Everything was fine. Luke, who was studying and teaching in school every day, rarely felt comfortable and relaxed.
Even when meeting their own relatives, they didn't seem to be in love with each other. Both realists put their family ties, which were not consolidated by getting along and had no blood ties, before each other's interests.
At this point, Luke had no right to blame anyone else. Because so is he.
But loss is still inevitable. Even if you have psychological expectations, you still cannot avoid it after all.
To be honest, such a peaceful life even made Luke feel a little bit mean.
How can it be so peaceful these days? No, I can't show it off. I have to carry out my plan and take advantage of the free time now to arrange two more free chess moves. No matter whether it will come in handy in the end, it just needs to be useful.
Thinking of this, Luke turned over on the bed and held Booker in his arms, who finally came back to sleep last night.
It was too late last night for Zhu Nibi to prepare. He waited for me to wake up and go back to the cage to make preparations.
Even Luke has times when he wants to be lazy. However, intermittent laziness and constant struggle are considered a relatively normal behavior pattern.
Although there is intermittent struggle, regular failure is more common.
When he received these two letters delivered to him almost at the same time, Luke's face was full of doubts.
No, it’s just such a small thing, why do you have to make it so complicated?
He knew that Alice and the others needed Thunderbird skeletons. Alice had revealed part of their transformation technology to him before. But this experiment is not a temporary one. After all, this experiment is just a step-by-step procedure. If something is really urgent, it is acceptable to put it aside 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 stopped.
Not to mention that the entire organization would lose control because of a Thunderbird skeleton.
If such a problem really arises, then it can only be said that there is indeed a problem with Alice's ability, and such a person cannot be relied on.
Of course, related to this thunderbird skeleton, there are still a few days of human life. This is of course important. But now that the matter has come to this, why do we still need to notify him of this matter? It's okay for them to handle this matter themselves. It's not like we have to ask him to come forward.
Luke felt like he was wearing a mask of pain when he thought that both parties might ask him to mediate because of this kind of thing.
The teammates he randomly found wouldn't be so wasteful.
Come on, he's just talking about it. He will go to find the guy in the Black Lake in a few days. That giant squid is the focus of his next strategy.
Taking a deep breath, Luke suppressed his mental irritation.
After getting rid of his anger and the irritation of having his vacation interrupted, Luke read the two letters aside again, and then frowned slightly. To say how simple this is is certainly not. The strange things are all out there.
But... the biggest problem is that talking to Luke is of no use. This happened in the United States. And Luke is now in England. Across the Atlantic Ocean.
Although the Atlantic Ocean is narrow and long, it is still a big ocean.
How could he take care of this kind of thing?
So he shook his head, took 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 loses in this matter. What's important is that there should be no conflict between the two parties. If there is a conflict, then Luke will lose the most.
The situation has not become complicated yet, so we need to put things down quickly. If the situation is allowed to develop and the two sides get into trouble, it will be very difficult for Luke to mediate at that time.
If neither party is hurt, then Luke will be blamed. If both sides are hurt, then what Luke will lose is his own assistance. So if you can suppress it, it’s best to suppress it as soon as possible.
Holding the two letters, Luke walked out of his dormitory. There were still many students relaxing in the lounge.
Normal student dormitories are said to be spacious, but in reality they are still a bit cramped. Not everyone wants to stay in bed and read a book, so it is also a good choice to find a secluded corner in the lounge 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 break room. That's because he is the only one in his dormitory, with a private bathroom and a separate window to enjoy the scenery. And has its own independent bookcase and desk.
You can even make room for your cat and snake.
If it weren't for the fact that Slytherin's dormitory was underground and it would take a lot of effort to fly out, Luke would have kept his owl by his side.
It's a pity that the owls now still have to live in the school's owl hut. This is the most convenient place to send letters. But after Luke has some free time, he will also deliver food to his owls every day.
Even if he is not available, Booker will deliver it for him. It has to be said that Booker came to Luke as a pet cat, but now Booker can already help Luke a lot.
Unknowingly, Cat Booker has also grown a lot.
Luke came out of the dormitory and saw the students in the lounge.
Ron came to Slytherin's lounge for some unknown reason, and he was goring an ox with Malfoy.
You were talking to each other, and it seemed so lively.
But Luke had no intention of joining in the fun. These two guys were very typical aristocratic young men who had not grown up. The only disadvantage is that one has money and the other has no money.
Luke always felt that if Wes came to the house and had money, Ron wouldn't be as mean as Malfoy. But in terms of showing off, there should be no difference.
It is normal for two people to butt heads after their relationship has eased. Seeing that Harry beside Ron was not involved in the war, it showed that the problem was not big.
Just when Luke reached a position where he could be seen by others, he felt a gaze looking at him.
Looking in the direction of his gaze, sure enough, it was Taylor.
Tyler looked at Luke with a slight smile on his face, as if he had known he would be out by now.
The two looked at each other with a smile, and Luke walked towards Taylor.
Taylor's dormitory is a normal dormitory. At the beginning, she was ostracized by her roommates because of her deliberately sloppy appearance, gloomy personality, and covered face. Even to the point where it can barely be called being bullied.
Unfortunately, their exclusion meant nothing to Taylor. Although Taylor does not have a mature soul like Luke, in comparison, Taylor is also a very precocious child. She realized the cruelty of the world early on, so she was able to face the ridicule of these children who still thought the world revolved 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 last year for trying to please Luke became polite, gentle and considerate again in front of Taylor, who was like a new kid.
Even the person who had the worst attitude last year was trying his best to be nice to her.
But Taylor still didn't respond to their kindness, just like she didn't respond to their malice last year.
For Taylor, the likes and dislikes of a group of passers-by mean nothing to her. With this in mind, it's better to sleep a little longer, maybe you can make some valuable predictions.
"What's wrong?"
Luke walked over to the chair opposite Tyler and sat down. There was still a faint smile on his face. After all, although it can't be said that he doesn't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, every time Taylor comes to see him alone, he always has something important to say.
"I saw a slovenly figure."
Taylor came up and got straight to the point: "In a cave, there is a very weird magic ritual. I didn't see all the magic circles in the ritual, and after searching part of it, I couldn't find any clues."
Luke saw the book in her hand, "The Encyclopedia of Ritual Magic." In fact, although this book designed a lot of ritual magic, it was still far from the word "Encyclopedia".
After all, there are thousands of ritual magics, and no one dares to say that he can master them all. No one can.
"It's normal to find partial ritual magic." Luke said with relief. "The biggest reason why this book is not placed in the restricted book area is because it only designs normal ritual magic, and even some more common black magic rituals." None of them were included.”
He must have read this book a long time ago. After all, it is an introductory book on ritual magic. It is also available in the library at home. When Luke was interested in ritual magic, this book was the first book on the list prepared for him in 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 this. She also knew that ritual magic was not like a spell. There are even many magic spells that are unknown to the public and are just personal creations that are passed down in small circles or even family units. What's more, ritual magic is very private in itself.
"At the center of the ritual is a bone, like a snake bone, that is visited."
Taylor said seriously: "That's not the point, Luke. The point is, that person... seemed to have seen me."
Speaking of this, even in front of Luke, Taylor couldn't help but his throat moved.
She is a prophet. Even if you are not yet mature, you can only get a glimpse of the future in your sleep, when your soul is closest to nature. But that was also what the prophet predicted. The most important lesson of the prophets is to detach from the prophecies you see. Whether you see the end of the world or you see yourself becoming famous, you must remain calm. Don't let prophecies affect your life.
Because a prophecy is a possibility for the future. Whether this possibility can be realized in the end depends on personal 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. He was about to say something, but Taylor interrupted him mercilessly.
"Of course, it's not very important. If you see it, you will see it. Whether he is a prophet or something else...Luke," Taylor's expression was unusually serious, and he pressed his hand on the small ball on the table. The sound insulation effect of the surrounding enchantment is further enhanced.
"After my dream last night, my first reaction was to come to you. My intuition told me that this matter had something to do with you. That was when my perception was at its strongest, and I trusted my intuition."
"Whether he is a prophet or something else, Luke, he may have something to do with you...you have to be careful."
Faced with 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 hearing the news, Taylor frowned more and more.
Obviously she also understands that this matter is definitely not simple. More importantly, she initially thought about reminding Luke that it was best not to get involved with this matter.
But when this matter involves the possible help of two Lukes, then Luke may have to get involved.
Even in Luke's original plan, these two parties were indeed absent. But Luke would not give up his help because of an incomplete prophecy.
Luke wasn't that timid yet.
"No matter what, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain. If there is no road, there must be a road."
Luke smiled confidently: "Don't worry, I'm measured."
Taylor rolled her eyes, she believed Luke was a ghost. This thing has to be blended in to be true. But when it comes to Luke's sense of propriety, she usually believes it. But now... the ominous premonition lingering in her heart has been lingering for a long time, making her really uneasy.
But looking at Luke's eyes, she knew that she must not listen to her advice.
"There is only one request Luke," Taylor took a deep breath and said to Luke, "This time, discuss it with me before making a decision. I can't give you a completely accurate response. But I will try my best to help you verify the possibility. sex."
She feels a little regretful now because her ability is still not strong enough. The prophet's abilities were never at their strongest. Prophecy is extremely limited.
The practice of magic has not made much progress, and the development of innate magic has reached a bottleneck. In terms of combat effectiveness, he is definitely stronger than his peers, but there is still a long way to go before he can help Luke.
Luke chuckled: "No problem, don't worry."
And after all, with such a helper, Luke has no reason to keep it aside.
"Okay, I'm going to do my business first. You relax first. If anything happens, we'll solve it together."
Luke comforted Taylor twice, then stood up and walked out of the lounge.
Taylor looked at Luke's leaving figure, but the solemn look on his face did not disappear at all.
"Solution...how to solve it?"
