Chapter 1618 Group Tasks and Cursed Mirrors (Ticket Request)

Xia De did not stay long with Mr. Edmond, and left before dinner.When he got home, he was still guessing whether the water ghost pheromone on his body would be smelled by Mia.But the fact is that before Shade took another bath, Miya kept avoiding Shade like she was hiding from a stinking salted fish.

The following Saturday, Shad still failed to hear from Miss Apothecary from the Green Lake Hotel.If it wasn't for the fact that she still sent a message telling Xia De to wait, Xia De even thought about trying to find her by himself.

Saturday is the time for the group meeting, so apart from going to the Green Lake Hotel in the morning to inquire about the situation, Shad has no other travel plans.After returning from Green Lake, he spent the whole morning writing his book report at home, took Mia for lunch at noon, and then went to the doctor's clinic.

When he met Priest Augustus, he thought about the unresolved issue of "Angel Fingerbone" in the Green Lake area.The tomb robbers who sold the angel finger bones to Haila Oxenfurt's father were from Mikaela Blast Furnace City, but now Shade has no clue about this, after all, he really knows nothing about the group of tomb robbers.

Now that it is the 12th day of the sowing month, spring can be regarded as completely here.Every week when you meet the rest of the group, everyone's clothing changes.And this afternoon, the doctor, wearing a dark blue long-sleeved shirt, talked with four other members of the group about his recent plan to organize a group event:
"Yes, the five of us acted together. Since Shade joined our group, except for the time at Lakeview Manor, we have rarely carried out group activities."

The doctor distributed the documents in his hands to four people. This is the academy's reward order:
"Don't worry, it's not a big deal, let alone let you go to the Lakeview Manor to attend the banquet. Compared with last year when Shade was not there, the strength of our team has been greatly improved, and it can even be said that the Tobesk region , the strongest group of correspondence ring warlocks. This time I received a bounty related to our region from the academy, and you will definitely be satisfied with the reward."

Shad took the file from the doctor and placed it on the cat who was taking a nap on his lap:
"There will be a steam train next Thursday, and a coffin will be brought from the south. Let us pick it up at the train station at night and protect it before dawn?"

He scanned the document in surprise:
"It says here that the information about the coffin involves top-secret information of the college, and we will only know it on Thursday evening. This is really new, and I don't know what's going on after accepting the task."

"This kind of mission to help the academy pick up and deliver goods is rare, but once it happens, it means a great reward. Of course, the risk should not be underestimated. The mission description says that in addition to the danger of the coffin itself, it must be carefully tracked The Ring Warlock from the coffin."

The doctor briefly explained:
"The coffin seems to have been shipped from overseas. My acquaintances in St. Bailens said that this thing is very important. If it is not a special period, the high-ring warlocks of the academy cannot enter a big city like Tobesk at will, and the academy cannot We don't want the church to know that we've brought something so dangerous to Tobesk, and that's not a task for a correspondence student."

"It doesn't sound like a trivial matter, what will happen to this coffin afterwards?"

Priest Augustus asked curiously.

"We protect it until dawn, and then someone else will take over and transport it out of Tobesk, and then it has nothing to do with us."

The doctor obviously inquired in great detail:

"It's not people from the academy who came to pick up the goods, but high-level ring warlocks from other ring magician groups that cooperate with the academy. As long as we wait until the other party comes, we have nothing to do with anything that happens after that."

"This task sounds pretty good. It reminds me of the task we took to protect the sage-level relic in the winter of 1852. Later, I remembered that I hid the relic on the third floor of the Prophet Association, outside the president's office Only in the suggestion box can we free up our hands to deal with the greedy guys who have been attracted. This time, the coffin should not be able to be hidden.”

Luvia commented, tossing a coin for simple divination:

"Fate told me that it doesn't seem to be very dangerous. The reward for this mission is... cash, credits, and a Keeper-level relic?"

"What relic?"

The blond writer lady asked while looking at the document in her hand, and then turned to the last page:
"Oh, so it was written at the end. Keeper-level relic [Mind Looking Glass]? Doctor, this sounds very suitable for you."

"Yes, this is very important to me. After the mission is over, this relic will belong to me, and I will give you compensation. How about it, do you want to participate?"

The doctor eagerly asked everyone, Xia De thought for a while:
"I shouldn't have anything to do on Thursday night, I can attend."

"Can you estimate how strong the strongest enemy is?"

The old priest did not give an immediate answer, but asked safe questions.

"At most, it is the middle ring. The probability of the high ring is very small, and the academy will give us a batch of supplies to help us complete the mission. The supplies are not exhausted, so there is no need to return them."

said the doctor, and Priest Augustus nodded with a smile:
"Originally, I wanted to attend a dinner party, but I can turn it down. No problem, I will attend, and I will prepare a batch of potions in advance."

"I'm fine. It's good to participate in group activities occasionally, which helps to strengthen the cohesion. After I was promoted to the Central Ring, I haven't dealt with the Ring Warlock battle seriously. This opportunity is very good."

Dorothy also said, as for Luvia, of course she said she was fine.

"Well, more specific information will be given to you later. Everyone gather at my place next Thursday afternoon, and then go to the Tobesk train station together. Yes, it is the one where Shad was shot last summer. street."

"Doctor, you can actually use other landmarks to illustrate the location."

Xia De, who touched Little Mia, said helplessly.

In the group meeting this afternoon, apart from this incident, the doctor mentioned the summer exam week as usual.

Although it seems that the winter exam week has not passed, it is actually the middle of April.According to the tradition of taking summer exams in July and August every year, more than half of the first half of the school year has passed.

"Has it been that long?"

Luvia asked in surprise:

"I thought it was the beginning of the school year."

"You don't always take the time to review until June."

The blue-eyed psychiatrist shook his head:

"Take care of those electives, and start working on your closing paper. Our group did well last winter, and I don't want someone to say they might fail after the summer exams. But, that's two Three months later, there is nothing serious about the academy recently, but during the period of the assisted investigation of the Ring Riding Competition, the notice of the foreign ring warlocks visiting the local area has just been sent, and I don't know what the academy wants to investigate."

"Probably the Mirror Society."

said Priest Augustus, wiping his pipe, and the doctor asked again:
"Priest, after the members of the Mirror Association were arrested, has [Faceless Man] been taken into custody?"

"No, this humanoid relic left the local area on its own initiative and is now wandering in the wild. It should complete self-containment soon. This has nothing to do with us."

It was Luvia who gave the answer:
"However, there is no news about another [If], which is suspected to be an unknowable (level 0) relic. [If] came to this city by himself, and has nothing to do with the Mirror Association, and I don't know where it is now."

"The unknowable relic is too far away from us, let's talk about the Mirror Association. Speaking of which, I still have a past with them."

The doctor said something surprising in a chatty tone.Priest Augustus stopped cleaning his pipe, Luvia put down the coins in her hand, Dorothy, who was leaning on the sofa, sat up straight, and Xia De also took his hands away from Mia.

The doctor didn't expect everyone to have such a big reaction, he asked suspiciously:
"Didn't I mention it before?"

"No."

The blond female writer with the second highest seniority in the group shook her head:

"That should be before I joined the group? I haven't heard you mention it either."

"Doctor, tell us what that is."

Xia De then urged:
"Maybe we will meet people from the Mirror Association and tell us your story and theirs."

"Yes, Bill, let's hear your story too."

Priest Augustus also urged.

So Bill Schneider nodded, and said rather sadly:
"It was probably more than ten years ago. I don't remember the exact time. At that time, I went to deal with a very dangerous ancient creature."

He winked at Shad, apparently one of the demons the Doctor hunted down and devoured in the past.

"It's not in the local area, it's in a small town in the northeast of Delarion. At that time, the Mirror Association also took a fancy to that dangerous ancient evil, but unlike me wanting to kill it, the Mirror Association wanted to seal it with a mirror. "

The doctor also explained to everyone about the Mirror Association by the way:

"They have an angel-level (level 1) relic ancient mirror [Mirror of the Curse of Fasha]. That mirror can seal non-humanoid creatures, and use the mirror to release their mirror images to fight. It is a very practical relic. Mirror The association relies on the mirrors of the Thirteenth Ring and this mirror to be able to operate in the old continent as an illegal ring warlock organization for a long time in such a peaceful age. Otherwise, they will be forced to flee to the New World like the 【Blood Spirit School】 gone."

The ability of this mirror made Xia De think of the card he brought out from [Past World·Sixth Epoch].

"Doctor, the enemies you encountered back then were strong, right?"

Dorothy asked with great interest, and the doctor nodded:

"Needless to say, I met a high ring, two middle ring warlocks, and a pair of twin brothers with strange abilities in the small town."

Hearing "twins", Xia De instinctively paid attention.
