Thanks to Elsa's slow and steady car, Horus enjoyed the scenery along Ellington.

This distinctive city has indeed brought a great impact to Horus. It seems that there are fresh things everywhere, especially many products with the shadow of alchemy can be seen everywhere. Every once in a while, it can bring Horus some good ideas.

However, different from a hundred years ago, after years of hard work in the Arctic ice sheet, Horus's character is not as crazy as before, but gradually precipitates, becoming more calm and charming.

If he appears on the big screen of magic power projection at the moment, I'm afraid he can become a charming middle-aged idol star in an instant. With a pair of deep eyes and a face full of vicissitudes, he can definitely fascinate those little girls.

Now Horus has completely lost his original edge and has become more introverted and deeper. After many years of seclusion, he has enough time to reflect on what he has done in the past. He knows how great harm the sleepless person he once created has brought to the world. If it were not for the action of the Dragon family, I'm afraid the sleepless will be the culprit in destroying prandal.

After understanding everything in the past, Horus sealed all the dangerous alchemy he conceived and never tried again. Over the years, he has been thinking about only one problem, how to completely solve the threat of the sleepless.

However, before he could solve the problem, he found that his apprentice, Aldrich Harris, suddenly disappeared.

At the beginning, Horus didn't realize that he had left. He just thought that he might not be able to stand the hard life and went out to relax. As a result, he didn't come back for several years. Only then did Horus finally realize that the situation was not quite right.

After careful examination, Horus found that his manuscript recording the sleepless seemed to have been turned over. Horus realized the seriousness of the problem.

In order to prevent possible accidents, Horus had to break his oath, set foot on this land again and began to look for his apprentice.

Unfortunately, Aldrich knew him too well, and he knew how to avoid his tracking, so Horus couldn't find Aldrich all the way south.

Fortunately, so far, no news has been heard of the rampage of sleepless people.

So Horus decided to come to Ellington, where the catcher lived

The magic car stopped slowly, and Horus came back: "here we are?"

"No, this is the magic Energy Engineering Research Institute. It's still a little away from my home. I'll get off and do something. You wait here."

Elsa said with a smile, opened the door, ran down, and went straight into the building in front of her.

"Magic energy engineering research institute?"

Horus's eyes lit up. Although he didn't know what it was doing, he knew it only by listening to the name. It was definitely a place full of mysterious knowledge!

Horus was going to go in and see if he wasn't worried that his rash appearance would cause misunderstanding - he noticed that there were guards in front of the building, which might be a very important institution.

A moment later, two figures came out from inside. The man in front held a large box and even blocked his body.

Elsa next to me said, "so I can move this thing myself. There's no need for you to help me..."

A dull voice came from behind the boxes: "Lord Elsa, please don't say any more. Now I'm a body of atonement, and I'm still an apprentice. Doing chores here is what I should do... Put these things in the trunk?"

Huh?

Horus in the car was stunned. The voice... Seems a little familiar?

"Well, put it in. I'll use it later. Alas, war is really annoying..."

"Lord Elsa, although the war was initiated by his majesty Donne, he must have had to. His majesty Donne is a very great and kind king. If anyone can save the world, I'm afraid it's him... Well, Lord Elsa, I won't send you away. I'll go back to clean up now..."

What a familiar voice

Horus sat there. The voice recalled his deep memory. It seemed to be the voice of a very, very important person to him, but he couldn't remember it for a moment

Elsa smiled and waved her hand: "OK, OK, go back. Thank you. Rodriguez, I'll help you say good words later and let you join the formal project team as soon as possible."

"Then I thank you so much. Seriously, I can't wait to study that knowledge with them."

Horus heard a trace of joy from the dull sound line, but immediately, Horus trembled like lightning. He rushed out of the car and shouted, "teacher!?"

The man turned slowly, revealing a slightly pale face with a touch of curiosity in his pupils. When he saw Horus, Rodriguez flashed a trace of confusion on his face, frowned and thought carefully for a moment before he realized it.

no

No, no! Although the appearance has changed a little, it is clearly Mr. Rodriguez!

Horus was surprised and happy at the moment. He never thought that he would see his mysteriously disappeared teacher here again in this remote city!

You know, a long time ago, Horus thought that his teacher had lost the power of time and died!

He's still alive!?

"You are... Horus."

Rodriguez finally turned out a name from the corner of his memory and gradually matched the name with the middle-aged man in front of him: "yes, you are Horus, my only apprentice."

"Teacher! It's really you!"

Horus's expression at the moment was very strange. He seemed to want to express shock and ecstasy, but the years of seclusion made him almost lose his rich expression ability, so the muscles on his face were distorted and looked very strange.

Elsa blinked and whispered, "Hey, Rodriguez, do you have a grudge against your apprentice? How do I think he looks like an enemy?"

“……”

Rodriguez was speechless: "Lord Elsa is laughing."

Then he looked at Horus and asked, "Why are you here?"

"Teacher, I, I am, I come to find an old friend because..."

Horus opened his mouth, but the matter was so secret that he couldn't talk casually.

What's more, at the beginning of the second chaotic invasion war, the teacher did not appear, which means that he did not participate in the war and was not one of the insiders of the sleepless. Can this news be disclosed to him?

Besides, there are others around.

Horus hesitated and decided to hide it for the time being. Anyway, he had found the teacher. When he had a chance, they would sit together and talk slowly.

But

"Teacher, why is your state a little strange?"

Horus changed the topic. He found that his teacher was in a strange state. Although he looked vibrant on the surface, there was a very contradictory dead spirit around him. It was too strange that the two forces had not clashed yet.

Rodriguez said mockingly, "strange? I'm a lich now. Strange is normal. It's better to say that I can have my current state thanks to the power of your majesty Donne."

"What?! Lich!?"

Horus was surprised: "you turned yourself into a lich!?"

The news was so amazing that Horus couldn't even believe it.

Although he knew that the teacher had studied necromancer magic, he didn't expect that he would eventually choose this way!

Rodriguez waved his hand: "obviously it's true... Well, I'm glad to see you, but I have to go back to clean up now. If you're interested, after I get off work this afternoon, I'll invite you to sit in the pub and let's talk while drinking."

Although Horus was looking forward to drinking with the teacher, he noticed a more painful thing: "teacher, what did you say just now? You're going to... Clean up? You, here, actually have to clean up the research room yourself!?"

Excited Horus just thought that the magic Energy Engineering Research Institute was an organization dominated by its own teachers! Looking at the whole prandal, in addition to his amazing teacher, who can create so many wonderful products?

But... Such a great teacher has to clean himself?

"Not cleaning the lab."

Horus breathed a sigh of relief.

"But the sanitation of the whole magic energy engineering research institute needs me to clean it."

Rodriguez said calmly: "in fact, at present, my work here is cleaning, serving tea and pouring water, and doing some miscellaneous work."

Poof!

Horus smothered in front of his chest and almost spewed out a mouthful of old blood.

What did he hear!? His great and omniscient teacher, who works in this magic Energy Engineering Research Institute, is actually a chore!?!?

Who is it!? Is he blind and doesn't know his teacher!?

He is Rodriguez hornheim who created the Legion of golden colossus!

"Teacher! You are -"

"Needless to say, Horus, I know what you want to say."

Rodriguez stopped Horus's words with interest: "there are too many things you don't know... If you have the opportunity, you can go here and have a look in person. At that time, you will know how far the gap between us and him is..."

Rodriguez suddenly remembered what Donne said and sighed: "... We have been killed on the shore by the wave of technological reform."

"He? The owner of this magic energy engineering research institute?"

Horus found it absurd that he saw deep admiration and worship from his teacher's face!?

Who is it? Who on earth is qualified!?

"Yes."

Rodriguez nodded: "Lord of Ellington, master of Datang chamber of Commerce, Regent of Ilus Empire, his majesty Donne."
