Wizard of science

Li He walked out and saw many people waiting for him in the open space in front of the main castle.

Weier, Phil, Alex, Alex, Alex...

"Have you completed all the preparations I asked you to make?" Li He asked.

Weier and Feier nodded.

At this time, in addition to their usual clothes, the two of them also wore two helmets made of metal.

Weier's helmet was worn tightly, so Faile had a little trouble coping with it. It was a little crooked, as if it felt a little awkward, and she couldn't help but pull it down.

Wei'er saw Feier's behavior and quickly stopped her. She also helped to tighten the straps of the helmet and put the helmet on Feier's head tightly.

Feier shook it vigorously and found that the helmet was not moving at all, as if it had grown together with her little head. She said angrily: "Coward Wei'er, I don't want to wear this thing. It's like holding an iron pot on its head. It's heavy and ugly." .Besides, Li He just asked us to pay attention to safety and fixed everything in the room, but he didn’t ask us to fix our heads. Quickly take off this thing."

"Don't pick it off." Wei'er's attitude was very firm. "This is for safety protection, okay? There may be turmoil in our Black Stone Castle next, and it will be bad if it hits our heads. This thing can protect our heads."

"Who said that?"

"Li He said it. Li He introduced it to us before."

"Really?" Fei'er's big eyes flickered, and she turned her head to look at Weier, with a bit of doubt on her face, "Are you sure you're not lying to me?"

"If you don't believe me, you can ask Li He." Wei'er said.

"Okay, Li He..." Fei'er turned to look at Li He. Without asking, she opened her mouth to complain directly, "Li He, Li He, Wei'er is bullying me, please take care of her!"

Li He was nearby and heard the conversation between the two clearly. He walked closer and gently patted Mayfair's metal helmet. Looking at the smooth surface of the helmet, he guessed that Wei'er must have taken the metal from the warehouse. The raw materials were coaxed into using Mayfair's fire spell ability to smelt them into shape. Otherwise, Weier would not be able to make such a high-quality helmet with her own abilities.

It was not easy either. He was able to coax Mayfair into making a helmet and even coax Mayfair into wearing it on his head.

Of course, this is Weier's good intention, and it is in line with the cautious character that the other party has always shown.

"Weier bullied you?" After hearing Feier's complaint, Li He did not go to Weier to settle the score. Instead, he nodded and said seriously: "That's good for bullying."

"Ah?!" Feier was stunned for a moment, her eyes that flickered became even bigger. She was a little confused at first, and then she suddenly pursed her lips and became aggrieved.

"You...you bullied me too, you and Weier bullied me together!"

"To be precise, it protects you. This helmet is very good. Although it will most likely not be used, it can protect you from injury when it is used."

"This is too ugly and heavy..." Feier complained.

Li He carefully observed the material of the helmet and determined that it was made of the common iron ingots Wei'er took from the warehouse. Although the strength was good, the quality was indeed relatively large. In addition, Wei'er was too cautious, and the helmet was much thicker than ordinary. It was really difficult to hold it on the two people's slender necks. It's not surprising that Fei'er complained about the weight. As for the uglier one, it has no decoration, pure metal color, and the shape is not very particular. It looks like a half-cut lead ball. It’s strange that it looks good.

"Let's just wear it for a while. When I'm done with the work later, I'll go to the warehouse to choose some light-weight metal, or rebuild it with high-quality alloy for you two, so it won't be so heavy. Make some internal modifications, and it will be more comfortable to wear. Comfortable. Then I’ll use paint to paint the shape, and it won’t be so ugly. It will look like a beautiful hat.”

"Really?" Mayfair asked, "Then...when the time comes, I will draw something on it myself."

"Okay." Li He agreed.

Fei'er then wore her helmet obediently and stopped making trouble, and stood together with Weier again.

Li He looked at Alex, straightened his expression and asked, "How are other preparations for the castle going?"

"I have done everything according to your request, Master Li He. The entire castle is currently running with low energy consumption."

"Continue to reduce energy consumption. Except for the energy supply at four special points, the rest of the energy supply will be cut off. Next, I will expand this area. It is likely that there will be violent shocks. We must try to avoid damage as much as possible."

"Understood, Master." Alex nodded and walked towards the energy system operation room.

Not long after, the sound of "click-click" operating mechanical levers floated out, and area after area of ​​Blackstone Castle darkened. All the lighting lights were turned off, and almost all other machines and equipment were powered off and offline.

Li He checked it again to make sure everything was fine, and walked towards the door of the castle.

Alex followed quickly, while Weier and Feier held on to the metal helmets on their heads and trotted behind them a little top-heavy.

Arriving outside the castle, the group stood still. Li He walked alone to the edge of the Black Stone Castle area, and finally stopped near the dark gray light curtain.

Reaching out to the side, a sensible Alex walked up and handed out a lead box.

After opening it, there were two Autolus sealing beads inside. After the annual test, they were reburied in the soil of Blackstone Castle to maintain space stability. They were dug out not long ago.

Li He took out the Autolus sealing beads from the lead box, held one in each hand, and slowly injected energy into the interior to activate.

Autolus' sealing bead began to vibrate. Li He had a change of thought, and the invisible power was released, causing the surrounding air to stagnate slightly.

Then translucent finger-sized beads floated out from Li He's clothes and floated around. They were the space particles obtained by destroying the entire Pale Forest in the annual test.

One, one, one...

More than a dozen space particles were suspended around Li He.

Li He held the Autolus sealing bead and raised his hand. A space particle was pulled and moved slowly, approaching the dark gray light curtain and finally touching it.

Suddenly, the light curtain fluctuated violently.

The entire Blackstone Castle was shaken violently.

"Wow!"

A crack several meters long appeared on the outer wall of Blackstone Castle, the castle door tilted slightly to the side, and the ground sank slightly.

At the point where the space particles came into contact, the light curtain quickly protruded toward the outside, and it took a long time to stop and stabilize.

The entire space of Blackstone Castle suddenly became a small space.

But there is only space, and there is nothing else, including soil and air.

Visible to the naked eye, the expanded new space is empty and empty above the ground level. The surrounding air is rapidly flowing into the expanded space to fill the vacuum.

There is nothing below the ground level, and there is a faint black mist floating around.

Li He waved his hand and sucked up a handful of soil from the nearby ground, compressed and shaped it into a stone cone, and shot it into the bottom of the expanded new space. After hearing the echo for a long time, he made a guess about the depth of the new space.

In this case, after the space is expanded, enough soil must be moved in as a foundation before building can be built on it. The air also needs to be replenished from the outside, otherwise the air pressure and oxygen content will decrease...

With this idea in mind, Li He controlled the second space particle to approach the light curtain.

Then the third one...

…

Li Hyuk keeps busy.

A total of fifteen space particles were obtained in the pale forest. After half a day, Li He fused twelve of them before stopping.

To the naked eye, the area of ​​the entire Blackstone Castle has nearly doubled in size from its original size.

This twice the new space was filled with soil by Li He, and the surface was smoothed. Looking at it, there was a large open space outside the Blackstone Castle.

At the edge of the clearing, Wei'er, Fei'er, and Alex looked at each other, all a little surprised.

"Does this count as building a new house?" Feier asked.

"Not really, it should be more powerful than building a new house." Weier didn't know the details, but she could tell that it was not as simple as building a new house.

Alex, who was approaching, said with emotion: "This is the construction of a new space... No wonder Master Li He wanted to take away the Ortholes Sealing Bead before. It turned out to be for this... I actually I still want to dissuade him from coming... I am too short-sighted..."

"Building a new space?" After listening to Alex's words, Weier and Feier blinked, seeming to understand.

Feier asked a big doubt, turned to look at the original black stone castle behind her and asked: "To build a new space, do we need to make our previous house look like this?"

Following Mayfair's gaze, he saw that the previous Blackstone Castle building had been severely damaged in the process of continuous fusion of space particles and overall space oscillation.

A large number of cracks appeared on the outer wall of Blackstone Castle, and several sections collapsed directly.

The castle gate is severely twisted and crooked, and it can no longer be seen from its previous appearance.

The stone house Li He first built in the castle, Laboratory Zero, was already idle. This time it suffered a disaster and most of it collapsed.

Many surrounding buildings were damaged to varying degrees, and one of the fortresses was tilted severely, almost like the Leaning Tower of Pisa, and it seemed difficult to continue to use it normally.

Fortunately, it's not a bastion in the living area, otherwise it would be a problem for Weier and Feier to sleep today.

"This is just a small price to pay on the way forward." After expanding the space, Li He turned to look at Feier and said, "Don't worry, it will be repaired later, and better and more beautiful rooms will be built. "

"real?"

"real."

Li He looked at Aaronkes and chuckled: "Alan, you may have to be busy for a while again. Our Blackstone Castle is about to start another comprehensive upgrade and construction."

"Understood, I must meet the master's requirements." Alex said seriously.

Li He nodded with satisfaction.

…

Next, for several days, Li He and Alex were busy.

Li He was busy with the new planning of Blackstone Castle, and the Alexis were busy repairing old buildings and building new ones.

As a result, I was interrupted before my busy work produced much results.

Dean Gauss sent Sean to inform him again, saying that there was an opportunity to use the apprentice's mouth.

Originally, according to normal arrangements, I would not be free until seven days later.

Coincidentally, a person who was qualified to use the Apprentice's Mouth temporarily canceled the use for some reasons, which gave Li He an opportunity in advance.

Li He naturally had no objection to this and agreed directly.

That afternoon.

Li He first made contact with another wizard family who wanted to sponsor, and then followed Sean's notification and waited in the lobby of the Bluestone Wood Building.

"Tuk-tuk-tuk", there was a knock on the door.

After opening it, I found a red-haired female apprentice standing outside the door.

"Is this Senior Li He?" the female apprentice asked, bowing.

"Yes, I am."

"Hello, senior, you can call me Natasha. I am taking you to the location of the Apprentice's Mouth according to the wishes of Master Brynn." The female apprentice Natasha said with a tight face, speaking a bit fast, After speaking in one breath, he was slightly out of breath, deliberately suppressing his breathing rate, and his cheeks were slightly red.

Looking at the nervous female apprentice, Li He looked calm, nodded slightly and said, "Okay, let's go."

"Yes." The female apprentice quickly turned around and walked in a direction away from Yuanjing Lake.

Li He followed all the way, and soon followed the female apprentice to a stone forest where they were stationed.

This place is already close to the edge of the Dark Heart Academy. It is very remote and there are almost no traces of other apprentices and wizards.

Watching the female apprentice in front of her continue to go deeper into the stone forest, if she hadn't considered that there would be no unsighted people who wanted to ambush him in the academy, I would have really suspected that the female apprentice had another purpose.

Nearly a hundred meters deeper into the stone forest, the female apprentice stopped in front of a collapsed stone pillar. She bowed deeply to the only upright stone pillar next to her and said, "Master Blin, Senior Li He has arrived."

Li He looked at the vertical stone pillar, and through the perception of the regeneration heart, he vaguely realized that this stone pillar did not blend with the surrounding environment.

The next moment, the stone pillar twisted and deformed, transforming into a black-robed wizard who looked to be in his forties.

The opponent's left eyeball was a little cloudy, and he seemed to have vision problems. He had a pair of gold-rimmed monocles on his eye sockets.

Looking at Li He through the lenses, the wizard named Brin made a voice: "Are you Li He, a student of Dean Gauss?"

"yes."

"Come with me. As for Natasha, you go back first and remember to organize the materials for my class tomorrow."

"Okay, Master Brin, I will definitely sort it out." The female apprentice nodded quickly, subconsciously grabbed the sides of the robe with her hands, bowed, and turned around to leave.

At this time, Wizard Brin turned around and walked deeper into the stone forest.

During the walk, Li He noticed that the other person's steps were smaller and larger, and the steps were a bit weird.

As if sensing Li He's gaze, the other party stopped and lifted up a corner of his robe, and saw that the other party's right leg was completely cut off from the knee down, and a prosthetic leg made of silver-gray metal was installed.

The foot was transformed into a hook that looked like a crescent moon. It was elastic and would bounce up a lot every time it was pressed down, causing Brin to walk so weirdly.

"It's interesting, isn't it? In the last college war, the enemy wizard used a wind blade to cut off my calf, and imposed a birth-blocking curse, so I could only replace it with a self-made mechanical creation. I wasn't used to it at first, but gradually I felt that it was necessary. It's more usable than the original limb. I heard Dean Gauss mention that among all his students, you have the highest knowledge and strong research ability, which is not worse than some formal wizards. And I also like to study some Things, especially mechanical creations and magic matrices. If you are interested, we can take time to communicate."

Li He blinked, but he didn't expect to receive an "invitation" from a strange wizard. He nodded and politely agreed.

Speaking of which, it is always beneficial to study things like communication and listen to other people's ideas.

Even if there is no substantial gain, you can still expand your thinking.

Wizard Brin was obviously not a man of words. When he saw Li He agreeing, he briefly exchanged a few words and then dropped the subject. He led Li He in silence a few hundred meters deeper into the stone forest and walked to a stone wall.

After tapping the stone wall lightly, the stone moved to both sides, revealing a hole.

"The mouth of the apprentice is inside." Brin then introduced again.

…
