Ark Undead

With that, the immortal left the place.

boom!

Hearing the door close, Tianhuo's mind went blank for a moment.

While feeling relaxed, Tianhuo also felt ashamed and somewhat annoyed.

He really left?

That's it?

As a noble lady, Tianhuo naturally received much literary influence from a young age.

But no literary work ever depicts such a plot.

This was beyond Tianhuo's comprehension.

Standing by the window, watching the undead walk out under the cover of night, Tianhu remained silent for a long time before finally letting out a sigh.

Her thoughts had returned to Originium magic, and she was gradually beginning to understand the Undead's ideas.

If it weren't for this break, Tianhuo would probably have been exhausted by the research.

Especially when I was studying the emotions of flames, strange feelings that vaguely appeared in my heart.

Looking back now, Tianhuo still feels a bit scared.

She turned around and saw a letter on the shoe cabinet by the door.

Tianhuo suddenly remembered that there was an exchange meeting to be held between Victorian sorcerers and upper-class nobles in three days.

Perhaps I can invite Mr. Undying to attend with me then.

I guess I should thank him for helping me out today.

106. High-class banquet

Two or three days have passed since I last reminded Tianhuo.

Over the past few days, the Undead have still not received any letters from Tianhuo.

However, the Undying Man wasn't in a hurry. If he still hadn't received any news from Tianhuo in a few days, he would go to Tianhuo's house again.

Tianhuo's attitude towards the study of fire was something that even the Undead found somewhat strange.

Because the power of the spell [Charm] itself is not that strong. It is more about using flames to simulate a substance that relaxes the nerves, making it easier for others to believe in you.

However, this spell has one unique characteristic: it can achieve almost complete mental control over those who crave fire. Of course, this still depends on the target's mental strength.

The situation with Tianhuo at that time had already exceeded the scope of the hints, which shows that Tianhuo's thirst for flames was not low.

The fact that someone so thirsty for flames was quite unexpected to the Undead. He even considered whether to help Tianhuo solve the problem of her flames dissipating.

Although the price is somewhat high, if Tianhuo really wants to learn from him, the Undead will certainly not be stingy.

Based solely on Tianhuo's initial attitude when communicating with him, the Undead could easily answer her questions.

As for deeper solutions to the problem, the Undying Man hasn't thought about that yet.

When a sorcerer wants to take on a disciple, it's not just talk; it's a genuine entrustment of a part of their own life to the disciple.

Therefore, sorcerers often have to go through very strict screenings before accepting disciples and entrusting them with the most crucial things.

Currently, the Undead have no such idea, and Tianhuo has not made this request to him.

So, for the next two days, the Undead did not leave the house, spending his time observing Kroos's life.

Under the supervision of the Undead, Kroos had to brush his teeth and wash his face every day, and every two days he would go to Hannah's place to take a bath together.

Under the joint supervision of Hannah and the Undead, the blonde idiot is now able to recognize two things.

The toothpaste is sweet.

You shouldn't eat your toothbrush.

Apart from that, there has been no progress so far.

However, not being able to eat a toothbrush is already an extremely restrained thing for Kroos, so we can't ask for too much.

Finally, on this day, there was a knock at the door of the Undead.

When the immortal got up and went to open the door, all he saw was a motorcycle speeding away.

It looked like they were frantically running for their lives, as if the Undead were some kind of terrifying evil spirit.

It seems that his image as a Victorian ghost is quite effective in the Lower City.

Looking down, the immortal saw a letter.

After picking it up from the ground, the Undead looked at the cover. It was sealed with a flame symbol to indicate that no one had opened it, and the recipient's address was written next to it.

Upon seeing this seal, even the Undead knew that it must be a letter sent by Tianhuo.

He simply stood at the door, opened the letter in his hand, and read it from beginning to end.

First, Tianhuo thanked the Undead for her previous help, and then informed the Undead that there was an experiment tomorrow that required her help, hoping that the Undead could go to her laboratory after noon tomorrow.

The next line of text mentions a banquet.

“Mr. Undead, from our previous conversations, I can confirm that your skill in fire magic is no less than mine.”

"Although I am ashamed to continue to have you as my assistant, there are some things that cannot be publicized because you have just registered as a warlock and are also an infected person."

"The day after tomorrow night, there will be a large noble banquet in the upper city. Other sorcerer masters will be attending, and you will also have the opportunity to meet many high-ranking nobles. If you are willing to come with me, I will certainly introduce you to my colleagues."

"You will remain my assistant, but after the banquet, you will be able to go out on your own and become a well-known independent sorcerer in Victoria."

"At the same time, you may also come into contact with two royalist parties at the banquet, which are parties closely associated with Victoria. If they extend an olive branch to you, your social circle will be greatly expanded."

"Your friend, Heavenly Fire."

The undead could somewhat anticipate what was to come. But the mention of the banquet later on caused him to pause for a moment in surprise.

He hadn't even told Tianhuo about attending the banquet, and she brought it up herself?

However, since Tianhuo intends to take him to the banquet and promote him, the Undead doesn't need to tell Tianhuo again.

Moreover, the banquet she mentioned featured the names of two royal factions. It seems that Skyfire also has some understanding of the undercurrents beneath Victoria, knowing that they are the Lion Aslan and the Red Dragon Drak.

Vina and Hannah should also inform him in the next day or two so that he can be prepared.

Since the investigation into the Red Dragon Drak is underway, the Undead might also be assigned by Vina to do some special tasks.

As expected, just as the Undying Man predicted.

Just as he finished reading the letter, he heard a shout.

"Mr. Wandering Soul!"

The Undead was still standing at the door. He looked up and saw Vina and Hannah.

One was blond, the other white-haired; both were dressed casually and jogged up to the Undead.

"Come in first."

The immortals made way for the door and led the two into the house.

Kroos was still brushing her teeth when she turned around, spitting out "Run-Run," and waved her left hand to greet the two people.

"Hanla! Weila! Good morning!"

Good morning, Xiao Ke!

Hannah ran over with a smile and ruffled Kroos's head twice.

The reason she likes Kroos so much is probably because Kroos is a blonde girl, and she has some things in common with Vina.

But Hannah didn't dare to stroke Vina's hair, so she could only stroke the blonde idiot dog's hair to satisfy her craving.

"Good morning, Xiao Ke."

Vina suppressed her urge to stroke Xiao Ke's hair, sat down by the campfire, and looked directly at the Undead.

"Mr. Undying, there's new information."

"Draco?"

"The immortal asked."

"Or...an assassin?"

"All."

Vina carefully took out a piece of paper from her bosom, unfolded it, and showed it to the Undead.

"The mask you're talking about, is it this kind of mask?"

The Undead stared intently, and the mask depicted there looked exactly like the real one, identical to the mask the Undead had seen before.

Even the circular pattern on top has been perfectly replicated.

Yes, this is it.

The immortal pointed to the ring on the mask.

"Simple, circular, without beginning or end."

"Then we can be certain that the assassination attempt we suffered was carried out by the same group of people."

Vina folded the paper in her hand and threw it into the campfire in front of the Undead, destroying the document.

"In the past two days, some people have seen people wearing this mask entering and leaving the city hall through the back door. Also, the Drake family's forces have been frequently entering and leaving the city hall."

"At the same time, something strange has happened among the infected: infected people are going missing, and the number has exceeded three digits."

Vina continued speaking.

"Moreover, these infected people all have one characteristic: they have no family and live alone. If it weren't for the fact that two or three of our informants also disappeared in the infected people's community, we wouldn't have noticed this situation."

The immortal nodded.

"continue."

"Although no one has seen anyone associated with Drak or the Assassin organization in the infected community since our last conversation, we should still be vigilant about this."

"Given the current situation, the sudden disappearance of these infected individuals, and the fact that their numbers are not small, is what I fear most. I wonder who has instigated them to reignite the conflict between the people and the infected."
