Sword and Magic and Taxi

Is this where the Greek team lives? Zhao Mai knocked on the door under the guidance of Solam. Each team has a Soram clone responsible for reception, so Soram appears everywhere in the hotel where the players live. The blue genie is always available, which is very convenient.

Who is it? The door opened, and it was a young man with black hair, wearing a loose white robe, with his wheat-colored right shoulder exposed.

Hello, I'm Mike from Hogwarts. I would like to ask if Diana Prince is here?

Oh, she was originally going to come, but she went somewhere and didn't catch up with the teleportation opportunity, so I replaced her. What can I do for you?

Forget it if she didn't come, I thought I could meet her this time. In that case, I won't bother you more.

The door closed behind Zhao Mai, and he didn't know where to go next, so he wandered around the hotel. In less than half a day, all the players arrived one after another, and the place became quite lively. Wizards of various colors and costumes were walking around, some enthusiastic and excited, others nervous and cold. Some wizards come to see the world and show themselves, while some come just to win. The competition was scheduled to be held during the Paris Peace Conference, so it was inevitably tainted with political ideas.

Since it is a youth championship, most of the players are just teenagers, and Zhao Mai's old face seems a bit out of place among them. Although he wore Hogwarts wizard robes, he was classified as a political player, so few wizards took the initiative to talk to him - except for one.

Fellow! Two familiar words froze Zhao Mai in place, unable to take a step forward. Fellow fellow, stay!

Zhao Mai took a deep breath and slowly turned his head. The person who called him must be fifty years old. His temples and hair are already gray, but his thick sword eyebrows are still thick and black. He was not tall, his back was slightly hunched but his shoulders were broad and strong. He held fists in his big hands and walked towards Zhao Mai with vigorous steps. I'm a pipeline engineer, so I guess you are Mike Longhou, right?

I haven't heard the word fellow for a long time, Mr. Guan. Zhao Mai arched his hands and was surprised to find that there was no energy fluctuation in his body at all, and his physical fitness was that of an ordinary person. He couldn't help but be surprised and said: Mr. Guan, you are Come to participate in the competition?

Mike...it's too awkward to call you that. How old am I? Do you mind if I call you brother? The pipeline engineer cupped his hands and said, Brother, I'm ashamed to say that I'm not a contestant. I'm just here. Service. Originally two contestants were banned from entering the country, but in the end I was the only one left here who couldn’t do anything. I only know a little bit of English and French, and I was just working as a translator to see the world, but I didn’t expect that I would become a This is the case. The peace conference is like this, and the competition is like this. I guess I won’t be able to put it right when I go back. So I’m asking you for help.”

Why is entry prohibited?

Two Taoist priests came here to exorcise ghosts. They brought the little ghosts they raised, but they were sent back. The pipeline master sighed: It's not that I don't want to find someone more upright, but it's really too far away and I can't get there in time. Come to Europe.”

I saw three people from Little Japan just now. How did they get there in time? Zhao Mai asked with a frown.

They knew the news earlier than we did. The pipeline engineer said: At the peace meeting, we were not allowed to enter for a long time. We didn't even have a chance to speak, and the news was even more blocked. By the time we knew there was such a meeting , there is only half a month left. Send a telegram back and look for people, but in the end there are only two people who can use the teleportation spell to get there.

I understand. Zhao Mai sighed. Before 1919, it was a period of great disaster for China, both in its domestic and foreign affairs. Being turned away from the Paris Peace Conference, the delegation went around asking for talent and got a chance to speak. The dream of the victorious country was finally shattered, and this forced the Chinese people to truly awaken.

Always placing hope on this or that, in the end it is better to rely on yourself. If you don't stand up on your own, it is useless. Only when you don't ask for help can you have real diplomacy. Whether it was at the Paris Peace Conference or this Wizarding Youth Championship, the truth is the same. How is it possible to expect diplomats or players to take back something that cannot be taken back in a war?

Brother Guan, my situation is quite special, and I may not be able to fully help you as you need. I cannot return to China, nor can I join the Chinese team. This is related to my personal situation and my family. In this regard, I'm sorry. Zhao Mai said: But within the scope of my ability, I will try my best to help you, without any ambiguity.

The pipeline engineer was stunned for a moment and nodded slowly: I took the liberty. It seems that I caused you trouble by looking for a substitute everywhere. I apologize to you. What trouble did your family encounter? Maybe I I can help you. Although I am a poor person in this land, I can still speak something in the country.

Zhao Mai shook his head and said: I trust you, but you really can't solve this matter, and the best situation for me right now is to leave it alone. Just treat this matter as something that needs to be cooled down and turned into a big deal. It’s the little things that make the difference. In short, the lower the profile, the better. If it is revealed, it will cause big trouble.”

Oh, it turns out that this is the case. I probably know it. I don't know how the pipeline engineer figured it out. In short, he accepted Zhao Mai's statement and went straight to the topic. Brother, I originally hoped that you would change the team to help me, but it seems that this is a bit too much. I am incompetent, but I can't come here, and I can't even express our own voice. I just ask , is there any way for me to participate in the competition, at least for a longer period of time, so that I can report my results. Absence is not an explanation!

You want to participate? But you are just an ordinary person and you don't know magic, right? No matter what the content of the competition is, it will be very dangerous. Are you willing to take this risk? You know, even if we win the championship and China wins the championship, for the Improving the situation internationally will also have no effect.”

I know. What has been done here cannot change the Paris Peace Conference... But I still have one last hope. I think it will be effective as long as I work hard! The pipeline engineer clenched his fists. We can't do this or that. There is no room for choice now. Just work as hard as you can!

Okay! If I understand the current situation and still have a strong will, of course I will try my best. Zhao Mai shook hands with him and then said: First of all, let's figure out how to compete in this game so that we can be targeted. Preparation for sex.”

Huh? You don't know the competition system yet? The pipeline engineer was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly said: The British seem to want to trip you up. But it doesn't matter. I asked for help everywhere, but I found out how the competition is played. This It has been verified by many parties and is definitely correct.”
