An old man of short stature with a long beard that obscures his entire face is trying to keep the little fish from swimming.

His wizened arms appeared in front of the heads of the little fish as if they were holding no resistance in the water, forcing them to shake their heads and tails back to their original positions again.

But these little fish, who were intimidated by Raymond's breath, were crazy at this time and wanted to stay away, so even though the old man's speed was very fast, the small fish that had gathered in front of him before still escaped one after another, making him no longer able to isolate Raymond's sight.

Facing Raymond's somewhat strange gaze, the old man, who seemed to realize that he couldn't hide it, looked very embarrassed, lowered his head and rubbed his hands around, until the fish scales on his hands were cleaned up, and then looked at Raymond with a bitter face, and put on an expression like a child who had made a mistake and was waiting for punishment.

It's just that at this time, although Raymond is already face to face with this old man, his body is still blurry in perception, obviously this old man is not an entity of existence, but some kind of projection or doppelganger.

So he thought about it for a moment and asked directly. "Are you ...... Tallister?"

But the old man, who heard the name 'Tallister', stood up straight in vain, his left hand hung down and pressed against his side, while his right hand clenched and slammed into his chest, and roared. "Report to the sir! Tallister, the deputy captain of the 16th Special Detachment of the Seventh Legion, salutes you!"

A fierce aura rushed towards him, and the small fish swimming not far away fell as if struck by lightning, and the beard that had originally covered the old man's face was all scattered, revealing his clear eyes. The wrinkles on his face made it impossible to judge his age, but suddenly there was a concussive wave of water, as if the old man had launched a powerful attack, causing the lake around him to tumble and rush outward!

Raymond, who didn't feel the danger, was surprised when he saw this, but he was happy in his heart. Realizing that the reaction of the old man in front of him should be his instinct!

Because he couldn't understand it, Raymond seemed a little dazed for a while, and unconsciously repeated his words. "Report to the Chief's ......"

It's just that Raymond's words didn't fall, and the old man who raised his right foot and stomped down suddenly became more and more determined, and roared again. "Report to the sir! Tallister, the deputy captain of the 16th Special Detachment of the Seventh Legion, salutes you!"

Raymond, who was staring at the old man, was a little unsure of how to communicate, and the old man, who was also trying to keep his eyes open, also stared at him as if he was waiting for an order, and the atmosphere became extremely strange because the two of them looked at each other so widely.

But as the awkward atmosphere spreads. Because the old man roared twice, the water waves that led zhì to ripple quickly calmed down.

It's just that the fish that sank to the bottom seemed to have died, and formed a hill at the bottom of the lake.

And those dolphin-like creatures that are several meters long. At this time, he came over curiously, but he only walked around Raymond's side, as if he understood that the old man was in danger, and generally did not approach the old man.

Raymond, who was carefully observing the old man, couldn't help but feel a little depressed at this time.

Because as long as his lips move lightly. The old man immediately perked up. It was as if he would answer as soon as he opened his mouth.

How wrong to think!

A strange feeling rose in his heart, and Raymond, who was deeply puzzled, finally thought of a breakthrough after pulling up the three-dimensional image of the water area drawn by the chip, and said with his mouth open. "Take me to your place!"

"Obey the order, sir!" the old man replied without hesitation, and his right fist slammed into his chest again, and then his upper body did not move like a soldier, and after twisting ninety degrees on the spot, he trotted all the way.

The old man's choice is the direction in which the image cannot be drawn by the previous chip. The posture is standard, and the path he travels is also the pen until the flawless Cheng dù.

Swing your arms naturally. The old man who raised his legs and fell at a uniform speed quickly caused the splash under his feet to quickly form a straight line, and Raymond, who was following behind and feeling more and more strange, already had some guesses.

And a moment later, when the old man came to the area that the chip could not describe, Raymond saw a magical scene!

The old man standing in the water raised his left hand, and with the strange syllables that came out of his mouth, Raymond, who had passed through this area, found that under the gradual ripples of the water, a spherical invisible barrier was quickly revealed, and there was actually a green lawn inside, and a three-story spire wizard tower was built on the lawn!

After a pause, the old man who turned around roared at Raymond again. "Report to the sir, the 16th Special Equipment Detachment of the Seventh Army has arrived!"

Raymond, who motioned to the old man to lead the way with his eyes, raised his vigilance.

But after following the old man in, he found that there was no lake in the invisible barrier, and it was a completely dry environment.

The grass is green, the air is fresh, and although the outer walls of the three-story spire wizard tower are covered with green vines, the part that leaks into the line of sight is extremely clean, and there is no trace of wind and rain.

The old man who led Raymond in front did not step on the steps after coming to the door of the wizard tower, but bypassed the wizard tower and took Raymond to the back of the wizard tower, rubbing his hands a little embarrassed and saying with an embarrassed expression. "Report sir, the main residence is currently inaccessible and needs to wait for ......"

Looking at the hut that looked like a kennel on the back of the wizard's tower, Raymond couldn't help but be surprised, but before he could speak, the uneasiness that suddenly sprouted in his heart made him shake his body, and he turned around and stood behind the old man!

Raymond, who looked up, quickly found the reason for his uneasiness, only to see that there was a window at the top of the wizard's tower quietly open, and a pale and delicate face with a deep annoyance actually looked at the old man in front of the hut with stern eyes!

The old man, who also noticed that the window on the wizard tower behind him was open, but he was short and quickly turned around, raised his head and looked a little nervous, and he didn't know what he was talking about.

The woman standing by the window glared at the old man with disgust, and then turned her gaze to Raymond. "Outsider, how did you get in?"

This woman's lofty posture seems to be innate, and although her words are plain, the sense of responsibility contained in them is extremely strong.

Raymond, who bowed his head slightly as a salute, ignored her question and asked directly. "Are you the old dean of the Red Wetlands Wizard Academy?"

The woman, who was obviously stunned, finally had a little surprise in her eyes, and she looked Raymond up and down for a moment, and then shouted at the old man in vain. "Don't go prepare refreshments yet!"

The old man, who was already half shorter unconsciously, immediately agreed. "Yes, master!"

The old man, who didn't even look at Raymond again, ran away.

The woman standing at the window sighed and whispered to Raymond. "Come to the front, it's been a long time since there were any guests......

The tone was gentle and tinged with a hint of amazement, and the woman who disappeared by the window did not forget to pull the window up.

Raymond, who understood that he had found the old dean and Tallister, was excited at this time, but the strange situation in front of him was somewhat unexpected by him.

Turning back to the front of the main entrance from the back of the wizard's tower, Raymond saw that Tallister was busy, tables and chairs, parasols, tableware, wine, and hot tea were being placed one by one, and after the closed door of the wizard's tower was opened, a beautiful woman wearing a white wizard's robe walked out.

After reintroducing his identity, Raymond, who sat down at the invitation of the old dean named 'Seurat', didn't know how to speak for a while.

But the old dean Seurat, who picked up a cup of hot tea, asked directly. "What happened to the little fish guarding the door?"

Raymond, who thought that the inexplicable creature at the bottom of the cold pool before couldn't be a 'small fish' no matter how he looked at it, was a little helpless, so he had to stand up and apologize. "I'm sorry old dean, it seems that I killed ......"

Looking up at Raymond's old dean Seurat, he asked as if he didn't understand. "Is it dead?, did you pull it out?" (To be continued......)
