With Soth, he crossed the small lake and walked through the path of the forest for nearly two hours, until it was almost noon. Angelel could only faintly see the trees parting in front of him, revealing a tall, deserted manor.

A large lawn is enclosed by a white fence, and the grass above is neatly kept, and in the middle of the grass, a gray five-story ornate building emerges.

The building seems to be made up of many small buildings, with many angular and vertical lines on the surface. Occasionally, you can see some curved balconies that protrude outward.

However, the whole building seems very deserted.

Angree led Soth to the fence. The fence actually opened automatically.

Only then did he see that behind the white fence, there was actually a short creature, a thin humanoid with short gray-black hair.

"Welcome Master Grimm. "The little creature was a little shorter than the dwarf, and looked like a child of three or four years old, and his face was very old, wrinkled, and seemed to be a little hunchbacked. He wore a short gray robe.

"I am the servant of Lord Siva, the fire elf Niko. The gray-and-black figure gave way and bowed respectfully to Angle.

He's as tall as Angle's knees at most.

"Fire Elf?" It was the first time Anglie had seen the so-called fire elf in the legend, but he was really disappointed by the honor of the villain in front of him. It's too far from the fire elves depicted in the legendary ancient wizard texts.

Striding into the manor, a white path leads straight to the building's gate.

Soth, who was behind Angliel, also looked at the fire elf with some curiosity.

The two, accompanied by Niko, walked to the gate.

The door opened automatically, revealing two female fire elves inside, who also looked very ugly little old men. He has short gray and black hair, and although he is wearing the clothes of a human child, he still looks a little weird.

In the golden hall behind the gate, a small old man in a pale green robe greeted the two of them. The robes are inlaid with dense green jade and precious stones. This is a pure human being.

"Hello, Lord Green, I'm Siva. "The little old man was bald, and his head was like the skin of an old toad, full of folds of flesh. The two upside-down eyebrows made him look a little pitiful.

"Hello. Siva-sama. Angre smiled, "I'm sorry to bother." ”

"You're putting it mildly. Siva also laughed, "I visited you not long ago, but I didn't expect you to come back first at a critical moment in the experiment." ”

"It's really unfortunate. ”

The two walked over to a circle of couches on the side of the hall and sat down, with Soth standing guard outside the door. Two fire elves took the initiative to bring black tea and fruit pastries.

"Siva-sama, you live here alone?" Anglie surveyed the hall.

The white walls are carved with many reliefs of crow motifs, and the ceiling is inlaid with illuminated crystals that emit a golden halo.

Couch. A table, a large decorative vase, and a black instrument resembling a piano were placed by the fireplace in one corner.

A thick blanket with white red threads on the floor.

"It is indeed a single person. I also have a daughter and a son, both of whom live elsewhere, and I am the only one who lives here to retire, after all, the environment here is very good. Siva sighed. "As a wizard, I've lived for more than two hundred years. Now I am a professor emeritus and associate dean in the public area, and I occasionally take students out to gather resources. Life is pretty good. How the hell did you, Wizard Grimm, come to the Sixth Ring?"

"I—I was just a wandering wizard, but I chose to come to Nora in search of knowledge in order to go further. The same experience as other wandering wizards, I later met a friend who invited me into the Six Rings, and he served as my guarantor. Otherwise, I might not have been able to get in. Speaking of which, Anglie couldn't help but feel a little grateful to Lisper. Without her guarantee, it would be a long, long time before he wanted to settle in the three major organization areas to collect resources. It may be many years before it becomes possible. However, this favor can only be compensated for later.

Although he was confident that even if he didn't have to enter the three major organizational areas, he could become stronger quickly, but it definitely wouldn't be so fast.

"Wandering wizard, that's good. I was also going to be a wandering wizard and be able to walk around. Take a look around. It's a pity that my daughter and son are not allowed to do so. They treated me like a child, afraid that something would happen if I went away."

Siva was a very easy-going old man, and he talked to Angliel. Both are very knowledgeable types. Siva originally regarded Anglie as an ordinary white wizard, but he didn't expect to find that the other party was very knowledgeable and could tell his own opinions in almost anything. Some places are slightly the same as what I see. It's even more joyful. It's been a long, long time since he's been able to talk to him so comprehensively.

Anglie was also quite surprised, all along, because of the existence of biochips, he absorbed knowledge very quickly, and basically no one could keep up with his knowledge accumulation. Unexpectedly, the old man in front of him was faintly stronger than himself in terms of knowledge. From the old man's mouth, he also learned a lot about things that he hadn't consulted before. It was very rewarding for him.

The two of them felt very right to each other, sitting on the sofa and chatting, and actually chatted until the sun was about to set.

"I accidentally talked so late. What a disturbing day. Angre looked at the bright red sunset outside, and said apologetically.

"It's rare that we have a good conversation, for those of us, what more time can be had?" said the old man with a smile, "Green, you don't have any position yet, do you? Why don't you come to my academy? Didn't you just say that you were interested in the Ancient Bloodline and the Ancient World?"

Siva paused, deliberately looking left and right, making a mysterious look. He whispered, "I'm telling you, our academy has a legendary World Stone. If you come, I, as Vice Dean, can let you join the ranks of studying the World Stone. ”

"World Stone?" Anglie was stunned, "Is it a World Stone that can connect other worlds?"

"I don't know. Old man Siwa spread his hands. "It's been decades, and we don't have a clue. ”

Anglie groaned slightly.

"Let me tell you, there are not many such opportunities, and it is very difficult for the World Stone to have access to even the wizards of the three major organizations. Only those core wizards who have gone through layers of vetting are eligible for research. Siwa looked like you would definitely regret it if you didn't agree, and persuaded in a low voice. "I also saw that you are very knowledgeable, and you are actually comparable to an old man like me, so I took the initiative to mention this matter to you. If it were someone else, hehe," he said, with a look on his face, you know.

Angre looked at the old man's smiling face, how to look at it and feel a little obscene.

"If it's really the World Stone. That's fine. However, I was going to join the Six Rings, you know, I came to Nora in search of more knowledge. ”

Siwa straightened up: "This is no problem, there are many wizards in our academy who have many titles, and it doesn't matter." As for knowledge, although the academy is not as old as the three major organizations, it has also been brilliant before. The knowledge that has been passed down is abundant. I'll take you to see it when the time comes. ”

"That's good. Angree nodded, and he stood up, "It's getting late, and I've delayed you for most of the day, so I'll take my leave first." ”

"Don't delay, don't delay, it's rare to meet someone who can talk, and come over to talk more when you have time. Siwa also stood up and said with a smile. "By the way, on the 11th of next month, my little grandson and little granddaughter will come to see me. Come over for a moment, too. I'll introduce you to it when the time comes. ”

"So I can be considered an elder?" Angliel smiled with a rare lightheartedness.

"Haven't you done it?" Siva was stunned.

"It's been a long time since I've been in touch with my family. Anglie said lightly. Recalling that when he went back, his father's slightly alienated feeling, his mood suddenly sank slightly.

"Really?" said Siva's eyes with a hint of understanding. "Then the next time you come, I'll let the two little ones recognize you as grandpa. ”

"Huh?" Anglie almost didn't choke. This old man is also considered to be the best, and he didn't even figure out his details, so he just felt good and chatted happily, so he simply prepared to let the younger generations recognize him as a godfather.

If he knew that he was a dark wizard, or the most evil and cruel dark wizard who came out of the dark witchland, I don't know if he would approve of it like this.

Angle's mind was spinning. His face twitched a few times, and he hurriedly said goodbye to the old man Xiwa. He was afraid that the old man would accidentally say something shocking and good.

Imagining the scene of two middle-aged men and women calling their grandfather with bitter faces, Angel felt an indescribable weirdness in his heart.

When he reached the door, Siva suddenly stopped him from behind.

"That's right, Green. The salutation had been omitted by the old man. "Catch this. ”

He threw over a black thing.

Syllable!

Angre caught it and looked at it. "What is this?"

"Just open it and see. Siwa smiled mysteriously.

Angre opened the cloth wrapped in black things in his hands. Inside is a black leather scroll. Very short. Only the length of the palm.

Unfolded it slightly, only to see that it was written: Rare Race Slave Fair.

"Maybe you can pick some fire elves like me. You're not still relying on the Benneth family for food and supplies, are you?" said Siva with a wave of his hand. "Pick some prisoner of war slaves from the wizarding wars, and some slaves of the lower races, among which there are artisans. Tailors, cooks and the like, you'll definitely need it. It can also be regarded as the rescue of some slaves. In addition, it is recommended that you build a botanical garden by yourself, as a source of food for your own people, and it can also be used as an advance practice and exercise for cultivating resource points in the future. ”

Anglie groaned and nodded earnestly. "Thanks for the reminder, I will. ”

As he left the manor, Anglie took one last look back at the gray building behind him.

Bell ウウ!

Three heavy bells in a row slowly came from the building.

"According to what Siwa said just now, the next bell represents two o'clock, which means that it is already six o'clock. Angle's face was calm, "Let's go, Soth." He turned and strode toward the forest.

"Oh. Soth yawned and walked away briskly with Anglie. The figures of the two soon disappeared into the woods.

I didn't expect to accidentally get the information of the World Stone here. Looking at the old man's leaky mouth, it is estimated that this so-called secret should be an open secret. As everyone knows, it's just because it's too time-consuming to study the World Stone, and there should be a certain background behind its academy, so there is no movement.

Anglie really needs to think about joining the organization now.
