As soon as Xia Duo passed between the two people, he felt the corner of his clothes being pulled by someone. When he turned around, he saw that it was Sami who was looking for him before. "Sammy, let's not talk about it for now. I want to go over there now."
.”
"Xia Duo, I have something to ask you."
"Joint operations later?"
"Well." Seeing Sha Duo's anxious look, Sami said quickly, "And Devine, we all want to join forces with you."
"I agree. Let's contact you again when we get to the military camp. I have something urgent now."
After saying that, Xia Duo squeezed towards Dean again.
…
"Dean! Dean!"
Xia Duo shouted in a low voice. In the hall, the apprentices were all communicating with each other and discussing. Xia Duo's behavior did not attract anyone's attention, and Dean happened to hear Xia Duo's voice.
He quickly left the few ordinary apprentices around him and moved closer to Xia Duo. At the same time, he lowered his voice and said, "Xia Duo, I have found a few pretty good apprentices who will join us when the time comes."
"Why don't you unite everyone?!" There was obviously some dissatisfaction in Xia Duo's voice. The more people the better, the more people the better.
At least Xia Duo didn't want to find too many ordinary apprentices who couldn't use [Messaging Technique]. Then he would become a nanny!
Dean was stunned by Xia Duo's words at first, and then nodded in agreement, "This is a good idea, why didn't I think of it?"
Now Xia Duo was completely speechless. Looking at the person in front of him, he was a little dazed. Dean was only seventeen or eighteen years old now, and could only be considered a minor on earth.
For a long time, Xia Duo has been accustomed to treating the people around him as adults in the Mage Tower, but in fact, most of the apprentices are only seventeen or eighteen years old.
Even though Nese's environment is different from Earth's, mental growth still takes a certain amount of time.
"Dean, listen to me, we are going to clean up the orcs in the forest. It is safer when there are more people, but have you ever thought about whether orcs can be found if people get together together?"
"This - it should work!" Dean said uncertainly.
"Then do you think it's easier to find people scattered or gathered together?"
Dean said firmly, "Of course it's easier to spread out."
"That's right. We have to disperse after all, so what's the point of organizing so many small teams to unite? Only a small number of teams can unite to support each other."
Dean was a little silent after hearing this. He was not stupid enough to enter the mage tower. He was just too afraid of the orcs and instinctively wanted to pull more people together.
How is this possible actually!
In fact, there is one thing that Xia Duo didn't say, that is, the attitude from above is that apprentices are no longer needed to participate in frontal battles, so how can they tolerate so many people getting together and paddling when clearing away scattered orcs?
Otherwise, how effective can such cleaning be?
After agreeing on a time and place to meet at the military camp, Xia Duo asked Dean to quickly get rid of the extra people and only needed to pick two reliable apprentices.
In this way, each of Xiaduo, Sammy, and Devine can take one with him, so that they won't be in a hurry whether they are pulling a net for arrest or providing nearby support.
Xia Duo has never had the idea of uniting more people. He knows how much he weighs and does not seek to make more contributions, but only seeks a smooth transition.
…
After wasting a little time in Dean's place, there were more and more people in the hall, and it was crowded. Xia Duo roughly counted, there were about two hundred people.
Most of them are ordinary apprentices, and there are only a few dozen formal apprentices.
And the few blond apprentices Xia Duo saw in the crowd were not Junior Neil. There should be more apprentices in the Mage Tower, but he didn't know what arrangements those people had.
Soon all the apprentices were informed by the tower spirit that they were all in place. The official mage standing at the door seemed to have been prompted, and then he cast [Phantom Sound Technique], spreading his voice throughout the hall——
"Disciples, the purpose of the gathering is clear to everyone - the orcs are coming. The tide of orcs once every ten years makes everyone in Savile Territory miserable. But do you know that if it weren't for the great arcanist Iole ninety years ago?
Your Excellency Mu organized a territory-wide beast-slaying battlefield and eliminated a large number of orcs, so now the time of the orc tide will be once every five years, or even shorter."
As the apprentices listened to the mage's narration, their thoughts seemed to return to the vigorous beast-slaying war ninety years ago, and they wished they could go back in person and join in it.
Xia Duo seemed to have the same idea, but he quickly realized something was wrong, and quickly lowered his head slightly, with a clear look in his eyes, and secretly said, "What a danger!"
Fortunately, I am not aboriginal, otherwise I would probably be too passionate.
However, this kind of spell should not be a malicious spell. Otherwise, with so many apprentices, especially formal apprentices, it is difficult to guarantee that some of them will harbor resentment in the future, leaving hidden dangers.
This reminded Xia Duo that Mu Yan once performed a Karatu-style song. Almost all the onlookers were attracted by the illusion created by the song, as if they were seeing the scenery of Karatu.
And most of these people are determined adventurers who live a life of licking blood on the edge of a knife.
No one made any trouble that time, only those who made noises and asked Mu Yan to perform another one.
Thinking of this, Xia Duo felt a little more relaxed.
Raising his head slightly, he glanced at the male mage with one-foot-long hair from the corner of his eyes, and finally his eyes fell on a necklace pendant on his chest. A blue-white star seemed to be shining brightly.
Looking carefully at this strange blue and white star pendant, Xia Duo felt that it looked familiar. After thinking about it carefully, it seemed that similar ornaments had been found on some apprentices.
Careful observation at this time can even make people feel a kind of inner peace, and it seems that there are countless inspirations surging in the heart, but it is always as if there is a layer of frosted glass between them.
It's hard to see what's going on.
This feeling is really addictive. Fortunately, Xia Duo knows that there is no such thing as a free lunch, and the price of everything has been secretly marked long ago.
Xia Duo resisted the desire to explore and moved his gaze elsewhere. Fortunately, he had roughly determined that the current craze in the hall was not due to some evil mind-controlling spell.
Otherwise, if he stays in an evil mage tower, even if he is not affected for a while, he will not be able to escape other bad luck later.
At this time, the official mage is still continuing——
"Now the orcs are attacking again, and the territory needs your strength. This time is different from the past. A great mage from the Arcane Federation personally came to the Savile Territory for support. This time we will definitely inflict heavy damage on the orcs! In the future,
There will no longer be a once-in-a-decade wave of orcs in the Saville Territory!
"You will work with the territorial soldiers to clean up and kill the main force, and defeat the few remaining orcs! May the light of the goddess protect you, and the arcane law be with us!"
"Arcana is with us!" The apprentices in the hall shouted in unison.
Xia Duo also howled at the top of his lungs. There was no need to fight the orcs head-on. This was considered an official stone hammer. Xia Duo was very happy because this would greatly increase his chance of survival.
