Daniel actually didn't like this person very much, and he wasn't even sure if the person in front of him was actually a person.

Anyone who grew up on the continent wouldn't like necromancers.

Since the discovery of necromancy 25,000 years ago, necromancers have not had a good reputation, and during the period of the Holy Light Church, they were treated as hereticals, even after the collapse of the church, these magicians who deal with corpses and corruption every day in people's impressions are still not welcome, even if necromancy as an advanced magic of the earth system has many magic and research value, it is still driven out of the continent by the orthodox magic circle.

"Prince Daniel, it's not too early, our plan remains the same, and someone else will contact you when we return to Thunder City."

"Can you enter Thunder City?" Daniel frowned, "Mr. Stone, should I express my surprise?" ”

"You're mistaken." The necromancer known as Stone said in a strange manner: "Not all of us are necromancers, not to mention that you are not the only one who cooperates with us on the mainland, I think it's time to introduce you to more friends...... Rest assured, that's a great benefit to our business. ”

Daniel was extremely complicated, but in the end he still said, "I'm waiting for your news. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Stone's body slowly melted into the ground, waving goodbye to him when he was only half of his body left, and the scene was eerie, and finally disappeared.

……

……

In the darkness before dawn.

Rupert Cotton slowly opened his eyes, and in the darkness, he slowly put on the white priest's robe, put on his boots unhurriedly, and wiped his face with the water left from the basin last night.

As one of the world's top light spell inheritors, he has a healthier body than the average magician, and if nothing else, he will live longer. But like other magicians, the Light Priest also needs to sleep, and a good night's sleep is important for both physical and mental strength.

Since coming to the fortress, Rupert has been living in the castle.

Over the past few days, Coral has taken him all over Winterfall and the Fortress.

Rupert has been to many places all his life, and few people have seen more than him, he has been to the most prosperous cities in the Western Continent, to the most wonderful deep-sea palaces of the Naga people. Of course, Twilight City is not as good as those places, but there is always an indescribable feeling here, that vigorous and thriving atmosphere, even for him, an old man with no country and no family, is very yearning.

Coral has a separate office and bedroom in the castle.

Other ministers rarely lived in the castle, Sophia generally lived on the plantation, and Matthew and Wald, among others, preferred to live where they worked.

Coral is the only one who prefers to live here, as the castle's kitchen often has all sorts of new treats and food - the lord has a very good aesthetically pleasing attitude, but he always has a different way of eating.

Rupert's room is right next door to Coral.

In the words of the lord, this was to facilitate the communication between their master and apprentice.

This was very much to his liking, after all, Rupert was here to continue teaching the Coral Light spell.

Although this little apprentice is a little lazy and willful, his talent and understanding are really good, and Rupert pins all his hopes on her.

Kicking off the day with the first rays of sunlight in the morning has many benefits for practicing light spells.

Therefore, Rupert would wake up his disciples and go outside to meditate with himself before dawn every day, which made Sango, who had been lazy for more than three years, very unhappy, but he couldn't disobey it.

"Tuk-tuk."

The knocking on the door continued for a long time.

Then a short figure in a white nightdress opened the door, with sleepy eyes on his face, and said with a little anger: "Teacher, what time is it, there is a mechanical clock in the room, can't you take a look?" ”

Rupert laughs: "The most important time of the day is in the morning, and snooze is not a good habit. ”

"But it's not early in the morning, it's still a long time before dawn, and I want to sleep!" Coral loses her temper.

"It's a little early, but today is a special situation, hurry up and change your clothes, there's a fun thing in the fortress." Rupert coaxed and deceived.

"Fun?" When Coral heard this word, he instantly sobered up, rubbed his eyes, and said, "Then I'll come right away." ”

……

……

The night was cold.

Stone walks on the land outside the castle.

The scent of the night and the earth were his two favorite things, and they gave him a sense of security.

At one point, he even had a crazy idea of whether to wait here for a few more days, when Roman Sagan arrived, and see if he could continue to hide under the nose of the mysterious magister.

In the East China Sea, "Magister" has always been a mocked term, and in the eyes of necromancers, it is nothing more than the self-righteousness of mainland magicians.

Stone, however, eventually dismissed the idea.

The experience of the irregular, dangerous sea made him develop a habit of prudence.

He glanced back at the castle that stood tall in the darkness.

"The people on the mainland are so comfortable, why do you weak people have all this." Stone muttered to himself, then snorted disdainfully and turned to leave.

However, the next moment, I suddenly noticed that something was wrong.

Stand still.

His long-term vigilance allowed him to lock on to a position in an instant.

Not far away, a petite figure was facing him.

In the darkness, Stone could only tell that it was a child, but he couldn't see the other person's appearance and demeanor.

At such a time, how can there be a child outside.

Did you happen to meet a sleepwalking kid?

Stone didn't dare to relax in the slightest.

There was silence, and occasionally there was a bird call of unknown species.

The chill before the dawn of winter, coupled with this weird child, somehow, actually made the necromancer who had never had a concept of temperature feel the slightest chill.

Although he is not afraid, after all, he is on someone else's territory and does not want to cause more trouble.

After hesitating for a moment, he still decided to go in a different direction.

The next moment, however, the child suddenly raised his hand.

A not-so-strong but conspicuous light burst out of her hand.

The white light illuminates the child's surroundings and reflects her figure and appearance clearly.

It was a little girl, dressed in a crisp white robe.

The little pink face was still a little sleepy, and she was looking in this direction with an unhappy face.

Stone was stunned.

I saw the little girl stretch out her other hand, slowly put it to her mouth, and covered her mouth with the palm of her hand.

And then.

A long yawn.
