Chapter 6 Real Faculty
After the nightmare-like basic alchemy class, the apprentices rested for about half an hour. Delta did not talk to anyone else during this time.
The academy recruits new students every three years, and this is the rule for apprentices who come in by any means. If you want to join midway, you must catch up with the courses that others have taken. Delta has taken two years less of classes, and has to
Studying the spiritual theory proposed by Quesgarten consumes too much energy and leaves no time for dealing with interpersonal relationships.
He can recognize everyone, but out of the pride of a mature soul, he is unwilling to participate in those childish topics. He only relies on sharing homework and answering questions for free to maintain his image of a kind-hearted person.
But today, no one wants to know more about Qiqi Mo's saliva.
Delta was also shocked again. Who would have thought that this thing would be used in the production process of the infinitely powerful magic scroll? Not only can it be used as glue, but it can also be used as a catalyst for some drug reactions. After drying,
It can also be used as rubber. Qiqi Mo itself can be fed to high-level demons as rations. It is really full of treasures.
He was lying on the table to rest, waiting for the next class to start. But someone tapped him on his shoulder.
"Fantasy, someone is looking for you outside." It was an apprentice who he could talk to who spoke to him.
"Thank you for the notice." Delta stood up and walked down the stairs. This kind of lecture theater allows more students to be accommodated in the same space, which is one of the few economical behaviors of the college.
When he arrived outside the door, standing was Master Hezaf. He was once Kuisga's apprentice and was now an assistant. Therefore, Delta guessed that Kuisga had something to do with him.
really,
"The instructor asked you to come over. He said that your assessment has begun."
Delta asked in confusion: "Didn't you say it would start after the promotion exam?"
Khaizaf wears thick glasses. Even so, he has to frown in order to see things clearly. He has a very serious expression, but he is actually very talkative: "One third of the lecturers at the Star Tower were recruited to go to the front line.
The star track magic circle that reinforced the city included one of the six directors who were spectators when the Seventh Tower had its owner, His Excellency Francis. The military meant that it was best to set off the day after tomorrow, and they took out a magic weapon that could not be used by him.
The advantage of rejecting it. It happened that the spectators from the Star Observation Tower and the Academy of Natural Sciences also arrived last night, so the assessment was advanced, otherwise it might have to wait a few more months."
"Is there going to be a war in the kingdom?" Delta followed behind Hazaf, and the shadow turned into a physical entity to support him in moving.
"The kingdom has been at war with Jin Gou. It started more than twenty years ago."
"It's been a long time." Delta knew that Disorn was at war when he didn't enter the academy, but he didn't expect that they were still fighting after four years in the academy. His hometown in his previous life was considered a peaceful era, and this kind of protracted war
I have never seen war with my own eyes.
"Who says it's not?"
Hazaf's long black academic robe dragged the floor. He didn't pay attention to lifting the hem of the robe until he reached the floating saucer, otherwise it would get stuck in the gap. He turned around and saw Delta moving with the shadow, and raised his eyebrows: "
I heard from Professor Kritz that he was shocked by you the last time he used the floating saucer."
"Then I'm sorry." Delta shrugged insincerely, but it was quite forgivable considering the beauty he inherited from elves.
With the help of the floating saucer, the two quickly passed through the suspended corridor to the top of the main tower. There was the dean's office and laboratory. Many chemists were already waiting.
Dean Plakent was receiving spectators from other forces, and introduced the old mage Quisga to the female mage in front of him who came from the Academy of Natural Sciences, had an ordinary bluish complexion, and was dressed like she was attending banquets rather than activities between mages.
There are twelve or thirteen mages from different forces in the spacious office. What they have in common is that the forces they represent are inextricably linked to the official kingdom.
Some of the mages were familiar with each other and seemed to be chatting there after not seeing each other for a long time.
As the dean, Prakent does not have the highest magical attainments in the academy. His duty is only management. He must not only protect the interests of the Baitila Mage Academy from being damaged, but also ensure that the actions of the academy cannot deviate from the development of the kingdom.
The time spent dealing with the river nobles far exceeded the time spent studying magic, so he was able to retain his black hair and still looked like an elegant middle-aged man in the prime of life.
When Hezaf and Delta pushed the door open, everyone stopped chatting and looked at Delta.
The female mage who was chatting with the dean before had a burning look in her eyes: "I guess this is today's little protagonist."
"Yes, he is my apprentice Delta Fantasy. He has never learned magic before, and now he is the first person to master the power of shadow." Quesga waved to Delta and motioned for him to come over.
A mage belonging to the Mysterious Eye Mage Guild raised his staff and said: "Kisga, we are gathered here today to witness the miracle. You have always been rational and reliable in the past, and I hope you will be the same now."
The implication is that he is afraid that he will cheat by using alchemical items.
Quesga's response was to spread his hands and his face was radiant, making people temporarily ignore his white hair and wrinkles, as if he had regained his youth at this moment:
"The miracle is here."
Delta approached with some nervousness. So many high-ranking mage-level spectators really made him nervous. He felt like he was standing among a pile of explosives with exposed fuses, and could easily be shattered to pieces. He followed the instructions and showed off his abilities.
, those twisted shadows caused an uproar among these beings whose reputation and ability stood at the top of the Disorn Kingdom.
"It's incredible. There is indeed no trace of the movement of magic energy."
"Obviously the existence of shadow is just an optical phenomenon, so why can it be directly manipulated?" A mage from the Academy of Natural Sciences sighed, as if the common sense in the past had been broken.
Master Kochol from Sword Kiss Bay was even more outrageous: "This shouldn't be like this. The role of spirituality is obviously to increase the effect of spells. How can you drive spells independently of magic energy!"
Feeling the tyrannical and substantial spiritual power sweeping over her body, Delta was so nervous that she couldn't even feel shame. She only felt pain in her internal organs as if being hit by water, and the mage squatted down regardless of his appearance.
, in order to observe those freely moving shadows more carefully.
Fortunately, Quesga saved him: "The facts have proven everything, now let my apprentice go to rest first." He motioned to Hazaf to take Delta away.
"The mixed blood of elves is more precious than gems. Where did you find this apprentice?" A mage asked enviously after discovering that Delta's bloodline was not that of a normal human being.
Quesga smiled and said nothing.
Delta was as quiet as a quail, and did not return to his usual state until he left the main tower. The way the masters looked at him was no different from looking at a piece of rare ore. Some of them even seemed not to want him to exist, or to say that they had no influence on him.
For a professional like a mage, when he was scanned by those mental powers, he could clearly feel that there were two forces that seemed to want to damage his internal organs and cause him to die of organ failure in the future, but he was finally stopped by Quisga.
Delta guessed that they were the ones who had criticized Kuisga's theory the most before. After today, the news about the change of ownership of the seventh tower of Baitila Mage Academy will spread to the top officials of the Disorn Kingdom, and their reputation will also be affected.
A serious blow.
"It's really scary." Delta's desire for power became even stronger.
Haizhaf thought he was frightened by the attitude of the wizards: "Don't be afraid, those silk robes embroidered with silver threads and gems are just ordinary human bodies wrapped in them. Staying in the wizard tower all year round will inevitably have some quirks.
.You don’t need to deal with them, the tutor will take care of everything.”
"Thank you," Delta responded listlessly, secretly deciding to settle the accounts with them when he reached the level of a high-ranking mage.
He suddenly remembered something and said: "Didn't you say that they came to watch the ceremony? Why did it end after just checking?"
Khaizaf explained: "In fact, observing the ceremony is just a way of saying it. After all, it is not the ancient Pafa Empire, and there are not so many etiquettes. Those who observe the ceremony actually have to return to their respective forces to write reports after confirming the results. Ques
Adding a tutor also has to deal with various procedures, such as the cleaning of the seventh tower."
"Wait a minute," Delta asked in confusion, "doesn't the tower itself have a self-purification circle?"
"No, the college assigns cleaning tasks to poor students from the summoning and element departments to deduct tuition. Every night, the demon attendants or elemental creatures summoned by them clean the tower, but sometimes things get out of control.
phenomenon, demons going berserk or elemental creatures self-destructing. So the academy simply prohibits apprentices from traveling at night."
"Is it so real?" Delta was surprised, feeling like she was living in a school on Earth.
"Not only that, these guests who are watching the ceremony will not visit the seventh tower, because this tower has been closed for more than a hundred years, and the latest floating dishes are not installed. The library is still empty, except for the piles of a hundred
Years of dust, there is really nothing to see." Khaizaf was unexpectedly talkative.
"Probably during the vacation after the promotion exam, the instructor can recruit some mages and scholars to fill the tower, and the college will allocate funds to pay their salaries, and the library will no longer be empty. After almost a year of preparation, the instructor's mind is high
The tower can officially recruit apprentices."
Hazaf is also full of longing for a better future. As a disciple of the Lord of the First Tower, his status is much higher than before. Perhaps he will be able to leave the academy soon and work as a mage consultant for a noble family or do magic for their children.
The money a tutor can earn is not comparable to the current teaching assistant job.
Delta thought of a serious question and immediately asked it: "I will be promoted to the first mage soon. Originally, the academy stipulated that apprentice promotion must major in the subject of the tutor's work. The tutor is now a senior lecturer in the Secret Text Department and also a
The director of the Psychic Tower, but the official operation of the tower will have to wait until next year, so should I major in the Secret Department or the Psychic Department?"
"This" Haizhaf couldn't answer, so he had to say: "Why don't you go back to class first? I'll ask you about this."
