The current scene is very delicate. This should have been a tense situation. Kailas was already prepared for the worst when he was summoned by this old man.

However, the sudden appearance of Cheese and the conversation between the old man and Cheese suddenly changed the tense atmosphere. When the topic ended, a strange silence fell between the three of them. Cheese quickly recovered from the newly learned news.

Come over and look at each other with Kailas.

"I have benefited a lot from talking with you, but I think you are also tired. We will bother you another day, so we will go back today." Gray robe said, leading Kailas towards the door, as if he was about to leave.

appearance.

Unfortunately, he was not facing someone who was easy to fool. The old man in the pool put away his reminiscence expression and put on another look.

"Don't leave in a hurry. It's true that I have a relationship with Clark. But you are not him. Even if you are, I am no longer the person I was then. I was still very young at that time, and now, I have to

Think about when you will say goodbye to this city. You are not lucky."

The implication of this sentence is that if Cheese and the others had arrived here a few years ago, perhaps the old man would have really put down his plan and let them leave because of his old relationship with the Lord of the Gray Tower.

However, there are not so many ifs in this world. Even if the cheese received an invitation a few years ago, he would not come all the way here just to watch the ceremony. So this sentence did not sound too big in the ears of gray robe.

The meaning is that it just shows that the other party does not want the meeting to end like this.

"We have two people here. I wonder who you said is unlucky?"

Since he couldn't leave, Cheese didn't waste his energy trying to open the door. This room was filled with a vague magical atmosphere. With the pool of water as the center, the magic in the whole room was integrated. He didn't think that at this level of completion,

You can come and go freely within the magic area, so it is better to solve the problem head-on at the moment.

"Two people? Well, okay, let's just think of them as two. But no matter who it is that comes to me at this time, it is very unlucky." According to the words, it is time to take action next, but

No matter whether they were in the water or standing on the ground, the two parties and three people showed no obvious hostility. Cheese even dispersed the magic light in his eyes, far from looking like he was going to fight with others.

.

"Well, you did the right thing. People who can detect fear in fear are rare brave men. Those who can force themselves to take off their defenses in this situation are either calm or arrogant. I hope you are the former, because the latter is

You can’t learn magic well.” The old man said calmly, seeming to be quite satisfied with Cheese’s performance.

Of course he knew the reason why Gray Robe put down his guard, that is because Cheese knew very well that he could not win with magic here.

"I think I roughly understand. When I heard about the system of the City of Ten Thousand Laws before, I actually had some vague doubts. Can a small council formed around representatives of the so-called six university factions really make this city run?

It is obviously possible for such a system to allow Wanfa to survive, but Wanfa is not a

In the conventional sense, a city's existence is based on development. Without new development, the foundation of the city will be shaken. Although the parliamentary system is stable enough, it lacks efficiency and cannot reach consensus on some larger issues.

, and they will also restrain each other. This is contrary to the concept of the City of Ten Thousand Laws."

The old man nodded slightly, the figure of cheese reflected in his dark pupils, "Keep talking."

"When I saw you, I understood that the City of Ten Thousand Laws is not actually a six-person parliamentary system. In other words, the six-person parliament is not the ultimate power of this city. What they can govern are also some of the city's problems.

It's like an advanced version of the school meeting, and the members who participate at the same time are relatively fixed. Behind them, there are people who can really mobilize the power of the city and even influence the general direction of research. That person, or to be conservative, among those people

, it should be you."

This is not surprising. Just like Riverrun's high degree of autonomy on the surface, it is actually the mediation and counterbalance of several forces. It is normal for Wanfa to have such a trader.

"You're right. When I was your age, I didn't know so much about things other than my own research. You are very strange. As a mage, you don't seem to be so pure, but this matter

Whether it is good or bad cannot be determined yet. As for me, your inference is correct. I do have greater influence than the so-called representatives of the school. There are also a few old guys similar to me in this city. We all watch

With the rise of this city.”

The old man swallowed his saliva and continued,

"Have you seen my head? This is not a mutation or disease, this is hereditary. In the place where I was born, the royal family practiced incest to ensure the purity of the bloodline, so almost everyone in my family has this head.

Looks like. For the rulers, this is proof that we have the blood of gods. But for me

For me, it is just a symbol that reminds me where I come from, just like the pyramids outside. They also come from my hometown. Those tombs almost accompanied me when I grew up. They were my first teachers and told me about the world.

The appearance, the relationship between life and death, of course later I realized that it was not accurate."

"So now, have you got the accurate answer?" Cheese asked. This was not a provocation, he asked sincerely.

"No, I gave up. I once gave up a lot of things to answer this question, including status, wealth, relatives, and love. I went far away from home and devoted myself to knowledge. I wanted to build a world that only belongs to knowledge.

city. But in the process, I had to give up updating

There are so many things, and now, I have even given up on the problems I was looking for at the beginning. I no longer demand the mystery of life and death, because no matter what it is, I will eventually know it. Now, I only want to solve more practical problems,

Really break through those difficulties. That’s why you are standing here.”

"We have become an obstacle for you to solve the problem?"

"Don't worry, it won't be anymore soon. I'm sorry that it's a sad coincidence that you are here, but I have to eliminate you along with that naughty cat. Because, in theory, I am already dead.

So those who can talk to the dead can only be dead people."

After the old man finished speaking, he lightly tapped the water surface with his finger. In an instant, the magic power was transmitted to the mural on the wall of the room in a way that was difficult for the mage to detect clearly.
