Volume 1 The Scourge of Witchcraft and the Enemy of a Thousand Years Ago Chapter 154 The Cold of Déjà Vu
In such a silent environment, Cynthia's words were like a knife, mercilessly cutting the last straw in everyone's heart.
Panic spread among them like a plague, and everyone couldn't help but start sighing incessantly.
"Mother......" Obviously, the little girl from the space-time department who was in charge of picking up Professor Fran had a poor psychological capacity, and she couldn't help but start crying quietly at the thought that she might freeze to death in this castle like this.
In order to comfort her, Professor Fran held her hand and asked Professor Rochelle with a forced composure, "Then can you send us to Krivari by starlight?"
Although it could be seen that Professor Rochelle also wanted to say "yes", he hesitated for a moment and shook his head: "I don't know...... I've never moved this far in one go, so I don't know how much mana it takes to make it ......"
"And what about outside the city?" Professor Fran asked, "you send us out of the city, and then we take the carriage to Krivari for help......
"Never!" Professor Watson quickly stopped them when he heard about the plan, "We don't know how big this barrier is now...... Is this the only thing in the castle, or is it covered in ice even around the castle? It's too dangerous for him to go out rashly......"
"And the ice has covered every crevice of the castle, and the carriage will certainly not be able to leave the castle, and the road is deserted, and even if you are lucky enough to get out of the city, you will not be able to walk back to Criv......ari on two feet," Professor Rochelle added.
Professor Fran was silent when he heard this. They had no idea what was going on outside, and if Professor Rochelle had sent them out of the city, their lives might have to be answered.
The room fell silent again, and it was a long time before they returned to the first floor to discuss what to do with Professor Stubourne.
However, when they reached the first floor, Professor Stubone was even worse. Originally, only his left hand was frozen on the ice wall, and his consciousness was still quite clear, but now he was sitting on the floor, his back against the ice wall, his head drooping, and he was completely motionless.
Professor Watson hurried forward to check on the situation, and found that he was completely cold, and he had completely fainted from the cold.
Everyone lost their backbone in an instant. Although Professor Stubone usually doesn't care much about their affairs, now that Mr. Winslow's whereabouts are unknown, and he is the most authoritative vice chancellor and unconscious, everyone who is already in a desperate situation suddenly does not know what to do next.
After a long discussion, the professors finally decided to send the students back to their dorms first, and then they brought the other professors together to discuss the next steps.
However, to Allen's surprise, when the two students were about to send them back separately according to Professor Rochelle's instructions, Frey, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly spoke: "Just send me to their building with them." ”
Alan was curious, why did Frey suddenly want to go with them when he lived in the next building?
When Cynthia heard Frey say this, she looked at him a few times and said, "Then send me there by the way." ”
"Hey, I said, that's a boys' dormitory......" When Riel heard that she was going too, he hurriedly stopped: "He's okay to say, he's a boy anyway, you're a girl......"
"Don't worry about that, just send me over!" Cynthia interrupted him impatiently, and then said to the girl who was going to send her back alone, "You go first, I'll go with them." ”
"Uh...... Alright then......" The girl glanced at Professor Rochel with some embarrassment, and found that he was discussing a plan with the other two professors, so she left using Starlight.
The rest of the boy took Alan, Riel, Cynthia, and Frey into the hallway of their building.
It was much warmer than the school hospital, except for the silence in the common room, which sounded like a couple of second-floor kids were pretending to be discussing what was going on, because there was the sound of little Temnabo.
"Thank you. After sending the boy away, Frey said to Alan and Riel, "Actually, I have something to tell you. ”
Cynthia smiled slightly, looking like she had guessed correctly.
"It's not convenient here, take me to a place where no one is around. Frey said.
"Hmm...... ......" Alan hesitated for a moment, thinking that only the common room at the end of the corridor might be empty, so he knocked on the gnome's door.
"Yo, I saw you go out but didn't see you come back, I thought I was frozen outside like those poor children. Will opened the door and saw that it was Allen, and quipped, "Milk or coffee?
"No thanks. "I just want to borrow the key to the common room at the end of the hallway." ”
"Oh?" Will poked his head out, only to realize that there were three other people besides Allen.
"You're ...... too," Will was slightly stunned when he saw Frey.
"Give him the key, Seapheth. Frey said.
I saw Will instantly put away his joking tone, became serious and serious, and bowed to Frey: "Obey your orders." Then he handed the key to Alan.
Alan saw that Will's attitude had suddenly changed so much, and wanted to ask something, but Frey had already urged: "Let's go, I hope everything is still in time." ”
As soon as he said this, Alan swallowed all the questions he wanted to ask, and quickly led them to the lounge.
The room was warmer and the fire in the fireplace never seemed to go out.
The four of them sat down around the fireplace, each pouring another hot drink.
"What the hell did you find?" Cynthia asked impatiently, "You didn't just want to have a cup of tea when you called them here?"
"How could it be. Frey smiled and said, "Just some clues about this strange event......"
"Clues?" the other three were all startled, "you've found it?"
"Hmm...... Fray looked down for a moment...... then said to Cynthia, "It's understandable that you didn't see anything wrong, but they're a little too slow." ”
"What do you mean by that?" Riel couldn't help but hear him say this, and immediately wanted to rush to Frey to reason a few words.
But fortunately, Alan grabbed him.
"Senior, can you please explain more clearly?" Alan said, looking at Frey.
"For his sake, I won't bother with you...... But if you dare to talk to me in this way, your missing friend will never be found. Frey said with a dismissive look at Riel.
However, his words made Alan wonder for a while: "For my sake?"
Riel also wanted to be angry, so he didn't care about the status and ability gap, he just couldn't get used to Frey's high-ranking appearance. But when I heard what he said, it seemed to be related to Alyssa, so I finally held back.
"You two don't feel it, this cold seems familiar?" Before Alan could figure out what he meant by that sentence, Frey continued.
"Déjà vu?" Alan was stunned.
"It's never been so cold in the winter, not to mention that it's not winter, it's just mid-October. Riel didn't understand, so he said angrily.
"Not about your hometown, but in this school. Frey glanced at him and asked, "As far as I know, you must have been to a place like this, a place that is as cold as it is today in a season when it shouldn't be this temperature." ”
"In this school?" said Allen, frowning, as he began to carefully recall the bits and pieces of what had happened before.
They'd been in the school for almost a month and a half, and there were only a few places Frey could tell they'd been: the auditorium, the plaza, the Four Seasons Garden, the dormitories, the twin spires, the library, the cafeteria, the school hospital, and the enchantment classrooms. But these places are normal, although it feels a little cold at night lately, but there is no ice in any place......
"Is it the Revolving Book House?" Alan thought, looking at Cynthia. But he dismissed the idea on a second thought, there was no ice or anything like that, and Frey probably didn't know they had been there.
"Where the hell is that......" Alan thought for a long time but couldn't come up with an answer.
Just as he was about to ask again, Riel suddenly looked at him in surprise and said, "Ahhh......h
"What?" Alan was stunned, and even Riel remembered?
"We've been to a place that has the same cold ...... as today," Riel muttered.
"Hey, your head is finally brighter?" Frey gave him a disdainful look.
"Where?" Alan quickly asked.
I saw Riel look at Frey with a strange expression, and then leaned into Allen's ear and whispered, "You forgot...... It's a dungeon......"
"Ahh Indeed, as Riel had said, the place where Doug was locked up was quite cold, and he had touched the walls there, and it was bitterly cold even though it wasn't frozen. The reason why he didn't think of this place just now was precisely because there was a condition that "Frey and they all knew" was restricting his train of thought, and what he didn't expect was that Frey actually knew that they had been there...... Rare may not have thought about it at all, just thinking about every place they've been to since the beginning of school.
"But that's not right...... Alan couldn't help but panic a little when he thought about it carefully, "how did he know about the dungeon we went to?" remembered the scene that day, they met Frey when they came out of the dungeon and were pestered by a member of the Discipline Inspectorate Committee, and he helped them out of the siege at that time......
Alan looked at Frey suspiciously, only to find that he didn't speak at this moment, but lowered his head and began to drink coffee.
"Ahh......h
