Magic!

Russell has a solution?

In an instant, everyone's eyes in the living room fell on Russell.

"I happen to have a friend who is good at divination. Maybe he can find something. I heard that divination requires a medium. Mr. Arctic Wolf, can you lend me this safe for a day?" Russell said lightly.

Russell also has a friend who is good at divination? The five research club members looked at Russell in surprise.

In their understanding, although Russell performed very well, he was only a student who had just entered the College of Higher Education, and he should not be familiar with other astrology and numerology students in the College.

Moreover, several other astrology and numerology students in the college are all third-year students. In terms of the level of divination and prediction, they are basically on the same level as Heimdall, at most a little better.

Could it be some divination master outside the academy? Several members of the research club immediately had certain guesses, but did not make too many inquiries.

"Of course, of course, you can take it away as you like. You can come back anytime. Anyway, I won't be using this safe for the time being."

Arctic Wolf looked at Russell with a smile on his face, knowing that this freshman in the College of Higher Education, who knew him well, only asked for his opinion out of politeness and did not really give him the right to choose.

Russell put the safe into his dimensional pocket and changed the subject:

"By the way, Mr. Arctic Wolf. The Academy Star Competition is about to begin. Are you sure about your two teammates?"

The Arctic Wolf suddenly shook as if struck by lightning.

Yes, there is this!

I almost forgot about this!

The corner of the Arctic Wolf's mouth twitched and his face turned slightly blue.

He is not even a transcendent now, he is just an ordinary person. It is impossible for him to participate in a big competition of this level, right?

Even if he still has enough awakening potions to return to his second-year strength, he can only be used as cannon fodder in such a genius-level competition!

But if you don’t participate, you will also arouse suspicion from others!

Why can't I contact Miss Thorn Bird during this period of time? If it wasn't in front of everyone, the Arctic wolf would have wanted to roll on the ground.

"Uh...I haven't decided on my teammates yet. My biological brother has just entered the High School. Maybe...maybe he wants to form a team with me?" Arctic Wolf answered hesitantly.

As soon as the answer came out of his mouth, he realized that the situation was worse than he imagined.

Bad, Shiro also came to the High Court.

What a disaster it would be if he found out that this brother of mine was in vain!

Russell said in a calm tone:

"Since the final teammate candidate has not been determined, you can give me some consideration."

Teaming up with the Arctic Wolf is really no choice.

Otherwise, he might not even be qualified to compete!

"Okay, since Mr. Russell has plans to compete, I will take you into consideration."

Arctic Wolf maintained his character, smiling, and at the same time trying his best to hint to Russell with his eyes, "As long as you speak, I will listen."

You are wearing sunglasses, and I can’t see your eyes... Russell secretly cursed.

Everyone chatted for a few more words, said goodbye to the Arctic Wolf, left the attached garden of this gorgeous mansion, and disappeared at the end of the road in the accommodation area.

…

Seeing that Russell and the five people from the research club had left, the tall and muscular giant bear with an elegant and handsome face walked out of the guest bedroom:

"Arctic Wolf, I just remembered something. Isn't that the only stone of destiny stored in your safe?

"I remember the two of us putting the slate into the safe together, and there were obviously other things in there. But now everything in the safe is gone."

What? Did I let anything else go? The Arctic wolf turned his head and was about to question the giant bear when his heart suddenly tightened.

"Yes, yes. There's more than just the slate in the safe."

The Arctic Wolf's back suddenly became numb, and a chill shot straight to his spinal cord.

"What else is stored there?" Seeing the Arctic wolf's mouth wide open and its pupils dull, the giant bear immediately realized the problem.

The thief probably came for another item!

"Scrolls of knowledge..." Arctic Wolf said the answer, "Scrolls of knowledge for the third and fourth years of the Transfiguration and Transformation Department."

"Those two scrolls, two extremely precious scrolls of knowledge that are considered secrets of the academy, were stolen by thieves!"

In the living room, the two fell into silence, and at the same time they realized the seriousness of the situation.

"How did you bring those two knowledge scrolls out of the office? The confidentiality level of the third and fourth grade knowledge scrolls is extremely high. According to the requirements, they must be absorbed in person and are absolutely not allowed to be taken away." The giant bear asked quickly, but he probably could Estimate the answer.

"Of course it was with the power of Miss Thorn Bird. When I was just promoted to the third grade and then to the fourth grade, she helped hypnotize the teacher who was responsible for supervising my absorption of the knowledge scroll, distorting their minds and making the teacher think that I had already absorbed the scroll. Absorbed." Arctic Wolf replied matter-of-factly.

"With my level of spiritual cultivation, I definitely cannot absorb the knowledge scrolls of the third and fourth grade. Otherwise, I will go crazy at best, or my brain will explode on the spot!" Arctic Wolf added.

The giant bear looked gloomy and was not surprised by this answer.

For Arctic Wolf, who obviously only has the strength of a second grader, the knowledge scrolls of the third and fourth graders must not have been absorbed and must exist somewhere.

I just didn’t expect that it was actually stored in the safe and now it was stolen!

"Didn't you give the two scrolls to the lady?" the giant bear asked.

"Leave it to Miss Thorn Bird. After studying it for a while, she said that it was not needed for the time being, so she threw it to me again, saying that if I reach a spiritual level one day in the future, I might be able to absorb them." Arctic Wolf said with a look on his face. replied innocently.

The giant bear let out a long sigh and lowered his head slightly:

"This matter is more troublesome than we thought. The identity of the thief may be unusual. If it weren't for the fact that we can't contact the lady now, this is an important matter that must be reported immediately."

"I don't quite understand. Big Bear, you said the thief's identity is unusual. What do you mean?" Arctic Wolf scratched his head wrapped in white hair.

The giant bear remained silent and did not answer.

…

Back to last night.

In the Arctic Wolf's mansion, in the gloomy night, the snoring of the Arctic Wolf acts as the background sound.

In front of the completely open safe with the protective magic temporarily disabled.

Two thieves, one of them is a masked figure wearing a cloak, but he is not tall; the other is a white kitten with a cunning light in his eyes.

The two thieves looked at each other, you looked at me, I looked at you.

"You came here to steal things too? We bumped into each other." The two thieves did not communicate, but expressed the same meaning with their eyes and actions.

After a brief moment of embarrassment and silence, the two thieves took what they wanted.

The masked man took away the ancient mottled stone slab and stuffed it into his cloak.

The white kitten picked up two scrolls of knowledge in its mouth. In a flash of light, both scrolls disappeared. They must have been stored in a storage space.

The two thieves waved goodbye and left through the window.

Behind the scenes is the thunderous purring of the Arctic wolf.

…

Russell took the safe to Duncan's villa.

"Duncan, could you please tell me where the missing items in this safe are now?"

Duncan sat cross-legged on the floor of the living room, took out the golden water basin he had used before from his military green dimensional school bag, and filled it with spring-like clear water using magic. He looked at the safe in front of him and was about to start divination.

"Wait a moment. Classmate Russell, I feel something is wrong!" Duncan stopped suddenly. "Although we are familiar with each other, I am the principal of the college. It seems that I should not help you work for free."

On the screen of Russell's mobile phone, the wind chime swaying with snow-white hair complained: "It's broken. Mr. Principal has become smarter. How can he still collect wool from now on?"

"Russell, think about it. If someone wants to entrust the principal to do something, they also need to become the champion of the Academy Star Competition. My help can be regarded as the ultimate prize reward. I almost did it for you for free." Duncan, who worked for free, was indignant.

"Mr. Principal, you shouldn't think so. Normally, what the Academy Star Competition Champion requires you to do will definitely be much more difficult than it is now. This is just a small favor and cannot be compared."

Russell began to use his own logic to analyze:

"And more importantly, I suspect that the theft of the Tablet of Destiny involves the Old Order who had infiltrated the college before. It is of great importance, and you should have paid attention to it, Mr. Principal..."

Russell also gave the reason for his speculation.

Duncan thought for a while and felt that Russell's words were reasonable. He turned to look at the golden basin on the floor again.

The pink-carved little boy raised his arms and drew mysterious symbols over the golden water basin.

"Let me make it clear first, the results provided by divination and prophecy may not be accurate, even for the world's number one prophecy master." Duncan added emphasis to the word "the world's number one prophecy master":

“Sometimes, the results of divination and predictions may be one-sided, or easily misunderstood. In rare cases, they are simply wrong, and therefore cannot be used as core evidence in court.

"So, please don't be superstitious about the results of divination!"

Russell nodded slightly:

"No problem, I will be mentally prepared."

Duncan looked at the golden basin filled with clear springs and used the safe as a divination medium to ask the question:

"Where can I find the items that were once stored in this safe but were stolen last night?"

A circle of ripples spread out, and specific patterns appeared on the water.

It was a red-roofed house with a chimney, and a small but gorgeous private garden. Judging from the format, it is obviously a student villa in a college.

This is... Russell frowned slightly and quickly ran through the appearance of each villa in the High Court in his mind, and immediately remembered who the owner of the villa was——

One of the only four fourth-year students in the High School, the clown.

The fourth graders' villas were prettier and more eye-catching than the third graders', so Russell immediately recalled it.

"Okay, I've helped you this far. I won't be involved in the rest." Duncan stretched, and the clear water in the golden basin disappeared immediately. He put the basin into the military green one. bag.

"Thank you, Duncan." Russell thanked him politely and put the safe back into his pocket.

It wasn't until this moment that Russell thought of a very serious question.

Even if the thief cannot open the safe temporarily, he can still steal the entire safe!

Russell stood up and walked to the door, opened it, and was about to leave Duncan's villa when he saw two figures, a man and a woman, walking towards him in the courtyard outside the door.

A guest coming to visit Duncan? Russell's thoughts moved, and he immediately saw clearly the appearance of the two people.

The girl was wearing an off-white long dress. She was Xinyue, a member of the Wuwu Society and the head of the United Clinic, who had had many conflicts with Russell Duncan before.

This student from the Department of Creation and Summoning did not participate in the forest hunting competition, but relied on submitting academic reports to obtain the qualifications to enter the third grade and enter the Higher School. He is one of the seven students who entered the Higher School this year. .

Now the crescent moon's chest is no longer the original bronze badge, but a silver badge that is exceptionally bright under the moonlight.

Next to the girl, there is a tall man with a handsome and majestic face and light blond hair. The gold badge on his chest directly illustrates his distinguished status.

Russell recognized the man’s face that had appeared many times on the college’s official website at a glance——

The fourth grade almighty, Hui Yao, Xinyue’s cousin!

What are these two people doing? Russell frowned slightly.

He and Duncan had had a lot of conflicts with Xinyue before. Could this wave of attacks be an attempt to punish them?

At this time, Duncan also came to the door and looked at the two people walking slowly with Russell.

I saw these cousins ​​with an imposing manner.

The elder brother Huiyao is heroic, unsmiling, and his pale golden hair is particularly eye-catching under the light of the night light and the bright moon; the younger sister Xinyue has a smug smile on her lips.

"Long time no see, Duncan." Xinyue lowered her head, waved to Duncan at the door frame and said hello, with a playful attitude in her tone, and then looked at Russell next to Duncan:

"Russell, you're here too. That's just right. It saves me having to look for you twice."

Russell was unsmiling and responded calmly:

"What's the matter? Miss Xinyue, Mr. Huiyao."

Xinyue didn't answer, just chuckled, then pulled her cousin's arm next to her and pointed at Russell and Duncan:

"It's the two of them! The one who beat me to the hospital last time was this dwarf Duncan! And that Russell who used strange magic to sow discord and caused us to have a fight with the White Wolf Club!"

Huiyao looked at the two young men in front of him with an indifferent expression:

"You are Russell and Duncan. Since you have a conflict with my cousin, then I, as the cousin, have to come forward."

He is really looking for trouble... Russell moved his hands in his pockets slightly, bowed slightly, gathered spiritual energy, and assumed a posture ready to fight at any time.

In colleges and universities, discussions among students occur from time to time.

Russell is confident that if he and Duncan join forces, few people in the world will be their opponents!

And Duncan was even more eager to give it a try, pulling up his sleeves and looking impatient.

This is a chance to show off!

"I'm very sorry that my cousin has caused trouble to you!" Huiyao bowed deeply at 90 degrees to Russell and Duncan, with a respectful and sincere look on his face.

ah? Duncan was disappointed and looked lost.

"Wait a minute, cousin, what are you doing?" Xinyue was shocked and at a loss.

"Of course I'm here to apologize, otherwise why would we come here?" Huiyao straightened up again and answered in a matter-of-fact tone.
