"Smart gamblers will never make a one-time gamble when placing bets. Because they know that they are gambling, the risk exposure is always opened to the maximum extent."
"There is no shame in being in awe of things you know little about. As long as you live, you will always have the opportunity to learn more about it."
Having said this, the Rat Immortal lowered his hand and tapped the yellowed parchment on the table, and emphasized slightly: "This magic circle is like this, and the monsters are like this... You think I have nothing to do with monsters. You understand the nature of monsters."
How much? How much do you think the school will prevent the demons from entering the campus, and how much do you know about the policymakers at First University?"
It let out a short but harsh laugh, as if to explain his two questions.
The witch frowned, with a cautious expression on her face.
This kind of knowledge involving the secrets of the wizarding world, even as the vice president of the student union, she did not know much about. Not to mention that she was born in the North District of Beta Town - which is recognized as a magical wasteland in the wizarding world.
The Mouse Immortal didn't seem to intend to give detailed answers to its two questions. He changed the topic and returned to its story:
"Strengthening the magic response through the stimulation of demonic energy, thereby improving the success rate of wizards when they advance - this is the main content of the original research topic of my laboratory. Simply put, magic power has a stress-like response to demonic energy, and demonic energy
It can promote multiple transformations of magic power in a short period of time, thereby improving the quality of magic power... until the wizard cannot bear this transformation, and finally accepts the transformation of the demonic energy and becomes a fallen wizard."
"At that time, our research had reached the stage of 'measuring the dose limit of monster energy erosion', that is, arranging different control groups to determine what concentration and dose of monster energy can maximize the magic potential without causing negative effects on wizards.
.”
When mentioning these experiments, a hint of pride and yearning could still be seen on the Rat Immortal's face.
But soon, this brilliance was lost in the development of the story.
"...The accident involving the leak of demonic energy caused the laboratory to enter a level five lockdown. We wore protective clothing and were exposed to the erosion of high concentrations of demonic energy...and could not get out. There was no way to see people or contact with normal wizards outside."
"The whole laboratory became a big 'sandbox'."
"The school has not given up on us. It has arranged for wizards from many other laboratories to help us stabilize our state, control the evil energy erosion process, neutralize the pollutants leaked in the laboratory... and help us contact our families."
"Juice was less than three years old at the time. Although she was very smart, she was still just a child. She couldn't sleep well at night without her mother. So the principal came up with a good idea and made two double-sided mirrors, one of which was hung on Juice.
The child's bedside was stuffed into the laboratory through a special channel."
"Through that mirror, Juice could hear our voices and see our false images; we could also hear her voice and see her appearance. She showed us how to change her own diapers and how to put cereal
Mix it with hot milk and eat it; we tell her Grimm's fairy tales before bed and sing her lullabies."
"You ask why it's a false image? That's because the evil spirit erosion has caused a huge change in the image of everyone in the laboratory, including me...a very bad change. So bad that Juice will never think of the person on the other side of the mirror.
The rotten meat is your father or mother."
"...With the double-sided mirror, we are already very satisfied."
"Juice's holding the small mirror all day long, calling her mom and dad. Every day, she is on the other side of the mirror, and we are on this side of the mirror. Listening to her from babbling to talking about going to school; listening to her whispering
Complaining that the nanny’s cooking was unpalatable, that the old man who taught her magic was an idiot, and that he loved sleeping in water, he listened to her counting the days until we could return home.”
"Because the principal told him that her parents are away from home... and they will be back soon."
"Three years old, four years old, five years old, six years old, seven years old..."
"As she got older, Juice became less and less willing to talk to us in the mirror. She began to feel that we were lying to her, because the 'soon' and 'soon' never came."
"In the winter when I was eight years old, Juice ignored us all winter long."
"We can understand. So we work harder to do experiments, analysis, and calculations. We hope to recover soon and go back to reunite with her as soon as possible."
"When Juice was ten years old, the seal of the laboratory was finally lifted by the school."
"We have also regained our identity as wizards and returned to the sun."
"I held my wife's hand and walked from the dark laboratory to the sun. Looking at the dazzling sun, it looked like Juice's bright smiling face. My wife's hands were very cold and kept shaking."
"The principal is wearing a black robe and is waiting for us outside the laboratory building."
"He came up to me and slapped me."
"Slap me so hard that I was stunned."
"I was crying and laughing at the same time, like a fool, and asked him, 'Where is the juice? Is the get out of class not over yet?'"
"The principal handed me a small box. There was a two-way mirror inside, which was exactly the same as the other mirror my wife was holding."
"My wife turned pale and squeezed my hand until it hurt. She asked again, 'Where's the juice?'"
"The principal didn't say anything."
"I panicked and grabbed the double-sided mirror from my wife's hand and shouted Juice's name loudly."
"The mirror responded quickly."
"Ten-year-old Juice got out of bed, showed a lazy expression as if he hadn't woken up yet, and asked hummingly, 'What are you doing? Today is the weekend, I want to sleep in...'"
"I'm really stupid."
"If what the principal gave us was Juice's mirror, where is Juice now?"
"The principal stood in the sun, and his voice was as biting and cold as the cold winter wind, 'Juice is a very talented child. She is better than both of you. She learned the precise escape technique at the age of five. At the age of eight,
She said she wanted to give you a birthday surprise. I originally thought she just wanted to show off the new spell she had just learned. But unexpectedly, she escaped into the mirror and wanted to travel through the mirror world to find you.'"
"'The world in the mirror is part of the illusory time and space. Even I can easily get lost in it." The principal's voice was much older than before. He spoke very slowly and the content was very cruel. "On your birthday, Juice Escape
Entered the mirror world and never came out.'"
"My wife was originally very weak. After hearing this, she suddenly collapsed. The balance of demonic energy and magic power that she had barely maintained was suddenly broken, and she completely turned into a demon. The principal did not resist and allowed her to attack randomly."
"I didn't resist, but she didn't bother to look at me."
The Rat Immortal started to cry loudly as he spoke.
Muddy tears flowed down its criss-crossing wrinkles. Kolma had never seen the old man in such a sad moment.
Seeing the old wizard crying bitterly, the witch didn't know how to comfort him. She could only stretch out her fingers and gently touch the tips of his claws.
The Rat Immortal sobbed, retracted his paws, and wiped his face randomly:
"I tell you this story not to stop you from doing what you want to do tomorrow. But I want to tell you that there are many critical moments in life and many precious things. We can never master everything, but we can choose to master the right ones.
.”
"Magic is the greatest wonder of the universe."
