The inspector, who wore a yellow cape and represented the symbol of justice in the magic world, left. The onlookers also dispersed, because no one wanted to see the people disappear inexplicably like they had just seen.
No one believed that the people who disappeared, as the mage said, had something to do at home and ran home at the last minute. However, a person disappearing into thin air under the watchful eyes of so many people was something that had never been seen or heard of before. If that was magic, what kind of magic was it? Why wasn't there any magic that triggered the fluctuations caused by the eight powers?
The Warriors' martial arts were traceable. Even those Extraordinaries only mastered physical fitness such as strength, endurance, and recovery that exceeded that of mortals. The essence of martial arts was still the same, and it didn't exceed the scope of what the body could do. Since there were traceable traces, it was naturally possible to find a way to deal with it, and it wasn't impossible to fight against someone stronger.
However, the strangeness of mages was often beyond people's imagination. Since it was unimaginable, there was no way to deal with it. When encountering such people, the best way was to launch a surprise attack and kill them before the opponent could react. But if it couldn't be done, the best way was to avoid them as soon as you saw them, and not treat them as enemies.
The dispersing crowd was precisely for this reason. Besides, there was still a doubt that no one dared to ask, and that was, where did the people who disappeared go? Was it possible for them to come back safely? Before many questions were answered, no one wanted to be the next person to disappear.
Seeing the people hurriedly disperse as if they were afraid of catching the plague, Lin Cai relaxed his expression that had been extremely calm all this time and wiped off a cold sweat.
Fen asked, "Wasn't it quite easy? Why did it seem like there was a big battle? Don't tell me it's the 'I don't want to cause trouble' tactic again, and you're planning to use the turtle tactic or run away. "
Someone said helplessly, "I couldn't afford to offend them before, so I didn't dare to. Although I can afford to offend them now, I don't want to, and there's no need to. And I don't recommend you do that. "
"Why? It's not like we can't win. "
"Whether we can win or not is not in my consideration. What I'm most afraid of is not knowing how to end it. "
"How to end it …" Such a simple question caused Fen to think deeply. On the contrary, the dwarves who had been watching the show had a look of confusion. Jermaine asked, "What's so difficult about ending it? Winning or losing is the end."
"Hehe, it's not that simple. Let me give you an example from my hometown. In my hometown, I have a little brother who follows a big brother. He learns from the big brother and uses the big brother's influence to do some things. After a long time, he thought that he could also have a big tail. Moreover, he was also somewhat dissatisfied with his big brother's attitude of meddling. So when their big brother wasn't paying attention, they pushed him to the ground and slapped him again and again. He hoped to rely on the temporary advantage he displayed to let his big brother admit that he had the strength to be on equal footing with him, and then give him some respect. But what they didn't expect was that Big Brother went crazy because of this and fought with him to the death. In the end, he beat him until he called him daddy. "
"And after that?"
"You've already called me Daddy. Just be obedient and pretend to be a grandson."
The other three dwarves looked thoughtful, but Jermaine didn't use his brain at all. He asked directly, "So what do you want to talk about?"
A certain someone was speechless towards this guy who was a complete mess of the ways of the world. When it came to talking about theories and doing research, this little guy was as good as anything. But Lin still explained, "Many conflicts, perhaps you can choose when to start, but when to end is not in your control. It depends on the other party. Even if you kill the other party, as long as they are human, they have parents, and even wives, husbands, and children. What if these people come to you for revenge? Continue to kill them? And will these people have friends? Perhaps friends won't avenge the dead, but helping a group of living people shouldn't be a big problem. If you kill these people, then they have family and friends. "
"Wow, isn't that endless?"
"That's right. That's why I said that when you want to end it is not in our control. "
"That does sound terrible."
"What do you mean terrible?" The one who spoke was Halloumi, who had been sent to the reception of the Billson District branch of the Society of Sorcerers. She was lucky enough to return when the crowd dispersed and the matter was resolved. As soon as she heard what the dwarf said, she asked impatiently.
Behind her and Kaya, there was a one-eyed girl. The one-eyed race was a relatively rare race in the maze. They were divided into giants and demi-giants. The former were about three to six meters tall, while the latter were slightly taller than the average human. The girl in front of them was about two meters tall, more than a head taller than a certain someone.
Although the size of her eyes was larger than a normal person's, it was not like the eyes of beholder creatures, where the eyes were the face, or even the entire head.
But compared to the girl's single eye, which was right above the bridge of her nose, Lin's gaze involuntarily moved down by thirty centimeters. This was not a one-eyed race, but a cow race. That was a certain someone's first impression.
Even the loose robe could not cover the greatness, which made a certain someone's eyes stare straight. Furthermore, only the two of them, as well as the simple-minded Halloumi, did not notice the blatant act. Everyone else had noticed it. Kaya also noticed that a vein suddenly appeared on a certain Lich's forehead.
Halloumi, on the other hand, introduced the cow … no, the one-eyed girl. "Teacher, this is Mauergit. She's an apprentice from the reception area. She can help us as a guide in the city and a referral to the Chamber of Commerce. " Then she turned to the one-eyed girl and introduced the others. Finally, she pointed at Lin and said, "Mauergit, this is my teacher."
In a society dominated by humans, the one-eyed girl seemed a little uneasy. Such a person would be particularly worried about her etiquette, so when Halloumi finished introducing her teacher, the girl took a few steps forward in a panic, almost touching a certain someone's face … well, the place where it was just the right height.
At such a close distance, the few people present, except for the dwarves, felt a little conflicted. Lin was just about to take a few steps back when Mauergit unexpectedly bowed and said, "Hello, Mr. Mage, I am apprentice Mauergit. It is an honor to serve you." But she did not expect that such an action would make someone fall to the ground in shock.
Kaya also noticed that two veins popped out on her sister's forehead at the same time.
Squinting, she realized that she had scared someone again. The one-eyed girl frantically tried to help someone up. But for some reason, she was scratching and touching him, making him look like a mess. Halloumi and Kaya hurried to help the two of them. It took a while for their teacher to stand up straight again.
At this time, Mauergit was pulled back a few steps and stood awkwardly. From time to time, she would sneak a glance at someone with her big, teary eyes. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. You … don't want me anymore, right? "
"It's okay, it's okay." Lin waved his hand and smiled. Although he was frightened, he was very happy. He was not angry at all and naturally would not blame her. Especially when the one-eyed girl looked at him with teary eyes. Even if he did not feel sympathy, he would not be so cruel.
"Ah! The third one. "Kaya's words were confusing.
But Lin did not think about it. After entering Pilsen City, there were a lot of things to do. And there were a few things that were quite urgent. It was not yet time to take things slowly.
His original plan was to have the two apprentices ask about the location and then look for it themselves. But since this girl seemed to hit it off with Halloumi and asked her to be a guide, he did not hesitate. Lin didn't beat around the bush and said directly, "We need to find a place to stay today. But before that, we have to go to the Chamber of Commerce first. We have a lot of materials to sell. You know the place, right? "
"Yes, yes, I know." The one-eyed girl smiled through her tears and answered excitedly. But apart from the two involved, the others felt that the atmosphere was not good. Even Halloumi noticed it.
On the way to the Chamber of Commerce, the group chatted. But it was still the lively blonde girl who spoke. The others only occasionally responded with a few words.
Although they had chatted at the reception before and felt that the two sides got along quite well. But now that they were chatting, Halloumi discovered a few unexpected things. In addition to widening her eyes, although not as big as the other party, she also made a questioning sound. "Maomao, you said your teacher is Great Wizard Mark Kovacs."
"Yes. I grew up under the guidance of my teacher. "
"Hmm, then why are you an apprentice like us for so long?"
Hearing Halloumi's sigh, Lin wanted to ridicule in his heart: You said you found someone who was in the same boat as you to be a guide. Is there a lack of people in this world who have been magic apprentices all their lives? If you don't work hard, it is not impossible for you to hang on the silver thread until you die.
Facing Molgit's hesitant expression, Halloumi continued to ask: "I remember your teacher is the chairman of Pilsen District. What? You don't have any advantage in learning magic? "
"I studied very hard, but I still couldn't reach my teacher's goal. Every time I went to take the Apprentice Advancement Test, it was either because I was inaccurate or because of some other reason. That was why I couldn't advance in the Apprentice Advancement Test. Also, I often messed up things for no reason. Ah, don't tell me you don't want me because of this. "
Realizing that she exposed her shortcomings, the one-eyed girl excitedly leaned forward to plead. But because her movements were not good, she quickly stuffed the milk in someone's face. At the same time, she said anxiously: "Please don't do this. My teacher has warned me that if I can't play a role, he won't want me anymore. And my living expenses are almost gone, I don't want to starve to death on the side of the road. This job is very important to me, I will do my best to meet your requirements. "
Not to mention that facing this excited girl, Lin had a feeling that he might be suffocated to death. The others were also affected by a certain Lich, the atmosphere was a bit strange.
"Ah! The fourth and fifth. "Kaya said something strange again.
