Hus 58

  As soon as the mouse appeared, Penny had a feeling of goosebumps all over her body.

  It wasn't that he was worried about the powerful mouse being unfavorable to him, because their souls shared a certain degree of connection, and when one side had malicious intentions, the other could clearly sense it. For example, the mouse was now very dissatisfied with Pennie's cautiousness, and with a jump, it leapt onto the wizard's head, waving its paws and tail in unison, and soon that originally messy hair became even more like a bird's nest.

  "Come down, there's surveillance here!! Stop messing around." Penny gritted her teeth and flapped her hands at her hair, trying to shoo away the troublesome mouse, while using her mental link to constantly send messages, reminding the mouse that this was not a place it could mess with.

  This is the old nest of the prophecy system.

  Because Panni knew the nature of prophecy magic, he was very clear that he absolutely could not act rashly in this place.

  It is theoretically not complicated to accurately predict the future - just collect enough information and then deduce through causal laws.

  The concept of prophecy magic is like this, so the application of prophecy magic in reality is often related to gathering intelligence.

  Many high-ranking prophets are knowledgeable and well-informed, as they often use magic to monitor things that interest them, such as the "Eye of Espionage" or "Secret Eye", etc. In the prophecy system, there are not a few related to eavesdropping and peeking.

  Pang Ni didn't know how many such spells were watching him around - although his perceptual domain couldn't detect them, but after experiencing some things, he understood that his perceptual ability was not very effective against powers of a higher level.

  He also knew that he was now under the watchful eye of Oseia, the second-in-command and high-ranking member of the Prophecy Circle, so caution was necessary.

  The appearance of this mouse is not a big deal, the summoning of the magic pet by the law master is not worth making a fuss about. What Penny fears is that this little monster with great divine power will do something earth-shattering and alert the monitor, which would be disastrous.

  Bailen understood Penny's concerns and jumped up and down on the bird's nest for a while before jumping down. Penny smoothed her hair, scolding this little monster in her heart for not staying in the depths of the material world. Just then, she saw the mouse glance at the pile of ancient artifacts on the ground, its tail and ears suddenly standing upright as if it had been suddenly invigorated. Then, with a 'whoosh', it darted into the gap between the ancient objects. Penny saw that the mouse's strange habit of devouring metal had recurred again, hesitated for a moment before walking over to start searching.

  Although this pile of antiques is trash, it's also a shame to destroy them.

  Not to mention the metal-eating magical pet, which is already strange enough.

  Penny was flipping through it while sending spiritual texts, constantly advising the mouse to hurry back to the abyss to play.

  Bailen didn't have time to deal with Penny's harassment, he dug into the pile of miscellaneous items and found a small device on a rusty bronze pillar that caught his attention. The device looked like an eight-faceted copper diamond, with a sharp point opening up a small hole, like a hollow container, but no one knew what use such a small container could have.

  In terms of appearance, it looks more like an oil lamp, but it seems too small.

  It was this lantern that made the little mouse's blue eyes look left and right, frequently blinking and observing carefully. After a while, it heard Penny rummaging through the top of its head, and at the same time, it was also disturbed by the spiritual text message and couldn't bear it. It opened its mouth and swallowed this thing into its belly, and jumped out irritably.

  Sigh~

  Ben saw Bailen appear and let out a long sigh, almost kneeling down: "Big brother, you should go back quickly."

  The mouse's eyes flickered for a moment, and with a disdainful twitch of his whiskers, he turned to transmit the flash person. Penny had just let out a sigh of relief, thinking that this trouble was finally going away, when she saw the mouse turn back around, and her heart skipped another beat.

  The mouse suddenly jumped into Penny's chest, drilled into the magic bag hidden there, spat out two things, and then opened the space channel to transmit away.

  Penny examined the things left behind by the mouse and found two magical objects, which made her expression shocked after a slight inspection.

  Since he had the Qixiashi Golden Finger, with its built-in Arcane Decoding function combined with Penny's innate perception ability, his sensitivity to arcane power reached an astonishing height.

  He carefully placed the modified golden fingers on the instrument, a large amount of arcane information entered his brain through the magical hand's induction, and after slightly analyzing it, he knew their purpose.

  That necklace seems to carry a trigger-type 'Sanctuary Technique', and can also automatically recharge, once a day. The other eyeball-shaped treasure contains two uses of 'Evil Eye Technique', 'Confusion Technique' and 'Weak Intelligence Technique'. Although Penny doesn't know the names of these two items, she can judge their value.

  The value of ordinary spells and their expensiveness, even if a first-level spell is copied into a scroll and sold, it can be sold for more than ten gold coins. The value of high-ranking magic instruments is often in the hundreds or thousands, and self-charging instruments are even more precious.

  Needless to say, the automatically triggered Sacred Domain technique and the powerful spiritual attack magic are how useful during battle.

  Pan Ni didn't know whether to be happy or cry with laughter, so she could only pray that Bai Lin wouldn't come over at such a time again next time.

  "Mr. Xiān, we're here." Barely had Bailén left when the female lawyer brought in a medium-built man in red robes. Penni turned around and saw that the man in red robes was yawning, and said to the female lawyer with dissatisfaction: "Since you've found help, why did you still wake me up?"

  "Waking you up is so that you can sleep more stably." Lijitao said lightly, then turned around and left the room again: "I'll go get the materials."

  Then Panni stayed in the room with this dharma master.

  "Alright, alright. After I wake up, won't you still be ordering me around?" The monk grumbled, pulling out a chair to sit beside the long table, and softly lay down on it.

  Panni observed the young monk, who was about the same age as himself. The slightly chubby round face had clean and delicate skin, with features that had just shed their childishness. The clear and elegant eyebrows exuded a lazy atmosphere, giving an overall impression of being harmless, like an ordinary boy who loved to sleep in late.

  However, he did not dare to relax his vigilance. Coming from a place like the Red Robe Academy, how could someone be harmless? Didn't he himself become a ruthless killer after experiencing those years of events, starting out as a law-abiding young man who didn't even bat an eye when killing people? Not to mention a formal member of the Red Robes.

  The young mage had been leaning on the table for a few seconds, and when he lifted his head to see Penny, he looked slightly embarrassed as he straightened up: "Oh... sorry about that, I'm Husterfordi of the Transformation school, what's your name?"

  "Spell System, Penny Xien, hello." Penny nodded and made a brief introduction.

  "Penny Sien?" The young mage, Husterofidi, scratched his bald head and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face: "Apprentice?... No, someone who appears in this kind of place can only be an apprentice Red Robe. Were you brought here by that woman to do hard labor? What conditions did she promise you?"

  "There are no conditions." Panni shook his head, he could see that the relationship between this mage and Lijita seemed a bit strange, but he wasn't interested in understanding it, he just tried to explain clearly: "I'm just here to help."

  "Need help? Ha... " Rostrophi burst out laughing, looking at Penny with a strange expression: "This woman never easily accepts other people's help."

  "Is it? Uh..." Panni was stunned for a moment, thinking that the fact was indeed so, and there was nothing to say.

  "But if it's really as you say, then you'd better be careful." Husterophi nodded slowly, with a knowing look: "Don't easily owe that woman a favor, and don't try to make her owe you one either. Otherwise, the consequences won't be good. This is advice from a senior."

  "Senior?" Panini's face twitched at the youngster's self-proclaimed title, this Huster Trophidi looked like he was only fifteen or sixteen years old.

  He actually dared to call himself a senior in such a righteous and majestic manner.

  Of course, it also makes sense in theory ——

  "I was hired before you, so I'm your senior of course." Huster Troffy raised his chin and said with even more confidence.

  "Alright then... uh... Senior Trophidi."

  "Call me Hughes." Trophidi waved his hand: "From now on we're colleagues, that title is too formal."

  It's still unclear whether we'll be friends or foes in the future, and besides, your role changes are a bit too fast...

  Penny mentally grumbled, but he also saw that the young man in red seemed easy to get close to, whether it was his true nature or a pretended facade. Being able to build some kind of relationship was always beneficial: "So, Hughes, you said about Lijit, neither owing her favors nor letting her owe others..."

  "Isn't that right?" Hughes spread his hands, gritted his teeth, and had a look of regret: "I just owed her a favor, then I was like a dog being ordered around by her, busy running around for a year, couldn't even sleep soundly, couldn't eat enough..."

  While Hughes was speaking, Penny quietly observed his every move. Seeing that he had said these things so straightforwardly, it seemed that his city was not deep, and the temperament of this red robe did not seem to be pretending either. The dike in her heart slightly lowered a bit.

  Since there is no conflict of interest at present, Penny also feels that it is not necessary to build a high wall. Since the other party has the intention to get close, then just follow the stick and hit the snake.

  "I only treated her as a slave, which is actually quite fortunate; at least I'm better than those creditors of hers." After Hustrephody finished describing his own miserable situation, he suddenly sighed and looked at Penny with an eerie gaze: "It's said that some of her big creditors in the past..."

  Beni listened up to here, his mind concentrated, yet saw a mischievous smile appear on the round-faced boy's face:

  "They were all killed by her."

  Penny's eyes widened in shock as she stared at Huster Troffidy unbelievingly.

  "Don't be too surprised, everything I said is true." Huster Troffidy calmly spread his hands as if to say "listen to me, no mistake".

  Panny swallowed a mouthful of saliva, with cold sweat breaking out on his forehead as he chuckled: "But Miss Lijit..."

  "Not like that kind of person, huh? Indeed, she seems quite honest, looks pretty good too, and has the air of a quiet nun...” Hughes muttered to himself, suddenly looking as if he had been defeated, slapping his forehead: “But please, we are Red Robe Mages, okay? How can you be so sure her personality matches her appearance; just like you absolutely wouldn’t dare judge me, this big and careless guy who looks like I don't have any city manners and it's not strange that I died over a hundred times in the low-level academy, to see if my personality is really as stupid as it seems, right?"

  Then he looked at Penny's stunned expression, twitching mouth corners, and sweat beads all over her face, a smile appeared on his mouth corners, seemingly very satisfied with Penny's reaction.

  At this time, a female voice in red robe came from outside the door, panting:

  "There's a lot of luggage, which one of you two will come out and get it?"
