It has to be said that the mercury statue is indeed a rare alchemy treasure.

However, the strength of those pre-set protective magic is obviously too low. Not to mention what would happen if halbo came, even in the view of Maka, who is a little less destructive now, it is easy to break through.

If we only rely on this defensive measure, the security can not be guaranteed.

Obviously, not only Maka, but also lupin had expected this. Therefore, Lupin would tell Maka about it early in the morning and remind him to come as soon as possible to repair and improve the protection in the town.

"You big liar!"

Looking at some awkward Luna, Maka and Ron looked at each other. When they saw the latter, they immediately turned around and pretended to see the scenery. Then they shook their heads in tears and laughter.

"Luna?"

He grabbed the girl's shoulder with both hands, pulled her over, and then said in a good voice:

"Come on, don't make trouble... When Haier Bo's business is over, you can play whatever you want. Even if you live in this statue, I don't care about you, okay? But now, I still have a lot of important things to do. Go back and have a good rest!"

At this point, Maka reached out at her waist, took out a tin jar and stuffed it into Luna's hand.

"Here, when you go back, make a pot of godigan tea, your favorite."

"Oh!"

As soon as Luna heard this, she immediately took the jar and opened it. She soon showed a surprised smile.

"I left my can at school and haven't drunk it for days! Well, I'll cook it now... See you tomorrow, Marca!"

Frank temperament is good. She can turn her head and forget everything. Maka starts running back happily when she looks at Luna, and she can't help smiling.

After a little meal, he motioned to Ron, who was still standing in a daze.

"What are you doing? Go back! I'm going to start working!"

"Ah?" Ron couldn't help thinking back when he heard the speech. "Oh, ok... Then... Good night!"

Watching them leave the square one after another, they soon disappeared into the crisscross and complex street. Maka stood still for a moment, and then suddenly turned around and looked at the other side of the square.

"Mr. taweng... No, it should be 'Mr. Gunter'," he shouted in the shadow of the alley over there. "Come out! It seems that you have something to say?"

After Maka's call, the figure who had been hiding in it realized that there was no need to continue hiding, and finally walked slowly from inside to the light of the street lamp.

Maka watched him walk through the square and step by step to the center of the square. At the same time, his eyes always stayed on the face of the mercury statue, and he couldn't help but gently raised his eyebrows.

"Sir," he repeated again, "it seems that you have something to say?"

Seeing that the other party didn't speak immediately, he couldn't help thinking a little, and then went on:

"... or is there a story worth listening to?"

"Why do you say that?" the other party replied faintly until now. "Just because I've been staring at this statue, it looks like 'there's a story'?"

"Isn't it?" Marca shrugged. "At least, I don't see any expression of appreciating art works in your eyes. It's a feeling of 'memory'... But a lot."

"Hum, it's really clever... If I could choose, I don't think I would choose you to be my son's teacher."

To be honest, it is hard to imagine that such a dialogue was generated in a squib and a conversation with a "genius" wizard.

However, they both seem to think it's nothing strange.

"Indeed," Maka said calmly when she heard the follow-up, "I must admit that I certainly won't be a qualified teacher! But how to say... In fact, I like this job more and more now."

"Really?"

Gunter shook his head as if to himself:

"I once heard a very excellent teacher say, she said, 'as a teacher, you don't need to have much outstanding knowledge and talent, but you must have an awareness of letting students practice themselves and then make mistakes'... In fact, she said a lot, most of which I don't think so, but I agree with this sentence."

When Maka heard the speech, she could not help nodding and agreeing:

"It's a great awakening. In this regard... I really can't do it."

Just then, he suddenly looked up at the mercury statue along with the other party's eyes, as if he suddenly said:

"Is that what she said?"

After a little silence, Gunter didn't answer Maka's question directly, but changed his words:

"She is Miranda Gunter, my wife and the mother of the boy Ernst."

"Oh?"

Seriously, the other party's words really surprised Maka. Although he guessed how much the other party had to do with the prototype of the statue, he didn't expect that there would be such a direct relationship between the two.

"Wait, according to the age when the spiral town was built... Mr. Gunter, I beg your pardon, but aren't you different from your wife -"

"Twenty one," Gunter said carelessly, "she's twenty-one years older than me... But what's the matter? If according to her actual age -"

As he spoke, he suddenly turned and glanced at Maka.

"Oh, do you think this statue is scaled up according to Mira's figure?" Gunter shook his head. "No, that's what she really looks like... Well, except that face."

"Well?"

Maka couldn't help looking at the statue again.

As a matter of fact, the statue was a little subtle to Maka when she said whether it was big or small - if it was a statue placed in the middle of the square, it would be a little small. If Hagrid came over, it would be about half a head higher than it.

But this is the real height of a human woman... Even if the base under its feet is taken away, none of the so many people just around the square can look at it.

"Giant hybrid?"

"Yes," Gang characteristic nodded, paused slightly, and then continued, "by the way... There are indeed stories. If you want to listen, I'll tell you... I have only one request. Anyway, protect this town!"

Obviously, there is no need to explain this sentence. Since the statue is his wife, it is not difficult to understand that the husband, as the founder of the town, wants to keep the heart of the spiral town.

"Please tell me about it!" Marca said. "I think I'd like to hear it."
