Dark clouds obscured the moonlight, and a cold wind blew suddenly from the streets, and the air surged, making the night a little thicker.

The moon is dark, the wind is high, and it is late at night.

A wooden window, two people, four eyes, staring at each other.

Look at each other.

Look at each other.

Look at each other for a long time.

Looking at the eyes of the black-robed man outside the window, Richard's muscles contracted, his bones trembled slightly, and his strength was accumulated in his body, ready to deal with any situation at any time.

His hands leaned down slightly, and in the place where he couldn't see through the window, his left hand had already grasped the crystal skull, and his right hand had grabbed a white jade piece, and the energy elements poured out from the source of the law, running in the body, ready to burst out with the strongest attack in the shortest time and the fastest speed to fight against the enemy outside the window.

Richard had a feeling that there was a high probability that the black-robed man outside the ship was the one who killed Wall and deliberately targeted the White Rock Tower. And the strength of the other party may exceed that of the mysterious wizard who killed Gregory he met before.

In this way, no matter how careful and all-out you are, it is not too much.

Otherwise, it is likely that under the opponent's hands, he may not even be able to take a face.

It's just that...... Why is the other party here?

According to the criminal psychology of the earth, there are indeed some criminals who, after committing a crime, return to the scene, or stay near the scene.

There are several reasons for this:

First, in order to eliminate some potential traces that may reveal the identity and prevent being traced.

Second, get satisfaction by observing how the rest of the people react to the case.

Third, pay attention to the latest developments of the case and obtain first-hand information.

Fourth, treat the scene as a trap and wait for the follow-up catchers to appear.

So what kind of person will the other party be?

If we talk about the fourth, things are obviously very troublesome. From the other party's point of view, he came to investigate the cause of Wall's death, and it is very likely that he will be regarded as a member of the White Rock Tower, or at least related to the White Rock Tower.

In this case......

Continuing to look at the black-robed man outside the window, Richard clenched his hand again.

But...... The black robe outside the window didn't move at all.

For a long time, the black-robed man glanced at him meaningfully, and then his body distorted and disappeared from sight.

Richard was stunned, and waited for a long time without noticing anything unusual happening, and then he was sure that the other party had left.

But why should the other party let himself go? Before leaving, he glanced at it meaningfully, and what did it mean? appreciation, warning, teasing?

Richard frowned, puzzled.

He is not a god, and even if he is intelligent, he needs a lot of information as a supporting premise to infer something. In the current situation, there can only be divergent thinking, and only some bold guesses.

Could it be that the other party wants to do something other than to take revenge on the White Stone Tower? So is the White Stone Tower aware of this? If it does, what kind of response will it make?

"It's getting more and more interesting, the wizarding world seems to be complicated. Richard muttered to himself, turning to leave the dangerous place first.

But before leaving, something came to mind.

Glancing at the place where the black-robed man was standing just now outside the window, and estimating the distance from the room, Richard's eyes narrowed, and he recited a spell in his mouth, and multiple "light spirit of the wind" and "brute force of the wind" were blessed on his body.

"Bang", with a slam step on his feet, his body rushed out of the wooden window like an arrow, and on the wall outside the window, the whole person jumped high and quickly approached the roof of the second-floor shop across the street.

When his strength was exhausted and his body was about to fall, Richard's body was close to being less than half a meter away from the store.

Then Richard put his hand on the wall, made a "bang" sound, and his body flew up to the roof, "da-da-da" a few steps, and walked to the place where the black-robed man had stood.

Not surprisingly, where the black-robed man had stood, Richard found a black powder similar to that found in Wall's room.

"Sure enough, it was left by the other party, it should have something to do with the voiding of the body, and it should also belong to a kind of change spell, but I don't know what the principle of the spell is. Richard spoke, gathered the powder, put it in a new glass bottle, labeled it, and quickly returned to the room where Wall had died.

After that, Richard disposed of all traces of himself and quietly left. Prepare to wait for the White Stone Tower to come and see how the other party reacts to Wall's death, and what kind of actions the black-robed man will make.

......

In the blink of an eye, more than ten days later, late at night.

A large wooden boat moved like a floating island in the center of the Emerald River, causing the rest of the small wooden boats to avoid it.

On the deck of the wooden ship, the lights were bright, but only two figures were standing.

One of the figures was dressed in a black robe, and his face was in his forties, with a serious face, looking at the water in front of the wooden boat, not saying a word, not knowing what he was thinking.

The other figure, also dressed in a black robe, looked much younger, less than twenty years old, and had a somewhat pretty girl's face. She wore a ponytail and her expression was a little cold, but in front of another figure, she was still respectful. Looking at the water in front of her for a long time with another figure, the girl tilted her head slightly and said, "Teacher Seaver, in a few hours, by midnight, we will almost arrive at Emerald City." ”

"Hmm. The man known as Teacher Seaver nodded and said softly, "I don't know what happened to Wall." ”

"Wall......" The girl's eyes flashed, "Mr. Seaver, Wall, he is your most satisfying student, and after sending him to Emerald City for so long, I think he will definitely complete the task you gave him." ”

Seaver shook his head, "Not necessarily. I have a hunch that the matter of Emerald Gold City against our White Rock Tower should not be simple, and Wall may not be able to handle it. To be honest, I was thinking, maybe I shouldn't have sent Wall to investigate in advance, and I would have investigated it myself. ”

"Teacher, you're overthinking. The girl's eyes flashed, "I believe in Wall's strength, after all, even I am no match for him." ”

"Heh, Demi, are you still holding a grudge against last year?"

"Don't dare. ”

"Alright, alright, let's wait until we see Wall in Emerald City, I hope he's okay. Seaver muttered to himself, "Everything is normal this time, but don't wait until the end, there is an accident." Otherwise, in front of the rest of the people, I would lose face, especially Louis and Quinton. ”

The girl named Demi didn't dare to answer, and after a while, she asked out loud: "By the way, Mr. Seaver, since our ship and enrollment have basically been completed, do we still need to recruit those who are exempt from the exam?"

"Go ahead. "After all, this is already a rule, a rule set by the academy. ”

"Uh, I see. ”

"Hmm. ”

The two stopped talking, and Seaver continued to look at the water in front of him, and the girl named Demi looked at her together, as if to see through the night.

In the distance, the night was thick, and there was a faint sound of shouting and killing.
