(Written before, lately everyone has been talking about me water...... Well, I accepted the criticism, I deleted the next tens of thousands of words, and deleted and condensed the daily plot into one chapter. This chapter is a transitional chapter and is a bit stiff...... The next chapter begins the War Trial plot. ）

Tim Peggy's cold gaze seemed to penetrate Dean Barbara and fell directly on Adam, the anger in it made Adam shudder, but he knew that he was safe, so he simply hovered behind the Dean silently.

Tim Page also revealed the true form of the elementals, but in the end he did nothing, just detained Monica from the ground, and flew out of the tower without even saying a cruel word.

———

"Actually, you don't have to worry about it, Tim Page will never dare to kill you. After the dust settled, Tim Peggy left Moldor Academy with Monica, the only surviving apprentice, while Adam returned to her office with Dean Barbara.

"Because of the rules of the Mage Council?"

Dean Barbara nodded: "That's right, there are few rules in the council, but the more this is the case, the more no mage dares to violate the existing regulations, and even his first magic is just a bluff, otherwise you won't have a chance to dodge at all." ”

Adam thought back to the situation just now, and knew that what the dean said was right, the feeling after being locked in the front was really terrible, and Adam suddenly thought of the anti-mage: "Will he ......?"

"No, it won't. Dean Barbara said categorically, and then looked at the puzzled Adam and gave an explanation: "First, the reason why he is angry is not how much he cares about the life and death of the apprentice, but more because he has lost face. Second, the war trial began quickly, the trial was watched by the True Spirit Archmage, as long as you passed the trial to become a mage, your soul would be uploaded to the magic net, and no mage would dare to risk angering all the True Spirits to sneak attack a war mage. ”

Dean Barbara personally handed Adam a drink and motioned for him to try it.

Adam looked at the purple bubbles in the cup, the hot and boiling drink hesitated a little, and after taking a sip tentatively, he found that the strange drink tasted very good, and the liquid quickly filled the spiritual power he had just consumed after entering the mouth, Adam's eyes lit up, and he drank the drink down.

Adam thanked Dean Barbara and asked, "Excuse me, when will the War Trial begin?"

Dean Barbara pointed to the seal on his chest: "Don't worry, it's good for you to stop properly, although knowledge represents power, but how to use power requires a process of exercise, I saw your magic, the power is very good, but I think you can do better, don't you?"

Adam admits that the dean has a point, but it doesn't apply to him, the thread in his mind is being optimized every moment, the new magic he just used on a whim has been revised many times in the short time of the conversation, and if the duel happens again, he can guarantee that none of Monte Carlo's apprentices will leave alive.

However, he immediately got the news he wanted to know, and Dean Barbara smiled and said to him, "After two years, within the scope of the Fifth Element Holy Tower, all the qualified apprentices in the academy will be trained together under the arrangement of the Holy Tower. ”

———

After receiving the good news from the dean, Adam went to the academic department to submit his paper and some relatively crude spell rune group, and after walking out of the tower, he saw a group of people waiting outside.

In addition to the assistants in the lab and Elliot, William and Frank, whom they hadn't seen for a long time, were also present.

"Let's go. After Adam said two words, he flew out of the academy with everyone behind him.

There were no funerals, no cemeteries, and most of the apprentices were incinerated directly with magic after they died, and James was no exception, and under everyone's gaze, Adam took James's body from his personal space and suspended it in the air.

Adam waved his hand lightly, and a raging flame ignited on the corpse, accompanied by a fresh breeze from nowhere, and the gray-white ashes flew to the heavens and the earth.

Everyone bowed lightly, as if they were seeing off this old friend.

———

Nothing was said along the way, and everyone separated in the academy, with the assistants going to enjoy the holidays, and Adam returning to the academy with Frank.

"Aren't you in a good state?" asked Adam curiously.

Facing Adam Frank, he had nothing to hide, and directly lifted the cloak covering his body, revealing a body that had been mechanically transformed except for his head, and opened his mouth to make a strange voice: "Indeed, Master Keno has encountered some problems in his research, I was going to ask you for help, but I didn't expect to hear the news of James's death." ”

James was dead, and the two weren't wasting any time in paying any respects to him, and Adam, feeling the weakness of Frank's flesh and blood, said, "Lack of motivation?"

"That's right, that's the problem, the batteries you make are no longer able to provide enough energy, and I now have to replace the batteries three times a day to maintain the consumption of the most basic actions. ”

"What did Master Kino say?"

Frank took out a few batteries from his cloak, lifted the baffle to replace them, and said, "Master Mage has thought about replacing some of the energy into mana, but it is not compatible with this kind of mechanical body built entirely on electrical energy, and he heard that your research has made new progress, so he asked me to ask." ”

Only then did Adam know why Frank came so coincidentally, and it seemed that the message between the mages was very fast: "This problem is not difficult to solve, you can go back and wait, I will tell you the result." ”

Since the two had signed a contract before, Adam did not hesitate to invest in Frank, and once Frank was really promoted to a mage with new energy, he would get even greater benefits than Frank himself.

———

The next two years were uneventful, Adam no longer accepted new assistants, and the old batch of assistants did not renew their contracts after they expired, and Adam became more low-key than before, only perfecting the original spell rune group and creating new magic in the laboratory every day, rarely leaving the laboratory.

One day, near the end of two years, a man he hadn't seen in a long time came to his lab.

"It's a pleasure to see you again, Master Victor. ”

It was the clone of Master Victor who had arrived, and he himself was fighting on the other plane, and the connection between his souls made him murderous.

He stepped forward and patted Adam on the shoulder: "Don't call me sir, you are already a member of the mage, you only need to call me Master Victor in the future." ”

Adam was as good as he was.

"Are you ready? Your war trials are about to begin. ”

"Of course, I can't wait. ”
