Chapter 29 Destination

Behind the door is a dark, deep corridor.

Exquisite marble wall tiles, simple and heavy wooden floors, mixed with the breath of time, make people stare with bated breath, for fear of disturbing the sleeping souls in the corridor - this is not an exaggerated modification, but some kind of decoration. degree of fact.

On both sides of this corridor, there are portraits of famous wizards who graduated from Alpha Academy. Including Gene Black O'Brien, the patriarch of the O'Brien family three hundred years ago, William Talbot, the dragon-slaying warrior of the Talbot family two hundred years ago, and the combination of Eastern weapon refining techniques and Western style one hundred and fifty years ago. Jiang Qianli, the great alchemist who combined alchemical theories; Edward Jenner, the great healer who invented the dragon plague syphilis treatment a hundred years ago; Smail, the great wizard who made important contributions to the theory of dimensional topology fifty years ago. Nott wait.

Based on respect for tradition and honor, the Alpha people always like to hang these old people who have made outstanding contributions on the wall in beautifully carved walnut photo frames for people to admire. However, as time went by, more and more portraits were hung on the walls, so that blank walls were rarely seen in the entire Alpha Castle.

Zheng Qing even heard Lin Guo say that there was a debate in Alfa Castle some time ago, discussing how to deal with too many 'hanging portraits': some people suggested opening a special room to serve as an exhibition hall; others suggested that later portraits could be used as appropriate. Hanging in the villa area outside the castle; there are also people who prefer to move away "certain wizards with less outstanding achievements" and give the vacant positions to more "qualified" wizards - Edward who invented the dragon pox planting technique. Jenner belongs to 'certain low achievers' group.

However, seeing the therapist who had been fighting the dragon disease syphilis all his life still hanging peacefully in this corridor, Zheng Qing knew that the discussion at Alpha Academy had no final result.

"Oh, I should remember to bring a few Silence Talisman." The young public-funded student noticed the portraits waking up one after another on both sides of the corridor and muttered in annoyance. He remembered that these portraits that had been hung on the wall for many years seemed to have bad tempers.

As the stone door slowly opened, the pale yellow sunlight fell slantingly on this deep corridor, waking up the old people in the picture frame one by one. Some rough and abrupt curses gradually sounded in the corridor.

"It's not your fault." Elena took out a Paris version of the Dharma book from her arms - Zheng Qing remembered that the salesperson at Shangyuan Bookstore had introduced it to him. This kind of Dharma book has a gorgeous style and a heavy feel. There are also proverbs from Matthew Chapter 7 on the chrysanthemum.

The gypsy witch did not give the public-funded students more opportunities to watch.

She opened the book, her fingers danced quickly between the pages, and she cast three spells in succession:

"I'm still awake!"

"Shang Mei Wu Cong!"

"Shangmeiwu 吪e!"

Zheng Qing was very familiar with these three spells.

Not long ago, the new student Saishan, a young public-funded student, once used these spells in a certain guardian circle to knock down his companions, and then went out alone to face the surging beast tide.

"Shangmei Wujue" means to close your eyes and sleep honestly; "Shangmei Wucong" means to close your ears and sleep honestly; "Shangmei Wuyi" means to close your mouth and sleep honestly Sleep - In short, using this set of combined spells can make people fall into sleep quickly without being able to perceive any external messages. It is the only way to promote sleep and destroy the home.

Although the shadow took a lot of 'experience' with it after leaving, the young public-funded student can still use it skillfully with the spells it once used with Zheng Qing's body.

"What a great choice!" The wizard admired, and suddenly asked: "Do you need a phantom charm? I have a few of them with me... just to be prepared."

His suggestion was not without purpose - looking at Elena's actions along the way, she probably didn't want people to know that she was in Alpha Castle today. Although he didn't know what her plans were, as her companion, Zheng Qing felt that he should show his due value.

"Thank you then." The witch's eyes flickered, she glanced at the wizard with a smile, and took the phantom talisman he handed over.

Soon, Zheng Qing found that his actions were somewhat unnecessary. There seemed to be an evacuation drill going on in the huge Alpha Castle, and there was no one around. Except for a few milky white ghosts floating around in a daze, the young public-funded student could not see any more signs of life.

However, this open environment is more conducive to the actions of 'infiltrators'.

The two wizards who had concealed their whereabouts quickly passed through the corridor, crossed the courtyard in the center of the castle, and moved quickly along the criss-crossing stairs. Not even the huge golden clock could distract the witch.

Zheng Qing noticed that Elena's purpose of moving forward was very clear.

So he tried to suppress his curiosity - he would eventually know, he comforted himself in his heart.

In fact, his curiosity was satisfied a little quicker than he expected. After turning several intersections and passing through an unpopular rest area, Elena's footsteps finally stopped in front of an arch.

"We're here!" She clapped her hands briskly, took out a thin, iron-leather-like badge from her pocket, and stuffed it into the hands of an alchemy doll standing at the arch door.

"Welcome." The puppet glanced at the empty corridor in front of him with dull eyes. Without any hesitation, he moved his seat stiffly according to the fixed procedure and made way for the entrance of the arch.

"Is this here?" Zheng Qing looked at the flower-carved arch and some familiar badges hanging outside the door with some surprise. He always felt like he had seen these signs somewhere.

"Friedman's lounge is also the headquarters of the 3A club." Elena's tone was unusually calm, as if she was talking about what to eat this afternoon: "They are staying in the villa area outside the castle today... all the time There will be no one here until classes start tomorrow morning.”

"What are you doing here?" Zheng Qing couldn't help but ask.

"I have to do homework, so I have to come." The witch sighed, as if she didn't want to explain more.

"Do you have the secret key here?" The young public-funded student was still curious.

"No." The witch shrugged, took the badge returned by the alchemy doll, and tossed it in mid-air: "I 'borrowed' this from someone."

Zheng Qing was stunned.

Thinking on his heels, he could guess what the specific meaning of 'borrow' was.

Although he had some disagreements with the Friedman boss, as time went by, the conflicts between the two because of Arthur Ness seemed to have been resolved a lot. To be fair, although the young public-sponsored student is not an honest person who follows the rules, he definitely does not have the 'hobby' of breaking into other people's lounges.

And Friedman is clearly not an easy person to deal with.

Just when he was hesitating to say something more, the witch walking in front suddenly turned around and showed a strange smile.

"Ah, I almost forgot!"

"You won first place in the hunting competition, and I haven't given you a gift yet!"
