Adolf's shoulders trembled, his expression became quite complicated for a moment,
"Oh...it's Ella, you've grown taller."
The man clumsily gestured at a height, probably the height of Ella in his memory, and at this moment he caught the girl who almost hit him directly.
His figure was completely larger than that of two years ago, and he almost completely filled the girl.
Adolf was stunned for a while, but his body and spirit were completely relaxed. He reached out and stroked Ella's soft hair and said.
"Is it my illusion? You don't seem to grow much taller."
"Professor, you have gained a lot of weight. Is this considered middle-aged fat?"
The two parted from the embrace, both laughing in what was certainly a touching reunion.They coincidentally did not talk about Yousef, the heavy atmosphere is not suitable for this kind of occasion.
"Miss Williams, remember me?"
It was another voice that made Ella feel very familiar. It was a middle-aged lady with a gentle attitude and wearing a black dress.
"Of course, Professor Aurora."
She did the entrance test for Ella and was Ella's teacher in Kraft's first class, Kraft's professor of spells.
"I have retired from being a professor."
Aurora resigned as a professor after Kleist's conversion and sided with the Confederates.
Straw Belusay only slightly nodded at Fred, and stood on the spot with his expression unchanged.
"You are finally here. This is at least a quarter of an hour later than expected."
The one who spoke was a lady in a dark green dress. Her expression looked a little confused, and her round cheeks and makeup made her look very young.Her voice sounded light, even a little lazy.
Ling tugged at the corner of Ella's clothes, and the latter immediately understood that this was Ling's adoptive mother, Ms. Diana Mephisto.
Different from the impression in Ling's description, Ella felt that the other party did not look like a very strong woman.This made her feel inexplicably relieved, and she relaxed a lot from the nervousness of meeting Ling's adoptive mother for the first time.
"What's the matter, Fred?"
Although the woman's tone and timbre did not change, Fred's body suddenly tensed up.
He tried his best to keep his expression unchanged, but the speed of his explanation seemed too fast.
"There are some problems with the channel's technique, and we have encountered a transmission delay."
"Ling, he didn't lie, did he?"
Diana turned around and asked.
"No, of course not, we can all testify."
Ling's speaking speed was also a little abnormally fast.
"Okay, I believe you for now, I will need a more detailed explanation later."
Ella instinctively realized that things were not as simple as she thought, so she couldn't help but take a step back.
"Let me introduce to you—"
Fred took this as a natural way to change the subject,
"This lady is the representative of the Albion Brotherhood, Miss Val Farmini."
Then he pointed to the other two,
"As you can see, they are the bloody Miss Fetili Haj and Miss Victoria Miluthel."
"The meeting will be held in three days. Simon, go and arrange rooms for the guests first."
Farmine raised her right hand,
"Question, Mr. Fred, why put the meeting three days later?"
Fred stroked the short mustache on his upper lip and replied:
"Because there are still some guests who must be present."
Chapter 5 Mephisto
Ella sat alone on the handrail of the lakeside corridor in Faust Manor.
Ling was stayed by Ms. Diana before leaving the reception room. In the latter's words, "This is a long-lost reunion for the family."
This should have been a very natural thing, but Ella vaguely felt that something was not right about the atmosphere.
Back in the room, she habitually continued to chew on the obscure black magic manuscript.But after several failures in building magic graphics, and even wasting hundreds of pounds worth of magic materials, she finally admitted that she was in a bad state and couldn't calm down to conduct magic research.
So she simply put down the manuscript and wandered aimlessly. Unknowingly, she had been in this place for more than an hour.
Ella Ting Ling mentioned the artificial lake in Faust Manor, where magical creatures including mermaids lived, and it was said that there was even a pair of very rare horse-headed mermaids.
She looked at the protruding rocks in the center of the lake. A few mermaids were sticking their naked upper bodies out of the water, floating around the rocks to enjoy the little sunshine left in the afternoon.
They have the posture of a human female, with full breasts and slender curves, and the part below the waist is a blue-black fishtail.
The ethereal singing came from the center of the lake, and Ella felt her consciousness fell into a trance, but she broke free from this state in just a short moment.
In this case, she could hear the mermaid's true singing more clearly, which was an ancient and long melody similar to the sigh of a whale.
Ella felt her emotions lighten a little.After calming down, she realized that her irritability was not just due to the strange atmosphere in Mephistar's house.
After several years, Ella returned to the land of Scotland again. She was not far away from Glamis physically, and it only took one or two teleportations to accurately return to the small town full of memories. town, but this is not allowed by the situation.
Thinking of this, Ella became a lot more relaxed.
"Mermaids are charming and dangerous creatures."
Professor Adolf's voice appeared behind him, interrupting Ella's thoughts.
"Dangerous creatures?"
Ella didn't remember seeing the name of a mermaid in the dangerous creature catalog in the textbook, and these human girlish magical creatures looked docile.
Adolf put his arms on the railing to support the weight of his upper body, and replied:
"Yes, dangerous creatures. Although Mephisto's merfolk are domesticated, they are actually predators and have a wide range of diets. It's just because the number of merfolk is getting smaller and smaller, from decades ago At the beginning, there were almost no wild mermaids in this world, so it was not recorded in the dangerous creatures in the textbooks compiled later."
At this time, the flesh of the mermaid's cheeks on the rock in the center of the lake cracked upwards, revealing two rows of needle-like slender teeth, and it looked like it was smiling!
Ella couldn't help feeling her scalp tingle. In retrospect, she seemed to have had a similar experience in the mine a few years ago.It has to be said that a creature with a nice voice may not have a skin that matches it.
"Professor Adolf, do you have any clue about the content of this meeting?"
Ella asked a question that had always been on her mind, a topic Fred didn't seem to have brought up in retrospect.
"Didn't Fred tell you?"
Adolf was taken aback for a moment, then said:
"Actually, it's not really a secret...it's related to those filthy blood species."
Ella guessed a little bit, after all, Fred especially emphasized the need for Fittilly to be present.She frowned, thinking in a bad direction:
"Isn't it to discuss how to deal with them?"
Victoria is another matter, but Fitili, who has always restrained his desires, should have no reason to be executed.
"of course not."
Adolf touched his forehead, as if he was thinking about how to organize his words, which was honestly something he was not very good at.Many years ago, this interpretation was more in the hands of Yousef.
"This world is becoming more and more strange, and many mysteries that have disappeared before are revived... some dangerous creatures, dark wizards who have been hiding for many years, and foul blood. Hunters are forces that cannot be ignored , their entry will greatly affect the balance of the situation."
"The alliance now has an advantage that Kleist doesn't have. We have two of their holy relics and the means to the city of Enoch. This is Straw's idea, and he means before the foul blood is gone. Try their words, even if you can't cooperate, at least make sure they won't fall to Kleist."
Ella's face became a little strange,
"You mean...the alliance wants to win over dirty blood?"
Win over blood-drinking, polluted blood mages, dirty blood and hunters from Enoch?Ella recalled what she had seen in Paris, and felt that this kind of plan was a little unreasonable.
Adolf quickly read Ella's doubts, he spread his hands and said:
"You should know better than me, there are dirty blood like Miss Fittili in this world. And you need to go to the city of Enoch, right?"
It is not a secret to the alliance that Ling Zengjin has investigated the babbling fragments that troubled Ira through the channels of the Mephisto family.And Professor Adolf was right, she needed to go to that place anyway.
Hearing Fitili's name, Ella seemed to remember some details that she had overlooked, and she suddenly said:
"You said just now that we have the means to reach the city of Enoch, what's going on?"
"It is said that Fred got it from Miss Fittilly."
Fitili?Ella remembered Fittili telling herself that she had forgotten how to get back to that kind of place.From this point of view, perhaps Niels left similar methods to her. The relationship between the siblings is very complicated, and it is not something that can be explained clearly in a few words.
Since the alliance has plans to get in touch with the dirty blood forces in advance, the reason why Farminie is here is very clear.The Albion Brotherhood, which is the target of cooperation, is in the same position as the alliance in this operation, and there should indeed be some of them among the representatives of Enoch City.
Most of the content discussed at this meeting was the course of action of the Alliance and the Albion Brotherhood and the candidates for the mission.
"So the guests Fred will be waiting for are other representatives of the Brotherhood of Albion?"
"That's not true. Fred should be waiting for his sons."
"son?"
Adolf said thoughtfully,
"As Patriarchs, Fred and Straw cannot personally join the mission. During sensitive periods, they must all stay in the alliance. This is a tacit agreement between us and Kleist. Of course, I cannot go because of these troublesome rules. "
"Although it sounds a little unpleasant to say this...the problem lies with Ling. If Belusa's heir Hyde joins the mission, Fred can't just mess with it."
Ella opened her mouth but couldn't speak. She felt that she probably understood Ling's strange sense of restraint.
"They make me feel weird..."
Adolf didn't immediately realize what Ella was saying, and he said after a while:
"You mean the Mephisto family? That's true...Fred and his three sons don't get on very well. An awkward family."
Generally speaking, offspring born in pure-blood wizard families have higher magical aptitude, and in a very small chance, they will even inherit the bloodline advantages of both parents, although this situation is extremely rare.
Guaranteeing family interests, intermarrying with families of comparable bloodlines, and fulfilling some ancient interests or traditions that have survived for thousands of years, these are the characteristics of most pure-blood wizard families.
