These eyes, this face, and that black figure, as well as the never-ending fire at the Pantheon Welfare Institute, are buried together in the scorched earth of my memory.

The whole world seemed to be speechless, eerily quiet.

"Xavier..."

My throat was trembling, my lips were trembling, but I couldn't help but pronounce his name.

"..."

Looking at each other, he seemed a little confused.

I looked at him carefully, and found that there were still faint traces of the past between his eyebrows and eyes, but there was a long and hideous scar on his cheek.

His eyes were empty, and a dreamlike expression appeared on his face: "K..."

"Kroll..."

His lips opened and closed, and finally said my name.

He seemed much duller than when he was young, and maybe, like me, he was overwhelmed by the fact of meeting him suddenly, unable to express his emotions fluently.

"Great, you're still alive..."

Because I was so excited, I even felt that I couldn't say a complete sentence.

Interpol around.

Xavier is still alive, he didn't die in that fire, he wasn't buried in some unknown place.

He is here, before my eyes.

"Great..." I embraced him with my arms, and patted his back vigorously: "Xavier, I never wanted to believe that you died in that fire."

"Great, you really didn't die..."

My throat was choked, and I stopped repeating these words.

Compared to me, Xavier is more silent, just the sound of his breathing, but faster and faster.I even felt the rapid rise and fall of his chest.

"Eh...Master Magician..."

But after a while, Pine's voice came from my ear, I let go of Xavier's hand, took a deep breath, and realized that in such a short period of time, there were many slaves around us .

"This is not a place to talk." I glanced at the slaves surrounding us. They seemed to be very afraid of me. When they saw me looking at them, they couldn't help but lower their heads and slowly backed away.

"Pine." I stopped the fat man: "Is there a quiet place, I need to be alone with him."

Pine froze for a moment, and quickly took out a roll of sheepskin from his sleeve: "My lord magician, as long as you pull this scroll, you can be teleported to a place for you to rest."

I took the scroll and nodded at Pine: "Thank you...can I take him away?"

"Your status is noble, so of course you can dispose of the slaves in the plantation at will." Pine glanced at Xavier who was stunned aside with some worry, but finally lowered his head and said to me respectfully.

I smiled, then reached out and took Xavier's arm as I shook the scroll.

After the strong light passed, Xavier and I were teleported to a wooden house.

The furnishings of the wooden house are very simple, and the surrounding is very quiet.

I breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Xavier beside me.

"How will you be here."

"How will you be here."

As soon as we spoke, we asked the same question.

Xavier smiled softly, and the scars on his cheeks trembled, looking a little scary and a little sad.

I sighed: "That day... after you ran into Pantheon, I fainted. When I woke up, I was rescued by a magician and brought into the northern forest."

"I have no choice but to learn healing magic from her. After I can finally leave the northern forest, I will return to the Eastern Continent."

"The Pantheon Orphanage has been turned into a cemetery where people who died in that fire are buried."

Hearing this, Xavier's eyes suddenly burst into fierce and cruel emotions like flames, but he still looked at me silently, waiting for me to continue.

"I didn't find your tombstone, so I always thought you were alive...but I have no clue where to look for you."

"I didn't expect to see you here, Xavier, why did you become a slave in the plantation in Burrow City? Also, what about your fighting spirit? I can't see your fighting spirit anymore... in the end what's going on."

Xavier stretched out his hands, wiped his face fiercely, then raised his head, looked at me with some sadness and said, "Kroll...you know, I've never been very smart, so I don't I know exactly what's going on... All I know is that I was trafficked here

Human Apocalypse. "

"Selling?"

"Yes, a few years ago, after I woke up from a coma, I was sold to Bro City and became a slave on a plantation. Then... I met Pine here."

"Pyne? What's the matter with Pyne?"

Xavier looked at me with some surprise, and soon, a few helpless smiles appeared on the corners of his mouth.

He sat next to the wooden table, reached out to pick up the water glass, and took a few mouthfuls indiscriminately. The transparent liquid flowed down his chin and wet the front of his shirt.

"You may have forgotten, Pine, who grew up in Pantheon Orphanage just like us." He paused: "It's just that he disappeared before the fire."

After listening to him, I remembered... that's right, fat Pyne, Xavier's former follower.

He disappeared mysteriously when he received the threatening letter at the Panson Orphanage.

After a moment of silence, I thought about it and asked, "Is he also trafficked to Buro City?"

Xavier nodded: "Yes, it's a coincidence, he and I met here again."

"Yeah... Although you and he disappeared at different times, they were both trafficked to a place far away from the Eastern Continent." I frowned. "You don't have any memory about the fire?"

Xavier shook his head: "I was going to save Mage Buzz, but I passed out, and when I woke up, I had already left Pantheon."

Xavier and Pine, two people who disappeared in Pantheon at different times are still alive, and both were trafficked to this place...

Is it a human trafficking organization?No... There are indeed people buried in the cemetery of the Pansen Welfare Institute. That is to say, after the fire, many people did die. If it was a slave trade organization, how could they kill so many people.

The forehead was throbbing, and I felt as if I knew something, but also as if I didn't know anything.

"Kroll, I didn't expect to see you in my lifetime."

Maybe because I was silent for too long, he suddenly said: "You are a magician now... Great, I knew you would become a very powerful person."

There was pure and calm joy in his voice, and I came back to my senses, walked to him and sat down: "I can't feel your fighting spirit fluctuating anymore, you..."

"Well, I was abolished. After all, slaves don't need to learn battle qi... and don't have time to study." He smiled at me, and said simply: "Anyway, my aptitude is not very good. If I abolish it, I will abolish it. .”

Seeing his indifferent appearance, I was suddenly very sad.

"Let me take a look for you first." After finishing speaking, I reached out and held Xavier's hand, and then slowly sent healing elements to his meridians.

The Dou Qi circulation in his body was indeed directly destroyed, and there were still very old wounds all over his body.Today's him, although he looks strong on the outside, is actually riddled with holes inside.

With my current ability, I can only nurse his dilapidated body, but cannot heal him.

But... here is very close to the northern forest, maybe Mage Hebe will have a solution.

With this thought, I calmed down a little, and then let go of his hand: "No matter what, I will take you out of here first."
