The team that had broken down on the side of the road hesitated for a moment, and soon two boys and a girl came out and asked to go with Lin Sheng's team.
Lin Sheng agreed.
Only then did the three of them get into the carriage.
The spacious carriage was more than enough to accommodate more than a dozen people.
Seeing that there was an outsider around, Lin Sheng willed the Mage's Hand to put away the spell book, the automatons, and other spell-related items.
It seemed troublesome, but for him, it was just a thought.
After joining the Divine Wisdom Society, he had received a lot of information on arcane spells, which made his progress in arcane spells far beyond his own imagination.
The rigor of this world's knowledge research deeply fascinated Lin Sheng. In particular, arcane spells, a system that unearthed the essence of the world's space-time laws, was of unprecedented help to him.
"Thank you very much for giving us a ride. Mr. Malfaria. "
The leading boy respectfully bowed to Lin Sheng with a smile to express his gratitude.
Lin Sheng casually sized up the three of them.
The two boys looked to be about thirteen or fourteen years old, about the same age as him. Their looks were average, neither handsome nor ugly. Their words and actions were well-educated.
Their gait revealed a steady posture that they had undergone combat training.
The remaining girl, on the other hand, seemed to have a good temper and was always smiling. Her development was a bit like Lido's back then, but her chest was a bit too big.
Although the three of them wore different clothes, they all wore the same academy's badge.
"You're students of the Phoenix Knight Academy?" Lin Sheng recognized the school behind the badge.
As a Mage, being knowledgeable was the foundation.
A scholar might not necessarily be a Mage, but a Mage would definitely be a scholar.
No matter which faction he belonged to.
"You know? Yes, we're freshmen of the Phoenix Knight Academy, and we've just started our first year of study. Because this place is close to home, we go home once a year. "
The boy replied with a slightly proud smile.
So, Lin Sheng began to chat with them out of boredom.
As they chatted, he suddenly thought of his sister, Shaweier, who was also studying abroad. He wondered how she was doing. It was said that she would graduate from the capital this year.
The convoy continued forward, and in the blink of an eye, more than an hour had passed.
Most of the time, it was Lin Sheng asking questions, while the leader of the group, Kretan, kept answering questions.
As they chatted, they somehow ended up talking about the temple.
In Welly, the main shrines for worship were the Forest Shrine and the Hunt Shrine.
The former worshipped the Lady of the Forest, who was the main god that the higher-ups of the fortress worshipped.
As for the hunting ladies, they were worshipped by the people more often.
"Speaking of which, I've heard my father mention that the Temple of Light seems to be planning to enter Villey. I wonder if it's true," the only girl suddenly said as they started chatting.
"It should be true, but I heard that it's not just the Brilliance Shrine. The Terrene Shrine and the Tempest Shrine are also planning to come to Welly," another boy added.
"So many?"
"That's right. It's said that they've discovered that there's some trouble at Fort Cuijing, so they've sent a bishop to guard it."
As they chatted, Lin Sheng maintained the smile on his face, giving off a gentle and tranquil aura.
However, he heard that several shrines were coming at the same time, and that they were heading straight for his hometown.
This made Lin Sheng shiver involuntarily.
It was obvious that these priests, who were proficient in divination spells, must have received instructions from some existence to gather at Villey.
Either that, or the Violent Beast Tide behind Fort Cuijing was about to erupt again. Or they were coming for him.
The convoy quickly crossed the border of the territory, and they saw the border guard towers on both sides of the road.
The wild pigeons that the soldiers of Villey reared on the guard towers were flying everywhere. It was quite a scene.
"Wow, Mr. Malfaria, you can read this kind of book? It's written in a foreign language. You can read it? Ah, sorry, I was being rude. "
The girl with the cute smile suddenly saw the foreign language book that Lin Sheng had placed at the side, and immediately exclaimed in a low voice.
"Hmm, I can read it a little. I'm just flipping through it to pass the time, "Lin Sheng replied casually.
After that, the three youths became more and more curious about Lin Sheng, and they politely asked him about all sorts of details.
Not long after, the three of them expressed their admiration for Lin Sheng's erudition. After learning that Lin Sheng would be living in Villey, the three of them requested to visit Lin Sheng in the future.
Lin Sheng agreed.
Before the sky completely darkened, the convoy finally arrived at the village in the hinterland of Villey.
The three of them got off the carriage and left quickly on their horses.
Lin Sheng directed the convoy to follow the road towards Fort Cuijing.
When they reached the fort, the gates were already wide open. Earl Villey and his wife, Lin Wei, were already standing at the gates, smiling as they waited for Lin Sheng's return.
Lin Sheng got off the carriage and went up to the two of them to give them a hug.
"We agreed to come back together. Your sister, Shaweier, is already here. She's changed a lot. You should talk to her more when the time comes. "Earl Villey patted his son's shoulder and sighed.
If he didn't know that Benjamin was going to be a magus, people would think that he was going to be a coward.
It was too exaggerated.
It was fine sitting in the carriage, but now that he stood up … he was a head taller than him, and a whole size bigger. Just by standing there, he gave people a slight visual impact.
"Also, your brother finally passed the Rank Four Warrior Assessment this year. He finally has the qualifications to take over my position. "Earl Villey sighed." If you have nothing else to do, help your brother out. "
"Yes, I will."
The group brought Lin Sheng back home.
There was no grand welcome, no noisy congratulations, just a quiet and gentle welcome from his family.
"By the way, I heard that a lot of other Temples have come and want to set up a branch here?" Lin Sheng asked softly as he sat in the carriage back home.
"That's true. They've all come to visit you and are very interested in you. They hope that when you come back, you can meet the person in charge." When Earl Villey said this, his expression was a little proud, but also a little doubtful.
Logically speaking, Lin Sheng, a Rank Six magus, should not have received such a great welcome. Even if he was talented and had great qualifications, he should not have attracted so much attention from the Temples.
But when Lin Sheng heard this, he quickly understood.
This was a sign that the Temples might be suspicious of him. These people wanted to take the opportunity to test him.
But because of the Lanying Tower case, they did not dare to act recklessly and only investigated in secret.
There was no such thing as an impenetrable wall in the world. Lin Sheng did not believe that with so many Temples, they would not be able to find any clues.
So looking at it this way, their intentions were very clear.
The gods might really be watching him … but he did not know what level this attention was at.
