How do I break the team invitation from my old enemy?

Master Sirius is indeed worthy of being a legendary alchemist, and the two dragons of Old Ansair on Siren Island are indeed worthy of being pure-blooded dragons—the effect of those few drops of magical invisibility potion lasted all day !

In other words, the four poor magicians spent a whole day in the smell of potions.

When they got off the carriage on Hall Street in the west of the imperial capital and entered the hotel, the three magicians who exuded the smell of "specialty products in the sea" were all transparent, and no one helped Lin Wei share the strange eyes.

Fortunately, Lin Wei really didn't want to lose someone again, so he covered his whole body with a large cloak and hood, and asked for four rooms.

Although he was proud of his teacher, Daniel couldn't bear the smell, especially when he had developed a sharper nose than ordinary people as an alchemist.

Unfortunately, no matter what method he used, even if Daniel soaked himself in the water, it didn't have any effect.

"I'll have to tell the teacher that it's a good idea to add dragon dung to the next time you make a magic buff potion, it's almost like a magic attack!"

In the evening, the weird smell finally dissipated slowly, and all three of them showed their bodies.

Heidi, who had sneezed countless times throughout the day, was finally interested in seeing the night view of the imperial capital outside the window.

Starting from the hotel where you are, to the entire street, and then to the grand city as far as you can see.

She involuntarily blessed herself with an eagle eye spell, and saw that the bright lights in the city overwhelmed the bright stars in the night sky.

"Wow……"

Heidi said: "You guys are so beautiful here!"

Lin Wei walked to her side, and also stood in front of the window sill, looking at the familiar night scene of the imperial capital: "What does it look like there?"

"Hmm...it's also very beautiful." Heidi tilted her head and thought for a while, then replied, "Our astrology tower is on the snow mountain. At night, except for the tower, there are no lights anywhere, and we can only see the snow mountain and the sky. Stars. Standing on the top of the tower, you will feel surrounded by the sky and stars!"

"Will it snow?"

When mentioning her hometown, Heidi was a little excited, her cheeks flushed slightly: "We have snow for half of the time every year, and that's the most beautiful time."

Lin Wei imagined that distant astrology tower, standing silently in the endless snow-capped mountains amidst the misty snowflakes.And in the tower there are prophets who hide from the world, and how many secrets are buried.

He thought of Adele, the unpredictable teacher on Siren Island, and the news that the astrology tower was "empty" in his previous life, so he couldn't help asking: "Don't you feel deserted?"

"It's not deserted. The people in the tower are very nice, although I don't know what they are studying," Heidi shook her head and said, "It's the same with my mother. I will definitely find her at the top of the tower looking at the stars."

"I don't see many people. Most of them stay in their rooms for several years. It's not the same as yours here," Heidi said, looking at the pedestrians and carriages coming and going on the street. A sincere and heartfelt exclamation: "There are so many people here!"

Lin Wei: "..."

There are few people in the Astrology Tower, and there are no more than a hundred magicians in the Magic Academy. He doesn't know how many people there are in the floating capital, but there is no doubt that it is not as large as the imperial capital.

In that war, it happened between the millions of iron cavalry of the empire and the few but terrifying magicians who lost their homeland and the floating capital.

"You magicians," Lin Wei looked at Heidi's blue and clear eyes, and said, "Each of you can kill many ordinary people without difficulty. Have you ever thought about defeating the empire and becoming the ruler yourself? ?”

"You are also a magician." Heidi stuck out her tongue: "There are so few magicians, how can you manage so many people well? We have a floating city, and there are many unoccupied places to live, so there is no need to fight for it." Site."

"Do the people in the Astrology Tower think so too?"

"I think... my mother seems to have said something about the empire!"

Heidi seemed to be recalling something, but apparently her memory of this was a little fuzzy, and she said vaguely, "I can't remember either... Anyway, it's that magicians have been separated from the mainland for too long."

Isolation for too long?

Lin Wei knew from the records that if the Academy of Magic is the gathering place for magicians who are passionate about exploring magic, then the Astrology Tower is the final destination chosen by the wise.

They used the trajectory of the stars to predict the direction of fate, created the mysterious big prophecy, and collected and recorded the results of magic, and compiled it into the later volume of "Time Handbook"...

A group of people who are completely different from the mages in the academy who can't see anything but magic, have they ever thought about the precarious relationship between the magic world and the mainland?

Lin Wei looked out the window, lost in thought.

As long as it is related to the astrological tower, there is a layer of mystery, which makes people unable to figure it out.

He thought, one day, he had to go and see this mysterious tower.

Seeing that Lin Wei didn't speak, Heidi didn't bring up any more topics. Instead, she put her hands on her chin and looked downstairs with great interest.

Suddenly, a somewhat familiar figure walked out of the hotel and appeared in Heidi's field of vision.

"Huh...Mr. Lyle? It's so late, what is he doing out there?"

Lin Wei followed Heidi's line of sight, and saw the coachman accompanying them all the way—Mr. Lyle, walking through the brightly lit street with his usual slightly hunched posture, and walking eastward at the corner. Disappeared in the huge city.

"Maybe it's to do some things of your own," Lin Wei said, "It's getting late, and it's time for you to go to rest."

"Could it be that you want to buy some things from the imperial capital for your family?" Haiti's eyes lit up: "I also want to buy some things from the mainland for my mother, and I can't see these in our place!"

"Go during the day, you can buy whatever you want." Lin Wei told her.

"Little Duke, you are so kind!"

After seeing the splendid night view of the imperial capital, Miss Fire Magician, who was able to bring back a lot of novelty things tomorrow, went back to her room to sleep contentedly, but Duan Yu and Daniel stayed in their room from the beginning, so Lin Wei was the only one left. The man was still standing by the window, looking in the direction where the coachman disappeared.

Turn this street and head east all the way, crossing the grand central Imperial Square where celebrations and ceremonies are often held, you will arrive at the Eastern District of the Imperial Capital.

What is there in the East End?

It is a scene that is neither busy nor noisy, with carefully planted flowers and trees covering noble mansions and manors.

As the main residence of the Duke of Didis, the first family of the imperial capital, it is undoubtedly located in the quiet, elegant and "aristocratic" East District.

After a long time, Lin Wei lowered the crimson window curtains. The heavy texture of the window curtains concealed the radiant night of the imperial capital, leaving only darkness.

As for the whereabouts of Mr. Flair in the carriage, he felt that he could probably guess.

Instead of thinking about this, it is better to think about why the imperial capital suddenly went out of the city and entered the city for investigation.

At this time in my previous life... did anything special happen?

--------------------------------------

Late at night, in the eastern part of the imperial capital, deep in the Didis family's mansion, in the master's study.

Although the Didis family is a family of martial arts, it does not lack the background that a nobleman should have. The collection of books in the study is very impressive, but at this time the head of the family seems to have no intention of reading.

The Grand Duke of Thedis, who is in his prime, has thick black hair and a sharp face. He has practiced martial arts for many years and is tall. Compared with other pale and weak marquis in the imperial capital, he is less A bit of "elegance" that nobles are proud of is better than a bit more solemn majesty.

He was sitting behind a heavy black desk, listening to the report of the middle-aged man standing in front of the desk, frowning slightly.

When the middle-aged man finished what he had to say, he didn't ask any more questions, and said directly, "Go back."

"Yes, my lord the Duke."

After the middle-aged man finished his salute, he turned and left. His back was slightly hunched, as if he maintained a humble posture all the time.

Duke Didis snorted coldly: "It's still considered that this damn kid is a bit smart, and he didn't come back home directly."

The sound resounded in the empty study room. Apart from the Duke, only his confidant, the Chief Guard, stood on the right side with a blank expression.

The guard said: "Sir, do you need me to go to the West District to protect the young master?"

"What do you know?" His Excellency the Duke glared at the chief guard, "At this time, the Tidis family and this nasty boy should be as clear as possible."

It took a long time for the seriousness on the Duke's face to slowly fade away. Looking at the messy scratches on the desk that looked like the result of children's pranks, he revealed a look of kindness in his eyes.

It's a pity that the duke closed his eyes slowly, so that this trace of love didn't last long, and said: "In the next few days, you stay here and watch carefully, if this kid sneaks in, let him in, don't let others find out... ...If he comes to the door openly, drive him out!"

Although the loyal chief guard didn't know what the Lord Duke was planning, he still replied forcefully: "Yes, my lord."

The Duke stretched out his hand and slowly stroked the messy scratches, his tone seemed to be sighing: "It's hard..."

The author has something to say:

Lin Wei: Father, ⊙v⊙
