The wandering wizard stood by the railing on the second floor, watching the two young wizards leaving in silence.
On the wall behind him, a rustling sound came from a portrait embedded in a walnut frame, and the man wearing a black wizard robe on the canvas suddenly coughed twice.
"Ahem!"
The man in the portrait is wearing a greasy pointed wizard hat, and his huge aquiline nose seems to burst the photo frame. At this moment, he made a fist with one hand, brought it to his mouth, and was pretending to cough:
"Ahem!"
The wandering wizard evidently heard this unusual greeting.
"Say!" He turned his back to the portrait, still looking downstairs, his voice seemed a little gloomy.
"Good evening, distinguished Mr. Congressman." The man in the portrait tugged on the brim of his hat and greeted in a glib tone: "A guest from afar brings you my late summer greetings and wishes you a happy life."
"Humph." The wandering wizard expressed his emotions in one word.
The wizard in the portrait seemed to be aware of the shopkeeper's displeasure, smiled ingratiatingly, and praised:
"This bar is really lively! I've been through London, New York, and Shanghai in the past few days, and I haven't found such a successful bar!"
The wandering wizard remained motionless, as if he had not heard the compliments.
"Those little guys who just came downstairs are really interesting. Is that red-faced boy a child of the Zhang family? Like his grandfather, he can't drink... And the short guy with glasses, I always feel that the black book in his arms
The notebook looks familiar."
The wandering wizard remained motionless and silent.
The wizard in the portrait finally couldn't continue talking to himself. He straightened up and cleared his throat again:
"Ahem, the organization has three things to inform you."
At this point, the man in the portrait changed his tone and began to pinch his throat, saying as if an old eunuch was announcing an edict:
"The first thing is about Dark Blue Castle. Not long ago, their private dimensional fluctuation experiment was discovered by the Wizards Alliance, and the relevant experimental materials were confiscated during the inspection... You should know that when they did the dimensional fluctuation experiment, they used you to
Some valuable experimental materials were withdrawn from the organization in the name of the organization, and now those ghosts have a tendency to default on their debts... Now, the organization means that you will be solely responsible for the follow-up matters of this business."
"Hmph!" The wandering wizard snorted again, but still did not reply immediately.
He knows that another expression of full responsibility is that all losses are also borne by him.
To him, this opinion was not surprising. After all, there are always people who like to add insult to injury.
"The second thing is about the Black Prison. The organization hopes to understand what happened there as soon as possible, and why the First University will recruit elite wizards from all over the world to report back to school... Although they do this very secretly, for this world
For the big shots in the world, nothing is indescribable... I hope you can confirm whether the recent changes in the captains of the Siren King are related to this matter."
At this point, the man in the portrait paused, as if he wanted to say something more, but finally gave up.
The wandering wizard stood motionless in front of the railing, saying nothing.
"The third thing is that the organization has received news that the First University Working Committee will conduct a raid on Wandering Bar in the near future. Please be sure to take relevant preventive measures."
"above!"
The man in the portrait pulled the brim of the pointed wizard hat, returned to his previous smooth tone, and added with a smile: "What instructions do you have?"
The wandering wizard didn't speak immediately.
He was still silently looking at the happy swaying figures in the hall on the first floor.
There was no one in the deep corridor on the second floor, only the breeze coming from nowhere rolled up the curtains on the wall, bringing with it a low whimper.
After a long time, the shop owner of Wandering Bar slowly spoke:
"Regarding Dark Blue Castle, this transaction was brokered by me, so I can be fully responsible for subsequent debt disputes." The wandering wizard's skinny fingers slowly tapped on the wooden railings, and he slowly chewed the appropriate words in his mouth: "Yes.
After reporting back to the committee, I will lower the institutional rating of Blue Castle to Silver within a week...as a first warning."
"Understood!" The man in the portrait took out a small notebook from his pocket and wrote down quickly.
"As for the depths of the Black Prison, there is still no news. In recent months, a large number of wizards have indeed returned from the battlefields of the New World. But these capable forces have currently disappeared into the Black Prison. I have no updated news to provide... Okay
What is certain is that this matter has little to do with the strange movements of those big sea monsters... The strange movements of the big sea monsters should be related to that old immortal guy from First University."
The man on the canvas took a breath and let out a suppressed exclamation: "Him?"
"That old immortal guy has disappeared for almost ten years." The wandering wizard sneered in a low voice: "Now the school's affairs are divided up between the two vice-principals Shi Hui and Ruoyu and several other college deans... If that
If the old man doesn't show up again, it is estimated that Phuket Island will use a civil war in the near future to resolve these unresolved disputes."
The wizard on the canvas swallowed loudly.
His eyes were wandering, and he tugged at the brim of his hat in panic.
He seemed to be frightened by the wandering wizard's bold remarks.
"As for the third thing." The wandering wizard turned his head, his dark eyes fixed on the portrait on the wall, and remained silent for a long time.
The man on the wall had a playful smile at first; then he realized something was wrong and slowly stopped smiling; finally, he lowered his eyes under the gaze of the wandering wizard and began to twist uneasily.
"Go back and tell those old immortal guys! If you want to die, come to Beta Town to find me! Don't play tricks under my nose!" The wandering wizard roared in a low voice, raised his fist, and smashed the outer glass of the picture frame.
"Crash!"
The wandering wizard pressed his skinny fingers directly on the dry canvas, and a wisp of green smoke began to slowly rise from the place where his fingertips came into contact with the canvas:
"If there is another time... the patrol team of the First University is going to rush into my bar, and you come to notify me... then the agreement between us will be like this canvas..."
The man in the portrait jumped up in horror, clutching a small notebook with one hand and holding down his pointed wizard hat with the other, and disappeared from the canvas in the blink of an eye.
The wandering wizard fiercely pulled the blank canvas that had begun to burn out of the photo frame, and tore it into pieces with a few swipes.
Then, he randomly discarded these broken canvases on the floor and walked slowly deeper into the corridor.
Behind him, a multi-armed waiter appeared quietly in the corridor, quietly collecting the burning scraps of paper one by one, and sweeping them clean.
