"Really?" Donnie, Sammy and Jones stood up at the same time, with surprise and doubt evident in their expressions.
Karl nodded heavily: "Of course, I will not mistake my brother's handwriting and imprint."
"I mean, is he really sure? Has he explained the reason and who is behind it?" Although Downey knew very well that Carl's brother should be a big shot with equally powerful strength and power, after all, he had no idea about him. Intuitive understanding, and it is related to my own life safety, so I can't help but ask again and again, unwilling to believe it easily.
Karl threw the note in his hand to Downey: "For him to say that, it means that he is more than 90% sure. Well, he only explained that this is not a normal dream in the field of illusion, but involves a higher-end dream." It did not point out who the specific manipulator is. I guess he is still investigating this matter. There is no conclusion yet. The only thing that can be determined is that the other party is not as powerful as we feared, so we pretend to forget this matter. , observing and waiting in secret"
Downey looked at the note in his hand. The content on it was basically the same as what Karl said. Of course, it was definitely not as verbose as Karl. At the end of the note, there was a mark that looked like a black top hat. It looked ordinary, but had a unique smell. .
¡°But I always feel that it¡¯s not too safe¡¡± Jones whispered to himself, but he had no other choice. If he reported it to the academy rashly, he might put himself in danger.
Sami breathed out, stretched his right hand to his left shoulder, patted the ghost who had been listless these days, then yawned and said vaguely: "Since Karl's brother said so, let's not worry too much about this matter. ,sleepy."
Downey's facial muscles twitched: "Sammy, you seem to be too relaxed. At least for now, the real cause of the matter and the manipulator behind it have not been investigated. How can we really let go of our worries?"
"So what? What can we do? We can only be careful" Sami had a bachelor's temperament, so he took off his clothes and got into bed.
Karl had a smile on his face and his eyes were shining brightly: "With my brother's attention, there is really nothing to be afraid of. If there is another nightmare like that. We must explore and take risks"
He felt eager to try again.
Donnie couldn¡¯t help but secretly thought, he seemed to have full confidence in his brother.
¡¡¡¡
The next morning, the four people in dormitory 202 were busy washing up, suddenly. They heard a knock on the door.
Downey buttoned up his magic robe two or three times. Turned around and walked over. Opening the door open: "Please mentor Robert?"
Standing outside the door turned out to be mentor Robert with a dead face. The dark red needle-like light in his eyes and the clear blood vessels on his sallow face always gave Donnie a chill in his heart.
Why did he come here in person?
Although Robert looks scary, his voice is mellow and gentle: "I just happened to pass by the 'Tower of Life'. So I came to inform you that I wonder if you are willing to join the 'Heidler Branch of the Genetic Laboratory' and become an apprentice-level assistant? "
"What genetic laboratory Heidler branch? Is it the research institute established by Mr. Felipe and the others at the college? Do 'you' include Donnie, me, Sammy and Jones? Or just a few of them? Mr. Robert, I really I really like studying genetic factors and have a good accumulation in this area" Karl took a toothbrush and rushed out with white foam in his mouth, blurting out a series of questions and confessions.
At this time, the apprentices who were about to go to the teaching tower noticed Robert with a special appearance. They stopped nearby and looked at Downey and others in shock and astonishment. The Hedler branch of the genetic laboratory? is this real?
Donnie, Sammy and Jones were all shocked and speechless. They crowded at the door, looking at Robert eagerly, waiting for his answer.
"Because the conditions in the Necronomicon are special and convenient for conducting some extremely demanding experiments, Mr. Felipe has been planning to establish the 'Heidler Branch of the Genetic Laboratory', and just a few days ago, the 'Laboratory Branch' 'The arrangements have been basically completed, and we have begun to recruit more manpower. I am the first arcanist selected by Mr. Felipe." Robert explained the cause and effect unhurriedly, "Because of your questions in the open class, Felipe Mr. Pei was somewhat impressed by you, so when he was recruiting apprentice-level assistants, he asked me casually, and I was very satisfied with your usual study efforts and seriously recommended you to him."
After a pause, he added: "That includes Carr, Downey and Jones."
The apprentices around him woke up and let out a breath of cold air. It turned out to be the Haidler branch of the genetic laboratory! Really learning from Mr. Felipe! Why were they chosen? Why not?Self?
Surprised, envious and jealous, many apprentices secretly regretted that if they had known that during the open class that day, they would have imitated Carl and rushed to ask questions, leaving an impression on Mr. Felipe - Carl's special appearance made him The "Tower of Life" is famous.
"Really?" Downey and Jones asked again in disbelief, while Sammy lowered his head sadly. After all, he was an apprentice in the soul direction, so how could he be selected by the genetic laboratory.
Robert nodded lightly: "What's the point of deceiving you about this kind of thing? The reason why Mr. Felipe is impressed by you is because he admires a saying: an arcanist who doesn't ask why is not a qualified arcanist."
This is what Speaker Douglas once said. All the apprentices present know it well, and now they hear it again. Regret is like a mouse gnawing at their souls. They should not be restrained by shyness, fear and other emotions from asking questions! Be sure to boldly ask why in the future!
"Really, it's really great! Thank you, Tutor Robert" Downey thanked him excitedly. Although it was because of Mr. Felipe's direct inquiry, it was also thanks to the tutor's recommendation.
Jones stood there blankly, with a dull smile on his face, as if he had entered his own "field". This surprise came too suddenly, and he was completely unprepared!
Robert nodded, still expressionless: "It seems you are all willing, then come to my office later, I will take you to the 'laboratory branch' to report."
"Teacher Robert, what do we mainly do as apprentice-level assistants? Assist in the production of experimental materials? Observe and record the cultivated creatures and feed them? Or directly help with observation? Use the knowledge of magic crystallography to analyze" Karl After seeing the crowd, I quietly put down my toothbrush and got rid of the foam in my mouth. I am an elegant gentleman who pays great attention to appearance and etiquette!
"Someone will tell you when the time comes." Robert's face moved, he ignored Karl's questions like a rainstorm, and turned around to leave.
"That's great!" It wasn't until Robert was gone that Jones came back to his senses and waved his arms vigorously.
¡¡¡¡
After the elevator descended to the hall, it did not stop. Instead, there was a burst of pale light, which was connected to the mentor's coat of arms on Robert's chest. Then, it continued to descend, and the surroundings were dark.
"Well, the laboratory is underground?" Carl looked around excitedly and curiously.
Donnie turned his head, as if he didn't recognize him. Although he looked calm and gentle on the outside, like a quiet lake, in fact he looked like a kitten with teeth and claws.
Robert kept his eyes straight and turned a deaf ear to Karl's constant voice.
After a while, the elevator stopped, the pale light curtain opened, and a silver-gray metal spindle-shaped object appeared in front of it. Robert walked up first.
"Do you still have to take the underground shuttle?" Karl asked happily.
Neither Downey nor Jones had seen this kind of item before, and they were a little uneasy. Fortunately, Karl was there to "introduce" it.
"Yeah." Robert nodded lightly.
The underground shuttle closed and moved quickly along the tunnel. After two or three minutes, it slowly stopped. On the left side was a double silver-white metal door, cold and indifferent, and very grand.
Robert took out a strange badge and shook it. The door moved to both sides, revealing a corridor with walls like an orange honeycomb. It had a unique shape and was so shocking that even Karl subconsciously stopped talking.
After passing this corridor quietly, there are roads extending in all directions, with different metal gates on each road.
"I will take you to apply for entry and exit badges first." Robert said briefly.
Before he finished speaking, the metal gate on one of the roads opened, and Felipe came out with his hands in the pockets of his long black windbreaker.
"Good morning, Mr. Felipe!" Downey and Jones said hello excitedly. Carl was a little late and saluted his mentor.
Felipe glanced at them, his eyes lingered on each person's face for a moment, and then said calmly: "This is not a place for fun, I hope you remember."
"Yes, Mr. Felipe." While Downey and others were replying, Felipe had already crossed them and walked to the other side.
Suddenly, he stopped and said without turning his head: "Don't arrange for Carl to do experiments yet, let him get familiar with the work of various research groups."
Donnie smiled secretly, was Mr. Felipe even worried about Carl's reputation as a "laboratory destroyer"?
Karl pursed his lips, looking aggrieved.
At this moment, Downey's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, as if he was deep in the laboratory, orFarther underground, something was calling me.
this? Donnie looked at the wall next to him in astonishment, not sure if it was his hallucination, because the feeling of being summoned disappeared in a flash.
He looked at Carl and Jones, who was almost ignored by him, and saw that they were completely unaware. He was even more confused. Could it be that he was too worried and was hallucinating?
"It's not convenient to ask now. We'll discuss it after we return to the dormitory" Downey calmed down.
¡¡¡¡
Night, dormitory 202 of "Tower of Life".
Because neither Karl nor Jones felt that way, and the same was true for Sammy who was in class, Downey's feeling was not taken seriously. Anyway, they believed that someone was paying attention behind it.
In the midst of drowsiness, Downey's heartbeat accelerated again, and a little fire seemed to appear in his dark vision.
He opened his eyes suddenly and was shocked to find that he was lying in front of a tombstone, and Sammy, Carl and Jones were also nearby, looking around blankly. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature. The novels will be better and updated faster!
