Chapter 598: The Eve of the Conference
On the other side.
The stone building where Richard temporarily lived, on the fourth floor, was in a slightly dirty room.
Teddy the wizard was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, wriggling like a meat worm, uncomfortable.
"Brush!"
After a long time, Teddy the wizard couldn't help but sit up from the bed. Rubbing your neck, rubbing your shoulders, rubbing your arms, grinning your teeth, gritting your teeth.
"Hateful Richard, I treat you as a friend, and you use me as a livestock! Obviously, you work together, those little ghosts are relatively easy, but you use me to death, even if I am a wizard, this is too much! Although you gave me so many crystals and potions, I can't buy them easily with these mundane things, and when this exchange conference is over, go back to the gathering place, and see that I don't have a good talk with you. ”
Teddy the wizard muttered, feeling really uncomfortable, slipped out of bed, walked over to the bed, opened a suitcase, and took out a glass tube from it.
The glass tube contained a reddish potion, and the wizard Teddy looked at it for a while, hesitated, and finally pulled the plug and drank it all.
After drinking it, Teddy the wizard felt warm, and most of his fatigue disappeared in an instant.
"Yes, yes. Tut-tut, wizard Teddy sighed, "It turns out that this potion is so effective, if you knew it, you would have used it a long time ago, and it seems that you have to ask Richard more points if you have the opportunity." ”
With that, Teddy was about to go back to bed and go back to sleep, when there was a knock on the door.
"Bang bang bang!"
"Who?"
"Teddy, it's me, Ezra. ”
"Ezla?" Hearing this, Teddy's eyes flashed, and he walked quickly to the door, squeaked open the door, and saw a wizard about one meter six standing outside the door.
The other party is a member of the Jungle Hut, but it is not from the Dark Forest Gathering Place, nor is it from the Green Wind Gathering Place, it is another wizard in the depths of the Witch Forest called the 'Blue Lagoon' Gathering Place.
When Teddy was a wizard's apprentice, he met each other and had a good relationship, but they separated after becoming a wizard. On weekdays, the two are in contact with each other, but they didn't expect the other party to come to this exchange conference and find him.
"It's you!" Teddy was slightly surprised when he saw the other party, and hurriedly beckoned, "Come in and sit." ”
"No, no, it's better for you to come out. Ersra laughed.
"What?" Teddy wondered.
"Many of us have found a place in the Deep Blue Castle to get together, and you're the only one missing. ”
"Just me, who else?"
"Tuco, Hall, Gna, Darcy, Van Lundin. Ezra quickly said a list of names, "These are the same people who joined the Jungle Hut. ”
"That's right. Ezra suddenly thought of something, her eyes flashed, and she said a little teasingly, "I forgot to remind you, there is Grace in it." ”
"Grace?" Teddy looked confused.
"Don't pretend!" Ezra said, smacking Teddy's chest, "We all know that you liked people back then. ”
"Nonsense!" Teddy glared.
"Okay, okay, I'll just talk nonsense, but it's okay to see each other. Finally, I took advantage of this exchange conference to have the opportunity to get together and exchange ideas. "Don't say you don't want to go, if you don't want to go, admit that you really like Grace, and you can't save face!"
"I-" Teddy snapped, waving his hand helplessly for a moment, "I'm afraid of you!"
With that, he walked out the door and left the stone building with Ezra.
......
The stone building has three floors.
Richard stood in front of the window, watching Teddy and the people walk out of the stone building, looking at the rest of the Deep Blue Castle, and could see that many corners were bustling.
In the past few days, when he was digging with Gro and his party, more and more wizarding organizations rushed to the Deep Blue Castle, causing the number of people in the Deep Blue Castle to surge.
On the eve of the meeting, almost everyone who could have arrived arrived, and it was roughly estimated that about 35% to 45% of the wizards of the entire East Coast had gathered here, which was an unprecedented event, and it was several levels better than the previous East Coast Exchange Meeting held at the White Rock Tower.
And this also leads to a situation, that is: many wizards know each other, and they usually don't have the opportunity to meet, and then exchange conferences, it is rare to get in touch with each other.
Therefore, in the past few days, the atmosphere of Deep Blue Castle has become more and more lively, and everyone is happy without any tension. Where can we see that what is going to be discussed is a major event that threatens the entire East Coast?
In fact, in a sense, this can also explain the mind of most wizards.
In the eyes of most wizards, what the White Rock Tower says about a crazy wizarding organization may exist, but it is clearly exaggerated. They participated in the exchange conference, but they just gave the White Stone Tower and the Deep Blue Castle a face, and went through the motions, and they really didn't feel that things were so critical.
After all, there are countless wizards on the entire East Coast, and there are many "monsters" with exaggerated strength hidden among them.
So, it must be a joke, it must be a mistake, don't worry about it at all!
Richard had a very different idea.
He had seen the destruction of White Rock City by meteorites with his own eyes, and he did not think that the propaganda of the White Rock Tower was fictitious or exaggerated.
However, it's one thing to believe, and it's another thing not to care.
For him, what happened to the White Rock Tower had nothing to do with him, and it didn't matter to him whether there were any crazy wizard organizations that challenged the entire East Coast.
His sense of responsibility and justice has never been very strong, and he doesn't feel qualified to be a savior, so he doesn't want to pay attention to these things at all. All he was concerned about at the moment was to unravel the final secret of the Black Spirit King, to understand the history that had disappeared, and then to figure out a small piece of the entire world.
Now, almost half of the suspicious location in the small village of Artis has been ruled out, and when the exchange meeting is over, he should be able to find out if he finds an opportunity to stay here for another ten days.
When the time comes, you will be able to dig up the last treasure of the Black Spirit King and figure everything out.
And once he figured everything out, he could leave the East Coast with Pandora and walk away, avoiding all the troubles and concentrating on researching things.
Thinking so, Richard looked at the night outside by the window and muttered, "The exchange conference, it should be ...... Nothing could go wrong, right? Well, hopefully not. ”
......
"I hope there will be no problems at the exchange meeting tomorrow. ”
Almost the same words, in the darkness of the night, were spoken by another person.
In a corner of the Deep Blue Castle, at the top of a tall stone tower, a man sits on the edge. His feet swayed outside the wall, but his body sat straight, wearing a white shirt and a large bowl of marmalade in his hands.
"Suck, goo!"
Scooping a large spoonful of marmalade into his mouth and swallowing it hard, Macbeth's brow furrowed.
"The taste is not very good, it seems that there is indeed a problem with what I made, and I really have no talent, alas. After the exchange conference, find time to learn cooking, after all, there is not much to live, and you can't treat your mouth too badly. ”
Macbeth spoke, marmalade in hand, and looked at the rest of the Blue Castle. Look at the lively corners, look at the cold corners, look at the bright corners, look at the dark corners.
After watching it for a long time, Macbeth slowly spoke: "I really hope that there will be no problems at the exchange conference tomorrow, otherwise I will really have a headache." After all, my body can shorten part of its lifespan once it fights, and I want to live a little longer and eat more marmalade. ”
"Ahem!" Macbeth coughed suddenly, his face a little frighteningly pale.
When the cough was over, Macbeth's face tensed, as if he was in some pain.
After a moment, his expression relaxed, as if the pain had eased, and then he laughed self-deprecatingly: "Hehe, by the way, am I stupid, what am I worried about here alone? Deep Blue Castle is now home to almost half of the wizards on the East Coast, what can happen? Even if something really happens, it's not something I can stop." Besides, the White Rock Tower is not my own, do you need me to worry about it? ”
After Macbeth finished speaking, he shook his head and suddenly jumped towards the bottom of the stone tower. The body fell almost halfway in free fall, slid in mid-air, and disappeared into the night like a bird.
......
The night was quiet, and many people were doing all kinds of things and had all kinds of ideas this night, but there were really few people who thought that something would really happen at the exchange conference.
And in this case, the final arrangement of some plans is quietly underway.
......
