The rain is falling one after another, and the rain in the hills of Hillsbrad in October is no longer so warm, and the drops on people will already feel cold.

In the twilight of the drizzle, Orondo, dressed in black robes, returned to the Severosa collar with his mentor.

Not far away, the lights in the Severosa estate were still bright, as if beckoning.

A gust of wind and rain enveloped them into the living room, and outside the drawing-room, Dobby Butler had already told Orondo that his three friends had been waiting for him there for a long time.

When Orondo and Solanlian entered, Ansrem and Kel'thugad were playing chess at the table in the living room, and Neras got up from the couch with sleepy eyes, as if he had just been sleeping.

Neras Elan raised his eyelids impatiently, glanced at the people who had entered, and immediately radiant, bounced off the sofa, and shouted, "Man, we've been waiting for you for a long time!" Hey? It's getting dark outside, and that's almost a day! What are you going to do?! Oh, Greetings, Lord Solanlian. ”

"Hello." Solan Lian responded blandly.

"Alright, alright. Sit down first, it's raining outside and it's a little cold. Orondo was also a little happy to see his three friends.

When Ansrem and Kel'thugad saw him return, they also stopped playing chess and looked at each other.

"Ansrem, Kel'thugad, hello!" Orondo greeted them with a smile.

Kel'thugad just nodded, and Ansrem Ruinvivol smiled and said, "Hello, Orondo." Actually, Neras didn't wait here at all. He ran inside and out of Sephorosa's collar and came back to sleep until now. ”

Elan glanced at Ansrem and snorted unpleasantly, "Orondo. All three of us are here now. You can say it. Halfway through, I learned that you had asked Kel'thugad to bring us there. ”

Hearing Nanmage say this, Kel'thugad and Ansrem also looked at Orondo expectantly, not knowing what he was doing when he called the three of them over.

"Don't worry." Orondo brought in Solan Lianne, who had an indifferent expression in front of outsiders, and asked the mentor to sit down.

"When it rains, it's a little cold. How about let's have a hot hot drink and talk slowly? ”

"Yes." Neras agreed.

I saw Orondo stretch out his finger and write in the air, and then with a slight wave, he recited a spell in his mouth, and five cups of yellow drinks landed steadily on the long wooden table, and the steaming hot drink exuded an attractive fragrance.

Together with Solan Lian, the five of them sat down around the table, holding a hot drink, Neras Elam couldn't wait to take a sip, so hot that he jumped up from the chair at once, Ansrem smiled: "Neras, keep your tongue, how can you recite the spell without a tongue?" ”

"Hahaha." Orondo laughed, he had drunk this hot drink a long time ago, and knew that it should not be drunk too much at once, but he deliberately did not warn Neras.

"It's Butterbeer! I added a little magic sauce and cheese to the dwarven wheat beer. It has the effect of calming the nerves and condensing mana, and it has the taste of alcohol but does not have the effect of getting drunk, which is very suitable for mages to drink. ”

"The disadvantage is that it is very hot, so you have to drink it slowly."

Neras Elam, who had been scalded once, was cautious this time, grinning and slowly taking a sip, and then his eyes lit up, and he drank several sips in a row.

"Demon Emperor Grass! Beard grass! Not...... Sparkling flowers, and cheese and wheat beer? Isn't that the sparkling wine recipe you discussed with me last time? Neras Elan said with a wink.

"Yes. That's the idea. Orondo said with a smile.

Nellas Elam commented: "It tastes so good! ”

Listening to the interaction between the two, the other three mages also began to taste. In the end, even Kel'thugad gave a good evaluation.

It was getting dark outside, the light rain was still falling, and in the warm living room, drinking hot butterbeer, the atmosphere was good. Neras Elam spoke again, "The hot drink has been drunk. Okay, Orondo, what are you asking us to do here? ”

He took a sip of his butterbeer and said slowly, "And those apprentice mage apprentices, even those apprentice mage apprentices who have lost their qualification to study at Violet, what do you want to do with them here?" ”

Ansrem continued, "yes, I want to know too. Orondo, if you do this, Kenrito will definitely be dissatisfied. The apprentices of Violet Academy are almost gone. ”

"Oh, friends." Orondo took a slow sip of Butterbeer and asked, "What do you think of the quality of teaching at Violet Academy?" What is the education system like in Dalaran? ”

"Not good!" Neras Elan said very simply. "But it's not about me. They look down on me as a Southerner, and I don't bother to pay attention to them! ”

"Are you referring to the questions in the Violet Teachings paper?" After thinking for a moment, Ansrem asked softly.

Kel'thugad and Solanlian didn't speak.

"Yes. There are almost 300 to 500 apprentices in Violet Academy every year, and only 50 to 100 of them can become full-fledged mage apprentices. Of these formal apprentices, about six or seven percent of them eventually become full-fledged mages. Orondo said softly.

"The rest of these people will either go back to their hometown, or they will continue to stay in Dalaran and look for an opportunity to become mages."

"What do you think. These mage apprentices without mentors, are they really wood that they can't be cultivated because they can't be qualified? ”

At the mention of this question, even Neras Elam was quiet.

"Not really. I knew about Hérault Storm, and I felt that he had the same talent as me. But he wasn't as lucky as mine. Although I was born in the South, my family is still influential here. This kind of influence made it easy for me to have a mentor. Neras whispered.

Kel'thugad, who had not spoken, suddenly said softly and briskly, "Orondo, tell me what you want to do." ”

"I think." "You've all seen that paper," Orondo said. The mage did not propose a solution in his paper. It's not that he doesn't want to mention it, I think he just doesn't dare to bring it up. ”

He slowly stood up, paced around the living room, and continued, "Humans have been exposed to magic for three thousand years, and Dalaran has been around for two thousand years. But how many mages are there so far? I'm afraid there aren't even 20,000 people alive among Kenrito's registered mages, right? ”

Neras Elan stood up abruptly and said loudly, "What exactly do you want to do?" Orondo? ”

A thoughtful look appeared on the cold face of the young Kel'thugad, and he lowered his head in thought, when suddenly, a strange brilliance shone from his blue eyes, and he whispered, "You want to build an academy?!" ”

Well...... in the "original history", Kel'thugad also founded an academy, the famous psychic college.

Orondo didn't expect that under his own inducement, Kel'thugad also guessed his thoughts one step earlier than Neras and Ansrem.

"That's right!" Orondo is unequivocal. "Kenrito wasted too many good seedlings! So much so that many geniuses who could have become excellent mages have been reduced to magicians and wild mages! I want to build an academy to take them in, so that the splendor of the arcane can shine brighter on the land!! ”

Ansrem was stunned.

Solan Lian already knew, but her face was still expressionless.

Kel'thugad's calm eyes flickered.

"Wow! Wow!! Awesome!! ”

Neras Elan cried out loudly.

"It's better to go south and build it! The Stormwind Kingdom is willing to bear all the costs and is willing to give everything to help! ”

Hey!

He thought it was beautiful.
