841 Karls Idea (2/2)
”It's just one more day of waiting. It shouldn't be too dangerous.”
Secret channels? Professionals? Donnie suddenly recalled Karl's background. As if he saw the dawn in the middle of a night, he asked excitedly, ”Is it really okay? Thank you in advance!”
With Karl's identity, it shouldn't be difficult to deal with such a stealthy schemer.
If he really had the most terrifying strength, he need not hide in the shadow at all, and he could've overthrown the Congress to do whatever he wanted!
Jones and Sammy were equally excited. They looked at Karl at the same time and were finally relieved after Karl nodded. Then, one of them further moved back into the corner, and the other began to observe the surroundings sleepily.
”I thought that you would encourage us to investigate on our own…” Relieved, Donnie said casually.
Karl chuckled. ”Do I look like such a reckless and inconsiderate man?”
Yes! Donnie, Sammy, and Jones thought to themselves.
”I have the keen intuitions that come from my parents. When I sense that something is too tricky for me, I'll ask for help,” Karl said proudly. ”I'll send the message first thing in the morning. Then, we'll go to Mr. Felipe's open class.”
He seemed to have forgotten his previous fright and become ”carefree” again.
”Yes, there's Mr. Felipe's open class. I have to get some sleep.” Sammy nodded, so eager to sleep that he did not seem to have had any nightmare.
Although Felipe did not specialize in ghosts, he was the most famous necromancer in the past three decades. Therefore, Sammy admired him and wanted to attend his open class.
As he spoke, Sammy lay down again. In no more than one minute, his roommates heard the familiar breath after he was sound asleep.
Karl raised his eyebrow. ”I envy him so much. He can fall asleep whenever he wants. Insomnia is not a problem for him at all.”
”That's a whole wrong way to interpret it…” Jones said in a low voice. How inert and befuddled one's brain must be if they could still sleep after such a nightmare? ”My roommates are truly all monsters…”
Donnie glanced at him. So are you, and I am the only normal person here!
However, according to Karl, the enormous undead creature I saw was the Original Body?
......
Outside of the Heidler Magic College, the slanted tombstones rose from the ground, and the graves behind them were scattered around a gigantic room in a rather mysterious way.
Two people descended from the dim, pale sky of the World of Souls. A young man with golden hair and a child's face smiled at the man next to him. ”Mr. Felipe, are you planning to establish a branch of the Heredity Laboratory?”
It seemed that he made use of the power of the defense, which allowed him to utter in the Cemetery of Eternal Sleep.
Felipe was still tall, slim, and handsome, with a sickly face. With his hands in the pockets of his black coat, he looked around and said briefly, ”Many factors that affect my research can be avoided here.”
He was only wearing two badges on his chest. One of them was the badge that was a hand holding a quill, suggesting that he was a member of the Arcana Review Board, and the other badge looked like a pale hand. There were neither arcana badges nor magic ones.
Seeing that Felipe had no desire for communication, the man with a child's face smiled and accompanied him through the Cemetery of Eternal Sleep to the gate of the college. He did not dare to say anything else.
Suddenly, Felipe stopped and stared at the dark tomb at the center, squinting.
His face did not seem to change, but it was grimmer than before.
”Mr. Felipe?” the man with a child's face asked in confusion.
Felipe moved his right hand, which was wearing a white glove, out of his pocket and pointed at the center. ”The scent of death there seems more intense now.”
”What about it?” The man with a child's face did not feel anything wrong at all.
Felipe snorted but did not bother to explain himself. He simply gave an order, ”After the open class, give me the records of the defense in the last three days.”
