I want the two of you to defeat a puppet maker.
We-?
Hearing the other party mention him, Bright Night came back to his senses from observing the magic spying on this place.
Yes, the two of you.
Why?
There are two reasons…but I want to make it clear first, the Puppeteer you want to defeat is a Demon Eater!
Demon Eater? Lei Zhen muttered from the side. There was no such person in the registration code of the Night Gathering participants.
Who was he? What did he look like? Where was he now? What was his automatic puppet like? How strong was he? Bright Night's lips curled up as he continued to ask questions.
(You want me to defeat the Demon Eaters? Are you indirectly asking me to beat you up? However, I'll accept this job!）Bright Night smiled, but his mind began to imagine the scene of him beating Felix up…
Just as Lei Zhen was deep in thought, Bright Night was immersed in his fantasy world, and Felix was about to answer his questions, Niye returned with tea.
She looked at the three silent people in surprise and placed the teacup on the table.
Felix, who was about to say something, paused and closed his mouth. Then, he picked up the teacup and drank the tea elegantly.
The tea brewed by your automaton puppet is indeed very good. The fragrance hasn't escaped.
Who was the Devourer? Lei Zhen asked him again.
Felix shook his glass and said happily.
In this academy, there would be several people whose whereabouts were unknown every year.
Felix didn't seem to be changing the topic, so Bright Night listened to him carefully.
Most of them dropped out of school voluntarily. After all, the courses in this academy were not easy at all. Therefore, those students who could not keep up with the progress would one day be abandoned. Moreover, the tuition fees here were not cheap. There were plenty of reasons for people to give up on studying.
I don't understand. Since he didn't want to continue studying, he would apply for a withdrawal.
Lei Zhen shut his mouth halfway. Because he already understood the reason why those people didn't go through the withdrawal procedures.
That's right, those people were unable to withdraw from school because of other reasons.
This academy was the highest school in the magic world, and it was a very difficult narrow door to enter. If it was someone who could prepare their own funds and obtain a degree, it would be fine. However, if he couldn't prepare these things himself, he had to find a sponsor.
Most of the funds were provided by the military, financial groups, churches, or Tencent Cloud Organization of various countries.
In the eyes of those sponsors, leaving the academy halfway through should be considered a betrayal, right?
They would probably ask the dropouts to return all their fees, or even pay compensation or penalty fees.
In the worst-case scenario, he might even lose his life.
Those who dropped out of school could only hide in the underground world. Some of them went astray and became criminals. After all, students were in high demand, and this situation was not limited to the world of light. Ironically, there were plenty of running tracks in the world for them to switch to.
【……】
Bright Night was silent. He remembered his current identity-the possession of Glass. In other words, he was a spy for the army...
He and Lei Zhen were able to study in this academy because of the deal with the army…
(, all kinds of places are so troublesome…Sooner or later, I will definitely annihilate all of you!)!）Bright Night recalled how the army ordered him to do this and that, and he couldn't help but feel annoyed. Although the army didn't succeed in ordering Bright Night because of the nitrates, that arrogant tone of command still left a deep impression on him.
However, things had been a little strange recently.
Felix changed his tone and continued speaking in a rare serious tone.
Last October, after the start of the new school year, there were twenty-six unaccounted for people-a marked increase. Not only that, but there were also 12 cases of automatic puppets being destroyed.
Destroyed? Lei Zhen kept thinking according to the other party's answer. Now, he had to collect enough information.
That's right. If it was a simple escapee, it should not have destroyed his automatic puppet.
The automatic puppet was the property of the puppet maker and an important tool for making money. Even if he didn't want it, he could sell it. There was no reason to destroy it.
In that case…
Did someone attack them?
The possibility was very high.
Hey, hey, hey…Are you guys going to let this happen?
Of course, we can't just stand by and watch. In the past few months, we have worked with the guards to strengthen night patrols. Of course, we are also constantly conducting our own search.
How was the result?
He had no clue. Although there were eyewitness certificates, there were too many exaggerations. It was almost becoming an urban legend. It was like Jack the Ripper's reincarnation. The only thing we know is that there's a character called Cannibal Candy in this academy, and that guy likes to eat automatons.
Do you like to eat…?
Ye Ye's body suddenly stiffened. As an automatic puppet, she probably felt uncomfortable when she heard this.
Hui Ye held Ye Ye's small hand, calming her down.
Bright Night, who knew what Felix was going to say next, had been silent since the beginning. The magic ball that had been spying on them had started to move. He needed to prepare for the changes that would happen next.
