The sun is high

The impact of "Poseidon's Roar" has begun to disappear, which has caused the temperature in Salem City to begin to drop again. It won't be long before people traveling at night will have to wear heavy windbreakers.

Old Schubert was like a bamboo pole trembling in the cold wind, and the luggage he carried looked like a rag bag hanging in the cold wind.

"Sally..."

"Stop talking about Uncle Schubert, you've said it many times along the way!"

Young Sally was also in a state of high tension. She felt that even her breath was trembling.

It is not easy to make such a choice. Everything about old Schubert is in the city of Salem. Once he makes this choice, it means that he will most likely have to wave goodbye to everything he has worked hard for most of his life... …Not everyone can make this decision.

Fortunately, old Schubert was timid enough. Although he was greedy for money, he was more afraid of death. On this point, he and the giant-eared goblins had something in common.

"But here we are, and there's no one at all."

Old Schubert stamped his feet vigorously. This "Earring Trail" was already very inconspicuous, and it was even more frighteningly deserted at this time. Coupled with the psychological shadow caused by the night commotion in the past two days, He almost felt that robbers were going to jump out of the darkness around him at any time.

Sally felt equally uneasy. Her courage and courage were limited. She was able to successfully convince her uncle only because a series of events in the city in the past two days had shaken his idea of ​​guarding the beer hall. As for what she had received She did not dare to reveal the letter and the familiar handwriting in the letter to Schubert. Although the girl was young, she had also read many novels and stories related to adventure and secret agents. In these stories, those characters Once their whereabouts are revealed, they will often be killed.

The affairs of Ernst's old house were already full of strangeness, and the appearance of that letter ignited the fire of hope in Sally's heart. She did not want to bring new trouble to her friend because of her omission.

"Maybe we should wait a little longer..."

Sally looked at the deserted path, also hesitant, but at this moment, a small sound came from the side. She turned her head, only to see green eyes lighting up in the darkness not far away - that It was a mouse, an obviously different mouse.

"For God's sake, why does it have three tails!"

Old Schubert swallowed. He reached out and pulled his niece, trying to get her to hide behind him. Any magical creature was dangerous, and there was absolutely nothing wrong with staying away from them.

However, what the two did not expect was that this weird big rat did not attack them. Instead, it strangely raised its three long tails and swung them twice in succession in the air. It looked like it was attacking them. "Walking" generally.

After that, it ran a certain distance, stopped and waited for the two of them quietly.

"It's calling us over!"

Sally's eyes shone, but old Schubert flinched a little. Being led away by such a weird creature felt a little wrong no matter how he thought about it.

However, at this moment, there were not many choices left for them. After all, the two of them followed them from a distance, so under the leadership of this strange mouse, they successfully walked out of the other end of the trail and returned. We arrived on a relatively spacious road.

Sally and Schubert breathed a sigh of relief, and then bravely followed the mouse. Finally, they came to a huge mansion.

The door was open, and a figure that was somewhat familiar to the two of them was waiting quietly in the courtyard behind the door.

Sally stood outside the gate, she was a little dazed, and she couldn't believe her eyes.

And the three-tailed mouse who was responsible for leading the way was now using his paws to pick at the young man's trouser legs, as if he was asking for credit.

Shuge slightly raised the magic lantern in his hand and showed a smile: "Miss Sally, Mr. Schubert, please don't stand outside anymore...it's not safe yet."

When the two people, who were still in a daze, entered the courtyard, Shuge closed the door, and the protective ritual took effect again, isolating the inner and outer world.

"You... Mr. Shuge, are you really not dead?"

Schubert unknowingly changed his name and attitude towards Shuge. The temperament of the other person at this time made Schubert dare not call and treat him as he used to.

Shuge smiled and nodded to Schubert. He turned around and saw that Sally was still in a sluggish state between excitement and confusion. So he sighed and reached out to take Sally's hand. Luggage: "It's a long story. I'll explain it slowly after entering the house."

Perhaps it was the "resurrection from the dead" that brought enough impact, or perhaps it was the natural deterrence of the magical power and the identity of the caster. Xiuge did not spend too much words and energy to let the two people in House No. 37 A new visitor believed the fact that Salem City was currently facing danger, and the changeling bugs active in the mansion added more credibility to Shuge's words.

After listening to Shuge's narration, Sally asked in a low voice: "So there is another mage here? Or a lake-level magic consultant?"

"Yes, a real magician... She is working hard to find a way for us to pass the city gate sealing ceremony. According to her calculations, it will be completed tomorrow morning at the latest."

Schubert looked a little worried, but the impact of the mages' extraordinary status and power was deep-rooted. Since a magic consultant had already said this, he naturally could no longer question it.

After getting through the initial panic and tension, Sally has regained her vitality. This lively and simple girl does not have too complicated thoughts and ideas. She follows her own intuition and instinct, trusting comprehensively and She completely gave it to the young man in front of her who already carried her goodwill and love. She did not ask in detail what happened these days, nor did she ask why Xiuge had magic power and became a spell caster. Instead, she chatted Current changes and conditions in Salem City.

Unknowingly, the two started chatting about Putlin.

There is no figure of Putlin here, which already explains a lot of things.

"You...will you blame him?"

"What's there to blame him for?"

Xiuge shook his head: "It's just that he made his own choice. He has complained to us about those things more than once in the past... What's more, many of these situations exist objectively. You must have also experienced it these days. See? There are many, many people with similar ideas in Salem City. Even if there is no Putlin, there must be someone to replace him."

Sally glanced at Shuge carefully, and then said: "Actually, on the day the old house burned down, Putlin came to the beer hall. He was very sad and thought... that it was your status as a member of the Ernst family that caused this. everything."

Hearing this, Xiuge's expression froze slightly. He gently put down the water glass and sighed in the nearly dark living room: "This time, maybe he was right."

Shuge doesn't have much favorable impression of the Ernst family now.

Just like most families that have been established in the world for a long time, the Ernst family is a very pure pursuit of interests. They regard the development and survival of the family as everything, and all members within the scope of the family's power should voluntarily become the continuation of the family. Fuel for Ernst's glorious flame...

If anyone is unwilling, then others will naturally take action and stuff the unsatisfactory firewood into the fires and furnaces.

"Even if I really want to contribute something, it will definitely not be for the Ernst family."

Xiuge said to himself silently in his heart.

In this way, time passed little by little amid the anxious waiting and the quiet conversations between Shuge and Sally.

Finally, when the daylight had dimmed, Xiuge suddenly felt a wave of magic power sweeping from the top of his head while he was half asleep and half awake, followed by a crisp ringing sound!

Shuge woke up immediately. He jumped up from the sofa in the living room and ran quickly towards the second floor.

The loud vibrating sound continued to echo in the corridor on the second floor. The sound seemed to be full of vitality, beating in every corner of the closed environment. Under his influence, Xiuge even felt that the magic power in his body was gone. became active.

"Bang!"

The door that had been closed opened, and then, a young female mage with a pale face, dark eyes, and messy hair walked out. In her fingers, she was holding a magic crystal, which was constantly emitting With the bright light, Shuge saw that the iris emblem symbolizing the Kingdom of Delan was clearly engraved on the surface of the crystal.

At this moment, Wei Lin was obviously in a state of extreme exhaustion. After walking out of the room, she leaned against the wall and took two deep breaths, but then a rather attractive smile appeared on her face, a thick smile. The sense of accomplishment and satisfaction showed from the upturned corners of her mouth.

Seeing her like this, Xiuge finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you for your hard work, Miss Weilin... I wonder what the outcome will be now?"

"Perfect."

She said in a very confident tone: "It took me a lot of time to transplant the emblem onto a complete magic crystal. To be honest, it was a bit risky, but fortunately it was successful."

At this time, Xiuge noticed that Wei Lin's palm holding the magic crystal was covered with many wounds, some of which were still bleeding. Obviously, the situation was not as easy as she showed, at least. It definitely shouldn’t just be “somewhat adventurous”.

Xiuge respected all those who had put in their hard work and achieved results. Seeing that Wei Lin looked like she might faint at any moment, he quickly fetched a teacup and a teapot - filled with water from the Luowei Plateau. Scented tea, this kind of scented tea is often paired with a lot of dried fruits and even sugar cubes. Although the taste is a bit sweet, it is very suitable for soothing the physical and mental state and replenishing physical strength.

Wei Lin took the tea cup from Xiuge's hand as expected. After taking a small sip, her eyebrows widened. At this time, footsteps came from the direction of the stairs, and the two of them turned their heads. Look, I saw Sally carefully sticking her head out from the stairs.

Wei Lin smiled kindly at the girl she had met once before, and then she asked: "It seems that everyone is here already?"

"Yes, the route has been chosen and can be set off at any time."

Wei Lin nodded. She picked up the tea cup and took another sip. Then she looked at the magic clock hanging on the wall: "It's already five o'clock? Okay... give me three more hours, no, two An hour is enough...I need to quickly restore some magic power and status, otherwise it is easy to make mistakes when operating the magic emblem."

Xiuge nodded: "I will pay close attention to the situation outside. If there are no accidents, we will set off before eight o'clock."

…

The early morning light passed through the window and shone on the wooden floor.

The temperature on the Rowe Plateau has begun to drop rapidly. Just the night that just passed, the Walter King City of Bolden ushered in the first snowfall in the year 2699 of the Cathar calendar. Although its scale was limited, it was also The goddess of winter and the god of cold wind join hands again to start a long journey.

A wrinkled hand pushed open the glass door of the study balcony, and the light in the room immediately became transparent. In the cold and gentle wind, "Three-clawed Falcon" Zeke Ernst arrived On the balcony.

A huge raven seemed to have been waiting for this moment for a long time. It flapped its wings impatiently and landed, standing firmly on the armrest of Old Zeke's wheelchair.

The old man chuckled twice, then stretched out his fingers and slowly slid over the raven's head and back. Its feathers were very beautiful and neat, and even slightly reflective.

However, while the raven was busy enjoying the grooming services provided by humans, a magic power hidden in its body suddenly began to work, and the raven's gray eyes immediately changed. Its pupils were filled with golden color, and even more It reveals some emotional color that is unique to humans.

The old man stopped and looked at the raven quietly. After a moment, the raven opened its mouth and what came out was the voice of a human woman.

"Teacher, you woke up very early today."

"It's snowing, so I can't sleep well."

Zeke chuckled. He pulled up the blanket on his body and looked at the boundary formed by the earth, mountains and sky: "Today is an important day. If I get up too late, I will be beaten by you young people." People laugh at it, right?”

The voice responded softly: "No one will laugh at you."

"Wrong...just because they don't dare, it doesn't mean they don't have that idea."

Zeke Ernst kept smiling. He saw a majestic and huge shadow passing by in the distant sky. It was a giant plateau eagle regarded as a totem by the Votel people.

Rumor has it that when the world is about to usher in new changes and turbulence, this terrifying predator will also become extremely excited...

"Kid, it's time for you to get excited."

he murmured.
