Chapter XXVIII

At nine o'clock in the morning, Gondolin walked into the chofu restaurant on time and came to the innermost window seat. He didn't have to order, as usual, the waiter had already prepared hot coffee and cookies for him, and there was a copy of today's newspaper on the table. As a regular customer here, Gondolin has her own recipes. The recipes are divided into seven days a week, and the order is absolutely fixed. Vegetable salad on Monday, T-bone steak on Tuesday, caviar on Wednesday...... Seven days and one cycle, unchanged over the years.

Gondolin liked to be in order with everything, and he was almost paranoid about it. If, for some reason, the recipe lacks ingredients and cannot be completed, he would rather skip the meal. Even if other restaurants in Huadu City could make this dish, he wouldn't go there.

At ten o'clock in the morning, after breakfast, Gondolin walked leisurely back to her Stardust Enchantment Shop along the Silver Chain River, entered the laboratory, and the day's work officially began.

He looked at the clock on the wall, it was already ten o'clock, and Li Xiang had not yet come, which made Gondolin very dissatisfied. Despite the elves' long lives, Gondoline did not allow himself to enjoy a comfortable, comfortable, leisurely, slow-paced life like his kind. He is where he is today thanks to an almost harsh sense of time.

Without Li Xiang, the so-called academic exchange could not have been completed. If others can take advantage of this time to do other things, but Gondolin can't, and agree to have an academic exchange in the morning, then this time can only be used to do this thing.

Although Li Xiang's problems made Gondolin very unaccustomed, he also had to admit that Li Xiang's talent in enchantment was jealous. Although the two have been arguing for the past few days, it is not without gain. Li Xiang, who crossed the river by feeling the stones, benefited greatly from Gondolin's rigorous theory of enchantment, and Li Xiang's bold imagination opened a window into Gondolin's almost rigid mind.

Gondolin had suppressed Li Xiang before, but now Li Xiang has already become famous, not only as a world-famous dragon slayer, but also known for his magical enchantment through the turmoil of the two families. So even if Gondolin tried her best now, it would be useless. He's obsessed with his status, but he's not stupid. Moreover, Black Rose's attitude towards Li Xiang also made him have to make his own plans, in order to win over Li Xiang, Black Rose can ignore Gondolin's interests and feelings, which means that for the guild, Gondolin is an outcast who can be sacrificed at any time.

Now for Gondolin, cooperating with Li Xiang and enhancing his strength is the best choice.

"I'll be honest with that guy with donkey ears like Kyle, keep your mouth shut!" Li Xiang said in a low voice. Unfortunately, Gondolin's long ears are not only long, but also very sensitive, and Li Xiang's words are clearly heard by him.

"Is this the son of the Li family?" said Gondolin, who had been waiting there for a long time, when Li Xiang walked in with the little prince and Roqueta.

With Li Xiang's instructions in advance, the two bear children stared at Gondolin's long ears, their mouths closed tightly, and they didn't dare to say a word.

Gondolin glanced at Li Xiang and said, "No matter what Lord Li Xiang said, since you are here, you are my guests. ”

Li Xiang coughed dryly, understanding that his words were heard by the other party, and he was very embarrassed. The two are now a cooperative relationship, and it is not good for him to scold Gondolin in person. And even if Li Xiang was reluctant, Gondolin's profound knowledge benefited him a lot. The last person Li Xiang saw was Dante, which shows that Gondoline did not waste his long life.

Gondolin smiled at the two bear children and said, "If you find this place boring, I can ask the servant to take you to the tower, where the scenery is very good." "Gondolin's lab is full of enchanted props, or various weapons and armor waiting to be enchanted, which is really not attractive to two children who love to play.

"Tower?" the little prince forgot Li Xiang's words and couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Yes, the Tower, the one you saw on the way here. Gondolin pointed to it and said that the tower was his dwelling, and that outsiders were generally not allowed to enter. He didn't like noisy bear children very much, but in order to show favor to Li Xiang, he endured it.

"Great! I haven't fl......own for a long time," Li Xiang quietly put his hand on the little prince's shoulder and quietly pinched it, and Sasario quickly changed his words. "It's been a long time since I've been to that height. The little prince raised his head, full of anticipation, and looked at Li Xiang timidly. "Can we go up there and play?"

Li Xiang thought about it, these two bear children didn't go far, and nothing should happen, and said: "It's okay to play, but don't mess with other people's things, don't make trouble for Lord Gondolin." Gondolin was so polite that Li Xiang used honorifics to him for the first time.

"That's great, I still have some things to do with Master Li Xiang, why don't you go to the tower to visit." So saying, Gondolin sent a servant with two bear children to play in the tower.

Watching the two bears bounce out of the laboratory, Li Xiang said, "Anyway, I want to thank you." The child's nanny had recently gone on strike, and they hadn't seen a smile in days. ”

Gondolin smiled and said, "We're partners now, aren't we?"

A moment later, the lab shimmered with a variety of colors. Two of the most powerful enchanters in the world are trying to prove to each other that their enchantments are the strongest.

"I have to admit that your ability to manipulate the elements as easily as you breathe makes me jealous. Gondolin said, holding an enchanted Mithril shield. "However, you are so spontaneous that you waste your talents. So the only thing that makes something different from garbage is that it hasn't been thrown into the garbage heap. ”

Li Xiang held a Mithril hammer that had been enchanted by him, and replied disdainfully, "Do you know why you have been self-contained for so many years and have not made any progress?" Li Xiang said, pointing to his temple. "You've got granite here, and you won't turn at all. ”

"Someone!" said Gondolin.

Two Gothic Praetorian Guard soldiers walked in, they were the best Praetorian Guards in a hundred, and by the standards of the guild, they had already reached the fourth level, that is, the Bitao rank. This kind of strength is considered a master among the masters in the Qiyao Continent, but they are all honestly waiting outside Gondolin's laboratory now, ready to try out the latest works of the two high-level enchanters.

Li Xiang handed his enchanted Mithril hammer to one of the Praetorian Guards, pointed to the shield in Gondolin's hand and said, "Smash that thing!"
