Vol 2 Chapter 107: Visitors (Part 1)

Freswick Manor-leaving from the west gate of Ebden, it takes about half a day to arrive. Unlike the slightly crowded, dirty, and even ruined south of the city, the surrounding environment is similar to many villages in Lotel, shaded by trees, and quietly flowing rivers and streams.
It is said that there are many ancestral homes and manors of the rich people here. Although it is one of the best cities in the entire empire, whether it is living conditions or all kinds of goods in Ebden, it is not a city that everyone is keen on. Living.
This is especially true for wizards who are keen on research and have extremely lack of social activities-Robert Freswalk, who Loren is about to visit, is one of them.
A member of the "Freedom Council" of Ebden, one of the twelve veterans of the Nine-Man Star Witch Tower, the patriarch of the Freswick family ... Then, it is said that he was once the mentor of Dean Peter.
The master specializes in occultism and curse science. Dean Peter and Dalton mentor are also in a similar situation. Considering that he specializes in curse art, it can barely be regarded as Master Freswalk ... great-grandchildren.
Although I have felt emotion once, when I heard this, Loren could not help but sigh, the circle of the wizarding world is really small, even if you just go out of the door, you can meet this name and scare people. "Grandpa Zeng."
Although it is not a luxury manor, Loren still keeps the respect and humility as possible as possible, turning over and dismounting in front of the gate of the manor, and handing over the "invitation" to the servant outside the door.
After waiting patiently for two quarters, the notified servant finally turned back and led him into the main building of the manor, a place resembling a library tower.
Entering the main building, Loren found out that it was basically a small book-collecting tower-both the side of the stairs and the surrounding walls were all transformed into bookshelves, and there were no gaps filled with books of all sizes, even Thick parchment and ink smelled in the air.
Not only that, even just walking on the stairs, he could clearly feel the residual of the power of the void contained in the air. To this extent, the master may have conducted experiments on high-order magic spells here every day. .
It was a wise decision not to bring Asriel.
Under the leadership of the servant, the black-haired wizard came to the third floor of the door, which looked like the master's private room. Knocked on the door gently, the respectful servant nodded his bow and bowed: "Master Robert Freswalk, the guest is here."
No answer, just a few crisp knocks in the room, like the sound of a knocking pipe. The servant who opened the door immediately opened the door and gestured to Loren: "You can go in."
What is this, some kind of special signal?
After glancing at the servant, Loren glanced into the door before moving his footsteps.
The room is not spacious, but it is a perfect occult laboratory—a corner full of books, a variety of bronze and silver props and equipment, a meditation ring platform, and ... absolutely quiet Silent wall.
For the mysterious wizards, there is probably nothing more important than quietness.
"Sincere greetings to you, under Ain Lan ..."
"Come on, I have time to listen to you lying here, it might as well read a few more books." Standing in front of Loren was a short and thin old man, and a fat wizard robe on him seemed quite ridiculous. , And the white hair with few strands on his head "emphasized".
Xie Ding, abrupt head, and a pair of energetic, but yellow eyes, plus a messy beard-this is the master of spells and mystics of the nine-man star wizard tower, Robert Fres Walker.
The old man was carrying a beautiful meerschaum pipe in his right hand. He was pumping up, and his yellow eyes were still looking up and down. Loren standing respectfully in front of him, as if looking at a certain work Condition.
"Students of Peter, I know who you are, so there is no need to talk nonsense, and I will be a few days old when I am my age." Master Robert Freswalk, who looked up, was full of breath: "So I Just be brief.
You want to pass the test after three days and get the qualification recognized by the Nine-Man Star Wizard Tower, and I am one of your three certifiers, but after three days I have a very troublesome research to carry out, so simply today Right! "
"Nowadays?!"
"Why, do you have an opinion?" The old man's expression was very unhappy--although since entering the door, Loren hadn't seen how he smiled.
"No, I'm just a little confused." Of course, Loren couldn't admit it, and asked with a smile: "The test does not require three wizards at the same time ..."
"Three, why use three?" Master Freswalk snorted: "I said you passed, you are qualified; if I said you failed, then it is useless to speak!"
This is a rather arrogant old man who is very authoritative in the nine-pointed star wizard tower and has some real power. Loren nodded slightly, confirming his guess at the beginning.
"I owed a great favor to the Corona family, considering that you were a student of Peter, and barely counted a quarter of the Ebden wizard, so I promised them to give you this opportunity-no matter what you plan to change after three days Tricks, you have to change it for me now. Would you like to give you a few minutes to prepare? "Freswalk glared at him," Tap, tap, "smoking a pipe.
Loren felt that he might finally understand what was going on.
This Freswalk master did not intend to let himself pass the test from the beginning, or hold some kind of mind that made himself difficult-this is also in line with the xenophobic characteristics of the wizards of Ebdon, and always despise the wizards from outside. of.
But in comparison, because of the relationship between Dean Peter, he has saved some "scores" for himself-in other words, it gave Freswalk the reason to let him pass, and it was barely regarded as Eboden. One person is like a distant cousin of a big family.
Of course, the most important thing is still the Corona family standing behind. The dark-haired wizard is really unclear. This family who has been showing himself to himself since he arrived in Ebden, what is he thinking about? ?
The better the show, the more fearful Loren was-the other side almost unabashedly showed their strength, and even could use human touch to ransom Freswalk, one of the twelve veterans of the Nine-Man Star Wizard's Tower.
Even more terrifying is that all the people who have come forward to help now are actually people who are related to themselves. Obviously the other party has made their identity and origin very clear.
What are they going to do?
"What are you still doing there? I have no time to spend with you!"
Master Freswalk, who noticed that the dark-haired wizard "God of God," was very dissatisfied, growing impatient, and the sound of the smoking pipe became louder and louder: "For Peter's good boy's sake, I Can give you five minutes! "
Peter's "good boy" ... Loren's right eye jumped. I'm afraid in this eye, he was at best a baby wizard.
After thinking for a moment, Loren quickly guessed each other's intentions, as well as the capital in his own hands. A minute later, the dark-haired wizard, who was a little overwhelmed at first, had a confident smile on the corner of his mouth:
"Master Freswalk, can you tell me what is the research that makes you careless?"
"Huh?" The old man looked at Loren with very distrustful eyes ~ EbookFREE.me ~ The eyes are full of sarcasm: "If I tell you, you would not say, just have a way to solve it?
Many of the apprentices I ’ve brought have also used this kind of cleverness, but I ’ll make it clear that I ca n’t tolerate cleverness here-if you ca n’t solve it, and ca n’t come up with any tricks that can prove your level, you have to get out ! "
"I have always been very confident in myself, Master Freswalk." Loren bowed humbly with a faint smile on his face: "Please also give me a chance."
"Don't blame me for not reminding you!" The old man squinted his eyes, turned his back and paced: "This is a conjecture proposed by an apprentice named Isaac Grantham. Although it is ridiculous, I find it particularly interesting ... … "
Hearing the name, the smile on Loren's face collapsed immediately.
