Chapter Seventy-One: Lack of Capacity
After the flame face was pinched and exploded, those crimson sparks scattered and floated in all directions, alternating with the Venus that emerged from Zheng Qing's eyes, leaving elegant traces on his retina.
After Su Shijun finished blowing on his palm, he snapped his fingers.
The restraints around Zheng Qing suddenly disappeared without a trace.
The wizard immediately snapped up nervously and touched the gray cloth bag around his waist. But the stupid gesture lasted only a few seconds before he came to his senses and sat back in awkwardness.
"I'm sorry," he stared into Su Shijun's eyes and whispered, "It was a conditioned reflex just now." ”
The witch tilted her head, a smile on her face.
"It's funny," her voice was as languid as before, "the first time a wizard had a reflex in front of me was to attack...... Looks like this is not the right time to chat. If nothing else......"
As she spoke, she pursed her lips and turned her head to look out the window, meaning very clearly - if nothing else, she would respond to the 'Fireface' request to help Beta deal with the Kuroshio incident.
The expression on Zheng Qing's face froze slightly.
"You haven't told me what's in danger of me. The young student complained in a brisk tone. As a sign of closeness, he again abstained from using honorifics.
"Oh, that's a question. Su Shijun stretched out a finger, pressed it on his eyebrows, pondered for a moment, and then slowly replied: "Because your identity is more sensitive, from now on, until the right time comes, you can't participate in any hunting or other disputes outside the school...... so as not to have accidents. ”
"For example, there was an accident during last year's winter hunting. Zheng Qing muttered.
"Bingo!" the witch snapped her fingers and continued, "Specifically, you can't get out of the shroud of the school's guardian formation...... Try to do as little as possible things like you own a small shop on a pedestrian street or want to go to a wandering bar with friends. ”
"When is the right time, will someone notify me?" Zheng Qing couldn't help but interrupt Su Shijun's words. He felt as if he was being strangled by an invisible rope, and he was a little out of breath: "Why can't you just tell me the truth?"
Mr. Wu, Su Shijun, and even Professor Yao, etc., they all seem to know about themselves, but they don't. This feeling of being kept in the dark is terrible.
Very bad.
"Because you're too weak. Su Shijun did not shy away from those bad adjectives, and pointed out very clearly: "You don't even have the level of registering a wizard...... Carrying a Merlin Medal and a title of Grand Arcana has exhausted you, and you are looking around for help, so what about the greater, heavier responsibilities? Do you think you can carry it now?"
The words made Zheng Qing speechless, and immediately fell into a deep silence.
"My talisman is not bad. After being silent for a long time, he forced a smile, trying to save a little face.
"It's really good," Su Shijun nodded, then glanced at him: "But that's all." When you can blow up the descendants of Satogua with a single spell without a talisman gun, you will probably have enough power to bear the truth. ”
Zheng Qing sighed deeply.
He knew that it was impossible for him to get more information from Su Shijun.
Picking up the teacup on the table and swallowing the already cool tea, the young wizard suddenly remembered something else.
"Professor Montella. He whispered the name.
"What?" Su Shijun raised his eyebrows.
"Professor Montella, a professor in charge of bloodline research at First University, you know, right!" Zheng Qing just remembered that after the moon hunt was over, Lao Yao's advice, as if he was holding on to a rope, looked at Su Shijun: "Some time ago, Professor Yao suggested that I consult Professor Montella about my physical condition...... He said that you know Professor Montella well and can help me write a letter of introduction. ”
After that, he looked at the witch with a blank eye, and the unfinished meaning was obvious.
Su Shijun showed an unhappy expression on his face: "Old man Yao is the dean of Jiuyou Academy, isn't his face bigger than mine? What do you mean...... Why should I write!"
Zheng Qing naturally couldn't follow Su Shijun to call Lao Yao 'Old Man Yao'.
"Maybe the professor thinks that's a little more appropriate. He replied vaguely.
"Hell yes. Su Shijun closed his eyes, exhaled heavily, and his figure disappeared from the sofa in an instant.
Zheng Qing was stunned, and reached out to touch the fruit plate on the table.
He had been staring at the big purple grapes for a long time, but because the witch had been eating and eating, he was too embarrassed to reach out. Now that she's gone, the wizard feels like he should take the chance.
But before he could peel off the grape skin, Su Shijun appeared in front of him again.
It's just that this time, the witch has put on a big red fur, and she is dressed up to go out.
"I'll write you a letter of introduction," her gaze was fixed on Zheng Qing's hand pinching the grapes, and her tone was slightly unkind: "It depends on your performance...... With less than a week to go before the winter break, you should behave a little more responsibly with Poseidon. ”
Zheng Qing had the intention to throw away the grapes in his hand, but he felt rude, and if he ate it directly, it seemed even more rude.
In hesitation, he simply pinched the grape and replied.
"Okay. Feeling a little pressured to sit on the sofa and answer, the young public scholarship student stood up and hid his hand holding the grapes behind his back: "I also feel that Poseidon has been playing a little bit off during the winter vacation recently, tomorrow, no, tonight, I will take it to the library to do homework!"
This answer seems responsible, but it's also a little weird.
Su Shijun frowned, hesitated, and finally did not continue to dwell on this issue.
"Also, don't discuss today's events with your companions...... If you don't want me to give you a powerful amnestic spell, then forget all about what we've just said and seen. Su Shijun seemed to know what he wanted to ask, waved his hand, and stopped: "This is good for everyone." Limited benefits. ”
There is no need for her to advise, and Zheng Qing will not talk about this matter with his partners.
To be precise, he didn't know anything, so naturally he couldn't talk to them.
"Oh, yes. Before leaving, Su Shijun reminded as if inadvertently: "There is a little girl named Jiang Yu in your class, who knows the relationship between Poseidon and me...... Of course, she herself was smart and signed a silent agreement. Well, just to inform you, don't act too stupid in front of other people. ”
Zheng Qing's face was colorless, and he watched the bright red disappear into the living room.
