Chapter 285 Luke with a Confused Face
Everything was going well at first, and Luke, who was studying in school every day, and teaching, felt very comfortable and relaxed.
Even if the reunion with their own relatives does not seem to be so close to each other, the two pragmatists put the family relationship that has not been strengthened and has no blood ties behind each other's interests.
At this point, Luke has no right to blame others.Because so is he himself.
But loss is still inevitable.Even if there is a psychological expectation, it is still unavoidable after all.
Seriously, such a peaceful life even made Luke feel a little bit cheap.
How can it be so peaceful these days?No, I can't mess it up.I have to carry out my plan, take advantage of the current free time, and arrange more idle chess, regardless of whether it will be useful in the end, it is only useful if it is useful.
Thinking of this, Luke turned over on the bed and hugged Booker, who finally came back to sleep last night, into his arms.
It was too late last night for the pigs to prepare for the pig, and I will prepare when I wake up and go back to the cage.
Even Luke has moments when he wants to slack off.However, intermittent laziness and constant struggle can be regarded as a relatively normal behavior pattern.
Although intermittent struggles, regular performance is more common.
When he received the two letters delivered to him almost at the same time, Luke's face was full of doubts.
No, it's just such a trivial matter, why make it so complicated?
He knew that Alice and the others needed Thunderbird bones, and Alice had revealed part of their transformation technology to him before.But this experiment is not in a hurry.After all, this experiment is just step by step.If there is something urgent, it is acceptable to put it on hold for the time being.It's just that there is no Thunderbird skeleton, so it doesn't mean that the entire experimental plan has been suspended.
Not to mention that the entire organization would not lose control because of a piece of Thunderbird skeleton.
If such a problem really occurs, then it can only be said that there is indeed a problem with Alice's ability, such a person cannot be relied on.
Of course, there are still a few days of human life related to this Thunderbird skeleton.This is of course a very important thing.But this is the end of the matter, why should he be notified about this matter?It's OK for them to handle this matter themselves.It's impossible to let him show up.
Luke felt like he was putting on a mask of pain when he thought that the two parties might ask him to mediate because of this kind of thing.
The teammate he found at random would not be such a waste.
Come on, his shit is talking.In a few days, he will go to find that guy in the Black Lake.That big squid is the focus of his next strategy.
Taking a deep breath, Luke suppressed his irritability.
After getting rid of the annoyance of getting up and the interruption of the vacation, Luke looked at the two letters again, and then frowned slightly.As far as how simple this matter is, it certainly won't.The odds are all on the surface.
But... the biggest problem is that it's useless to tell Luke.This happened in America.And Luke is now in England.It's across the Atlantic Ocean.
Although the Atlantic Ocean is long and narrow, it is also an ocean high and low.
...How could he manage such a thing?
So he shook his head, pulled out the parchment and quill, and wrote: "Don't be impulsive, investigate clearly, and deal with it harmoniously."
For him, it doesn't matter who has the loss in this matter, the important thing is that the two sides don't have any conflicts. If there is a conflict, then Luke will lose the most.
Now that the situation has not become complicated, the matter must be suppressed quickly. If the situation is allowed to develop and the two sides are in trouble, it will be very difficult for Luke to mediate at that time.
If both sides are not hurt, then Luke will be blamed.If both sides hurt, then what Luke will lose is his own help.So if it can be suppressed, it is best to suppress it as soon as possible.
Holding two letters, Luke walked out of his dormitory. In the lounge, there were still many students relaxing.
Normal student dormitories are said to be spacious, but in reality they are still a bit cramped.Not everyone is willing to stay in bed and read a book, so it is also a good choice to come to the lounge to find a secluded corner to read a book, relax, or take a look at the scenery at the bottom of the Black Lake.
Luke didn't like being in the lounge.That's because he is the only one in his dormitory, with a private bathroom and a separate window to see the scenery.And has its own independent bookcase desk.
He even made room for his cat and snake.
If it weren't for the fact that Slytherin's dormitory was underground, it would have taken a lot of effort to fly out, and Luke must have kept his owl by his side.
It's a pity that the owls still have to live in the school's owl hut.This is the most convenient place to send letters.However, after Luke is free, he will also deliver food to his owl every day.
Even if he is not free, Booker will deliver it for him.It has to be said that Booker came to Luke's side as a pet cat, and now Booker has been able to help Luke a lot.
Unknowingly, Maomao Booker has also grown a lot.
Luke came out of the dormitory and saw the students in the lounge.
Somehow, Ron came to Slytherin's lounge, and he was fighting with Malfoy.
You talk to each other, it seems very lively.
But Luke didn't want to join in the fun. These two guys are very typical noble young masters who haven't grown up.The disadvantage is only that one has money and the other has no money.
Luke always felt that Ron wouldn't be as mean as Malfoy if Wes had money at home.But in terms of showing off, there should be no difference.
After the relationship between two people has eased, it is normal for them to be top bulls.Seeing that Harry next to Ron did not participate in the war, it shows that the problem is not serious.
Just when Luke walked to a position where he could be seen by others, he felt a gaze looking at him.
Looking in the direction of the gaze, as expected, it was Taylor.
Taylor looked at Luke with a smile on his face, as if he knew he would go out now.
The two looked at each other with a smile, and Luke walked towards Taylor.
Taylor's residence halls are normal residence halls.At the beginning, she was excluded by her roommates because of her deliberately sloppy dress, gloomy personality, and hidden face.It even reached the point of being bullied.
….Unfortunately, their exclusion meant nothing to Taylor.Although Taylor does not have a mature soul in his body like Luke, in comparison, Taylor is also a very precocious child.She realized the cruelty of the world early on, so she can calmly face the ridicule of these children who still think the world revolves around them.
Of course, this year, Taylor, who has changed a lot, has seen a more real side of life.
Those girls who had ridiculed her for trying to please Luke last year became polite, gentle and considerate in front of Taylor, who was like a new student.
Even the guy who had the worst attitude last year tried to court her as much as possible.
But Taylor still didn't respond to their kindness, just as she didn't respond to their malice last year.
For Taylor, the likes and dislikes of a group of passers-by have no meaning to her.If you have this thought, why not sleep a little longer, maybe you can make some valuable predictions.
"what happened?"
Luke walked over to the chair opposite Tyler and sat down.There is still a faint smile on his face.After all, although it cannot be said that there is nothing to go to the Three Treasures Hall, every time Taylor looks for him alone, he always has something important to say.
"I saw a scruffy figure."
Taylor came up straight to the point: "In a cave, there is a very weird magic ceremony. I didn't see the entire magic circle of the ceremony, and after searching part of it, I didn't find any clues."
Luke saw the book in her hand, "Encyclopedia of Ritual Magic". In fact, although this book has designed a lot of ritual magic, it is still far from the word "Compendium".
After all, there are tens of thousands of ritual magics, and no one dares to say that he can master them completely.Nobody can.
"It's normal not to find out-of-the-ordinary ritual magic." Luke said with relief, "The biggest reason why this book is not placed in the restricted area is because only normal ritual magic is designed, even some of the more common black magic rituals. None recorded."
He must have read this book a long time ago. After all, it is an introductory book on ritual magic, and it is also available in the library at home.When Luke was interested in ritual magic before, this book was the first book on the list prepared for him by the library.
The content of the book is easy to understand and is very friendly to beginners.The only bad thing is the overly exaggerated title.
Taylor nodded when she heard the words. She also knew that ritual magic was not like a spell.There are even many magic spells that are unknown, created by individuals, passed down in small circles, or even family units.Not to mention the ritual magic which is very private in itself.
"At the center of the ceremony, a bone is visited, like a snake bone."
Taylor said with a serious face: "That's not the point, Luke, the point is, that person... seems to have seen me."
Speaking of this, even in front of Luke, Taylor couldn't help but move his throat.
She is a prophet.Even if you are immature, you can only get a glimpse of the future in your sleep, when your soul is closest to nature.But that was also prophesied by the prophets.One of the most important lessons of prophets is to detach from what you see prophesying.Whether you are seeing the end of the world or seeing your own success, you must maintain a normal mind.Don't let prophecy affect your life.
...because prophecy is a possibility of the future.Whether or not this possibility can be realized in the end depends on individual guidance.
The prophet himself should not be superstitious about the future.The first thing a prophet has to do is to believe in himself.
Luke frowned suddenly after hearing Taylor's words.Just about to say something, but Taylor interrupted mercilessly.
"Of course, it's not very important. You see it when you see it. Whether he's a prophet, or something else... Luke," Taylor said with an unusually serious expression, and pressed his hand on the small ball on the table.Further strengthened the sound insulation effect of the surrounding enchantment.
"After this dream last night, my first reaction was to come to you. My intuition told me that this matter has something to do with you. It should be when my perception is the strongest, and I trust my intuition."
"Whether he's a prophet or something, Luke, he might have something to do with you...you have to be careful."
Facing Taylor's worries, Luke was silent for a moment, and sighed softly: "I'm afraid it's too late to say anything now."
Under Taylor's puzzled eyes, Luke simply told Taylor the contents of the two letters he received this morning.After Taylor heard the news, his brows became more and more wrinkled.
Obviously, she also understood that this matter must not be simple.More importantly, she initially wanted to remind Luke that it was best not to get involved with this matter.
But when this matter involves the possible assistance of two Lukes, then Luke may have to get involved.
Even in Luke's original plan, these two parties were indeed absent.But Luke will not be foolish enough to give up his help just because of a prophecy that is not detailed in content.
Luke wasn't that timid yet.
"In any case, there must be a way for the car to reach the mountain, and there must be a way if there is no way."
Luke smiled confidently: "Don't worry, I'm measured."
Taylor rolled her eyes, she believed Luke would be a ghost.It is true that this has to be blended.But when it comes to Luke's propriety, she usually believes it.But now... the ominous premonition lingering in her heart has been lingering for a long time, making her really worried.
But looking at Luke's eyes, she knew that she must not listen to her persuasion.
"There is only one request Luke," Taylor said to Luke, taking a deep breath, "this time, discuss with me before making a decision. I can't give you a completely accurate answer. But I will try my best to help you verify the possible sex."
She is a little regretful now, her ability is still not strong enough.The ability of the prophet has never reached its peak.Prophecy is extremely limited.
The practice of magic has not made much progress, and the development of talent magic has fallen into a bottleneck. In terms of combat effectiveness, he must be stronger than his peers, but there is still a long way to go to help Luke.
Luke chuckled: "No problem, don't worry."
And after all, with such a helper, Luke has absolutely no reason to stay on the sidelines.
"Okay, I'll go to my business first. Take it easy. Let's solve something together."
Luke comforted Taylor twice, then got up and walked out of the lounge.
Taylor looked at the back of Luke leaving, but the solemnity on his face didn't seem to disappear in the slightest.
"Solution... how to solve it?"
