Chapter 142: Riding a Cat in a Tree
"The other day, it was the time of your school's winter hunt. ”
"Near your off-campus hunting ground, a brief but violent wave of time and space erupted. It could be that a terrible wizard is trying to attack the school across the constraints of time and space, or it could be that some big guy at the school is reversing time and space, reversing cause and effect. ”
"In any case, because of that brief and violent space-time fluctuation, a small fold overflowed in the space near Phuket Island. ”
"Well, analogy...... It's like a plastic sheet spread on the tabletop, which was originally flat and neat. But because someone pulled it, a small bubble formed in the film. If you have some knowledge of magical cosmology, then you can understand what a 'bubble universe' is. ”
In other words, that little bubble is a secret place in your heart. ”
"Under normal circumstances, when the first university, or the newly born secret realm on Phuket Island, appears in the first place, the school will often search and anchor at the first time, and then further organize the hunting team to explore and clean up, and finally register according to whether there is development and utilization value. ”
"But for some reason, the school was a little sluggish this time. It's been two months since the secret realm was born, and there is no sign of them searching and cleaning it up. ”
"This is your chance. ”
"Probably the only chance. ”
The Rat Immortal did not mention to the witch in detail the source of these messages, nor did he tell the witch the specific location of the secret realm, the way to enter, the strength of the place, and so on. It just gave the witch such a chance.
Hearing the news, Colmar couldn't suppress the joy on her face.
But at the same time, her attention was obviously attracted by some of the words of the Rat Immortal, and she asked very keenly, "Is it related to the early end of our winter hunting last semester? Everyone is rumored to have something to do with the Dark Council, is it true?"
The Rat Immortal's beard trembled, and his arm was put back on the black hardwood armrest of the Grand Master's chair. The witch's questions were not answered head-on.
"Rumors, rumors, who can tell if it's true or false. The rat fairy shook his head and said kindly to Colma, "You are still young and have a lot of time. I will tell you everything you know. It's not for you to know, and there's no good in knowing too much. ”
"Just like the other day, that guy from Satogua projected from the depths of the starry sky, staring at the sky over Phuket Island with a big yellow eyeball, as if looking for something. As a result, the school people directly poked out their eyeballs. ”
"Do you have any memories of this?"
Colmar raised an eyebrow and shook her head slowly. In her impression, except for the news of a certain pet snake and painted skin in the school these days, the overall situation is quite calm - she subconsciously ignored the contradictions between the community and the fish-people.
The rat immortal nodded: "As expected. I've guessed this ever since my kids told me that nothing strange happened that day. As I said earlier, if you know what the school doesn't think is appropriate for you, you won't have any impression of it. ”
"This is your protection. There have been countless young wizards in history who have fallen into madness because they were exposed to knowledge that was not suitable for them. Worse still, they have become corrupted and corrupted. These are all lessons from history. ”
"When you're in the right position and you're capable, you'll always know the facts. ”
Speaking of this, the rat immortal tugged at the corners of his mouth, hissed a cool breath, and muttered, "Hiss...... After saying this, I always feel that I am more suitable to study the text of history like the old master Qian Zhiji, rather than the nonsense of biological evolution. Perhaps, if I had studied the text of history, I would have gotten rid of this picture of being neither a human nor a mouse. ”
Colmar didn't say anything, just silently jotted down every word the rat fairy had said. When I go to university, the more I know, the more I am in awe of the world, and the more I know the importance of taking every opportunity to accumulate knowledge.
The rat immortal paused, and his slender toes tapped the black hardwood handrail again: "Straight to business...... You just asked me where there is a suitable small world for you to place the magic array, and my answer is the clue just now. It was a newly born secret realm that had not yet been pocketed by the school. How to enter, whether there will be danger or not, these are all up to you to figure it out. ”
When the witch heard this, she couldn't help but roll her eyes quietly, and looked at the rat fairy with the last shred of expectation.
"Please!" she folded her hands and prayed with a pitiful look, "You are an immortal, a big man, and an ancestor." With a casual glance, you can know the specific location of that secret realm, and you can find the entrance to that secret realm by drawing a circle casually. I'm just a college student who hasn't graduated yet. Even if his academic performance is a little better and he barely has the strength to be a registered wizard, he is still seventeen or eighteen years away from the qualifications needed to explore the new world!"
"I'm not an immortal, I'm an ancestor, I'm a mouse!" replied, apparently remembering what the witch had said earlier. It's just that Colma's compliment was not useless, and it was very ironed in his heart, and the corners of the Rat Fairy's eyes narrowed into a slit when he heard the smile.
The witch continued to fold her hands, looked pitifully at the rat fairy, and said no more.
I have to admit that sometimes silence is more moving than justification.
"Okay, okay, that's what it looks like every time it doesn't make sense. The rat fairy's paws were rarely lifted from the hardwood handrail, and he waved slightly at the witch: "It's hard to say, it's easy to say. Although I can't help you directly due to certain limitations, I can help you find a guide. ”
"Guide?" Colma blinked, but stopped talking.
The thing she planned to do was not a big deal for the rat immortals. But for schools and wizarding alliances, it is strictly forbidden and belongs to the absolute black area.
If you don't have 100% trust in doing this kind of thing, you should never tell anyone about it.
Therefore, when she mentioned the 'guide' mentioned by the rat immortal, she naturally brought a little scrutiny and a little vigilance. But on the other hand, the rat fairy has a guiding feeling for her, and she has just guessed what she wants to do. As the saying goes, people grow old and become fine. The rat is old, and it is also a rat spirit. It is not advisable to be unaware of those taboos.
Therefore, the witch did not immediately refuse, but quietly looked at the rat fairy, expecting what kind of guide he could provide her.
The rat immortal squinted, and suddenly he was happy: "Before introducing that guide, I'll give you a brain teaser, okay?"
Colma nodded in confusion, not knowing what the old man was selling.
The rat immortal coughed lightly and asked solemnly: "Question: There are seven cats on the tree, there are no cats on the ground, how many cats are there in total, and whose cats belong to?"
