Chapter 22: Scavenging

Klee's question silenced Dozer again.

After a while, the other party replied in a low voice: "Lord Keli, go to sea...... It's too dangerous for me. ”

Seeing Kree and talking, he plucked up the courage to defend himself.

"Actually, it's not just me, almost all of the third-level apprentices who came with Mentor Kaz at that time chose to stay. When Mentor Kaz finally left, there was only one Level 3 apprentice and a few Level 2 apprentices by his side. ”

Klee sighed, this was everyone's own choice, and it was impossible for her to interfere.

At this time, perhaps the carriage had been parked for a long time, and the curtain of the carriage had been lifted a small slit, and several pairs of eyes were hiding behind to peek.

When Klee saw this, she changed the subject, "What are you doing now?" Doing things for Baidong College? Or which wizarding organization did you join? ”

"I'm a human being now. Don't join the organization here, and work directly for the archaeological city. The latter were refugees I brought back from the border between Kema and Knas. ”

Kerry raised her eyebrows, "Abducting people from the Principality of Kema?" ”

Population is a big deal for every country, and a second-level apprentice in Doze shouldn't dare to secretly abduct the population in private.

"No, Lady Klee." Of course, Doze knew that Klee came from a noble family in the Principality of Kema, and quickly explained, "There have been small wars between Kema and Knas over the years, and the number of refugees and slaves has been growing. This is the population I bought back from over there, with the permission of the local lord. ”

Tozawa also showed the permission certificate he had hidden on his body to Klee.

Klee knew that Grand Duke Kira did not want the population of Kema to continue to decline, but she was powerless to stop the border lords from buying and selling people.

It's just that Klee doesn't understand, "What does Archaeological City want so many refugees for?" ”

Obviously, the nearby towns have been emptied by the Archaeological Ster. How can they still buy people?

"I don't know about that. I'm just in charge of sending people out of town. Dozer continued to say with his head down.

"Forget it, I don't want to do this, anyway, the position of the marquis is given to my brother." Klee pursed her lips, not wanting to ask any more.

"Then I won't delay your time, go and get busy."

Klee finished and flew back to the big rock she was meditating on, sitting upright and closing her eyes.

Taze hurriedly bent down and bowed again.

Then he returned to the carriage and continued on his way.

Klee's location was not far from the outer city of Archaeological Ste, and after Dorze continued on his way, it didn't take long for him to pass through the outer gate and enter the outer city.

After entering the outer city, he followed the route he had taken to an office, found a third-level apprentice, handed him the carriage, and obtained a small bag of magic mirrors.

It's just that before leaving, Dorze suddenly remembered the Klee he met today.

The red-haired freckled girl was already slim, and if it weren't for the familiar fluctuations in mental power, Duo Ze wouldn't have dared to recognize the other party at all.

Although the spiritual power on Klee's body was familiar, the intensity almost made him breathless.

Thinking that the other party had at least advanced to a full-fledged wizard, and that he was still a second-level apprentice, Tazawa's heart, which had been cowering for many years, was suddenly awakened.

He gritted his teeth and stopped the third-level apprentice who was about to leave.

"Senior, we have brought in so many people, why don't we see them appear in the outer city?"

Unexpectedly, the face of the third-level apprentice on the opposite side immediately sank, and the originally kind smile disappeared.

"What, you're curious? If you're really curious, I can ask you to send them over. ”

Duoze's heart jumped, and he suddenly knew that the place where these refugees were going must not be simple, so he hurriedly smiled and said: "No, I just asked casually, you are busy, I won't bother you." ”

Frightened, Dorze walked away.

The third-level apprentice who remained in the office snorted coldly and watched him leave.

After leaving, Tasawa thought about it, ran to the trading center again, and used the magic crystals he had saved these days to buy a magic book.

Holding the expensive books that he didn't know how many hands he had passed, he thought silently: "It should be okay not to seek to be promoted to a full-fledged wizard or a third-level apprentice, right?" ”

……

Thor picked up a torn book from the dust and carefully shook the dust off it.

This is a book of witchcraft notes.

It looks like it's been weathered too.

Even though Thor had shaken carefully, several pages were shaken to the ground along with the dust.

After leaving the small building where Wizard Jonah was located, Thor did not immediately head towards Baidong Academy, but wandered around the academy as if he was not doing his business.

Sometimes he would pick up some books left by wizards, as he did now, and sometimes he would stay in a room for a while.

The book he picked up this time was a book of official wizards' witchcraft notes. Bound by hand, it's very heavy, but the magic mark on it has disappeared.

"Some experimental ideas can be taken back to the newcomers of the wizard tower for research." Thor picks up the pages that have fallen on the floor, shoves them back, and puts them in his own storage.

"It seems that the disaster that broke out in the inner city was quite large, and these simple witchcraft books and witchcraft circles have been scrapped." Penny also flies around the room, helping Thor find useful materials.

On the other side, Herman put down a few glass bottles in his hand, turned around and said to Thor helplessly: "Master, the materials here are all polluted and spoiled, and there is no way to use them." ”

"This is also normal, the protective measures of the materials that are placed outside are generally not very good. You see if there is a secret room or something, and it is difficult to find clues in physical secret rooms through mental power scanning. ”

Herman nodded, then found a wall and crashed into it.

His spirit identity was very useful at this time, and the physical facilities without magic could not stop him.

Thor continued to rummage through the notes and books of the original owner, only to find that these things seemed to have been moved.

The thickness of the dust on the bookshelves is not the same.

"Brother Thor, Brother Thor!" Penny flew into a corner and suddenly flew back again.

Saul thought Penny had made a new discovery, but he heard her excitedly say, "I've found another living person!" ”

"Oh?" Thor came interested, "Where is it?" ”

"There were two people, and they were consciously hiding their presence, so I found out about their dreams," Penny said. ”

"Wizards who can consciously hide their existence are either wizards like Jonah who are in better shape than him, or other intruders."

The protection of the archaeological city of Sterne is said to be very strict, but it is also loose.

Relying entirely on the protection of the witchcraft circle, without human intervention, once a wizard like Thor finds a way, he can take advantage of the loopholes to enter.

"We're definitely not the only ones who are interested in archaeology. Maybe these people will know what's going on in the inner city. ”

Thor raised his hand to pull Herman, who was rampaging through the house, back, then put away the Nightmare Butterfly and flew straight out of the room, towards the place where Penny found the living.

Along the way, Thor deliberately restrained his mana fluctuations and maintained them at around the second order.

And his proximity quickly aroused the alarm of the two targets.

But to Thor's surprise, the first one to sneak up on him was a ...... Cat?
