"They're gone. ”

The owner of the Gini hut turned the wine glass in his hand and said to the empty wine house. The turquoise liquor swirls and falls on the walls of the glass, and the spherical ice cubes hit the walls of the glass with a slight tinkling sound.

There wasn't a single figure in the Sakura Tavern.

The wooden door upstairs was closed, and after seeing off the two First University students, Colmar told the assistants that they needed to rest for a while, so everyone consciously lowered their voices. Through the thick doors and blurred glass windows, you can see several gray robes walking on tiptoe, like weasels stealing chickens.

"Are you going to hide in the mirror for the rest of your life?"

Colmar knocked on a mirror on the bar and urged, "I only have half an hour to rest......"

"It's coming, it's coming. A hoarse voice came out of the mirror with a bit of reluctance: "Do you know what I saw? Two streets away, a young man who had just received the 'Spell Seal' from you, out of show-off, showed his friends the 'Bear Summoning Technique', and then summoned a large bear that was three meters tall...... Hey, that's a lot of fun!"

The witch's fingers clenched at the glass.

"Is anyone hurt?" she raised her voice slightly.

"Peace of mind, peace of mind. An almost transparent mouse slowly emerged from the mirror and reassured, "It's just very lively, no one is hurt...... Although these tricksters in the North District are not of high level, they often go to the Silent Forest and are very experienced in dealing with this kind of beast...... And you gave them the spell seal. ”

As he spoke, the color of the rat's body slipped off like mercury, and his old, wrinkled fur was revealed in the reverberated mirror.

It's a rat fairy.

It's just that unlike in the past, today the big mouse did not sit on the chariot, and there was no mouse wearing a red vest next to him to give him a big umbrella, raise a flag, or act as a guard.

Hearing that no one was hurt, Colmar's nervousness eased a lot.

She squinted at the fat mouse that had just crawled out of the mirror—perhaps because he hadn't used his paws to walk on his own for a long time, and the rat fairy looked a little jerky when he crawled away—and suddenly laughed:

"I heard that a yellow civet has been looking for you, are you sure it's the right thing to do to see me now?"

"Indeed, indeed. ”

After hearing the words 'yellow civet', the rat immortal's face obviously showed a little uneasiness, raised his head, and looked left and right a few times: "I can choose not to come, but I think it's better to come......

As he spoke, it glanced down at the cup of tea that the witch had pushed in front of it, and carefully examined the shape of the tea leaves at the bottom of the cup, as if there was also a yellow civet buried in the small cluster of tea leaves: "...... After all, it is a very, very honorable thing to become a great wizard. Although the process is not so glorious. But overall, it's something to celebrate. ”

"When I first became a great wizard, my family set up a ten-day flowing water mat, and the headmaster gave me a rune book drawn by himself. A full set of runes. You can't see it on the market!"

Colmar listened to the old mouse in front of him chattering about the old things, the smile on his face quietly retracted, and there was a trace of pity in his eyes. This is about the mercy of a lucky man for the unfortunate.

“...... This is my congratulatory gift. The rat fairy dug around his waist for a long time, and finally found a simple silver ring with a translucent amber embedded in it.

Through that layer of brown, you can faintly see the shadow of the rolling hills.

"Every great wizard needs a place to house his 'existence'. The Rat Fairy placed the ring on the witch's finger and explained, "If you don't want to be forced out of this world like the outer gods, then you'll need it...... This kind of thing, you will gradually understand...... This is the 'world' that an old friend of mine gave me before it fell, and I thought it would be a perfect gift. ”

"How long have you been hiding in the mirror?" the witch rubbed the amber from the ring, not asking more about the archwizard. Knowledge involving high-level wizards is not so easy to obtain.

"Front and back feet," the rat immortal nodded his chin at Zheng Qing and Jiang Yu's departure, and the beard at the corner of his mouth curled up, looking extremely proud:

"I'm here when that kid just came...... I know what you're trying to say, but you know there's a word called 'dark under the lights', and the more dangerous the place, the safer it is. ”

That's a good word, but it's a tightrope that only the daring guy of the artist would walk.

"You're not here today just to give me a gift. The witch finally made up her mind and asked the question. At the same time, she was also prepared to refuse in her heart—if the Rat Immortal wanted her Northern Wizards to risk their lives for some impossible goal, she would definitely refuse on the spot.

"You know Dr. Terry Duzem. The Rat Immortal asked in a declarative tone.

"You told me the name. The witch replied cautiously.

A few weeks ago, Colmar turned to the Rat Immortal for help in search of a secret and suitable place to 'place' the Summoning Circle, and the condition was that the witch should find the Dr. Douzem.

It's just that later, for some reason, before the witches could fully figure out the identity of Dr. Duzem, the two rats actually said that they had completed the task - now that I think about it, it was probably only Zheng Qing who completed the task at that time.

This also made Colmar more and more vigilant.

She knew very well how much trouble Zheng Qing's guy had. Just like the relationship between power and responsibility, for most wizards, the stronger the background, the greater the trouble.

The Rat Immortal smiled and revealed a few secrets on the island to the new Grand Wizard: "Dr. Duzem is a genius alchemist who once led the First University's 'Artificial God' project, and has made great achievements...... If that plan is successful, First University will be able to mass-produce 'Great Wizards'. ”

"It's just that Dr. Duzem is still too young and a bit risky. There was an accident. While investigating the accident, the school accidentally discovered that several of his experiments had seriously violated the accepted ethical boundaries of the Alliance...... For example, he used living beings to refine the Philosopher's Stone, and for example, he used the remains of a deceased archwizard for experiments. ”

The rat fairy was still a little vague in his words, and he didn't name what happened to the plan, but just a little bit of information revealed made the witch feel the urge to cover her ears.

Admittedly, she was now qualified to access the secrets, and she was interested in how things would follow. But there are many things that you are not interested in and qualified to understand.

It's like the saying in the wizarding world, 'When a wizard gazes into the abyss, it is the beginning of the fall, because the abyss will begin to look at you at that moment'.

It's a pity that there are some things that you can't hear without covering your ears.
