Chapter 21

Views:

Cyril, who had a good night's sleep the next day, headed to the restaurant for brunch.

The luxurious restaurant changed to a cheerful piece of music, this time with a violin accompaniment.

He was enjoying the fragrant and soft egg tarts, when the Weber brothers and sisters came over.

"Hi, Cyril! Good morning! Mind if we sit and eat with you?"

Jenny had a smile on her face. Although she looked tired, her eyes were bright.

"Good morning, you two! Of course I don't mind, please!"

Cyril frowned and greeted them politely.

He noticed the blue and black eyes of the two of them, and knew that they were going to explore the Rose Manor last night.

"We have been fighting until the sunrise! But there is still a lot of places to go! The Rose Garden is too big!"

Jenny noticed Cyril's scrutiny and shrugged helplessly.

"Look, we found this last night!"

She glanced around and no one was paying attention to them, then lowered her voice and showed Cyril very candidly what they found last night - a small and delicate brass compass.

"Perhaps, you know how to use it?"

Jenny looked at Cyril with interest.

She had a hunch that this beautiful boy was stronger than most of the people present.

Cyril took the brass compass and looked at the information displayed by the system:

[Name: Dangerous Compass

Purpose: This compass has an exquisite magic circle, which is a good hand to help you make choices when you encounter a fork in the road.

How to use: The direction indicated by the pointer is the direction of danger, and the speed of the pointer rotation reflects the size of the danger.

Description: There is a certain chance that something will go wrong! Avoid danger while avoiding high yield! 】

"Perhaps, you can judge which direction is dangerous based on the direction of the pointer. If the pointer is turning desperately, be careful. Of course, this is not absolute. You can test it at night."

Cyril pondered the words and said.

Jenny and Loz looked at each other, both very pleased.

They reciprocated and told Cyril what he had heard.

"Four days later, all the wizards and freshmen of Rose Manor will take a cruise to Whalefall Island. I heard that it is a mysterious island that transits between the Wizarding Continent and other continents. Without special guidance, the existence of this island cannot be found in the sea."

Jenny whispered.

Cyril nodded, which was also mentioned by Johnson who came to pick them up at the Wangdu Railway Station.

"After that, all freshmen will need to participate in a grading trial, which will divide everyone into wizard apprentices of different levels, which involves the treatment after entering the wizarding academy! And the various magical objects contained in Rose Manor can help freshmen in grading. Get better grades in trials."

Jenny said it all in one go.

As it turns out, it's no wonder that Arles' group is dedicated to looting what other freshmen find.

And the invitation letter sent by Snow Owl when he first came yesterday also implied that the new students were in a competitive relationship with each other.

Cyril pondered in his heart that this grading trial would definitely have an important impact on their future wizarding path.

"Do you know what the other freshmen found?"

Cyril asked.

According to the Webbs, they only found this one magic item last night.

"Most of the people who find magic objects hide it and don't spread the word. I've only heard of people who found a wand, and people who found a tube of magic potion that they didn't know what it was. Another girl found a An ill-fitting wizard robe."

Luoz, who had been silent all the time, said, the boy's voice was calm and steady.

"When we went back, we also met the blond boy we met at the stairway yesterday. According to him, based on previous experience, most people and teams can only find at most one magic item per night."

Cyril's face was slightly stunned when he heard the words.

But the look on his face was fleeting, and neither Jenny nor Loz noticed.

He thought of relying on the system to find three magic items in one night, and because he was too tired, he went back to his room to rest early before dawn, and he couldn't help feeling a little guilty.

Then the Weber brothers warmly invited Cyril to explore with them at night, but Cyril shook his head and refused.

He has the golden finger of the system, and it is difficult to explain if he is with others.

Jenny and Loz also nodded understandingly, after all, everyone has their own little secrets.

"By the way, when you came back, did you meet a few people blocking the stairs on the first floor to rob?"

Cyril remembered what happened to Ales last night, and looked at the two of them.

Jenny nodded, but her face was a little weird.

"The one named Arles was cleaned up last night, and then happened to meet a team that was going to black out. The two sides had a fight last night, and both sides were injured. When I came back in the morning, Loz and I watched it. To the way they lay on the ground after being injured."

Cyril complimented, pretending to know nothing: "Praise Merlin! This is the best!"

After eating, he went back to his room to rest.

When the sky darkened again, it was raining lightly outside.

Cyril found a black umbrella in the closet in the room.

He held up his umbrella and stepped onto the wet ground.

Thin and dense rain threads are weaving obliquely in the air.

The hazy water mist that shrouded all around was like an unreal and absurd dream.

The cold night wind mixed with the damp touch hit his cheeks.

Leng Feng deftly avoided the cover of the umbrella and got into Cyril's sleeve, making him shiver with cold.

With a black umbrella in one hand and a kerosene lamp in the other, Cyril walked with difficulty in the dark rainy night.

The dark and windy rainy night, no matter how you look at it, looks like the beginning of some terrifying fairy tale.

He muttered silently in his heart.

This time, Cyril didn't seem to have good luck. After walking for a long time, he was guided by the system to a small stream.

He looked at the dark stream, and was silent for a moment.

Life is not easy, Cyril sighed.

He probably understood that the owner of Rose Manor really likes tossing people.

【Don't worry! The water is not deep enough to drown people! 】

The system said carelessly.

Cyril propped the black umbrella on the ground, put the kerosene lamp under the black umbrella, then took off his shoes and socks, took a deep breath, and stepped into the cold stream.

The wet and cold water reached Cyril's thighs, and he bent down and groped under the water.

Some soft slender strips start out with a slippery touch, which are aquatic plants at the bottom of the water; there are also rounded stones that have been polished to have no edges and corners by the stream.

Cyril finally found something that felt strange to the touch and seemed to have dents.

He picked it up with both hands, a little heavy.

When he carried this thing back to the shore and lit it with a kerosene lamp, he realized that it was a large scallop.

This scallop is very large, the size of a wooden barrel.

There are wavy lines on its shell, and the whole looks like a huge eye, which is very strange and mysterious.

The system also gives timely information:

[Name: Eye of the Storm Scallop (Extremely Rare)

Purpose: Increases odds of surviving in Dead Seas; otherwise unknown

How to use: There are three steps to eating eye of the storm scallops: open the scallops, eat the contents, and digest! To the point: only the powerful can open it!

Description: You can tell it's an old scallop just by looking at it! The scallops that thrive in the Dead Sea have mystical powers, and you can gain some kind of gift by eating the scallop's core. For example, one day you will fall into the sea with your opponent, and you will die without killing yourself. Of course, first you need to find a way to open this invincible hard scallop! 】

"Only the powerful can open it..."

Cyril blinked.

Not very harmful, but highly insulting.

He tried to attack the scallop with the magic he already mastered.

However, it is still very strong and motionless.

The magic attack seemed to just tickle it.

Cyril had no choice but to take away the heavy scallop temporarily, and plan to think about it later.

The rainy weather made it difficult to travel, and Cyril was still holding a large scallop, making it even more inconvenient to move.

He held the umbrella with difficulty, and the kerosene lamp hung on the end of the curved handle of the black umbrella and shook, and the light went on and off.

Just as he was struggling to find a place to hide the scallop, and when he came to pick it up in the daytime tomorrow, he suddenly heard the sound of a fierce fight coming from the front.

Before Cyril could turn around, the two groups of people who were fighting had already hit him.

"Sorry, I'm just passing by, you guys continue..."

He made a blank and innocent expression, and his big almond eyes drooped down, giving him a taste of innocence.

At the same time, he stepped back step by step without a trace.

The visitor stopped fighting, and his eyes moved from Cyril's little white face to the huge scallop in his arms, his eyes flashed, and his face showed a coveted state.

Cyril hurriedly dropped the umbrella and the kerosene lamp, and ran hard while holding the scallop.

However, he accidentally tripped over something under his feet, unable to control his balance, and fell straight forward.

It's over! It's over!

In an instant, Cyril cast two fireballs at an unprecedented speed and smashed them behind him.

At this moment, the silver pattern of Green, the little snake in his pocket, glowed with moon-white light.

Its blood-like eyes suddenly lit up, and Cyril disappeared in place along with the huge scallop in his arms.
