After writing the note, Allen carefully pressed it under the coffee cup and began today's research.
Looking at the stars in the sky, he felt that his work efficiency had dropped significantly. He missed Merlins' "mental focus" magic bread more and more.
"Sorry, Mr. Mullins," he laughed to himself and complained in his heart, "for my exams and my future, I have to get more wool from you."
Time flies.
In the blink of an eye, the new moon sets in the west and the sun rises.
Allen packed up his things and left the astronomy tower to continue another day of classes.
…………
University of Cambridge, restaurant.
"Mr. Linn, in recent days, a legendary mage has been visiting Cambridge University late at night. Have you heard anything about it?"
The next day, when Edward Lynn, the president of the University of Cambridge, invited Mullins to have lunch again, Mullins said solemnly.
"Legendary mage?" Upon hearing the news, Principal Lin En raised his eyebrows slightly. Although he looked calm and composed on the outside, there was still worry in the depths of his pupils.
As we all know, legendary mages are synonymous with powerful power. If a legendary magic happens at random, the entire Cambridge University will be razed to the ground.
Fortunately, most of the legendary mages nowadays have gone through the plane crystal wall to explore the endless planes. Otherwise, Merlins might not necessarily be the master of the mage tower.
"That's right," Merlins nodded solemnly, "When I was doing research on the top of the astronomical tower, I felt his breath."
Of course, Merlins would not say anything about the legendary mage stealing his bread.
Principal Lin En's face suddenly became serious.
"I will handle this matter," he said calmly, "Even a legendary mage cannot do whatever he wants at Cambridge University."
"Don't anger him," Merlins reminded. "Legendary mages are the controllers of the rules. They are far more terrifying than you think... Moreover, I personally think that he should have no ill intentions towards us."
As he spoke, he thought of the boundless and irresistible darkness when he suffered the backlash of prophecy.
Your Excellency...has he seen his apology letter?
"I have my own sense of discretion." Principal Lin En said expressionlessly.
"By the way, Mr. Lynn, I also want to ask you for a favor," Merlins pondered for a moment, then changed the subject and said, "In your school, there should be a student named Alan York! I want to know more about him.
details."
"Alan York? The second son of the Earl of Kent?" Principal Linn frowned slightly, wondering why the aloof Master Mage Tower would notice an underachiever who was almost expelled from school.
"Exactly," Merlins nodded affirmatively, "He has a good talent for magic, and I want to accept him as a student. But before that, I also want to know about his various abilities, personality, etc. For a magician,
Said, sometimes, character is more important than talent."
Speaking of this, Merlins seemed to recall something unpleasant, and a trace of complicated emotions flashed in his eyes.
Although he was deeply confused by Mullins' decision, Principal Lynn still confidently agreed: "Don't worry, Mr. Mullins. I can understand your thoughts. I will give you the most comprehensive and detailed information when we meet next time."
information.”
…………
After Merlins left, Principal Lynn returned to his office. Obviously, to this day, the uninvited "legendary mage" still makes him deeply worried.
Perhaps in the eyes of everyone, Edward Lynn, who is only 23 years old, is simply too young. I am afraid that many students are older than him.
But no one has ever questioned his qualifications to serve as principal.
In addition to being the Chancellor of the University of Cambridge, Mr. Lynn also has three other more prominent roles:
The prince of the Kingdom of Ferrand on the other side of the strait, the favored member of the Church of Light, and the fiancé of Her Majesty the Queen, the quasi-prince of the Kingdom of Braden.
Behind every identity, there is a huge force.
This means that Principal Lin En has information and resources at hand that ordinary people cannot imagine.
At this moment, Principal Linn sat at his desk and wrote a letter to the intelligence department of the Kingdom of Braden, the royal family of the Kingdom of Ferrand, and the Pope of the Church of Light.
There is only one sentence in the letter:
"There is a legendary mage haunting Cambridge University. I want to know his identity and purpose."
After handing these letters to the secretary next to him, Principal Lin En thought for a moment and took out another piece of writing paper.
I saw him writing seriously:
"Dear Her Majesty the Queen, I would like to apply for permission to use the magic cannon.
"A legendary mage has appeared at Cambridge University recently. I don't know what his purpose is. If he has ill intentions towards the university, I hope he can protect himself through magic cannons..."
…………
After lunch, Merlins arrived at the top of the Astronomy Tower again.
The backlash of prophecy left a deep psychological shadow on him. Therefore, looking at the huge telescope and the white porcelain coffee cup next to it, Merlins could only feel awe in his heart.
With hope, he lifted the coffee cup and picked up the white paper underneath, wanting to see if the mysterious legendary mage had been here last night and if he was willing to accept his apology.
However, at this moment, he suddenly noticed the three hundred pound banknote next to the white paper.
"He wants to do a deal with me?" Merlins felt a little confused.
He quickly opened the white paper and saw the message from the "Legendary Mage"
"Young man, why are you so serious?
"A mere prophecy can't kill me, it can only tickle me.
"If you really want to express your apology, why not sell me a few more bags of yesterday's bread and we can cancel it all.
"The three pence yesterday was the deposit."
After reading this passage, Merlins felt that he could not understand the brain circuit of the legendary mage.
He clearly remembered that after magicians advanced to legend, their brain calculations would speed up dozens of times, and there was no need for "mental concentration" magic at all.
"Could it be that... he wants to buy it for his students?"
"However, the 'mental focus' magic should be a piece of cake for him! Why do you have to buy it from me?"
"Also, this three-penny deposit is so unique! Sure enough, legendary mages are all weirdos..."
"I don't know what kind of rules this senior has mastered," Merlins secretly guessed in his heart. "With the help of prophecy, I saw a darkness in his destiny, which proves that he has ability in shadow magic.
Very profound attainments; but
, his whereabouts are erratic and he is very good at hiding himself, which proves that he may be a master of space or illusion magic; and in recent days, he has appeared on the astronomy tower one after another, and he may also have in-depth research on astrological magic.
…”
Thinking of this, Merlins took a deep breath, showed an expression of admiration, and sighed from the bottom of his heart:
"That Your Excellency is really awesome!"
