His teacher's personality is really unpredictable.
Originally, he had always thought that Gilbert was a little extreme because of his past experiences, but how could an extreme person think of asking his apprentices to copy life mottos as a means of punishment?
However, this also made him feel relieved.
Even if Gilbert really plans to take risks after he becomes an official mage, he seems to be quite confident that he will be able to overcome that difficulty.
How should I put it... If it was certain to die before, now, according to Russell's own judgment, it has become that even if the risk fails, it will not cause life danger.
That's good, at least after entering the Tower of Thea, he and Carpenter have someone they can rely on.
If in the past, Russell thought that it would be good to just become an official mage, after entering the Tower of Black Mystery, especially after seeing West's performance, the little boy really understood that the mage world is crueler than he imagined.
Much more.
Gilbert really has a contingency. Even if Carpenter becomes an official mage, the two of them want to protect the family and even give the family a chance to move to the Tower of Thea in the future. There is absolutely no hope.
Russell turned his head and glanced at Carpenter, who was lying in the lounge and engrossed in copying.
In fact, their time is quite tight. If they want to copy more standardizedly, they can only use the intermission time.
In the past two days, Russell could always see the anxious expressions of those desperate people in the tower opposite... Carpenter wrote very slowly, and she didn't even have a chance to raise her head during this period.
He thought about it for a while, then called his sister softly: "Carpenter, you are already a high-level apprentice. So, have you learned the third illusion?"
It's a pity that his sister still failed to advance before he turned 16, and she just missed it by a few days.
Otherwise, Carpenter could directly change his status from a trainee apprentice to a formal one.
Now, she can only wait for the day when she becomes an official mage before she can change her identity plate... Fortunately, when the Magic Tower distributes resources, it only looks at the level, not whether it was spent money.
Of course, among the people who spent money to come in, it seems that only their Carpenter has advanced.
"I learned it. In the past two days, I followed the teacher's instructions and used general spells and illusion spells together. It seems that they are indeed a little different.
Hmm...especially magic tricks. The more familiar you are with them, the deeper your understanding of the phantom sound technique becomes.
I feel that my mental strength has also increased a lot.
I've been reading about the enchantment-based stun spell for the past two days.
The teacher said something, although the magic systems are different, the connections between them are actually inextricably linked... In that case, I seem to understand a little bit!
Brother Russell, if the teacher hadn’t placed very high demands on the purity of our mental power, we should have been able to advance by now.”
Russell shook his head: "Don't be impulsive because of things outside, you know?
Think about the Master West who came two days ago. His identity is actually similar to ours, and he is a little better than us.
Although there is no family behind him, there is no pressure either.
But you see... his reverence for the teacher is not because of Archmage Lute."
"Only after entering the Tower of Black Mystery did I know who our teacher is." Carpenter suddenly rolled his eyes, "If only 20, no, even 10 years ago, there were several talented people in our family,
None of the Heinalson family would be in this situation.
In fact, the longer I spend time with the teacher, the more I understand Ulrich’s mood of always being at odds with the family elders.”
Back then, when Ulrich's father was still here, the eldest brother, who had seen what his own brother had suffered, was sure that he could not make use of his children's talents, and there were not many capable people in the family.
From now on, it is actually suggested that the family pays to raise a few outsiders... They don't need to be very good to the family, but as long as they give birth to a talented child with the family's apprentices, that will be enough.
They can simply send those people away with gifts, and they won't have to raise their children...the best result would be to ignore them.
Although the Heinalson family will spend some resources for this, and even the favors from Gilbert... The Heinalson family cannot deal with people who are talented enough to enter the magic tower themselves. They
You can only choose the guy who is a little bit worse.
Generally speaking, this kind of children are those who are talented, but due to their living environment and poor physical condition, they cannot withstand the rapid improvement of their mental power... Just a bottle of standard physical potion is enough.
Especially some female apprentices.
Although this sounds unpleasant, for female apprentices who come from poor families, their physical fitness is really a difficulty.
The environment of this world is a bit too harsh for girls... No matter how poor the family is, they will not give up a qualified child, regardless of whether they are male or female, but they cannot provide enough nourishment for these children.
Girls who are born with inferior physiques have to pay more to reach the same level as men in terms of physical attributes.
Mental power can indeed supplement physical requirements to a certain extent, but this means that if they want to become high-level apprentices, they must be stronger than men.
Therefore, most of the female apprentices in the Magic Tower have good backgrounds.
As for those female apprentices who have acceptable qualifications but cannot enter the magic tower due to various reasons, they can only choose to marry early.
Although this is a good ending for those female apprentices who were born in poverty, at least she and her future children will no longer have to live that miserable life, but... if there is a chance, who can really only accept this kind of life?
A helpless fate?
Therefore, if the Heinalson family is really willing to offer such conditions, there must be many similar apprentices willing to accept it, especially a few decades ago when the Tower of Black Mystery was in a bit of a downturn but not yet decadent.
Although the Magic Tower generally doesn't like people who have taken medicine before becoming high-level apprentices, the situation of the Black Mystery Tower makes the constitution medicine a bit ambiguous...otherwise, those mage families will not always have the right medicine.
The standard mage appears.
During the qualification test, whether you can pass the constitution medicine is a negotiable issue.
But this discussion depends on who is speaking.
At that time, Gilbert did have the ability and the will.
It's a pity that the Heinalson family is still a little short-sighted... They think that there will always be children with outstanding qualifications in their family.
Gilbert's talent is actually pretty good. There's no way their family can only have one like this, right?
Didn't the genius who was in the Defense Tower also come from the Heinalson family?
Unfortunately, for decades, there was only one Gilbert.
In the end, only one Russell came.
If luck hadn't hit the ground yet, the Heinalson family would really be waiting to be exterminated.
The fact that Ulrich's father died so early was actually related to this incident... Seeing that his brother was having such a hard time in the Magic Tower, the people in the family only thought about themselves and did not think about Gilbert's pain at all.
, that old gentleman is really exhausted mentally and physically.
The family actually regretted it later, but in the Tower of Black Mystery 10 years ago, even the apprentices with decent qualifications were taken over directly by the tower's mage, so it was no longer their turn to intervene.
And Gilbert is obviously estranged from the family because of those nonsense, and Ulrich doesn't know how to help the family pass on everything... The only advantage of this matter is that Russell and Carpenter have some qualifications.
The child literally grew up being held in the palm of his hand.

Russell looked outside with some hesitation and said softly: "We must listen to the teacher, but we must also seize the time.
The atmosphere in the Tower of Black Mystery has been very uncomfortable recently. It would be best if we could all become official mages as soon as possible."
"Is it because I don't want to?" Carpenter rolled his eyes, "Stop thinking about it, let's get through the endorsement first!"
