One-Eyed Monster

Chapter 1052: Chapter 1050: Rare Guest (Part 2)

Igor was baffled for a long time; how could there be another line?

Perkins said there were only two lines, how could there be a third one, and it’s Director Hoffman’s?

Igor couldn’t figure it out. Has this line always existed?

Could it be that Hoffman knew everything that happened on Guru Mountain before?

The more Igor thought, the more confused he became, but the more confused he was, the more he thought. He always felt like he was half a step behind.

"What’s wrong, Igor?" Grand Master Guzan asked softly.

"I, I... I don’t know." Igor was straightforward, honestly expressing his puzzlement, "Could it be that the mentor has been in touch with Hoffman from Luona long ago?"

"That’s your question, you’re worried that you’ve been kept in the dark, and everything happening on Guru Mountain was known to Dean Hoffman, and he played a drama in front of you?"

Igor nodded repeatedly, not expecting Grand Master Guzan to deduce so thoroughly what he was thinking.

"The doubts in your mind are written on your face early on, hahaha." Nearby, Goodley laughed until his stomach hurt.

"Igor is still a pure child, don’t mock him like that." Kuren quickly stopped those mocking folks.

"My contact with Dean Hoffman is only in recent days, and it was your friend named Perkins who helped set up the line." The mentor was very honest, he never hid anything from Igor, and now he’s speaking the truth.

Igor, by nature, wasn’t a suspicious person, always believing what others said without question, and this time was no exception.

Indeed, it was true, when Dean Hoffman learned about Perkins’ contact with Igor, he asked Perkins to set up a line for him as well, saying he also had an old friend on Guru Mountain, an old friend who hadn’t been in touch for years, and asked Perkins to handle it. Naturally, Perkins did not dare to slack off and immediately set up this line for Dean Hoffman.

In this way, Dean Hoffman and Grand Master Guzan got connected.

Their communication became very deep thereafter.

They were old friends who hadn’t seen each other for years, and at this moment, knowing each other’s whereabouts, there was naturally a lot to discuss, even though the Mail Bird line had just been connected not long ago. However, given the Grand Master is an Alchemist, these bits of Exchange Beast communication via Mail Bird are not a problem, allowing the frequency of exchanges between him and Dean Hoffman to far exceed those between Igor and Perkins.

"I think, next time you’ll know about this Mail Bird line between me and Dean Hoffman." The mentor chuckled, he always hoped to take Igor as a student and still did, but unfortunately, Igor showed no interest in complete alchemy, so he had to give up.

"Uh..." Igor didn’t know what to say, he stumbled over his words.

"Hahaha, let’s drink, what’s to say Sol might come here at any moment!" The mentor raised his glass, merely a shell of a Rum Fruit, and drank it in one gulp.

Everyone returned to their original joyous state, singing and dancing as appropriate!

Night had just fallen, the light from the bonfire instantly illuminated the White Swamp, although not as bright as daylight, still providing decent lighting.

Soon, a blue light circle suddenly emerged on the ground right next to Igor.

"This..." Igor already anticipated what was to happen next.

This blue light circle was clearly the Teleportation Spell of the Sol Brothers!

Could the Sol Brothers be arriving on Guru Mountain at this moment?

How urgent this is!

Igor found it unbelievable, the Sol Brothers seemed in such a rush!

Before long, the blue light circle grew brighter, drawing everyone’s attention, causing them to cease singing and dancing, and quiet down instantly.

The blue circle’s light gradually turned golden yellow, eventually merging with the color of flames, spreading around with a sizzle.

Two youths, looking strikingly alike, suddenly stood in the center of the light circle.

"Everyone’s at a gathering then!" Stan Sol spoke first, still quite familiar with everyone.

"Seems like we came at just the right time." Tobin Sol said.

"You... are you targeting me?" Igor asked in surprise.

"Yes, because you impressed me the most. Luckily you didn’t wander off, or I wouldn’t have been able to teleport here." Stan Sol smiled; ever since arriving in Luona, his stuttering habit had vanished, allowing him to articulate fluently now.

"Uh..."

"Igor, why are you stunned? Such rare guests have come, yet you don’t offer them a bowl of wine or a piece of meat?" Kevin exclaimed loudly, like scolding an ill-mannered child.

"Oh oh oh." Igor snapped back, quickly taking the Rum Fruit shaved by Kadi, "Take a sip first, you’ll be surprised by this fruit’s juice."

"Is this the Rum Fruit that Rostellum sold to the wine merchants?" Tobin Sol asked after taking a sip, evidently enjoying the taste.

"Yes, it’s quite good, isn’t it? I particularly like this stuff now. Though I haven’t tasted good wine, the flavor of this fruit is really delightful!" Igor said with a smile.

"The taste is indeed good!" Stan Sol also praised after a sip.

"Haha, well, I didn’t expect you to come here so quickly. Seems like our gathering is perfectly timed!" Kevin chuckled.

"This must be Senior Kevin; I’ve heard my brother mention you." Tobin Sol started recognizing the people before him.

"You are Stan’s brother?" Kevin was clearly surprised, evidently having heard of the Sol Family’s genius young man.

"Yes, I am Tobin Sol."

"A talented individual indeed, I like people like you." Kevin chuckled merrily, patting Tobin Sol on the shoulder.

"This must be Master Guzan." Tobin Sol looked at Master Guzan, asking with respect.

"I am Guzan, but not some master, hahaha."

After the mentor said this, Tobin Sol suddenly pulled Stan Sol to kneel on the ground, kneeling: "Thank you, Master, for taking care of Dastan, the Sol Family will never forget."

The Sol Brothers’ gesture stunned everyone, none of them expected the Sol Brothers to do such a thing.

"Without the mentor’s care, Dastan wouldn’t have emerged from the shadows in his heart, nor had a chance to meet Stan." The Sol Brothers continued.

The mentor glanced at the Sol Brothers, then sighed: "Stand and talk, I haven’t done much, everything that’s happened was really Dastan following his own beliefs and making his own choices."
