The Lord of Ashes

After sitting at the tutor's place for a while, Thain said goodbye and returned to his residence.

Lu Lianman has not made an immediate decision yet, she is still considering it.

Anyway, this kind of thing cannot be decided in a moment.

It will take some time for the Jizhiyuan Holy Tower to recruit troops and prepare for war. The Steel Wall Fist Knight Hall does not impose a strict requirement to complete the assembly of the magician troops within a few months.

Thain's residence is located a few floors below the floor of the Holy Tower where Lu Lianman is staying.

No matter when, it is convenient for Lu Lianman to find Thain, and Thain can also come and hang out when he has nothing to do.

After decades of traveling, Thain still accumulated a lot of questions during experiments and training.

I just came back today, and Thain took care of everything in one go.

The future is long.

On the 702nd floor of the Holy Tower, Thain used his magic mark to push open the familiar white door.

After not returning home for decades, Thain's room is still spotless.

There is a faint fragrance in the air.

It smells very good and makes people feel relaxed and happy.

After entering the room, some kind of restriction may have been triggered. Within the range of Thain's mental power exploration, there was a familiar life wave approaching.

Not long after, a female magician wearing a pure white magic robe hurriedly ran down the stairs in the room.

The other party was probably doing some magic experiment just a moment ago, and he actually had a telescopic tweezer in his hand.

Thain often uses such props when making alchemy equipment.

The other party's face was still the same as in Thain's memory.

Her skin was obviously much smoother and more supple than before Thain left.

But the overall temperament is more mature than it was a few decades ago.

"Cousin!" the white-robed female magician said excitedly.

Not caring that he still had the experimental equipment in his hands, he ran straight towards Thain.

"Long time no see, Selina." Thain opened his arms and smiled at Selina, who had been promoted to the first level.

Immediately afterwards, Selena ran into Thain's arms, and the two hugged each other.

…

Selina was promoted to the first level twenty-seven years ago.

With Selena's age, it was not too late for her to be promoted to the first level at that age.

In fact, Selena had a chance to hit the first level earlier.

However, the little girl inherited Thain's rigorous and steady character. She had to have everything ready and the success rate was close to 89% before she started to advance to the first level.

For Selena, she must break through as an official magician.

Not for myself, just so that I can always be with Thain in the future.

She didn't expect too much. She could usually help Thain in the laboratory, and she was satisfied when she saw her cousin's wise and mature appearance in front of the experimental table.

Because of Thain's return, Selina interrupted her unfinished magic experiment and devoted herself to cooking a sumptuous dinner for Thain.

Over the decades, Selena's cooking skills have not declined, and have even improved.

Several of the dishes she mentioned that require the use of precious ingredients from the alien plane have never been tasted by Thain before.

It seems that Selina spent time pondering and researching it after she was promoted to the first level.

Of course, Thain couldn't let his cousin work alone, so he called out Yuri, the mermaid and the little fox girl who were resting in the space equipment.

Yuri had met Selena before, but this was her first time meeting the mermaid and the little fox girl.

Selina, who had not yet left the Holy Tower of Blue Origin for traveling, looked at these two rare life forms curiously.

It is estimated that like Thain, when Selina saw the two slave girls at first sight, she did not admire their appearance, but thought about putting them on the experimental bench to study them.

Although the relationship is between cousin and partner, Selina has been by Thain's side since she was an apprentice.

Therefore, Selina also inherited many of Thane's caster concepts and experimental habits.

"Ask them to help you, I'll go to the laboratory and take a look." After saying this to Selina, Thain flew upstairs.

"Okay, cousin." Selena replied.

The owl Xiaoqi also flew out of the space flute at this time and hovered on Thain's shoulder.

Diagonally behind Xiao Qi were four sea lizards following him like dogs.

During the ten years of war in the world of thunder, Haixi and the four of them have grown up well.

Haixi, who is the strongest, is already facing a critical period of breaking through to the first level, and the other three have also reached the quasi-level strength.

During the war, Thane did not bother to discipline them.

Therefore, Xiaoqi usually gets along with them more.

It is strange to say that since the extremely fierce World War of Thunder, the three knight halls have lost a large number of first- and second-level knights, and even the third-level heavenly knights have suffered losses.

But these four sea lizards, who are not even at the first level of life, have been stuck in the battlefield of the Thunder World for ten years.

Thain's care is naturally the most important factor, but one cannot deny their powerful sense of smell in the fields of combat and survival.

It is indeed a corpse-training synthesizer gift specially made by Lina for Thain.

After Thain went upstairs, he mainly processed and stored the various resources and experimental specimens he had obtained in recent years.

It is impossible for Thane to run around with all his belongings all day long. The Holy Tower of Origin of Blue is his home.

Except for the commonly used experimental materials that are carried with him, other biological specimens that are not easy to carry and have only collection significance are all left by Thain in various laboratories and storage rooms of the Holy Tower.

The space of Jizhiyuan Holy Tower is still spacious.

Lu Lianman allocated twenty floors of space to Thain. Each floor has dozens of rooms, and the area is extremely spacious.

Thinking back to Thain's cramped residence in the Space Fortress during the Thunder World War, it was the Holy Tower of Origin that made him feel comfortable.

Thane stayed in the laboratory, easily ignoring the passage of time.

In the end, Selena made a special trip to call Thain, and she cooked a table full of sumptuous dishes.

Selena has been looking forward to this day for many years.

Putting aside the unfinished tidying up work at hand, Thain followed Selina downstairs.

After thinking about it for a moment, Thane sent a crystal ball communication to Irene and asked her if she could come.

Erin and Selina are the only two women that Thain has a close relationship with in the Holy Tower of Origin of Blue.

When I go home today, I have to call the other person up both emotionally and rationally.

"Wait for me, I'll come right away!" Eileen's reply was straightforward.

…

After a sumptuous banquet, the only ones sitting on the table were Thain, Selina and Irene.

As slave girls, Yuri and the others usually don't go to the table.

When Thain was traveling in the wizarding world, he didn't pay much attention to these details and sometimes asked them to eat with him.

A lot of the meals were cooked by the little fox girl Ai Jieli.

But now that we have returned to the home of Jizhiyuan Holy Tower, it is better to abide by the corresponding rules.

In this family, Thain certainly speaks the truth and is the head of the family with the highest status and right to speak.

Next to him is his cousin Selina, who plays the role of a housekeeper.

Originally, the housekeeper beside Thain during his travels was Yuli.

But after returning to the Holy Tower of Blue Origin, this authority naturally has to be transferred to Selina, who has a higher status.

Yuri also understands this.

Irene, who is also a magician and has a closer relationship with Thane, does not have much authority in this family.

This is because Irene is not Thain's wife, nor is she the mistress of this family.

Speaking of which, the relationship between Sean and Irene is somewhat special.

Eileen initially showed that she was quite the mistress, but was politely rejected by Thain because she had a more important Lena in her heart.

In this regard, Thain is indeed not a responsible man.

Fortunately, Irene didn't hesitate to marry Sean.

Knights generally attach great importance to the concept of family and bloodline inheritance, while magicians don't care so much.

Aren’t Thain’s mentors, Lu Lianman and master Cuilis, still single now?

Being single is the norm for most magicians.

On the path of truth exploration, every magician is a loner.

"You can't tell. I haven't seen you for just a few decades, and you are already a second-level magician, Thain." At the dinner table, Irene swung a red wine glass and said to Thain with a slightly red face.

To celebrate Thane's return to the Holy Tower, she got drunk.
