The night of Wimpar College, if you look from the direction of the town, it is like a huge shadow in the dark, covering the remote village from the hillside of the cliff. The icy silver hook slowly rose from the side of the mountain and hung above the shadowy dome.
Even for the people in this small town, Wimpar College is still a mysterious and somewhat fearful place. Who knows what the wizards are doing and planning? It's just that every night when you can see the moon, the phrase "The wizard will come to catch you if you don't sleep anymore" can make the naughtiest children go to bed.
However, not everyone has the intention to appreciate this "strange" night view.
The evening wind blew through, and under the dim fire outside the tavern door, a figure hiding under the corner of the wall shrunk his neck, carefully pouring a little insight from the bottle in his hand and smearing it on the wall.
Soon, the transparent liquid gradually dried up, and a gray-blue spot suddenly appeared on the muddy wall, emitting a strange light. The face hiding in the shadow showed a surprised expression.
He started rummaging around, carefully groping for about a quarter of an hour. Finally found a hidden letterhead among the bricks in the corner.
He has been waiting for this for a long time-since the accident in Gumu Town, he has never met any guy who came to meet him. Out of prudence, I did not take the initiative to contact the outside, but just waited patiently.
Can't wait to open the letterhead, he can recognize the handwriting on it at a glance, the guy who came to meet him last time-he was a little hesitant, he also knows about Gumu Town, is this guy already in trouble? ?
Or is it just a fake death, a means to avoid the Wimpal Wizard?
Whether it was or not, he did not intend to continue to wait. In case if he missed a big event because he was too timid, the adult would never let himself go!
Hesitated for a long time, he still shivered away from the shadow of hiding, and went to the address stated on the letterhead-just in a ruined unpopulated residence near the village and town, this kind of broken house is almost everywhere in the countryside.
Hid outside and knocked on the door, but there was little movement inside. Did you come too early? He guessed, but still got the courage to push the door and lean in.
"Someone, don't you, don't you ------ !!!!!!"
Before he walked into the house, the figure that appeared suddenly grabbed his throat from behind and dragged into the room, pressing the ground to lock his hands with shackles. Before he could open his mouth to call for help, the cold short knife had reached his mouth.
"I suggest you don't do this useless work, sir." Loren, who was crouching in front of the other party, reminded: "There is no one around here, you just shouting loudly is useless."
The man nodded quickly.
"Very good, let's make some rules of the game." Smiling Loren, holding the knife tip against the other person's skin little by little, swam from lips to throat: "The rule of the game is, if you dare Speak a spell, or try to cast the spell in any way, and I will pierce your neck and tear off the entire chin! "
The cold blade touched his throat, making him so nervous that he couldn't even speak a word.
"I guess you may still be wondering what is going on, so let me explain it to you-the letter was forged by me, the writing was learned from the wizard's spell book, and of course he was also taken by me Killed. Unfortunately I found that he had been here, so I set a trap. "
"In fairness, I didn't expect anyone to be hooked. But I guess there should be contacts in this village and town, so ... this gentleman, you can really point your back."
"Are you from Wimpar College ?!"
"The reaction is quite fast, but it is useless." Loren replied very regretfully: "How many people are there in your" organization "?"
Didn't answer but turned his face away.
"Why are you guys like this, non-violent and non-cooperative?" Loren shook his head regretfully, as if helpless: "Well, I'm not a rude guy, so let's change the question-- Apart from you, are there any other people in the village? "
"Don't count on it, the minions of the academy!" With the blade of the knot on his throat, his voice shivered: "That broken academy will soon be finished, and all of you will be hanged!"
"You are consuming my patience." Loren's voice became colder and colder: "Last chance, what is the name of your leader?"
"Don't dream, if I tell you, he will definitely kill me, then ..."
"boom--!"
Before he finished speaking, suddenly Loren got up and kicked on his face. The fragile nose bridge and boots came in an "intimate contact", and he broke two incisors.
"Wait, me ah-!!!!!!"
Loren did not give him a second chance to speak, and kicked his face against the wall again. Time and time again, the soles of the feet are getting harder and harder, and the brain and the wall make a crisp collision again and again. The eyes of the man even begin to bleed, and Loren doesn't mean to stop.
"Wait, I said, I said!"
"Sorry, I'm not interested in knowing it anymore." Loren coldly pressed his face against the wall again, leaving a deep purple shoemark on the muddy cheeks: "I'm facing you now How long can I persist and be more interested. "
One, two, three ... "Patient" Loren counted the teeth that came out of the other person's mouth, and even those eyes seemed to fall out of the face, although the entire face was already distorted It doesn't look like this ... anyway, is he still alive?
"His name is Karan, Karan cough cough cough ...!"
The mouth full of blood, the dizzy man shouted: "Please stop, please stop!"
"I said that, I'm not interested."
"Then what do you want to know, I said, I said cough cough cough ...!"
"Your purpose-why kill Father Anthony, why come to Wimpar College, and the church." Loren pulled out his short knife: "Tell me, I will give you a happy heart."
"It was arranged by Karan, Lord Karan. He called us in and said he could make us a way to live." He coughed continuously, and the man gasped for breath: "The wizard is too difficult to mix here and I don't want to join you. College ~ EbookFREE.me ~ can only live like a mouse, so everyone agreed! "
"All nonsense." Loren interrupted the other party: "My patience is almost exhausted."
"Sixteen, we have almost sixteen people!" He quickly said: "But only four of them are real wizards, and I am just an apprentice. Cough cough cough ..."
"Killing Father Anthony meant Master Karan, and I don't know why." Spitting out the blood in his mouth, he went on: "As for why I wanted to go to Wimpar because something was hiding here."
"what?"
"I don't know." The man coughed: "I really don't know, I didn't lie to you-the guy in Karan never told others what he wanted to do, but that thing must be very important to him, definitely yes! "
Is there any secret hidden in the college? This answer was somewhat beyond Loren's expectations, but he didn't expect it to be for this reason ...
"You cough cough ... promised me." The dying man stared at Loren with his eyeballs protruding from his eyes: "Give me pleasure!"
Of course Loren will not object, this person has no use value for himself. Crouching down, he gently wiped his neck with a short knife in his hand, and the thick blood gurgled, and he would be flat for a while.
Clean up the corpse and the scene cleanly. Loren stood outside the door as if nothing had happened. Now that you know the purpose of the other party, the next step is ...
Just about to leave, a sudden pain came from his right wrist, as if he wanted to melt his skin. Loren gritted his teeth and immediately tore off the bandage around his right wrist—the snake-shaped rune that hadn't been moving, and glowing red as if burning.
Asriel!
