A school of wisdom and knowledge wrapped in a storm of energy.
Early morning, gray sky.
A group of young men and women uniformly wearing plain black work robes, a plain pointed hat on their heads, and black cloaks with silver buttons on their bodies, holding a thick sheepskin magic book in their hands or under their arms.
, walked out of the dormitory of the college, either in a hurry, or leisurely, or awkwardly walking towards the towers in different directions.
As the crowd moved around, golden light emitted.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out that everyone had a golden nameplate on their clothes.
There are alphabetical characters written on the nameplate. These characters are like insects, squirming on the nameplate, changing their shapes from time to time.
The alphabetical text on the nameplate is the mainstream text in Black Area 11, and it contains the name of the owner of the clothes and his class.
As the magical voice of "Ring, ring, ring..." sounded, this group of young men and women wearing uniforms and exuding uneven magic waves quickened their pace and rushed towards different towers quickly.
Passwords sounded one after another, and with the reply of "the password is correct" from the guardian spirit of the tower, which was either deep or cold, the door of the tower opened automatically at any time, and the corresponding men and women hurried in.
The magic power fluctuated obscurely, like an endless abyss. Su Gang stayed up late to finish the experiment, and happened to fly lightly in mid-air. Looking at the scene in front of him, his eyes couldn't help but reveal a look of reminiscence.
Ten years have passed before I knew it.
Time flies so fast, and the changes it brings are also huge.
It has to be said that the changes in these ten years are greater than those in the past hundred years.
The tower of wisdom and knowledge-seeking with outdated concepts has disappeared, and has been replaced by a new school of wisdom and knowledge-seeking.
There are no more wizard towers on the inner hills, replaced by various witchcraft departments.
Instead of the self-taught, systematic and confusing witchcraft knowledge that is difficult to distinguish between true and false, there is a unified witchcraft textbook that has been carefully verified.
Unified teaching materials and unified standards for wizards.
The hierarchical consciousness among colleges is not stronger than before.
The dean and other senior management of the college, headed by William, also paid great attention to the independent initiative of college personnel. They not only established various "scholarships" but also strongly encouraged various creative witchcraft research.
Various measures that were unimaginable to the original old wizards continued to be implemented. After several years of accumulation and precipitation, it finally ushered in an explosive period.
"Dean William, our School of Wisdom and Knowledge currently has 1,038 first-year students - third-level wizard apprentices, including 432 repeating students, and 355 students from major wizard families.
There are twenty-one freshmen who have signed up independently, and there are two hundred and thirty students who have graduated from lower-level schools set up by the college."
"Second-year students - 604 first-level wizards, including 335 first-level gas wizards, 124 first-level liquefied wizards, and 145 first-level crystal wizards
, among the one hundred and forty-five crystallized wizards, forty-three have reached the limit of mental power. Thirteen of them clearly stated that they will take the year-end promotion exam, and nineteen said that they were not prepared enough and postponed it.
They will take the year-end promotion exam in due course. The remaining 11 people said they will not take the year-end promotion exam. Currently, the academic affairs office of the college, the work arrangement team, is communicating with these 11 people to see if they choose to stay in school.
Join the research institutes of major professors to help, or go to the sub-schools established by the college in various major regions to teach and educate witchcraft, or join the college's inspection team, or resource collection team, etc. At that time, the academic affairs
The work arrangement team of the department will sign a contract with them... and sign a work contract."
"Third-year students - forty-eight second-level wizards, 31 of whom are second-level gasification wizards, eleven are second-level liquefaction wizards, and seven are second-level crystallization wizards."
"As for the great wizards of level two or above, there has been no change. There have always been five people."
"in addition……."
When William woke up from his long "retreat", Forrest, the deputy dean of the Academy of Wisdom and Knowledge and a third-level wizard, came to the dean's office immediately to report to William the development during this period.
Finally, he said something triumphantly.
"The current strength of the Academy of Wisdom and Knowledge is already far more than ten times that of the Bone Forest. Every year, wizard families under the control of the Corpse Forest surrender to us directly, or contact us secretly. With our current strength, I think
Disappearing the forest of bones is easier than holding your hand."
William, who has been settling down for ten years, has reached a height of 2.5 meters. Sitting on a special tall chair, his shadow alone can cover the thin Forrester.
The strength of the Academy of Wisdom and Knowledge has soared so suddenly. The main reason is that the open education method has attracted many talents from originally neutral wizard families or small and medium-sized wizard organizations. But judging from the current situation, unless the corpse forest is eaten,
Otherwise, it has reached a limit.
As for the five additional great wizards, they are not outside great wizards joining the Academy of Wisdom and Knowledge.
It was the senior members of the original tower of wisdom and knowledge who, after offering their loyalty to William and becoming the heads of departments in the new college or professors of a certain specialty, received gifts from William (god flesh and blood candles) as well as
Initially, a total of ten people received gifts and blessings from William, but in the end, only three of them successfully advanced to the realm of great wizards.
Counting William and Forrest, there are five great wizards in the Academy of Wisdom and Knowledge.
As for the Bone Forest, there are still only two great wizards (actually there is only one great wizard, the Soul-sucking Witch, and the other flesh-and-blood puppet master has been killed by William, but the Soul-sucking Witch has always claimed that there are two great wizards in the Bone Forest.)
If this were not done, the Corpse Grove would not need to be supported by the soul-sucking witch, because under the pressure of the Academy of Wisdom and Knowledge, the hostile force of the Corpse Grove would automatically disintegrate.
No wizard is willing to fight an enemy that is impossible to defeat, and no wizard is that stupid.
The Corpse Grove has been completely shrinking its forces, including the forces dispatched around the Abyss of Despair, which have also been recalled, in order to avoid conflicts with the Academy of Wisdom and Knowledge.
In the College of Wisdom and Knowledge, the focus of the past ten years has been on another important task, so it has not expanded or caused a new power war.
The person who issued this important task was naturally the first dean of the Academy of Wisdom and Knowledge - William Odyssey!
William is not very interested in the rapid growth of the School of Wisdom and Knowledge. What he cares about is——
"Frant, to what extent has the research on reconstructing the innate witchcraft crystal of the sea of consciousness progressed?"
William's pale golden eyes looked at Franster quietly, which immediately gave Franster a creepy feeling.
Although both of them are great wizards, William, the great wizard, is much more powerful than him.
Every time he sees William's silent expression - especially in recent years - Forster's inner stress level rises to the limit.
"Sir William..." Forrest would call William by mistake when he was nervous. He should have called him Dean, but at this time, no one would care about it.
"This experiment was led by Professor Su, so you have to ask Professor Su for the specific situation." Forrest said slowly regaining his composure.
"Then ask him to come over for a meeting." William said.
"I've asked him to come over. He should be on the way now." Franster said quickly, but before he finished speaking, the "door spirit" voice on the office door rang - "Master, Professor Su is requesting
Come in."
"Let him come in." William, who was the master of the dean's office, agreed to Su's request.
The ordinary-looking door opened automatically, and the gentle-looking Su strode in.
"Dean William, Vice President Forrester, good day."
"Good day, Professor Su." Forrest greeted this young man in return.
In the past, he could look down on him from a high point of view, but now he couldn't.
Whether it's strength or anything else.
Su was the first person to be promoted to Grand Wizard after the Tower of Wisdom and Knowledge was transformed into an academy.
To a certain extent, both of them are on equal footing.
"Professor Su, how is the experiment on recasting the gifted wizard crystal of the sea of consciousness going?" Forrest asked.
He knew that this was what William was most concerned about.
This can be seen from the support this matter has received throughout the Academy of Wisdom and Knowledge.
In the entire academy, except for William and him, the remaining three great wizards have established a research institute whose first task is to solve this matter.
All the resources of the college are tilted toward these three institutes. They need people to give people, magic stones to magic stones, resources to resources, and policies to policies.
Forrest, Su and others all knew how much William valued this matter.
William, who was born as a wild wizard, must have made a mistake in choosing his talent for witchcraft.
This will prevent him from taking another step forward.
This should be something that William cannot accept.
Although he is so young and so powerful, is being a level three wizard his end?
Unlike Forrest and Su, although their strength is vastly different from William's, they are born in the orthodox wizarding school and have greater possibilities in the future.
In the Academy of Wisdom and Knowledge, among the three great wizards who have been promoted in the past ten years, only Enlaim from the Tower of Green Spider has the same problem as William.
Therefore, the research institute under the auspices of Enleim of the Green Spider Tower is the most attentive to the task assigned by William.
Because it is closely related to him.

William looked at Su.
Su looked up at William's stalwart body with a calm expression.
"I'm sorry, Dean William, the new research experiment failed." Su's tone was calm, but there was still a trace of regret in his eyes.
"The eight official wizards of the Corpse Forest who were the subjects of the experiment used potions to wash away their innate witchcraft. The energy aftermath directly tore the entire sea of consciousness apart. Three of the witchcraft were directly shot in the head, and the sea of consciousness of four wizards fell into a permanent state.
In the chaos, although he is still alive, it is no different from dead."
"There is one wizard left. He is not dead, nor has he become an idiot. He is just permanently damaged in his consciousness and cannot recover at all. Once he uses his mental power, he will have a splitting headache."
"In the past few years, we have used many methods and launched a lot of wizard research, but we have never been able to solve the problem of the energy aftermath caused by erasing the innate wizardry crystals."
"The sea of consciousness is too fragile and too important."
"Sorry, Dean William. We still need time." Su finally said.
Forrest jumped out and said, "Professor Su, you said this the year before last, and you still said the same the year before last."
"Do you know how much resources the entire college spends on your research institutes? How much time do you need?"
This is Forrester's specialty in playing tricks.
"Dean Franster, we cannot predict this kind of thing, and you know it." Su pursed her lips and said.
"Then you must come up with something." Forrest said again.
A wry smile appeared on Su's lips, and she was about to say something.
William, who had been silent, waved his hand to stop him. His eyes were calm, and he seemed to have made a certain decision, "From now on, you can continue to study the topic of how to recast the gifted witchcraft crystal, but it will no longer be listed as the first priority.
It’s the mission.”
Upon hearing what William said, both Forrest and Su looked at William in surprise.
"It seems that I was wrong. I thought that through the collective efforts of the people, we can solve this problem as one."
"The reason why the problem is a problem is that it is not that simple. I am too impatient."
"Perhaps in the distant future, there will be teachers or students in the School of Wisdom and Knowledge who can solve this problem, but not now."
William said with regret.
If William still wants to "progress", then there are only two ways in front of William.
A path passes through the abyss of despair in the Black Zone 11 and enters other areas in the hope that there will be a solution.
But this method is completely luck-based.
William once wanted to use the "Blessing of Destiny" to bless himself to find a way to "recast the gifted witchcraft crystal" in other areas of the Black Realm, but a feeling in the dark told William that he couldn't do it.
As for whether William can't do it, or whether wizard civilizations in other regions can't do it, William doesn't know.
Leaving Black Area 11 is inevitable.
The fruits of wizard civilization produced in Area 11 of the Black Domain can no longer provide William with enough nutrients to support him in continuing his journey.
So William must leave.
But before going on an unknown journey, William wanted to better improve his strength before going there.
After all, the road ahead is bleak, so no matter how prepared you are, you should be prepared.
If this is the case, then William has only one way to go.
According to the obsession of Barbara Destiny Witch, enter the fairy tale world and find the holy relic of the Holy Light that can cleanse the spirit.
This is also a task of finding a needle in a haystack.
