Weird Wizarding World

"Do you have any other questions?" Atbold looked at him and continued to ask.

I don’t know if it’s because it’s almost noon or because I’m too tired to answer questions.

Colin always felt that Atbold's tone of voice became slower, and there seemed to be a trace of fatigue on the old face that was like tree bark and covered with ravines.

"No more, Master Atbold."

Colin lowered his head slightly, and after thinking carefully, he answered.

"Um."

On the recliner, Altbold uttered a syllable from his nasal cavity, then closed his eyes and leaned back, while continuing:

"If you have any other questions, you can come to me again in the morning."

"Now, if there is nothing else, please leave first."

His tone was calm, but did not hide the urge.

"Okay, Tutor Attelbald!"

Colin felt a chill in his heart and quickly said goodbye to Atbold, "Then I'll leave first."

Before turning around, he raised his head slightly and glanced at the wooden wall clock on the wall next to him.

On the round clock dial, the slender hands just pointed to 11 o'clock.

‘It’s just 11 o’clock now… there’s still an hour before 12 noon.

Logically speaking, it's not very early, but it's not too late either. ’

Colin frowned slightly in his mind, a little confused.

He didn't know if he was too sensitive, but he always felt that Atbold was urging him to leave...

After walking out of the study, he subconsciously looked back.

Taking advantage of the time when the study door was closed, through the gap in the door, he caught a glimpse of Altbould slowly standing up from the lounge chair and walking towards the huge force field floor-to-ceiling window in front.

The golden sunlight shines in from the floor-to-ceiling windows and falls on his tall body, leaving a dark shadow on the ground that extends to the door.

As Atbold approached, the green trees by the window began to sway without any wind, making a rustling sound.

It was at this time that Colin suddenly discovered that the window of the study room where Atbold often stayed was facing the tall old tree behind the villa, almost as thick as ten people surrounded it. .

It was only the dense foliage that usually prevented him from noticing... It wasn't until this time that the green trees swayed, revealing some gaps, that the ancient tree was exposed to sight...

'Nado's main body...' Colin suddenly thought of the last time Lilian took him to the ancient tree for a brief introduction...

Snap.

Although there are many thoughts in my heart, the reality only passes for a moment.

It was at this moment that the study door slammed shut completely, cutting off Colin's sight and any sound.

After standing at the door for a moment, Colin put away his complicated thoughts and walked downstairs.

Walking on the open gray stone road of the school, the apprentices around him were coming and going, and their footsteps were as hurried as his.

Occasionally, you can see a carriage passing by, often pulled by horses mixed with the blood of Warcraft.

Under the influence of blood, they often show distinctive features, including rugged corners, ferocious teeth, and some even have a few extra tails.

These are the carriages of formal wizards... In the Xisheng School, only formal wizards can travel in carriages, and the other apprentices can only walk.

Thinking of this, Colin paused for a moment.

'Speaking of which, Senior Lilian seems to have never seen her own a carriage...' He felt a little confused.

"It stands to reason that as a first-level wizard, Lilian should be able to afford a carriage... I don't know why she always chooses to take a public carriage."

Colin felt inexplicably embarrassed. Speaking of which, he still had not returned the magic stone he had borrowed from Lilian.

‘How about we put the advancement aside for now, make the magic potion first, and pay back the magic stone we owe Lilian? ’ Colin hesitated a little, his steps gradually stopped, and he stood still.

But after a moment, he shook his head again.

‘It’s no big deal if you have a lot of debt. It’s already been more than four months anyway, so there’s no harm in waiting a few more months. ’

'After all, when you advance to the level of a formal wizard, the number of magic potions produced will obviously increase accordingly... No, when you advance to the level of a formal wizard, maybe a few thousand magic stones will no longer be a problem. ’

Thinking like this, Colin convinced himself and continued walking towards the outside of the school.

'Let's talk to Lilian next time we see her...'

Walked out of the school and stopped a public carriage.

puff.

The tall, strong horses were snoring.

"My lord, where are you going?" The groom took off his gray wide-brimmed hat and asked respectfully.

"Le Sainte Street." Colin replied calmly.

"Okay, sit tight."

Tap tap tap tap——

The horses galloped along.

After a while, in the carriage, Colin frowned slightly.

He stretched out his hand to lift the curtains of the car and glanced out. The street outside was not the familiar street he used to go to his residence...

"parking."

But he didn't panic, he just said something calmly.

The groom is just an ordinary knight... If I read correctly, he is probably a senior knight. As a senior wizard apprentice, he naturally does not need to be afraid.

Furthermore, the shining feather badge of the Xisheng School on his chest also prevents him from being too timid in this city...

Of course, caution is still necessary. He has already blessed himself with a steel temperature-resistant force field.

"Uu——!"

The driver in front heard this and quickly tightened the reins.

The strong horse pulling the cart raised its front legs high and stopped quickly.

"What's the matter, sir?"

The driver's voice came from the front.

"Why go a long way?" Colin asked calmly.

"Sir, don't you know?" the carriage driver's somewhat surprised voice continued, "The nearest road from Xisheng Street to Lieu Saint Street, Lite Street, has been blocked by the law enforcement team this morning."

"Blocked?!"

"Yes, the whole street is blocked," the groom added.

Colin was stunned. It was now a little after eleven in the morning, and he had gone to the school from his home on Lieu Saint Street at about seven in the morning.

At that time, it was normal to pass through Lee Teuk Street... No!

Colin shook his head. Looking back now, Lite Street seemed to have fewer pedestrians than usual after seven o'clock...

Maybe this is just an illusion...

However, it has only lasted four hours so far... I didn't expect that in this short period of time, the entire Lite Street would have been blocked?

"Sir?" came the groom's probing voice.

"Keep walking." Colin ordered, then paused and asked, "Do you know why Little Street was closed?"

"Not sure..." the groom said vaguely while waving his riding crop.

Colin frowned... Not sure.

"grown ups--"

But a moment later, the carriage driver’s voice came from the front again:

“Although I don’t know what happened specifically, I heard from a friend who also drove a public carriage——

After the blockade this morning, it didn't take long for several large carts that usually transport slaves to drive out from Lite Street... I don't know what was inside. "

‘Slave cart…? ’

Lite Street is only one street away from Lieu Saint Street where he lives... This makes Colin feel inexplicably uneasy.

"Diversion, go to Lex Street next to Tin Saint Street."

After pondering for a moment, he opened his mouth and gave instructions to the driver in front.
