Chapter 6 006: Saying Goodbye
Ryan chose the alchemy workshop that Luo Xi also yearned for. He also liked metal puppets and sophisticated mechanical instruments. His sister Lily didn't have a strong opinion and applied for the alchemy workshop like him.
Jobri went to Ramso School of Magic, a wizarding organization with the most complete range of magic teaching after the Elemental Castle.
Ryan looked at the badge on Luo Xi's chest and said enviously: "Luo Xi, you really entered the Elemental Castle!"
The other two had the same expression.
Although they also joined the eight major wizard organizations on the South Coast, they are still a level lower than top organizations like the Elemental Castle.
“Everyone is pretty much the same.”
Shaking his head, Luo Xi did not dwell on this topic, but turned his head and looked around and asked: "Where is Nicole? Has no one seen Nicole?"
All three of them shook their heads.
Lily said, "She disappeared when we disbanded. I don't know where she went."
Rosie frowned.
He originally wanted to thank this noble lady. After all, if it weren't for her, she wouldn't have passed the test so easily and won the appreciation of wizard Luke and a scroll of spells as a gift.
Jobli said, "They are probably still testing in some tent. Let's go take a look first. This place is so small and we will meet in a while."
So Luo Xi didn't bother about it anymore.
Everyone went to the market together. There were already many small stalls set up here. The goods inside were so diverse that it opened Luo Xi's eyes.
There are fire-breathing lizards, quill pens that can write by themselves, glowing hairpins, strange-tasting beans that turn your skin green when eaten, space pockets that can hold a lot of things, and so on.
It's just like a flea market on Earth, but the things sold here are all weird and strange.
After strolling around the market, Lily spent two magic stones to buy the glowing hairpin, Ryan spent two magic stones to buy a quill pen and one magic stone to buy strange-tasting beans.
Jobri used all his money to buy the fire-breathing lizard because he said he loved it so much.
Luo Xi also gained something. He bought a space pocket, which was the size of a palm, but the actual capacity inside was about the same as a schoolbag. Luo Xi found it very convenient, and the price was exactly five magic stones.
After spending all their money, everyone tried Ryan's strange-tasting beans.
These beans are very strange. After you eat them, your whole head will twist and swell, and your skin will turn dark green, just like the monster Shrek.
We played until noon when it was time to set off, and then we reluctantly parted.
Before leaving, everyone said goodbye to each other with blessings: "Everyone, keep up the good work, and we will all become wizards when we meet next time!"
"I, Ryan, will definitely have a powerful alchemical puppet!"
"Lily is going to be beautiful!"
"Haha, Luo Xi, you better be careful, I will definitely surpass you next time."
"Yeah, come on."
It is very regrettable that no one could find Nicole from beginning to end, and no one knew where this noble lady had gone and why she was not present at such an important moment.
There's nothing we can do about it.
With this regret in mind, everyone went in different directions and got on carriages to different destinations.
Luo Xi also boarded the carriage heading to the Elemental Castle.
From the outside, it looks like an ordinary horse-drawn carriage, with a carriage only about one or two meters long. However, when you actually walk in, the interior space is surprisingly large.
There are two rows of seats on each side of the aisle in the middle, with a total of twenty to thirty rows, which can accommodate fifty to sixty people. It doesn't feel like being in a carriage at all, but rather like being in a bus.
Luo Xi looked around and saw that there were about 10 to 20 people sitting inside, and most of the chairs were empty.
Everyone was either sitting alone or gathered in their own small circles, and there was an arrogant look on their faces that was very conspicuous among their peers.
There were thousands of apprentices transported here from all directions this time, but only a dozen or so actually entered the Elemental Castle. Each of them was picked from hundreds, so it was natural for them to be so arrogant.
Luo Xi also saw Joshua here. He was sitting alone in the front seat, with a circle of people around him empty and no one approaching.
Many apprentices would look at him, and their expressions were always full of envy.
The news of Joshua's fourth-class talent has spread. As the only one with fourth-class talent among thousands of apprentices, Luo Xi heard many people talking about him when he was strolling around.
Luo Xi found a seat by the window, sat down, tidied himself, leaned back in the chair, closed his eyes and prepared to rest for a new journey.
But as soon as he closed his eyes, he felt an itchy nose, as if something was brushing his nose.
“A-choo!”
He sneezed loudly and opened his eyes at the same time.
“Hehehe~”
A pleasant laughter like the sound of a clear silver bell rang out, and the girl in the lace skirt played with a strand of wine-red hair in her hand and giggled.
Luo Xi was stunned: "Nicole? Why are you here?"
The girl in front of him was none other than Nicole.
Nicole smiled and said, "Why? Don't you welcome me when you see me?"
Luo Xi was very confused. After all, he knew Nicole's test results, which were far from meeting the requirements of the Elemental Castle.
"Okay, I won't tease you anymore."
Nicole smiled playfully and took out a bracelet: "Here, this one."
Luo Xi took the bracelet and looked at it. He could faintly feel a spiritual fluctuation on it. It should be a magical item. There was also an emblem of the Elemental Castle on the middle ornament.
Nicole explained: "This is a magical item that my ancestors left to our family. It has a defensive spell sealed inside it."
"In addition to protecting the safety of our people, it also has another function. When an heir with the potential to be a wizard appears in our family, it can be used as a token of trust."
Luo Xi suddenly realized.
In addition to the normal way of joining by passing the assessment, if you hold a token of a wizarding organization, you can also join directly without paying attention to the assessment conditions, which is equivalent to a backdoor.
Luo Xi said: "I see, so you have already decided to go to the Elemental Castle, and you have been teasing us these days."
Nicole's cheeks turned red, and she said with a perfunctory voice: "I just don't want to destroy the beauty of the wizarding world in your minds, okay? I'm thinking about you."
"That's true."
Luo Xi had nothing to say about this. Fair competition was impossible in modern society, let alone in another world.
He changed the subject and said, "Why didn't you come out just now? We have been looking for you. Everyone wants to say goodbye to you."
Nicole stopped smiling and her eyes became a little sad.
She looked out the window and said, "I hate saying goodbye. Once you say goodbye, you may never see each other again. Instead of that, it's better not to say goodbye."
She vowed, "As long as we haven't said goodbye, then it doesn't count as separation. We will definitely meet again."
After he said this, Luo Xi realized belatedly that he had just experienced a separation.
Even in modern society, many friends living in the same city may not see each other for many years, let alone this wizarding world.
Everyone is heading in different directions, heading towards different lives. Will there really be a day when we will meet again? Staring at the dust rising outside the window, Luo Xi silently pondered and embarked on the journey. (End of this chapter)
