Chapter 121 The game that lasted for a thousand years (first update! Ask for tickets!)

This abandoned subway interchange has been around for some years. The red brick walls are not even tiled. Salomon estimates that it has a history of at least fifty years. The subway lines in New York often change, and some places are abandoned. excusable. He stood on the step below Dave, listening to the sighs of the apprentice magician. Salomon shook his head helplessly, and uttered a spell, causing the puppy lying on the magic book in the stagnant water to fly over together with the book and fall into his hands.

Immediately afterwards, he hurriedly put the Shar Pei down, because that stupid dog always wanted to shake the water out of its fur, and he didn't want to wet his clothes.

"Thank you, buddy, for saving my life and Tonk's dog's life." Dave said painfully, covering his face, "But Betsy, she... she will leave me again. In fact, the last time I left, it was ten years ago... well, I'm screwed."

"Of course you are finished!" Salomon bent down and put the magic book of the Merlin School aside. This is the secret of other schools. The Merlin School has been recognized by Kama Taj, and some spells have been handed in. More magic belongs to the privacy of the school. Salomon must not read it. The mystic said, "You masters and apprentices have done enough things in the past few days. Do you want me to remind you? Leaving aside your teacher Balthazar, you cast magic in front of ordinary people..."

Dave let out a long breath, his eyes were tightly closed, and he didn't listen to a word Salomon said. He doesn't care about what will happen next, because the situation now is almost the same as ten years ago - the boy who strayed into the mysterious world couldn't get the understanding of the ordinary girl because of an accident, and then the two parties broke up, each side of the world, Never see you again.

Generally speaking, this kind of Hollywood template story has a happy ending, and before the incident, the hero and heroine should have some emotional foundation. But Dave thinks that there should be no reconciliation bridge in his life, because life is not a movie, and he hasn't even held Betsy's hand yet.

"Hey! Hey!" Salomon patted Dave's face lightly, "Are you listening to me?"

"Okay, okay." Dave opened his eyes and blinked hard. When he stood up, he hugged the wet dog, "What do you want me to do."

"You probably just accepted the warning, we've already dealt with the robber." Salomon said, "When Balthazar comes over, I'll tell him the result of Kama Taj's treatment—at least let him fly in the sky It won't take much time to cast an extra invisibility spell when it's time."

The simple iron door opened again, and Balthazar walked in with a bag of things, but the sight in front of him surprised him. Because Salomon just countered Dave's spell and stopped the activated cleaning tools, but the faucet was still turned on, and the transfer yard was still full of ocean.

"Why are you here?" He looked at Salomon and asked, "What's going on here?"

"Can't you see it? Karma Taj's Transfiguration is not as good as the Merlin School, and the magic here is out of control." Salomon shrugged, "I think your apprentice knows better what happened. , it’s a miracle that he can still save that little life.”

Balthazar immediately understood the cause and effect. He temporarily stopped teaching to give Dave time for a date, and the sight in front of him must be Dave's preparation for the date. It must be that Dave is not good at learning, forced to use the Merlin magic ring to cast spells, and neglected to control after casting the spell, which caused the magic to get out of control. Balthazar quickly cast a spell, letting the water recede from the ground, and everything was back to normal—except for the detergent foam and wet floor, and there were mops scattered here and there, it looked exactly the same as before.

"You!" Balthazar approached Dave, pressing his index finger heavily on the latter's chest, "You have defiled the art of magic, and you still underestimate the Merlin magic ring! Magic is not a game! Magic has no shortcuts! Look at him !"

As the only "child from other people" present, Salomon naturally became the best target for Balthazar to educate Dave. He pointed to the mystic and said loudly to Dave, "He was able to use some small spells when he was five years old, but in the next few years, he kept reading magic books and accumulating knowledge until he could formally Casting magic. You have only been exposed to magic for a few days, and you dare to cast spells indiscriminately! If you can't even control yourself, then you can't control magic, and it will not only hurt others, but also hurt yourself. Every magician Lesson one isn't concentration, it's moderation. You should learn discipline, Dave."

"Thank you for the precepts, but it's useless." Dave pulled back some distance, and he shook his head, looking very frustrated, "If I can't even control a few mops, then what's the precepts Does it make sense?"

"You have to put aside your worries and believe in yourself!"

"Another useless motto, thank you." Dave waved his hand again, expressing that he didn't want to talk about it. But Balthazar did not let him go, because before that, in order to make Dave, an apprentice he had been looking for for more than a thousand years, interested in magic, Balthazar skipped many required subjects for spellcasters, such as commandments , such as temperance, he chose to let Dave try to cast spells directly. As a result of this, it is obvious that Dave has indeed developed a great interest in magic, but it also makes him underestimate the dangers of magic.

"Is that what you did?" Facing Balthazar's lecture, the rookie magician asked impatiently. Salomon, who had lost his value as an educational tool, found a clean chair next to him and sat down. He would not leave until Karma Taj was notified.

"It doesn't matter what I do..."

"It's very important, Balthazar," Dave took a deep breath, his words stuttering, which is a hangover from ten years ago. He said, "You exist to make me live in hell! You know what I've been through in the past ten years, I told you..."

"Listen, you don't know what hell is on earth." Balthazar's anger subsided suddenly, and he seemed to realize that he was a little too harsh on Dave, because from the moment he met him, Dave's life Great changes have taken place, and Dave's accumulation of magical knowledge is completely inferior to Salomon. It is very unfair to compare Salomon with him. Balthazar looked around, trying to encourage himself as an apprentice, "You're making progress."

"No! Not at all! Don't wear a ring, right?" Dave took off the ring, walked to the side, and pointed to the table and chairs piled aside, "See? Without the ring, I can even move a chair No. You are looking for the wrong person, Balthazar, I am sorry, I am really sorry. The savior you are looking for is really not me, and I am not the Supreme Merlin, I am just a nerd in the physics department." Dai The husband changed his outdated leather shoes and put on his own high-top cloth shoes again, "Besides, I'm still wearing such stupid shoes to make a fool of myself."

Balthazar watched Dave put on the hood of his sweater, and left here without looking back. He sighed, and sorted out the wet magic book by himself. After a while, Salomon, who had watched a complete farce, spoke.

"Well, he'll be back," he said, "at least he didn't leave the artifact behind."

"Yes, he will come back." Balthazar did not raise his head, "it was fate that pushed him to my side, and he will not leave the magical world. After all, the Supreme Mage told you about that Yet?"

"Say it." Salomon stood up, "Apprentice knight, Salomon Messiah Pendragon Damonet."

"Why isn't your surname Pendragon?" Balthazar raised his head, "Why did the Supreme Mage tell you?"

"I will hold the holy sword in the future." Salomon shrugged, "That is to say, I will become the king of Britain in the future. This is only the first title. I think that if this title is to become a reality, I must at least Support Scottish and Northern Irish independence first."

"Then, the Merlin Wizards will serve you, even though I am the only one now." Balthazar bowed slightly, "But if Kama Taj doesn't help me, then the world will have no future."

"Why?" Salomon asked.

"Because of Morgan Le Fay," Balthazar said, "Now Hofas is trying to rescue Morgan Le Fay..."

Salomon listened to Balthazar rambling about what had happened, he took a deep breath, and finally fell silent. He couldn't bear to tell Balthazar that the Morgan Le Fay he locked in that nesting doll was just a clone, and all this was just another game of Merlin's, and Merlin was not so easy to kill.

The Supreme Master is right, Merlin's character is really bad, and anyone who gets along with him for a while will hate him. Balthazar and his lover paid a heavy price for sealing Morgan Le Fay. Salomon can imagine that if Balthazar knew the truth of all this, that everything he had done in the past thousand years was meaningless, then he would completely collapse, because what has been supporting him is The prophecy that Merlin left him, the prophecy that made him believe that his lover could be saved.

"I can't promise you this matter, Balthazar, I don't have the power." Salomon asked, "How did His Holiness answer you?"

"Wang said that Karma Taj would help if necessary." Balthazar raised his eyebrows, "but right now Hofas and his accomplices are still wandering outside."

"You can handle it, can't you?" said Salomon. "I have always obeyed His Holiness' orders."

"It would be even better if we could get some help." Balthazar said, "Dave still needs to grow up, and he is not good enough to deal with the mages of the Morgan Le Fay faction."

"Then let him grow." Salomon spread his hands, "The first official duty I performed was to kill vampires and werewolves born from the magic in the "Dark God Book". When my hands were stained with blood, Peers are still thinking about falling in love with the most beautiful girl in the class."

"The king has always been ignorant of education. It is the same when he treats Mordred, and it is the same when he treats you. Mordred was also an excellent knight at the beginning, but he is not as lucky as you. The king treats you far better than you. It is much more lenient towards Mordred, but for normal people, this way is already very cruel." Balthazar was a little low, and Salomon's words seemed to remind him of the fall of Camelot and the falling of the Knights of the Round Table that period of time. He sighed, and continued, "Although our wizard group doesn't think highly of the knight order, what Tristan said is true."

"I admit that His Holiness does not have a high level of education, and the contradictory education often confuses me." Salomon lowered his head and pushed the Shar Pei aside with his feet, "But I'm not a rebellious teenager, I know what I have to do, whether it's good or bad."

"Very well, so do you want to help?"

"No, at least not now."
