Chapter 274: Endgame (7) Evelyn’s Secret

"The God of True Name (
On the recliner in the room, there was an old lady. She closed her eyes and fell into a false sleep. She was covered with a quilt and curled up into the chair. She looked thinner than usual.
Ms. Garcia's original size was not tall, but the majesty of being a wizard leader in the past makes people unconsciously ignore this, because no one will try to judge a legendary wizard based on appearance.
But now she is like an ordinary old woman.
The aura of no anger and prestige disappeared, wrinkles on the old face, deep-sunken eye sockets, and a deep sense of exhaustion in his expression, which makes people feel that even the strong man at the apex of humanity is still unable to Resist the erosion of time and wind.
She has been alive for a long time. A few hundred years old, up to a thousand years old, and can live a long time later, but the imprints that time passes on people are hard to erase after all.
Of course, in Richard's opinion, the reason why the other party appears so weak is probably mainly because of mental setbacks and blows.
As for why she behaves so old, it is due to her character. It is not difficult for a legendary wizard to make some changes to his body. It is not uncommon to keep young in appearance, and it is not uncommon for a guy who has lived over a thousand years to seduce those young boys and girls.
But Ms. Garcia is different. Even if there is a means to replace the body like a preacher, it is difficult to imagine that she would do it.
Most people will experience decline in physical function due to aging, which will not happen to powerful extraordinary people; on the contrary, the more able to allow themselves to appear old, the more terrifying the power they possess.
Because only the decline of power is unacceptable to any wizard.
The two didn't bother. Until the voice of others came outside the door.
"The sage potion has been delivered."
Ms. Garcia opened her eyes, the light in her pupils was still sharp and terrifying.
"Come here."
The old lady said hoarsely.
A wooden box was delivered to her. After Ms. Garcia opened, the room was suddenly covered with a hazy light.
"I'll do a favor."
Mr. Evelyn smiled, raised a hand, and stretched a red thread from the nail to reach the old lady.
Ms. Garcia glanced at him, and did not refuse.
...
After the light dissipated, the old lady let out a sigh of relief.
"Okay, let's stop here." He said.
"The rest is enough with my own strength. Within ten days, I should be able to make up for it."
She straightened up from the recliner, her mental state seemed much better than before.
"Many thanks."
Ms. Garcia bowed deeply to the two younger generations.
Neither Richard nor Evelyn backed away, and accepted it calmly.
"I would like to ask you two about their intentions."
Although he expressed his gratitude, the old man's attitude remained calm, making people unable to see his thoughts.
"Madam, you should be able to guess it with your wisdom."
Said Mr. Evelyn.
"The civil war is over. In order to return the magic tower to the past, the only remaining question now is...who can reach the top."
After the old lady was silent for a while, she spoke slowly.
"I thought you didn't care about the magic tower."
Mr. Evelyn laughed.
"It is true. But my friend is very caring."
"That's it, you two have decided to join forces."
Ms. Garcia sighed.
"The two came together, are you going to force me to make a decision?"
"No, no, no, I just want to ask the most honorable lady on this tower to be a witness for us."
"What if I want the situation to remain the same?"
"You know, the past rules are not suitable for the new era that Magic Tower is about to usher in, especially after Mr. Green leaves."
The old lady tapped her fingers on the armrest of the recliner. At the end, she replied calmly:
"Rasputin's men saved my life, and you took the initiative to take out the sage potion to help me regain my strength. If I refuse you again, it will be too unreasonable... well, I will support the second Bit."
"well."
Richard implements the character design of cherishing words like gold, and nods slightly.
"But this agreement is only in this situation, if anyone wants to come back..."
"For example?"
"For example, Marion Green—I mean, the real Marion Green."
The old lady didn't play the muzzle, she directly told her real thoughts.
"Mr. Green did not die so easily."
Mr. Evelyn said with emotion.
"If he comes back and needs the leadership of the magic tower, I will choose not to help. Of course, I will find another way to repay the two. How about that?"
"It's reasonable."
Richard said.
"Then, the deal is concluded."

Once the wizard leaders reach a consensus, cooperation between school members is no longer a problem.
When it comes to huge practical interests, it needs to consider the game from many sides, but it is no longer their business, but the work of their subordinates.
"How do you feel now?"
After leaving the tree house, Mr. Evelyn couldn't wait to hear the thoughts of "Rasputin".
"I agree to your terms."
Richard didn't say anything, and while nodding to express his gratitude, he directly agreed to his previous request.
If he were the only one to go, the matter would never go so smoothly. According to Ms. Garcia's mind, the old lady would probably use other methods to repay the kindness, instead of becoming his companion.
He even felt that if there were no two people going there at the same time, Ms. Garcia had already planned to leave the magic tower and go to find Mr. Green's whereabouts.
Mr. Evelyn froze for a moment.
"Is there another person? As I said, our trading terms are to make you the leader of Steppenwolves..."
"Longman Hall is not an easily persuaded object. If we want to resolve it through negotiation~EbookFREE.me~ we may need Ms. Garcia's help."
Richard answered.
"I can see your sincerity, so be it."
The blond young man exhaled a long sigh and smiled.
"...Thank you very much."
"So, what are you telling me?"
"Before this, I had a grievance."
Mr. Evelyn snapped his fingers.
"Can you give me someone from your school?"
"Who?"
Richard suddenly became alert.
If this guy dared to say "Villette", no matter how much he helped before, he would definitely turn his face right now.
However, he clearly misunderstood.
"is her."
As if receiving some kind of signal from the snapping of her fingers, a black-robed woman fell from the sky and took the initiative to bow to herself after landing.
"It's you."
Richard squinted his eyes.
The visitor is the master of the Rasputin school and a member of the inverse cross, Alice Leslie. but……
She looks a little different.
Although she still salutes herself as she did in the past, the attitude of the witch is different from the usual: the kind of respect and fear that almost overflowed, wishing to keep the humble attitude of kneeling on the ground forever, disappeared at this moment.
She looked at her with cold eyes, as if she had become another person.
"this is……"
"Alice is now free from the shackles of the reverse cross."
As if sensing Richard's doubts, Mr. Evelyn explained with a smile.
"And my goal is to save them like helping her."
"……'they'?"
"The elves who have the same past as this lady, controlled by an apostle of the reverse cross."
