Chapter 333 Oxford

By leaving the European continent behind, we are temporarily away from those troubles. When a group of people followed Tolkien to his home in Oxford, the owl that delivered the mail for Hogwarts had already arrived.

Tolkien rented a house next to Oxford University. It was a two-story building. Each room was small but full of warmth. Edith was a beautiful and intellectual woman, the so-called mistress of the family, who was very enthusiastic about the friends her husband brought back from the army. "Welcome to our home. Please sit down wherever you like. I'll prepare hot tea for you. Black tea?"

"If possible, whiskey would be good." Just after Logan finished speaking, Zhao Mai glared at him: "What are you doing? I'm just telling the truth."

"It's okay, the family is prepared, right?" Just after Tolkien finished speaking, he saw the sadness on his wife's eyebrows. But Edith nodded: "No problem, we have whiskey."

"Madam, we are going to be in trouble for a few days and there will be a lot of trouble, so I brought some of my own things." Zhao Mai said very politely: "I will ask the servants to move some things down. Do you have a storage room here?"

Zhao Mai and others took a boat to the UK, and "THE·CHE" drove to the UK from the bottom of the sea by itself, bringing with it various things they bought in the French market. Zhao Mai knew that various supplies were in short supply during the war. If the United States had not brought a large amount of supplies when it joined later, the lives of the British and French people would have been even harder than they are now. Based on the idea that gems that cannot be spent are just stones, Zhao Mai never leaves the storage cabinet in the car empty. After a while, all kinds of canned food, sugar, honey, and long-lasting cured meats and hams were moved into the Tolkien family's kitchen.

"John, come here and help me." Edith found the opportunity and secretly asked her husband: "What is going on? That maid Dogian said that all of this is for us? I took a look, these things are in It’s worth it on the black market…”

"Shh, it's okay. Mike is a Chinese. These are their etiquette. If you don't accept them, they will feel neglected." Tolkien explained: "I will accompany him to visit various places in the future, so Just accept it with peace of mind."

"You want to go out? You just came back."

"Don't worry, this time has nothing to do with the war. We are traveling and looking for some information for my research."

"You promise?" Edith said: "You were lucky to survive last time. When I heard that you fell ill, I thanked God for allowing you to leave that killing field."

"I will not go to war. I have met a group of good people who are trying to end this war as soon as possible. They assured me that this year will be the last year of the world war." Tolkien said: "And you I also read the latest newspapers, we are close to victory.”

"But I have a bad feeling. I had a dream. The clouds did not dissipate, but were shrouded in black clouds of death. The war did not end, but became more severe. Please do not leave the UK, please is you."

"Okay, I promise you, I will not leave England this time." Tolkien kissed his wife gently on the forehead: "Prepare your specialty dishes for us, and I will prepare drinks for them."

"Ah, by the way, there is a letter for you sent this morning, and I put it on the fireplace at the door." Edith said with a smile: "It seems to be from some school, I have never heard of it at all. "

"Maybe it's the special school I contacted, Hogwarts." Tolkien finally decided to keep his magic learning a secret for the time being, and would tell his wife after he learned at least one or two magics.

Regarding going to a magic school, Logan scoffed: "Learn magic? What's the use of that? Can it be bulletproof?" He looked at Zhao Mai: "You already know magic, why are you still learning it?"

"It's different. Mine is called psychic power, not that kind of magic." Zhao Mai took the letter from Tolkien and read it. It said that considering his and Tolkien's ages, it was hoped that they could arrive at Hogwarts before March 1st, try out the reading first, and then take the cram school exam at the end of June to officially determine their grades.

At the back of the letter are also attached the items that need to be purchased and how to purchase them, as well as the tickets to Hogwarts and the location of the station.

"If it's not magic, it's almost done. Why do you want to learn so much?" Logan shook his head: "And you are going to learn magic. Why do you still need to practice fighting skills with me? You can't bite off more than you can chew!"

"I still have to strengthen my physical fitness. We have a saying in China that skill does not overwhelm the body." Zhao Mai closed his eyes and swept his fingers across the letter paper, carefully feeling the remaining energy fluctuations on it. Unfortunately, this was just an ordinary letter, and Zhao Mai couldn't find anything unusual.

"Today is February 3rd. We need to arrive before the end of February." Tolkien looked at the calendar and said to Zhao Mai: "The university and I still have some things to deal with, so we need to wait in Oxford for about a week, and then How about we go to London? I want to start studying as soon as possible, at least to preview the relevant knowledge first."

"I have no problem." Zhao Mai folded the letter and returned it to Tolkien. "One week is enough. I'll give it a final try to see if I can learn what Logan is like."

"Hey, it sounds like we will be separated in a week."

"Of course, you two are going to school, and you have just come off the battlefield. I will not be stupid enough to leave you in Oxford." Zhao Mai said to Logan: "The natural force keeps cursing you and letting you go. The truth of destruction. Who knows when it will prompt you to do something I will not forgive."

"for example?"

"For example, to a friend's wife..." Zhao Mai said to Logan: "I won't trust you until you learn psychic powers."

Logan jumped up from his chair: "Hey! What do you mean, do you look down on my personality so much?"

"Yeah, I'm really worried, so let's have a fight." Zhao Mai hooked his fingers at Logan: "I promise I won't use psychic powers to deal with you. Do you dare to come?"

The more familiar you are with Logan, the more you feel the instability in him. Zhao Mai had experienced Atas's blasphemous magic curse, and he also found something similar in Logan. As he continued to experience the feeling contained in this eternal curse, Zhao Mai gradually understood a truth: eternal life requires the support of a corresponding spiritual realm.

Just like corresponding martial arts requires a corresponding state of mind, the ability to live forever, as an effect that all creatures dream of, also requires an equivalent mental state. Zhao Mai is technically able to live forever, such as turning into a ghost or a spiritual element and staying in that state. But he also knew that whether it was an undead creature or an elemental creature, it would affect a person's state of mind and cause him to slowly "pervert". The undead will be crazy and evil, which is not only determined by their physical state, but also their mental state.

It is very simple to obtain extra lifespan from Logan. You only need to draw part of his blood, and then use the natural force to assist you to increase the vitality of the living body. Although the effect will be worse the more times it is used, Zhao Mai estimates that it can have an extra sixty years of life, and these sixty years are not to delay aging, but to maintain youth.

Ado and Dogian's intelligence is defective. They seem to have maintained a kind of "ignorance" and "innocence", so extending their lifespan will not change their state of mind. Reserve Food is a dog, even though it's smarter, it should be fine. Zhao Mai was going to talk to Logan, bought some "blood bottles" from him, and put them in the taxi in case of emergency.
