Russell and Carpenter, under the careful guidance of Hill, worked hard to learn the basics of mage... However, this basic concept was a bit too advanced.
In other words, Hill's teachings to them are almost equivalent to the learning scope of the Central Mage.
Of course, although Russell and Carpenter also knew that their teachers liked to mix various courses together, so the courses sometimes slightly exceeded their level and strength, but when the learning of spells was still going on step by step,
They still can't imagine how far ahead of schedule they are.
But for Hill, all of this is the foundation.
As for the spell level... if you accumulate enough energy, you can naturally learn new things without spending so much energy.
Even if there were ups and downs in his previous life, he had never experienced any problems in learning magic.
Therefore, his teachings are really difficult for people with insufficient qualifications to endure.
But Carpenter had long been accustomed to listening to lectures where half the lectures were like reading from heaven. She turned around, picked up her notebook, and wrote furiously, trying to record some words and symbols that she could remember and understand.
After she has digested the previous knowledge, Carpenter can go to Russell, who must have already learned it, to learn the second half.
Looking at her half-understood runes, Russell could understand where her faults began.
And Russell, who still bears all of Carpenter's expectations, is even less likely to think about unnecessary things... It has taken all his effort to swallow the teacher's teachings wholeheartedly.
------------------
The construction of the magic tower cannot be accomplished overnight.
Even though Root had the full cooperation of several students... mainly the students assigned near his main tower.
Although some mages prefer to live independently, there are always people who are willing to stay with stronger mages for the sake of the future.
In particular, Root's main tower must have a powerful enough energy pool...that is, enough energy that the side towers connected to the main tower can live well without consuming too much.
In that case, the energy gems originally allocated to them to build the element pool can become capital for their advancement.
Moreover, the most important thing is that only those who are connected to Root's main tower are qualified to be beside Root and take care of daily affairs.
Root was never stingy in rewarding students who had put in a lot of hard work for themselves.
In the past, because the Tower of Black Mystery consisted of three main towers, and each main tower had only three subsidiary towers... Not to mention that Aisling and Oliva each occupied one tower, and there was another one, Root would rather leave it empty.
No students were selected to live there.
Although there are rumors that if Gilbert hadn't been seriously injured, the tower would have belonged to him... But Gilbert really didn't have that blessing, did he?
Of course, everyone can also understand that after having two completely trustworthy disciples who can help him complete his daily work, Root will only choose the students with the best talents.
At least better than Gilbert.
No one can argue with this, but no one is unhappy... A goal that no one can achieve is almost nothing.
Therefore, even though Root's students had many ambitions, they all held back because of external circumstances.
But, this time, perhaps because the Tower of Siya put too much pressure on him, Root actually chose to build five auxiliary towers in addition to his main tower!
Aislin and Oliva naturally have one each, and no one dares to compete for this.
However, Gilbert, who was the most threatening, was kicked into the corner because of Aisling's momentary dissatisfaction.
And Root obviously didn't intend to slap Aisling in the face for such a trivial matter.
Since Gilbert was obviously not interested in Root's orthodox inheritance...if he had offered to give up his magic tower and stay with Root at that time, it would be useless no matter how dissatisfied Aislin was.
That's why Root's other students realized: Gilbert himself was the type who planned to follow his own path. Even after his spiritual recovery, Root valued him more, he still did not change.
.
In fact, the reason why Aislin dared to do this must be because she also knew this.
Moreover, when Gilbert and Aisling are put together... even those Root students who have no intention of entering the circle of power are a little shuddering.
That's really true, you never know when you will be accidentally injured: neither of them are madmen who would pay attention to whether anyone around them is affected.
Besides, no matter how great Gilbert's talent is, it is still in the declining Dark Mystery Tower... and the worst new apprentice in the Tower of Thea is probably not much worse than him.
Even though Root still values Gilbert very much, in the eyes of many people, as long as there is an apprentice who makes Root very satisfied, Gilbert's sense of existence will naturally gradually weaken.
Who knew that Aisling, who was with Mr. Root, had a really bad relationship with him?
Originally, there were still people who tried to establish a good relationship with Gilbert, but under the current unexpected situation, most people started to wait and see.
Anyway, because of the tit-for-tat confrontation between these two people, the location of the annex tower was instantly vacated.
Then, even if Root wants to leave one, no, two seats to his best students in the future!
Then they also have the opportunity to compete for control of one of them!
Therefore, when Archmage Lute was preparing to build the tower, he unexpectedly encountered a series of flattery from more than a dozen students of the Seventh Ring.
Even though he had been mentally prepared for it, Root never expected that there would be so many!
You know, he always thought that his students didn't like being around him!
Is the intimidation power of Aisling and Oliva really that great?
Although he did not understand the sudden enthusiasm of these people, Root directly chose two people without hesitation: one of them was naturally Coyiner.
As for the other one, considering that Aislin might not be able to do some daily chores in the future, Root simply chose the only female mage among them, Jenny Rojas.
It just so happened that Oliva didn't want to take on female apprentices for a long time... Although Lute's eyes were pretty good, no matter whether the person he liked had something wrong with him, he didn't like to ask for help and always tried to
The type of person who relies on others for survival, but women are tigers, which are really the eternal mark in his heart.
Thanks to Aislin's sincere help, a soft-eared being like Oliva would never be fooled by a woman.
Besides, at that time, Root rarely accepted apprentices.
But now, when he arrives at the Tower of Thea, Root knows that he will not have as many choices as he did in the past... There will inevitably be mutual testing at the beginning, and the attitudes of both parties will be a bit sensitive. It is impossible for him to refuse the right person at this time.
The apprentice enters his magic tower.
The four students, plus the mages who followed them, made the construction of Root's magic tower much easier.
Therefore, when Nicholson led the crowd to the Tower of Thea and received a warm welcome, he was extremely surprised to find that his old buddy, Archmage Lute, was about to move his magic from the aircraft.
Tower!
Although there are still five auxiliary towers with two lower floors still under construction.
"I said, Lute..." Nicholson looked at Archmage Lute who was entertaining him in the empty magic tower hall, and frowned, "You did this in order to build the magic tower earlier.
Pentagram array?
But this...what you pay later will not be far more than..."
"Nicholson." Root shook his head helplessly: Although there are not many students he can trust, it is much easier for him to make a choice than Nicholson.
"The elemental pool here in the Tower of Siya accumulates energy very quickly.
Therefore, time is more valuable than resources." Root could only choose to point out another benefit that Nicholson could understand, "Besides, we don't need to be like in the past..."
"That won't work!" Nicholson replied quickly, "You can't get rid of me.
I will also build a five-pointed star!"
"Do you have enough people you can trust?" Root sighed and said lightly, "Why should there be people living in the three annexed towers!
Otherwise, there is no point in building a five-pointed star."
"Don't worry, I don't have any other skills. It's okay to let them fight among themselves until only the people I want are left." Nicholson puffed out his chest.
Does this kind of prophecy, which can only be used in useless places, really have any meaning in existence?
Every time Root encounters a similar situation, he can't help but sigh.

"Teacher, Master Keyin'er is here to visit." Carpenter's voice came through clearly.
Sitting in the lobby of his magic tower, admiring the elegant interior designed by Carpenter with his own aesthetic, and enjoying his mint julep, Hill blinked in surprise: This person would actually come to him with this look.
The guy who is a 'loser'.
After thinking for a moment, Hill turned out a bottle of crystal clear green mint julep and placed it on the table. Hill smiled and said, "Invite him in!"
The wines in this world are all brewed based on herbs. Although they are called wine, the alcohol concentration is almost zero... But this also surprised Hill. Even in a world where supplies are so expensive, wines are still available.
It is a necessity for people to relieve their emotions!
However, although the taste he drank was similar, it was brewed by himself: for a being like Hill, as long as he has the recipe for brewing and the finished wine can be observed, it is basically impossible.
What difference appears.
Even if he couldn't tell if there was anything wrong with the drink, Hill would definitely not drink a mint julep made with ingredients from this world.
But it was impossible to give it to others, so Hill could only dig out the Heinalson family's collection.
When Coyin entered the hall, he heard a cold invitation: "You came at the right time.
