Wizard: You can become stronger by living life to the fullest.

Chapter 187-024: Contract Documents

Instead of going through the main entrance, Luo Xi circled the cabin, eventually fixing his gaze on a corner where a small object, about the size of a palm, stood out.

A mouse hole.

Lina said that Sage Jerac had been experimenting with gold-eating rats for a while, and one of the rats accidentally escaped and made its home in Sage Jerac's study.

After discovering this, Jerak did not stop it. Instead, in order to conduct further observation experiments, he deliberately opened a gap in the magical barrier set up around the house so that the Gold-Eating Rats could freely enter and exit.

However, Jerac himself probably never imagined that one day this gap would become a secret passage for other wizards to invade his study.

Standing in front of a tiny mouse hole, Luo Xi stretched his body, then twisted and shrank rapidly, eventually turning into a small mouse.

"I never expected that Transfiguration would come in handy at this time."

He learned this Transfiguration spell when he was instructing Nicole. If he didn't have it now, he wouldn't be able to get in easily, since the mouse hole was only the size of a palm, and an ordinary person's body simply couldn't squeeze through it.

"Squeak squeak squeak".

After performing a transformation, the wizard will more or less inherit some of the characteristics of the transformed creature, and Rosie unconsciously made a squeaking sound.

Squeaking all the way, he quickly passed through the mouse hole and finally entered the study.

"Are you in?"

As soon as he entered the study, Lina's voice rang out. Rosie looked up and saw a mirror on the desk, in which Lina's image was reflected.

As a tower spirit, her original duties were not limited to just managing the library. She needed to participate in many aspects of the tower's operation, including taking care of the wizard Jerac's daily life as his assistant. Otherwise, she wouldn't know the place so well.

She was originally free to come and go as she pleased, but after the war began, the wizard Jerak interrupted some of the magical circuits inside the tower, which prevented her from entering.

However, she can still remotely control some of the facilities inside. The mirror on the table is one of them. It is a communication mirror, which is used to communicate remotely with other wizards.

The little mouse hopped around on the floor twice, its body twisting and enlarging before quickly returning to Rosie's original form.

He nodded: "Well, it went fairly smoothly."

Lina chuckled and said, "That's because you're lucky. It's not usually this deserted here."

As the private residence of the Sage Jerac, the usual guards are certainly far more numerous than this, including alchemical golems, patrolling modified knights, and so on, keeping a tight watch on things so that even an insect would find it difficult to fly in without permission.

However, due to the war, these defensive measures had all been deployed with the Jerac wizards, which created a vacuum that gave Rosie the opportunity to exploit.

After a pause, Lina proudly patted her chest and said, "But as long as Wizard Jerac himself isn't here, I have a way to get you up here."

This is true.

There are so many intricacies here; if it weren't for Lina, the true mole who is honest and straightforward, he wouldn't have been able to get here so easily.

Luo Xi nodded and said, "Yes, you're amazing. Okay, enough chit-chat, just tell me where the contract is."

After all, it was the living quarters of a sage. Although he knew that the sage was no longer here and might not have another chance to come, Rosie was still a little nervous.

Lina said, "What's the rush? We're already here, why would we run away?"

She pointed to the leftmost row of bookshelves and said, "See that bookshelf on the left? Pull out the third drawer from the bottom. Be careful when you pull it out. Stand to the side of the drawer, don't face it directly. This drawer is a bit long, be careful not to bump into it."

Rosie didn't quite understand what Lina meant, but she still stood obediently on one side of the drawer and pulled it out. The next second, she understood.

"Splash!"

Suddenly, the drawer popped out, extending seven or eight meters in length, like a long, protruding tongue.

"Tsk tsk, so many! Are these all contracts and documents?"

The drawer was crammed full of parchment, all in the same style and format. Rosie picked up a few at random and looked at them; they were all contracts, contracts with all sorts of strange magical beings.

Lina said, "Of course, that mad wizard Jerac has done countless magical experiments, and many people have signed contracts with him."

Luo Xi frowned and asked, "Which one of these is yours?"

There are countless contracts and documents here. If we search for them one by one, it would take forever.

Lina said, "Open the cabinet on top. There's a short wand inside. Use that wand to call my name and gently tap this drawer."

Rosie did as she was told, opened the cabinet above, and took the wand that Lina had mentioned.

He tapped the drawer twice and called out Lina's name. Instantly, the documents in the drawer rippled like ocean waves. When the ripples reached a particular document, it popped out.

Rosie snatched the document and examined it; it was indeed Lina's contract.

Lina asked, "Did you get it?"

Luo Xi raised the document in his hand: "Yes, I got it."

Lina jumped up with joy: "Great! Come back quickly!"

After receiving the contract, Luo Xi didn't delay any longer and immediately headed back. He returned via the same route and made it back to the library without incident.

"Haha, a contract! It really is my contract!"

Looking at the contract in Rosie's hand, Lina was so happy that she danced around in the air.

She had been trapped in this tower for far too long, and now she desperately wanted to leave, anywhere at all.

"Hurry, hurry and burn it for me, burn it and I'll be free."

This time, Rosie didn't rush to agree. Instead, she said, "Burning it is easy now, but I'd like to know what happens afterward? How can I guarantee that Miss Lina won't just pack up and leave, going back on our agreement?"

Now that this contract document has been burned, Lina will be completely free. The soul beings of the Tower Spirit are extremely powerful and can freely travel through space regardless of their location.

Luo Xi had already witnessed her complete knowledge of this tower; with his abilities, there was absolutely no way he could control her.

So, what should we do?
