Chapter 46: Contingency.
Charlotte and Meryl were worried at this time, but they could not inform Siwei. They went back to their rooms helplessly, praying that things would not slide to the worst.
"Knock, knock!" The dull knock echoed in the corridor, but there was no response.
Edward dug out the spare key and inserted it into Yang"s bedroom door. The door was pushed open and there was no one in it.
"I"m not lying, Mr Edward! There must be some conspiracy among them. " Confirmed his innocence, Ed excitedly shouted.
There was a flash of cold light in Edward"s eyes. He did not respond to Ed"s call and went to Siwei"s bedroom.
"Knock, knock!" The dull voice rang again, Ed"s face was full of excitement. He was eager to see Siwei"s absence.
As a result, Yang and Siwei must have left the tower!
This is the iron law of the tower! All apprentices are absolutely not allowed to leave the tower!
He has already imagined the miserable situation when Yang and Siwei were interrogated and punished by Mentor Gatling!
However, at this moment, the door opened from the inside.
Siwei pushed open the door and asked puzzled, "Mr Edward? What can I do for you? "
Through the crack of the door, with the faint yellow magic light of the small room, Yang was sitting at the square table, his right hand holding his chin, in meditation, in front of him with a pair of chessboard and all kinds of pieces, obviously two people were just staying up late playing chess.
The two teacups on the table are still smoking, which indicates the temperature of them.
"It"s nothing, it"s already very late, go to bed early!" Edward suppressed a word for a long time.
"Okay, we"ll finish this game right away!" Siwei smiled politely: "But Yang will leave the tower soon. I don"t know how long it will take to meet again. I still hope to play more wonderful chess games with him!"
As if he didn"t see Ed beside Edward, Siwei closed the dormitory door.
Yang heaved a sigh of relief and said with an communication: "It was really a close call. Fortunately, you found out in time what was wrong!"
When pressed, the mechanism installed on the tower"s live point model can not only eliminate the live point, but also give Siwei an alarm. At this time, Xiwei and Yang had just returned to the bottom of the tower. Siwei, who had "merged into the shadow", took Yang to the window of his room and quickly forged the scene of playing chess.
The hot water in the two cups was heated by Siwei in the palm, which took less than half a minute.
"How do you explain your words?" Edward"s face was sullen as water, and he was not angry at himself.
"I really can swear! I saw it with my own eyes! " Ed is already in a cold sweat. He doesn"t know why he screwed up.
Edward thought for a moment, then slowly began: "Tomorrow morning, I will arrange for you to meet Mentor Gatling! Let him verify whether you are lying! Now, go to sleep first! "
"Thank you very much! I believe that the great Mentor Gatling will definitely expose Siwei"s tricks and prove my loyalty and reliability! " Ed was grateful to tears.
"I didn"t think it would be bad in Ed"s hands. This is also my thoughtlessness. My magic pet is not in the tower, and Ed just didn"t wear his magic robe ..." Siwei said while drinking tea.
"What will happen to this matter?" Yang asked.
"The key is to see how Gatling thinks! If he wants to take advantage of the topic, there will always be a way. Our actions have been exposed, although no evidence has been found for them! However, the old man is always suspicious. With Gatling"s nature, I"m afraid he won"t let go lightly! Besides, my model of the tower is still in the laboratory, and it has already fallen into Edward"s hands, hasn"t it? With Gatling"s magic skills, it won"t take long to discover the secret. " Siwei"s brain was clear at this time, and the deduction of things was no different.
After watching Ed walk back to the dormitory, Edward has returned to Siwei"s laboratory, incarnating sophisticated hunters and shrewd detectives, collecting all suspicious objects in the laboratory, including, of course, the tower model made of crystal.
"What should we do then?" Yang is a little anxious.
"I haven"t prepared enough! We still need to wait! It is late at night, Edward will not necessarily disturb Gatling"s rest! But there is no doubt that we must start first, just set it at dawn! What you have to do now is to take the time to meditate and restore magic! "
The time Siwei waited for was undoubtedly when he returned with no arcane crystal.
Yang has just experimented with arcane missile spell on the beach and has consumed his whole body magic. Knowing the urgency of the situation, he closed his eyes and began to meditate.
After some noise, the tower fell into silence again.
Siwei communicated with Meryl and Charlotte respectively through the communication technique. First, he told them the current situation and calmed the worried girl. Then he told them that the uprising must be launched ahead of time.
After forcing the two girls to have routine meditation to restore the magic consumed during the day, Siwei leaned on the window sill and looked at the dark and calm night outside, but his mind was already methodically deducing the possible situation and how to arrange the uprising to overthrow the dark Magician Gatling, which was about to erupt at dawn.
When time pa.s.sed by another magic, a figure suddenly jumped in from the window and jumped into Siwei"s arms: "Lord Siwei, this time it"s a mission!"
One by one, they rolled onto the bed, stretched out their right front paws and dug into the soft fur on their chests, one, two, three ...
After a while, seven or eight arcane crystals of different sizes fell onto the soft quilt.
The seven or eight arcane crystals are the size of fists and the small ones are the size of table tennis. In terms of weight, it has reached half a month"s output of the arcane crystal mine on the island. After zero"s selection, these minerals were dug out one by one from the ground and then hidden in her body. These arcane crystals are stacked together, almost as big as zero whole body.
Touching the soft hair lovingly, Siwei said gratefully, "It"s really hard for you, my little baby!"
"Come on, down with Gatling the big devil king! The brave will win! Lord Siwei will win! " Zero stood up, her two furry front paws held high, a face of solemn and mighty expression.
Siwei corners of the mouth lifted, the cabin"s depressed and heavy atmosphere dissipated with the wind.
At this time, the other three members of the Order of the Phoenix were all meditating, and Siwei did not waste time and began to process arcane crystals.
Arcane crystal is the most suitable magic storage crystal on the land of Oren. The pieces of arcane crystal found here are of very high purity. The powerful magic contained in them can be clearly perceived by Siwek.
If the magic can be stimulated, even if the lowest utilization rate is used, it can also cause an energy burst equivalent to about 200 to 500 magic.
This is equivalent to the power of a three-ring spell. I don"t know which is more effective than the most famous fireball in the three-ring spell.
However, it is undoubtedly very dangerous to draw energy from this arcane crystal. The purity of the energy contained in it is far higher than that of turquoise and Canlang stones used by Siwei. The energy drawn is extremely strong and pure, which puts a lot of pressure on users.
This is equivalent to holding a powerful bomb in one"s hand. An inadvertent weapon is not only a secret weapon to defeat the enemy, but also a tool to bury oneself.
