Chapter 103: Mage Tower

Alan took Tia's hand and strolled through the largest garden in the royal city. The sun shone on the two of them, and it was extremely comfortable.

"Alan, why don't you say that our lives can't be like those lovely people outside the royal city, simple, without being constrained or accepting the arrangement of fate."

Tia broke free of Alan's hand, spread her arms, and walked cautiously along the edge of the lawn.

"No one is not bound by constraints, and no one is free from the arrangement of fate. It's just that they may be easier or simpler than you. But everyone has their own responsibilities and obligations, and they still need to take their part. The greater the responsibility, the heavier the burden, but, your life still belongs to you, live for yourself is the present, live for the future for great love, don't deliberately wait for that day to come, I will be by your side, with you to bear the present and the future. ”

Eren caught up with Tia and held her little hand on the side, looking at her tenderly and giving her a trademark smile.

"Hmmm! As long as I can be with you, I am not afraid of anything. ”

Under the sun, Tia looked back with a bright smile, and her golden hair fluttered behind her, Alan was a little stupid, and she was more determined in her heart to take Thea out to see the outside world, no matter who she was, at least this heart that loved her would never change.

In the Mage's Tower,

"Nina, aren't you happy? You haven't spoken since you came back. ”

Hylis was lying on the bed, her face flushed, and it looked like she had been harmed.

"It's okay, Sister Cialis, Nina just feels a little tired, just get some sleep."

"By the way, Nina, just now, Her Highness Helena summoned us, and I went there instead of you, Your Highness said, the source of the spell of the Mage Tower seems to be a little muddy recently, and a large amount of wood rhinoceros grass (as a purification material) is needed. Now there is a shortage of manpower, and most of the mage apprentices in the Mage Tower are still preparing for the upcoming academic meeting of the Holy Law Ministry, and after that, there will be a spell exchange meeting with the outer kingdoms, so tomorrow the two of us will go to Atynia, the wood rhinoceros grass is easy to identify, but it will take several days to collect a large number of people, and we will go together to estimate that it can be completed quickly. ”

"yes, okay."

Nina replied listlessly,

"You're really strange today, if you usually knew that you could go outside the royal city, it was too late to be happy, you would have jumped and jumped a long time ago, what happened today?"

Cialis looked at Nina, whose eyes were a little glazed,

"Nina is very happy, it's just that Nina has grown up, so she won't do such childish things!"

As she spoke, Nina got into the bed, snapped her fingers, and the lights in the room went out instantly.

"Fool, if you don't say it, how can my sister help you"

Hylis was no longer reluctant, thinking that she would always tell herself when she wanted to say it. Chillis sat alone at the head of the bed, looking out the window at the courtyard of the Mage Tower in the dead of night, thinking of the scene when she first came here, nine years had passed in a blink of an eye

The Mage Tower is a tall tower located north of the royal city of Athenia. In Athenia, the magicians were a dominant group of beings. Excluding the high-level mages and regular legions (including knights and mercenaries) in the management, including mage apprentices, two-thirds of the people in the entire royal city are combat standers who can master general spell techniques. And this mage tower was specially built for mage apprentices. In the Mage Tower, battle maids like Cylis and Nina who are proficient in thunder and lightning spells and gun spells abound, but she is the best of the apprentices, her ability is above that of ordinary apprentices, and her Lingge is very high (simply defined as the spell flow system in the body), so she is very valued by the teacher. Therefore, they have long been selected to join the 'King's Maids' and serve as 'guides' and 'escorts' when they meet important guests. The rest of the apprentices who studied in the Mage Tower were placed in the Lower Law Department, the Middle Law Department, and the Upper Law Department.

Of course, this is based on the apprentice's Lingren qualifications and grades. Every two years, the Mage Tower will release recruitment information, and the high-ranking acolytes of the mages will fly to the mage camps in various major cities on the Aurelaste Road with recruitment scrolls to select talents.

Apprentices who are new to the Mage Tower can only study in the apprenticeship class, which is located on the bottom three floors of the Mage Tower. Within three months, apprentices who can master the basic elemental method of the mage and the high level of spiritual personality can be directly sent to the lower law department for learning.

Apprentices who fail to stand out need to continue to study in the apprentice class until they pass the ability test, and the period is half a year, if they still fail to pass the exam in half a year, they will be sent out of the mage tower, because this can only mean that the spirit is too low and is not the material of the mage, and the mage tower will not waste resources on a mage who has no future.

Successful apprentices will learn some of the most common basic spells and languages in the lower division. In fact, when many apprentices first enter the lower law department, they will have some questions about the course arrangement, especially about language learning courses.

The archmage of the Mage Tower, Etharox, attaches great importance to the language of magic, and the first weapon he gives to his students is 'language'. He would personally go down to the lower law department to teach various languages, half of his apprentices were learning elven language, some were orc and abyssal languages, and most of those apprentices chose dragon language to make it easier to study the magic texts.

On the title page of the spell textbook in the Mage Tower, there is a line that reads: There are no low-level spells in this world, only low-level mages. This sentence has guided many mage apprentices to face difficulties all the way and never let go of their incompetence.

The study in the lower law department lasts for two years, in which those who pass various exams within one year and have excellent results can directly participate in the biennial low-efficiency spell friendly tournament across levels, and the rest of the apprentices still need to study for another year. There is a key time difference here, if the apprentice in the current realm happens to be promoted to the lower law department in the year of the competition, and the results are not good enough, then he will have to wait for another two years or even longer to participate, so the competition in the lower law department is also quite fierce.

And Nina and Cyris, who are one of the most proud protégés of Archmage Aetharox, were directly promoted from the Lower Law Department to the Central Law Department by exception, and now although they have joined the 'King's Maid Group', they are still the two apprentices with better grades in the Central Law Department, and they can already travel alone to complete some of the tasks of the Mage Tower and serve the kingdom.

Of course, there are far more powerful mage apprentices in the Mage Tower, and some of them will join various groups like Nina and others in addition to studying, hiding in the royal city, using their knowledge and abilities to dedicate their own dripping power to King John and His Royal Highness Helena.
