Weird Wizarding World

  Chapter 33 Hot

  The next morning,

  Colin just woke up not long ago.

   Renee brought him a steaming breakfast.

  Looking at the bright sky outside the window, Colin showed a satisfied smile.

  After that, the whole day is spent studying.

  With Renee cooking and errands, his own time is once again free!

  ...I didn't expect that one day, I would live a corrupt life of reaching out for clothes and opening my mouth for food.

   At noon, Colin briefly introduced the Lapp School of Science and some forces in the city to Arthur and Renee, so that they could understand their own position and understand who could be provoked and who could not.

  Of course, since he didn't know much about the distribution of forces in the city, he just talked about it briefly and mentioned the Lapp School.

   During the whole period, Arthur and Renee were in shock. They never thought that the real overlord of the island turned out to be the unheard-of Lapp school far away on the top of the mountain.

  Colin is not surprised by this, ordinary civilians and wizards are two completely different classes.

  Even though the wizards in Black Rock City never hide their existence, ordinary civilians still have limited understanding of wizards.

  After Arthur listened, his attitude towards Colin became more and more respectful, even to the point of fear.

   Renee, on the other hand, was a little depressed.

  It was evening in no time, and after dinner, Colin rode a carriage to the west gate of Black Rock City.

   After getting out of the carriage and asking Arthur to pick him up at dawn tomorrow morning, he let Arthur go back.

   Then he stood alone at the city gate and waited.

   After a while, when the sun was setting and there was only the last sunset in the sky, Holt finally arrived.

   "Let's go, I'll take you there."

  Holter strode out of the city as he spoke.

   At this time, other wizards came one after another.

   This is not surprising. In addition to the Lapp School, there are also members of the four major gangs and three families on duty.

  Holt took him to the far right outside the city.

   "The cabins on duty are not fixed, they will be rotated every time, just remember to move to the right every time, this time we are the five cabins on the far right, next time it should be the cabin on the far left."

   "After you get familiar with it, you can come here directly. There are not so many rules here, as long as you don't forget to be on duty."

   "Okay." Colin replied.

  Holla led him to the middle cabin.

  The guard team consists of a small team and five captains. The wooden house in the middle is usually occupied by the captain, which is convenient for assistance and support.

   "On the first day of every month, all the members will meet at the wooden house in the middle, mainly to come to me to receive their monthly salary."

   "They should be almost here now, just so you can get to know each other."

   Holt said to Colin while pushing open the door.

  Colin nodded. After joining the City West Guard for so long, he had only met Captain Holt and Minister Barton.

   "Boss, you are finally here!"

  As soon as the door was pushed open, an excited thick male voice came to my ears.

  Colin followed the reputation, and the fat man sitting at the innermost wooden table in the middle of the room was talking, and he stood up while speaking.

  Beside him sat a man and a woman.

"team leader."

  The man's face was cold, and he yelled softly when he saw Holt coming in.

  The woman wears a veil, so she can't see her face clearly. From the eyebrows and eyes, she seems to be gentler.

   But soon, Colin retracted this evaluation.

   "Orlando, sooner or later you will die on that half-elf girl!" The woman laughed loudly at the fat man who stood up earlier.

  The voice is rough, but the tone is also very bad.

  Orlando turned a deaf ear, but came to Holt's side courteously and stretched out his hand.

   "...Catherine is right, you have to be temperate, Orlando."

  Holt was also a little helpless, but still took out ten magic stones and handed them to him.

  Orlando took the magic stone, touched his head and smiled.

   "I know, boss..."

   Holt sighed and didn't say anything more.

   "Captain, don't you want to introduce the new team members?" Willard the cold-hearted man suddenly asked.

  The masked Catherine also looked over with great interest.

   "This is Colin, an intermediate apprentice who just advanced last month." Holt introduced.

   "He's a newcomer." Catherine looked at Colin and asked, "Can Fireball and Hope's defensive force field be cast instantly?"

   "Not yet," Colin responds, "but I..."

  Catherine was a little disgusted when she heard the words, but then said casually:

   "You can't deal with fierce beasts at your level... Stay next to me for a while, call me sister, and I will protect you."

   Harsh tone, more teasing than caring.

   "Catherine, I didn't expect you to be so kind. My sister, you are in your thirties, and you can be someone else's mother at your age. Are you embarrassed?"

  Orlando's sarcastic voice suddenly came.

   There was a sudden silence in the room.

  Boom!

   Immediately afterwards, a huge fireball suddenly shot towards Orlando!

  Orlando's complexion changed drastically, and he quickly put up a translucent blue shield.

   But still unable to resist the fireball, the shield quickly shattered, and he was also knocked to the ground.

  Colin's eyelids twitched when he saw this.

  According to the power of this fireball, it is estimated that two shots can break through his steel armor.

   "Old woman! Are you serious!" Orlando got up in a panic, furious.

   Looking carefully, apart from some scorched marks on his clothes, he seemed to have no other injuries.

"enough!"

  Holt hurriedly stopped and raised his hand to extinguish the spreading flames.

   Immediately afterwards, another green light was emitted, and the scorched and damaged part of the wall of the wooden house began to sprout and grow, and finally the hole was slowly healed.

  But Catherine still couldn't help being angry, and a torrential magic power was brewing.

   "Enough is enough."

  Seeing this, Holt spit out a few words again coldly.

  As the voice fell, a shuddering aura suddenly descended into the room.

  In a daze, Colin seemed to see a huge black ancient tree with intertwined roots, swaying in the shadow behind Holt.

   "I'm sorry, boss." Orlando apologized hastily.

   "...I'm sorry, Captain." Catherine also turned pale and subdued in a low voice.

  Although Holt is gentle and doesn't care about their way of speaking on weekdays, if they get angry, they will still tremble with fear.

  The horrifying atmosphere suddenly dissipated, and Colin heaved a sigh of relief.

  He looked up, just in time to see Willard on the opposite side exhaling lightly.

  The two of them looked at each other, feeling a little bit of sympathy as if they were both affected by Chi Yu.

   At this moment, Holt regained his gentleness, and sent magic stones to Catherine and Willard.

   Then he urged them to go to their cabin to be on duty.

  Before they went out, he specially took care of Colin to live in the wooden house on his left as a care.

  Although he has a certain understanding of Colin's strength, he knows that he is far stronger than a newly advanced intermediate apprentice.

   But in any case, in his eyes, Colin has only entered the advanced stage for a month. Even if he is strong, he is probably not strong enough... and the variety of methods is not comparable to that of senior intermediate apprentices.
