The crisp and melodious bell for the end of class was still echoing in this magic tower, and the nearly thirty apprentices of the "Thorn Tree" class had already seen Lucien leave without hesitation with the put away practice papers, without procrastination at all, so they started a heated discussion.

"Annick, Heidi, Reilia, do you know this Mr. X?" Noticing their unusual reactions, Grant asked, the squad leader, wearing a white shirt and blazer, with curly black hair and deep-set black eyes.

The other apprentices also looked at him for more information about this unusual teacher

Annick nodded slightly, "Yes, we know Mr. Evans. "He has always respected and admired the squad leader with high arcane talent, good mental talent, and good popularity.

Grant sighed, "That's great, isn't Mr. Evans so cool, and it doesn't matter if you don't have to listen to my class, as long as you can pass the final exam?"

"No gentleman has ever dared to say that, they always want us to focus all our energy on them in class, they are so old-fashioned and serious, how can Mr. Evans be so open-minded and so cool!

As if he had met a confidant, and as if he was impressed by Lucian's style that was different from other teachers, Grant seemed very excited, and followed Annick to call Mr. Evans. The other apprentices also thought Lucien was cool, and they didn't care about the seriousness of the apprentices at all, and only cared about the final assessment.

Heidi bared her teeth and said very seriously, "Mr. Evans really doesn't care much about the seriousness and concentration of his students, because one of the things he often says is: 'You learn arcane and magic for yourself, not for me.'" If you can't become a full-fledged magician, it's not me who will be sad and sad and have a bleak future, so why should I care what attitude you have to learn?' It's just one side of him, and the other side ......."

Lucian's words were so simple and easy to understand that the apprentices, including Sprint and Katrina, nodded invisibly, even without the teacher staring. The yearning for the identity, status and strength of a formal magician also makes himself and others full of motivation and pressure, although some people will look down on hard training. But no one slacks off, so their liking for Lucien has increased again, and they feel that he is simply a good friend of the apprentices, a teacher with a maverick style!

"What's the other side of Mr. Evans?" Grant was very curious about Lucien, noticing that Heidi's words were not finished.

Thinking of the practice just now and the unbearable experience of the past, Heidi and Leilia replied in unison: "After a while, you will know the truth, I hope you don't hate Mr. Evans too much then!"

"Ugh. Why do you hate?" Grant and the other apprentices felt that they would only worship this kind of teacher.

Annick, Heidi, and Reilia shook their heads in unison, "You'll get it then." "Seems like a joy to see others suffering just as much as you do?

Curious and confused, the apprentices began the second lesson on "Magic Potions (Beginner)".

............

Inside the teacher's office in the formal apprenticeship class.

As soon as Lucien stepped into the room with the test papers, five teachers, three men and two women, looked up from their desks and smiled, while the other seven teachers were still buried in their heads, preparing to teach or interpret their own magic.

See them smiling. Lucien nodded in return, and when he arrived in the morning, he was still worried that others would be surprised and question that he could enter the Douglas School of Witchcraft and Wizardry with only seven arcane points, but he didn't expect Roque to say everything quickly, so the five teachers who had a good relationship with Roque expressed their kindness and enthusiasm to Lucien, and the other seven magic teachers who were not on good terms with him became lukewarm and almost ignored Lucian.

Of course, if they didn't discuss the nature of their psychic power with them, they wouldn't have the time to trouble an ancient inheritance mage who didn't even have the rank of an official arcanist.

"Lucian, courses such as the Ancient Magical Language and Introduction to Magical Creatures are not difficult to teach, so you'd better hurry up and make up for the arcane basics. Vernia, a blonde sorceress who was about to go to class, kindly reminded Lucien as she passed by his desk.

She is a first-class arcanist, a second-ring magician, good at illusion and force field, twenty-five or sixteen years old, both mature and charming, and youthful and beautiful, but she is married, and her husband is a noble knight with the title of viscount, so she has to take a magic steam train every morning from Rentat, the capital of the Kingdom of Holm, to spend ten minutes coming.

Due to the proximity and dual status of a magician and a nobleman, she only needed two silver narls to go back and forth.

Lucien smiled politely, "Lady Vernia, thank you for the reminder, I will remember it." ”

"I like a polite and handsome young man like Lucian, and if you have time to come to Rentat, you will definitely come to my house. As a married lady, Vernia was not as shy as she had been when she was an unmarried lady, and smiled and teased Lucian.

In the entire magic school, female magic teachers account for about one-third, some are beautiful, some are ordinary and have excellent temperament, and there are even those who have failed magic experiments or have been eroded by the magic energy of a certain faction for a long time, and their appearance is terrifying.

When Vernia left, Lucien took out the test paper and browsed it, roughly understanding the level of ancient magic language in the "Thorn Tree" class, and then took out a quill pen and paper, and began to review and consolidate the second-ring magic "Mirror Shadow Technique" that had been analyzed.

After fighting the Fishman Mage, Lucien was very interested in this magic that could get rid of the lock, and it was the basic magic of the illusion system, which was also found in the Book of Stars and Elements, so Lucien was ready to use it as the first second-ring magic he had built, so as to be promoted to the second-ring magician.

............

Douglas School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, inside the "Magical Experimental Tower".

After the last session of the afternoon, "Introduction to Magical Creatures", Lucien hurriedly left the "Blood Bird" class and rushed here.

"Hello, I'm going to use an alchemy lab. Lucien politely said to the old magician who managed the "Magic Experiment Tower".

This old magician is called Ines, the level is the first and second rings, and he seems to be not young, I don't know how Lu Dao can enter the magic school as the manager of the "Magic Experimental Tower".

There was no smile on his wrinkled face. "I'm sorry, Mr. Evans, but the magic lab is full. You come early tomorrow. ”

"The magic lab is already full?" Lucien looked up at the five-story magic tower, although it was not wide, there were at least ten magic labs on the first floor, how could it be full so quickly?!

Ines replied blandly, "Mr. Evans." Twenty rooms should be set aside in the magic lab for the diligent apprentices who like to do magic experiments, so that they can have a suitable place to practice after dinner, after all, this is a magic school. And except for the laboratory reserved for a few second-level Arcanist gentlemen. The other magic labs are used by the first-come, first-served teacher. Sorry you're late. ”

"There are so many teachers who need to do magic experiments?" Lucien asked, a little frustrated and surprised.

Ines nodded: "Many of them do not do real magic experiments, but rely on the alchemy array and magic array in the laboratory to refine potions and items, as well as test the correctness of their magic structure and summoning rituals, and do not consume a lot of expensive materials, just like magic apprentices do." ”

"As you know, Mr. Evans, the greatest expectation of teachers entering the magic school is free access to the magic lab. ”

"Yes. I understand. But Mr. Ines, are there really no empty magic labs?like those reserved for second-level arcanists or apprentices, let me use them first, and I'll come out when they come, okay?" Lucien was never the one to flinch easily when faced with a problem. Keep thinking of a way.

If it weren't for the fact that the formal magic laboratory needed a lot of materials to depict the magic array, etc., if it wasn't for Lucien's current financial resources to afford, Lucien would have built an exclusive laboratory by himself.

Ines shook his head firmly: "No, I can't break the school rules. Unless Mr. Evans you become a Level 2 Arcanist, you have the privileges. ”

If the Arcanist level is raised, except for symbolizing that the mage level may have a breakthrough, there are no status privileges, then I am afraid that many mages will not be so keen on specializing in arcane arts.

Lucien tried several more times, but Ines firmly refused.

Just as Lucien was a little frustrated, but he was about to give up and prepare to see which magicians were using the laboratory and if there were any people he knew, a deep voice sounded behind him: "Are you Lucien? Evans?"

Lucien looked back strangely and saw a large man. He was a head taller than himself, ordinary and honest-looking, wearing a long black double-breasted gown, like a sturdy bear.

"Yes, I'm Lucien Evans, uh, X. Who are you?" Lucien thought that the name would be confusing, so he said the code name X.

The big man smiled innocently: "I know that because I know other teachers in the school, when I see strangers, I subconsciously think it's you." Hello, I'm K. ”

"It turns out that you are Mr. K, who has the same name and surname as me. Lucien looked at K with a little curiosity.

K said a little shyly: "Originally, Roque was going to introduce us to each other at noon, but I have something to do temporarily, so I'm really embarrassed." By the way, Lucien, you didn't occupy the magic lab?"

Standing in front of the management of the "Magic Experimental Tower" at this time, there is no other explanation.

"Yes, I came late because there was a class at the end of the last period. Lucien nodded.

K rubbed his pale yellow hair and smiled sincerely, "In that case, why don't you use the lab with me?" What kind of magic experiments are you going to do?"

"Concoction of magic potions. It won't disturb your magic experiments, will it?" asked Lucien politely.

K shook his head: "The magic experiments I have conducted do not use so many alchemy arrays many times, and they do not conflict with the preparation of magic potions. Come on, Lucien, we're all good friends of Roque, with the same name and last name. ”

"Thank you, K. You're always willing to help people, as Roque said. Lucien was sincerely grateful and did not miss the opportunity.

K smiled a little embarrassedly, not quite commensurate with his muscular and burly figure: "I have been able to get to where I am step by step because I have received the help of many gentlemen. Okay, let's go to the lab. "He's obviously the kind of guy who doesn't find a topic.

With K's permission, Ines didn't say anything more and let the two of them walk towards the fourth floor of the magic tower. (To be continued.) )
