The Wizard's Secret Journey

Chapter 78 Work is over
"Is the work done?"

In the evening, Lyman asked aloud.

"Yes, Lord Jinying," Lynn replied.

"Not bad." Lehman praised, estimated and said,
"You can go and rest now. Just remember to come before 6 o'clock tomorrow."

Lynn nodded and turned to leave the underground.

When I got to the ground, it was already pitch black outside.

Lin En exhaled, and inexplicably recalled the time when he was working in his previous life. At that time, he also saw a dark sky when he walked out of the company, and it was rare for him to get off work before the sun set.

However, strictly speaking, if he used all his strength today, he would be able to complete today's work by two or three o'clock in the afternoon.

It was just that Lin En’s working life in his previous life made him understand a profound truth——

Improving efficiency does not bring more free time, but only more exploitation from the boss.

So Lin En chose to hide his shortcomings.

He didn't want Lehmann to assign him more work.

After all, he had always had some doubts in his heart.

"The Wizard Tower is the fruit of Lehman's life's work. A basic energy supply unit is nothing if people know about it, but if they know more precious knowledge..."

Lynn reminded herself secretly.

'Many times, the more you know, the more dangerous it is.'

Underground, next to the Golden Shadow Wizard Tower.

Lehman carefully observed the energy supply unit that Lynn had made today.

After a long time, he shook his head and finally found nothing unusual.

"Unfortunately, this kind of talent is not enough for me to spend energy to cultivate..."

At the headquarters of the Golden Shadow Society on the ground, Lin En was not in a hurry to leave this time. Instead, he found a conspicuous position at the door and waited.

Thanks to his status, people would come up to him and talk to him from time to time, and Lin En responded with a smile.

After a while, a brown and white carriage slowly drove over, with a clear pattern of thorn vines painted on it.

"Why is the carriage of the Horsens School here?"

Some members were whispering nearby.

Lynn put on a proper smile and strode towards the carriage.

This action attracted the attention of the members nearby.

The carriage slowly stopped, and Elena pushed the door and walked out. She was bare-faced and still without any makeup, but she had a tranquil temperament.

"Good evening, Lin En." Elena looked at Lin En with a beautiful smile.

Lin En came forward with a happy smile on his face:

"Good evening, Elena."

The two of them got on the carriage together, leaving only a group of members looking at them with envy.

"It's already enviable enough to be accepted as a student by Master Jinying, but I didn't expect that a beautiful female wizard from the same school would also favor you. Sigh!"

“Don’t forget that Mr. Lin En was a member of the school in the past. He was said to be very talented, but he was accidentally eliminated because he was young and playful. Now that he has come to his senses, he will naturally soar to the sky!”

"..."

In the carriage, as the door closed.

The smile on Lin En's face suddenly faded like smoke. He sat opposite Elena and asked:
"How's the material thing going?"

"It's only been a day, how can it go so fast?" Elena shook her head, but there was still a faint smile on her face.

"A complete set of materials for the Lanbir shuttle requires at least 1200 primary magic stones. Considering the possible damage, at least 1500 primary magic stones are needed.

“This is not a small amount of money…”

Lin En nodded and asked again:
"Is there anything I can do to help you?"

Elena shook her head: "Not for now, if I need it, I will take the initiative to find you."

Lin En nodded, thought about it, and couldn't help asking curiously:
"How do you plan to earn these 1500 primary magic stones?"

"Make money?" Elena glanced at him and shook her head calmly. "There is no time to use such complicated plundering methods at this time. I plan to skip the intermediate steps... I just haven't found a suitable target yet."

Lin En understood what Elena meant. He was silent for a moment, but ultimately said nothing.

However, Elena added one more sentence:
"Don't worry, the targets I'll choose will most likely be 'bad guys'.

“After all… people like this not only have a lot of wealth, but no one will care if they die.

"So, if you are worried about harming innocent people, you can rest assured."

Lin En didn't say anything, but he couldn't help but feel relieved.

The next second, he noticed a hint of mischief in Elena's eyes.

Lynn paused, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she said nothing.

……

In the following days, Lin En lived a very regular life. He went to work underground at 6 o'clock every day and left in the evening.

Elena didn't come to pick him up every time, but she would come to pick him up once every two times.

The fact that the two had a good relationship gradually spread.

More than half a month passed quickly.

Everything was normal in the wizard territory of Hosens, autumn ploughing was proceeding normally, and the feud between the Golden Shadow Society and the Blood Mark Society also came to an end.

Sometimes, when Lin En looked up at the sky, he always felt like he was in the eye of a huge storm.

And after two more inspections, he had mastered the Lambiel shuttle to a proficient level, and it became his only means of passing through the storm.

However, before officially starting to make the shuttle, Lin En still had a hurdle to overcome.

evening.

With the completion of the last section of the pattern, Lynn's work was also completed.

He checked it carefully, confirmed that it was correct, and let out a breath.

"Is it done?" Lehman asked next to him.

Lynn kept his face calm and replied, "Yes, Master Jinying."

Lehman came over to check. Lynn stood aside, took off the headband on his forehead and wiped the sweat off his face.

"Not bad, excellent quality." Lehman turned his head and said with a smile, then suddenly put his hand on Lin En's shoulder.

Lynn stiffened slightly.

Lehman's palm was exceptionally large. He could feel his entire shoulder being wrapped in it, and his neck could vaguely feel the warmth coming from the palm.

Lehman noticed this, and while kneading Lin's shoulders, he chuckled and said:

"Don't be nervous. You've worked hard during this period, Lin En."

Lehman's kneading force became heavier and heavier. Even Lynn's strengthened body felt his bones creaking as if they were about to be crushed.

"It's not hard." Lin En endured the pain, smiled, and asked with just the right amount of hesitation and fear.

"Lord Lehman, how am I supposed to get here then?"

Lehman paused, released Lynn's shoulders, and said:

"When the war breaks out and the Holland School begins to attack the Hosens School's magic formation, you can come here with your friends like you are doing now."

Lin En nodded, with joy on his face:
"Thank you, Mr. Jinying."

He said goodbye to Lehmann and turned to leave.

Lehman looked at his back and sighed in his heart.

"What a pity. After all, I grew up in the school. I didn't expect that I would have a good friend from the school guards..."

If it weren't for this, he would never let Lin En go so easily.

Lehman turned around and continued to work on the finishing touches of the flight module.

'Forget it, he is bound by the contract and cannot reveal anything to the outside world.

"When the war comes, I will probably die in the chaos. There is no need to worry about it."
