Most of the civilians in Mensobra City who were interceding for Thane before him were unknown to Thain.
Only the few in the front row, Thane vaguely remembered, seemed to be the underground humans he came into contact with when he was performing the Green Jaw Feather mission.
For Thain at that time, it was just giving some of the Green Jaw Feather flesh and blood that he could not carry with him to these humans.
But for these humans, the timely appearance of the green jaw feather flesh and blood saved nearly a thousand people from starving to death.
Just as Thane thought at the time, these underground humans were not willing to eat the flesh and blood of demonized creatures.
They sold almost all the flesh and blood of Greenjaw Feathers to buy back cheaper underground edible moss, and survived the severe period when crops were destroyed.
Driven by these hundreds of civilians, more and more civilians who had been favored at that time came closer.
The city of Mensobra has a population of 300,000. Because the black magicians are about to be wiped out, these underground humans will also usher in "liberation".
They will then be transported back to the surface by floating ships by the knights and magicians of the Holy Tower and Knights Hall.
Although these superior knights and magicians of the first level and above may not really care about the life and death of these civilians, this is one of the links in the mission of annihilating the black magicians.
After the mission is completed, both the Holy Tower and the Knights Hall will record it and evaluate the completion of their mission to encircle and suppress the black magician.
There were so many 300,000 civilians. When these people moved closer together, the few knights who didn't know the truth thought that so many humans had been helped by Thane.
In fact, the human circle in Menzobra is very small.
They are all just ants who rule under the high pressure and cruel rules of the black magician.
In this dark living environment, it would be better for them to have a black magic apprentice. For these underground humans, it is as warm and obvious as a ray of sunshine.
Even Thain himself didn't know that his unintentional actions back then had such a great impact and touch on these ordinary civilians.
In fact, Thain's kindness to these ordinary civilians was not limited to that one charity of Qing Jaw Feather's flesh and blood.
In the next three years of his apprenticeship, Thane's bimonthly academy missions would sometimes, more or less, bring him into contact with ordinary humans in Mensobra City.
Having one more baseline than other black magic apprentices makes Thain's personality charm stand out among all the black magic apprentices.
Therefore, when he was challenged by these powerful knights, it was these underground humans who were the first to do it for him and who had the courage to do so.
Of course, a large part of this factor is that these knights from the surface have a very gentle attitude towards them, and they have almost no offense against these weak civilians.
This is a group of knights who are more reasonable and abide by their principles.
A group of underground civilians spoke up for Thain, and finally touched the knight in shining armor who had been silent for a long time. He was the leader of this group of knights.
I saw him using the spear in his hand to stop the knight in yellow armor from handcuffing Thain with the magic-forbidden cuffs.
He took off the silver helmet he was wearing, revealing Cheng Liang's big bald head.
This is a bald man with a serious expression, and his black pupils are striking.
"Not all black magic apprentices are assimilated and polluted by those evil black magicians. They are actually one of the victims."
"Including good-hearted black magic apprentices, we also met some underground this time. A few of them were accepted as disciples by the magicians of the Holy Tower of Dawn." said the bald knight in silver armor.
The black magic apprentices he mentioned were mostly the low-level apprentices and entry-level apprentices who survived in Shadow Valley.
I won’t go into detail about the situation of entry-level apprentices, but most of the limited number of low-level apprentices who have been favored by the magicians of the Holy Tower of Dawn are relatively young and have not been completely infected by the dark atmosphere of the Black Magic Academy.
Because they were more motivated than ordinary apprentices, independent and sensible, several academic Holy Tower magicians couldn't help but love their talents and accepted them as disciples.
The public claim is that these Holy Tower magicians hope to lead these black magic apprentices back to the right path.
"Why are you helping civilians?" The knight in shining armor walked up to Thane and asked.
The opponent's unparalleled strength and breathless sense of oppression are enough to expose anyone with sneaky intentions.
Thane is only in his twenties this year, but the Knight in Shining Armor is a ruthless man who has fought in alien planes for hundreds of years, so he believes in his own vision.
Faced with the question of the Knight in Shining Armor, Thain did not show any pretense, almost following his true thoughts, Thain replied: "I don't think they are civilians, he just thinks they are human beings, and I am a human being too.
"
Thain's answer seemed to make the surrounding air stagnant for two seconds.
Immediately afterwards, the knight in shining armor burst out laughing. Unlike the group of first-level knights around him who just laughed at his companion Jike for being injured by a black magic apprentice, the knight in shining armor laughed more openly and boldly.
He wanted to pat Thain on the shoulder, but on the one hand, Thain's height of 1.8 meters was relatively short for him.
On the other hand, he was worried that he could not control his strength and hit Thain badly.
In the end, he just stuffed the silver helmet under his arm, waved to Thain, and said: "You want to see the Holy Tower Magician? Come on, I will take you to see Master Midici."
"About that yellow sand world, not only the magicians of the Holy Tower, but also me are very curious." The knight in shining armor said, and took the lead to walk into the city.
Looking at the back of the knight in shining armor, Thain followed him without any hesitation.
Of course, before leaving, Thane did not forget to bow slightly to the group of ordinary humans in Menzobra who were lying on the ground and interceding for him.
It was also at this moment that Thain realized that his mood was somewhat different.
What is the true meaning of magic? In the process of exploring magic, is it necessary to do everything possible like those black magicians, even to despise and ignore life?
Thain wanted to ask his mentor Moses this question.
With the wisdom of his mentor Moses, he should be able to give Thain some guidance.
But, where will the mentor Mosheduo be now?
…
At this moment, the city of Menzobra has changed a lot from what Thane remembered.
Nearly half of the once majestic city has now been reduced to ruins.
According to the knight in shining armor, they will completely overthrow and bury the city of Mensobra next.
This center of the underdark world is about to become a thing of the past.
"My name is Bakda, boy. If you succeed in being promoted to an official magician in the future, you can come to see me in the Knights Hall of the Earth Sword in the Endless South Sea of the Wizarding World. I am very optimistic about you."
The knight in shining armor said before taking Thain to a stone building in the east of the city near the central core area.
