Tomorrow's Ark's Pit System

"Hello, who are you?"

I knocked on the door of the mansion, and a man who looked like a butler came out and asked politely

"Hello, is this the residence of Viscount Hanks?"

"Yes, what's the matter with you?"

"Would you please inform Mr. Priest or Mrs. Lawrence? Say it's the son of an old Iberian."

The butler took another careful look at me, then nodded and went in to report to Priest. Not long after, there was a sound of hurried footsteps, followed by a hearty voice: "Nephew , Long time no see! I miss you to death!"

The door was opened, revealing a man who was slightly old but still in good spirits. Needless to say, he was his father's best friend during his lifetime, Mr. Lister, Viscount of Pletania.

I greeted him with a smile, "Uncle Priest, long time no see."

Priest looked me up and down, patted me on the shoulder and sighed: "Tsk tsk, good boy, I was a little kid who was not as tall as my knees back then. In a blink of an eye, I have grown so big. If you didn't call me, I would I almost can’t recognize you, let’s go, come in, it’s cold outside, come in and say.”

Then he shouted excitedly into the room: "Ma'am, Lan Xin's brother is here!"

"Here we come, is it Xiao Feng?"

"Yes! He's back."

"Just right, I just baked some cakes, old man, you hurry up and greet Xiao Feng, I'll bring the cakes."

"necessary."

Priest continued: "It's a coincidence that you came here, and you are lucky. Your Aunt Lawrence's cake is a must. Everyone is full of praise after eating it."

Not long after, Lawrence came to the living room with a plate of freshly baked cakes, gently cut into several pieces with a knife, and said enthusiastically, "Xiao Feng, haven't you had breakfast yet? Come and have some cake and some coffee pads to rest your stomach Bar?"

The butler just brought three cups of coffee, and I was not polite. After nodding, I picked up a piece with the dining fork and stuffed it into my mouth regardless of whether it was hot or not. After chewing carefully, I took a sip of coffee. I feel like I'm in heaven

"Xiaofeng, where have you been all these years? Aunt Lawrence and I went back to Iberia a few years ago. They said that you had packed up your things and left. They didn't know exactly where you went. That's terrible. I frightened you, Aunt Lawrence, and we started all relationships, but we still couldn't find any trace of you, sorry, I couldn't help you when you needed it most..." Priest said with dark eyes

I quickly waved my hand, swallowed a corner of the cake in my mouth and said, "Uncle Priest, you don't have to blame yourself, I chose the path myself, besides, am I not here right now? You don't have to worry about me, I've grown up."

Lawrence helped me refill the coffee and said, "Xiaofeng, can you tell us about your experience in the past few years? Your Uncle Priest and I are very concerned."

I nodded my head and said everything from Sargon becoming a mercenary to Victoria entering the Royal Academy of Guards and starting a business in Columbia. I disappeared.Rao is so, the husband and wife are still worried about me

"It turns out that you are really the founder of Black Steel International! Old woman, let me just say, Xiao Xuan's (Xiao Feng's father)'s child is not an ordinary person? You just keep saying that they are people with the same name and surname."

"Okay, okay, I was wrong, okay? But seeing you like this now, I believe that Xiao Xuan and Lilith (Xiao Feng's mother) should be at ease in the spirit of the sky."

"Yeah, what a good boy..."

The atmosphere suddenly became a little dignified and sad. I quickly changed the subject and said, "By the way, uncle and aunt, how is Lan Xin? Are you doing well?"

Speaking of Xiao Lanxin, the sadness on the faces of the two of them suddenly decreased a lot. Lawrence took the chatterbox and said, "Lanxin is terrible. When the school started, she was detected to have the adaptability of Originium skills of the excellent level or above. Later With his own efforts, he became Professor Mu Feng's favorite student."

Priest also followed suit: "Yes, Professor Mufeng is known as the No.1 of the era in Letania, and he is the youngest professor in the Warlock Academy. They are all top-notch existences, and as far as I know, Professor Mu Feng has not accepted any students before, and Lan Xin is lucky."

"Old man, what do you mean by 'getting lucky'? Obviously, our Lan Xin is talented, intelligent, hardworking, and he is lucky to be able to accept us Lan Xin as a student!"

"Yes, yes, Madam is right, it is Professor Mu Feng who is 'Gao Pan'."

I got up and bowed heavily to Priest and Lawrence: "Thank you, uncle and aunt, for nurturing and nurturing my sister in the past few years. Here, I would like to express my most sincere gratitude to both of you on behalf of my sister. "

Priest quickly helped me up and said, "Silly boy, this is what we should do, get up quickly."

"Yeah, yeah, don't be so extravagant, even if we didn't make such a request before, as the children of Xiao Xuan and Lilith, we will help wholeheartedly."

"By the way, uncle and aunt, when will Lan Xin come back? I haven't seen her for a long time."

Lawrence sighed and said, "Lan Xin hasn't come back for a long time. No matter how busy she was before, she would come back at the end of every month, but since she followed that professor named Mu Feng, she seldom goes home. , Even after returning home, he shut himself in the room and seldom talked to us.

Speaking of it, it seems that she hasn't come home for two or three months. It's all your fault, old man. If you hadn't introduced that Mu Feng to Lan Xin, Lan Xin wouldn't have become like this!It's all your fault! "Speaking, Lawrence made a gesture to hit Priest.

Priest dodged quickly and said: "Hey, don't I want to let us Lan Xin learn more advanced knowledge? And Lan Xin didn't go home, maybe she was busy with some academic matters, what do you know? "

"What do I know? I just know how to make her happy every day, with a smile on her face. Have you noticed that the few times she came home recently, she didn't even have any expression?"

"It seems to be true, but if you want me to say, it's normal. Have you ever seen a child who is smirking all day long? I think you are worrying too much."

Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel again, I hurriedly tried to dissuade them: "Uncle Priest, Aunt Lawrence, please stop arguing, how about this, please tell me Lanxin's dormitory number and the classroom she often goes to. I'm going to find her at the Academy of Warlocks in Letania."

"Hey, Xiaofeng, you don't know something. It's not like your Uncle Priest and I haven't looked for it, but we couldn't find anyone..."

I frowned slightly, and then continued to ask: "Then, Aunt Lawrence, when did you find her?"

"Let me think about it, it seems like, last month?"

"Yes, it was last month. I still remember the doorman. He looked down on others. If I hadn't revealed the Viscount ID card, he wouldn't have let us in." Priest gritted his teeth angrily. road

"It's okay, uncle and aunt, you just need to tell me about Lan Xin, and I'll find the rest by myself."

"Okay, I can't say enough about you, boy, that's all, do you want to sit down for a while? Let's have lunch together later?" Priest took out a note and a golden card and handed it to me.

The note contained some specific information about Xiao Lanxin in the Warlock Academy, and the card was the Viscount's identity certificate

"Here, Uncle Priest, isn't this card too expensive?"

"Hey, what's the big deal, every nobleman in Laitania can send out ten of these things, your uncle and I have only given out two so far, if there are too many, please accept it, besides, if you don't have one, That bullying security guard is probably going to trouble you again."

Seeing that I couldn't evade it, I had no choice but to agree to accept it. After a lot of wrangling, I left a business card and a note with my exclusive contact number on it, and left Viscount Hanks' mansion

After stopping a car at random, I came to Leitania Warlock Academy without saying a word

Seeing the doorman at the door, I hesitated for a while, then took out my student ID card from the Royal Victoria Guards College, and said to the doorman: "I was invited to come to your college for academic exchanges and discussions. Make it easy."

As one of the top institutions of higher learning in the world of Terra, the Royal Victoria Academy has indeed had many alliances and exchanges with the Lytania Warlock Academy, and I am not completely lying

After carefully checking the authenticity of the documents, the guards let them go

I walked in without changing my face, and at the same time began to search for the dormitory where Xiao Lanxin was.

However, the size of the Letania Warlock Academy was beyond my imagination. In desperation, I had no choice but to find a Caprini student and asked: "Hello, classmate, do you know where Building G is?" Is it? My sister asked me to help with something, she was too hasty when she left, so she dropped it."

The man couldn't help but change his face when he heard the words, then he patted my shoulder lightly and left

I couldn't help but feel a little baffled. Only after I "caught" three in a row did someone answer me: "Brother, I can't bear to watch you step by step into the abyss again. I'll tell you in a low voice, don't you!" Tell others that I told you, lest the bad luck transfer to me."

Seeing his nervous expression, I couldn't help but pay more attention to it, and then quickly said: "It's okay, just tell me, I'm mentally prepared."

After the man looked around again to make sure there was no one there, he lowered his voice and said, "The G building you mentioned is very evil!"

"Oh? How do you say that?"

"Your sister probably didn't tell you, did she? Most of the students in Building G are missing, running away, maybe only the witch Xiao Lanxin is still living there."

"Witch Xiao Lanxin?"

"You do not know?"

I suppressed the throbbing in my heart and continued: "I would like to hear the details."

The man cleared his throat and continued: "The first group of people who disappeared were Xiao Lanxin's roommates, and the second and third groups that followed were all from the dormitory near Xiao Lanxin. After hearing about this incident, Most of them have moved out of the dormitory, and the few who have not moved out have also been listed on the missing list one after another, do you think this is evil?"

"Speaking of which, since so many people have disappeared, why haven't people from your school come forward to investigate? Instead, they blocked the news so that no one else would know?"

"Brother, you don't know. Those teachers and professors who investigated are all missing. Who would dare to continue to intervene in this matter from the teachers of the entire Letania Warlock Academy?"

As far as I know, the school has contracted out the disappearance case. Whoever can successfully crack it will be awarded an honorary professorship at the Letania Warlock Academy and have a recommendation to enter the Letania Warlock Academy. "

"I'll go! So powerful?!"

"That's right, the title of honorary professor! In Letania, it is more useful than a viscount or even an earl!"

"Hey, since it's so powerful, why did the Letania Warlock Academy offer it as a reward? Why didn't you ask the relevant state agencies to investigate? Wouldn't it save you money?" I scratched my head and asked suspiciously road

"Brother, brother, I think you don't know something. If you report it to the government agency, wouldn't it be exposed? There is a saying in Yanguo that's 'Family ugliness should not be publicized'. If the relevant government agency finds out, then the Queen will Don’t you know it over there? When the time comes, the school will make such a big basket, and they will definitely not be able to eat it.”

"However, so many people have disappeared, how will the family members deal with it? Won't they come over and make trouble?"

The man looked confident, and talked eloquently: "You don't know something, brother, you are new here, right?"

"Senior, you guessed it right, I really just entered our academy not long ago." I went down the donkey path directly

"Then you've found the right person. I'm a know-it-all at the Letania Warlock Academy. If you have any questions, you can just ask me. It's a bit far-fetched. Where did we just talk?

Oh, by the way, why didn't their parents come to find the school? Hey, it's not because Letania College will hold some field experiments from time to time. These are all dangerous. Before leaving, the school will let them Sign a waiver, so, you know..."

"When you say that, it seems to be true, but it seems that it is not good to sentence someone to death based on this alone? What if they are lucky?"

"It's okay to be lucky, but how can you say that this one is lucky? There must be something wrong with it. I'll make a bold guess. This witch Xiao Lanxin is the culprit who caused so many people to disappear!"

I frowned. In terms of common sense, what he said was indeed correct, but blood is thicker than water. I couldn't treat it rationally, but I couldn't say anything. After asking the man to help point out the direction, I said two words. After thanking you, I went to find out the truth behind this large-scale disappearance.
