Chapter 16: Magicians Are Vulnerable

The green parrot in the house, at eight o'clock in the morning, immediately let out a high-pitched and piercing call, and the Fergus family has a very big rule that does not allow guests to sleep lazy. Brian sat up from the bed and rubbed his temples, he was disturbed by the "stairs" described by the old man Dunbar last night, and now he has a little headache, and I don't know what happened to Bourne, who came with him, after this thing was carried out of the "poisoned wine" nightclub, he still can't walk upright, Brian just put him over, wanting him to learn a few more tricks from the Magister Whit.

With a bang, an abstract oil painting on the wall fell, interrupting Brian's thoughts, what the hell was Bourne, who lived next door, doing to make such a big noise? Brian rushed out of the room in his pajamas, ran two steps and pushed open Bourne's door, and saw the green hair flying inside, and the parrot fell to the ground, wet, and still shouting at the top of his voice: "Lazy pig, lazy pig, degenerate lazy pig." ”

Bourne covered his ears with a pillow and yelled, "Enough, let me sleep again, or I will kill you with a wave bomb." ”

A big-headed dwarf pushed the dining cart and knocked at the door and said, "Sir, breakfast is here, what do you need?"

The dwarf opened the hood on the dining car, and Bourne glanced at it and said angrily, "I want to fry the parrot tongue." ”

"Your ideals are hard to achieve, valued guest. The big-headed gnome blinked, "Like you, I've wanted to kill these pesky guys for a long time, but salt-and-pepper parrot tongue is better." ”

Brian took bread, jam, omelette, ham and milk, put them on the small table, motioned for the dwarf to leave, walked over and patted Bourne on the shoulder and said, "Get up, there is no limit to life experience, and it will be in vain to come to this world." ”

After washing up and eating, Brian walked out of the room with a blue-faced Bourne, just in time to meet Helois in full costume coming down from the third floor. The all-over embroidered snow-white corset outlines the girl's mature and seductive figure, with a wide lace ruffle collar around her slender neck, which does not completely cover her slightly slender and rounded shoulders, and the lower body is a luxurious round skirt, the length is just enough to reach the ground, and there are no legs and shoes in sight.

"Hello, Lord Viscount, it is an honor to meet you. Hellois politely extended her hand to Brian, but there was a coldness on her face, as if they were meeting for the first time.

"You...... Hello, miss. Brian was a little stunned and kissed the back of the girl's hand in a panic, "You're so beautiful." ”

"This Mr. Byrne has a bad face, didn't you rest last night?" said Hylois politely.

"No, he's weak. Brian hastened to answer.

"Well, magicians are vulnerable. There was a hint of sympathy on Helois's face, "Lord Viscount, please come with me to the council chamber, where you will befriend many of the Empire's powerhouses, or wise men." It's a day off at the castle, so people can move around as they please, but most people like to exchange ideas here. ”

"There's no need to be so hypocritical, Helois. Brian shrugged his shoulders, "You're pretending to be reserved. ”

Helois looked at Brian fixedly and said, "This is how I should be, I won't be so fragile anymore, you took advantage of the weakness of people in the jungle, shook my hand, and said things that did not fit your identity." ”

"I'm taking advantage of people's misfortunes, and this is a strange injustice!" Bryan sighed.

"Yes, men should be responsible. Helois's eyes fluttered, "Grandpa just gave me a coming-of-age ceremony, and I'm an adult now." ”

"Adults are good, but a big dummy. ”

"Please, time is precious, Lord Viscount. Helois made an inviting gesture and led the way in front.

There were six long tables in the chamber, and there were people of different costumes and ages around the tables, some arguing loudly, some whispering, and after Helois's introduction, it turned out that these people were free to meet and have various academic discussions according to their professions or hobbies, namely magic talks, military talks, political talks, scientific talks, and business talks. Brian pointed to the only empty table and asked, "Why is there no one on this one?"

"People in the warrior profession don't need to discuss, they go straight to the training ground to compete. Helois replied.

"It's really out of style, and I blush for my profession. ”

"You can go to another table and participate in the discussion, and no one will turn you down. ”

"How about going to the magic talks first, Byrne?" asked Brian.

"As long as you don't go to a nightclub, you can do anything. Byrne nodded weakly.

"Exactly, we're walking together. Helois walked over to the Magicians' table, saluted each of the magicians, and introduced them to each of them. In addition to the original Magister Big Fat Whit, there are two more mages in the castle, a thin and short old woman, and an old man with a gloomy expression.

"Whitt, this boy, is that the one Dunbar is talking about?" the old woman in a broken blue hat had a voice worse than a crow's cry, and her laughter was even more terrible, but unfortunately her laughter was still very low. "Hahaha, my name is Barbara, and people call me Little Demon Fairy, it's nice to meet you, young man. ”

"I ...... I'm glad to meet you, too, Lapa Baba...... No, no, no, Ms. Barbara. ”

"Hahaha, kind of interesting. The old woman, like Dunbar, looked at Brian on the forehead when she first saw him, and she even stretched out her hand like a chicken paw to touch it twice. "Not bad, not bad, kind of interesting. ”

Brian couldn't figure out what it meant, he was attracted to the wand in Barbara's hand, it was a cane made of black rattan, the tip of the staff was inlaid with a huge gem, Brian had never seen such a dazzling stone, it was constantly changing colors, giving people a psychedelic feeling.

"Don't keep staring at the stone, your soul will be sucked into it, and when the time comes, I'll find it out, and it will take at least half a month, hahaha. Barbara warned with a smile.

"Soul stones, soul hearts?" Brian exclaimed, "You're not ...... then."

"Yes, I am a dark wizard, the devil in people's hearts, and this misunderstanding has been around for thousands of years. "But the truth is, without us, all souls who have lost their bodies would be homeless and slowly disintegrate, and they don't know how to get to the underworld." Do you want to be a witch, boy?"

"Not interested yet. "Brian's palms are sweating, and the Fergus family is full of monsters.

"Tell me when you're interested, the witch spirit is immortal, hahaha. ”

The old man with a gloomy face had a good impression of Bourne: "Young man, why is his face the same as mine, has he dealt too much with poisonous things?"

"You can say so. Byrne said with a bitter face, "Those things hurt the kidneys too much." ”

"Hurt kidneys?" the old man thought for a long time, "what kind of magic potion, why haven't I heard of it?"

"Let the obsession with something. "Bourne is not easy to explain.

"Whatever it is, don't be too obsessed, child, as intoxicating as alchemy is, you must always remember that the body of a magician is fragile. The old man admonished.
