I, the wizard, the foolish Buddha.

Chapter 77: Chaos Runes

Wallace and Roland walked through the castle, heading towards his office. Occasionally, when they met some wizards on the way, they looked at Wallace in surprise for a moment, then greeted him warmly, congratulating him on his promotion to senior apprentice and deputy director of strategic logistics.

Roland was now very concerned about Wallace's identity. The ballet ghost might not cause any trouble today, but if something happened to Wallace, he would die today!
"Wallace, the wizards of Arakkar didn't cause you any trouble, did they?"

Wallace looked at Roland meaningfully. "It doesn't matter whether I have any problems or not. What matters is whether Alexandra still has value in existence. As long as the family is still there, I won't be a demon even if I am. But if the family is destroyed and the white wizards begin to settle accounts with us, then not only will I be a demon, but you and the young lady will be demons too, and everyone will be a demon!"

Roland secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Alexandra, this big tree, is indeed shaky, but as long as it doesn't fall, she will be fine.

At this moment, the two saw Benjamin, the temporary director of the admissions office, hurriedly crossing the courtyard in front of the corridor window.

Wallace sneered, "Benjamin is dead today. With so many people wanting to eat him alive, he actually dared to leave the academy."

Roland shook his head.

Wallace had just spoken to Roland on the way.

Benjamin's background was very clean; he was a die-hard fan of the White Wizarding Family. He also seemed to be from the Dean's family. If he died, the consequences would be huge.

But Wallace and his group were ready to face it.

Roland thought to himself, "Let Wallace and the others fight. I'm fine with killing people. I don't understand politics or dogfighting. I'm just a lowly apprentice. If Alexandra, this big tree, really falls, then I, a small monkey, will have to scatter like the monkeys when the tree falls."

"However, I need to find a quiet place to practice. I can't live in the academy, otherwise I will get involved in this factional dispute."

Wallace shared this sentiment. He told Roland that politics and dogfighting were all empty talk. If one had sufficient strength, even if he was a dumb stone, he could stand in the academy and calm any storm.

Roland agreed deeply.

"So, things like these dogfights are my responsibility. Don't worry about the mess at the academy; your responsibility is to cultivate. I'll arrange a quiet place for you to cultivate outside the academy. You can come back and listen to the classes during normal times."

If you encounter someone blocking your way outside, kill them and bury them! I'll take care of things, and when I can't take care of them anymore, you can run away with the lady.

Grow up quickly, my little sapling. As an old man, you are destined not to go far. I am counting on you to protect me from the wind and rain in the future."

Roland secretly sighed, he was indeed tied to Alexandra's pirate ship, but with Wallace's favor, it was not so easy for him to get off the ship.

At this time, the two had arrived at Wallace's office.

The office door is decorated with a strange, beautiful snake. Its image bears some resemblance to the "Snake Beauty" and appears to possess some of the Snake Beauty's mystical powers.

When Wallace came to the statue, the lamia statue opened its eyes and asked a riddle.

This puzzle is somewhat similar to the 'Sphinx puzzle', but it has no standard answer.

However, both the question and the answer were set by Wallace, so after he gave the answer, the lamia statue crawled away, revealing the door behind it.

"Wait, Miss Maggie," Wallace called to the serpent statue. "This is Roland. He can come into the office when I'm not around. So next time you see him opening the door, please keep your eyes open."

The lamia stopped, looked at Roland, and said, "He must guess the riddle."

Wallace held his chest and said, "Of course, Roland will abide by your rules of the game."

Wallace told Roland that next time he came, he must go through the main gate and not use any other means to enter. Otherwise, the consequences would be serious.

In addition, the riddle of the lamia changes every day, and Wallace will tell Roland the answer. Roland must answer correctly when he enters the door, otherwise the consequences will be very serious.

Wallace said: "This is not a serpent, but a treasure created by the wizards of the Black Abyss through their research on serpents."

The two pushed the door open and entered.

The office is not very big, but it is independent, and there is a small lounge at the back.

Wallace told Roland that there was actually a small secret room inside an oil painting in the office, but only he and his senior knew about it - and now Roland also knew about it.

It seems that although the White Wizards control the Black Abyss Academy, they are not fully aware of the secrets of Black Abyss Castle. The academy has hundreds of secret chambers, large and small, and the White Wizards only know one-fifth of them. Therefore, many unknown people are active in the academy's underground world.

For example, the old school workers who are wanted.

The two men sat down in front of and behind the desk, and then the smile on Wallace's face disappeared. He looked at Roland with a dark face and said, "This office is absolutely safe. You can tell me the truth now."

Roland was speechless and asked, "What truth?"

Wallace slammed the table. "What else could it be?! Your magic power has increased so much, what did you encounter?! And my book, my book has changed, what did you seal?!"

Roland's expression changed, and he selectively told Wallace what happened yesterday.

Wallace frowned when he heard Roland dancing.

"Dancing? What dancing? The ballet ghost is standing right in front of you, who are you dancing with?"

Roland gave Wallace a cautious 'guess' look.

Wallace's expression became extremely interesting.

"No wonder your magic power has grown so much. How long have you been in contact with it? How long have you not danced with her?!"

"56 minutes."

Wallace: “???”

Wallace had known Ballet Ghost for over a hundred years and had participated in the writing of many of the old Black Abyss school rules. He had heard countless stories about Ballet Ghost, but never anything like this.

Dancing with a ballet ghost was outrageous, and for nearly an hour?
Wallace asked with a look of doubt on his face, "What are you doing? Are you having a party with it? If you can avoid it like this, why don't you run?"

Roland said, "I want to, too! But Lilith is nearby!"

Wallace suddenly realized that Roland could never be Lilith's opponent.

If Roland stood beside the Ballet Ghost, Lilith might still be able to avoid attacking him. But if he broke away from the Ballet Ghost and faced Lilith, he would probably be toyed with by the succubus in a hundred different ways.

Wallace asked anxiously, "So, while you were dealing with the ballet ghost, you were secretly carving a magic circle on the ground? Trying to seal Lilith away?"

Roland nodded. "Right! Unless I seal her away, I have no way to escape, so I set a trap for her. Sure enough, she couldn't contain her curiosity and came over to watch. Then, I used the ballet ghost to lure her into the magic circle and activated the seal!"

Wallace showed an expression of ecstasy.

"Hahahaha! Lilith, you stinky son of a bitch! This day has come for you too!"

Wallace thought Roland had sealed Lilith. He excitedly stood up from his seat and urged, "Come on, call her out! She's robbed me so many times! If you can help me get it back, I'll give you 30%... No, I'll give you 50%!"

Roland said with a strange look on his face, "She doesn't seem to be sealed in."

Wallace was stunned for a long time and asked, "Then what did you seal?"

"I do not know."

Roland took out the Demon Book and handed it to Wallace carefully: "How about you take a look?"

Wallace frowned. He took the Demon Book and flipped through it, finding that the content about 'enslaved demons' was filled with garbled runes. These runes were constantly shifting, looking like wriggling tadpoles.

In the place of the demon's true name, it was written: [Leona%￥? ? ]

Wallace flung the book away like a cat whose tail was stepped on.

"I can't handle this!"
