I, the wizard, the foolish Buddha
#122 - Investigation of the Skinning Madness Incident
The sky outside had already brightened. Roland went downstairs to retrieve his clothes that were drying.
Afterward, he went to the second floor to look for his room.
He had been back for a day and had stayed overnight, but Roland still didn't know where his room was.
There were three rooms on the second floor that he hadn't entered yet, so he went to the first room.
After opening it, Roland's expression became extremely interesting.
This bedroom was greatly expanded by magic, with over two hundred square meters.
The ceiling was also unusually high, reaching eight meters.
Many fresh flowers, plants, and strange trees grew inside the room.
The walls were decorated with some kind of magical tool, making it look like a forest at night.
A teleportation gate could be vaguely seen in the room, seemingly leading to somewhere in the Black Forest.
Perhaps somewhere in the Black Forest, this room was a huge tree hole.
However, the bedroom door was enchanted by Catherine, and with a certain young lady residing here, the effect was definitely better than a barrier.
This huge and beautiful young lady was fast asleep on a low but thick branch.
Not far from her, a tall and brave giant was sitting on a tree stump, whittling arrows that were as big as short spears!
Seeing Roland, Nale nodded.
Roland was surprised to find that Nale's teeth had become much shorter.
At this moment, Roland suddenly realized that the young lady sleeping on the branch was gone.
He quickly closed the door, and then heard a loud bang from the door panel behind him.
Immediately afterward, Roland heard the sound of his brother scolding his sister, and his sister's stubborn retorts.
All in Ancient Elvish.
Roland wiped away his cold sweat and opened the second room.
Seeing the scene inside, Roland's expression became even more interesting.
This bedroom looked like an opera house.
A pile of wooden figures was placed under the stage, and on the stage, a beautiful ballet puppet stood quietly in the center of the spotlight.
Click, click, click.
The ballet puppet turned its head and looked at Roland.
With a bang, Roland closed the door.
He gasped for breath, and when he realized that the ballet ghost hadn't run out, he couldn't help but wipe the hot sweat from his head.
"So this is how you can calm Miss Leona down!"
When needed, summon her; when not needed, bring the book back to the big house, and she will return to her room on her own.
Senior's routine is much better than Wallace's crooked ideas!
The third room was Roland's own room.
Looking at the door next door, Roland's expression was a little strange.
He didn't expect that Senior would arrange him next door.
The two were only separated by a wall.
Catherine acted like a hostess, arranging Roland in the second bedroom.
Roland had no objections to this arrangement.
Moreover, it seemed that someone had cleaned up the room for him, and many things had been tidied up.
Obviously, it couldn't have been Anna, Nale, or the ballet ghost who tidied up Roland's room.
He put on his Demon Hunter leather armor, Mooncloth robe, and Elven hooded cloak.
In the full-length mirror, Roland became a cold Demon Hunter.
'Going to the forbidden area with the major sects to purify the pollution?'
This matter was very important.
If it was done well, his advancement would be promising.
If it wasn't done well, there would be a life-threatening danger.
That kind of place would definitely not be like the Black Forest tea party, so he had to be fully prepared.
He planned to go to the Magic Chess Association first to inquire about information and sign up.
Then he would go to the black market to buy and sell things, and make the Red Spirit into a Tier 3 magic puppet.
With a Tier 3 magic puppet and a magical item, he would have the ability to protect himself even against a high-level apprentice.
Carrying his things, Roland met Senior at the entrance of the second floor.
She had just come out of the bathroom, as if she had just taken a bath.
She glared at Roland, and Roland immediately knew what Senior had been doing in the bathroom.
The two had not taken any contraceptive measures.
Pushing Roland away, Catherine whispered, "Leave a little later!"
Roland also had this intention.
He usually put on a grumpy face to everyone in the academy, and now he didn't know how many people were unhappy with him.
Catherine's identity was too eye-catching, so it was better for him, the son-in-law, to keep a low profile.
Judging from his contact with Charlie and others, most people currently thought that he was just a fake son-in-law, a nominal shield.
Roland didn't want them to change their impression of him.
Senior looked cold when she went downstairs, but feeling Roland's fiery gaze, she wiggled her hips.
Looking at Senior's alluring back, Roland thought to himself, 'Does the academy's store have contraceptives? Should I prepare some?'
The two had indeed said that today was a mistake.
But who knew when the second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth mistakes would happen?
At this moment, Senior suddenly turned her head, and Roland quickly withdrew his gaze.
"Did Fluorescent Peach... I mean, Lilith, come to make trouble for you these past few days?" Senior asked.
Roland shook his head and said, "I didn't see her."
Senior frowned and said, "She's very vindictive. She'll definitely come to you. There's something drawn by me and Fluorescent Peach on that parchment, which is very important to Lilith. Carry it with you at all times. If Lilith comes to make trouble for you, give it to her."
Roland kept it in mind.
After Senior left, Roland quickly took out the thing that Fluorescent Peach had given him.
It was a piece of parchment.
There were many words on it, all kinds of bad moves and information.
There were a dozen magic spells to enter and exit a certain place, and a very strange structural diagram of a key.
Those magic spells to enter and exit a certain place should be top-secret information from the White Chess Wizards, which should have been obtained by Fluorescent Peach, the great spy.
The key structural diagram seemed to be drawn by Catherine.
Roland vaguely felt that this parchment was an extraordinary thing.
Senior giving this thing to him could be considered trusting him enough.
And trusting Lilith enough.
At this moment, a whimper and cry came from his pocket.
Roland remembered that there was still a little mouth that hadn't been fed.
So he quickly went to the flower garden in the attic, recited the spell to enter the restriction, and released the little fairy.
After that, he placed the Shepherd Tree sapling (branch) upstairs with the Fire Vine.
Checking the pollution level, Roland found that the environment here was slowly improving, and he couldn't help but feel happy.
Roland placed some of the magic herbs collected in the Black Forest this time in the flower garden.
With the Shepherd Tree, he would have a super environment suitable for the growth of various magic herbs.
There were already many magic herbs in the flower garden, and many of them had been watered by Senior with the Holy Grail.
The little fairy liked this place very much and even took the initiative to take care of the magic herbs here.
Now, he was afraid that even if he dared to ask it to leave, it wouldn't leave.
The attic had a restriction, and the Nale siblings and the ballet ghost were downstairs.
This Ranger House had already become the safest and most dangerous area in the Forbidden Forest.
Roland no longer had to worry about someone breaking in when he was away.
In order to stagger the time with Senior, Roland meditated for a while.
As a result, when he opened his eyes, it was already noon.
Roland looked bewildered.
He hadn't come into contact with anything strange recently.
But when he opened the book, his realm had increased by 9%, becoming [Realm: Intermediate Wizard Apprentice (12.3%)]
The cultivation period for an intermediate apprentice was three times higher than that of a low-level apprentice.
How much had his realm increased after experiencing the Relic Evil God, Suffering, Flesh Holy Tree, Ballet Ghost, etc.?
Roland rubbed his hair, a little confused.
"Let's submit the Ranger report.
135 points. Isn't that a little too high?"
Shaking his head, Roland felt that the report could not be changed.
If it was modified, the score would indeed come down, but the route would be problematic.
The disappearance of 3 intermediate apprentices and 10 low-level apprentices at once, including three descendants of great nobles, was not a small matter.
He couldn't let the academy find fault.
As for the Red Skull side... Aurea and her group knew who Ellina and the others had been bothering these past few days.
Everyone knew it clearly.
But it didn't matter.
If they were not convinced, they could continue to play.
Of course, before the game started, he had to improve his strength.
This report contained a lot of content about Charlie and others.
It was evidence that he was not present.
It had to be submitted.
And he had to find someone trustworthy.
After packing his things, Roland thought for a while and put away the Shepherd Tree sapling.
After that, he went to the academy.
On the way, people always looked at him with strange eyes, and Roland looked puzzled.
Soon, Roland took the report and arrived at the door of Wallace's office.
After arriving at the door, Roland looked at the sleeping statue and suddenly remembered that Wallace seemed to be away these past few days.
He found an empty classroom and contacted Wallace with a crystal ball.
"135 points. As expected of you, Roland.
You didn't submit the report on time yesterday, and someone even brought it up.
Hmph, see if I don't slap him in the face with the report this time... Well, I can't come back in the near future.
Give the report to Bill, and tell him to slap him hard!"
It was a bit noisy on Wallace's side, and he didn't know where he was on a business trip these past few days.
"Bill? That section chief? Isn't he your mortal enemy?" Roland was very puzzled.
Wallace laughed sinisterly: "He has already sold his soul to me."
This demon was very good at intrigue and conspiracy.
And Bernard and his group of old timers were obviously wearing the same pants as Wallace.
None of these people were easy to deal with.
Bill and his group, as the vanguard sent by the opponents, had already been destroyed by Wallace and his group.
After learning that Roland had goods to sell and was preparing to buy some equipment for the Academy Cup, Wallace knew that Roland must have killed someone in the Black Forest.
He didn't ask much and started thinking.
At this moment, he suddenly noticed that there were many hickeys on Roland's collarbone and neck.
Wallace paled in shock, his face turning ashen as he scolded, "You've got a death wish! The young lady is coming to the academy today! Even though it's a fake engagement, you're still nominally Alexandra's future young master! The young lady is so petty and cares so much about her reputation. If she finds out, she'll kill you!"
This matter definitely couldn't be known by Wallace. That bigmouth would have the news about me and Catherine plastered everywhere tomorrow if he found out!
How could Roland dare to say a word? He pretended to have been messing around with other women, enduring a thorough scolding from the old butler.
Wallace was sweating profusely with anxiety. After thinking it over, he said, "I'll find you a place to hide for a few days."
"Also, you can sell your things there. Hmm, there's a good place where you can sell them to wild wizards. Lord Dahl's people like to lowball, but they are very disciplined. Besides, there's an auction organized by wild wizards there tonight. If you're brave enough, you can participate."
It sounded like a neutral zone ruled by a group of wild wizards. Black wizards from various academies all liked to buy and sell illicit goods there.
Stroking his beard, Wallace said, "Go accept a mission. The location is Dahl Town, also known as Bloodfang Town or Skinning Territory. The lord is Dahl, a formal wizard. Recently, people in his territory have been inexplicably going mad. He's asking our people to help investigate."
Hearing the name of this place, Roland felt that it wasn't a good thing.
Wallace stroked his beard and said, "This matter is likely that Lord Dahl himself is harming his people, driving them crazy. Our people just need to go over and provide false testimony. That guy has a good relationship with us and won't harm you.
"Besides, I'm letting you take this mission as a pretext to go out, not to actually do the mission. The black market there is very good, and the bathhouses are also fun.
You can't sneak out of the academy, otherwise, if the academy happens to be looking for you and you're not there, it would be a minor issue to cause trouble, but if people use it as an excuse to treat you as a missing person, the problem would be big!
There are a total of four intermediate apprentices, so you can just slack off on the investigation. If it really doesn't work, give them some money. You don't even have to be present. Go to the black market there, sell your things, find a place to kill time, and when you come back, you can still earn some academic credit."
Wallace had indeed given the most prudent solution.
Roland thought for a while and said, "I'll go ask about the situation after I finish eating."
