Chapter 199 Bad News
In the president's room of the Magic Association, Boorman was lying on a swivel chair, looking at the white world outside the window. He took a sip of tea and said with some doubt: "This weather is really strange. I observed the sky last night and it should be a sunny day. It seems that I have to ask Changsheng for advice."
A cloud of smoke appeared beside Bulman, and Chen Kongyuan emerged from it. He said, "No need to ask me. President, you calculated very accurately. It should be sunny. This snow is abnormal."
Boorman turned his chair around, walked to his desk, put the cup on it, and said, "Oh! Not normal? Now that you mention it, it is indeed a bit abnormal. The temperature today is exceptionally low. It should be the lowest temperature in Los Angeles in recent years."
Chen Kongyuan waved the folding fan in his hand, frowned and looked out the window, and said: "Yes, I heard that the magicians sent to deal with the snow were a bit slow, and the snow was not easy to melt. It's not a normal snowing phenomenon, but I can't sense magic power, and it doesn't seem to be man-made. It's very strange."
Burman stood up, walked to Chen Kongyuan, looked out the window, and said, "This is none of our business. Let the people in the palace take care of it. What do you think of the news from Harms a few days ago?"
Hearing this, Chen Kongyuan shook his head, not thinking about the snow, and replied: "According to the information I have obtained, His Majesty has not taken care of this matter for the time being, and has ordered the news to be blocked. Anyone who returns from Harms will be paid a hush money."
"So what do you think?" Bulman looked at Chen Kongyuan and asked.
Chen Kongyuan stopped waving his folding fan, thought for a moment, and said, "Just talking about my personal feelings. I believe that no matter what kind of creature it is, there are good and evil. Although I haven't seen Annika for a long time, I don't think she is a bad person."
"I see." Boorman looked out the window and nodded slightly.
"What are the president's plans?" Chen Kongyuan looked at Bulman and asked.
"Let's wait and see what happens. Once things become clear, we can make plans." Boorman said calmly.
Boorman didn't believe it, but as the president of the association, he naturally had to think more about it. Don't interfere too much before you understand the matter thoroughly.
Chen Kongyuan took out a bottle of beer, opened the cap, handed it to Boorman, and said, "Would you like to drink some together? It's a new beer."
Boorman took the beer and said, "Okay, I haven't drunk in a while."
Now all the Saint-level strongmen in the city have noticed that there is something wrong with today’s snow, but they don’t know what is going on.
After several years of acting, Xue Li's magic level has reached the third level of Saint level. He naturally noticed that something was wrong with Xue, but he didn't pay much attention to it.
In the Hall of Rebirth, not only Hu Tao and Xue Li live here, but also an employee named Bruce.
He is Burman’s adopted son, and his magic power level has reached the fourth level of the king level.
Bruce was here purely out of curiosity. After all, he was a time traveler, so he recognized the two characters, Hu Tao and Zhong Li.
If you encounter familiar characters and organizations in a different world, you have to come in and take a look. So Bruce joined the Hall of the Dead and applied to live in the hall.
The first time Bruce heard about the Hall of Rebirth was from Xue Li. After all, they were in the same National Academy, so it was not difficult for them to get to know each other.
After knowing the existence of Wangshengtang and Hutao, Bruce wanted to join Wangshengtang, but Xue Li rejected Bruce on the grounds that Hutao was not currently recruiting employees.
It was not until two years ago that Shengtang got on the right track and Hu Tao became relatively wealthy. He no longer had to worry about having no food to eat, so he naturally hired a few employees. Bruce, who knew Xue Li, was naturally one of them.
After Bruce joined the Wangsheng Hall, he discovered something interesting: the head of the Wangsheng Hall was Hu Tao, but in most cases Xue Li was more like the head of the hall. Even though he had a job as a teacher at the Guofu College, he was still able to manage the Wangsheng Hall in good order.
Xue Li is also responsible for Hu Tao's magic training and magic learning, just like an old father taking care of his daughter.
Hu Tao basically doesn't take care of things, and only when she handles Xue Li's bills does she act like the head of the hall.
At this time, the three of them were sitting in the pavilion above the pool, eating breakfast and looking at the snow scene around them.
"Wow! It's snowing so heavily. Mr. Xue, please tell us to take a day off today and have a rest." Hu Tao said, holding a meat bun in his hand, standing at the edge of the pavilion, leaning on the wooden railing, looking down at the snow on the frozen lake.
Xue Li put down the teacup in his hand, nodded and said, "Okay, Master Hu."
After saying that, Xue Li closed his eyes, sensed the marks he had set on them, and used the Thousand Mile Sound Transmission Technique on the employees of Wangsheng Hall.
This thousand-mile sound transmission technique is that Xue Li uses the connection between himself and the earth to tell his words to whoever he wants to tell through the earth. As long as they are not a hundred meters away from the ground, they can receive it.
There is no group chat software yet.
After a few seconds, Xue Li opened his eyes, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.
Bruce said, "Teacher Xue's ability is so amazing every time I see it. Teacher Xue, why don't you quit your teaching job and come to the Magic Association to work? With your ability, maybe you can even become the 13th Magic Research Officer. The work in the Magic Association is also much easier than that in the academy."
Hearing this, Xue Li fell into deep thought. Comparing the two, it was indeed better to choose the Magic Association. He only needed to punch in and publish a new magic every ten years. Unlike now, he still had to go to the academy for classes.
Seeing Xue Li lost in thought, Bruce just watched from the side without saying anything. He had recently explained to Xue Li a lot of the benefits of the Magic Association, with the goal of recruiting him to the association.
"No, I think it's good to be in college." Xue Li thought for a moment and shook his head.
Xue Li didn't go to the Magic Association because his abilities did not fall into the category of magic. He was not sure whether other people could use his abilities, and he was too lazy to think about it.
His current life was peaceful and he quite liked it, so he simply refused.
Bruce felt a little disappointed after hearing Xue Li's answer, but it didn't last long. He took a bite of the bun, showed a surprised expression, and said, "This bun is delicious. Where did Teacher Xue buy it?"
Xue Li replied, "The bun shop opposite Miss Witch's house."
"I was wondering why this smell was so familiar, it turns out it was from that shop. When I was at her house before, I often went to eat the buns from this shop." After saying that, Bruce started eating with big mouthfuls.
Xue Li and Hu Tao knew that Bruce had lived in Xu Yuan's house, so they were not surprised.
Looking at the buns in his hand, Bruce recalled the time when he lived with Xu Yuan. Although Xu Yuan was strict with him, he still missed that time very much.
Bruce had once been moved by Xu Yuan, but this feeling was hidden because of the sword formation. At that time, he understood that only a strong man could stand by her side.
It is worth mentioning that Bruce is also a member of the "Witch" fan support group.
