400, Trouble (1)
William became an official mage before Elliot Cristel and them.
After reaching the tipping point, he did not choose to go to the war trial, but was promoted directly to the mage and left the Moldor Tower.
Mage World, it's too big.
Step-by-step promotion according to the steps left by his predecessors, without his own research results, without special talents, he is lost in the world like a transparent person.
During the apprenticeship stage, he felt that the official mage was extremely powerful, but when he became a first-level mage himself, he found that he had no sense of existence in the mage world at all, and he could not find his place.
He thought about returning to Madeira in a hitch, and he had even been wandering around the port of Karachi for a month.
Until he saw the recruitment notice of the Duncan Consortium, he became the low-level head of a property in the port of Karachi of the consortium, receiving a fixed salary every week in exchange for meager resources to exchange for those expensive knowledge and difficult to improve himself.
Ambition was rapidly eroded in the face of the cruel reality, he thought that he could only spend his life like this, but he didn't expect that the turning point came.
"You know Adam, the new extradimensional mage directly under the Holy Tower, right?"
"Find him, contact him, show him our kindness, and if you can convince him, you will be given a huge amount of resources, and I promise to make you an extradimensional mage. ”
This is the eighth level of freedom extradimensional, Duncan gave him a guarantee.

"This place is called the Academy Continent, what do you think I want to do?"
Adam said in a strange tone, he didn't expect the liberal faction's temptation to be so direct, did they think that an inconsequential acquaintance could influence them?
"It's obvious thing, master, they don't take you seriously at all. They think you're just a puppet and a mouthpiece, and calling William is just to show their attitude, such as that whatever the council wants to do, it has to be approved by them, and they have to give them concessions. Garfield knew what he meant as soon as William opened his mouth.
After hearing Adam's answer, William took a deep breath and raised his head to look into Adam's eyes: "Adam, you know that what I want to know is not this. He desperately needed credit, and he felt that if he could ask Adam's true purpose, his position in the consortium would skyrocket.
Adam laughed, he couldn't understand why William's tone was so natural, he suddenly lost interest in continuing the conversation with William, summoned Garfield and pointed at William.
Garfield, who was ten centimeters old, sat cross-legged in the air with his hands on his chest and said to William: "Since you asked so, you should know that you can't understand this news, and you are not qualified to talk to my master like this, not even the people behind you." ”
William's expression froze, the temperature around him rose sharply, and the crimson flames suddenly ignited, he ignored Garfield and continued to say to Adam: "Adam, don't be stubborn, you don't know how powerful the forces behind me are, you won't have a good result if you disobey them, tell me, I can help you..."
Garfield interrupted him mercilessly: "Don't be arrogant, you and the people behind you are not as important as you think." ”
William's bare skin was bruised, and he clenched his fists and said loudly, "Adam, I'm your friend, I..."
Friend?
When did the word friend become so cheap, and it became clear that the person who wanted to take advantage of him deserved to claim to be my friend? Adam thought boredly, and at the same time snapped his fingers, William's excited expression suddenly calmed down, and then walked out of the room with blank eyes, walked out of the academy city, and did not come to his senses until he was far away.
After William was driven away, Avril Avril Guardian said to Adam, "The first one to be tempted to resist is Duncan, this is not like his character, it seems that he is much more well-informed than we think." ”
Adam asked, "Is the Duncan consortium strong?"
"Very strong, one of the strongest mage groups within the scope of the Third Holy Tower, Duncan was a senior exploration mage before, and then after a mission, he broke away from the Holy Tower and became a free mage. ”
Is it that you lose the courage to resist after seeing the strength of the enemy?
Adam thought as he informed the guards under the tower to bring Master Victor in.
The conversation with Master Victor was much easier, and the mage knew Adam's attitude after seeing William who left in a daze, and he routinely handed the olive branch of the Rex Consortium to Adam, not caring whether Adam accepted it or not, and after a few words, he left the tower happily, leaving only an apple on the table.
The kind of apple that Moldor Superdimensional never leaves in his hand.
Aisha stepped forward and picked up the apple, used the special magic of the Third Holy Tower to check whether it was harmful, and then handed it to Adam: "There is some information in it, Mordo, very interesting person." ”
Adam took a bite of the apple, and his consciousness instantly entered the gray-white special space, and the figure of Moldor Superdimensional appeared in his mind, and said in a very fast tone: "You are very dangerous now, all the consortia and free mages within the scope of the Six Holy Pagodas will continue to test you, once they are sure that you cannot be used by them, they will definitely not let you continue to grow..."
After some time, Adam destroyed the apple on a physical level, muttering, "What a clumsy method." ”
———
During the three months, the tower was full of visitors, and the mages representing the chaebol of the consortium were either kind, tough, or arrogant, no matter what kind of attitude, the meaning was the same: "Obey us and serve our interests, otherwise you will not end well." ”
Adam thought it was ridiculous, and simply let Garfield take his form to deal with them in the tower, while he hurried to complete the initial layout of the academy continent.
This batch of construction bypassed the forces that were determined to be completely controlled by the chaebol, the land planning was basically completed, with the city of colleges as the central point radiating outward, setting up a city every 500,000 square kilometers, a large city for every 10 million square kilometers, roads extending in all directions, ordinary communicators were distributed free of charge to all mortals in the range, and when the preliminary census entry was completed, Yashi issued an official order - in each city, at least two basic education colleges should be established, and all teachers would be robots.
After the order was issued, it caused an uproar, and the chaebols could not sit idly by, and manipulated the mortal representatives of their forces to gather in the city of the academy and demand free teaching.
