In one corner of the study, there is a statue. The statue looks like a human. His translucent body and indistinct appearance, holding a short sword, looked down at the beings beneath his feet, and the background was a chaotic and distorted darkness.

This is the legendary Lich. Leon glanced at the statue, but focused on the base of the sculpture.

At the base of the statue, there is a groove.

As Leon looked closely, Arthur had already walked over to the groove, held down the bracket, and opened the dark grid in the groove. There is a key in the dark grid, as well as two crystal clear green gems that glow with a misty green glow.

Arthur handed the two gems to Leon and said in a solemn tone: "This is your reward in the academy, and you can dispose of them at your own disposal." ”

"Oh~" Li Ang took the gem, checked it, and said with satisfaction: "It is worthy of being an old man, and he is really generous." ”

"......," Arthur chuckled dryly.

Li Ang picked up the key, stuffed it into his coat pocket, and then asked, "You just said that the layout of this room is for you, what about me?" ”

"Of course you have your own room." "This room was originally intended for students, but I found it safe – not only with plenty of sunlight, but also with enough food and water," Arthur said. ”

Li Ang nodded: "So, where is my room?" ”

"Second floor, easternmost and northernmost edge." Arthur pointed to the stairs and continued, "The facilities in the room are similar to those in the student's dormitory, you can rest or practice in it, and we will definitely not disturb you. ”

"Thanks, Grandpa Arthur." Leon arched his hand at Arthur and strode towards the staircase.

Arthur looked at his back, was silent for a long time, and said abruptly: "What if...... I mean if. What will you do if I suddenly die one day? ”

"Huh?" Li Ang was stunned for a moment.

Arthur smiled bitterly and spread his hands, "Don't get me wrong, I didn't doubt your sincerity. I mean hypothetical questions, after all...... Wizards and knights generally have a long lifespan, reaching almost infinity. ”

Leon blinked, thinking about it seriously. After a while, he said, "I will bury you in the cemetery, build you a tomb, and help you erect a plaque." ”

Arthur was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing.

Leon shrugged his shoulders and strode upstairs.

No sooner had he stepped onto the steps than a rapid bell rang.

Jingle bell, ding bell.

A crisp bell rang out from outside the door, followed by a maid in a white robe, holding a tray with a hot breakfast in it. She saw that there were outsiders in the house, and hurriedly bowed down and greeted: "Hello, sir, welcome to the Sacred Mountain Wizards Association. ”

Li Ang bowed slightly, which was an answer.

The maid took her breakfast, bowed to Arthur, turned and walked out, closing the door by the way.

"What did she just say?" Li Ang asked in surprise.

"The Sacred Mountain Wizards Association." Arthur explained lightly.

"What's that?" Leon asked.

"The ruling organization of the Katari, managed by a coalition of wizards and knights, is a symbol of wizards and knights." Arthur explained: "The role of the Wizarding Society is to maintain the stability and prosperity of the Katari, and every year a great event is held to celebrate the birth of a newborn in the Katari. ”

"What about the event?"

"Unless it's a special time, wizards are basically involved." Arthur replied.

"Like now?"

Arthur pondered for a moment: "We have set up a sacrificial place near the Wizard's Castle, and we hold activities on the first and fifteenth days of the new year, praying, sacrificing, voting, and so on. This is the date of the prayer ceremony. ”

"Prayer ceremony?" Leon raised his eyebrows, "What kind of show is this?" ”

Arthur said, "There are a total of six hundred and forty-seven wizarding churches around the Wizard's Castle. Every year on the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, these 647 wizards' churches hold prayer ceremonies. After the prayer ceremony, each wizard's church sends wizards into the Katari region to hunt monsters and beasts, obtain blood and scales, make materials and send them to the town. ”

Li Ang said thoughtfully: "In other words, this kind of prayer activity is free, and you only need to donate some blood?" ”

Arthur nodded slightly, "Well, to be exact, it should be called 'Hunting Game'." Wizards used this method to earn wealth and fame. Of course, in order to avoid casualties, each wizard will carry a portion of potions and spell potions as compensation. ”

Leon nodded in understanding, and asked, "So, do you know where these wizards usually stay?" ”

Arthur thought for a moment and said, "Most likely, they will stay in their respective yards, or they may patrol near the school park to look for traces of monsters or monsters." Of course, you can't trespass on a wizard's dwelling, especially not steal a wizard's secret information. ”

Leon scratched his nose: "So, can you take me to visit Katari?" I felt like I hadn't woken up yet, I needed to eat, take a shower, and get a good night's sleep. ”

"Yes." Arthur agreed without hesitation, then stretched out his right arm and made an inviting gesture: "Let's go." ”

……

Holy Mountain, Katari.

It is a city of magnificence and majesty, like an ancient imperial palace.

It is located on the top of a mountain, surrounded by mountains and rivers, with a beautiful environment and pleasant scenery.

It was late at night, and the moon was hanging high in the sky. The bright silver glow sprinkled on the earth, bathing the whole city in a warm silver glow, like a fairy blessed land in a trance.

The streets are full of traffic and crowds. Armored off-road vehicles drove into the city and into the Wizarding Guild.

In the central square of Katari, a circular fountain is erected.

Above the fountain stands a huge stone pillar, the surface of which is carved in exquisite relief, painted with countless magical runes and magical patterns. Next to the stone pillar, there is also a gate that leads to the underground.

Arthur led Leon through behind the fountain and up the spiral staircase to the third basement level. There are a variety of instruments and tools on display.

"This is the laboratory, the place where the new plague potion is researched." Arthur explains: "The lab is so big that it hasn't stopped working, so no one is dedicated to working here. Whatever you need, I can help you get it. ”

Leon nodded, "I'm in trouble." ”

Arthur beckoned him to a computer and pressed a power button.

An interface pops up on the desktop of the computer. On the left side of the screen are rows of numbers and icons, with a paragraph written in the center.

"Greetings to the honored guests. If you are the first visitor, the system will give you a gold coin as a welcome gift to settle in Katari. ”

Leon casually flicked his wrist, and a wisp of flame erupted from his palm.
