Chapter 3 Weird

The City Lord's Mansion is much more luxurious than the Viscount's Mansion, Green thought to himself.

The hall was crowded with people, Green couldn't wait to look inside, and saw a wizard in a large gray robe sitting at the top of the hall, his face was just like what Mary said, as if shrouded in a layer of smoke, making it difficult to see clearly.

A transparent crystal ball was placed on the table in front of the wizard, exuding a soft light, and the whole hall was enveloped in a mysterious atmosphere. A red-eyed frog was squatting beside the crystal ball, screaming "cuckoo cluck" incessantly .

Is this the wizard?

A little excited, this was the first time Green saw a wizard who possessed mysterious and powerful witchcraft power, and in front of the wizard's crystal ball, a chubby brown-haired girl was touching the crystal ball nervously with her eyes closed.

The people in the hall held their breaths, and there was no sound for a long time. Then Green looked behind the wizard, three children who were about the same size as himself.

is her?

The first girl Green saw was pouting at this moment, with a look of reluctance on her face.

This girl was the one who discarded the magic book "Nose Hunting Transformation and Odor Atlas" in the Viscount's mansion in winter. Green also knew for more than half a year that she was the only daughter of the lord of Bissel City and possessed great power.

Thinking about it, the nobleman with the big belly was the great Lord Bissel.

The other two people seem to be a pair of brothers and sisters, or maybe brothers and sisters. Green can't tell the difference, but judging from their almost identical appearance, they must be related by blood.

The boy was full of arrogance, standing behind the wizard with his head held high, looking at the people who came to the wizard's apprentice qualification appraisal, with a sneer on his face, similar to the guy who collects gold coins at the gate of the city lord's mansion.

The girl looked a little shy, and it was probably rare for so many people to pay attention at the same time.

"Could it be that they are the ones who have been tested to have the qualifications of potential wizard apprentices?"

Green guessed in his mind.

Green guessed right, the siblings were children who were tested by wizards in a city before Bissel City to have the qualifications of wizard apprentices.

Being able to stand out from the hundreds of thousands of children, and let the usual high-ranking aristocrats fawn on me, this really makes people feel soaring, and it can't help being a little proud.

The boy's name is Yorkris, and the girl's name is Yorkliana. They were originally from an ordinary Orion family.

When the two of them were both found to have the potential of wizards, those usually noble nobles suddenly looked like a tavern girl.

This kind of fawning on two people makes Yokris feel that he is the center of the world, that he is the darling of heaven and the protagonist of fate.

Yokris looked at those guys scrambling to test the wizard's potential with contempt in his eyes.

If it is so good to have the qualifications of a wizard apprentice, how could it be that behind Master Arrowitz, only his brother and sister and the idiot outside the door followed in the first three cities?

It would be nice to have the city lord's daughter alone in this city, and it was obtained by bribing the wizard.

"Spiritual power 6, unqualified, next."

At this moment, the mysterious wizard spoke.

At the same time, the chubby girl who was nervously touching the crystal ball turned pale and left the crystal ball under the urging of the people behind.

"Hey, it's unqualified again."

"Yeah, it seems that we have no hope here."

The people who were holding their breath sighed. After a day of aptitude testing, except for the daughter of the city lord who was the first to test, no one had the aptitude of a wizard.

If it weren't for the fact that a gold coin had already been paid, the rest of them would have given up long ago.

"Spiritual power 5, unqualified, next."

The boy in front of the crystal ball curled his lips helplessly, and left in despair.

One after another, the people who took the qualification test of witch apprentices left. Gradually, as Green got closer and closer, a sense of despair gradually rose in his heart.

It seems that being a wizard is not so easy.

Green knew that the boy in front was Wade, the son of the owner of the Moon Bay Tavern. The Moon Bay Tavern was the most luxurious place in Bissel City, so this guy must have countless gold coins.

Wade stood in front of the crystal ball nervously, touched it, and closed his eyes as the crystal ball gradually emitted a soft light.

"Mental power 9, no... huh?"

The sharp-eyed Green saw that Wade quietly handed the wizard a bag, which turned out to be strange stones.

The well-informed Green immediately thought of a possibility, bribery?

"Well, all right, stand behind me."

The wizard put away the bag and changed his mouth.

Wade looked excited: "Thank you, Master."

After speaking, he stood excitedly behind the wizard.

Green's face was ugly. He had nothing to bribe the other party. I believe this great wizard would not like the only gold coin left in his house, right?

Green walked to the crystal ball in a state of confusion, not knowing what to do.

"Place your hands on top of the crystal ball and close your eyes."

Following the wizard's words, Green instinctively followed. For a moment, in Green's senses, the hall seemed to be quiet, as if the whole world was covered with a big hood.

"Huh? What's going on?"

Green opened his eyes, only to see that the people in the hall seemed to be frozen, not moving.

The city lord's daughter was still pouting and crying, but tears were dripping in the air. Yokris sneered, showing two pointed canine teeth.

Green turned around, and the annoying guy at the door who charged the appraisal fee casually threw a gold coin backwards in his hand, but the gold coin was frozen in midair at this time.

Everyone in the hall seemed to be frozen, frozen in a time and space?

Um?

wrong!

Green noticed that there was a table in the corner of the hall, and there were plates on it, with exquisite patterns imprinted on the plates, such extravagant plates could not be used in common people's homes.

Inside the plate are exquisite pastries and fruits, which the Lord City Lord uses to serve to those who test the qualifications of wizards, but no one will actually come to eat them, so decoration is more important than practicality.

But at this time, on the top of the fruit platter, there were actually two creatures with colorful soft tentacles and countless eyes, floating and playing like jellyfish, swinging and swinging in the air.

This... this is incredible!

What is this?

Green could feel his body trembling, and his face must be ugly. Although he had longed for the mysterious wizarding world countless times, but now the wizarding world has just opened the door to him at the tip of the iceberg, and he feels endless unknown and fear.

This is a world different from the real world I know.

Green bravely walked towards the two strange unknown creatures cautiously, but just approaching the table, the two creatures seemed to be frightened and swam to the wall.

At this time, the wall turned out to be like water waves, and the two strange creatures easily merged into the wall and disappeared.

Dazed for a moment, Green was stunned by the fact that two strange creatures disappeared into the wall.

However, because he was close to the dining table, Green suddenly discovered that in addition to the four normal wax torches on the dining table, there was also a wax torch that seemed extremely abnormal.

Although there is a burning candle on top of this wax torch, the wax torch itself is not an exquisite decoration of noble craftsmanship, but a roasted red pig's head.

Green was a little surprised. Why did he feel normal when he saw the wax torch at the beginning, but when he got close to it, he suddenly felt that it was contrary to the facts?

Strangely, the two eyes of the pig-headed wax torch moved slowly, fixed on Green, and met Green's eyes.

A creepy and weird atmosphere pervades.

"Haha! I have finally broken through to the highest level! The sky! The earth! The dragon! Can't stop me anymore!"

Suddenly, a loud and arrogant voice appeared from this terrifyingly silent world. I don’t know if it’s because Green’s thinking ability has slowed down. Although he felt abrupt, he didn’t feel frightened. .

It was a biographical novel of bards that nobles read when they were bored.

The theme of the story is probably that a poor boy fell in love with a noble lady, but was obstructed by the other family. Then the poor boy worked hard step by step, and with countless opportunities, he finally defeated the most powerful evil dragon in the world and proved himself. Marry the one you love.

Overall, it's an old-fashioned boring story, and there are some illustrations in the novel, depicting illustrations of the main character defeating evil enemies one by one.

"See... hell."

Green looked at the biographical novel and stammered.

A small paper figurine was struggling to break through the books, and stood up slowly. The figurine had all the organs of a human being, and his expression was lifelike, with an exaggerated expression of surprise, and he looked around in a daze.

This paper figurine is the illustration of the protagonist of the biographical novel.

It's just that at this time, although he is no longer as rough and simple as the illustrations in the novel, he has exquisite human expressions, but this is only his front side!

In essence, he is just a thin piece of paper standing up, and his back is a book page full of words.

"Damn it, where is this? Shouldn't I be a god?"

The paper figurine shouted in panic and looked around in a daze.

Suddenly, the villain seemed to see Green, his little face suddenly had a serious expression, and he pulled out a long sword made of paper and pointed it at Green.

"Who are you? A god from the God Realm?"

"Who are you, a god from the God Realm? Who are you? A god from the God Realm? Who are you?..."

The cracks in the floor tiles on the floor of the hall formed a long crack. The cracks opened and closed like a talking mouth. Although Green and the motionless nobles in the hall stood on the cracks, they did not fall down.

It seems that this slit mouth is just an illusion, but it is parroting the words of the paper figurine over and over again.

Muran protruded a scarlet tongue from the endless dark cracks, and the tongue protruded from Green's feet. Green could even clearly see that the tongue was made up of countless tiny snakes wriggling together, and rolled up abruptly. Standing on top of the books, the villain has long been stunned.

With a series of screams, the villain disappeared deep into the cracks in the floor.

"It's not true..."

Green was stunned and trembling in place.

Suddenly, the desktop crystal ball seemed to emit a dazzling light. At the same time, Green was pulled to the side of the crystal ball in a daze. The moment his hands touched the crystal ball, the world no longer presented a frozen picture, and people talked about it The voice also reached Green's ears.

"Spiritual power 12, yes, stand behind me."

Green raised his head pale, got up instinctively numbly, and stood behind the wizard.

Looking up and looking around, all the weirdness disappeared, even the nobleman who was reading a biographical novel did not have any abnormalities, there was no pig's head wax torch on the table, and the floor was fine, it seemed that everything just now was an illusion, or dream.

"Damn it! What kind of luck did this guy have to have the aptitude of a wizard?"

"It's over, it's over, my child once bullied him, don't come back for revenge in the future!"

The hall boiled for a while, then fell silent again after the wizard snorted coldly, but Wade, the daughter of the city lord and the son of the owner of Moon Bay next to Green, looked at Green in surprise.

But when he saw Green dressed as a servant, he pouted contemptuously and lost the intention of talking.
