Chapter 3286 Competition and bets

Professor Reinhardt's words were not accepted as soon as possible. After all, he and the witch are really just friends:

"Then you and Elder Harald."

"At that time, Elder Harald asked me the same question. It was the summer after my leg injury healed. We went to Shilun City to do business together and talked on the road. I also gave the same answer as you, yes, exactly the same. Now I have fully understood the elder's attitude towards me and the complicated mood."

He looked out the window at the vast and majestic snow-capped mountains under the blue sky and white clouds:

"It's like fate has drawn a circle. While I was glad that I was lucky, I saw myself in front of me and became the person I was the first. Of course, I am still a little different from you. I didn't have the confidence of you back then. My age was six years older than Claire's mother. At that time, I had just become a lecturer and had a low salary. I had no connections in the college and it was difficult to get classes. The funds and projects of the liberal arts major have always been difficult to apply for."

He coughed, interrupting his memories of his youthful dilemma:

"After living on this island for so many years, I have begun to believe in fate. I will not talk much about your relationship with Claire. I am much more reasonable than my father-in-law who was more than 20 years ago. Ahem, don't say this to the public. This is a private conversation between us.

In short, rely on yourself to investigate on the snow-capped mountains. If you believe in fate, fate will also show you its secret. But remember that fate is a double-edged sword. Everything has a price and everything has a meaning."

Professor Reinhardt's answer to Shade was not just these plausible words. Before Shade got up, he talked about the "Ice Castle" mentioned by the forest guard Lao Haman, and told Shade that in addition to Lao Haman, two other people had seen it in the past three hundred years, and the location was in the southeast of the similar snow-capped mountains.

He circled the approximate location on the map, which was the starting point for Xia De to conduct a comprehensive investigation while completing the commission of the Fatu man. However, since the Ice and Snow Castle was mentioned, Xia De inevitably thought of Chloe.

Since he had already contacted the remnants of Chloe on the snow-capped mountains, if the Ice and Snow Castle really exists, Shade still hopes that the castle is related to Chloe.

It was only 2 pm after chatting with Professor Reinhardt. When Shade left the study and went downstairs, Mrs. Reinhardt was packing big bags of bread, vegetables and various foods, and let her daughter take her to the Harpoon Hotel to eat:

"Isn't it good to ask me to say that you live directly at home? Even if you live with your grandfather, why do you have to live in a hotel? Do you have no home here?"

The witch had no choice but to answer directly, so she turned around and looked at Xia De for help. Xia De smiled and helped her take the packaged food, and then turned them all into toys in front of Mrs. Reinhardt.

This surprised Mrs. Reinhardt and said that if she could do this, she would not have to rush "Little Larry" (the donkey at home) to the dock to transport goods in the future.

After leaving the Reinhardt's house together, the two discussed it and went up the mountain together, and went to the small auditorium in the mountains to take out the magic sword that had already been sealed with souls and cut off the "maternal consciousness". We were very lucky, or the sealing ceremony jointly imposed by Priest Augustus and Dr. Schneider seemed to have worked, and the magic sword hidden in the wall by Xia De using "turning mud into stone" was not taken away by anyone.

After Xia De took it out, he waved it a few times, feeling that before the demon appeared, he could use this sword as a "main weapon" on Fatumonster Island.

"The ceremony says there are nine magic swords on the island. Now the Sun Church has one in your hand. If you have one here, then the remaining magic swords are seven. The [Sun Emblem] Lord of the Demon Swords of this number should be enough to deal with it."

Miss Reinhardt was optimistic about this, but Shade thought of the snake that night:

"The premise is that no new magic sword is produced."

It was still early, and Shade planned to go to the southeast of the Snow Mountain with Miss Reinhardt to see if there was really something like "Ice Castle" near the circle drawn by Professor Reinhardt. He himself did not have hope, and he planned to go there to take a look, and then return to the town without any result. Claire Reinhardt naturally would not refuse to go around with Shade.

The Owl Miss who followed the sky all the way would certainly not like the low temperatures in the snowy mountains. She was also very happy that they had not stayed on the snowy mountains for too long.

"How about we compare? Let's start from here together and see who can get to the destination first."

After walking out of the small auditorium, the girl in a good mood suggested with a smile.

"Is it faster than going down the mountain? Of course,"

Shade thought about it but refused, but Miss Reinhardt said again:

"Since it's a game, I always have to bet on something. If I win, how about you stay and have dinner with us tonight?"

The owl standing on the roof of the small auditorium rolled her eyes very humanely and decided to write down this sentence, which can be used in the future when shaping a very proactive girl.

"What if I win?"

Xia De asked, and the platinum-haired girl said with a smile:

"Then I allow you to call me my name directly in the future."

Miss Owl shook her wings and flew up straight up. Xia De's after-lightness watched it spin around nearby, and the witch said before Xia De's answer:

"Just kidding, if you win, I can take you to an important banquet next week."

"Banquet? Is it from Shilun City?"

"Yes, Grand Duke Lagerson has determined to put the meeting to mediate the relationship between Carsonrick and De Larion on the island of Fatummonster, not on the coast. Among Carsonrick's representatives, there was a Marquis' wife who was a classmate in college, so I also received an invitation to the welcome banquet next week."

Xia De just didn't expect that the Marquis also studied mineralogy:

"This party sounds interesting, so what are the rules for the competition?"

"There is no rules, and any means are OK. Then I'll set out first and see you later."

She said as she jumped, and then turned into a golden stream of light and flew to the bottom of the mountain. Xia De sighed, then jumped into the air and turned into a cat. So the owl pounced down like a predatory falcon, grabbed Xia De's cat in the air, and flew him to the bottom of the mountain.

Of course, in the snowy mountains, Flora changed the fur color of the owl to prevent being discovered. Today's round-faced owls are snow-white:

"Claire is such a silly girl. I originally wanted to see how you captured her, but now it seems that she is just drilling into your backpack by herself."

Miss Owl commented that Xia Demao felt very guilty about this:

"I feel it's better to tell her the truth quickly."

"How can that work? Vanessa and Sylvia can play, and I can play too - Shade, shut up and drink carefully, I'm going to speed up."

The twelfth-level transforming master glowed in the air until he turned into a unicorn carrying a cat. He carried him into a ray of light and rushed to the bottom of the mountain. Although the sun's witch was very strong, she absolutely could not defeat this twelfth-level unicorn in terms of speed.

"Un~"

A white light seemed to appear in the woodland at the foot of the mountain, and the light rose because of the appearance of the "unicorn".

The "match" ended with the victory of Shade, who had a mount. Miss Reinhardt was not disappointed after the two met in the woodland, and did not even ask Shade what methods he used:

"If you lose, you lose. The specific time of the dinner has not been notified yet. I will tell you next week. Let's go now. I'm not familiar with the forest nearby, but it doesn't look like there is an ice and snow castle here."

"Strong spatial perception" did not find any spatial abnormalities here. The two people walking through the cedar forest were more like walking together than looking for something.

The rugged forests covered with snow were completely different from the Vesta Woodlands. Watching the sun falling to the west little by little while walking, Xia De suddenly felt an indescribable sense of melancholy.

While exploring in the woodland, they talked about the "remaining poems". Combining the first snake shed, the words found on the snake shed five hundred years ago by Fatu people and this broken chapter, it is no longer difficult to see that the story of "destiny" is a story of competing for the position of "protagonist", and obtaining that snake shed is the first step to entering the story.

Speaking of this, Miss Reinhardt thought she had wasted the snake shed:

"Although we are not completely unable to be chosen, the Speaker said that the situation of the Big Witch becoming the chosen one is very, very low, almost equivalent to the fact that it is our turn to know that you or Stella should try it. You look so special, Stella also has her own unique talent, but I am just a 'secondary supporting role'."

As expected, she was still angry about this incident. Xia De smiled and shook his head, carefully avoiding the branches that were falling with crystal snow:

"The story of fate has just begun. Everything is possible. Don't say such things. But are there so many strange things on the island where you live? I've been on this island for a week and I've encountered almost all the things I can investigate. "

"When I was a child, I didn't feel that it was strange here. My hometown in my memory has always been peaceful and peaceful. I think it is because the material world has not been peaceful in the past two years."

She said softly, then suddenly asked:

"Is it my illusion? What is that in front?"

Xia De, who had turned his head and talked to her, also looked ahead. At the far distance of the cedar forest, a blurred white light almost blended with the background of the woodland:

"I saw it too, wait, was that what the old forest guard saw? We really bumped into it at once?"
