In the elevator, Edrich's crying became louder and louder. Under such circumstances, Shado would naturally not take him to the quiet library level, so he asked Talling to send them to the apprentice dormitory level.
.
At this time, the apprentice dormitory floor was also quite quiet, with only some water sounds coming from the direction of the laundry room and the voices of apprentices. Here, at least, you would not be punished by the tower spirit for speaking loudly.
Chateau knelt down and patted Edrich on the shoulder. He didn't know what to say, so he could only comfort him in this way.
I don't know how much time passed, but Edrich's crying finally subsided, leaving only one sob. Only then did he realize that he had been embarrassed in front of outsiders again.
"Xia Duo, I'm sorry for letting you see me like this."
"It's okay, everyone has their own difficulties, and everyone is no exception. Don't worry, I won't laugh at you."
Chateau made a small joke, which also made Edrich calm down a little, and he slowly stood up holding on to the side of the elevator.
"Thank you, Chateau."
"You're welcome. Please wipe your face first."
Upon hearing this, Edrich quickly wiped his face with his sleeves, and finally said with some embarrassment, "I don't know why it happened all of a sudden. I'm sorry for wasting your time."
Just as Sha Duo was about to speak, Ta Ling's mechanical and hollow voice suddenly sounded, "Apprentice Sha Duo, apprentice Edrich, the use of the elevator has exceeded the time limit. Please go to the material application office within three days to pay a fine of 5 gold coins."
cough--
Xia Duo almost spit out a mouthful of old blood. There are still restrictions on the use of the emotional elevator! Edrich was also a little surprised and quickly said sorry. This was the first time he had said sorry today.
"Let's get out of the elevator first." Xia Duo said. He was a little afraid of the tower spirit who insisted on asking for money. Will he have to charge more money if he exceeds the time limit next time?
The two were about to step out of the elevator when a figure suddenly appeared in front of them. Just when Chateau felt that this person looked familiar, Edrich called out, "Uncle Siole! Why are you here?"
When the man turned around, it was none other than Master Siolei, whom Sha Duo had met twice before. He was wondering why everything happened to him today! But he still had to have the proper etiquette -
"Lord Siore!"
"Apprentice Chateau, Edrich, why did you two get together?" Siole's eyes swept over Chateau, and soon he heard the words on Edrich's face.
"Your eyes are red, is someone bullying you? Tell uncle quickly." He turned his head and stared at Xia Duo, "Is it you?"
Xia Duo shook his head quickly. This relationship was not simple. How could he dare to admit it? And Edrich did not want the embarrassing matter to be mentioned again, so he quickly grabbed Master Siole and changed the topic:
"I'm fine. Uncle Siole, you haven't said anything yet, why are you here?"
Siore looked at Xia Duo again, "I'm here to find him."
"Looking for Chateau?" Edrich looked confused. In his impression, his uncle always kept away from strangers, so how could he come to find Chateau? So he asked, "Uncle, do you know him?"
"We know each other, I have something to do with him."
Siole looked at Xia Duo with a somewhat complicated expression, "Yesterday at the Lord's Dinner, my performance may have misunderstood you. Since you are familiar with Edrich, I will tell you directly that I want to buy your clothes."
That magic item."
"Yesterday? Dinner?" Edrich immediately reacted, "Uncle Siole, do you want to force Shado to hand over the magic items? No wonder he wants to sell the magic items today. Let me tell you, how can any apprentice do that?
It’s so easy to sell magic items.”
cough--
As he said this, Shado quickly interrupted Edrich, "Edrich, you misunderstood. Sir Siole did not force me to hand over magic items, nor did he even mention magic items."
Not only Edrich had misunderstood, but Shado also had some misunderstandings. It was just that Siole wanted to invite Shado to join his research laboratory, which made Shado a little uneasy, so he decided to immediately take action with the magic items.
In fact, apart from the wolf statue left behind, he was planning to sell the necklace in the near future.
"Ed, my little Ed, my uncle loved you in vain when you were a child. Is this how you see your uncle?"
Master Siore pretended to be aggrieved and sad, which made Edrich a little at a loss. Just as he was about to apologize, Siore said again, "Don't be so nervous, I'm just joking with you."
Edrich was embarrassed and annoyed. He turned around and was about to enter the elevator, but Siole grabbed him again and said, "Okay, it's uncle's fault. I'll give you a little toy."
With that said, Siore took out a half-foot-tall little puppet from the dimensional bag and put it in Edrich's hand, "Press down the puppet's head and try it!"
Edrich didn't know why, so he tried to press it. The moment he pressed it, the little puppet in his hand started struggling and let out childish shouts:
"Let me go! Let me go!"
Edrich's hands shook in fright, and the little puppet fell to the ground, but the fall did not seem to cause any damage to it, and it stood up unsteadily.
Then, the little puppet walked to Master Siore and pushed Siore's calf, but Siore ignored it. The little puppet came to Sha Duo again and pushed Sha Duo's calf.
And Xia Duo ignored it. Finally, the little puppet staggered to Edrich's side, but did not push his calf. Instead, he sat down on the ground and started crying.
It's actually a bit like the way Edrich was crying just now.
Edrich was already stunned by the little puppet's performance. He didn't care that the little puppet was still crying. He quickly asked his uncle, "What's going on? Is it a new life?"
"Of course! This is the life created by me, the future Archmage Siole."
Master Siore looked proud, but this pride did not last for a few seconds. A thick smoke rose from the ground with a burning smell, and Edrich was so frightened that he jumped two steps away.
And Master Siore screamed strangely, "Ah - my puppet No. 21!"
Xia Duo looked down and saw that the puppet had fallen to the ground, with thick smoke coming out of it. Master Siole picked up the small puppet and put it into the dimensional bag, and then dispersed the thick smoke and burnt smell.
Pretending that nothing had happened, he looked at Xia Duo seriously, "Apprentice, is the magic item you have on your body still for sale?"
Xia Duo was stunned and said quickly, "I won't sell it, but I can lend it to Sir Siole for research. I only need to share some of the research results."
"Haha, little apprentice, you really dare to think about it, but I agreed, but if you don't understand the research results, you don't care about me."
"No problem, thank you Sir Siole."
"Yeah. Bring the things!"
As soon as Xia Duo took out the statue of the forest wolf, Siole snatched it away, "That's it. Yesterday I thought this thing would be helpful to my research. Now it seems to be really good. It turns out to be an unfinished transformation totem."
.”
Just after he finished speaking, he seemed to have thought of something. Before Shado and Edrich could react, they jumped into the elevator and quickly closed the door. Only a slightly distorted voice remained.
"My little Ed, uncle has left beforehand, and I will definitely give you a better toy next time."
