Chapter 128: White Swan Magic Academy(1/2)
In the end, Kuili decided to waste half a day and follow Master Jay to the so-called White Swan Magic Academy.
Master Jay led Kui Li and Cheng Ke to the parking lot, where several manned trucks with dozens of seats were parked.
The passenger trucks are all spray-painted with the emblem of the White Swan family.
A white swan holding a five-pointed star.
Standing near the White Swan family's manned truck were people of all ages wearing windbreakers or magic robes, including orcs, humans, elves, half-elves, dwarfs, goblins, and even sea tribes and lizardmen.
It seems that they are the apprentices who were eliminated after the examination of the Black Poker Magic Academy.
"Are you... specifically here to rob people?"
Cheng Ke asked Master Jay unceremoniously.
Master Jay chuckled and said: "White Swan is expanding its enrollment. It has never been strict about talented people. As long as they have magic talent, alchemy talent, and martial arts training, they will all be apprentices."
Kui Li and Cheng Ke looked at each other, seeming to see the confusion in each other's eyes.
Cheng Ke hurriedly rummaged through his suitcase for some books and newspapers. Among them were some books and newspapers that he had purchased specially when he arrived in Ghat City. However, he had not yet taken the time to read them before registering at the Black Poker Academy of Magic.
Under the arrangements of Master Jay and other people from White Swan Academy, the apprentices all found their seats and sat down.
When the number of apprentices was confirmed to be full, the manned truck turned on the switch to receive energy from the magic tower, started slowly, and left the Black Poker Magic Academy along the straight avenue.
Along the Ring Road, the manned truck entered a ship base.
An escort airship rests on concrete painted in white with the White Swan family crest spray-painted on it.
Master Jay, who was following the convoy, shouted loudly: "Welcome everyone, please take the escort airship to the White Swan Magic Academy."
The apprentices boarded the escort airship one by one, sitting or standing and crowded into the spacious second and third floor cabins.
The top cabin and the fourth and fifth floors are where the crew, supplies, magic crossbows, crossbow racks, and alchemical gunpowder are stored.
The apprentices started chatting among themselves, asking each other for information about the White Swan Magic Academy.
Kui Li and Cheng Ke leaned against the cabin wall, talking to each other.
"If the environment is okay, register first and then go to other places to improve your magic level. How about that?" Cheng Ke asked Kuili with a smile.
Kui Li narrowed her eyes and said, "You're not trying to take revenge on the Black Poker Academy of Magic in a few years, are you?"
Cheng Ke shook his head and said: "How is it possible? Am I that kind of person!? I just have the idea that I can't go in vain. Anyway, just register here and it doesn't restrict personal freedom. Let's do what we do next
That's what you should do. First of all, the goal of being able to register with the Magic Guild has been achieved, and it will not prevent you from successfully entering a certain magic university in the capital of the Noda Empire later."
Kui Li put her hand on her chin and said, "It seems to make sense. There is indeed no conflict with the general plan."
But her voice turned cold again and said: "But to be honest, this is your excuse. I still prefer to hear the truth."
Cheng Ke had to make a sad expression: "Just now in the Black Poker Magic Academy report room, faced with the difficulties faced by the female mage Flora, I had a chance to show off, but I failed. I'm very sad
I feel ashamed and blame myself, and I hope I can have another chance."
"…….."
Kuili rolled her eyes speechlessly.
The White Swan family's escort airship flew for nearly an hour, spanning nearly the diameter of a city district, and finally landed at a flat parking lot paved with alchemical concrete.
Under the greeting of Master Jay and others, the doubtful magic apprentices walked out of the escort airship and took a look at the White Swan Magic Academy before making a decision.
Towering castles, vast plains, and snow-capped peaks. In the distance, there was actually the sound of waves.
Cheng Ke, who had sharp ears, couldn't help but asked Master Jay: "Is this also near the sea?"
"Yes. The territory of Marquis James is extremely vast. It borders the city of Gart, the territory of Marquis Perdis, and covers most of Harp Bay. The Billu River and the Bigang River both flow through the Marquis' territory and merge into Harp Bay.
.Most of our White Swan Magic Academy is located near the sea, and the academy’s naval subject teaching place is located near Bilust Pier, which has extremely excellent teaching conditions.”
The apprentices nodded one after another. Considering the geographical location of the academy, it sounded good.
Master Jay pointed to dozens of towering pavilions and castles not far away, and said: "That's the White Swan Magic Academy. It covers an area of nearly 4,000 acres and has 54 professor and mage towers, which can fully accommodate 10,000 people."
It has a teaching activity of nearly 2,000 people and has a service team of nearly 2,000 people, which can provide all kinds of life services. I once again reiterate the admission requirements of White Swan Magic Academy, which are very simple. First, for those who have magical talent and can sense magical elements
People are extremely tolerant, regardless of age or race, and even 50% of the tuition fee can be reduced. Secondly, for apprentices with alchemy, pharmacy, calculation, aviation piloting, ship piloting, or other outstanding talents, our White Swan Magic Academy uniformly recruits apprentices.
As an alchemy apprentice, he is responsible for cooperating with magic apprentices and mentors in various magic experiments and research."
Master Jay continued to introduce: "As I said before, White Swan Magic Academy has a seventh-ring magician as the honorary principal, and dozens of sixth-ring magicians as professors. The teaching subjects are spread across various fields. Since the teaching staff of each subject is different,
There are differences, and the tuition fees paid are also different. Those with strong teaching staff may have more expensive tuition, while those with ordinary teaching staff may have relatively cheaper tuition."
"Talents with outstanding talents and outstanding abilities are recruited by White Swan Magic Academy with large sums of money. Tuition is free!!"
When the apprentices who were abducted behind him heard this, their faces showed a bit of excitement.
"How do you identify which apprentices have outstanding talents and which ones have mediocre talents?"
An old man wearing a dark green magic robe asked.
Cheng Ke and Kui Li: "..."
Master Jay glanced at him silently, and then at his subordinates. He was very confused about which of his blind subordinates had kidnapped this guy. Didn't you see that he was older than me?!
"Who is your Excellency?"
The old man in dark green magic robe replied: "Hello, Master Jay. My name is Iverton. I am a garden artist who has been working for more than 20 years. I can cut various plants according to their growth conditions and attributes.
I will repair and make the garden more beautiful. I will also fertilize and breed.”
"Um..." Master Jay pondered for a while, "You can be considered a talent."
"Haha, really?! Thank you for your compliment."
"……."
At this time, a red-bearded mage wearing a magic robe flew from the half terrace of the distant castle. He wore a seven-ring thunder mage badge on his chest and held a yellow lightning-like magic spell in his hand.
stick.
In the world of magic sensing consciousness of many mages, a spherical protective shield instigating two pairs of elemental wings is surrounding a seven-ring thunder mage.
It is obvious that this red-bearded mage wearing a seven-ring thunder mage badge is a genuine seven-ring mage.
The Seventh Ring Mage slowly fell from the sky, looked around at the magic apprentices, and nodded slightly.
Cheng Ke thought silently: What a stinker. Are you going to show off to us apprentices who have never seen the world?
Sure enough, many apprentices were whispering.
"Wow, there really is a seventh-ring mage in this magic academy!"
"Yes! Although Master Jay seems to be a liar, he did not deceive us."
"I suddenly became interested in this college. If the tuition and fees are not expensive, I will sign up."
The seventh-ring thunder mage seemed to enjoy the admiration and fear of many low-level magic apprentices. After a long time, he looked for Master Jay and asked him to report the situation.
"This is the honorary dean of White Swan Magic Academy - Master Leonard."
After Master Jay loudly announced the introduction, he came to the front of the seven-ring thunder mage Leonard.
"This time, I brought nearly two hundred magic apprentices."
"Not bad."
"Should that be enough?"
"Even if there's half left, it should be enough."
……..
Even though Master Leonard and Master Jay were whispering, Cheng Ke, whose hearing was comparable to that of a black panther and a black cat, could barely hear the conversation between them clearly.
Cheng Ke frowned slightly and immediately opened the introductory book about the Magic Academy from the Gart Empire in his hand.
He rubbed the pages of the book with his thumb, turning them over and over again.
Cheng Ke concentrated on searching for words about the Magic Academy in the pages of the book that he kept turning.
Halfway through the page, Cheng Ke moved his thumb slightly and stopped turning the pages.
On that page of writing, there are several passages recorded.
The Magic Guild and the Gart Empire jointly declare: All magic academies newly established by counts, marquis and other organizations on the territory of the Gart Empire must recruit one thousand magic apprentices every year for five consecutive years before they can be awarded the Academy of the Magic Guild.
Ad hoc certification.
Cheng Ke quickly showed the pages to Kui Li.
Kuili's eyebrows twisted slightly and she smiled bitterly for a long time.
Cheng Ke whispered: "Wait a minute, let me ask Master Jay what year it is?"
Master Leonard and Master Jay chatted in a low voice for a long time. Their eyes scanned the apprentices several times, especially Cheng Ke and Kui Li, who looked up and down several times.
Even during the conversation, Master Leonard showed weird and shocked expressions from time to time, and shook his head from time to time.
In the end, Master Jay could only walk down.
Master Leonard faced all the apprentices, his voice was as loud as thunder, and said: "Welcome to the White Swan Magic Academy. My name is Leonard, and I am the honorary dean of the White Swan Magic Academy. You are also gathered here from all directions.
