The Wizard's Secret Journey

Chapter 155 Impossible Answer
"Master Lin En is looking for me?"

Laurie was stunned, and her heart, which had just relaxed, was instantly tense again.

The first thing she thought of was that Lin En knew what Jenningsen had just said.

As for how they knew - Laurie didn't think that the wizards of the Horsens School didn't have means of setting up surveillance here.

Laurie glared at Jenningsen angrily, took a deep breath, tried to suppress the panic in her heart, and followed the apprentice outside the door towards the killer whale ship.

The weather is sunny today, with white clouds in the blue sky.

The selection of wizard seeds is going on in full swing in the huge Ryan Square.

People lined up in a long queue, soldiers maintained order, and the wizard apprentices in charge of testing talents sat in front of the stage and were busy.

Laurie glanced at the child who had passed the selection next to the wizard apprentice, and a deep envy emerged in her eyes.

Her talent was not bad, and she was already a second-class wizard apprentice at the age of 20.

Unfortunately, what he joined back then was not a school, but a small wizard family, a 'family school'.

The main difference between family schools and ordinary schools is that they are usually controlled by a single family.

This leads to a situation where schools often place more emphasis on blood ties rather than talent and ability.

They also select wizard seeds like the orthodox schools, but only to train them to support the family.

It was also for this reason that Laurie, as an outsider, wasted 15 years in that family school before she could learn the meditation method at the first-class apprentice level.

Of course, Laurie realized it in the fifth year, and it took her 5 years to finally escape from it.

However, most of these schools of thought would not exceed the first level in size.

After all, the wizard's path is a path of continuous elevation of life levels.

There are close relatives among one generation and the next generation, but after three or four generations... they are bound to become strangers.

As the gap in life expectancy grows larger and larger, family blood ties will eventually disappear.

First-level wizards will still care about their family, but when they become second-level and third-level wizards, they will only care about their classmates with the same lifespan as themselves and their direct descendants.

As for more distant family members, they are just passers-by.

hum-

The killer whale ship was right in front of them without them noticing. Laurie withdrew her envious gaze and looked at a small arched door cracked in the dark blue hull in front of her.

The apprentice who led the way strode in, and inside was a bright gray-blue passage.

Laurie followed in small steps. She had never come into contact with such a powerful witchcraft creation before, and she felt curious and nervous.

The interior of the Orca ship was as magnificent as its exterior. Laurie was dazzled by the sight. She found that the floor of the passage here was tough and soft, and she could hardly hear her footsteps.

But as he got closer to the finish line, the footsteps of the apprentice in front of him and his own footsteps all became louder.

Each sound seemed to be stepping on the heart.

And all that curiosity and nervousness turned into fear and worry.

"Mr. Lin En is inside." The apprentice who was leading the way suddenly stopped at the door of the reception room on the second floor.

Laurie stopped in a hurry and almost bumped into the apprentice in front of her.

"okay."

She instinctively tidied her hair, only to find that sweat had appeared on her forehead and wet the ends of her hair.

With a faint light of witchcraft in her hand, Laurie wiped away the sweat, let her hair become dry again, took a deep breath, and knocked on the door.

"Please come in."

Pushing open the door, Laurie saw the exceptionally young official wizard standing at the window with his back to her.

"Master Lin En." Laurie didn't dare to look at him any more, and bowed her head to greet him respectfully. After sending a message to Grace through the school badge, Lin En withdrew his gaze from the Monitoring Square.

Although the remnants of the Holland School had probably already fled, necessary precautions were still necessary. He and Grace would take turns on duty every day to ensure that there would be no accidents in the selection of wizard seeds.

As for why they were on duty in the killer whale boat, it was mainly because of fishing enforcement.

Anyway, the Orca is parked in the square, and most of the portholes can be directly passed through, which will not affect support and can also provide a better view.

"Laurie Lance, right?" Lin En looked at the witch in front of him, came to the sofa and sat down, stretched out his hand and gestured, "Sit down."

"Yes, sir." Laurie moved forward and sat down awkwardly, her legs together, her hands nervously placed on her lower abdomen.

She had a problem since she was a child. Whenever she was particularly nervous or scared, she would feel uncomfortable in her stomach.

At this moment, Laurie was not only nervous, but also scared.

"Do you know why I came to you?"

"I don't know, sir." Laurie shook her head, her voice hoarse.

"Hmm..." Lynn rubbed his chin, trying to figure out how to speak naturally.

Although exchanging the Black Moon Relic was not considered robbery, he also planned to give Laurie enough resources in exchange, so he was not embarrassed to do this because of his high sense of morality.

He just didn't know how to explain that he knew she had the pendant.

It's not like he was just paying attention to the witch's breasts and that's why he discovered she had the pendant.

After hesitating for a moment, Lin En decided to just ask for the pendant in exchange.

As for how he discovered it, let Laurie figure it out himself. After all, he is a first-level wizard, so it is normal for him to have some tricks.

However, just as Lin En was about to speak, he saw the witch in front of him raised her head and suddenly said:

“Sir, what Jenningsen said was just irresponsible speculation. Although I don’t care much about civilians on weekdays, I care about the Kingdom of Ryan!
"And, as I explained, if I had anything to do with all this conspiracy, it would obviously be more beneficial for me to burn the house down completely and erase all traces."

Laurie was right. Grace had indeed set up surveillance equipment in the place where they were held under house arrest.

But she and Lynn were not paying attention to them all the time and knew every word they spoke.

Therefore, her sudden words made Lin En stunned and confused.

But this wizard, who was always cautious and intelligent, instinctively did not show any expression.

He just picked up the tea on the table, silently pondered over Laurie's words, and quickly reacted.

Lin En half-closed his eyes, put down the teacup, stared at the witch in front of him and said abruptly:
"So, you deliberately preserved the traces left by the house because it would be more advantageous for you?"

For the first time, Laurie said that she advised everyone to only destroy the traces of flesh and blood in the house because she was afraid of causing too much commotion.

Jenningson judged that Laurie might be lying because she didn't care about civilians.

But now Laurie said that if she had any connection with this matter, the house should be completely destroyed.

This sentence seems perfect, but in fact, there is another explanation for all this——

That's what Lynn is saying now.

This may seem impossible, but after eliminating all other answers, even the most unlikely answer is the true answer!
Laurie was shocked and forced a smile: "I don't understand what the adults are saying. I'm just afraid of causing unrest in the kingdom."

It was still a good answer, but unfortunately, it was only good words. At this moment, Laurie's intense heartbeat, sweat on her forehead, and hot breathing were all seen by Lynn.

"Laurie Lance——" Lin En straightened up, stroking the teacup, and said lightly:

"If I were you, I would tell you everything right now.

“You know, even if you don’t say it, I have countless ways to make you speak.

"I promise you, they will all be more painful."
