Carpenter lowered his head and slowly chewed on the profound meaning of the teacher's words.
Of course she also knew that during the period when the Magic Tower was first built, Teacher Gilbert could not protect her privacy from prying eyes, so when she spoke, she always talked about the most superficial layer, and the rest.
It's up to them to think about it themselves.
If you don't understand things now, you can ask them when one day the teacher suddenly starts to talk about some information that should not be known to outsiders... But Carpenter has never been the kind of person who just waits for others to answer his questions.
Even if you guess wrong, you have to think for yourself.
This is the most important experience she has learned after being with Gilbert for so long... Of course, she can be so confident because Gilbert has indeed given them the capital to be confident.
Gilbert would point out where they were thinking wrong, but he would never accuse them, let alone scold them. He would even praise some of their divergent thoughts... Even if he would explain why the angle of their divergence was wrong, he would never say "crazy thoughts"
Words like 'What's the matter' and 'Just follow the rules' will make them afraid to act freely next time.
Therefore, although Carpenter and Russell made many mistakes, their growth is also visible to the naked eye.
Independent thinking is the sign of a person's maturity, not how much housework he can do or how perfect his homework can be... This is the teaching Hill has received since he was a child, and he has also brought this education method to his students.
them.
In fact, in the past, Alice, Aglaia, and a little bit of the little golden dragon Terry were actually taught this way by Hill.
However, these three have their own inheritance. Hill can only choose to lead by example and understand by heart. He cannot completely instill his ideas into them like he taught Carpenter and Russell.
It was also during this period that Hill really understood why Fran and Adrian valued their students so much... watching the latecomers walk step by step through the path they came from, and inch by inch in their own way.
Gradually taking shape after careful carving will really give people a strange sense of accomplishment.
Of course, these have to be two children, indeed Meiyu's embryos.
Although Hill did not teach them his true heritage, he put in a lot of effort, at least much more carefully than the mages in this world taught their students.
After all, in this world, Hill really can't do anything... The previous world was so closed, and he also received messages from distant time and space, and spent a lot of time on alchemical production.
But here, Hill really doesn't dare to do anything. He will leave the work of trading with other Mage Towers to Russell. A very important reason is that he really doesn't want to choose to trade with others.
.
Even if his luck in this world is not that good, if he appears once or twice, he will probably shine in the Tower of Sea.
Of course, Hill has also thought about how to make his magic tower safer and more concealed... But that requires not only resources, but also a lot of time.
At Gilbert's level, it would take at least ten years to carve all the walls inside and outside with carefully designed magic circles.
He could only take his time.
Although Hill would never stop doing something just because it might not be needed, but... he would not change his planned goals just because of a little anxiety.
This has nothing to do with whether he will be exposed.
Rather, he learned very early not to speed up the work he is responsible for when he feels that he has enough energy to spare.
Once the schedule is set, it cannot be changed.
When you change this schedule based on your own whim, even what seems like a good thing will turn out to be a disaster in the end.
If you can change it for the better, you can change it for the worse.
As for people... once they are no longer constrained by rules, it is always easier to become bad than to become good.
Inertia is always hundreds of times stronger than positivity. You are unaware of it when it comes, and only the sound of a pot being smashed will make you suddenly realize it.
The lesson is profound and will be engraved in my heart forever.
Therefore, Hill, who had determined that he would at least accept Russell as a named disciple, basically spent the rest of his time teaching them after completing his daily scheduled work.
Then he realized deeply why Fran liked Adrian so much.
Once you put someone into your realm, you will always become more and more pleasing to your eyes... Not to mention if he still imitates you and remembers you in his behavior and dealing with things!
So now Hill...if it weren't for Russell's special status, and if he hadn't made the decision long ago, he would probably have chosen to pack it up directly.
Still sighing a little regretfully, Hill watched Carpenter thoughtfully return to his own small space to think hard... At present, apart from the absolute safety of the three of them's bedroom, the rest is hope.
Your little study: the place where the center of the magic tower is hidden.
Then, although the defensive array in the reception hall is not that comprehensive, unless it is some very powerful nine-ring mage who is good at snooping, it is not so easy to sense the movement here.
Even when communicating with other people, Hill was more cautious in what he said, but he was not interested in it. Any guy could make him listen.
Therefore, Carpenter and Russell, except for meditation and some relatively private affairs, stayed in the small, somewhat hidden space behind the high platform when they were learning spells and alchemy.
In this way, you can always find the teacher who is writing and drawing on the high platform to ask questions... Every once in a while, Hilbert will find some inspiration when sculpting the defensive formation.
Although this was also part of his plan, this state of being completely bound to a certain low level and could only do the dojo in a snail shell actually gave him some interesting inspirations.
This is not the same thing as the restrictions imposed by class suppression in Oasis... Hill must consider where the upper limit of the person he is impersonating is.
There are many designs that look very good, but given Gilbert's ability, he cannot complete them... Even if the materials used are of a higher grade than those in Oasis.
When Hill was in Oaises, he used very fine craftsmanship and very profound knowledge that no one in this world could ever imagine.
Even if Gilbert comes from a good background, has a good mind, and is very quick in thinking, it still won't work.
Hill can only expand on what already exists, but cannot choose to open another path.
It was difficult at first, but Hill's talent and enthusiasm for tool alchemy always led him to think of more interesting and special methods.
However, after forcing himself to get back on track, he suddenly found some traces of the past... Wasn't it just that he found a line that looked exactly the same on the stupid architect's idiotic drawings, but actually replaced it with the construction of another building?
Picture!
Although because his later work was more important, designers can basically be considered pragmatic, but when he was studying, he studied with his teacher how those famous stupid drawings turned into reality, although they looked ugly.
But it’s still a workable solution.
Sure enough, the most important thing for human beings is to find their original intention... Once you find it, surprises will make you more energetic.
Hill has been having a lot of fun lately.
------------------
Although he did not get better results, Keyiner was still satisfied. At least his minimum goal was achieved.
Getting a passing grade from Gilbert is something that many people can't even imagine.
However, Keyin'er's happiness lasted short-lived... A big trouble appeared in front of him.
"Co... Yin'er, right?" Ms. Aisling fell from the sky and landed in front of him, "Why are you looking for Gilbert?"
Coyiner cautiously took a step back, looked around again, and after confirming that his location was already within the monitoring range of the Root Magic Tower, he calmly replied: "Gilbert and I are already familiar with each other.
"
"What joke are you talking about?" Aislin glanced at him disdainfully, "You?"
Coyiner pondered the woman's tone and confirmed that her disdain was indeed directed at him... She seemed to think that a genius like Gilbert would never pay attention to a waste like him.
Although the feeling of being looked down upon was uncomfortable, Coyiner had actually long been accustomed to Aislin's attitude of looking down on everyone... Of course, he was quite disdainful in the past, and Aislin's talent seemed to be too.
Not much better than him, it all depends on living longer and licking well.
But now, his attitude towards Aislin is definitely to keep a distance: he can let the Tower of Theia be placed next to Root blatantly, but their teacher still treats her as well as before... How many things are going on here?
I dare not even think about it.
Anyway, based on his understanding of Root, even if he endures the humiliation, he will never accept such obvious humiliation easily.
Therefore, facing Aislin's face that read both arrogance and disdain, Coyiner just smiled gently.
Aisling, on the other hand, was a little surprised: Coylin seemed not as afraid of her as he used to be.
Of course she would not do anything in public to Corinle, who had just been promoted by Root. Even if it was 'Aisling' who came out, she would not do such a thing that would make Root unable to step down.
But, if it were in the past, guys like Keyiner would definitely tell the truth without hesitation when facing her... as long as what she asked was not their own secret.
After all, as one of the controllers of the Root faction, telling her something is not really a betrayal... At least on the surface, she has the qualifications to manage the junior brothers and sisters below.
Aislin would rush to find Coyiner so aggressively. Naturally, it was not because of Gilbert, who had temporarily stopped fighting, but to show her authority to Coyiner.
Unexpectedly, it failed!
Sure enough, does the person the teacher likes have some merits?
