Chapter 11: Fire Wolf Town
Chapter XI
Fire Wolf Town is different from ordinary towns, it is a small town with a relatively large area under the jurisdiction of Odin City, but over the years, it has not developed as quickly as other towns, but has been tepid. One of the reasons is of course that it is far away, and the second is due to its special terrain.
From the map, Firewolf Town looks like an elongated noodle strip that separates the outer reaches of the Warcraft Mountains from the area of human activity, and as a result, the output of the east and west sides is different in this town alone.
Unfortunately, Claude and the others are going to the east of Firewolf Town, which is contrary to Brian.
"Brian, you've really worked hard along the way. Claude breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the human town in the distance.
"Uncle Claude, don't blame me, I'm afraid the Chamber of Commerce will lose a lot if I delay you for a few days, right?"
"Haha, money is endless, there is only one life. This is the secret to a businessman's success. Claude laughed, patted Brian on the shoulder, and said solemnly: "Anyway, thank you really this time, if there is anything, you can come to the Chamber of Commerce to find me, I will definitely help you." ”
As he spoke, Claude set his eyes on the skinny bandit who was tied up by Brian, although Brian said that he would hand it over to the academy's law enforcement team, but Claude more or less guessed that it was probably not that simple.
"Okay. Brian smiled, waved his hand, and waved Crowder goodbye with the skinny bandit and the crystal bottle.
Claude watched Brian leave, and watched him disappear into the crowd before turning away.
Over there, the sky on the periphery of the Warcraft Forest was already full of black clouds.
......
Different from Brian's imagination, there was no undercurrent turbulent atmosphere in Fire Wolf Town at this time, and the strange events on the forest road before seemed to have no impact on the people in the town, perhaps for these mercenaries who hung their heads around their waists all year round, death was already commonplace.
But the more this happens, the more Brian feels like the calm before the storm.
Fortunately, Odin Academy sent a lot of mentors this time, so I think they should be able to detect something strange.
Brian thought so, and then suddenly it felt as if someone was calling him.
He looked up and saw that it was a man with some freckles on his face waving to him and running quickly.
"Brian, why are you here now?" said the Freckled Cadet as he ran up to Brian, panting.
"Luke, why are you in Firewolf Town?" Brian looked at the Freckled Student with the same look of surprise.
This man is one of the few friends of Brian in the Odin Academy, and his family is a well-known wealthy merchant in Odin City, but it is a pity that Luke is bent on becoming a great magician and is not interested in the family's alchemy industry, which makes his father always have a hatred for him.
Luke met Brian during a magic lab class. It was also at that time that the freckled boy realized that Brian was far from being the kind of 'empty shell' magician that the outside world said, and even Luke thought that Brian's understanding of magic was comparable to that of some third-year students.
Coupled with similar personalities, the two quickly became friends who talked about everything.
Because of this, Brian knew that Luke's training location was not in Firewolf Town.
"Hehe, I asked the tutor to change it. Luke winked at Brian, then turned his gaze to the skinny bandit beside Brian and asked in confusion, "Who is this man?"
"A bandit, I caught it. Brian knew that he couldn't explain it in a few words, so he simply took it with him.
"Oh. Luke nodded, and then reacted suddenly: "Don't talk about this yet, Brian, you hurry up and report to the mentor......."
"Tut-tut, isn't this Brian, our Seventh Branch's top student?" Luke hadn't finished his words when he heard a dark voice from beside him.
Hearing this, Luke's face changed, and Blair followed the voice.
I saw a student who was much taller than him, looking at him with a gloating face.
Bryan naturally had a name in mind: Andre.
This Andrei was also a student of the Seventh Branch, but unlike the two of them, Andrei's father was a viscount of Odin.
And most importantly, Andre ranked fifty-first in the number of students in the seventh branch.
Here we have to mention the detachment of Odin Academy in Odin City, and even in the entire province of Grimm.
The Odin Academy has always been aimed at cultivating imperial talents, so in today's empire, many imperial magnates are from Odin students. As a result, with the support of these supporters, Odin Academy has been granted a lot of special rights.
And one of them is to give the Odin Academy the right to divide the nobility.
Of course, only the best graduates can receive this honor, and Odin Academy has created a ranking list based on this right, 'Student Points Ranking'.
Although this ranking list was settled in the third year, almost all the students hoped that they would be able to become students in the list from the beginning.
André is just one outside the ranking.
If the top 50 students are stronger than Andre, then Andre is even better, after all, his skills are not as good as others, and he is willing to bow down. But this place contains Brian, an 'empty shell' magician.
The students of the Seventh Branch generally know that even if Brian can release magic, he will have strong sequelae, but on the contrary, the score of the Seventh Branch is ranked according to various factors.
Of course, this made Andre extremely unconvinced, and in addition, there are so many territories in the province of Green, and anyone who wants to obtain this honor can almost be said to be the enemy of the aristocratic class, so naturally, Andre looks down on Brian even more.
"Andre, what are you doing here?" Seeing that it was Andre, Luke's face immediately darkened.
"Hehe, what am I doing, I just saw a student being late. Andre looked at Brian in the dust, and said with a smug smile: "I didn't expect you to dare to be late for this student training, I really want to see how the instructors will punish you if they know." ”
Hearing Andre's words, Luke's face changed. Odin Academy is notoriously strict, even if it is a small thing, there are corresponding rewards and punishments, not to mention Brian's behavior of being two or three days late.
And if the mentors know about Brian, I'm afraid that Brian's student experience score will drop directly to the freezing point.
