Chapter 168 The Dark Wizard’s Apprentice (Please Vote for Me)

The young boss excused his stomachache and asked Lao Liu to wait for a while before running away.

Lao Liu looked at the young boss's back with a smile, turned to Lin An and said, "I know this kid very well. He must be calling Lao Cao now."

Lin An blinked and said nothing.

When he was alone with Lao Liu, he was not afraid of him. Today, Lin An is no longer a weakling who has just come into contact with the extraordinary world, and is still very confident in self-protection.

"Even if all the antlers are deployed, nothing can be found." Old Liu smiled and shrugged, "I am just an ordinary person now."

Indeed, Lin An could feel that the strong emotions of wizards were very different from the emotional state of ordinary people at the spiritual level.

Even so, he still cautiously showed a blank expression, "What are you talking about?"

Lao Liu walked into the office with a smile and closed the door.

"While those from Antlers haven't arrived yet, I have a few words to talk to you."

He walked to the sofa on the side of the office, sat down, stretched out his hand and gestured to Lin An, "Sit down?"

Lin An raised his eyebrows slightly, looking at this familiar yet unfamiliar old Liu, with a smile on his face, "Okay, wait a moment, I'll boil some water to make tea."

It was familiar, not because the old Liu in front of him was very similar to his boss, Old Liu, whom he had met before.

On the contrary, the old Liu in front of him is more like the gray wolf spiritual temperament of his former boss, Old Liu.

The gray wolf was spiritual, its gray hair had an elegant texture like satin, and there was a faint sapphire blue flow. There is something as deep and gloomy as a pool of water, and there is also a kind of free and light breeze blowing through the pool.

To be honest, when Lin An was drawing the 'gray-blue hair portrait', he always felt a sense of detachment. He just felt that the gray wolf's spirituality was really incompatible with Lao Liu.

But when I think of Chen Xinmi and Maomao, myself and Ugly Head, Chen Shuyun and the violent python, I feel that spirituality and myself should not be compatible.

Now looking at Lao Liu in front of me, I finally feel like - 'Ah, it feels right, this is the right way! ’.

Perhaps, this is what is called cultivating to the 'true' level.

On the level of mind.

Pour the hot mineral water into the teapot, bring up some foam, gently scrape it off with the tea lid, pick up the teapot, and give the teacup a shower.

The first brew of tea washes away the dust and stirs up the aroma of the tea leaves. The leaves stretch and the color of the tea is diffused.

Brew it again and pour it into a cup, the fragrance will fill the air.

Old Liu picked up the teacup and smelled it, then brought it to his mouth and took a sip before putting down the teacup again.

To be honest, Lin An didn't like this kind of overly hot tea, which didn't quench his thirst at all.

Moreover, this thing is also very expensive. In the eyes of tea drinkers, coffee, which was considered a luxury product in the past, is actually just the same price.

For example, the tea that the little boss put in Lin An's office cost more than three thousand a pound. Lin An really couldn't tell how expensive it was.

It seems similar to the kind-hearted grandmothers on the street who cook tea for passers-by to drink for free.

But amazingly, just as they were busy boiling water to make tea, the atmosphere between the two became quiet.

"You are a wizard." Old Liu leaned back on the sofa and looked at Lin An in a natural manner, "I can still feel the breath of the breathing method in you, and even vaguely smell of the furnace."

As he spoke, the corner of his mouth slightly raised, "I'm afraid this kid Lu Dexian can't teach you to this level. In other words, you have already infiltrated the Antler Witch Hunting Knights."

Lin An looked at him calmly and said nothing.

Old Liu gently tapped the armrest of the sofa with his fingers, a smile on his face, "Then I have reason to believe that your role is equivalent to an experimental subject. Lujiao uses you to explore Lu Dexian's path."

"This silly boy Lu Dexian is obviously very talented, but he lacks a bit of the responsibility of a deer horner."

"He should take the initiative to inherit his father's antlers and continue to dedicate everything to the research of generations of antlers. Unfortunately, Brother Lu protects him too well, which makes him less awe of the extraordinary world."

Lin An picked up the tea cup and took a sip, looked at Lao Liu and nodded, "Everyone in the Antler Witch Hunting Knights is like this. They also treat themselves as experimental subjects."

Old Liu was stunned for a moment, thought about it, and said with great agreement, "Yes, this is why I can't hate Brother Lu."

He waited for Lin An to speak, but unfortunately Lin An said nothing more.

The atmosphere in the office fell silent again.

Lao Liu drank the teacup gently, and finally put down the teacup, "Then let's keep the story short."

"Young man..." He stared at Lin An, "I think you have understood something, so you should have such a subtle feeling. That is, you and I are actually very similar."

"We are all wizards mixed with the Witch Hunting Knights. We are all looking for our own path. We learn witchcraft, breathing methods, and furnaces. We wander between wizards and knights..."

"I was born a few years earlier, learned the method of breathing furnace, and also learned a lot of witchcraft. I began to figure out something, and also created a name in the wizarding world, and established my own temple under the eyes of the Knights. The Wizarding Organization.”

"It sheltered some people and took advantage of some people."

“There are moments of kindness towards the world, and there are moments of unscrupulous cruelty.”

"When I look at you now, I feel like I was looking at my past self."

"I think maybe I should be the one who knows you best in this world."

Old Liu looked at Lin An with a smile, "So, are you interested in becoming the apprentice of a dark wizard like me?"

Lin An was stunned for a moment, not expecting what Lao Liu was going to say.

He was silent for a while and shook his head, "I have a master!"

Old Liu laughed, "That's how it feels. Ha, I was also impressed by Brother Lu's charisma back then, and I had to make a painful choice between my wizard relatives and the idol I admired."

He shook his head with emotion, "Think about it, no one understands better than me how a wizard should balance witchcraft and the furnace, and no one knows better than me how to operate in the territory of the Knights." Create an organization of wizards."

"I can teach you all these."

Lin An pursed his lips, picked up the hot water kettle, refilled the teapot, and added tea for Lao Liu and himself. Then he raised his head and looked at Lao Liu seriously, "Why?"

Everything has a reason!

No one treats themselves well without any reason!

Lin An knew it.

"Two reasons." Old Liu picked up the tea cup with a calm and natural attitude. "First, I have encountered some problems on my spiritual path. If I want to go further, I need to do some experiments. I need someone to help me try out my new ideas. apprentice."

Lin An looked at him calmly, "In other words, you want me to be your experiment?"

Lao Liu shrugged, "Who is not? I was the same then, and I am the same now. There is a way to learn, and I can teach you a lot. This is your gain. As for whether your path can be successful, you have to rely on yourself. ”

"Wizards are monsters of the soul. Everyone's psychic power is so different. The same method may not work for others, but you can."

Lin An shook his head secretly. He already had a master. The cultivation path given by Lao Cao was right for him intuitively. There was no need for him to try more.

In this hopeless and extraordinary world, if you make the slightest mistake, the final outcome will be miserable.

No one has a second life to try.

Get it wrong, and you die.

Even someone like Lao Liu who could create a clone probably wouldn't be able to try it out, otherwise he wouldn't be needed.

"The second reason." Old Liu did not wait for Lin An's answer and continued to talk to himself, "I can teach you how to build a force. In fact, what I need is to practice in the original 'Crazy Wizard's Tree Hole' Those who practice black magic. As for others who still insist on not touching black magic, it is of no use to me.”

"I can give you a list and tell you each person's abilities, needs, and difficulties that need to be solved, so that you can easily recruit these people under your command."

"Although I am useless to those people, I have not driven them away in the past. After all, they have no other place to choose except me. I just treat them as a good deed and provide them with shelter."

"Maybe in the future they will choose to practice black magic due to some encounters, and then it will be useful to me again."

Lin An frowned slightly, "What good will this do to you?"

"Yes." Old Liu spread his hands, "As everyone knows, the 'Crazy Wizard's Tree Hole' organization has been destroyed, and the leader 'Kapok' wizard is dead, so I just turned to the dark. At this time, I I need someone to stand in front of me and help me block every plot the Witch Hunters have against the wizard organization."

No, I'm not asking you.

Lin An calmly looked behind Lao Liu at the stone arch covered with tree roots.

The tree roots twisted into a face with a gloomy expression, "I was tricked by someone. The eyeball lich led the Witch Hunter Knights to come to me and asked me to replace him in the Witch Hunter Knights' list to eliminate attention."

"And that wizard with the black cat and Zuyu transformation skills actually teamed up with my niece Chen Xinmi to kill me? I don't dare to trouble Chen Xinmi, am I still afraid of the transformation wizard?"

"He even hid in my tree hole organization, disguised as a 'Rabbit Kid' wizard, and actually deceived me!"

"The black cat transformation wizard, and the 'eyeball lich' wizard who entered the semi-lich state..."

"Damn it, when did such a powerful wizard force appear in Shenhou City, and it secretly developed under my nose!"

"They will definitely not be willing to be lonely. They will definitely show their flaws. I know, I know!"

"Now I am hiding in the dark and watching them play. Hey, I am watching this wizarding force fighting the antlers to death. It would be best to involve Chen Xin's obsessed wizards association and witch coven organization!"

"When the time comes, I'll do it to all of them suddenly, hehe."

"The wind is blowing hard, I have to hide! Lin An, I need you to stand in front and inquire about information from the Antlers and the Witches' Coven."
