Chapter 42 Contact

Lizzie wasn't beside Curt at this time, and her hoarse voice came from nowhere, pouring directly into Curt's head, almost like whispering in his ear.

This is a rather complex ancient spell called "Soul Bond". It is said that in the past, this spell was also used by spies from various countries to transmit information to the top. It's just that in Lizzie's hands, this spell has been reduced to a way to communicate with Curt who is not around.

Hearing Lizzie's call, Curt didn't immediately respond to her, but turned his head to ask Beate, "Beat, when was the last inspection of this site?"

"According to the regulations agreed at the time, the Academy's inspection team will patrol the site alternately. Beate continued to flip through the notebook in his hand, "This is the last inspection conducted by the guard team half a month ago, and as for the academy side, I don't have detailed information. ”

"I see, I see. It's not too early, so in order to save time, let's divide into three ways here. Curt nodded, pointing to the bare ruins of the research building, "Byatt, you will divide yourself into two groups and go to the living area and the material storage area to inspect, and I will go to the research building alone." ”

The last remnants of the sun were also swallowed up by the horizon, and the lilac of night stained every inch of the land and gradually deepened. It was too late, and Grostide had asked them to complete the investigation as quickly as possible before they left, and that they must rush back to the search headquarters before it was completely dark.

"Yes, let's gather here after the investigation. ”

Beate wanted to object, but after looking at the time, he had to agree. He and the other three security officers are not good at combat, and fighting alone is to deal with Cheng DΓΉ who is left and right of the gangsters, and it is really difficult for them to deal with monsters. As for Curt, Byatt knew that he had a good ability to act alone, and if he had a guard officer who was not good at dealing with monsters to act with him, he would have to be distracted to protect them.

Curt's arrangement actually makes sense, and it's safer to work in groups of two than alone. The living quarters in this ruin are not far from the material storage area, and it is convenient for the two groups to help each other.

Soon the four of them decided on the group by drawing lots, and without hesitation, they each ran to the target area. Curt looked at their distant backs, pulled out a seemingly ordinary small stone from his pocket, and poured magic into it. Suddenly, the small stone was shrouded in an indecipherable glimmer of light.

"The response is so slow, what are you doing?"

A moment later, Lizzie's voice came to Curt's head again. Sensing that she seemed to be a little dissatisfied with her slow reaction, Curt took the opportunity to tell her about her previous life.

"Hey, it's a weird monster I've never seen before, and it's located near the academy again...... It's a bit of a coincidence. After listening to Curt's information, Liqi's voice became much more serious, "It's interesting, tell me the results of the investigation afterwards." ”

"That's natural, there are too many doubts. Curt replied quietly as he walked towards the research building with only the frame left, "How are you over there, what's interesting?" or ...... It has to do with ultramarine. ”

"Soul Connection" is very complex, it is not a spell that can be used simply, and usually when the two need to make contact, Lizzie can only unilaterally use spells to construct a contact path. The convenience lies in the fact that as long as the spell is successfully cast, then the two parties can share the right to use the channel.

"No, it's not sure that it has anything to do with Ultramarine, so you can listen to me first. ”

Lizzie replied slowly.

Moving slightly forward to a few minutes before Curt appeared in the body, and after sorting out the belongings he had sent to her new dorm, Lizzie was driven by her curiosity to walk the streets of the academy quarters.

Over the years, the Cutrice College dormitory has become quite luxurious, with a courtyard that is deliberately modeled after the Empire. Next to Lizzie's dormitory building is a delightful green meadow, with a gravel path connecting it to the teaching area.

Lizzie was walking down the trail at the time, and out of some habit, she allowed herself to slowly walk in the shadows. When she came back in the evening, she saw many apprentices coming and going on the path, but by this time the night was dark, and only a few lights were still on the upper floor of the dormitory to prove that this place was not unpopular.

Everywhere you can see a small garden specially fenced out, and the colorful flowers give off a good smell in the summer breeze, making people's worries drift away with the wind. The fountain in the middle of the lawn was still working, and there was a gurgling sound of weak water.

There was no sound of people around, the insects who were not willing to be lonely were squeaking and making noise, and the academy under the cover of night seemed to have changed its appearance, giving people a wonderful feeling.

"Well, I know the academy is interesting, but what exactly are you up to?"

Curt waved his hand to interrupt the images that Lizzie kept sending directly into his mind, and he felt that the set of textual descriptions of the night academy that Lizzie had copied from a random book. He knew that Lizzie liked to read popular novels, but he didn't remember that she had a talent for writing stories.

Even if these weren't copied descriptions, he didn't think they made much sense - Lizzie always did, laying out a lot of what was and didn't before getting to the point.

"Hehehe, don't be in a hurry, you can't eat delicious food if you're in a hurry. Lizzie snickered, a sneering laugh echoing through the soul connection in Curt's head, "You should just calm down and check the ruins of the Research Building now, and then listen to what I have now." ”

The research building was a three-story masonry building with a modest faΓ§ade, and the fire left the building with only a fragmented skeleton. The building was cleaned, no glass, doors or windows remained, and the blackened cubicles showed no signs of their past functions.

Curt took Lizzie's night-time adventures as a deaf ear, and took it upon himself to examine every nook and cranny of the building, trying to see if there were any hidden pathways. But he toured every compartment of the floor, and it turned out that there was no room for a secret passage or a secret door.

From Beate to Curt, the fire started in the middle of the first floor and spread to the entire building, burning down all the rooms. Walking all the way, you can clearly see that there are still scorched black marks on the walls of all the rooms on this floor, and there is a ** breath wafting from the cracked walls.

There was no result on his side, but what Lizzie said gradually became meaningful: "At about 22 o'clock, I walked to the edge of the elemental building. Theoretically, the academy had forbidden the apprentices from the teaching area at this time, but I saw a few acquaintances there. ”

As Lizzie said this, a picture gradually appeared in Curt's mind.

In a room on the first floor of the hexagonal building, several students in black robes gathered together and whispered. They opened a dusty cupboard and took out several glass bottles containing light blue crystals and put them in their backpacks.

The college does prohibit students from entering the teaching area after 10 p.m. without special permission, but there is no strict requirement to leave the area within the specified time. Students or teachers who are usually late in class will wait for the last batch of four-wheelers at the transport station.

But the students didn't look like they were delaying their time out of school because of their schoolwork, and they sneakily took out the glass jars with the materials and put them in the same number of empty jars - this was a bit like stealing the college's spare supplies.

"Who are these people?"

He hadn't seen the faces of the apprentices, only that they were between seventeen or eighteen years old. Several of them looked rather suspiciously dressed, as if to hide their identities, all of them changed into black robes, and at the same time did not wear the badge that represented their status.

"Ah, I forgot...... Haven't shown you their faces before. Lizzie's voice rang out again, "The reason for these people is that two of them are followers behind Danvers." I've heard from them that Danfoss claims to be doing the next step so let them come here and 'fetch' some material."

"It's unlikely, isn't it......?"

Curt was a little surprised that the academy required apprentices to report to the instructor when they needed to conduct research, and they could only start experimenting with their permission, and they would also receive a material grant from the academy. As a result, he had never heard of an apprentice stealing materials from the Academy's reserves for practical purposes.

Lizzie snickered, and a sneering laugh echoed in Curt's head: "Yes, basically the academy has a very tolerant attitude towards students' independent research, as long as it is not a violation of the law, no matter how whimsical the students are, they will support it in a certain way." ”

As if she was mocking, she said again: "Then again, as long as it is not a violation of the law, you can get additional subsidies, and it is worthy of being the largest academy in the Dominion, which is really wealthy." ”

Thinking according to this provision, Danfoss's real yΓ n did not receive the support of the Academy. It is also against the law for anyone to come into contact with ancient magic without supervision in private. In fact, Curt thinks he may have chosen to go underground to continue his research on the premise that his application was not granted.

"Let's not talk about the attitude of the academy......"

He couldn't understand what kind of obsession was supporting Danfoss's actions.

"You don't think Danfoss is quite right, do you?" Lizzie read Curt's thoughts first, "so I spent a lot of time in the academy doing a brief investigation of him during the day today. To my surprise, this apprentice in the elemental department is quite famous in the theory department. ”

"Hank Danvers, formerly of the Theory Department of Catrice College, was transferred to the Elemental Department more than a year ago because of his ability to cast spells. Interestingly, the table of this 'honor student' who was admired by everyone was not the same as it is now. ”
