Chapter Twenty-Four: The Man Who Destroys the Street
Immediately after the yellow civet is the new Grand Wizard Colmar of the Northern District.
After all, this is the North District, which can be regarded as Colmar's home field - in fact, the new Grand Wizard has been so slow to appear, it has been beyond Zheng Qing's expectations. He thought that the senior sister would come a little faster.
"You're a humanoid self-propelled bomb," this was the first thing the owner of the Gini Cottage said to Zheng Qing after meeting the two young wizards: "Blow up wherever you go." β
When she came to the scene, she just looked around and grasped the essence of the matter.
If Colmar's first sentence still had a hint of complaining, then her second sentence made Zheng Qing cry and laugh a little.
"I said at the beginning that if you become Lei Zhe, you can pursue me, but now I can relax the conditions a little more leniently. β
As he spoke, the new Grand Wizard glanced at the empty and clean street, and added, "After all, Lei Zhe and Augustus have only destroyed half of the street. β
And Zheng Qing alone destroyed an entire street - this is the unfinished meaning of her words.
Jiang Yu stood behind Zheng Qing and rolled his eyes hard.
Colmar winked at her.
"This matter must have nothing to do with me," the young scholar insisted on his words, while throwing a cauldron at the senior sister: "Aren't you a great wizard? and this is not far from your house...... Don't you hear how lively it is going on here?"
"Excuse me, I just advanced yesterday and haven't stabilized my realm yet!" Colmar replied angrily, "Do you think I'm coming slowly......"
The yellow civet interrupted the exchange of pleasantries between the young wizards.
"Now is not the time to chatter!" it roared, its claws poking into the void, and a vague figure was outlined: "After such a big disaster, you still have the heart to joke?!"
Zheng Qing could easily tell that it was the figure of the gentleman, and his back suddenly straightened a little. It's like the feeling of being called a parent by a teacher after an accident.
"Do you know you're scared?" Huang Hua Fox glanced at the uneasy public scholarship student, and snorted coldly: "...... I'll settle accounts with you later. Now take out your watch and hand it to the old man...... His real body is not on the island, it is just a projection. β
Hearing this, Zheng Qing dared to muster up the courage to sneak a few glances at the blurred figure.
Sure enough, the 'gentleman' who was hooked out of the void by the yellow civet had a serious expression and a bit dull, and his every move was as stiff as an alchemical doll - I think so, Mr. is beyond the existence of ancient wizards, how could he be hooked by the paw of this big cat?
Zheng Qing arranged a few words from the bottom of his heart, and at the same time quickly took out the silver-shelled pocket watch from the gray cloth bag, held it in both hands, and obediently handed it to Mr. Projection.
"Ten minutes," the yellow civet drew on the ground with his paws for a moment, raised his head, looked at 'sir' seriously, and said tentatively, "No, seven, no, five minutes, five minutes is enough." β
Its tone was also a little uncertain.
The projection of the gentleman did not answer him, and after taking the silver pocket watch, he looked up at the dark night sky. The other three people and a cat on the field also followed Mr. 's gaze, and raised their heads to look at the sky.
The dark night sky was like a heavy curtain.
There is no moon, no stars, no clouds, no wind, no wandering spirits and sky lanterns. There is not a trace of a reference that can be used for anchoring.
Zheng Qing blinked, feeling that it was not a problem to look up at it all the time.
He tilted his head quietly and glanced in the direction where 'Mister' was. But what startled him was that the direction was empty, and there was not a trace of people.
"What about sir...... it!"
The boy retracted his gaze and just wanted to ask where his husband was, but when he saw the scene around him, he couldn't help but burst out with a foul mouth - the ruins that were originally empty like a small square have now been restored to their original appearance.
The narrow and deep alleys, the dilapidated gatehouses, the low-hanging eaves, the small and cute roof beasts squatting on the ridges, the strings of rusty wind chimes hanging under the eaves, and the street corners, the hideous-looking and hateful gargoyles.
Just like five minutes ago.
Of course, unlike five minutes ago, the 'Big Bear' and the wizard of the North Side, who were blocking the middle of the road, as well as the tricksters who were hiding in the shadows on both sides of the street, were all gone. The little mushroom people who breathed bubbles of sunlight did not return to this world again.
It's just that the street looks back to normal.
It was not the first time that Zheng Qing had seen Mr. Reversing Time and Space, and he was still taken aback, and the two witches standing next to him were completely speechless.
Especially Colmar.
A few minutes ago, there was a hint of reserve and pride in her expression that a 'great wizard' should have, but after the scene in front of her that surpassed magic, she completely restrained that pride and returned to the caution and uneasiness that the big sister of Gini Cottage should have had a day ago.
"Sir...... Have you gone back?" In the end, it was Zheng Qing who took the lead in breaking the silence in the field.
The yellow civet glanced at him.
"You can ask him the next time we meet. It stretched out its paws, rubbed its eyesβthe one it had pulled out and thrown into the air as 'moon'βand then crouched on the ground, propped up its upper body, and asked in a rough voice:
"The trouble has been solved...... Now, who can tell me what exactly happened just now?!"
Are all the troubles solved?
Zheng Qing glanced at the cat suspiciously, and then glanced in the direction of the school. He didn't remember the school or the Trident people being so easy to dismiss.
Zheng Qing can be casual, but Jiang Yu is not as silent as him.
In a few words, she briefly recounted what happened - from the two of them leaving the Sakura Tavern, to being blocked on the road, being touched by people, and the conflict occurred, and so on. The cause, process, and effect of the whole thing are not complicated. To ensure the accuracy of the information, she also carefully described the image of the trickster who looked like a 'big bear' and the emaciated wizard of the North End.
Colmar had listened with relish.
It wasn't until the 'Wizard of the Northern District' appeared in the accident and summoned an Outer God Phantom that the new Grand Wizard's face slowly turned pale.
"It can't be!"
After listening to Jiang Yu's story, Colmar gritted his teeth, and his voice trembled a little: "...... It was just a spell mark, and it definitely didn't have the ability to provoke the 'outer gods'...... Even if Albon sucks up a whole Tanggula white mantle, he won't be able to recruit it! And Albon definitely doesn't have the ability to suck up a whole Tanggula white mantle!"
After listening to the descriptions of Zheng Qing and the others, she already knew the identity of the wizard from the Northern District who was present.
Jiang Yu glanced at her cautiously.
"That's what we're seeing," she said, trying to excuse Colma, "maybe there's something else going on that we didn't see." β
"Perhaps...... But the kid named Albon, who sacrificed a sorcerer, is a fact. The yellow civet hung its head, and its fluffy tail swept around behind him, and Zheng Qingzhi wanted to step on it.
