Cards are born to be king

Before the grade meeting started, Jiang Yong took Amos and sneaked out through the back door, followed the twists and turns of the corridor to the back of the auditorium.Swift was already there waiting for them. The pharmacist was still wearing his old dark green pharmacy robe. His pale face was stained with fatigue, but his dark pupils were still sharp.

His falcon-like eyes swept over Jiang Yong and Amos, without saying anything, just nodded slightly, turned around and led the two of them towards the back of the auditorium.

The auditorium of Kailan Star Academy has been around for some years, and it is said that it was already in shape before it was acquired by Kailan.The pillars outside the auditorium are engraved with reliefs of grape vines and white birds, which were popular during the Marigold Dynasty of the Xingyao Empire.The faint light shines in through the large pieces of multicolored glass, which makes the kind smile on the face of the Goddess of Starlight spliced ​​on the glass a little sad.

Swift's speed was very fast, and the hem of the pharmacy robe rolled up with his movements.Jiang Yong was dizzy as the corridors circled one after another. He did not expect the internal structure of the auditorium to be so complicated.After turning another corridor in a blink of an eye, the master pharmacist finally stopped.

The corridor here seems to be the display wall of the outstanding figures of the Kailan Star Academy. There are huge portraits nearly one person tall lined up one after another. The figures on the above are either smiling or calm, and their lives are written next to them.Swift waited for Jiang Yong and Amos to come to his side, and then he held the alchemy lamp on the wall next to him with his pale and powerful hand, and turned it clockwise.

Next to the alchemy lamp is a huge dark portrait. In the picture, a middle-aged man wearing a white wig has kind eyes. He is leaning on a cane with a snake head and a huge ruby ​​ring between his left middle finger.This is the founder of the original Cameran Star Academy, Cameran III.He stares at the people outside the portrait with his bright eyes, and the well-preserved portrait does not tell that a century has passed.

With the rotation of the alchemy lamp, the huge portrait slowly turned around, and then a brown wooden door appeared in front of the three of them.Seeing that Swift walked in first, Jiang Yong led the elf who was a little nervous, and entered the wooden door together.

Behind the portrait is a small room with a stale smell in the air. On the heavy wooden table of old oak is a mountain of sheepskin rolls, covered with a thin layer of dust.

Picking up the alchemy lamp that had long run out of fuel on the table, Swift filled it with a fire crystal, and the warm yellow light turned on again, reflecting a small area.The potion master turned around, and the shadow of the light hit his high cheekbones, leaving a shadow.

"I didn't expect that it would be like this to meet you again."

He scanned the faces of Jiang Yong and Amos in turn with some irritated eyes, rolled up his upper lip and sneered inexplicably:

"You're really going to make trouble for me."

Jiang Yong felt Amos's fingers in his hand slightly raised, and he was a little dazed, so he whispered in his ear:

"This is Swift, the potion master, who will be your friend in the future."

"Fei Lian."

Swift's implied warning sounded from the front, and he gouged out Jiang Yong's eyes like a knife, and slowly flicked the dust that did not exist on the ammunition robe:

"Don't do anything superfluous. I don't dare claim to be a friend of this, um, 'big hero.'"

He emphasized the tone of the word "friend", with a bit of sarcasm in his tone:

"As for what happened to him, I do understand somewhat."

Hearing his words, the eyes of Jiang Yong and Amos lit up, looking at Swift expectantly.The master pharmacist didn't take Joe, he pondered for a moment and said:

"You should be able to tell Amos' race from his pointed ears. There are countless elves in Andeste, but the most well-known are the perfectionists who live in the elf forest in the south. These lonely and arrogant guys are collectively called As a natural elf, conceived by the tree of life, she is born with the talent of manipulating plants."

"Natural elves reproduce in a different way from humans. They do not have sex. After the elves who belong to each other form a soul mate under the witness of the tree of life, they will go to the tree of life to choose a bud, and combine themselves and The blood of the lover's fingertips drips in the bud. After three months, the elf will be born from it."

After succinctly and clearly speaking, Swift raised his brows, with a hint of sarcasm on his thin lips, and the words changed:

"Of course, Amos is a half-blood elf, and he didn't come out of those buds. His mother is a nature elf, and his father is the Grand Duke Snow Vulture, the head of the Heller family in the Star Empire. You Just look for any folk tales, and you can see many love stories that are "songs and tears". Heh, half-elves born through nature would not be born, but his mother went to ask for the tree of life, and this was an accident .”

Hearing this tortuous life experience, Jiang Yong subconsciously cast his eyes on Amos standing beside him before he could sigh in his heart.If it was an adult, the person would probably not care and smiled lightly, but now the child in the body lowered his head in frustration after hearing the word "accident", and shrank back into the dark corner secretly.

Seeing Jiang Yong's heart twitch at these actions, he silently took his hand and wanted to send some comfort.The corners of Swift's eyes twitched, his face was still expressionless and cold, but his tone of voice slowed down almost inaudibly.

"According to the natural growth of elves, they will have nearly 50 years of infancy, 100 years of growth, and finally fully grown up. However, Amos is different. With nearly half-human blood, he cannot be regarded as a natural elf. In addition, Some things that happened before and the appearance of the Void Castle two days ago, his adulthood has also been artificially advanced. Calculating the time, it should be the most recent."

"Then why is he like this now?"

Jiang Yong couldn't help asking, but Swift glared at him:

"Ask less and listen more. There are some things you haven't touched yet. Don't be a little bit talented."

He said, turning his eyes to Amos:

"This ring was entrusted to me by you before, and I will return it to the original owner now. Even if you are getting younger and your IQ has dropped now, you should know everything and you should be able to do it."

Without waiting for a response, the potion master threw a dark silver ring over.With his hands in his sleeves, his expression was clouded under the dim alchemy light, and his expression was uncertain.

"There will be major events happening recently, and it is not appropriate for me to keep anyone here. He will live with you first, and you will take him out with you when... When you arrive at Coors City, someone will come to pick him up and lead him to the Forest of Life. "

What he said was vague, but when Jiang Yong wanted to ask again, Swift's eyes sharpened, and he pushed them to the corner of the room without saying anything more.There was also a slightly smaller portrait there. I don't know what he did, but the portrait was cut open, revealing a dark passage.

"This leads to the vicinity of Bihu, you take him back quickly. Don't waste time."

As he said that, he drove Jiang Yong and Amos away, and when the portrait was turned over again, the two disappeared.Swift didn't stay too long, he pressed the silver badge on his chest with his fingertips, his figure blurred, and he appeared in front of his dean's office the next moment.The defense device he secretly set up in front of the office was touched when he left.

Swift's eyes were a little gloomy, he pushed open the door and walked into the office, and the man standing inside added a layer of gloom to his mood.

"Dean, you are back."

The brown-haired man saluted him respectfully, and then gestured to the stack of white papers on the table.

"The principal asked me to help deliver these materials."

"Ximing, don't come into my office without my permission. Huh?"

Swift said with a blank face, and walked towards the desk.The corner of his robe brushed against the table legs with a biting aura, which seemed to represent the displeasure of the master.Ximing has long been used to the meanness of men, and he smiled apologetically when he heard that, his hazel eyes were full of sincerity.

"Too many things have happened recently, and I'm worried about you, Dean. That's why I overstepped."

"Humph."

Swift snorted inexplicably, then flipped through the materials on the table, and said inadvertently:

"Is there anyone who will take the students away this time?"

"Yes, the group arena is temporarily suspended. We will take the lower grade students away in batches on the grounds of going out for practice, so that you can act."

"What grade do you take?"

As if he didn't expect Swift to care about him so much, Ximing was taken aback for a moment, and the next moment he smiled happily and bent his brows and eyes.

"I will take some first-year students of our college to act together with Professor Mosca of the Star Card Academy."

"Postpone your task, I have something for you to do."

Hearing Swift's decisive words, Ximing was really stunned.It took him a while to come back to his senses, and smiled shyly:

"Ok."

Swift glanced thoughtfully at him, and saw that the smile on Ximing's face was not fake, and his cold heart was rarely filled with mixed feelings.Not angry, not angry.No matter how I treat him, I always have a smile on my face.Moreover, he has always praised himself to the new students.

Roughly speaking, Ximing has been with him for six or seven years, and he has always been loyal and dedicated.If it weren't for some recent events, Swift would not be willing to cast suspicious eyes on him.Sighing inwardly, seeing Ximing standing at the table waiting for his order, Swift hesitated for a moment, and took out a bottle of potion from the drawer.

"The black mist contains too many chaotic elements, which are not good for the human body. You drink this bottle of potion before leaving."

He said, staring at Ximing.Seeing that Ximing didn't hesitate at all, he picked up the medicine bottle and drank it in one gulp.In the end, he put down the potion bottle and looked at Swift with some tenderness in his eyes.

"After so many years, the taste of the potion refined by the dean is still so unique."

Seeing that there was no change in Ximing, Swift felt complicated. He didn't know whether it was a big rock falling or more doubts.This is a potion he specially refined to break the camouflage. He used countless precious materials to refine the three vials.Swift is very confident in his level of medicine, not to mention that this bottle of medicine has reached the master level.

Seeing that Ximing hadn't changed in any way, he couldn't help feeling a little guilty for his doubts, but deep down in his heart, the haze of doubts hadn't dissipated yet.With a slight sigh, he tensed his face expressionlessly, and waved his hands:

"As long as the effect of the medicine is achieved, the taste is only secondary. You go, I have to deal with business."

Looking at the back of Ximing leaving, Swift lowered his head and stroked the honey brown tabletop with his fingertips.He still wants to trust again.

The author has something to say: The dean is actually very soft-hearted xd
