Holy Institution

Dilling and Hyde got up early in the morning and bid farewell to the mayor who came in a hurry.

The mayor spent most of the night with the townspeople last night in order to explain who was grilling in the woods. When he came, his eyes were still swollen, and he always squinted when he looked at people, "Is it true that I will go back so soon? ?In fact, the wines in our town are really good.”

Di Lin smiled and said, "I'm going back to the academy, and I will try it next time I have the chance."

The mayor regretted: "Well, if you insist. Then Vincent..."

Dilling said, "I think it was just a small mistake."

The mayor still wanted to keep him, but Dilling and Hyde had already stepped into the carriage.

As soon as he got in the car, Heiden automatically found a comfortable position to lean against.The sunlight outside the window fell on his golden hair, which was extremely dazzling.

"Master Baseko?...Master Baseko!" the mayor shouted suddenly, and then pulled Dilling's attention back.He hastily handed over the wine in his hand, "Be careful."

"The college stipulates that you can't drink alcohol." Dilling deliberately pouted his lips in the direction of Heidein, and whispered, "When I'm on vacation, my father and I will come to taste it together."

Hearing that the Duke of Baseco would come in person, the mayor immediately withdrew his wine and said with a smile on his face: "Okay, okay. You have a good journey."

The door closed and the wheels rolled slowly.

Dilling twisted left and right on the seat for a long time before finally finding a comfortable position and settling down.

The scenery flew by.

Hyde's face was sometimes sunny and sometimes cloudy.

After about an hour, Dilling suddenly woke up.I twisted desperately just now, just to find a comfortable position where I could see him at a glance.

This realization made Dilling break out in a cold sweat.

The smile of Hydein before he left the hut last night still remained in his mind, the more he didn't think about it, the clearer the picture became.The memory seemed to be possessed, no matter how he adjusted his emotions and thoughts, that smile was always dangling in front of his eyes.

"What are you laughing at?" Hyde asked lazily.

Di Lin came back to his senses and found that the other party was looking at him.

The half-closed eyes were obviously sleepy, and because of the light and angle, the blue eyes were not as clear and bright as usual, but hazy, as if separated by a layer of fog.

Dilling's chest was pounding, but his face remained very calm, "I'm thinking about fun things about my childhood."

"Oh? Talk about having fun."

Dilling quickly improvised one, "A long time ago."

"Is it a childhood fun?"

"...About five or six years ago."

"It's been a long time."

Di Lin was used to his sarcasm, but what was rare was that he didn't feel disgusted this time. Instead, he felt a kind of tenderness flowing between the lines, and his heart almost softened into dough.He had to take a deep breath to calm his heartbeat. "Uncle Bob's distant cousin lived in my house for a while. During that time, Harry chased him around every day. Once he almost jumped on Uncle Bob's back." Seeing that Hyde was indifferent, he explained, "Harry is my old dog."

"now what?"

"Passed away."

"Oh." Heiden paused, "Where is the joke in the story?"

Dilling said: "At that time, it was a scene of flying chickens and dogs jumping."

"Compared to the scene you mentioned, I think it's more funny when you compare that distant cousin to a chicken." Heiden slowly closed his eyes, "Wake me up in Joseph City."

"Okay." Dilling took out the blanket from the space bag and covered him.

"How long has it been since you washed this blanket?" Hyde asked with his eyes closed.

Dilling showed embarrassment, "Never washed it." He waited for Hyde to throw the blanket over in a rage.

But Heiden just pulled the blanket down, keeping it from getting too close to his face.

The carriage was driving smoothly on the road to Joseph City.

When Hyde opened his eyes again, the surroundings were completely dark.The only sound in the car was his own breathing.

He sat up slowly, unable to hide his surprise.

Although the battle with Wen Sen had consumed a lot of mental energy, it was not to the point where he couldn't find out even if the people around him left.He never imagined that one day he would sleep so deeply, so deep that his mental power was completely relaxed.

The door was gently opened, and Di Lin came in with a chill in his body.

There was also a faint smell of meat that came in with him.

"What did you buy?" Heiden asked.

"Are you awake?" Dilling handed him the hamburger in his hand, "I'll buy it again."

Heiden took the hamburger, "You only bought one?"

"I don't know when you wake up, so I want to buy it after you wake up. You can eat it while it's hot." Dilling said, turned around and got out of the car again.

Hyde took a bite of the burger.

The soft taste soothed his restless heart.He ate bite by bite in the dark.

When Dilling came back, only the last bite of the burger was left.

"I don't seem to be full." Hyde put the last bite into his mouth.

Dilling handed him the hamburger in his hand and got into the car.

"You don't want to eat?" Hyde held the hamburger.

Di Lin raised his other hand and said with a smile, "I was afraid you wouldn't have enough to eat, so I bought an extra one."

Hyde: "..." I have to say that Dilling is very experienced in taking care of people.

After eating the hamburger, Dilling and the driver settled the fare, including the delay fee for occupying the place for no reason.

Hyde didn't ask him why he didn't wake himself up, but silently walked towards the magic circle.

After paying the bill, Dilling trotted to follow him.

Considering the special function of the magic circle, most of the magic circles in the city are guarded by soldiers to prevent the enemy from using them to send spies.After they showed their identity certificates, they returned to Borg City safely.

Because Hyde was mentally damaged, Dilling rested at home for three days in the name of visiting friends, until Andre returned from the palace in a hurry and told him a shocking news.

"Langzan is going to destroy the country."

Di Lin was startled, and it took him a while to digest the news, "Which country is attacking?"

"There is no country, it is Dongguimo." Andre said.

Like the Nightmare Forest, East and West Desert is the most dangerous and mysterious place in Dream Continent.But for a long time, Dongguimo did not attract the attention of the entire continent like the Nightmare Forest.It is invisible.No one would run into it without thinking, and it was peaceful and quiet.

So when Andre said that Dong Guimo was going to kill Langzan, he didn't turn his mind at all.

"How?" he asked.

Andre's face was serious, "Swallow."

This is really a terrible thing.

Wars and overthrows between countries are just man-made disasters.In the end, it is people who occupy the land.But this time is different. The yellow sand in the sky is encroaching on the living environment of human beings step by step, making everyone powerless.

Di Lin suddenly remembered Neia's inexplicable request and hesitant expression.Now, everything has an answer.

If Dong Guimo really wanted to devour Langzan, then it would be understandable why Neia kept this news secret.Because at this time, all of Langzan's national power must be transferred to resist Dongguimo, and the guards in other places must be vulnerable.As long as other countries send out a small force, they can be defeated like a mountain.

Direct plunder between countries often does not require excuses or face.

"How did the news get out?" He didn't believe that Longzan would announce it by himself.If it is doomed to be unable to resist Dongguimo, it will only arouse the determination of other countries to take advantage of the fire.

Andre said: "The council of St. Padres School of Magic has approved Langzan's request for assistance, and has dispatched a hundred magicians to support them."

Dilling was stunned.After the competition, all the teachers and students were hastily recruited back by the academy, presumably for this reason.If it wasn't for the damage to his mental strength, Heidein would probably be in Longzan now.

"I'll tell the instructor." Dilling turned around and ran to Heidein's guest room.

Andre frowned, and finally resisted the desire to keep him.

The next day, Dilling and Hydein set off for St. Padres.

Andre did not come to see him off because he was called into the palace by the emperor.Only Bob came to see him off.

Their itinerary was to teleport directly from the magic circle in Borg City to the city of Mirage Lake, which is the closest to Gulan, and then go back by boat.Preliminary estimates are that it will arrive around midnight today.

Before Dilling left, Bob exhorted in a very low voice: "Although the Duke didn't show it, I know he is very worried about the young master."

Dilling was taken aback.

"If possible, the young master should stay at the academy with peace of mind." Bob expressed implicitly.

Dilling immediately understood what he meant.Father was probably worried that he would join Longzan's support army.Although he really wanted to, but he had self-knowledge, it was absolutely impossible for a freshman like him to be picked.

He smiled and said his thoughts, and Bob was slightly relieved.

From the magic circle to the carriage, from the carriage to the boat, they changed three means of transportation in a row, and finally returned to St. Padres College before dawn the next day.

Seeing that Hyde's face was not looking good, Dilling squatted down and asked to carry him back.

Hyde was weak in limbs due to seasickness, and he did not shirk, and lay down skillfully on the ground.

"Don't get lost." He warned worriedly.

"...Okay." Di Lin looked up at the moon with difficulty.

But half an hour later, Heiden still said helplessly: "A 45-degree angle to the right, 100 meters."

……

After finally sending Hyde back, Dilling walked slowly back to his dormitory.

Opening the door of the room, the first ray of sunlight in the morning has already shone between the beds.

Soso and Raymond slept peacefully on their respective two beds.

The long-lost sense of familiarity welled up in his heart, and Di Lin was relieved.

Finally, life returned to its original track.
