Chapter 41 Hearing (please follow up)
It seems that night elves are very rare in the continent of Bias, so they have a great impact on second-level wizard apprentices.
After a while, Richard heard noisy footsteps outside the door. The other party opened the door, and it turned out to be a formal wizard in black robes who came in person. Behind him were two apprentices in gray robes. The apprentices had three white sticks on their chests. The cross pattern of bone sticks is obviously a rare third-level wizard apprentice.
The black-robed wizard in front of him looks like a middle-aged man in his thirties or forties, with high cheekbones, brown hair, and a typical Obalo appearance, but Richard knows that the other person's age may be He is older than his grandfather, which is like Seles.
The other party first glanced at the dead-eyed Dark Night Man's head on the table, then glanced at the nameplate again, then picked it up and looked at it carefully.
"Are you Richard? Hey! This nameplate is also carried by this night elf?" the brown-haired wizard asked while looking at it.
"Yes." Richard nodded. For inquiries from official wizards, Richard basically answered all questions. This was a sign of respect.
"Then this night elf was killed by you?" the other party asked again.
"Yes," Richard said affirmatively.
"Very good, can you tell me the whole story? I'm listening." After saying that, the brown-haired wizard gently brushed the top of Richard's head with his hand. According to Richard's feeling, it should be something similar to a lie detector. Kind of witchcraft.
Then he sat opposite Richard.
Richard didn't intend to hide it. He immediately told what happened, but still concealed the plot about the mysterious egg. After asking Richard to tell it three times, the brown-haired wizard nodded, seeming to believe Richard. What he said was silent.
The brown-haired wizard raised his head and glanced at a tall and thin third-level apprentice who came with him.
Richard thought to himself that it was bad. His previous workplace experience told him that someone might come out and make a fool of himself.
Sure enough, in the next second, as if taking some hint from the brown-haired wizard, the third-level apprentice immediately stepped forward, glanced at the nameplate, and began to ask Richard questions.
"You said that you and this night elf were shooting at each other, and the other party dodged to avoid it? Do you know what is written on this nameplate?"
"I don't know, I don't understand Elvish." Richard shook his head.
"It says Shadow Stalker Wojvind Yanes. Do you know what Shadow Stalker stands for?" the tall and thin apprentice asked in rapid succession.
Richard shook his head and said he didn't know, but he was thinking, "This nickname sounds very powerful!"
"The title of Shadow Stalker is an honorary title within the night elf race that is awarded to warriors with outstanding military exploits. The recipients are usually archery masters, hunting masters, or tracking masters.
Of course, their individual strength is not as good as that of formal wizards, but quite a few second- and third-level wizard apprentices have died in their hands. Tell me, why can you kill them?
You must be hiding something, what are you hiding! "
Especially the last two sentences fully exposed the intention of having the third-level apprentice be the bad guy and the brown-haired wizard the red face!
Richard was silent for a while, and he understood. It seemed that the brown-haired wizard actually didn't believe that he could kill the Shadow Stalker, even if he had the head to prove it.
But there was nothing wrong with his answer, so he specially ordered his third-level wizard apprentice to be the white face.
"I'm also good at bows and arrows, and I have my own trump card!" Richard thought for a while and decided to speak a little more clearly. After all, there was a formal wizard standing behind the third-level wizard apprentice.
"Tsk! How old are you, and you are also a master of archery? And your trump card can kill a Shadow Stalker? With all due respect, I don't believe it!" The other party's obviously disdainful look made Richard feel very unhappy.
That's right, if I hadn't set a trap and let the night elf man be stabbed hard by the skeleton, the outcome would indeed be hard to say!
To be fair, the outcome may be 50-50 at best!
But a win is a win!
"I can prove that Richard is a master of archery!" Suddenly a familiar voice sounded at the door.
Richard looked overjoyed, it was Senior Sister Mei Luo who was here, hey, Teacher Seles was here too!
"Seles, why are you here?" Facing the official wizard, the brown-haired wizard didn't seem to dare to show off, so he stood up with a smile and said hello.
"Mikel, Richard is my disciple." Seles said calmly.
"I can prove to Richard that during the entrance test, Richard showed extraordinary talent for crossbows. Senior Sasse can also testify to this." With her mentor by her side, Mei Luo was not afraid of the brown-haired wizard at all. And talk.
"Even if it can be proven that Richard has superb archery skills, what about his trump card? Can a first-level wizard apprentice, who has only been in school for a few days, have a trump card to kill a Shadow Stalker? This is so unreasonable!" The top apprentice also immediately questioned Mei Luo's testimony.
"I can prove that Richard has a trump card! Mikel, do you still remember what I gained from the ruins of Golden Wing Island?" Seles spoke.
This made the third-level wizard apprentice suddenly feel like a drake being strangled by the neck!
You want to say something, but you don't dare to say it!
If there is an official wizard testifying, then what else is there to say.
Suddenly, Richard felt a warmth in his heart. It felt good to have someone to support him!
"Seles, you mean the incomplete one?" After receiving Seles' affirmative reply, Mikel suddenly realized it. His eyes at Richard became much softer immediately, and he expressed his stance on the spot:
"Richard, you go and have a good rest first. The school will immediately send someone to investigate this matter!
However, the night elves' nameplates, bows and arrows and other items still need to be kept at the security office. After the matter is investigated, if it is true, they will be returned to you as trophies.
In addition, it is best not to go out these days and just take a good rest in the school. "
Richard agreed immediately.
He understood what Wizard Mikel meant. Not going out sounded nice, but in fact it meant restricting personal freedom, but he had no objection to this.
After all, four students died in one fell swoop. The school must send someone to investigate the situation before making a conclusion.
Richard looked at Seles, who nodded, meaning to let him go back and have a good rest first, while he himself had something to discuss with Mikel.
Senior Sister Mei Luo winked at him to reassure him.
After Richard went straight back to his dormitory, he truly relaxed.
The two days of high-intensity fighting, coupled with the intrigue during the hearing, made him physically and mentally exhausted. Not long after, he started snoring loudly!
Early the next morning, when the morning light shone on his face, Richard realized that he had slept with his clothes on last night.
I didn't even take a shower when I came back from the wild, and just fell asleep. It seemed that I was really tired!
At this moment, Richard remembered the white egg in the package, so he opened the package, carefully held the white egg in his hand, and observed it carefully.
After looking around, Richard found the mysterious white eggs that had lost their luster for a while and felt completely clueless.
After thinking for a long time, Richard decided to take this white egg to Teacher Seles for evaluation tomorrow, at least to understand what it is and what use it is to him!
Even if the mentor fell in love with him, it didn't matter. Just to give him a platform, Richard felt that Seles was still very good to his disciples.
There is no harm in giving the white eggs to Seles, and even if the mentor is interested in it, he will compensate him accordingly.
This can be seen from Seles's treatment of his grandfather.
On the other hand, if the white eggs are of no use, sell them as soon as possible. If they are useful and the instructor doesn't want them, then find a way to hatch them as soon as possible!
After making up his mind and washing up, a refreshed Richard walked slowly to the canteen to eat.
"Hey, have you heard about it? I heard from the old student that there were heavy casualties among the school's security department yesterday afternoon. A third-level wizard apprentice and three second-level apprentices all died in the spider path!" A green-haired student and a low-level student across from him said said the voice.
"Hey! Is this happening? Why didn't I hear about it?" The student's eyes widened, obviously very surprised.
"Really! The news has spread. I heard that all the official wizards were dispatched in the morning!" the green-haired student said confidently.
Richard's expression immediately changed! Spider Trail, these four words immediately touched his nerves!
