Morin hears that Professor Ed is arguing with Professor Honorrom behind the closed door.

"I don't agree, that's too dangerous!" was Mr. Ed's voice.

"But that's the best way to go, and it's the only way to do it right now. "Teacher Honorom's voice.

"Although you are a very good ranger, and roam the Black Forest all year round, believe me, I know the horror of these things better than you do, and I don't agree with this! Absolutely not!" Eid was adamant, and there was no room for negotiation.

"I understand that," Professor Ranger's sincere voice said, "but I still hope you can trust me." ”

"Hey!" Ed laughed ridiculously, "Why should I trust you? We don't seem to have much to do with each other, do we?"

"Yes," Professor Ranger said in a calm voice, "I'm nearly eight decades younger than you, I haven't had the pleasure of meeting you before, and I only came to teach at Iluvita Academy two or five years ago, when you were injured. ”

"In that case, why should I trust you?" Ed's tone was light and disrespectful, and Merlin guessed that the teacher must have raised an eyebrow, perhaps still sitting at the table and talking to Professor Ranger with his legs crossed:

"Just because you saved me from the fog, I have to trust you, my trust is not so cheap. ”

"Because Captain Raymond trusts me. Honorom calmly replied:

"Captain Raymond trusts me, and I hope you trust me too. ”

"Oh, yes," Ed said with a laugh, and asked meaningfully, "Are you sure that stupid bear trusts you?"

"I hope you'll think about it. Honorom was silent for a moment: "Morin is here." ”

Squeak, the small wooden door was pushed open, and the boy saw Professor Ranger walking out and hurriedly said yes, probably because he couldn't reach an agreement with Professor Ed, his face looked a little solemn, and he nodded slightly in tribute to Merlin and left quickly.

It made the teenager's heart itch, and he didn't know what they were discussing before.

"What are you doing standing stupidly, come in!" came Ed's angry voice inside.

"Oh!" Morin hurriedly and respectfully stepped over the threshold and entered Ed's office.

"Teacher Ed, what were you arguing about just now......" Seeing that Teacher Ed's face was not very good, the curious Morin asked cautiously: "Honorom teaches others very well, counting this is the second time he saved me." ”

"Hmph!" Ed gave him a blank look: "It's nothing to do with you, don't get involved!"

"Stand up!" Ed waved his hand to move the boy to his side, put his hand around his shoulder, and asked very seriously, "How do you feel? Is there anything unusual? What sound do you hear?" Hallucinations?"

Merlin shook his head inexplicably, he really didn't feel anything unusual.

"Heh......" Ed breathed a sigh of relief: "It seems that your resistance to chaos erosion is indeed very good, and this time you are also lucky, you were careless and did not even change the seal, and almost caught you and Aeno not to mention, and almost caused a catastrophe." ”

Dare to love your old man's heart, it is not a big disaster to take me and Cohen in your heart, Mo Lin thought with a dark face.

Ed still saw the boy's thoughts at a glance as usual, but probably because he was guilty, he didn't let the boy hit the tree as usual, and said curtly: "Then it almost caused a bigger disaster." ”

"Teacher, how did your injuries remain?" Morin asked worriedly, "Is it worse than last year?"

"I can't explain it to you, it's just a bunch of small bugs, and the traces left by the chaos are difficult to remove," Ed waved his hand indifferently, and said ominously: "I know my injuries in my own heart, don't worry about it, it's better to prepare for the actual combat training of the Trial Tower if you have extra energy, I feel that your survival training this time may not be smooth sailing." ”

"What's ......?" asked Morin, puzzled.

Trial Tower Survival acts according to the group, and their group is not weak at all, how can it not go well?

You know, in addition to the dragon group led by Alice, their group can almost rank first in terms of combat effectiveness, not only the most powerful warrior in the entire grade, Baron, but also the experienced and calm Vis Demon Spirit Tilna, in addition, although Marcus does not have much combat experience, his mechanical ability is also excellent, enough but as a role of logistics support, although Emino does not have much combat experience, but his strength is great, and it is more than enough to protect himself.

As for Merlin himself, he has mastered several rings of magic that can be cast with classical spells, and this is enough.

"Your group is not weak, it is okay to survive on the first floor of the Trial Tower, but it may be a little troublesome with you," Ed said with a frown, holding his chin in his right hand and tapping his face rhythmically with a few fingers, "Do you remember that in the fog of chaos, I barely suppressed the wound and talked to you, but accidentally touched your blood?" ”

Maureen nodded, as if he understood something.

"It's a bit complicated to say, you can understand it this way," Ed said, "Although you are very resistant to the erosion of chaos, for some reason, the smell of your blood, or the aura you exude, has a strong attraction to chaos, and I think the same may be true for nightmare beasts." ”

"You mean...... Will the Nightmare Beasts be attracted to me to attack me?" Morin thought, it seemed that there was a real possibility, when he was in the fog, he had attracted many blue wolves to surround and attack, and it stands to reason that according to the birth density he observed, there would not be so many blue wolves in the same area at that point in time, and the only explanation could only be to gather to attack him.

And earlier, in the first session of Professor Honorom's course on the fundamentals of survival in the Trial Tower, when confronting the nightmare beast on the artificial path where he was, the guy seemed to be staring at him without taking his eyes off, and even ignored Professor Honorom not far away for a while.

"Maybe that's the case, I seem to be more attracted to Nightmare Beasts than other students of the same rank. ”

"So, you must be careful with this, don't be careless!. Ed's dark green eyes widened:

"When you are fighting, especially when you are fighting, try not to take advantage of the characteristics of the Nightmare Beasts that Professor Honorom taught in class, such as the fact that a low-level Nightmaremon will not cross a stream to attack a low-level professional, but if you stand in front of it, it may knock you down, or if it is chasing someone else and suddenly turns around and attacks you, it is possible. ”

"I'll take notice. Morin agreed, but for some reason, the boy felt that the focus of Teacher Ed's words was still that sentence, trying not to use the knowledge taught by Professor Honorome, and he didn't know how Professor Ranger provoked his not very good-tempered teacher, he couldn't help but ask again: "Teacher, what does Professor Honorom want—"

"It's okay to say it's none of your business, it's okay to ask repetitive questions and hit the pig!" Ed finally regained his nature, and impatiently sent the boy with too many problems to find a scalp pig and kill him.

"Oh yes, I'm going to fight this time, cough," Ed said in a secret way, and almost slipped his mouth: "I went out and picked up a lot of treasures this time, you can take this small pile of holy silver and keep it, and you will use it when you make mid-level cards." ”

"Holy Silver?!" Morin suspiciously took a small piece of silver glittering metal, only the size of a fingernail, but the weight was estimated to be not inferior to a standard steel sword of Lothar, he had also seen relevant records in the material books - Holy silver is a special kind of associated mineral silver, only occasionally found with rare gems, magic conductivity and ductility are extremely excellent, not only can be used to make magic cards, but also have a wide range of uses in magic machinery and even magic runes.

It is said that even gemstones with holy silver are often only a very thin layer of silver attached to the edge of the gem, which needs to be smelted by a special method.

"It's too expensive...... And I don't need ...... now," Morin said worriedly.

"If you take it, take it. Ed said with a big grin, giving this thing to the young man without a trace of distress on his face.

"Oh, okay, thank you, teacher, then I'll help you keep it first. Morin still felt very unsteady in his heart.

Professor Ed's here, except for magic runes and cards, aren't they all expired things like life essences that left him eyeshadow, why do you suddenly have this kind of material, and give it to yourself in a serious way.

If the boy knew that this thing was borrowed from the Qianshan Dragon Cliff, which was full of old dragons who were all over the old dragon, he would probably have to think about how to return it to the people on the spot, of course, if he knew that Mr. Ed had borrowed countless other more precious materials in his name, it was estimated that he would vomit blood and die on the spot, or strangle this unreliable teacher.

Putting away the holy silver, Merlin took out the newly made first-order card and asked Teacher Ed for advice, only to feel that a few of the more difficult problems in the previous melting carving were easily solved, and the harvest was great.

After that, he finally apologized to Ed cautiously, saying, "Professor, there's something...... I think, with you. ”

"What?" Ed glanced at him, "You don't think making cards is boring and you don't want to learn anymore?"

"No, no, no," the young man hurriedly shook his head: "You know, I've avoided backsurge damage now, but I may not be able to have this advantage in the future, so I don't know ...... in card making."

"Hmm, have you found the reason why you can avoid the backsurge damage?" Ed wondered, "Isn't it because you can't touch the Sea of Mana?"

He said earnestly: "Although touching the sea of magic can save you a lot of energy and gold coins, our card makers have gold coins, and you don't need to be high-level, as long as you can skillfully make mid-level magic cards in the future, you can already worry about the cost of money." ”

"But then I may not be able to advance to the advanced professional level...... "Merlin said in a low voice, if there was hope, he didn't want to give up the advantage of card making, and he didn't want to give up the little puddle of magic of the pit daddy, but the path of the fatalistic mage was interrupted......

Without further ado, he conjured up the inheritance book that Odalong had left him, and after hiding the parts that had been specially marked for others not to be seen, he handed the book to Ed.

"You should be able to understand after reading this book, it's actually all about my fatalistic mage profession. Maureen said.

He bowed slightly, then left Ed's office.

After all, it's too hard to get people to believe such an unbelievable thing by describing it, but there are many things about fatalistic mages in that book, including those Sombra cards, and how to use them to make card doors to connect with the nascent sea of magic and the elemental realm, which are by no means easy to fake.

Telling Professor Ed his secret, I felt a big rock in my heart, as for whether the book was made up by someone else, with Mr. Ed's knowledge, coupled with Professor Anna Goo's knowledge, it should be easy to see.

Hopefully......

You'll believe me......

……

……

In the early morning of the Saturday of the second week of the year of Shabai, all the second-grade students, led by their teacher, Honorome, lined up in four columns and left the school area in full armor.

Today is the first actual survival training of the [Trial Tower Survival Basics] course, and the second-year students will enter the Trial Tower according to the division of groups.

But the Tower of Trials is not in the valley of the Academy of Magic.

They followed in the footsteps of Professor Ranger through the arches of the library, and without stopping too long in the college's resplendent library halls, they entered a whirlpool corridor.

"Ha, it's finally convenient to go to the Holy King Capital from today. Maureen heard Marcus excited.

This passage was not like the whirlpool passage he had gone to the elemental boundary before, it was like a plane, and they walked for a while before they walked out of the twisted and imperceptible passage, many of them felt unwell, and there was even a girl who burned her hair out of control without paying attention to her magic, but she didn't have a chance to use the hair growth potion, so she could only pull up her cloak to cover her ugly bald head.

At the exit of the passage was another splendid hall, but unlike where they came, it was almost exclusively populated by adult professionals, as well as quite a few civilians. Mo Lin knew that in order to spread knowledge, the library of the royal capital and the library of the academy were merged into one, connected by special spatial passages, but only those with sufficient authority and rank could pass through.

Leaving the library, we went straight to the largest parliament square in the Holy Royal Capital.

"Over there is the Parliament Building, over there is the Inquisition, over there is the Hall of Fire," Honorom casually introduced, turning around and pointing to the other side, "As for the four major temples, they are all in that direction." ”

Because of the emblem of the Silver Tree of Illuvita on their robes and armor, their column of nearly 200 people was still quite conspicuous in the square, and the passers-by cast curious glances, and the students also looked at the environment curiously, many of whom had never been to the Holy Royal Capital.

"So where are we going...... ?" a classmate asked a question in a low voice to many people's minds.

"The White Tower. Honorom smiled mysteriously.

Of course, they didn't really enter the High Priest's White Tower, and under the leadership of Professor Ranger, they came to a heavily guarded underground entrance near the White Tower, and a bottomless staircase stretched down at a forty-five degree angle.

It's like a stairway to the netherworld.

"Shall we go down here...... one student shuddered.

Before Professor Ranger could speak this time, one of the guards next to him answered the student's question first: "Yes!"

"This is the stairway to the Tower of Trials, you came early, you don't need to queue yet. ”

Merlin saw that many adventurers walked to the entrance after being inspected, and ran all the way down the passage, also fully armed like them, carrying all kinds of weapons and supplies, and acting in the mode of a squad.

After Professor Ranger had crossed access with one of the guards, he beckoned to the student column behind him.

"Run at a constant pace!" Honorom gestured.

Led them into the entrance, heading out into the endless underground.
