Chapter 297 (2/2)
The old man slowly opened his mouth and said, ”as a wizard consultant around the prince, it is the peak and end of his life for other wizards, but for you, it can only be a springboard; grasp what you can grasp and hold what you can hold - mean, vicious, aboveboard, the way is not important, and the result is the most important!”
”With all due respect, you're not encouraging me?” the black haired wizard joked, ”grab prestige and climb up...”
”But this is what you need and what we need.” corona looked at Loren with appreciation: ”in the face of dangerous enemies and forces, you also need an awesome position in addition to strength; and the wizard tower also needs an ally with enough identity to share the pressure of the church for us.”
”I remember you said that wizards are the future, and the past is destined to make way for the future?”
”Yes, but we have to fight for the future with our own hands.” brushing his old and wrinkled hands, the old man silently opened his eyes:
”For the future that is destined to come, we should do our best to ensure that everything is safe!”
…………………………
Walking in the alley, the black haired wizard who watched the carriage leave stared at the sunset and the burning cloud like sunset, quietly enjoying the scenery that is not available every day.
There was no one around the street, and it would take half an hour for the nearest patrol to find itself. Before they came, they had plenty of scenery and enjoyed a rare time alone.
No wonder
”Aren't you ready to come out?” Lauren, who sighed and didn't look back, whispered:
”Or... Are you going to wait until I stand in front of you?”
The alley was still empty, and Loren standing in place seemed to be talking to himself.
At the next moment, a second shadow appeared in the alley originally covered with sunset. The black haired wizard slightly raised the corner of his mouth: ”when did you follow?”
Edward's expression was ugly. He closed his mouth and stared at Lauren's back. His eyes seemed to be struggling.
”It was just an accident.” the indifferent night watchman murmured, and his voice came from behind Lauren: ”I should have returned directly to the wizard tower, but I suddenly wanted to come to you on the way, and as a result...”
”Unexpected, right?” the dark haired wizard chuckled, and Edward's expression was even worse.
”Yes, unexpectedly...”
The night watchman found that he had nothing to say except this.
Loren Turin is not a real night watchman, and he is not qualified to ask him according to the standards of night watchman; Similarly, he didn't have to tell himself everything.
Although the two sides can barely be regarded as friends, this friendship is not strong enough to open their hearts - what's more, even if they are real ”friends”, there are few things they cheat and hide from each other?
Even Peter FASA had secrets he had never told them; On the contrary, Edward himself is not Wanquanhe, as he said, just a little gangster from gutter and lane.
At least, how could a small gangster in the gutter and lane use the expensive weapon of stabbing sword?
Loren just smiled and looked sideways at the indifferent night watchman with a indifferent expression: ”can you tell me what you found?”
There was a long silence, time was slowly passing, and the patrol would come at any time.
”... I didn't see anything,” Edward said slowly. ”I just bumped into you on my way back, that's all.”
Don't do superfluous things, just do your part, and try to take care of friends and trustworthy guys - this is Edward's ”secret of survival” and his way from a gangster to a night watchman.
But what if you have to take risks to help your friends?
If the opportunity is in front of you, you only need to do a little extra things, a little more ”ambition”?
”Before we go back, can you answer me a little question, Edward?” Lauren turned and smiled and said, ”in advance, it's just a hypothesis, hypothesis... I can provide such an opportunity for you to replace rut infinite and become the leader of the night watchman
Will you agree? ”
