Chapter 45: Departure
Three days after the invasion of the Second Academy, which caused a sensation in the imperial capital. At this time, the second academy has basically returned to its former appearance, and the second academy is also a national academy no matter how it was said, and the day after the attack, the imperial capital has sent a large number of alchemists and earth magicians, and in just two days, all the damaged buildings were restored to their original state. It's just that the vegetation that has been burned by fire seems a little unrealistic to recover by magic, and it still maintains a charred black appearance. Although the blood stains have been cleared, the blood that remains in the air still reminds people that this place has suffered a major attack.
......
"You're saying that the whole thing is in the driver's seat?" Today, three days later, after the affairs of the Second Academy were a little more secure, Rangol personally came to the Second Academy to offer condolences, and in Bai Ye's office, Rangol listened to Bai Ye's description and asked rhetorically.
"That's right, it's him, otherwise I wouldn't have gotten nothing out of it. Bai Ye still said with a lingering mind.
"Didn't Chen Zhe chase after him too, neither of them could do anything to him?" asked Farangol suspiciously. There are only a few gods in the camp, there are only a few in total, which person has how many catties and two they all have in their hearts, among the three of Sikongdi, Bai Ye, and Chen Zhe, Chen Zhe is undoubtedly the most powerful, as for Bai Ye and Sikong Di, at least Bai Ye will not lose to Sikong Di, and in the case of two to one, he can still be left safely by the other party, how can he make Rangol not be puzzled.
"Don't mention this person, I'll be angry if you say it. If he hadn't become, he wouldn't have been like this. Bai Ye said angrily.
"What's the matter? Isn't he still helping Sikong?" asked Farangall, somewhat confused.
"Hmph, blatantly helping, I don't think he has the courage to do so. If he hadn't got, I'd already be planning to do it with Sikong. Although the location is in the suburbs, it will inevitably hurt the general public, but if the Divine Domain is opened, it can still control the affected personnel within a relatively small range. And when the time comes, if the imperial capital asks, I can also blame Sikong for the cause of the accident, at least if I do it, even if I can't take him down, I will definitely let him leave something behind. "Bai Ye is very frank about his thoughts and thoughts, and he trusts Frankol very much.
"Drag the ordinary people into the battle? In this case, Chen Zhe didn't do anything wrong, right?" After listening to Bai Ye's narration, Rangol frowned and thought for a while, and said approvingly.
"Hey, when did you have such a tacit understanding? Don't you know what kind of character I am? Do you think I will be because of Chen Zhe's words. Just change my attention?" said Bai Ye dissatisfiedly.
"You mean...... Chen Zhe had planned to let Sikong go?" After Bai Ye's reminder, Rangol also figured out a lot of questions. Indeed, as Bai Ye said, if Chen Zhe just held the idea that it could not affect the people, Bai Ye would definitely not take into account Chen Zhe's feelings and force his action. And Bai Ye didn't make a move, which means that Chen Zhe has other ideas, which makes the cautious and sensitive Bai Ye aware of something.
"I don't know, but I always think it's more than that. Bai Ye replied with some vagueness.
"It's not that simple, no matter what, he's also the marshal of the imperial capital, even if he used to be friends with Sikong, but he won't stop it, right? In the future, you should pay more attention to what you say, and it is better to avoid this kind of vague negative remarks as much as possible. Rangol admonished.
"Who else do you think this is going to be said out of this office? As for Chen Zhe. To be honest, he doesn't have to make a move, as long as the people will be involved, he is sure enough to contain me. Bai Ye said aggrievedly.
"That's the end of the conversation. That's right. What is the purpose of the clearing, do you know now?" asked Rangol digressively.
"I had some clues, but I always felt that it wasn't just for that purpose. Bai Ye said with some contradictions.
"For what purpose?" asked Frangore, not understanding.
"Do you remember Zuo Congrong?" Bai Ye asked.
"Of course I do. The boy was too impressive. Obviously he is an incapable young man in his early twenties, but he can exude god-level spiritual coercion, such a feeling, I have only tasted it once in such a long life, how can I forget. Frangol remembers it vividly.
"Who do you think he could be?" asked Bai Ye.
"Who is it? Isn't it Zuo Congwen's younger brother? Is there any other identity...... You mean him?" asked Fargore, tentatively as he guessed what he had said.
"Yes, he's a ghost. It's also to blame me for spreading the news in the first place, so that Zuo Congrong suddenly became the focus of the camp, otherwise there might not be this disaster now. When a few of them were adventuring in the forest, they had a holiday with Guo Chuanfeng and a few others, and it was not impossible to wait for an opportunity to retaliate at this time. It's just that what makes me a little puzzled is that this Zuo Congrong is obviously an incompetent person, why do they have to take great pains to kill him even if they tear their faces with the imperial capital?"
It's no wonder that Bai Ye can't figure it out, let alone Bai Ye, it's just that even the leader of this disaster, Sikong Di, is a little unable to figure out what kind of benefit an obvious sneak attack that is not proportional to the gain is good for their organization. This sneak attack, whether it was for Sikong Di and others, or for the imperial capital, was a big blow. After the imperial capital was calm for thousands of years, it was attacked twice by foreign enemies in more than ten years, causing two killings, and Sikong Di and others exposed them from the darkness in front of the imperial capital in advance, so that the emperor had a sense of defense.
"Are you saying that their purpose is to intercept and kill Zuo Congrong?" Let him be in a high position and have a lot of calculations, he didn't expect that such a sensational event in the imperial capital, such a crazy plan, just to kill an insignificant incapacitated person, Rangol was stunned.
"I don't believe it either, but according to Ziyuan's on-site information report, judging from the details of Lu Tonghai's conversations and actions, it seems that this is the case. By the way, except for Lu Tonghai, the other characters are dressed the same as the murderers of the Zuo Xiangfu murder case thirteen years ago. Bai Ye said.
"That's right...... How's the Aster?" Rangol sighed after hearing the information given by the White Night, and asked again after a long time.
"It's fine. At her age, it was enough to behave like that. โ
"Yes......"
โกโกโก
While White Night and Frankol were talking. Zuo Congrong has now left the imperial capital and appeared on the road he walked when he first entered the imperial capital. Zuo Congrong's injuries are indeed fatal to others, but after the fatal wounds are healed, there is no difficulty in treating other wounds on the body, for Bai Ye, it only takes one day, Zuo Congrong's body has recovered, and the rest is just a long-term nourishing work to slowly recover his energy.
After three days of recuperation, Zuo Congrong, who was lying on the hospital bed, also inquired about the situation of the Second Academy from his companions. Because of his own relationship, the Second Academy suffered such trauma, and Zuo Congrong, who felt guilty, felt that he could no longer stay in the Second Academy, so after bidding farewell to Bai Ye, he took his own things and embarked on a journey of one person again.
......
"Dean!"
"What's wrong?" Bai Ye, who was a slightly tired person in the leather chair and raised his head to ask, was in the office where there was no one on weekdays, and there was a constant flow of people coming and going these days.
"I want to take a leave of absence. Leave the Second Academy. Zuo Congrong stared at Bai Ye and said word by word.
"What are you doing when you leave the Second Academy?" Bai Ye, who was still a little tired, suddenly sat up after hearing Zuo Congrong's words, and said with a straight face.
"The academy was destroyed like this, all because of me. I ......," Zuo Congrong said guiltily.
"But how can you keep yourself safe when you leave the second academy. Your eldest brother has entrusted you to me, and this time he almost lost your life, and he can't let you go outside again. Don't look at the Second Academy under attack. It is precisely because of this that the Second Academy is the safest now, and they will definitely not dare to come to the Second Academy to make trouble again. Bai Ye also knew the reason why Zuo Congrong was leaving here. So I didn't mention that aspect, but just persuaded from the security aspect.
"I've already thought about this, don't worry, my physical condition must be clear to the dean, self-healing is very fast, and there will be no problems. And those people probably think that I am dead now, and they should not send strong people to hunt me down again, and besides, I don't even have ability fluctuations now, and it is difficult for the strong people to find out my location. It's here, if you continue to stay here, it's really worse than death!" Zuo Congrong said stubbornly.
โ...... If you don't get used to it, it's not too late to leave. Bai Ye persuaded again.
"Forget it, the effect is the same for how long you stay, the longer you stay, the more tormented it will be for me, and leaving at this time may be the best result. Zuo Congrong insisted again.
"Then before you leave, you have to talk to your friends, as far as I know, you still have some good friends here. After running out of words, Bai Ye had to pin his hopes on others.
"No, I'll definitely stay after telling them, and I'll be very embarrassed when the time comes. I'll tell them when I'm gone, they have their numbers on the phone anyway, so I'll be in touch when the time comes. Zuo Congrong refused.
"Alas, where are you going to go when you leave here?" Bai Ye asked when he saw that Zuo Congrong had made up his mind, and he no longer advised.
"I don't know, I might go to other main cities, but for the time being, I'll wander around the northern forest for a few days to recuperate. Zuo Congrong said.
"No matter where you go, I think you should change your clothes, it's too eye-catching. Also, you don't have the ability to fluctuate anyway, so try to keep the phone on as much as possible, and I want to make sure I know what you're doing. Bai Ye acquiesced to Zuo Congrong's request and instructed.
"Well, I know, then I'll go first. Zuo Congrong saw that Bai Ye was relieved, and after answering a sentence, he was ready to leave.
"Wait a minute. โ
"Huh?" Just as he was about to leave the court, Bai Ye stopped Zuo Congrong again, and Zuo Congrong turned back and asked suspiciously.
"No matter where you go, don't forget, you are still a student of the Second Academy, when did you figure it out, you want to come back, this is still your alma mater, and don't forget our agreement, you are still a member of the Student Council, and when the Second Academy needs you, you still have to come back to fulfill your obligations. Finally, I will say one more thing, this situation, the fault is not you, don't put all the blame on yourself. You're still young, don't put too much pressure on yourself. Bai Ye said heavily.
"Xie Lu, Dean Xie!" Zuo Congrong said movingly.
"Alright, let's go!" Bai Ye said with a wave of his hand.
......
"Brother, where should we go now?" Xiao Kong asked with light steps and turned to Zuo Congrong.
"Where to go? yes, where should I go?" Zuo Congrong repeated again, and couldn't help but ask himself. It's only been more than half a year since my mother and brother left, and so many things have happened. He didn't even lose his abilities.
Looking back, after living so big, it seems that I have never encountered such a situation as I am now. I have lived at home since I was a child, and after I left home, I met my mother and brother again, and after my mother and brother He left, I met Brother Zuo Congwen and them in a few days, and then they went to the imperial capital, and they had Ziyuan. Zuo Congrong, who has always been accompanied. At this time, I realized what kind of mood it was to be alone, the world was big, as if there was no place for me, wandering aimlessly. After Sora asked. Zuo Congrong asked himself in confusion.
"I asked you, why are you still asking about me. After hearing Zuo Congrong's rhetorical question, Xiaokong pursed his mouth and said with an angry look.
"Huh. Why is the little guy so angry now? Let's just walk around here for a few days, get some rations for the 'stupid cat', and make plans in a few days. In the future, there may not be as comfortable a big bed and accommodation as half a year ago, so be prepared to suffer with your brother!" Zuo Congrong touched Xiao Kong's head dotingly and said. Yes, now is not the time to show cowardice, there are still two little ones who are relying on themselves, how can I reassure them. Besides, with the two of them by their side, what is there to worry about, I am not alone after all.
"This little thing, I really don't know what kind of shit luck Lu Dao has taken, so many ice pierced through, and it was almost nailed into a sieve, and this little thing was not hurt at all. Xiaokong glanced at the "stupid cat" who was trotting closely behind the two of them without heart and lungs, and said with emotion.
"Yes, it's really lucky!" Zuo Congrong recalled the situation at that time, more than a dozen ice spikes, from the legs to the shoulders, there was hardly a single intact part of the whole body, but none of the ice spikes stabbed the "stupid cat". Moreover, this little thing, under the stimulation of the bloody smell on Zuo Congrong's body and the cold air of the ice spikes, the grass woke up from the state of sleep, I really don't know how this thing dodged so many ice spikes in the case of sleep.
"Brother, we've also walked here a few times, isn't there no magical beast, let's stay here, can we get enough rations for this little thing?" Xiao Kong looked around the card and asked suspiciously.
"Yes, this is the Great Road, naturally there are few Warcraft haunted, and when you get to Moni Town, go deeper, there will be more Warcraft, don't forget what your brother used to do. Around Moni Town, the level of Warcraft should not be too high, and while getting crystal nuclei for 'stupid cats', you can also brush up on mercenary levels and get some money. Let's stay in Moni for now, there is no fixed place to go anyway. Zuo Congrong hastily determined the itinerary of the group.
"Oh, and when you go hunting, can you take me with you?" asked Sora expectantly.
"Of course I will bring it, after I turn on the synchronization, you are also a master at the fortifier level, how can I do it without you. It's not just you, but even this little guy has to do his best, otherwise do you think that I can accomplish any tasks as a person who doesn't even have the ability now?" Zuo Congrong replied.
"That's good, I haven't been out much in the past six months, so I don't have to be so troublesome in the future. Sora breathed a sigh of relief. To tell the truth, I have always been together before, since I came out of the forest, Xiaokong's activity time has indeed been squeezed and there is not much left, after all, the academy has many people, Zuo Congrong, an incapable person, is already very eye-catching, if you suddenly lead a contract Yuan Holy Spirit and don't know what kind of chaos will be caused by the Dao, for this reason, when he was in the academy, Xiaokong almost never came out, and now when he heard such news, he suddenly blossomed.
"When it's settled down and you're almost done, let's go home and have a look, maybe my mother and brother will go back." Zuo Congrong continued to plan his pace.
"You mean to go back to the forest?" asked Sora suspiciously.
"yes, maybe they can help me recover the magic circuit, it's better than I am. Zuo Congrong affirmed.
"Okay, yes, but isn't it very deep there, with our current strength, can we go back smoothly?" Xiaokong asked worriedly. The place where he used to live was already the hinterland of the forest, and in that uninhabited forest, all the high-level demonic beasts that lived in it had their own fixed territory were inhabited. If it was Zuo Congrong's ability, it would naturally not be a problem, but now the two people who are at most at the level of enhancers will not be enough for each other to plug their teeth at that time.
"Hehe, it's just a plan, you have to explore the way first, but you have to go there, it's better to go back than to look outside. I thought it would be good to be an ordinary person after losing my ability, but now it seems that it is better to recover, no matter what, it is most secure to hold my life in my own hands. Zuo Congrong said firmly.
"Hmm!" Sora nodded in agreement. (To be continued......)
