After Adam gave the order, he turned around and walked towards his office, thanks to more than ten years of hard work and training, now he no longer needs to do the tedious experimental process himself, only needs to verify the accuracy of the experimental data, and then summarize it.

The assistants were skeptical, but Adam was always convinced of this path, the establishment of theories is in the same line, there is no reason why the previous research was established, but the most important thing is not true, he believes that now he just has not found the right way.

"Perhaps a completely scientific verification method is unscientific in this world. This was a guess that Adam came up with in ten years of failure, and he designed a second set of experimental protocols, from experiments that were completely separated from the ether to experiments that were brought into the experiment with the ether as a quantity, and because the pre-empirical evidence was already mature, I believe that the conclusion can be reached in a short time.

"Master, there is no need for you to be so strict with yourself, after you are promoted to a formal mage, you will become an immortal seed, and then as long as you don't die, you will have unlimited time to do research, and after the soul is sublimated, your wisdom will also improve, instead of being entangled now, it is better to be directly promoted. The devil appeared to Adam and said in an old-fashioned manner.

Adam didn't even look at it, sorting out the massive experimental reports by himself, and the devil was bored, pouting and walking out the door.

"Wait a minute. Adam stopped suddenly, "Take my identity token and allocate the next phase of funding to each lab, twice as much as before." ”

Now that Adam has become wealthy, he doesn't care about the loss of experiments at all, although the academy has a lot of funds allocated every month, but Adam no longer cares about it, and it is his own funds that maintain research.

"Waste of energy stones, you might as well give me ...... with these energies" The devil muttered out of the office, this time of the month is its most heart-wrenching day, the master wastes so much energy every month, it Uncle Garfield goes out to be happy but has to rely on the pit to be abducted.

Adam was reluctant to deal with it, and after more than ten years of getting along, the relationship between master and servant eased a lot, and Adam would give him a lot of 'living expenses' every month, but the devil always had the ability to spend them all in a few days.

After a while, the devil returned to his office, reluctantly handed Adam the token, and said, "Master, James, he is dying. ”

Adam looked up at it.

"I can feel that his life breath is constantly weakening, and his strong spiritual power has become a burden, and his body needs to divide a large part of the little activity to support the mental power, and if this continues, he will probably not survive for a year. The devil said with some melancholy.

Probably because it has lived around humans since birth, it is more sentimental than its kind, and it is hard to imagine that a devil would worry about the life or death of a human being.

Adam was silent for a moment, but didn't say anything more.

......

Three months flew by, and Monte Carlo's apprentices did not have any effect on Adam's life, except for the occasional conversation with his assistants, who were full of complaints about them, apparently slighted themselves or their companions, but no one bothered Adam for this, and they all knew that Adam hated such trifles.

James asked Adam for a leave of absence, his body was aging faster and faster, and the devil was expecting a year to be a little overwhelmed, so he walked out of the lab and bought a dose of mental power burning potion.

This was the last effort he could make, and if he still couldn't be promoted at the last moment of his life, he would choose to inject this potion and either sublimate in burning or die completely.

Unlike the situation when he was almost swept away more than ten years ago, he is actually very powerful now, the telekinetic power is perfectly circulating around him, the magic contained in the mage armor is extremely abundant, and every trace of escaping spiritual power will interact with the elements of the outside world, but all of them are blocked by him, this is because James has completely abandoned the path of the elements.

James had reached the pinnacle of his apprenticeship in the cultivation of the Mindfulness Meditation Method, and the Mindfulness Force had become a part of him, far more handy than manipulating the body.

"I really don't know what the point of this exchange is, the apprentices here are just a flock of sheep, naïve, cowardly, and ineffective. ”

The telekinesis became James's eyes and ears, allowing him to easily hear the faint sounds of conversation in the distance, and when he heard the rude words, he looked up ahead.

"Francis. James's eyes froze, and he recognized the apprentice who spoke, an old acquaintance of his, who had killed his apprentice team during the Tower War, and he was the only one who escaped.

Monte Carlo's apprentices walked down the road, and in front of Francis was a swirling whirlpool of air currents, rolling up all the apprentices who had no time to get out of the way and blowing them in all directions, they could fly, but they chose to walk, apparently to humiliate the apprentices of the Moldor Academy.

The apprentices of the Molde Academy dare not be angry, the rules of Moldor are not to sneak attack, and the battle can apply for a duel, Monte Carlo's apprentices began to strictly abide by the rules after being killed by the mage in the initial arrogance, but as long as someone initiates a duel against them, they will not hesitate to kill each other, and many people have died because of this for several months.

Francis was even more disdainful: "A bunch of cowards, it seems that after the original batch of waste is gone, there will be no glory for Moldo." Look at this bunch of waste, research, knowledge, it's ridiculous, you can't even protect yourself, what can you do with knowledge. Saying that, a strong wind rolled up in front of him, blowing away a large number of apprentices in front of him, this is not magic, it is just an application of the wind element, and it will not cause harm to the apprentices, so it will not attract the attention of the academy enforcers.

The wind came to James, he sighed silently, and the automatic defense of the telekinetic power suppressed the wind, he just thought about leaving directly, but thinking of the tragic situation of his companions at that time, he still chose to stay.

After running away all your life, do you want to continue to run away before you die?

"You can't be a coward for the rest of your life, can you, James?" he said to himself, mockingly.

Francis felt the wind dissipate, raised his head coldly and looked ahead, and was a little stunned for a while: "Such an old apprentice?" Most of the mage apprentices can stay young until the end of their lives, and this situation is indeed rare for James, which attracted Francis's attention.

"Who are you, looking familiar?" Francis asked, uncertainly, after a moment's reflection.
