"Why, no one is talking?" Wein jumped down from the pipe, landed firmly, and patted the dust on his body.
Leon: "..."
Carlson: "..."
James: "..."
Isaac: "..."
Why are you here?!
This was probably the sentiment of everyone present except for Wein. Even Isaac, although he guessed that this guy would come, didn't expect that he was already waiting on the pipe above.
The one who reacted the fastest was Carlson: "This is really... surprising, Mr. Noyes."
Wei Yin was unfazed: "Thank you."
After the initial surprise, Leon breathed a sigh of relief and immediately retreated behind Wein: "What's the matter with you? When did you come?"
"Well... it was a long time ago. I witnessed the whole process of you killing that weirdo." Wein touched his chin, "Ah, shouldn't I give you some praise? You did a great job?"
"...Do you have to make fun of me whenever you show up?"
Carlson narrowed his eyes: "Mr. Noyes, I have to say that you exceeded my expectations. It seems that my little tricks did not trouble you at all."
"That's true."
Carlson: "..."
When Liang raised his eyebrows, didn't he usually answer something like "Your methods are very clever, but my skills are better"? What was he doing with "that's true"?
Carlson coughed and tried to maintain the awkward atmosphere of the conversation: "To be honest, I really want to know why you let your assistant be taken away by me. You obviously have the ability to stop it."
Wein shook his finger: "First of all, you misunderstood. You are a high-level wizard, but I am not. Why are you so sure that I can stop you?"
"Aren't you a high-level extraordinary person?"
Leon and Carlson said in unison.
"No." Wein said very calmly, "Secondly, I let him be captured by you because I was also curious about why you paid so much attention to him and wanted to see where my assistant has wonderful value."
"Well, the 'Witch King' and Krebs Abbey, these are valuable clues. Can you provide more information?"
Carlson kept a polite smile: "If it was just me and Mr. Li, then I would be happy to tell everything I know. After all, I would take him away. But now that you are involved, I am afraid I won't be able to
The law is so generous."
Wayne turned to Leon and shrugged: "It seems that I came at the wrong time."
Leon: "...No, you came at just the right time."
If Carlson reveals more information about the original owner, Leon doesn't know what will happen. Anyway, his head is still a little aching.
"In short, it seems that our talks can only end here." Carlson said, "My identity in Caspars has been exposed, and if I stay any longer, I will only be surrounded and suppressed by official Beyonders. Although Caspars
There are only two high-level officials, but it’s quite tricky to face them both at once.”
Wein raised his eyebrows: "As far as I know, the senior governor and archbishop of Caspars are both level five extraordinary people. If you can fight against them both at once without falling into a disadvantage, it seems that you have already touched the demigod."
It’s the threshold of the next level.”
"Just 'touching the threshold' is not enough." Carlson said with a far-reaching gaze, "Demigod, haha, if you want to welcome such a great promotion, you must be well prepared."
"Is he also a part of your preparation?" Wein gave a thumbs up to Leon.
"I'm not sure, but it might be possible. It's just that I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to seize this opportunity. You claim to be not a high-level wizard, and you know that I am a high-level wizard, but you still dare to come alone. You must have a trump card.
Bar?"
Leon noticed that Isaac was shaking his tail in his arms. Could it be that it was Wein's trump card?
"Well, the Archbishop is also coming here." Carlson made no special moves, but had already learned about the situation outside. "It seems that I have no choice but to evacuate. I have to say, I still feel a little regretful."
Wei Yin waved his hand: "Let's go slowly."
Carlson took a step back. His body quickly disintegrated and turned into black mist, which spread along the stairs. Soon, this black mist disappeared from the eyes of Leon and others.
"After transforming your body into this kind of black mist, you really can't underestimate these alchemists." Wein said.
"What?"
"To put it simply, the black mist is Carlson's true form. His human form is a disguise formed by the condensed black mist and some illusion and transformation spells."
"Is this... so magical?" Leon thought it was Carlson's ability to transform into black mist, but Wein told him that this black mist was Carlson's true form.
"It seems that potion refining is actually just Professor Mansis' side job. His real expertise is in the field of life refining." Wein touched his chin, "Master Raphael's students... and the information I collected
It’s consistent.”
Leon approached Wein: "Speaking of which, did you already know that Professor Mensis had a problem?"
"I can't say that I've known it for a long time. I just collected a lot of information about the 'Professor' who is in charge of the place when I was investigating the 'Farsighted School' in the Eastern Exile. And during the past few days of investigation, it happened that
It was found that Carlson Mensis met many characteristics of 'Professor'. Even in the alchemist circle, the code name used is 'Professor' - although it is undeniable that this code name is not uncommon." Wein said, "
Now that things have happened, it has been proven that my speculation was correct, Carlson Mensis is the head of the Eastern Exile Branch of the 'Foresight School'."
Liang twitched his lips: "These things... you haven't told me yet..."
"I tell you that you can't help. Instead, you will show your weakness in front of Professor Mensis because you are too nervous, so it is better to leave you confused." Wein snapped his fingers, "As he just said.
, the Suppressing Bureau responsible for cleaning up the battlefield is about to arrive, we still have to consider how to deal with this gentleman."
What Vin was talking about was naturally James, who barely stood up after Carlson left.
