"This mission is to patrol the southern part of the Underworld. Sweep as many minotaurs as you can and retrieve their horns as proof. The academy pays based on the number of minotaurs we kill. ”

Jim gave a brief introduction to the mission and was about to beckon someone to go down.

Ever since Daniel came, Simon, who had been very arrogant, as if everyone owed him hundreds of magic stones, suddenly said, "Wait a minute, Jim, I took you on a mission at your request this time, and I don't want to bring any waste." What skills do you have to talk about and get to know each other?

Let me start by saying that I am a first-level wizard apprentice, good at fireball art, and can fire five fireballs in a row in ten seconds. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked sideways, they didn't expect his speed to be so fast. If an ordinary person wants to launch a fireball technique, it will take at least three or four seconds. He can do it every two seconds, so fast that it's amazingly fast.

Hearing him say this, Osmond also introduced himself. "A first-level wizard apprentice, skilled in light sorcery, able to heal even the weakest injuries. ”

The more Daniel listened, the more uncomfortable he became, and he always felt that these people didn't seem to be very powerful, so he turned on the chip and looked at it carefully.

Simon Level 1 Wizard Apprentice Strength: 2.3 Dexterity: 2.2 Constitution: 2.5 Mental Power: 18

Osmond Level 1 Wizard Apprentice Strength: 2.2 Dexterity: 2.6 Constitution: 2.8 Spirit: 17

Jim Level 1 Wizard Apprentice Strength: 2.1 Dexterity: 2.3 Constitution: 2.4 Spirit: 13

How so?

Jim's difference was something he had known for a long time. It is impossible to expect everyone to be as talented as him. In just over two years, Jim has been able to promote to a first-level apprentice.

Many apprentices, even after four or five years, do not necessarily become full-fledged apprentices.

But why, Simon and Osmond are also first-level apprentices, this is not scientific at all, you must know that he has been promoted to second-level a few days ago. I just didn't tell anyone. It's only been more than two years.

And Simon is the last apprentice, who has several years more time to study than him, but he is still a first-level apprentice, and the gap is too big.

How could this happen?

He originally thought that the reason why Jim invited him was to let him hang out behind Simon and Osmond, the two of them were second-level apprentices, enough to ensure safety, so he dared to go to the underworld.

Unexpectedly, it was an expedition organized by a group of first-class apprentices.

So what's the point of him following this time. There is a huge gap between the first-level apprentice and the second-level apprentice, and following them, Daniel always has a feeling of being with a child. He didn't want to be idle and waste his time as a nanny.

Could it be that the last apprentice still has any hole cards in hand, so he can not be afraid of the second-level apprentice.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but ask, "Senior Saimen, I heard that you are good at fireball techniques and can send five fireballs in a row within ten seconds. Is it true, can you let me see. ”

Simon glanced at him arrogantly, and said lightly, "What do you mean kid? Don't you still believe in my strength? I know that you have mixed well in the academy in the past two years, and that's just because the seniors don't have the same knowledge as you."

Since that's the case, I'll let you see that the strength of the last session is not comparable to you. Don't say I'm bullying you, make a move!"

Jim hurriedly grabbed Daniel and said, "Daniel just hasn't seen such a powerful master as you, if you want to see it, how dare you compete with your seniors." ”

As he spoke, he gave Daniel a wild look and asked him to apologize.

Daniel patted him on the shoulder and walked out. "In that case, let me see your tricks. ”

With that, he recited the incantation, and a fireball flew forward, and the whole process took only a second.

Simon still had his hands behind his back and didn't react. When he saw the flying fireball, he trembled in fright and threw himself to the side in embarrassment.

Simon's face flushed with anger. "Daniel, we're just talking, why do you want to use demonized items, do you want to kill people?"

As he spoke, he took out his staff and recited the incantation, and soon, a fireball appeared at the top of the staff and blasted towards Daniel. At the same time, he kept incantating, and another fireball quickly formed.

Daniel seemed to be frightened and didn't move, only waiting for the fireball to fly in, and then used the fire shield to resist, allowing the two to cancel each other out. And then there was no movement.

Simon was secretly amused, he thought that Daniel dared to provoke, what did he rely on, but he didn't expect that he couldn't even fight the most basic enemy.

How did he know that Daniel didn't take it seriously at all, and was secretly thinking about other issues.

It took 1.9 seconds for Simon to launch a fireball, and looking at how hard he was holding back, it was not bad to be able to use five fireballs in ten seconds.

In Daniel's apprenticeship, of course, it was very good. I didn't see that Jim, as an apprentice with dark talents, was valued by his mentor, and he was far from it.

But he was an apprentice from the previous class, so this is a bit bad.

Seeing that he was angry, he looked like he wanted to kill, not like he had any other backhand. Is this what he really is?

Just like that, he's still the strongest member of the squad. What can he do with them in the underworld? to be a nanny? He is not idle like that.

For a while, Daniel was a little distracted, holding the blazing fireball in his hands, and said, "Senior, I suddenly feel a little unwell, so I won't go to the underground world today." Let's say goodbye, there are some inconveniences, and please take care of the seniors. ”

Simon fired five fireballs in a row, and he was already tired and panting. Hearing him say this, he thought it was ridicule, and his face turned red with anger, but seeing Daniel's hair so neat under the attack of the fireball technique, he knew that the gap between the two was huge. His lips squirmed, and he didn't speak.

The rest of the people looked at Daniel like a monster, especially Jim. This time, he finally persuaded Simon to take him to the underworld, and he owed a lot of favors for this.

He saw that Daniel had developed well in the past two years, and he wanted to win it over, but he didn't expect this to happen, so he would have known that he wouldn't take Daniel.

Others don't know, doesn't he know yet. Don't look at Simon's arrogance, that's because he has the ability to be arrogant.

Simon is another mentor's apprentice, and he is very strong, even among the last apprentices. Although he has not yet been promoted to a second-level apprentice, it is not far off.

However, it is unbelievable that he has not even broken Daniel's defenses.

As he walked down the road, Daniel didn't know how to describe his feelings. He didn't understand why he was in this situation, and suddenly Maxwell's voice came from the badge.

"Daniel, come to me. ”

Daniel felt a little uneasy in his heart, not understanding why he was looking for himself. In the past two years, due to his rapid improvement in strength and rapid learning, Maxwell has rarely disciplined him and left him to develop on his own.

Who would have thought that this time they would find themselves.

When he came to the Wizard's Tower, he saw Maxwell looking at him with a smile.

"Yes, yes, I thought it would take you two years to find out what was going on, but I didn't expect you to know it now. ”

Daniel was a little confused, thought for a long time, and said suspiciously, "Mentor, do you mean Simon and their business?"

"Yes, do you think that everyone is like you, who can be promoted to the second level in just over two years, do you know why the academy allows apprentices to stay in the academy for thirty years?"

Daniel was shocked, "Mentor, you know, I didn't tell others that I was promoted to a second-level apprentice!"

"Do you still need to tell this, you really think I'm blind, I knew it as early as the first day of your promotion, but you didn't say that I didn't ask.

Tell you, the reason why thirty years is allowed is that there is no way. Because even if you have 30 years, less than 10% of them can graduate as a Level 3 apprentice. Most of them graduated as second-level apprentices, and about 20% of the fools got out as first-level apprentices.

You can become a second-level apprentice now, do you know what that means? It means that you may be promoted to a full-fledged wizard within thirty years. ”

Daniel then realized how talented and wicked he really was. That's not to say that in a few years, I will be better than the previous students. At this moment, he deeply understood the meaning of being cold in a high place.

At first, he went to the Wizarding Academy with Vernal, and with them he was a small team, and they were friends.

But what now?

They didn't even get on a mission together. It's not that Daniel doesn't want to, it's not that Vernal doesn't want to, it's that the gap between the two is too big. The two are together, and Vernal can only drag him back, and if something goes wrong, Daniel has to be distracted to protect him. Vernal, on the other hand, could not help him in the slightest.

So much so that now, Vernal is helping him sell potions, and when the two meet, Vernal treats him with respect, like a subordinate more than a friend.

The same goes for Jim. He became Maxwell's apprentice one step earlier, and was much stronger than Daniel, who initially took care of him.

However, in the past two years, as Daniel's strength has increased step by step, the relationship between the two has gradually reversed, and Daniel has become more and more dominant.

Especially this time, Daniel was promoted to a second-level apprentice, and he suddenly found that the gap between him and Jim was so big. He was already far behind.

It was no longer possible to carry out the mission together, unless he wanted to bring a drag oil bottle, or to help him on the mission. But in any case, the relationship between the two is no longer as harmonious as it was at the beginning.

When I looked up, I didn't even have a friend, how sad it was.
