Volume 1: The Scourge of Witchcraft and the Enemies of a Thousand Years Ago Chapter 150: Missing
"Professor Watson?" Alan was stunned, hurriedly put on his clothes and went to open the door.
"Please hurry up, Professor Watson said it was a big deal. Will said.
"What's the matter?" asked Allen.
"I don't know, he'll have to tell you personally. ”
"Okay!" Alan agreed, and went back to the bed to get another thick coat, waking up Riel by the way.
At first, Riel was still in bed and wanted to sleep a little longer, but when he heard that it might have something to do with Alyssa, he immediately got up.
The two hurried to the common room on the first floor, where Professor Watson was pacing anxiously back and forth, apparently having been waiting for a while.
"Something is wrong!" said Professor Watson as soon as he saw them enter.
"What's going on, Professor?" asked Allen.
Professor Watson looked so agitated that he was even breathing a little short: "Alyssa, she'......"
"Is she awake?!" Rare immediately asked, hearing that it was really related to Alyssa.
But unexpectedly, Professor Watson shook his head: "I don't know if she's awake......"
"Don't know?" Riel was a little strange.
"She'......" Professor Watson looked a little hesitant, as if he didn't know what to say, and after a long time he sighed heavily and said, "She's gone!"
The two of them were instantly stunned when they heard the news.
"Gone?" Alan asked, stunned, not understanding what he meant for a moment.
"Uh...... Yes...... I don't know if she's awake, but when I went to check on her room today, she was gone......" Professor Watson said.
"When did you find out?!" Alan quickly asked.
"It's still the old time, and at seven o'clock in the morning, I just arrived at the school hospital. ”
"I'm going to take a look!" Rare turned around and walked away, and Professor Watson followed.
"Not only that, but there are even stranger ......," said Professor Watson worriedly as he walked along the road.
"What?" asked Allen.
Professor Watson thought for a moment and said, "Since she was hospitalized, the first thing I have done when I arrived at the hospital every day has been to check on her, but today I just walked into that corridor and saw that something was wrong...... Tony ......"
"Tony?" Allen felt uneasy, "what's wrong with him?"
"You'll know when you get there......" Professor Watson swallowed, looking nervous.
By this time they had already stepped through the gates of the school hospital, and Rare rushed to the front, turning a corner and entering the corridor on the left.
But as soon as Riel turned the corner, Alan heard him suddenly exclaim, "Ahhhhh
"What's wrong?" Alan hurriedly ran over to check the situation, and found that Rare had fallen to the ground, staring at a person not far away in a daze, looking at the figure as if it was Tony.
Alan was a little strange, and just wanted to ask him why he was so surprised, but after looking at him intently, he was completely speechless...... Tony's whole body was in a huge, transparent block of ice - he was frozen!
"That's it......" Professor Watson said in a trembling voice, "I don't know what happened to him to become like this......
Alan helped Riel up, and the two looked at each other before cautiously approaching Tony.
He was near the doorway of Alyssa's hospital room, and he remained motionless in a turn-around position, with a surprised expression on his face, as if he had seen something terrible before he became like this.
Alan lightly touched the ice cube with his fingers, and found that it was unusually cold and biting, and the moment his fingers touched the ice, the heat in his whole body seemed to be drained in an instant.
"I'd suggest you don't touch it!" Professor Watson said with a serious face, "This magic is very advanced!"
Alan immediately pulled his hand back.
"Who did this!" Rare looked nervous.
"I don't know......" Alan and Professor Watson shook their heads at the same time.
But what worries them even more is Alyssa.
The two of them hurriedly entered the ward again, and found that as Professor Watson said, the tree of life was empty, only the mouth was still slowly opening and closing, and Alyssa, who was still lying in it, was completely gone.
"What the hell is going on......" Allen's heart began to beat violently, and an ominous premonition slowly rose in his heart.
"I'll look for it in the library!" Riel suddenly exclaimed.
"Why?" Alan looked at him puzzled.
"She must be awake! I know her...... She's going to be there!if she's awake!" Riel was a little incoherent as he said as he walked out.
But Alan grabbed him: "Wait! I'd better ask Will to send a little Sipheus to her room first, she still has a better chance of resting in the room after recovering from a serious illness!"
"So, you go to Will, I'll go to the library, save time!" Riel said without waiting for a moment.
"Okay, we'll meet in that lounge on the first floor in half an hour!" said Allen.
"How can I help you?" asked Professor Watson.
"Uh...... If you wish, please report the situation here to Professor Stubourne, and I hope he will take this matter very seriously!" said Allen, "I'm afraid it would be ...... if it were us."
"Good!" Professor Watson nodded.
After saying that, the three of them went their separate ways.
There were only a few places Alyssa frequented—her room, the library, and Professor Frost's office. According to Allen's logic, they should have almost found her after half an hour.
But what they didn't expect was that half an hour later, when they met in that lounge, they found that there was still nothing.
"How's it going over there?" asked Riel as he pushed the door open.
Since he only had to wait for news, Alan stayed in that break room the whole time.
"She's not in the room!" said Allen, "what about you?"
"She's not in the library either...... I've searched the entire first and second floors!" said Riel, "There are almost no people in the library today, and I can guarantee that I didn't miss a look!"
"Is it really in Professor Frost's office again?" Alan muttered to himself.
"It must be there, and it's only there that I haven't been looking for it!"
Just then, Professor Watson pushed the door open and entered.
After briefly explaining the situation to him, Alan wanted to go with Riel to Professor Frost's office to have a look. But unexpectedly, Professor Watson told them something even more unexpected: "I suggest that you don't waste your efforts...... I heard you yesterday that something was wrong when you were discussing the lamp and Professor Frost, so I asked Professor Frost about the situation after reporting the whole thing to Professor Stubourne, only to be told that she had taken a leave of absence three days ago and was no longer in the school......"
"Already left three days ago?!" Alan was taken aback by the thought of the lamp that had been haunting the hospital at midnight lately.
"I'll take a look!" Riel reluctantly made another run to the Elemental Tower, only to find that Professor Watson was telling the truth, as he had knocked on the door of Room 601 for nearly ten minutes, but there was not even a sound inside.
Shortly after, Professor Stubourne's voice came to the air: "Alyssa Dark, if you can hear her, please contact me, or Dr. Watson at the University Hospital, and any student who finds her to report her whereabouts to me immediately...... In addition, all teachers and students who are currently in the school are advised not to go near the school hospital, except for some relevant personnel!"
This voice was so loud that it was estimated that every corner of the entire campus could be heard clearly, and I wondered how powerful the amplification magic Professor Stubone had used.
And it seemed wise to have Professor Watson report on the matter, as Professor Stubone did seem to be taking the matter seriously, and he had told him several times after he had said it. This comforted Allen's heart.
However, until noon, they still did not hear anything about Alyssa.
The three of them were at a loss, and they just stayed in the break room for a whole morning, without any clue about these things.
So after lunch, they decided to go to the school hospital again to check on the situation.
But this time, as soon as they stepped into the gate of the school hospital, they were surprised to find that there were a lot of chaotic footsteps inside, which did not look like they were usually deserted.
The voice came from the corridor on the left.
The three of them walked over quickly, and found that a large group of people were gathering at the door of the ward, surrounding Tony, who was frozen, and he didn't know what he was busy with.
Among the people in this group who Allen alone knew were Professor Stubourne, the executive vice principal, Frey, the first-year prefect, Professor Fran, who taught the wind elemental magic, and Professor Brand, who taught the fire elemental magic, and a few people who didn't know who looked like senior professors.
Not only that, but there was also a familiar figure standing by the wall - Cynthia.
"Why are you here?" asked Allen, who hurried over to him.
"I knew that she disappeared suddenly, and you would naturally be worried to death...... Since Professor Stubone has repeatedly mentioned not to be allowed to come near here, it must have something to do with it. Cynthia smiled, "And you should know, as long as I speak, I'm a relevant person." ”
"I see...... Alan nodded, then pointed to the busy group of professors and asked, "So what are they here for?"
"I still need to ask, of course, to find a way to save this poor worm. Cynthia looked at Tony in the ice, shrugged, and said, "It's just that they've been working here for almost an hour, and they can't do anything." ”
"Isn't it, even these professors can't do it?" Riel was startled.
"Do you think this is something that can be handled with a very open mouth?" At this time, Frey walked over, glanced at Rare and said, "The level of this magic is beyond the imagination of all the professors present!"
