Chapter 30: Copernicus the Black Cat

Thomas left without waiting for a reply since he told Phil that night about the alliance, and Phil didn't actually give an exact answer, and the two of them lived their own lives, as before. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the castle, some newcomers came one after another, some were native to the Wizard Continent, and some came from remote places like Phil.

One morning, a man covered in blood appeared not far from the castle, and before anyone could pass by, there was a man in a black robe who came out of the ropeway in the mountains, and he stood in front of the dead man, and he did not know what he did, and a cloud of black smoke rose and disappeared in a few moments. Phil had heard all of this information from other people's discussions, and it was said that an entire team of newcomers had been wiped out, and even the wizard who was escorting had been killed.

As for the wizard who appeared in front of the dead, whether he was just investigating the cause of death and other information, or going for revenge, no one could tell. Each has its own reason, and it seems that the relationship between wizards is not as simple as killing and revenge.

Fortunately, only one rookie team had such a thing, and the other teams had lost four or five at most, which was already very high for a team like Phil to lose so much.

These days, Phil has heard a lot of news, it is not clear whether it is true or false, but he has not made any friends, others do not want to know him, and he does not want to cater to others, but there are many people like him. There are also people who make friends all over the world, call friends, and talk and laugh left and right, which seems to be quite a means.

Thomas, like Phil, spends the rest of his time in his room snuggling up to the room, not knowing what to do. It's just that sometimes when I see those who have made friends, my eyes are very disdainful.

After a few days, the newcomers probably arrived, and finally someone took them deep into the mountains. The Black Tall Tower Academy is finally about to be shown in front of Phil.

In the morning, the sky was slightly bright and misty.

Hundreds of newcomers who received the news last night packed their bags and waited in front of the castle.

A black shadow like a mountain approached them from the mist, and when they got closer, they realized that it was a man three meters tall, just like the legendary giants, no different from humans, but with a very tall body, it is said that their people are extremely powerful, and the most powerful of them may even lift a mountain.

Of course, this is just a legend, the Giants have disappeared for a long time, and there is only a little blood left on the continent, and mortals can even admire the glory of the Giants in some circuses, and now they have become funny clowns.

However, when Phil saw the three-meter-tall man in front of him, he knew that he was definitely not a circus clown.

The chip can't detect the other party's physical fitness, because the other party's body is abnormal. His body is full of muscles, unlike the circus clowns, it is definitely trained in daily life bit by bit, not drug-induced, the dense hair that the giant clan blood generally has does not show on his body at all, his body and head are very clean, and it can even be said that without that height and muscles, he is more like a little white face than Phil.

"Alright, newcomer, be quiet." The giant opened his mouth to silence the audience, and his voice was completely as light as a little white face, but Phil didn't dare to underestimate it, and many newlyweds with eyes bowed their heads slightly to show respect.

This is all because of the monstrous momentum exuded by this three-meter giant, I don't know what kind of strength you have to have, how many people you have to kill to exude that momentum. Phil only knew that if the other party wanted to kill these hundreds of newcomers, he would definitely not waste much effort.

"I'm Charles," the giant's voice matched his appearance, gentle and elegant, "I'm going to lead you into the Black Rope Tower Academy, and tell you what you need to know about living in the Black Rope Tower. I think you're ready, now please follow me and don't make a noise. ”

The Giant Charles turned and walked into the fog and headed for the ropeway behind the castle.

The group followed in pairs, with Phil walking in the middle and Thomas beside him.

After a while, they reached the top of the ropeway, which straddled the ends of the cliff, and walked up, with no bottom of the abyss at their feet, and on both sides was a white mist, even in front and behind, only a few figures could be seen, and farther away, they were all drowned in the fog.

The wind swept in, and the fog rolled up, making a dull whistling.

Phil wrapped his gray robe tightly so that he could better withstand the bitter cold of late autumn. This gray robe was uniformly distributed by someone last night, it is a uniform costume for new students, with crude magic patterns painted on it, which can provide a few small tricks for heating and cooling, and dusting, the tricks are not precious, but it is not something that a wizard apprentice who has just learned the witchcraft formation can do.

This type of gray robe is generally only worn on certain days, and the rest of the time is casual, of course, the new students enter the school on one of the specific days.

Thomas glanced at him, then looked at the gray-robed newcomers lined up in a row of long snakes, and said softly: "Don't underestimate this gray robe, outside, 10,000 gold coins are priceless, and I estimate that the most precious thing on most of these people is this gray robe, even if it is broken, they are reluctant to buy another one, at most, they will pay for the senior to sew it up." The contempt in his eyes was very strong.

Phil still didn't answer, listened to Charles's voice in the thick fog ahead, and walked forward.

Walking through the ropeway and turning the mountain road, the fog gradually dissipated, and in front of me was a blue ice lake, which was already frozen before it snowed.

Surrounded by the glacial lake, there is a group of black tower castles, which are scattered and faintly divided into areas, only a towering black tower stands behind the mountains, which looks mysterious and abnormal, and no mortal power can build such a tall building that does not see the top of the tower.

"That's where the dean is, the strongest of the Black Rope Tower Academy, and one of the great powerhouses in this area." As if he knew what Phil was looking at, Thomas said.

"Do you guess the Dean is a third-level wizard or a fourth-level wizard?" Thomas asked suddenly.

Phil turned to look at him: "Wizards are still ranked?" ”

Thomas scoffed: "Sure enough, you don't know anything, and sure enough, you will only be interested if you talk about it." But he didn't answer Phil's rhetorical question.

Seeing this, Phil did not ask, and these news would be known sooner or later in the future.

There is a bluestone road by the lake, which is overgrown with moss and covered with autumn frost, and there are many vines growing on the mountain wall next to it, and there are ice ridges hanging in some places.

Everyone walked on it, and the cold air rose from the soles of their feet, and even if there was a gray robe, it looked a little cold.

Phil has the strength of a formal knight, but he doesn't feel anything, and Thomas next to him muttered with some annoyance: "This ghost weather!" ”

Walking across a bridge on the bluestone road, there is a very historic city wall in front of you, and in the middle there is a gate made of unknown wood, which looks hard and heavy.

Charles led the crowd to stand in front of the door, as if waiting for someone.

Phil stood in the middle, waited for a while, and suddenly felt someone peeping behind him, and when he looked back, there was nothing unusual.

"What's wrong?" Thomas asked.

Phil shook his head, the feeling of peeping was still there, it didn't look like a human feeling, he stared at the ice lake behind him, always thinking that a monster would jump out of it at some point, but the chip didn't move.

A black shadow suddenly flashed over everyone's heads, and then a scream sounded, and a group of people scattered in panic, and a human skeleton appeared in the clearing at some point, some minced flesh was scattered around, and it also exuded the heat of the human body.

"So, that's Jerry?" Someone in the crowd said.

Jerry? Phil knew that this person was a very popular one in the previous castle, and he was well-informed, Phil looked left and right, and sure enough, there was no Jerry.

A person turned into a pile of white bones in an instant, and everyone was still in full view, and those who had experienced the attacks of wizards from other academies were a little uneasy.

"He's a shadow boy from another academy, so he doesn't need to worry about anything." Charles stood in front of them and looked at them. Then he said respectfully in the direction of the gate, "Thank you, Master Copernicus." ”

Everyone looked and found that a black cat appeared on a stone pillar next to the gate at some point, licking the minced meat on its paws.

Copernicus the black cat licked the minced flesh by himself, and without looking at them more, everyone blinked, and lost the figure of the black cat, not knowing how it left or how it came.

"That's Master Copernicus of the academy, if you see it in the future, you must remember not to offend, otherwise you will die ugly." Charles admonished.

The crowd was silent.

Phil remembered that Wizard Chris had told him something similar about wizards holding the truth about the world, which seemed wrong, and that a black cat possessed desperate powers.

"Master Copernicus? It turned out to be it. "Thomas seems to remember something," a pet that the Dean had saved in the Abyss has now become the guardian beast of the Academy, and it is said that the eyes of Master Copernicus are its strength. That's amazing, Phil, can you see how Master Copernicus killed that Jerry? ”

Phil didn't answer.

"Hmph, if you can't see clearly, you can't see clearly, and you don't dare to admit it," Thomas took the opportunity to sarcastically, "and no one among the newcomers can see the shadow of Master Copernicus." ”

Phil initially saw the shadow of the black cat, like a cloud of black smoke.

"All right, folks," said Charles, "you have passed the test of Lord Copernicus, and it is time for me to say that you are welcome to the Black Rope Tower." ”

When one person died, everyone became more relaxed, and they all admired the power that the academy had.

The door in front of them slowly opened, and everyone received a new life package in the small room next to the door according to Charles's instructions, and everyone's hearts seemed to be full of light, like the unfolding of a new world and a new life.

Standing in the middle of the gray-robed crowd, Phil glanced back at the frozen lake, turned and walked through the door.
