Weird Wizarding World

  Chapter 349 As a friend

   "I want to know why you are here, Lord Shelley?"

  Colin didn't answer her words, but asked with a serious face.

  He chased the ice and snow monster all the way, but found Shelley in the lair of this suspected ice and snow monster.

   It is obviously impossible to say that there is no connection between the two.

  And if there is a connection... Colin still remembers the tragedy of the previous attack on Gubei Village.

  Following Colin's words fell.

  The atmosphere between the two suddenly became serious.

  It was only then that Colin realized that the cave in front of him was so peaceful.

  The circular blizzard wall surrounding the spine-like glacier seems to shut out everything, including sound.

  The translucent blue cave wall shines brightly under the shimmering light from Shelley's hair, and the beauty inside the deep cave is like another unknown world.

  The light from the white hair on Shelley's head gradually disappeared, and the cave began to become dark.

  Chick.

  With a thought, Colin used the light technique to summon a white ball of light above the two.

  Soft white light spreads, covering the mysterious Shelley in front of her with a layer of hazy white gauze.

  The translucent light blue skin on her body has not yet fully returned to the appearance of an ordinary person. Although it has become as white as milk, it is still somewhat transparent, like warm jade, with a refined beauty.

  Shelley remained silent, her expression was as calm as the one she saw at noon every day at the True Knowledge Society.

  But if you look closely, you can find a hidden hesitation between its beautiful eyebrows and eyes.

   This spine-like glacier and the special state just now are Shelley's biggest secret.

  Since about ten years ago, no one in this world has known this secret.

  In other words, everyone who knew it is dead.

  Some were killed by others, and some were killed by Shelley himself.

  ‘Do you want to continue to bury this secret? '

  Shelley didn't know, but the only thing she was sure of was that she didn't want to kill Colin to silence her.

   This may seem like a crazy idea, but it is true.

  If it were in other places, perhaps Shelley would not be so "arrogant", but here, in "Tromay", even a fourth-level wizard would not be able to hurt her, at most, he could save his own life.

  If Colin had woken up Shelley a little later, what he would have to face would be more than just some moving ice walls and biting cold air.

   It's just that Shelley didn't want to, she didn't want to kill the wizard in front of her.

  The wizard in front of her is her rare friend... sort of.

   Of course, she doesn't actually have any friends at all.

   Not to mention friends who can communicate with each other on boring and lonely witchcraft knowledge.

  The only one who can really be called a friend is probably only Colin.

  During the True Knowledge Association, although most of the content of the two people's discussions at noon every day was related to knowledge, Colin always said something off topic.

Although most of the time she doesn’t respond, she actually listens carefully... She still remembers the New Year’s dinner, the delicious fish soup, the novel experience of preparing gifts for the first time, and Colin’s high spirits in the courtyard Brilliant fireworks.

  It is a great happiness to be able to communicate with a person who agrees with the three views. Many people never have a relaxed and pleasant conversation after they grow up.

   But they are every ordinary noon.

  Colin stared at the silent Shelley, watching the shimmering white hair on the top of her head slowly go out, and the ends of the hair fell fluffy to the delicate chin.

   "I came after a snow monster."

  He paused for a moment, breaking the silence on his own initiative.

  He believes that the ice and snow monster should not be released by Shelley to slaughter the villagers of Gubei Village.

  Perhaps those ice and snow monsters are Shelley’s pets, but due to special reasons, Shelley neglected to take care of them...

   Negligence... also seems to be responsible.

  Colin pursed his lips slightly, no matter what, at least he believed that Shelley was not the kind of wizard who would massacre ordinary people for no reason.

   It can even be said that Shelley is the wizard he has seen, apart from himself, who cares the least about the class gap with ordinary people.

   At the New Year's dinner that day, her attitude towards Renee was very natural, even if the Renee sisters dined with them.

   Talking to Renee during the meal is also extremely equal.

   It can be seen that this is not intentional, but that Shelley seems to communicate with everyone in this way.

   Not only are they equal, but they are also very straightforward, regardless of the world.

   There are no pleasantries, and there is no politeness. If you are not interested, you will not say a word.

   In contrast, Lilian, the senior who grew up in a wizard family, treated Renee very peacefully, and even learned how to make roast goose from Renee.

  But Colin knew that those were more for his own face.

   "Ice Monster?"

  Shelley raised her head and looked at him suspiciously. The blizzard in her eyes had completely disappeared, leaving only the clear light blue like the ice wall next to her.

  Colin looked at the doubts in her eyes that didn't seem to be fake, and couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart. He stared at Shelley with blue eyes and continued:

   "There are some blue monsters that are similar to ice elements and can turn into blizzards and ice giants. After smashing them, they can still move with an ice crystal core. If they are ignored, they will soon return to their full state."

  Both eyes are blue, but Colin's is more like a blue sea, while Shelley's is like a light blue ice wall.

"I haven't seen the ice and snow monster you mentioned." Shelley shook her head and denied it again. She tilted her head and felt the surrounding area slightly, and asked again: "Did it come in from here? I didn't feel it." to the presence of other living creatures."

   "It's dead, I killed it." Colin shook his head, heaved a sigh of relief for some reason, and then added:

   "I beat it to the core in Gubei Village, and then chased it all the way to here... I thought this was its lair."

   "This is not here, this is the special..." Shelley reacted, closed his mouth, paused, and confirmed: "In short, this is absolutely impossible to be the lair of some ice and snow monster."

   "I believe you, Shelley...but what exactly is this place, and why are you here?"

  Shelley did not answer, she looked at Colin carefully, and suddenly said:

   "If you guessed correctly, you seem to have advanced to a second-tier wizard, Your Excellency Colin?"

  Colin's expression froze slightly, and he fell silent.

  Seeing this, Shelley slightly bent his mouth, stroked the hair on the side of his ear and asked:

   "Where is the remains of that ice monster?"

   Colin glanced at her.

  Shelley's complexion had already returned to a calm look, even if he looked at it, she couldn't see the slightest flaw, she just watched him calmly.

  Those beautiful blue eyes were so clear that they reflected Colin's figure.

   "At the entrance of the cave." Colin looked away and pointed behind him.

  Boom—

   Without looking at Shelley's movements, the ice wall behind him suddenly moved aside automatically, revealing the passage from which he came.

   "Let's go and have a look." Shelley walked over Colin and took the lead.

  Colin stood in place for a few seconds, and finally stepped forward to follow.

   Tap Tap —

  The two walked side by side, the bright ball of light illuminated the road ahead, and also elongated the shadows of the two. In the silent passage, only the sound of their footsteps echoed.

   After a while, Shelley turned his head and asked: "Your Excellency Colin, so you have indeed advanced to a second-level wizard, right? The fireball and the fire element just now are not witchcraft that a first-level wizard can cast multiple times."

  Colin turned his head to look at her, fell silent for a moment, and nodded slowly.

   It doesn't make sense not to admit it. Leaping spells can be explained by talent, but the intensity of the battle just now is definitely not something a first-level wizard can support.

   "If I remember correctly, when Ocassie brought you here to join the True Knowledge Society, she said that you have just advanced to the first-level senior wizard.

   "Besides, it seems that the time for you to become a full-fledged wizard was not long ago."

   "Such a cultivation speed is not unpleasant, and it is precisely because of this that your Excellency has also become the new golden feather of the Xisheng School."

   Shelley stared ahead, and continued on his own:

   "However, from today's point of view, the golden feather of the Xisheng School may not be enough to reflect your talent. Who would have thought that you would advance again in a short period of time, and now you are already a second-tier wizard!"

  Shelley's tone was mixed with sincere admiration. She really didn't expect Colin to progress so fast.

   "What do you want to say, Your Excellency Shelley?" Colin stopped, his body tensed slightly, and his heart sank slightly.

   This abnormal advancement speed is related to his biggest secret - the golden paper.

  Even though he had a good impression of Shelley, he was still a little nervous at the moment.

  Shelley also stopped, turned around, and looked up at him slightly, her snow-white hair slid down her soft cheeks, revealing her white and greasy neck.

  Shelley’s expression was serious. She stared at Colin with her beautiful light blue eyes and said word by word:

   "I think this should be your secret, Lord Colin."

  Colin remained silent, also staring at Shelley.

  The latter looked calm, and continued: "I will keep it a secret for you—as a friend."

  Colin was slightly taken aback, but after Shelley finished saying this, he turned around and continued walking forward.

  He caught up with Shelley, was silent for a moment, and said slowly:

   "Today I saw nothing, and I have never been here."

   Paused and continued: "Because we are friends, right, Shelley?"

   "Yes." Shelley nodded slowly.

  The two of them looked at each other with a sense of relief.

   "I never thought you could talk so much about things other than knowledge." Colin paused, and said with the corners of his mouth raised.

   "I just don't like it, it's not that I can't." Shelley gave him a blank look.

  Colin raised his eyebrows: "I thought you had facial paralysis."

  Although she had never heard this word before, Shelley quickly realized it and gave Colin a blank look again.

   "This is a contract." Shelley thought for a while and took out a brown-yellow contract.

  She took the lead in writing a clause that would not reveal Colin's specific strength, and then handed it to Colin.

  Colin took over the contract in a good manner.

  This doesn't necessarily mean that Shelley doesn't trust him, on the contrary, it may be that Shelley wants him to feel more secure.

  In fact, if Shelley did not come up with a contract, he would also propose to sign a contract.

   This is not distrust, but to deepen trust.

  Watching the contract burn out in the flames, I felt that there was a little imprint on the soul, and the atmosphere between the two became more harmonious.

  They both tacitly did not ask each other sensitive topics.

  Colin no longer struggled with where this place is, and Shelley no longer obsessed with his strength.

  So, the two began to chat about ice and snow monsters.

   "So there are two ice and snow monsters in total. You have eliminated one on the spot in Gubei Village, and the other one has only the core left, and you chased it all the way here?"

Shelley frowned: "The ice and snow monsters you mentioned are very likely to be strange creatures born in the extreme north, but most of them will not actively attack humans. Polluted by the gods."

   Colin frowned.

   "God is the biggest cancer in this world."

  Shelley skipped the topic after saying a few words. She looked at the tunnel ahead and said slowly:

   "The land in the extreme north is extremely vast, and there are few people. On the surface, it seems to be a dead land without life.

  But behind the scenes, like other places in the Sia continent, there are many lovely creatures living here... Well, if you go beyond here and go a little further, you can see a kind of flightless bird. "

  "They are in groups, small and chubby, a little clumsy on land, but flexible like fish in the sea."

  Colin nodded slightly, hearing Shelley's description inexplicably familiar.

  'A bird that can't fly, but can swim... isn't this a penguin! '

   This may be common sense in the original world, but in this world, few people know about this kind of bird that lives in extremely cold places.

  In order to avoid exposing more abnormalities, Colin did not answer, but echoed: "It's a bit strange."

   After a while, they came to the entrance of the cave.

   Before Colin could speak, Shelley walked to a corner and stopped, leaned over and took a pinch of light gray powder with his hands to look at it.

   "I probably know what monster you're talking about."

  Shelley clapped his hands, stood up, turned around and said, "Would you like to visit the real lair of this ice and snow monster?"

   "Can you find it?"

   "There is nothing I don't know about this snow land."

   Shelley smiled slightly.

  She looked down at the ashes left by the snow monster core on the ground, feeling a little annoyed.

  This abominable ice and snow monster ran towards him so desperately that he even brought Colin here!

  According to common sense, she has a certain deterrent effect on these monsters.

   Right now, this ice and snow monster came here on purpose, obviously trying to bring trouble to the east!

  Furthermore, according to what Colin said, these monsters still take pleasure in killing ordinary humans, and most of them have been polluted... Shelley wrinkled her nose slightly. She will not let go of these cancerous tumors in the snow!
