized that the old witch was really writing something. Looking down from above, you can see that there are three or four parchment books stacked together on her left-hand side.
"Why do you always like to use sheepskin to make paper?" Bai Yiquan asked puzzled, "Don't you think it's a luxury? Could it be that Nil Gani doesn't have ordinary paper?" ”
"If you mean wood, of course there is. But those things that are only used by civilians are not very suitable for writing, after all, there is no one named Cai Lun in Nil Gani. Parchment was only used by nobles and wizards, and was basically used to record more important things, such as the history of the kingdom. ”
"And novels?"
"Yes, and novels, but don't tell me that Theresa Eric stayed here late at night just to write a novel. Lily glanced at Bai Yiquan, "It's better to get rid of the meaningless complaints." ”
Bai Yiquan scratched his head a little embarrassed: "Then what now?"
And so on. Lily slowly spat out a word.
"What are you waiting for?"
"Wait for her to leave. "I feel like what she writes is the key." As long as we figure out what she writes, we might know most of the things. ”
"I agree with you, but isn't it stupid to wait for her? What if she doesn't leave all night? What if she takes what she wrote with her when she leaves? Don't you think it's better to just go down and knock her out?"
Lily rolled her eyes, "Okay, you're going?"
"Well, I'm not as good as you. And in our world's culture, it is immoral to beat the elderly. ”
Lily cut off, then said, "You think I don't want to, but since Teresa Eric can be the chief of Azerol Academy, can you think of her as a bad old lady? ”
Bai Yiquan was just about to speak, but Teresa suddenly put down the quill pen, and then got up and left the main hall.
He was dumbfounded: "Isn't it, it's really gone?"
"Good chance, come with me. ”
Lily turned around and left, and Bai Yiquan hurriedly followed. The two of them came from the second floor to the first floor almost in the blink of an eye, Lily quickly walked to the table and began to look through the contents of the parchment, while Bai Yiquan couldn't understand Nil Ghani's words, so he had to stand in place, scratching his ears and cheeks, like a monkey.
As the minutes ticked by, the candle devoured the fuel in the lamp, but Lily didn't speak, but her face turned pale a little.
"How is that possible?" muttered Lily.
"How is it possible? What is written on it?" Bai Yiquan asked anxiously, "Wait any longer, that old witch will come back!"
"Wait. Lily took a deep breath and went to the other three parchments, "I'm going to make sure." ”
"Don't be sure. A cold voice sounded, "Little girl, your guess is not wrong. ”
The two of them stiffened, and slowly turned their heads to see Theresa Eric standing in front of the main hall door, her turquoise eyes like deadly toxins.
"I'm not someone who likes to share secrets. Teresa said slowly, "So now that you already know, you can leave with the secret." ”
