Senior wizard apprentice Senior is one of them.
He asked someone to distribute the medicine, and seeing that most of the matters at hand had been dealt with, he gave a few instructions and turned to walk towards the house at the back.
Open the door.
He slowly walked to a figure who was doing an experiment and whispered:
"Senior, I just saw Lin En."
"Lynn?" Angus looked up, doubt in his eyes. He thought for a moment before finding the person this name referred to from his memory. He then chuckled and shook his head: "Is he still alive?"
"Alive." Senior bowed his head:
"Not only is he alive, but he seems to be doing well. Wizard Kito made an exception and accepted him as his disciple. He is now a formal apprentice at the academy."
“Hmm…”
"He is now working with Natalie the Witcher."
“Crack!”
A glass container used for experiments suddenly developed cracks, and the solution inside seeped out.
"This batch of materials is substandard. It's time to replace it."
Angus waved his hand expressionlessly, and the broken container and the solution inside were swept into the trash. "Please help me with this matter."
"Yes." Senior bowed his head:
"Please rest assured, senior, I will do my job."
…………
Jeff wiped the sweat from his forehead, took a deep breath to slow down his beating heart, and gently knocked on the door.
"Enter!"
"squeak……"
The strange sound of the door hinge turning lingered in my mind.
Jeff smiled flatteringly and walked to Senior's side in small steps: "Senior, are you looking for me?"
The reason why he lived a comfortable life these years was because he had the support of the other party and was doing business between the academy and the wild wizards.
It can be said that the other party holds everything he has, so naturally he will try every means to please him.
"Um."
Senior was playing with a copper bottle in the shape of a curved gourd. He smiled faintly and patted Jeff on the shoulder:
"Have you been doing well lately?"
"Although the monster invasion is a bad thing, I heard that you made a lot of money from it and even changed your clothes."
"It's all thanks to you, senior." Jeff laughed dryly: "Monster corpses are hard currency. I just happen to have a few things that I want you to help look at their origins..."
"No thanks." Senior waved his hand:
“Guess who I saw today?”
"who?"
“Lynn.”
"..." Jeff licked the corner of his mouth and smiled awkwardly: "Senior, please listen to my explanation. I was planning to attack him, but the person I was looking for had an accident."
"Heh..." Senior raised his eyebrows:
"Who told you to hit him?"
"You're not going to do it?" Jeff was stunned, then came to his senses:
"I also wanted to do my part for Senior Angus, but unfortunately that Lynn was lucky and managed to escape."
"You are so brave that you dare to attack a disciple of the academy?" Senior pointed at him and smiled.
"He wasn't even a formal disciple of the academy at that time." Jeff explained, his expression suddenly changed: "Senior, you don't want me to do it again, do you?"
He dared to take action before because Lin En was kicked out of the academy and no one would care if he killed him.
But now, he had also heard about Lynn.
Killing a formal disciple of the academy is no small matter. Even though he is quite courageous, his face turned pale.
"You've already started." Senior tossed the copper bottle in his hand:
"Isn't it too late to regret now?"
"..." Jeff's eyes were panicked: "Senior, that Lin En is already an intermediate wizard apprentice, and I suspect that the Blue Dog brothers were also killed by him."
"I...I'm afraid I'm no match for him."
"Don't worry." Senior patted his shoulder again and put the copper bottle in his hand into his hand: "I will help you."
"Also, Angus has become an official wizard, but it has not been announced yet, you understand."
Jeff's eyes lit up.
The two top talents of Viper Academy, Angus and Natalie, are now official wizards.
* * * “Click…”
This is a ruin.
It was originally a courtyard for washing clothes.
From the broken stone slabs and broken ditches, it can be seen that there are quite a lot of clothes that need to be washed every day.
"Wizards' robes require special methods to be cleaned and repaired. Even for daily wear, they like to add fragrance and cast magic that fits the body."
A man dressed in tight clothes paced in the field, muttering:
"So the business here is very good. There are dozens of women working on the laundry alone."
"The Susan mentioned by the senior is one of them."
Lynn nodded.
It has been nearly a month since the abyss monsters invaded Weier Town, and Susan has not shown up.
He had been to Susan's home, which had long since been destroyed, and the surviving neighbors had never seen her.
So I asked the town’s law enforcement team to help investigate.
Finally, I found it here.
"Susan took on at least three jobs to make a living, and washing clothes with witchcraft was just one of them."
Lin En asked, "Are you sure she disappeared here?"
"Sure." The man nodded. "We checked other places. According to Miss Susan's schedule at the time, she should be here."
“Senior…”
After hesitating for a moment, the man whispered, "Miss Susan may have been killed. When the monsters invaded, many people were in trouble."
“No.” Lin En shook his head, “There is no large amount of blood here, nor is there any smell of death.”
"That's worse." The man shrugged.
"Abyss monsters will also capture women to help them reproduce, which is more despairing than killing them."
Lynn turned and looked at him, her eyes cold.
"Sorry." The man's face turned pale. "That's not what I meant... Actually, there were many dark wizards who took advantage of the situation to rob people that day. Maybe Miss Susan was taken away by them."
Wizard apprentices are hard currency in the eyes of some dark wizards and are a necessity for witchcraft experiments.
In fact, there are more than just wild wizards.
The wizards in the academy also need living people for experiments, but most of them use magic stones to lure others to cooperate actively.
But there is also forced buying and selling in secret, and as someone who graduated from the academy, of course I know about this kind of thing.
Whether they died in an accident or were abducted by monsters or wild wizards, there would be no good outcome.
But……
I still owe her a magic stone.
Lynn closed her eyes and relaxed her mind and body.
At this time, his physique was comparable to that of a great knight, his mental strength was increasing day by day, and his perception was extremely sharp.
“Hmm…”
Opening his eyes, Lynn walked to a corner of the ruins, bent down and picked up a handful of blue fluff from the ground.
"Let's go!"
"yes."
…………
On the way back, Lin En lowered his eyebrows and examined the fluff in his hand. After a long time, he sighed and put it away.
actually,
Susan's fate was already determined, he just didn't want to admit it.
She was a gentle, kind-hearted girl...
“Swish!”
Lin En's figure flashed, and there seemed to be an afterimage left in the field, and his body had already appeared several meters away.
And where he was originally standing, a meter-long spike pierced through the afterimage and pierced into the thick ground.
The air was rippling with water, and a monster slowly emerged.
Not far away.
Jeff huddled in the corner, holding a gourd-shaped copper bottle in his left hand and stroking the bottle quickly with his right hand.
He was chanting complicated spells.
"Although the two-horned demon is only a low-level monster in the abyss, it is also an advanced existence. Even a legendary knight may not be able to defeat it. It also has a strong resistance to witchcraft. I want to see how you die today!"
