Upon hearing the voice, Hao Ren turned and looked to the direction and found that it was Becky whom he had met once.
The mercenary girl is coming out of the other door of the garrison, holding a few pieces of paper that seemed like she had just finished some sort of formalities. She immediately ran to Hao Ren excitedly when she saw him.
Hey! I thought I was wrong, why are you still here? You just left without saying goodbye a few days ago, I haven’t seen such a bad-tempered man. Do you really have to run away because of a music box?
Before Hao Ren could speak, the freckled soldier asked curiously,
Miss Becky, do you know them?
Errr, they’re all with him? How come there are so many people…
Becky looked at those of them beside Hao Ren with amazement.
I just knew this guy, he was a magician. That time he flew to the prairie when doing teleportation experiment. He hit his brain when he fell from the sky. He still owes me a music box by the way…
Can you not mention my broken brain!
Hao Ren was almost subdued by this lady’s steel-like stubbornness.
My brain is totally fine! Also, I brought you a music box this time…
When the freckled soldier saw that they really knew each other, he felt relieved. He also did not willing to lead the strange foreign wizards to do registration, because it was going to take a lot of procedures and he had to write a report. Now he was explaining the situation to Becky,
Well, it looks like your wizard friend didn’t take the lesson, and it’s getting worse. They all came here during the accident of teleportation. They suddenly appeared at the busiest intersection and gave me and Joseph a fright. Right now I’m going to take them to register themselves. Miss Becky, can you be their guarantor? Just prove that you know one of them, so they don’t have to go through the registration procedure of wandering wizards.
Hao Ren thought that Becky, who only met him once, would refuse it. He did not expect her to nod without hesitation.
Sure, I’m free anyway.
Errr, thank you.
Hao Ren did not know what did the guarantor and wandering wizard procedure mean, but he still appreciated her help. After all, she did not have to help them.
Becky just waved her hand and said,
No problem, you said you brought me a music box? I’m waiting for your music box, this time you can’t teleport and runaway again, especially doing it in the street. You don’t know how dangerous it is.
All of them followed the freckled soldier and entered the garrison. When Vivian saw Becky was walking ahead of them and did not notice them, she leaned to Hao Ren and whispered,
Music box? Running away? Hit your head? The incident you encountered last time was quite colorful.
Vivian said with an amused banter in her tone.
Last time when Hao Ren came back from the Plane of Dreams, he had already told Vivian the experience inside it roughly. He also mentioned Becky the mercenary girl. However, he did not go into detailed, especially that shameful scene of ‘falling down from the sky’. Of course Vivian was a little curious about it now.
Let’s don’t talk about it,
Hao Ren sighed.
Especially that incident. This sister witnessed the moment when I fell down from the sky, and she remembered it until now. I reckon she already forgot my name.
While they were talking, they entered the copy room. This was a small room filled with bookshelves, wooden cases and files. The wall had mottled and the wooden floor was creaking, only the bright sunlight that shone through the high glass windows into the room made the room looked lively. The unique wooden furniture reminded them of the small study room in the old European manor in the movie. A middle-aged soldier who looked somewhat bookish sat behind the large wooden table. When they went in, the soldier was concentrating on reading something that looked like a newspaper. The freckled soldier called the name of the person in charge,
Mr. Wilton, I brought some people to register.
The middle-aged soldier, known as Wilton, straightened up and looked at the freckled soldier with dignity.
Call me Sir Wilton, Ryan. This is the military department, and you and I are soldiers.
So the freckled soldier was called Ryan. It was easy to remember.
Ryan the young soldier explained the situation of these foreign wizards who ‘carried out dangerous experiment in downtown and obstructed traffic due to the accident’, and then pointed to Becky and said,
Miss Becky is a guarantor, so they don’t have to go through the registration procedure of the wandering wizards, right?
Yes.
The middle-aged officer got up and looked for something on the file rack beside him. Hao Ren found that there seemed to be something wrong with the officer’s leg and he could not walk well. The middle-aged officer finally found a register, opened it and put on the table. Becky went up to write her name swiftly, and then turned to call Hao Ren,
The one who fell down from the sky, come and sign it!
…This lady had really forgotten Hao Ren’s name.
Vivian came forward to look at the registration form and found something immediately.
The form uses another type of text, not the Letta rune that was previously thought to be used as a daily word in this world.
Hao Ren also found this soon. Both of them saw the doubt in each other’s eyes: Blessing words were written on the buildings here with Letta runes, but this text is not used on daily basis? What’s the use of Letta runes here then?
It is not a problem to master the words of another world under the aid of the translation system. Perhaps there are other imperial staff already registered in the character library here when they performed their task in the Plane of Dreams. Hao Ren and the rest of them can read the registration form very easily, but had some difficulty when writing it. They spelled their names awkwardly by transliteration with that zigzag symbol, then skipped most of the sections under the guidance of Becky, and finally they paused in the column ‘Registration of foreign wizard faction and the origin’.
What is the registration of faction?
Are you a faction of steeple or college?
Becky is also surprised that a wizard does not know which faction he belongs to.
Don’t you have a mentor, are you all self-taught?
Errr… We are in a very remote place. There are some of the hidden priories in the Northern Empire.
Hao Ren remembered that Becky knew little of the other side of the prairie, coupled with some of his own speculation of this world, he was thinking of the reason slowly.
What is the difference between the faction of steeple and the college?
The Priory? Then it’s belong to the steeple,
Becky nodded.
I’ve heard of the priory, but I didn’t expect that you guys would be so out of touch to this extent. I guess you guys don’t even join Wizard Association, right? I thought you belong to college faction according to the way you dress.
What exactly do the two factions mean?
Hao Ren thought that Becky did not suspect them, so he simply asked for more details like a rookie.
The steeple faction is the old faction that has been developed strictly in accordance with the rules of the wizards that have been handed down since ancient times, because the base of the veteran wizard is the Wizard Tower that had hundreds of years of history, and most of their activities are in the Wizard Tower, so they are called steeple faction. The college faction was the new faction of the last few decades, spring up from the Hognar Empire at northern side. It was called the college faction because the new students are educated in college. Now there are more and more college wizards.
Hao Ren and the rest of them nodded, and then decisively wrote down the steeple faction. This faction sounds conservative, and there is the existence of hidden types, which is very suitable to explain themselves in the unfamiliar situation. As for why Lily, such a happy weirdo will appear in the minaret faction such a conservative faction…
Hao Ren thought, and decided if someone asked about her, he would say that Lily ate the wrong pill during the experiment. Anyway, no one will go into, and Lily’s opinion can be ignored.
While they were filling out the forms, Wilton and Ryan was chatting. Ryan pointed to the newspaper that Wilton just read, asked,
A group of search teams are missing at The Beinz Blood Lake again?
Yes, this is the fourth batch of people who have disappeared in the last two months, the church was a little unable to keep calm.
Wilton shook his head and move his lame leg to another leg laboriously.
Some said that the bottom of the The Beinz Blood Lake lead to The Otherworld, and the search teams have been sucked away. The church is now refuting the rumor. Tsk, people nowadays really dare to say whatever they want to. The The Beinz Blood Lake is the holy land created personally by the Goddess. That group of storyteller picked the wrong place to make up their story.
Hao Ren is filling in the form, he stopped writing when he heard this.
It seems that it is a smart decision to follow the guy to the garrison. Lucky for him to get such important news—The Beinz Blood Lake lead to The Otherworld?
