After the two mages walked out of the tower's teleportation array, they were immediately surrounded by the enforcers, and these alchemy puppets showed a fighting posture and issued a warning to the two mages: "Mage Keno, mage Ryan, you have detected a negative energy aura at a critical point, please explain immediately." ”

At the same time, the first layer of the tower was surrounded by a strong energy field, and the materialized energy interfered with the normal operation of the tower, and the strength of the mage still felt like a thorn in the back, Master Ryan hurriedly threw Adam out and said, "The apprentice Adam was torn by the soul of ancient magic and is in a state of instability, I ask to meet Master Victor." ”

Hearing Master Ryan's explanation, the strong energy field weakened, and the alchemy puppet walked in front of Adam, stretched out his mechanical arm and inserted it into the rune seal, Mage Ryan directly lifted the seal he had set, and the current composed of silver miniature alchemy robots completely covered Adam in an instant.

After doing this, the alchemy puppet paused slightly in place, and then Dean Victor's voice sounded in the ears of the two mages: "Bring him to me." ”

The two mages were escorted by the enforcers all the way to the penultimate floor of the tower, where they saw the true body of the mage who seemed to have stayed here all along.

"Good day, Master Victor. ”

The huge mage real body nodded to the two of them, and then took Adam from the alchemy puppet, easily breaking through the silver seal, he looked at Adam's state and said, "This little guy, I don't know whether to praise his boldness or mourn his misfortune." ”

The two mages, Keno and Ryan, knew that after Adam was handed over to Master Victor, their fate was no longer within the control of the two of them or Adam himself, and life and death were only in the thoughts of the high-level mages, and after gently explaining the things before and after, they sat quietly on the side.

Master Victor stretched out his huge finger to Adam's point, and then a three-dimensional light curtain appeared in the space, and the light curtain played what was happening in Adam's soul sea.

Mage Ryan and Mage Keno looked at the light curtain, their expressions suddenly becoming stunned and strange.

"Soul torn and mutated?"

Master Victor nodded: "That's right, it's mutated, most of the ancient magic is unstable, it's easy to change its nature because of even a slight influence, this magic was originally used to tear the soul, but now," he pointed to the two monsters in Adam's soul that were fighting each other, "The mutated negative energy has converged into a whole, this magic has the ability to surpass the first-level ancient magic, and it wants to fight for control of this body." ”

Keno's research direction was completely different from that of the soul, and he couldn't understand what was going on in Adam's soul, but he had heard Master Victor say that magic mutated into a whole, but now, he saw two.

Hearing Master Keno's question, Dean Victor said, "That's why I said he was bold, this little guy has found a way to fight against ancient magic without systematic knowledge guidance and without being exposed to ancient magic. He became another monster of despair. ”

Master Keno couldn't help but ask, "What are the consequences of doing this?"

"Success or failure is just that, success saves itself, failure becomes a monster. It's just that no matter what the outcome is, his soul will inevitably be tainted with the breath of ancient magic, which will have a great impact on his future path, and may make him unable to explore the truth again. ”

After Master Victor finished speaking, he canceled his magic, then handed Adam to the alchemy puppet, motioned to the puppet to send Adam to his laboratory, and then said to the two mages: "Your task is completed, you will settle it yourself later, as for the reward for saving this apprentice, if he can wake up, you can discuss it yourself, if not, the academy will accept his contract, and then give you a reward." ”

The two mages saluted and stepped back, at which point Master Victor said again, "Oh, by the way, the new recruitment job is very short, if you have time, you can go and pick up the task." ”

......

Everyone's time is not determined by one person, the academy without Adam is still functioning, in Adam's laboratory, James and Frank accept the news after the initial shock, and are prepared that Adam will not be able to return, but they do not leave the laboratory, firstly because of the contract, and secondly, they have nowhere to go.

After William returned to the Academy, he silently signed a contract with the Academy, became a contract apprentice, and then dismissed his organization, once again living a life of seclusion.

Elliot had been here many times, but Adam was now in the Dean's laboratory, and he could not see or get any useful information from the three of them, and after repeated disappointments, he gradually stopped coming.

There were only three of them left in the lab, and they didn't feel anything when Adam was there, but after the absence of Adam, they all accumulated a lot of questions, and these problems were slow to explore and discuss solutions on their own.

Soon, a new batch of apprentices came to the academy, and there were no more visitors from the desert island, all of whom were nearly 500 highly qualified apprentices recruited from their native towns.

Due to their background and talent, they had a certain amount of magical strength before entering the school, and because of their large numbers, they had no respect for the previous batch of apprentices at all, and wantonly encroached on the mission resources.

There were many head-on clashes between the old and new apprentices, and even some apprentices died because of duels, and at first William's group of apprentices gained the upper hand with the spirit of courage after the battle of life and death, but as time went by, they went into a trough because of the number of people, and there were already people who 'betrayed' and joined the new apprentice team, turning against their original companions.

So someone found William and asked William to teach the rookies who didn't know the height of the sky and fight for the rights and interests of the old apprentice.

But William refused.

He found that his thoughts were getting closer and closer to Adam a year ago, and he only felt bored watching these stupid and ridiculous fights, and he finally knew the reason why Adam refused indifferently when he and the others asked Adam for help.

Just like he didn't understand at the time, they didn't understand William either, and then he also became a marginal man.

This made the rookies think that William could be bullied, but after William blatantly killed several rookies one after another, no one was willing to provoke him, just like Adam back then.

A whole year has passed, and after the rookies have participated in the trial assessment and left the academy, the early morning laboratory welcomed the first guest in a long time.

Crestle.

William opened the door of the laboratory, looked at the noble and indifferent Krystal in front of him in a daze, and found that the timid girl who was like a little beast was completely different from before, and looking at her was like seeing a second Adam.

"Long time no see, Corey. ”

"Good morning, William, long time no see. ”

William invited Krystal into the lab, motioned for her to sit down casually, and sighed, "You're not the same as you used to be. ”

Krystel smiled slightly, like an iceberg melting, reflecting the sun's brilliance: "You are the same, people always change, they always have to change, don't they?"

"Yes, it always has to change, otherwise it will be eliminated. ”

After saying this, the two sat silently, not knowing what to say.

After that, Krystal got up and walked back and forth in the laboratory, looking at every instrument and report with great interest, William sat quietly, without introducing or stopping, after a long time, Krystal asked softly, "Adam, is there no news yet?"

William raised his head: "Do you know that too?"

"Well, Mentor Black told me that he was still so strong, that he escaped under the official mage and fought until now. ”

Blake, Mentor. William tasted the title with mixed feelings, and his original partners each took different paths, but he still did not find his own way, and still lived under the protection of Adam.

"How have you been?"

"It's very good, the mentor has knowledge that I can't learn in my life, and I feel like I'm improving every day," I am getting closer to Adam every day, but the benchmark, the goal I want to catch up with and surpass, I don't know life and death.

"But my mentor was still not very happy with me, and he had said many times that if it was Adam, he would have done better. ”

"You say, is he going to die like this?"

William let out a long sigh.

"Definitely not, how could he die so worthless?!"

Krystal got up after asking herself, she didn't want any answer from William, because the answer was already in her mind.

At this time, the door of the laboratory was opened again, and James and Frank walked in one after another, looking at the two curiously, and Krystal nodded lightly to the two of them before walking out the door, walking into the distance without hesitation.

James asked William, who was stunned, "Who is she? The energy fluctuates so strongly, I didn't know there were such strong apprentices in the academy." ”

"She's another Adam. ”

James and Frank looked at each other, not knowing what William meant, and William didn't mean to explain, so he walked aside alone and began to construct meditation methods against the Mental Power Amplifier and the Magnifier.

......

A month later, the new batch of apprentices returned to the academy after a reduction of three percent, their trials were more difficult than William's, and after the real baptism between life and death, they were much calmer, and the academy ushered in a long-lost peace.

At this moment, Adam, who had been sleeping and suffering in Dean Victor's laboratory, finally decided the victory and defeat in the battle in the sea of souls.
