Wizard of science

The Conch is a large ship with three levels of cabins below the deck.

Li He left the Blackstone Castle and appeared in his own cabin.

After the Shadow Academy took control of the ship, Li He only focused on continuing his research. He did not do anything outstanding, nor did he participate in any bloody fights. His low-key style made him a Category III student, so he lived in the original cabin. , without any adjustments.

After taking a breath, he could clearly smell the musty smell in the cabin. Li He shook his head, but didn't pay too much attention and walked towards the door.

According to his speculation, it should be late at night in the outside world. There are no wizard apprentices stationed or patrolling in the cabin below the deck. The wizard skeleton will be busy recovering from his injuries as before and will not pay much attention to anything. He could take the opportunity to continue exploring the ship, and by the way enter the bottom cabin operation room to disassemble a few "inconsequential" and "not alarming" small parts for research, which would help him solve many doubts in his mind.

As a result, as soon as he reached the door, he heard a slight and urgent knock on the door.

Um?

Li He raised his eyebrows slightly, a little confused.

It's so late, who could be looking for him?

Aya Emily?

Speaking of which, after the other party took an anesthetic, he threw him directly into the Blackstone Castle, skipping the experience of robbing the big ship at the Shadow Academy.

When he was removed from the Blackstone Castle afterwards and the effects of the anesthesia were lifted, he was quite shocked to know that the ship was already under the control of the Shadow Academy.

But the other party quickly controlled his emotions and acted low-key like Li Hyuk. So far, he has been safe.

Did something unexpected happen?

Li He thought and opened the door.

As soon as the door was opened a crack, the person knocking on the door came in.

Looking at her, she saw that it was not Aya Emily, but a rather delicate boy, about sixteen or seventeen years old, with a baby face and a somewhat immature look.

After the other party came in, he quickly closed the door without waiting for Li He to make any move. He put his ear against the door and listened carefully for a long time to make sure that no one noticed. Then he looked at Li He.

The other party showed a serious look and said, "You are Li He, right?"

"Yes." Li He nodded lightly and looked at the other person inquiringly, guessing the other person's identity and purpose.

"It seems that you have found the right place." The other party breathed a sigh of relief, paused and said, "Let me introduce myself, I am..."

"Resisting the team, right?" Li He said.

The other party was stunned for a moment, then quickly returned to normal, nodded and admitted: "Yes, you guessed it, I am the leader of the resistance group 'Wildfire', you can call me Poole."

"So, you came to me because you want me to join you?"

"That's right." Poole, the boy, nodded and smiled, "You are very smart, and our group needs people like you."

"But I refuse." Li He looked at the other party and said calmly.

"Huh?" The other party was stunned, quite surprised, looked Li He up and down, and couldn't help but ask, "Why? Why don't you join us?"

"Why should I join you?"

Poole became excited and his tone increased: "Does this need a reason? As long as you are not blind, you can see the situation on the ship. People die every day, and too many innocent people are killed and thrown into the sea every day. Feed the fish. Today it will be him, tomorrow it will be me, and the day after tomorrow it may be you! If we want to survive, we have to unite! We have to find a way to change everything!"

Poole's words were impassioned and very convincing, but Li He was completely unmoved. After listening to Poole's words, he said calmly: "I want to ask a question - you said you want to unite and change everything, but why?" What about change? Kill the wizards of Shadow Academy? Kill all the wizard apprentices of Shadow Academy? Can you do it?"

"I..." Poole frowned a few times, clenched his fists, and gritted his teeth and said harshly: "I know this is difficult, but there is always a way. The wizard is very strong, and there are many lackeys who obey him, but he can always be found. You can always kill them when you get the chance!”

"So, you haven't found it yet, right?"

"I..." Poole was speechless.

Li He continued to ask: "Okay, assuming you find a way and really eliminate all the people in the Shadow Academy, what's next?"

"We will be free!" Poole's eyes flashed, "We won't have to live like this anymore, we will be safe!"

"Then what?"

"ah?"

"Then what? Staying on this big ship all the time? Can you sail the ship? Do you know the nautical charts? Do you know how to drive there? Do you know how to avoid storms and natural disasters?"

"I..." Poole's eyes widened and he clenched his fists. He couldn't help but want to retort, but when he opened his mouth, it was as if there was an egg stuck in his throat. He couldn't say a word, and he was holding himself back. Face flushed.

"me……"

Li He looked at the other party's appearance and couldn't help but shake his head in his heart. I had some knowledge of this so-called resistance group before, but now I have a deeper understanding through personal contact.

The spirit of resistance is good, but it may only be the spirit of resistance. Organizations are established based on anger, but there is no realistic way of resistance.

This is just resistance for the sake of resistance.

"How did you know my name? Why did you find me specifically to join your group?" Li He asked Poole.

Poole slowly closed his mouth, his morale obviously declining. After a while, he looked at Li He and then said: "I heard from others that you are called Li He and you have been staying in the third cabin below the deck. I never take the initiative to participate in bloody fights. I think you may be dissatisfied with your current life, so I came here to find you."

"It's that simple?"

"It's that simple." Poole said, "We in Wildfire have no threshold. As long as you have the same goal as us, you can join."

"But how are you sure that I am not a spy from the Shadow Academy? They deployed spies to attack the ship before, but now in order to maintain order, wouldn't they?" Li He said.

Poole was suddenly startled and looked at Li He with a wary expression.

Li He smiled: "Of course, I am not."

"real?"

"If it's fake, do you think there's still a chance to confirm it?" Li He asked.

Poole relaxed with some recognition.

"However, there is nothing to be happy about. I am not it, and it does not mean that others are not. The resistance organized by you is too crude, and it is difficult to succeed." Li He said bluntly, staring at Poole, "So, I can't find anyone to join you. Reason. Go back. If you are smarter, first figure out how to succeed in resisting, and then look for the person who resisted, otherwise... there will be no hope. "

"So, you refused, right?"

"yes."

"Okay, bye." Poole said nothing at all, turned around and left.

Li He was behind and said slowly: "Last advice, be careful when looking for someone, otherwise you may fail at any time."

"Huh, you're just trying to excuse your behavior." Poole said coldly, and walked out of the door without paying any further attention to Li He.

Li He was not angry, but shook his head slightly, feeling that he had seen the final result.

…

Fast forward two days later.

It was not yet completely bright when suddenly there was an angry sound on the deck.

"Everyone, come on deck immediately!"
