Chapter Sixty-Nine: The Wizard's Tower
As the car arrived at the terminal, everyone felt too excited, and many of the people who leaned out of the window had their hair blown into their backs, and everyone got out of the carriage, carrying the suitcase, and walked up the stairs under the escort of several of Salgon's staff.
As the walls opened, everyone entered the castle hall and looked at the brightly lit and ornate castle, with its lavish stained glass windows, jewel-encrusted ceilings, artistic paintings on the walls, and a fireplace with animal heads.
"Wow!"
"That's Frank's painting—Holy War, which depicts the Golden King killing the twelfth wolf king Costa!"
"And the statue of Lancôme!"
"This is the work of Master Berlin Kai!"
Several apprentices who were born into wealthy families and had strong connoisseurship all exclaimed, the things in the hall were all priceless antiques, although there were nobles present, but they were also unexpected, most of them were born in middle- and lower-class families, where had they seen such a luxurious scene.
The table was full of silver cutlery, and the food was so dazzling that the stomachs of many apprentices who had not eaten since noon were rumbling.
With the dim lights and shining shadows, everyone walked into the castle, constantly looking around, feeling a kind of dizziness, at this time, the land fish Lu no Yu walked out of a circle and passed through the dimensional gate to reach them.
"Have you arrived? Why are there so few people? ”
Lu Zhiyu frowned, and found that there were only more than forty wizard apprentices who came over, which was far lower than his expectations, and more than two hundred admission notices were sent, only so many people came, and it seemed that more people chose to give up!
All the wizard apprentices also looked at Lu Zhiyu, only to see a man who looked almost indistinguishable from the elves standing in front of him, with long black hair tied behind his head, and a silver-trimmed white trench coat with a white shirt and black trousers underneath, and pure white boots under his feet.
"Let me introduce myself, my name is Anthony, I am the owner of this wizard's tower, and I will be your mentor in the future, I know you have a lot of doubts, you will slowly figure them out later, and tomorrow you will start the official class, and then you will live in this castle for five years of study!
Lu Zhiyu slapped his face: "Okay, little guys, since you have arrived, then let's have dinner, today is a dinner specially set up for you, everyone enjoy and cheer, and then sleep well, from today onwards, your life will no longer be ordinary!" ”
Although Lu Zhiyu spoke the Finkx language, it was actually a voice transmitted through spiritual power, and the other orcs and elves could also understand the meaning of the words, which led to the fact that they obviously felt that they couldn't understand what Lu Zhiyu said, but they could understand what it meant, and they covered their mouths in surprise one by one!
Lu Zhiyu sat down, everyone sat down on both sides of the long table in turn, the three tables that were originally set up, only one long table sat down, Lu Zhiyu waved his hand, and saw that the other two tables disappeared along with the food, exactly the same as the situation he appeared just now, which immediately caused a burst of exclamations from all the wizard apprentices, for them, this ability and gods are no different!
The food is carefully boiled, and the Ant-Man Witch Servant is carefully prepared as a chef, which can be said to be very attentive, and the seasoning and cooking methods are not seen by these wizard apprentices present at all.
Where have these little guys ever seen such food, they even swallow their tongues when they eat one by one, and they feel that this dinner party is like a dinner in the legendary kingdom of God, which can only be enjoyed by the gods in the kingdom of heaven in heaven!
After eating, Lu Zhiyu clapped his hands and said to them, "Finished eating?" So it just so happens that I came to give you the first guest of the wizard, for the wizard, the highest truth is the equivalent exchange, what you give, what you can have, if you don't pay, there is no return, your dinner just now, worth a gold coin, well, to the Luman Kingdom's Camaron shall prevail! ”
The apprentices present suddenly exclaimed, one golden horse is enough for an ordinary family of five to live for a month, and they can eat one meal, which makes everyone present accept it!
Then Lu Zhiyu continued: "Then the boat fare for you is ten gold marlons, and the annual tuition fee is two hundred gold marlons, which includes your books and teaching materials, accommodation, food, etc., laboratory use fees and standard experimental materials, and in addition, additional things, all of which must be charged!" ”
Everyone opened their mouths wide, such a high cost, adding up to nearly a thousand gold marons, even ordinary small nobles couldn't get it out, let alone the wizard apprentices present!
Pol stood up at this time: "But, Mr. Anthony, we can't come up with so much money!" ”
Lu Zhiyu narrowed his eyes: "I didn't say that I would charge you now, you can repay me this money after graduation!" ”
Levi stood up at this time: "This is blackmail, it's usury, how can there be such an expensive expense, even if we are five years later, we will not be able to repay such a debt in our lifetime!" ”
Lu Zhiyu was stunned for a moment: "Is Levi Bigto right?" ”
Levi immediately straightened up: "That's right, I'm from the Biketor family, and I'm a nobleman!" ”
Lu Zhiyu nodded: "In five years, you will find that the so-called nobles, emperors, power, and money are not attractive to you, just like the soil on the ground, because you want these, as long as you move your fingers easily, you can easily have them, and you can't afford Camaron?" That's okay, I'll kick him out of the tower for such a fool, and I'm not allowed to use the tower's name anymore, and I'm not allowed to call myself a wizard, because he's just an insult to the name wizard! ”
"I just want to tell you in this way that if you don't pay, there will be no return, and the equivalent exchange is the rule of this world, and it is also the truth that you, as a wizard, will believe in in the future!"
Levi's face was red at what Lu Zhiyu said, but he couldn't say a word to refute it, the magical sights and stories along the way, the strange ability to speak, the wind crow that can easily kill a team of bloodline knights, the life alchemy ship that can kill the son of the sea god through the ocean, the magical life witch, the rail car that can pass underground, the extremely luxurious wizard castle, and the magical ability shown by Lu Zhiyu, all made Levi speechless in surprise!
For this kind of character, these apprentices are like a group of frogs at the bottom of a well, they know for the first time that the whole world is so big, the ocean is like this, there is another continent and race beyond the world, and there are wizards who can master magical powers!
After the dinner, everyone talked a lot, and under the assignment of several administrators arranged by Lu Zhiyu, they each found their own room and lived in the castle, each of them had a private room, which was convenient for them to meditate without being disturbed, and it was more convenient for them to study and read!
But everyone was so excited that they couldn't sleep, and the fantasy and magnificent adventures of these days made them feel surging, especially the dinner party set up by Lu Zhiyu, and the words that were said, which kept echoing in their minds, making them toss and turn, and couldn't sleep all night!
