Dawn of the Ash Tower

Stepping into the gap in the space, the scene in front of you changed from a small guest room in the Dragon's Back Tavern to a gloomy room.The weak candlelight around can only provide the most basic lighting for the guests here, but fortunately, the guests and the host here can basically see things clearly in the dark.

"Welcome back, Master Cheese." A low and slightly distorted voice sounded, and a blue creature in a housekeeper's uniform stood by the side of the room.Its bloated body made the housekeeper's suit look ridiculous.

"Ah Fu, help me prepare the bathroom, and then go and inform Senior Sister Lily that I'm going to visit her later." Cheese said as he took off his wide gray robe and handed it to the blue creature beside him.The smile he wore on the top of the Dragon's Back was no longer visible at this moment.

"Okay, master." The blue creature replied, and a dark blue halo briefly flashed on its body several times.

"Miss Anlina has already woken up. She accepts your visit. She is very willing to listen to your experience during this trip."

"Got it." Cheese said, and pushed open the door of the room at the same time.

I couldn't see it in the room before. The place where the cheese came turned out to be a huge tower. The middle of the tower was hollow, and the spiral stairs were attached to the hollow part of the center. Next to the stairs, there were one after another. Room.The height of the tower should be extremely astonishing, because from the position of the cheese, the bottom layer cannot be seen downwards, and only the white light source sprinkled from the sky can be seen upwards.

Cheese walked towards the upper floor of the tower, and the blue creature called Ah Fu followed him three steps behind him steadily.

"By the way, is there any news about the teacher?" Cheese asked.

"Unfortunately, young master, until now there is still no news of the master." Ah Fu replied.

"Ah, forget it." Cheese said, while standing still in front of a door, "I will go there by myself later, you go to prepare the laboratory first. There may be live experiments in the near future."

"Yes, master." A Fu watched Cheese close the bathroom door, turned and walked down the tower.

…………

"Sister, Cheese came to visit." Standing in front of a two-person high oak door, Cheese knocked on the door in newly changed clothes and shouted.

And after he shouted this sentence, the two heavy doors slowly opened, revealing the dark space inside.Cheese shook his head. His senior sister has always been very stylish. Although this is not a big problem, he still believes that people who study knowledge should strive for simplicity and efficiency.Thinking of this, he still stepped into the darkness behind the door, and as he stepped in about ten steps away from the door, two rows of candles lit up on both sides of the wall, illuminating the path of the three people. Wide corridor.At the end of the corridor was a brick wall, which blocked the road and had to be bypassed on both sides.This design method is said to be brought back from the far east by the master here, that is, the teacher of the cheese.Bypassing the screen wall, Cheese finally saw the object he came to visit.

A huge wooden table, coupled with the fireplace next to it, a blond girl is reading a book by the light of the fire.This seems to be a peaceful scene, but cheese knows that the blond girl in front of her doesn't need any light source at all to see the text in the book in front of her. All the decorations here are just because of the interest of the owner here.

"Sister Lily, I'm here." Cheese walked to the girl's side, pulled a chair and sat down.

"Hee hee, my cute little cheese is finally back!" The girl had already closed the book when the cheese approached, and as she raised her head, those bright red eyes were particularly eye-catching.

"Senior sister, didn't we say not to be so nasty? I'm already done!" Cheese looked helpless, but he couldn't do anything about it. After all, this senior sister watched him grow up.

"My little cheese has grown up, don't you want to be called by my senior sister? Senior sister is so sad." Said, the girl made a distressed expression.

"Ahhh, can you be normal, sister! I have a serious business now!" Cheese said frantically.

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. Tell me, I will let you turn back in the middle of the adult task to ask for help. What problem did you encounter? My little cheese~"

Cheese with a black hair decided to ignore the title of his senior sister at the end of the sentence, and began to explain his problem.

"Today, I crossed Longji Mountain."

In a word, Alina, who was still chattering before, instantly became quiet.The expression on his face also became serious and serious.In fact, when this young girl is serious, the sense of calm in her body makes it difficult to connect with her appearance.

"The Frost people entertained me. And, I found this in their town." Cheese said, stretching out his left hand, and a thumb-sized green ball of light began to condense on his palm.

"This magic trace...is a plague. A magic plague." Alina said after staring at the light ball for a few seconds.

Cheese nodded, closed his palms, and the ball of light dissipated.

"Can you see what kind of plague it is?"

Alina frowned and thought about it, then said.

"No, I have no way to determine the type of plague based on magic traces alone. At least, give me a living case that is confirmed to be infected."

"Really... Then, can you roughly guess its transmission route?"

The blond girl thought about it again, but still shook her head.

"No, the difference between magic plague and ordinary plague is too great. Some magic plagues can even spread through language. It's hard for me to draw any conclusions without samples."

Cheese also frowned.

"Really, even you who specialize in disease science can't do anything?"

"Unfortunately, that's the truth. It seems that your trial has already begun." Alina said with a smile.

"Live samples? I see." Cheese bowed his head and thought for a while, then said.

At this moment, Ah Fu's figure came in from outside the house.

"Master Cheese, Miss Anlina, good night. Master, the laboratory you arranged is ready, do you want to use it now?" said the inhuman butler.

"No need, save it for me, I'm afraid it will take two days to use it." Cheese replied, standing up at the same time.

"Senior sister, then I won't bother you any more. It will be very troublesome if the villagers find out that I'm missing."

"Okay, okay, little cheese has grown up, and I don't have time to accompany my senior sister. Fortunately, I still have books to read here." An Lina pouted, opened the book on the table again, and stood on the table vigorously superior.

For this senior, Cheese can only smile bitterly. After all, although the relationship between the two is theoretically classmates, but for Cheese, this senior is more like a mother.

"Okay, I will solve this adult task as soon as possible. I will also bring back special products for the senior sister." Cheese said.

And An Lina just snorted lightly, didn't say anything, her dissatisfaction was palpable.In this regard, Cheese had no choice but to shrug his shoulders, and took Ah Fu out of An Lina's room.The master and servant quickly returned to the room where the cheese was transferred from at the beginning. On the obsidian base in the center of the room, the portal leading to the top of the dragon's spine opened silently.

Cheese thought for a while, picked up a new gray robe from Ah Fu, and put it on.

"Master, although I shouldn't have said it." Ah Fu said suddenly, making Cheese stop stepping into the portal.

"But I think you should spend more time with Miss Anlena, she will only be more emotional when she is with you."

Listening to the butler's words, Cheese smiled wryly again.

"Emotional indifference is actually the normal state of senior sister. After all, she is a high-ranking blood. Loneliness and indifference have almost been carved into her bone marrow. It is abnormal that she is so enthusiastic about me now, isn't it? "

"Yes, the subordinate is talking too much." Ah Fu lowered his head and said, if the blue substance sticking out of his collar is really his head.

"Forget it...you're right. I'll go back first. If there is news from the teacher, you know how to notify me." Cheese said, and stepped into the portal.And as he entered, the rift in this space gradually healed until it finally disappeared.The few lights in the dimly lit room were also turned off by the disappearance of its occupant, plunging into pure darkness.

Re-entering the room in the Dragon's Back Tavern, Cheese looked at the still dark sky outside the window, stretched his waist, he snapped his fingers lightly, and the runes attached to the doors and windows dissipated like floating dust, and then No one can tell that a portal has just opened here.

"Anyway, let's sleep for a while." Cheese murmured.
