Chapter 110: Dinner is up to you
Leaving High Priest Goethe and Executive Priest Bach in the Mage Tower, Rogge and the others set off for the Academy of Magic on the Isle of Åland on board the griffins of Antonio's Knights of the Silver Dragon's Wings, where they met Kevin, the dean of the School of Magic, the proud protégé of the former Grand Master and the successor of the "Eye of the Sky" magic.
On the way to leave the City of Shining Light and fly to the southwest of the Ice Island on Aland Island, Rogge's heart has been shrouded in suspicion, although the report sent by Kevin has confirmed that the arrested person is the King of Dark Wizards "Bloody Hand" William, but Rogge still can't figure out why William was suddenly arrested on Isle Island.
At dusk the next day, the Knights reached the vicinity of the island of Ayland, and Rogge, who was sitting on a griffin, looked at the island from the air, and the twilight of the setting sun sprinkled on the island, dyeing the verdant trees a touch of gold.
Compared to the coldness and desolation of the ice island, the island is full of life, and the lush vegetation covers almost the entire island, bringing a kind of paradise-like tranquility.
Flocks of griffons skimmed over the Isle of Åland, leaping over forests and rivers, and in the distance they saw a castle surrounded by trees and surrounded by a large green meadow where a group of students were playing.
When the children spotted the flock of griffons flying through the sky, they stopped and looked up at the sky, watching the huge monsters that had landed from the sky, and saw a group of people in different clothes jumping from the griffins.
"Hey, gentlemen," said Rogge, smiling as he strode over to the magic apprentices gathered around, "does anyone know where the headmaster is, please tell him that two girls have been invited to the dinner!"
The students looked curiously at Rogge, who was dressed in black and in a black hat and green cloak, and the little black owl lying on his wide-brimmed hat, and one of the boys said, "Are you a wizard?"
"You're right, my child," Rog said loudly in a lecture-like tone, "and in some places witchers are called wizards, and in the eyes of many we are no different from wizards, and we all deal with demons. ”
"Wizards' owls are very powerful, and I have one here, do you dare to fight with me?" the boy proudly stretched out his arm, showing the tall white owl standing on his forearm, and glanced at Lilith on Rog's head and asked.
"Well, little villain, what do you say?" asked Rogge, looking up with a smile.
Lilith and the white owl looked at each other, flapping their wings and shouting, "I'm not going to fight with the big guys!"
"You don't usually fight with me!" Roger smiled, grabbed her from the head, glanced at the boy's surprised expression after hearing Lilith speak, and smiled, "Go ahead, you little thing with a different heart!"
He threw Lilith into the air, and the boy gave the owl a command, and the white owl soared into the air, glanced at the small furball no bigger than its own wings, and swooped down on Lilith with its claws.
The little furball saw the big owl pounce violently, and hurriedly flapped its wings to raise the height, and the white owl whistled under her talons, turned around and screamed and pounced again, opening its sharp eagle beak and biting the little one's buttocks.
"Don't come here, nasty big man!" The little black furball turned its head, and its eyes stared at two invisible lights, and the white owl suddenly stiffened and stopped in mid-air, Lilith slowly approached it, scratched its face with her little red paws, and then flew away with a puff of smoke.
The white owl, who had come back to his senses, suddenly found that his face was burning with pain, and couldn't help but look at Lilith angrily, and flapped his wings to catch up.
Lilith lowered her altitude as she looked back at it getting closer and closer, and when the two owls swept over the lawn, Lilith suddenly turned into a little loli in black in the red light, and turned around and grabbed the white owl in her hand.
"I'm going to eat you for dinner today!" Little Lori grabbed the white owl's wings with her right hand, and a flame ignited from the tips of her left fingers, bringing it towards the frightened white owl, and the boy who challenged was shocked and couldn't help screaming.
When it was too late, a burst of invisible energy extinguished the flame in Lilith's hand, and the energy wave hit her wrist, the little hand instantly let go, and the white owl flapped its wings and fled back to its master's arms.
"Who brought this dark woman to the White Wizard's Temple?" a dignified male voice asked coldly.
Rogge looked back and saw a man in a white robe walking with a solemn step, his eyes exuding majesty, arrogance, and caution, which made those who were watching him feel that their hearts were exposed.
Rogge waved to Lilith unhurriedly, turned around and smiled, "It's me, Dean Kevin, it's nice to meet you!"
The white-robed man's eagle-like gaze shot straight at Rogge from under the bangs of his short light yellow hair, and a trace of distrust flashed in his eyes, and he said coldly, "Not everyone is as happy to see each other as you are, Mr. Witcher." ”
He turned to Antonio, and without waiting for the Knight Commander to speak, he took the lead and said, "Master Antonio, I have received news from the Mage Tower, and I know everything about you, so we don't need to waste time on greetings and introductions. ”
"Alright, let's get straight to the point. Antonio looked at the dignified Dean in amazement, and was deeply surprised by his straightforwardness and informality, and said to Kevin, "I heard that you captured William, the King of Dark Wizards, the Bloody Hand?"
"Yes, he's in the academy's confinement cell right now, but he didn't explain anything, he said he was waiting for someone. Kevin said, glancing back at Rogge, who was surrounded by the students and asked about Lilith.
"William knew we were coming?" asked Tali, who was beside Antonio, in surprise.
"That's right," Kevin paused and frowned slightly, "I think he's looking forward to your arrival." ”
"Dean Kevin is right," Rogge suddenly turned around and strode over to Antonio, "Don't forget what happened to the Priests in the Titan Tomb, William, the old fox, may have set his sights on your Knights, Mr. Captain." ”
"But now it's different," Antonio said, raising a fist at Rog, with a hint of arrogance in his eyes, "now that he's in our hands, I'd like to see what tricks he can play." ”
"That's exactly what I'm worried about. Rogge stopped in front of Antonio, glanced at Kevin, who was looking at him coldly, and said, "Why was he suddenly arrested, Dean Kevin, how did you catch him?"
"We didn't fight him, he fell from the sky on his own. Kevin's words made those present stunned.
Kevin told them that the magicians who had been patrolling the night before suddenly noticed a black shadow falling from the sky and falling on the grass of the academy, he was covered in scars, his body was depleted of magic, and his body was very weak, and the magicians found a magic book with red letters and black skin on him, which was full of spell writing.
"This guy looks like a panicked outlaw. Murphy said with a mocking smile.
Rogge sneered softly, and said to Kevin in a slightly provocative tone: "Let's meet Mr. William first, can Your Excellency the Dean lead the way?"
Kevin didn't look at Rogge, his inquiring gaze fell on Antonio's face, the knight leader bowed slightly, and Kevin turned around and said, "Please come with me." With that, he turned and left.
"This guy is like a block of ice, and his students are cuter than him!" Rogge smiled at Murphy as he looked at the dean's back, "But those kids are still like goose-headed geese, and Lilith is more lovable - though a little greedy!"
"There's a price to pay for speaking ill of me, just like the big stupid bird just now!" said the little furball who was squinting on Rog's hat with a proud face, Rogge smiled and grimaced at everyone, and Murphy and the two girls couldn't help but smile at each other.
Leaving the Knights on the grass outside the Academy, Rogge and Antonio followed Dean Kevin into the Academy Castle, descending a dark staircase at the end of the side corridor to the confinement room under the Academy Castle.
Passing through the gate guarded by five solemn-looking guard magicians, Kevin led everyone into the confinement room, stopped in front of an iron door, the captain of the guard opened the iron door with a key, and everyone looked inside, only to see a man in a black robe sitting with his back to the door.
"You're finally here, and I thought you'd forgotten about me. The man's hoarse voice reached everyone's ears, and Rogge and Antonio vaguely recognized William's voice.
They stepped into the room, and went round to him from both sides, and saw a young man with a fair face sitting on a chair in the middle of the room, with a shabby black cloak draped over his body, and his fingers crossed on his lap, looking up at them.
"Isn't it surprised?" William smiled calmly and looked at the two of them, then turned his gaze on Rogge's face and said, "Lone wolf, you really surprised me, although I guessed that you might escape from my trap, but I still felt incredulous when I learned from the dark wizards what happened to the royal tomb. ”
"You can't die if you don't die, do you?" Rogge leaned down and stared into his eyes, sneering and asking, "And now? What are you going to do?"
William smiled silently and shook his head, turned his gaze to Antonio and smiled: "Mr. Commander, it's a pleasure to meet you, remember to say hello to High Priest Goethe on my behalf." ”
"We're not here to listen to you," Antonio asked in a deep voice, looking down at William, "where is the Hallow, and who instructed you to steal it?"
"I can tell you both, but you must agree to my terms. William stared calmly into Antonio's eyes, and the Knight Commander glared at him coldly and asked, "Do you think you are still qualified to negotiate terms with me now?"
"Of course, if you want to know the answer, of course you will be willing to listen to my conditions," William replied with a confident smile.
Antonio stared at the smile on his face that the dead pig was not afraid of boiling water, and said in a gloomy tone: "Okay, tell the conditions." ”
William's eyes rolled around, glanced at Antonio and Rogge's scrutinizing gazes, and said something that surprised them: "I want you to send me back to Condor Prison!"
(The king of the dark wizards, whom Rogge and others have been hunting, actually took the initiative to ask to be sent back to prison!What does William want to do, and what will Lao Luo and the others do?Anyway, Lilith, the same owl, let your kind go~~~~)
