Iron Wall Fortress, in a cold hall.
In the open hall, there is a platform in front of it, and chairs below are arranged in sequence, arranged somewhat similar to the teaching rooms of the Wizards Academy.
Colon and Enzo sat quietly in their own position, next to them, a white-robed witch with a silver lightning logo embroidered with the collar of the Kendy family.
"You mean, Dean Flosley summoned the first-level wizards from all over the world this time to hold a competitive match?" Column frowned and hesitated.
"As far as I know, that's it!" Bellica, the white-robed witch, shrugged and raised her hand to combed her long hair on her temples.
"This is simply illogical!"
On the other side, Enzo also frowned and shook his head and said, ": The academy is now on an expedition. We have tried our best to fight against the sons of the forest. It is ridiculous to hold a competitive competition now!"
The so-called competitive competition is a game as the name suggests!
According to Belika's description, Dean Flosley summoned the first-level wizards from all over the country this time to hold a competition between wizards.
"When I first got this piece of information, I felt incredible and even doubted the authenticity of the news."
Bailika sighed and said, "But, this information was handed over to me by Grandpa Amos, so it cannot be fake!"
"Amos?" Enzo's eyes flashed.
Amos Kendy, the leader of the Kingdom of Layton, the leader of the Kendy family, and a second-level wizard like Gustav.
If the news was indeed revealed from him, then the authenticity was extremely high, but Enzo still couldn't understand why the academy suddenly decided to hold a competitive match during the war.
"Wait patiently, the academy will give us an explanation." Column pondered for a moment and said, ": Calculate the time, the first-level wizards of the Conqueror in other areas should be able to arrive at the fortress today. Notify us of gathering here, I guess they are planning to issue a formal notice!"
While several people were talking, more wizards entered the hall one after another.
The first-level wizards of the Conqueror in each area have arrived at the fortress within the specified time. It was last night that Enzo and Coluen received a notice to gather in the hall and happened to meet Belika, the blood cousin of Coluen.
The Kendy family has only two Conqueror Wizards, namely Column and Belika!
As time goes by, more and more wizards appear in the hall, many of which are familiar faces Enzo.
Others look a little strange.
Dean Flosley summoned the first-level wizard from all over the place this time, not only the members of the [Crow Phantom], but also the members of the [Skull Castle] and [Footty Blood Shadow] came to the Iron Wall Fortress after receiving the order.
Gradually, the seats in the hall were filled with seats.
Enzo looked around and found that there were less than forty first-level Conqueror wizards coming from all over the country, including less than forty members of [Crow Phantom], and half of them were left, and the remaining were two other organizations.
"Sure enough, the number of Conqueror Wizards is rare..."
Enzo murmured to himself, two different paths represent different rules of wizard civilization. Compared with the Guardian Wizard, the process of conqueror being promoted to wizard is more difficult, and the number is naturally scarce.
The three major organizations of the Dark Eleven Domain, the number of all first-level wizards is about 500, but most of them are Guardian wizards, while the Conqueror wizards are less than one-tenth.
Da da da da da!
At this time, with the sound of footsteps, the hall fell into silence. In the eyes of all the wizards, the wizard Mitchell in white robe slowly walked over, and a fiery red figure was still following him.
“Misella?”
Enzo raised his eyebrows and hadn't seen each other for more than ten years. Misera still looked like she remembered, wearing a red robe like a flame, and her temperament was rebellious and cold.
After following Mitchell into the hall, Misera found a random seat to sit down, while Mitchell's wizard came to the front and walked to the podium.
"Hello, little guys!"
"Now I want to announce good news. This time I call you to the fortress. The three major organizations jointly discuss and decide. A wizard competition will be held with all first-level wizards of the Conqueror!"
As soon as Mitchell finished speaking, there was a noise below.
Almost everyone whispered to each other and whispered with their companions. People such as Belika and Enzo who knew the information in advance were still calm, while others were a little emotional.
"What a joke? Wizards' Athletics?"
"Is the leader crazy? Now it's the 32nd tower I stationed in during the expedition, and I am always facing attacks from alien races. I actually summoned me here now just for a competitive match?"
"What the hell is going on?"
Mitchell was not surprised when he heard the whispers in the hall. He patted his palms lightly when everyone was almost talking.
A faint magic power spread around, and the hall suddenly fell into silence. All the wizards stopped talking and turned their eyes forward.
"I know everyone is confused about the competition."
Mitchell spoke slowly and said, "However, this matter was decided by several third-level wizards. Please do not question it and try to prepare everything as much as possible."
"This competitive competition will be held in three days, with a total of three rounds of competition. Finally, five winners will be selected from the forty first-level Conqueror wizards, and each one will be rewarded with a magic witch!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the hall suddenly stopped.
"Magic Witcher!?" A gleam flashed in Enzo's eyes, and a shocked feeling rose in his heart. He was already confused about the competition. When he heard that the final reward was five magic Witcher, he was even more shocked.
"Why are the three major organizations eager to hold wizard competitions, and even take out magic witchcraft as the final reward?"
Enzo's thoughts changed in his heart. He had a clear understanding of the preciousness of magic witchcraft. It was difficult for a first-level wizard to possess even if he devoted all his wealth to the first-level wizard.
Under normal circumstances, only a second-level wizard can get in touch with the magic witchcraft. As a strong man among the second-level wizards, Gustav also relied on the magic witchcraft [Soul Chain] to trap the mother of the giant tree in the Noel area.
According to rumors outside, the Kendi family, which has a second-level wizard in charge and has been passed down for thousands of years, has only three magic witches in total, and is the most treasure of the family.
"Mr. Mitchell, are you saying true?"
At this time, a red-haired wizard wearing a blood-red wizard robe and from [Boy Blood Shadow] stood up and asked in a deep voice.
In the hall, other wizards also turned their attention to the front, and everyone was waiting for Mitchell's answer. The value of the five magic witches was even a second-level wizard, so it was no wonder that everyone reacted so much.
"Do you think I need to lie?"
Mitchell chuckled. Among the six third-level wizards in the Dark Realm, he was notoriously gentle in character, so he did not care about the offense of the Red-haired Wizard.
"Sorry, Lord Mitchell, I'm so excited!" The red-haired wizard's heart jumped and he quickly apologized.
Mitchell smiled indifferently and said softly, "Okay, go back and prepare. The competition will be held in the underground arena three days later. If the specified time does not appear, it will be deemed to be automatically abandoned."
After saying that, Mitchell turned into a ray of light and disappeared from the podium.
"I actually used five magic witches as a reward for the competition!" As Mitchell left, everyone in the hall started talking again. Colonn looked surprised, but he felt a little excited.
"But...why?"
Enzo hesitated for a moment and hesitated, ": Now during the expedition, why did the academy suddenly gather conquered the conquerors wizards from all over the country and held a competitive competition with magic witches as a reward?"
"I don't care about this!"
Column's eyes flashed and he said in a deep voice, "Anyway, I must get the rewards of the competition. If I can own a magic witch, I can face it independently next time I meet the son of the forest!"
As a reward, the five magic witches completely ignited everyone's ambitions. The wizards who can choose the path of conqueror are all proud existences. Almost everyone thinks they are strong enough to become winners of the competition!
Among the people in the hall, even though Enzo is one of the few who can maintain his rationality, he still has a hint of desire for magical witchcraft.
After a while, everyone in the hall left one after another.
The competition will be held three days later, and everyone needs to prepare, and Column and Bailika also leave the hall, not knowing where to go.
"Long time no see, Enzo."
There were few people in the hall. When Enzo was about to leave, a fiery red figure walked up to him. It was Misera.
"It's really a long time no see, Princess Misera!"
Enzo smiled and greeted her. The two had not met for more than ten years, but the experience of fighting side by side on the ghost ship still made them have some friendship.
"Come on, accompany me out for a walk!"
Misella waved, with a hint of unquestionable domineering aura in her tone, and then turned around and left the hall and walked outside.
Enzo hesitated and followed.
...
On the empty road, green lawns are on both sides, and the air is a little cool, and the sunlight is cast from the sky, making it look particularly gentle.
"...You mean that Dean Flosley has confirmed the existence of the Aiqira Tree and has had a brief confrontation with it?"
The two figures walked side by side on the road. Listening to the information revealed by Misella, Enzo's face couldn't help but feel a trace of solemnity.
"Yes, that's exactly that!"
Misella nodded slightly and said in a low voice, ": I don't need to say more about the meaning of the fourth-level living body, you can understand it."
"If we don't solve the Aiqira Tree, we will never be able to complete the expedition!"
"The academy has plans?" Enzo's eyes flashed, and his thoughts changed.
"Maybe..."
Misella murmured, then shook her head and said, ": As far as I know, Dean Flosley summoned the Conqueror Wizards from all over the world to hold a wizard competition in order to select the strong ones and form a wizard team!"
Enzo's eyes flashed, but his face was not waiting for his voice.
Through a brief exchange with Messera, a question in his heart has been solved, that is, why the academy suddenly held a competitive match, and the reason was to select strong men to form a wizard team.
"Is there a special task that requires the top strong ones among the first-level wizards to complete?" Enzo thought to himself.
"After the competition is over, the strongest will form a wizard team." Then, Misera continued, ": There is a secret mission that needs to be performed by the wizard team!"
"What kind of mission?" Enzo asked in his heart.
"I don't know the specific content of the mission." Misella shook her head and said, "But it seems to be related to the Aiqira Tree!"
"Is it involved the Aiqira Tree?" Enzo was slightly surprised.
Things were indeed not that simple. Dean Flosley summoned the first-level wizards of the Conqueror from all over the country, not only to hold competitive competitions, but to select strong men to form a wizard team.
The purpose of forming a wizard team is to complete a secret mission related to the Aiqira Tree!
"What kind of task must be selected to complete the first-level wizard?" Enzo was a little puzzled. If the academy really wanted to complete certain plans, why didn't he send some second-level wizards directly, but spent a lot of effort to select members through competitive competitions.
"The secret mission seems to require crossing the Iron Wall Fortress and heading to the territory of the Sons of the Forest." Misella saw Enzo's doubts, so she explained, "If a second-level wizard is sent, it may attract the attention of the Sons of the Forest, so only a team of first-level wizards can be formed."
"So that's what it is..." Enzo murmured to himself, nodding thoughtfully.
All doubts seemed to be answered. Since special missions required crossing the Iron Wall and heading to the realm controlled by the alien race, in order not to attract the attention of the Son of the Forest, they could only send a first-level wizard.
"Why tell me this?"
Suddenly, Enzo raised his head and asked, the information Miserra had was precious information. If we followed the principle of equivalent exchange in the wizard world, Enzo should have rewarded it.
"It's nothing, just treat it as a favor to you."
Misella shook her head and said, ": I owe you once when I was in the ghost ship. I always wanted to repay it, but I didn't have a chance. Today's information should be regarded as interest."
"I don't remember what happened more than ten years ago, but you don't have to care." Enzo chuckled and touched his nose.
"We are from the Red Fort Kingdom, we will never owe our friends favors!" Misella said in a deep voice, "Please think about the competition. Although the rewards of magic witches are very attractive, the special tasks in the future may be dangerous!"
"Thank you, I'll consider it."
Enzo nodded, but had already made a decision in his heart. Since ancient times, the ones that have been with interests have always been danger.
Chapter completed!
