Chapter 491 The death list has been decided long ago
Of course, Aislin didn't know how entangled her teacher and senior brother were.
Although even her fellow juniors who had a bad relationship with her felt something was wrong, she herself was completely unaware of it.
After all, in her opinion, everything she does now comes from her sincerity.
Aislin really felt that those guys following at the end were a bit annoying: a group of outer-ring mages who didn't respect her and her teacher at all, who had the right to delay their journey?
She completely forgot that the reason why these people followed them was Root's hope.
Do they really want to go to the Tower of Sea?
The eagerness to set off does not mean that they have to march hastily along the way...On the contrary, the slower the better.
It's just that Root, as the apparent first tower owner of the Tower of Black Mystery, must shoulder the responsibility of opening the way, and they are the first batch.
However, Aislin, who should obviously know and agree with this point...these people were also sorted according to her original setting...but at this time, she felt that they were a drag rather than a help.
Her change of attitude, which was so natural that she was unaware of it, actually scared many of her junior brothers and sisters.
However, after both Root and Oliva remained silent, others naturally became silent as well.
Naturally, Hill also discovered the somewhat strange atmosphere in the team.
Moreover, he did not ignore Aislin's vicious eyes as she looked behind her.
He couldn't help but frown, and turned to look at Russell: "Bring me the list of outer ring mages we are following here."
Russell opened the drawer of the low cabinet next to his single sofa, pulled out a folder, and sent it to Hill: "Here it is, teacher."
"Ah...it's true." Hill flipped through it a few times and found something was wrong.
The outer circle mages who followed were all rich, even richer than West, who managed the apprentices.
Although there are indeed skilled types among outer-ring mages, it is simply impossible to make a fortune relying on popular spells or techniques that everyone knows.
Even in other worlds, if you want to transcend the constraints of spell level and find another way around, it is a miracle.
Not to mention in a world that already lacks resources.
Therefore, it is not too difficult for a mage like that to support himself or even a large family. However, if he wants to be like the mages in their fleet, he can also support a bunch of apprentices, a few lovers, and a bunch of descendants.
Sun, it's simply impossible.
In any magic tower, there will be people like this who take advantage of the sidelines.
No matter how powerful the controller is, he cannot completely clean away the gravel in the shadow. As long as it is a place where humans gather, small circles will naturally form.
Even if they cannot appear in the sun, they live well in the shadows.
The Archmage will indeed prevent some dirty things on the surface, but what about privately... they don't have the time to care.
Especially in the Magic Tower, many of the people who are being exploited are actually voluntary... In order to join the circle that they see as more promising, they are willing to sacrifice their present.
For most mages, stupidity is the most irredeemable mistake.
They originally believed in the Black Mystery Tower who wanted to sweep away the snow in front of everyone, and they would not care about the life and death of the guy who in their eyes was looking for death.
Hill carefully looked through the list again and compared it with Gilbert's memory: Although Root never paid much attention to the students' private social circles, he still kept records of the Magic Tower, and he might have done something "inappropriate"
Common sense tells his students the name of the Outer Circle mage.
The main purpose is to prevent any student from being taken advantage of because of ignorance... If he knew and was still willing to accept money to do things, then Root wouldn't care.
They are all official mages anyway, and what kind of future they want to choose is their own business. Lute has no interest in protecting other people's lives.
It's just that if you choose the wrong path, Root will give up on you.
Even though he was always very kind to Gilbert, it was also because Gilbert might have been unlucky, but he didn't choose to miss it.
As for the Root students who can still sit in this row of aircraft, they may have made minor mistakes on their way to becoming mages, but they have almost never made major mistakes... After so many years, those who made mistakes will of course have disappeared long ago.
Without a trace.
Hill closed the folder and threw it back on the coffee table.
"Teacher, what's wrong?" Russell picked up the folder and flipped through it. "Didn't you say you don't need to worry about these guys following you?"
"I'm overthinking it." Hill shook his head. "I should have thought of it earlier. Even if those capable and relatively sober mages want to follow us, they can't clean up that pile of chores so quickly."
"After all, it was at short notice!" Russell knew better, "There was so much chaos in the Magic Tower some time ago, and those who didn't want to participate chose to retreat.
How could it be too late to reorganize it after we know the news?"
"Well, that group of people at the back..." Carpenter asked curiously, "Aren't there quite a few?"
"Only those mages who are ready to move at any time can be among the first batch." Russell replied softly, "And they must have enough aircraft."
Carpenter blinked and suddenly said: "Then, either he has a lot of money and it's abnormal.
Or, just like Rolando, all the money is sold out and only the aircraft and his own are left?"
Of course, there are also so-called soul potions.
Russell turned over it carefully before nodding to Carpenter.
"Well..." Carpenter glanced at Gilbert, who was looking out the window casually, and lowered his voice in a very low voice, "So, something bad for that group of people is about to happen, but there is no need to care?"
"Probably?" Russell curled his lips, "Anyway, it's something we don't need to worry about."
------------------
"Teacher, why should I save those people?" On the large aircraft in the middle of the team, Oliva couldn't help but asked, "Do they have that value?"
"Are you confused by recent events?" Root couldn't help but cast a sidelong glance at his student, "Is it possible that people still think it was me?
Why should I bear this debt for Aisling?
No matter who the people who were tricked and killed are, they all bear the name of the Tower of Black Mystery, and they believe in my power, Root!
They can die, or even be killed by me, but not in this way!"
Oliva was a little confused: "But, haven't you confirmed the list of these people and are you sure you can send them to death?"
Root sighed deeply... Oliva's old habit happened again.
This guy, it's not that he can't think of it, but he just doesn't want to use his brain.
Therefore, in the past, Root would leave this kind of matter to Aislin... Although that girl was a bit extreme, she was at least willing to think about it and figure out what kind of result Root wanted.
Unlike Oliva, you must explain everything clearly to him, otherwise, this guy will definitely get into trouble.
For example, Aislin would never ask about something like this.
Root couldn't help but slapped the table: "I brought them with me because I don't want innocent people to die in a sneak attack.
But that doesn't mean I can watch them being killed without any reaction!
