$1175 Meet Again
He listened quietly to Renoir's story, but the moment his eyes crossed his shoulder, Raymond suddenly turned around.
Scarlet wizard robe, withered and sunken cheeks, a haggard face with a blank expression, and no emotion in his eyes.
The sleeping old woman whom he had seen at the entrance of the college was standing behind him at some point.
This surprise is no small matter!
The force field barrier has shielded this room from the outside world, and Raymond's own force field protection has not been able to detect the intrusion of foreign objects at all.
But the old woman, who was only an inch away from him, had obviously been standing here for a long time!
Raymond, who was sitting in the chair, was feeling cold all over. His eyes scanned the old woman who was as silent as a puppet from bottom to top. Her hair was blowing, but he tried his best to stay calm. When he noticed that the old woman's gaze was not there at all. When there was a shift due to his own actions, he slowly stood up and stepped aside.
Renoir, who had stopped talking, leaned forward and bowed to the old woman who looked like a puppet. "Lord Menas, what brings you here?"
Raymond, who was standing aside, found that Renoir's expression was quite respectful, but there was a hint of helplessness in his eyes, and the right hand he had shrunk behind him was shaking slightly at him, just like what he had done before. Silence gesture.
Raymond, who was about to speak, felt a move in his heart when he saw this, so he closed his mouth and waited patiently.
It's just that the old woman, who was like a puppet, didn't react at all to Renoir's salute. She even seemed to be indifferent to everything around her, and she still kept leaning forward slightly. like a statue.
The atmosphere in the room became extremely strange, and Raymond standing aside quickly determined that although there seemed to be three people in the room, he was actually the only one with signs of breathing and life. one.
Could it be that the Wizarding Academy is now controlled by ghosts?
This is too ridiculous...
Raymond was thinking like this. The more I think about it, the more I feel that such a guess is probably the closest to the truth.
Renoir, who bowed to salute, did not get a response after waiting for a long time. Finally, he raised his head and took a look and couldn't help but speak again. "Lord Menas, what brings you here?"
This time Renoir opened his mouth, but the old woman's expression finally began to change. The confusion in her eyes gradually disappeared. She slowly turned her neck and looked around as if she couldn't see clearly what was going on around her. Before she opened her mouth to respond, At the same time, he turned his face to Raymond. "Oh oh oh...it turns out to be little Renoir, hehehe..."
It was a very stereotyped but not devoid of laughter, but it made people's hair stand on end.
Raymond, who had never been exposed to such a life form before, nodded slightly while remaining alert.
The reaction speed is extremely slow. After a while, a gleam of light gradually appeared in the old woman's cloudy eyes. She squinted her eyes and slowly turned her face sideways, and asked Renoir in confusion. "Little Renoir, the old lady seemed to have heard about the 'Pure Spiritual Body' before. What's going on?"
Renoir glanced at Raymond. The corners of his eyes twitched and he said. "Reporting to Lord Menace, not only did I hear it before, but I actually saw a pure spiritual body..."
"It really happened. With such an existence appearing in such a plane, could it be that the old dean's prediction is about to be verified..."
The old woman sighed, but Renoir's cheeks twitched. He pointed at Raymond and said. "Lord Menaishi, this is a student of the academy. He came here to seek a way to communicate with the old dean..."
Raymond remained silent. After hearing Renoir's words, he became more and more suspicious. In his previous judgment, he thought that the old woman called 'Lord Menace' was the clone of the old dean of the college, but after hearing her But his tone was not like that, and he couldn't help but feel a little thump in his heart. Somewhat disappointed.
But the old woman's gaze turned back to him, but her expression became dazed. "Old Dean? I can't contact you... She should still be wandering in the Netherworld, unless you are willing to search for her in the plane where she is..."
"Underworld? What is that place?"
"Hahaha... that place is not accessible to ordinary people..." The old woman Minais laughed dryly, her withered cheeks twitching but a glimmer of light flashed in her eyes, and she moved forward in the direction of Raymond. He leaned a little and looked at Raymond for a moment before continuing. "I didn't see it before... You should be qualified to enter there, but you must wait until you regain your strength..."
It was a hint but not a subtle affirmation, which made Lei Meng's eyes narrow in surprise.
He firmly believed that he had not suffered from Minaishi's perception or similar detection, but according to Minaishi, she clearly knew that he was injured.
"Don't worry, don't worry... The old lady was left here to manage the academy by the old dean. As long as any creature does not have any ill intentions towards the academy, it can enter the academy..."
Mineshi, who seemed to know what he was thinking, opened her mouth and explained. "Hey, although the old woman can't leave here, she is lucky as long as she can no longer sleep... Although the old woman doesn't know much about the pure spiritual body, she still knows a lot more than little Renoir. You Just listen to what the old lady says..."
Mines started to talk again, just like teaching students, and began to talk about some characteristics and features of life forms such as ghosts, vengeful spirits, and spiritual bodies. Especially for the part about vengeful spirits, the explanation was quite detailed.
However, as Mines continued to talk, Raymond's suspicion became more and more intense. He couldn't understand why the old woman was so clear, and he was also very puzzled about the strange invasion of his force field barrier without his noticing.
Renoir, who had been silent all the time, hesitated and interrupted after noticing his change in expression. "Mister Mines is the spirit of the amulet array in the academy. As long as she wants to know, there is nothing she can hide..."
Mines, who was interrupted in vain, raised his neck proudly. "Humph! As long as it is within the scope of the academy, there is nothing I don't know about what I want to know!"
Raymond, who was stunned, immediately stared, but he felt a little scared.
The spirit of the talisman array is already very rare, and if this old woman still has such ability, it is understandable, but it is even more speechless, especially when he thought of the madness with the Naga sisters last night, his face became extremely ugly!
But Mines, who was looking at Raymond, laughed strangely after he stared at him, and looked up and down for a long time, and then he suddenly realized and sneered. "Tsk! Little guy, don't have such dirty thoughts. Although I am the spirit of the guard talisman array, I never like to peek at other people's **..."
Hearing this, Raymond trembled in his heart. 'Don't like' and 'can't' are two completely different things. It seems that I still need to be more careful in this academy in the future...
There was a very awkward atmosphere in the room, but Raymond, who quickly adjusted his mentality, bowed and saluted. "Lord Mines, I have no interest in the ghosts. I just want to understand how to reunite the split pure spirits!"
"Little guy! Don't be too impatient!"
She curled her lips to show her dissatisfaction, but Mines still introduced the situation of pure spirits. "Pure spirits are extremely rare and difficult to grow, but each of them is extremely powerful after reaching adulthood..."
The tone was flat, and she would occasionally fall into contemplation as if she was recalling, but what Mines said surprised Raymond.
From the ancient wizard war tens of thousands of years ago to the subsequent plane wars, this old woman Mines seemed to have experienced it personally, and in her narration, she was so familiar with the ghost plane that it was as if she was born and grew up there... (To be continued...)
