Chapter 51: The Eve

The effects of Poseidon Wailing have begun to fade, and the temperature in the city of Salem has begun to drop again, and it won't be long before everyone who travels at night will have to wear heavy trench coats.

Old Schubert was like a bamboo pole shivering in the cold wind, and the bag he carried with him looked like a rag bag hanging in the cold wind.

"Sally......"

"Don't say Uncle Schubert, you've repeated it many times along the way!"

Young Sally was also in a state of high tension, and she felt like she was trembling even with her exhaled breath now.

It's not easy to make such a choice, the elder Schubert has everything in this city of Selen, and once he makes this choice, it means that he will most likely have to wave goodbye to everything he has worked hard for most of his life...... Not everyone can make such a decision.

Fortunately, old Schubert was timid enough, and although he was greedy for money, he was more afraid of death, and he had a certain common language with the Big-Eared Goblins on this point.

"But we're here, and there's no one at all."

Old Schubert paused vigorously, this "earring trail" was already very inconspicuous, and it was even more frightening at this time, coupled with the psychological shadow caused by the night turmoil in the past two days, he almost felt that the robbers would jump out of the darkness around him anytime and anywhere.

Sally was also uneasy, her courage and courage were limited, and she was only able to convince her uncle that the events of the past two days had shaken his idea of guarding the beer hall, and as for the letter she had received, and the familiar handwriting in the letter, she did not dare to reveal it to Schubert, although the girl was young, she had also read many stories related to adventures and secret agents, in which the characters' whereabouts were often led to death.

The affairs of the old Ernst mansion were already full of strange things, and the appearance of the letter ignited a fire of hope in Sally's heart, she did not want to cause new problems for her friend because of her omission.

"Maybe we should wait a little longer......

Sally looked at the empty path with some hesitation, but at that moment, a small sound came from the side, and she turned her head, only to see green eyes shining in the darkness not far away—it was a mouse, a mouse, a mouse, which was noticeably different.

"The gods are above, how can it have three tails!"

Old Schubert swallowed, he reached out and grabbed his niece, trying to get her to hide behind him, any magical creatures are dangerous, and it is absolutely right to stay away from them.

However, what the two didn't expect was that this strange big mouse did not attack them, but strangely raised its three long tails and swung them in the air twice in a row, looking like it was "beckoning".

After that, it ran some distance and stopped to wait quietly for the two of them.

"It's calling us over!"

Sally's eyes lit up, and old Schubert cowered, and there was something wrong with being carried away by such a strange creature. ….

However, at such a moment, there were not many options left for them, and the two of them finally followed from a distance, so that under the guidance of this strange mouse, they managed to walk out of the other side of the trail and return to the relatively spacious road.

Sally and Schubert breathed a sigh of relief, then courageously followed the rat on their way, and at last they came to a huge mansion.

The door was open, and a somewhat familiar figure of the two was waiting quietly in the courtyard behind the door.

Sally stood outside the gate, a little stunned, and a little unable to believe her eyes.

And the three-tailed rat who was in charge of leading the way was now pulling at the young man's trouser leg with his paws, as if he was asking for credit.

Shug raised the magic lantern in his hand slightly, and at the same time showed a smile: "Miss Sally, Mr. Schubert, please don't stand outside anymore...... It's not safe yet."

Wait for these two still

The old dazed person walked into the courtyard, and Xiuge closed the door, and the protective ritual came into effect again, isolating the inner and outer worlds.

"You...... Mr. Shug, you're really not dead?"

Schubert unconsciously changed his title and attitude towards Xiuge, and the temperament of the other party at this time made Schubert dare not call and treat him like in the past.

Shugg smiled and nodded to Schubert, he turned around, only to see that Sally was still in a state of stupor, which was between excitement and confusion, so he sighed and reached out to take Sally's bag: "It's a long story, I'll explain slowly when I enter the house."

Perhaps it was the impact of "Resurrection from the Dead", or perhaps the natural deterrent power of the magical power and the identity of the caster, Xiuge didn't spend much words and energy to convince the two new visitors to Mansion 37 of the danger that the city was currently facing, and the changeling insects operating in the mansion added more credibility to Xiuge's words.

After listening to Shuge's narration, Sally whispered, "So there's another mage here?" Or a lake-level magic advisor?"

"Yes, a true magician...... She's trying to find a way to get us through the gates, and according to her calculations, it will be done by tomorrow morning at the latest."

Schubert looked a little worried, but the effects of the mages' supernatural status and power were deep-rooted, and since a magical advisor had already said such a thing, he could no longer question it.

After the initial panic and nervousness, Sally has regained her vitality, this lively, simple girl does not have too complicated thoughts and ideas, she follows her instincts and instincts, and gives her trust to the young man in front of her, who already carries her favor and love, she does not ask about what has happened these days, nor does she ask why Xiuge has magic powers and becomes a spellcaster, but talks about the current changes and conditions in the city of Selen.

Before they knew it, the two chatted about Putrin.

The absence of Putling here says a lot about it. ….

"You...... Will you blame him?"

"What's there to blame him?"

Shug shook his head, "It's just that he made his own choice, and he's complained to us about it more than once in the past...... What's more, many of these situations exist objectively, and you must have seen them all in the past few days? There are many, many people in Salem who have similar ideas, and even if there is no Puttling, there must be someone to replace him."

Sally gave Sally a cautious look at Hugh, and then said, "Actually, on the day the old house caught fire, Putlin came to the beer hall, and he was very sad and thought it was ...... I think it's your status as a member of the Ernst family that caused all this."

Hearing this, Xiuge's expression stiffened slightly, he gently put down the water glass, and sighed in the almost dim living room: "This time, maybe he was right."

Schug doesn't have much affection for the Ernst family these days.

Like the vast majority of families that have been in the world for a long time, the Ernst family is a very pure self-seeker, they regard the development and survival of the family as everything, and all members of the family power should voluntarily become the firewood that continues the glorious flame of Ernst......

If anyone is unwilling, then naturally someone else will do it and stuff this indisputable firewood into the fire and furnace.

"Even if I do want to give something, it will not be for the Ernst family."

Xiuge said silently to himself in his heart.

In this way, time passed in anxious waiting, and in the whispered conversation between Shug and Sally.

Finally, when the light of day was already faint, Xiuge finally felt a sudden wave of magic power sweeping from the top of his head in his half-asleep stupor, followed by a crisp sound!

Shuge immediately came to his senses, he jumped up from the sofa in the living room, and ran quickly in the direction of the second floor.

The loud vibration sound continued to echo in the corridor on the second floor, and the sound seemed to have vitality

Every nook and cranny of the confined environment was constantly beating, and under his influence, Xiuge even felt that the magic in his body had become active.

"Bang!"

The door that had been closed opened open, and then the young female mage with a pale face, dark eyes, and messy hair stepped out of it, and in her fingers was holding a magic crystal, which was constantly emitting a bright light, and Shug saw that the insignia of the iris symbolizing the kingdom of Deran was imprinted on the surface of the crystal.

Verin was clearly in a state of extreme exhaustion, and after walking out of the room, she leaned against the wall and gasped heavily, but then a rather intriguing smile appeared on her face, and a deep sense of accomplishment and satisfaction came out of the corners of her upturned mouth.

Seeing her like this, Xiuge finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you, Miss Weilin...... I wonder how it turned out now?"

"Perfect."

She said in a very confident tone, "It took me a lot of time to transplant the emblem onto a complete magic crystal, and to be honest, it was a bit risky, but luckily it worked."

At this time, Xiuge noticed that the palm of Wei Lin's hand holding the magic crystal was covered with many wounds, some of which were still bleeding, and it was clear that the situation was not as easy as she appeared, at least it should definitely not be just "a little risky". ….

Seeing that Wei Lin looked like she might faint at any moment, he hurriedly brought a teacup and a teapot - which was brewed with flower tea from the Lowe Plateau, which was often accompanied by a lot of dried fruits, and even sugar cubes, although the taste was sweeter, it was very suitable for soothing the physical and mental state and replenishing physical strength.

Verin rightfully took the teacup from Shug's hand, and after taking a small sip, her eyebrows furrowed, and at that moment, footsteps came from the direction of the stairs, and the two turned their heads to look, only to see Sally cautiously poking her head out of the stairs.

Vicin smiled kindly at the girl she had met once, and then she asked, "Looks like we're all together?"

"Yes, the route has been chosen, and it is ready to go."

Wei Lin nodded, she picked up her teacup and took another sip, then looked at the magic clock hanging on the wall next to her, "It's already five?" All right...... Give me another three hours, no, two hours will be enough...... I need to get some mana and stats back quickly, otherwise it's easy to make mistakes when handling the magic emblem."

Xiug nodded, "I'll keep a close eye on the situation outside, and if there are no accidents, we'll leave before eight o'clock."

……

Early morning light filtered through the windows and onto the wooden floor.

Temperatures on the Lovi Plateau have begun to drop rapidly, and just this past night, the first snowfall of the year 2699 in the Kathel calendar was received in the royal city of Waterl, which was limited in size but also symbolized that the goddess of winter and the god of cold winds had once again embarked on a long journey together.

A wrinkled hand pushed open the glass door of the study's balcony, and the light in the room immediately became transparent, and in the cold and light wind, Zeke Ernst the "three-clawed falcon" came to the balcony.

A huge raven seemed to have been waiting for this moment for a long time, and it couldn't wait to flap its wings and land, standing firmly on the armrest of Old Zeke's wheelchair.

The old man chuckled twice, then stretched out his finger and slowly glided over the raven's head and back, its feathers so beautiful and neat that they were even faintly reflective.

However, just as the raven was busy enjoying the grooming services provided by humans, a magic hidden in its body suddenly came into play, and the raven's gray eyes immediately changed, and its pupils were filled with gold, revealing some emotions that are unique to humans.

The old man stopped, and he looked at the raven quietly, and after a few moments, the raven opened its mouth, and the voice of a human woman came out.

"Teacher, you woke up very early today."

"It's snowing, and I can't sleep well."

Zeke chuckled, he tugged at the blanket on his body, and his eyes were on it

A boundary of earth, mountains, and sky: "Today is an important day, and if I get up too late, I will be laughed at by you young people, right?"

The voice softly replied, "No one will laugh at you."

"Wrong...... Just because they don't dare doesn't mean they don't have that idea."

Zeke Ernst kept smiling, and he saw a majestic, great shadow passing across the distant sky, a highland eagle that the Wattles regarded as a totem.

It is rumored that when the world is about to usher in new changes and upheavals, this fearsome predator will also become excited......

"Kid, it's time for you to get excited."

He muttered.
