The darkness gradually retreated from consciousness, and an inexplicable throbbing made Edward's body tremble slightly.
The warm body temperature seemed to remain on the pillow next to him... as if there was nothing. When he stretched out his hand, the feeling of emptyness on the narrow bed made most of the men's sleepiness suddenly drive away.
When he was sober, he didn't need to open his eyes. He also saw all the scenery within dozens of feet of the surrounding area, and did not let go of any sound.
But disappointingly, the person in his thoughts did not appear in sight or hearing. He moved again as if he was unwilling to do so. He widened his eyes and stared at the empty bedside in front of him in a daze.
nothingness.
Everything is like a dream of nothingness, but it is so real... When the love is deep again and again, the woman's delicate body trembling in her arms like a small animal, the soft fragrance entangled between her lips and tongue, and finally the ferocious
The venting and the fatigue of the body entangled together are deeply immersed in his memory, making him confused and unconsciously indulged in it...
"call……"
There seemed to be a cool smell of the morning air in the breath, but a slightly cool green-red scent just rose in the sky, falling from the round window on the tower into the huge space, reflecting a little indifferent to the faint glint of magic props everywhere.
Edward groaned and slowly sat up from the bed.
The woman's figure was gone, and there was no trace of her once in the room. She was the only one who lay on the simple little bed, with several clothes neatly stacked beside her.
But maybe that's OK.
If he is here, how should he face it? Pretend that everything is normal? Or scold the creator of the trap? Or do he want to apologize and find a way to make the relationship stronger? When his thoughts gradually condensed, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and found that
I was really not ready. How to meet Yasari again under the current situation... I guess that woman is the same.
But when he raised his gaze, his brows frowned into a bump.
Something disappeared in the room.
The laboratory has been modified and refined into a magic array, furnaces and lamps are all available. The set of tools in the Floating City Laboratory have also been placed here, and it has long since disappeared into its empty and poor appearance.
Because of this, Edward did not notice it at the first time. Some of the things that were originally placed there disappeared...
A test prop belonging to Ashari.
"Damn!" Edward couldn't help but reach out and pressed his forehead.
There are very few places to go in the territory, and Edward doesn't think that the mage would choose to go somewhere here to play hide-and-seek. Although she did do such a thing, she didn't.
A strange age, but in this world, the kind of soap opera that guides people with brainlessness, has not been invented yet, and the woman probably cannot express her emotions with such boring actions.
After hesitating for a while, Edward began to prepare for the remote vision technique. Unfortunately, after an hourglass time, he was frustrated to find that this psychic energy was completely ineffective.
Or should it be said to be natural? After all, in terms of results, the remote vision technique is not much different from the similar effects in arcane... It is not surprising that it is blocked by protective spells, but the next problem is enough to make people feel adaptable
It is the absolute weakness of psychic energy, and Edward's energy level is far from high enough. Apart from this, he has no other means to find a trace of a person.
But even if there is, it may not be useful.
A high-level mage is not an ordinary person. It is actually a very unrealistic thing to find her. For a mage who has mastered teleportation techniques, it is no different from being close to you within a thousand miles. Come and go at will,
If you are obstructed, if you deliberately avoid a person's search, it will be almost the same even if it is not effortless.
But if she lets her hide like this, will she never meet again in her life?
After some thought, Edward sorted out his emotions and activated a psychic teleportation.
Teleportation, carriage, and then several dizzy teleportation. Edward was already standing in the Academy of Magic, on the more than 100th floor of the main tower of the Change Department. He calmed down and passed through a door in front of him.
At that moment, the light and images around were soaked in a hazy mist. In this awe-inspiring environment of magical lights, the unavoidable darkness was obviously a magic barrier, and it was a very powerful kind...
After crossing the darkness, he found himself entering a terrible hall.
Shown before my eyes, the incredible wonder made Edward almost think that he had experienced another time travel.
Well, it is better to say that it is a cylindrical cave rather than a hall here... But countless metal components are densely spread throughout every corner of the hall, and an arc flashes from time to time.
The components, magic discs, and some insects, or animals that look like they develop deformed due to radiation, flying or climbing, coming and going, up and down, and another attack
The robes of various colors were flying like butterflies, and roughly estimated that they would have exceeded 300!
Edward narrowed his eyes.
Close to sight, the circular ground made of some unknown metal is etched with dense patterns and spells, and you can vaguely see that the familiar structure is not the sudden increase in the psychic cognition of magic, but just
The structure is roughly the same as the thing he had been betting on for a few days. However, as long as he is a discerning person, he can find out the fundamental difference in the background of the two.
This should be a replica of the central energy supply array of the floating city. It is just different from Edward's shabby place with hundreds of feet in radius. It has at least more than two football fields here!
"I just thought you, a little slut, should come, but I don't have time to pay attention to you now. You can go to Frodo, who is in charge of the warehouse. He also has the supporting magic circle drawings. OK, take this, hurry up
Click here to leave! Hey, it’s 336245 over there! Do you want to get it wrong, too, what you guys know about, that goblins know?"
Albert was standing in the center of the magic circle, on a mirror-like disc, but his voice seemed to roar in Edward's ear.
The great wizard's voice was obviously impatient, and he definitely did not have any leisure to discuss any issues with Edward: "What, Yasalie? Do you think I have time to care about her? Okay, you saw it too. Here I am here
There is a shortage of personnel. If you find her, let her return to the academy to report! As a high-level mage, I will deduct her future research materials and funds!"
The psychic sage sighed and had to reach out to take over a piece of crystal that was flying in the air, ending this brief visit.
It seems that in a while, I have no choice.
If Yasalie hadn't returned here, where would she go? Or, catching up with her is not a suitable strategy, and she should be given a while... or let both of them carefully during this period
Think about their own questions? But isn't this a little too relaxed? If she misunderstood what she meant, she would no longer contact herself... Ha, are you thinking too much? Even if she would give up on herself
.It is impossible to give up on the Mage Academy, right? It is still easy to build a good relationship.
But that seems too insincere.
Also, we need to cultivate a good relationship... but what kind of relationship should we pursue between ourselves and her? Now, the originally fragile master-apprentice relationship seems to have completely disappeared...
After slowly passing through several portals, he absent-mindedly thinking about the problems in his mind. He slowly came to a laboratory. He hesitated for a moment, but still stepped in.
Compared with the noisy scene just now, it was as quiet as another world, with only a few figures buried in the pile of books in front of them, but then one of them raised his head to Edward and revealed a pair of them.
Beautiful eyes full of surprises.
"Is it okay?"
"It's not bad. A few days ago, the great mentor suddenly issued an order to let all the senior mentors gather together for a study, so the matter here stopped like this, and without the mentor's permission, we are
You can't move things here casually, so you can only study the spells slowly and wait until your tutor comes back. But hehe, this is not bad."
Or because of the meeting again, Cecilia seemed to be very interested. While accompanying Edward toward the outside of the tower, she began to take the initiative to tell.
"Oh, by the way, can you tell me what changes have happened recently?"
"Yeah, congratulations."
Edward's eyes paused on her, and then he smiled: "His Excellency Cecilia."
With his current attainments, it is naturally possible to see that the connection between the magic power fluctuations surrounding His Royal Highness and the magic net has broken through the level of the third ring and is vaguely heading towards the fourth ring, although she has already been
With the ability to cast spells of the second and third rings, he can already be called a mage. But now, he may be considered a real thing.
The faint response made the girl's excited smile flash and flicker: "Ahh, yes, compared to you, this is really nothing!" She suddenly turned her gaze like anger:
"In three months, you can become a high-level mage who builds a magic tower alone. In your eyes, guys below the high-level mage are all fools, right? Not to mention Bob Lee, who is the second-place apprentice.
Nothing can compare to..."
"Well, is that? That's true, so I'll give you a sign that's nothing." Edward responded casually with a smile, then reached out to take out two rings from the dimension hole and handed them to the princess's palace.
"This... for me?" One gold and one silver, the gems on the two rings shone brightly, and the strong magical aura on them was enough to make Cecilia show an incredible look.
"It's all high-level magic items..." Putting on the ring and gently stroked the delicate patterns on it, she couldn't help but sigh: "No wonder others say that the mages are all rich people who are far superior to the king. Such things can be given away.
Is it a gift to others?"
"How is it possible that even a rich man, he has not done such a loss-making thing? Usually, I need to pay for it." Edward suddenly said seriously.
"Is this true? Then what reward do you want?" Cecilia was stunned, but immediately noticed the man's gaze, who was circling around him unrestrainedly, even though the Cruold woman was generous and generous.
Personality, she couldn't help but blush for a moment: "What a lustful bastard!" She spat and cursed in a low voice.
"However, for my own woman, this thing is nothing. It's a matter of compensation for me not seeing you these days, okay?" said a malicious smile. The psychic warlock added.
"Who is your woman? You..." Cecilia protested. But she soon forgot what she wanted to say, just widened her beautiful eyes and made a surprise sound.
Because Edward pulled out a red burqa from the dimension hole, a layer of flashing luster suddenly brightened the surrounding light.
This spell, called the Phoenix Battle Jacket, can protect against flashes, and will give people wearing it the ability to fly. It also has a flame shield that can be activated by itself when needed. In addition,
Just say a command and you can release a ray of flame to burn the enemy. Although it is not powerful, it is already a very good self-defense skill for a mage.
In fact, Edward originally planned to hand over this thing to Claudia for use, but the female knight's opinion was that this wide burqa was a little in the battle; and Edward himself. This black one
The protection attached to the burqa has three layers, which is really not worth changing for the sake of flying ability. What's more, he doesn't like the red that is too gorgeous, flowing like a burning red.
For Edward, who just took out a laboratory in the Floating City, these things seem to be nothing, only the difference between 'useful' and 'useless'. However, Cecilia obviously didn't think so.
Things and things represent tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of gold coins. Not to mention the Cruolds, who are weak in primary schools and poor in resources, are rare high-level existences even in the academy.
"You, there are so many women around you."
"Ah?" Edward was shocked. Although as a psychic, he could completely control his expression and act as if he was not seen through: "Of course there is a girl's case, my staff,
The priest in my territory, well, have you seen them too..."
"Don't lie to me, there is a woman's smell on you, a strong floral fragrance. Well, there is a little bit of other smells mixed with, but it seems like it's a smell I don't know."
"Probably the smell of what experimental material is?" Edward's heart moved: "But, can you really smell it?"
Although he had just sorted it out in a hurry, he should have used magic tricks to clean himself up. The traces of joy on his body have long been eliminated, and it is even more impossible to have any fragrance. But there is always a sparse thing on his body, and his clothes are
He had already taken off the lingering thing yesterday at the beginning, so it was not cleaned up.
Could it be...
"From the beginning, it seems that my nose and ears have become particularly sharp. If you pay special attention, you can even smell it. What have others eaten in their previous meals?" Fortunately, Cecilia's personality is not delicate.
, It may also be that the traditional Cruoldians were not sensitive to this kind of problem. She quickly turned her attention to other places and could smile with a little complacent smile: "It's quite convenient."
"Sorry." Edward was silent for a moment.
The so-called beginning before, naturally refers to Marilyn's prank,
Until now, Edward didn't know how the orc curse came from, but it was very likely that he was dragged down by himself, no matter whether the recessive genes in the blood of the Cruolds were stimulated,
Or maybe it was a magic effect, and the initiator was the master of the great wizard, but part of the reason was that she discovered her relationship with Cecilia that she made this malicious joke.
Also, when I traded with it before, I should have considered the curse's method to relieve it, but at that time I chose the spell of real name conversion. This was really unfair and even cold-hearted for Cecilia.
How to do...
Is it because Yasali's power is far more important than Cecilia's?
If she knew her choice, could she still have such a close conversation with herself?
"No need to apologize. Actually, this is very convenient. It doesn't seem to require sleeping for so long every day. I can spare a lot of time to study spells. Well, in short, every day, I'm very energetic." I noticed that the psychic wizard was very good."
Cecilia seemed to guess some of his thoughts in the haze between her eyebrows, but she smiled without caring:
It seems that I... no, it should be considered a kind of compensation.
The relationship with His Highness also seems to have originated from a coincidence (to be continued...)
