Chapter II: Heavy Responsibility

Next Chapter

There are countless large magic academies on the continent of Erras, and the Cangyi Magic Academy is just a small academy with little name.

However, even if it is such a small magic academy, it is impossible for anyone to underestimate it, because magicians are originally god-like beings to people.

Some civilians have never seen a real mage in their lives, even though the prestige of the mage has long been heard on the mainland.

If it weren't for the scarcity of people in Cangyi Academy, they wouldn't have held any magic apprentice selection with such fanfare.

Recently, the war in the wizarding world has intensified, but the dispute between the Papal mages and the natural schools has become more and more intense, and the disagreement caused by the belief in different gods will lead to the next magic war*.

For this reason, many magic schools have begun to expand their power in preparation for future wars.

Although there are apprentice recruitment locations in many cities, the Academy of Magic focuses on the nation's capital, Delaplon.

In fact, there is no need to pay any fees for this selection, and the main thing is that the palace officials are doing the trick, and those evil wolves who can't feed can always find an opportunity to squeeze the blood and sweat of the civilians.

However, there are still many people who can afford to give two silver coins, so on the day of the selection meeting, the city of Delaplung was already crowded.

In addition to the nearby children and their families, there were also many idlers who came to watch because they had never seen a magician.

For them, the magician is like a mysterious creature like a dragon, which is bound to bring visual shock.

But in fact, many people were disappointed, because in the fountain square in the center of Delaplon, there were two people sitting at this moment, one was a thin old man in a gray robe, and the other was a blonde young man with an unattractive appearance, he was wearing a brown robe, and even a little tattered.

They just set up a wooden table in front of the square, and then sat behind each of them, watching more and more people surround them in the middle.

The two suspected magicians weren't even wearing the legendary peaked hats or pipes that could spit out animal-shaped smoke rings.

However, those with a little knowledge still know that the gray-robed old man is likely to be a third-level mage, and the young man is a lowest-level fifth-level mage.

Because there are records in the literature, magicians are divided into five levels, in order: brown robe, purple robe, gray robe, blue robe, and black robe, which represents mages, intermediate mages, senior mages, magic masters, and super magic masters.

I heard that there is also a crimson-robed god on the super magister, but that is all a legend, and it is not even recorded in the official history.

But it is no wonder that nothing that can be called God can be recorded in the history of mankind, but only in the canon, and if the history of mankind dares to involve God, it is a blasphemy against the laws of nature, and it will surely suffer great calamity.

Looking left and right, Hall didn't feel that there was much difference between these two people and ordinary people, except for their calm and intelligent eyes, Hall had a hard time believing that this was a magician.

The scene was very noisy, and the teenagers and young people who had paid the fee were gathered in the inner circle, about a thousand people, all of whom were children from nearby towns.

Some of the children were richly dressed and brought with them servants, and they looked like nobles.

However, these noble young masters and young ladies who are usually pampered are now the same as themselves, standing in this misty drizzle, which makes Hall's heart a lot more balanced.

Perhaps only the power of magic can make everyone equal.

On the table in front of the two mages, there were three transparent crystal balls, and a young man in a waistcoat and long cloth pants walked up, and everyone fell silent.

The gray-robed mage said, "Alright, start the test, put your hands on each of these three balls, and you will be able to measure your magical potential, alchemy potential, and sorcery potential. ”

The boy rubbed his hands nervously, then looked back at the crowd.

There was a middle-aged couple looking at this side intently, their eyes full of expectation, and it seemed that the teenager's parents had great expectations for him.

Hall swallowed and saw the boy place his large, thin hand on the first crystal ball.

Everyone's breath was held, only the sound of autumn rain was dripping, which seemed a little weird.

After two seconds, the crystal ball did not light up, and the young mage said, "Elemental affinity is zero, and spiritual power potential is zero." ”

The young man was a little disappointed, stunned for a moment, and put his hand on the second crystal ball, and the result was: "Zero material perception, zero potential for material transformation." ”

The boy fell into an ice cave, his face turned white, he didn't dare to look back at his parents, and he trembled and put his hand on the third crystal ball.

Looking at the reaction of the crystal ball, the gray-robed mage snorted and said, "Okay, you're pretty straightforward, pure magic idiot, all values are zero, don't waste time, next!"

The young man walked off the stage with his head down, there was no blood on his face, and then a voice sounded in the crowd: "Child, it's okay, our family is destined to be a laborer's life, work hard in the future, maybe you can marry a good daughter-in-law." ”

Everyone sighed, and a small, short-haired boy walked up.

"Elemental Affinity Five...... Four ...... of mental potential"

The next hundred or so children, none of them have a value of more than ten, it seems that that sentence is absolutely correct, only one person out of 10,000 people has qualified magic potential, not to mention that there are only more than 1,000 people here, maybe none of them are qualified here.

Even with the bloodline of the magician's grandson, Hall inevitably beat a drum in his heart, carrying the fate of so many people, his heart is extremely anxious.

At this time, someone laughed and discussed: "Are these two guys pretending to be magicians to cheat money, I don't think the crystal ball has ever been lit at all, and the clothes of these two guys don't look like the legendary noble magicians." ”

Another person said: "Then who knows, anyway, there is only one mage seedling among 10,000 people, even if the crystal ball is not lit today, the deception of these two guys will not be exposed." ”

The conversation between the two of them was so quiet that only the people next to them could hear it, and the environment was so noisy that no one cared.

But it was this conversation that made the young mage stand up, and a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said, "Ladies and gentlemen, there are people here who are challenging the dignity of magicians, and you say they don't look like frogs in Akita? ”

These words made everyone fall silent, and everyone held their breath.

For at the fingertips of the young magician there was a green light that was as dim as a candle at first, and then as dazzling as the sun and the moon, and the already dim sky became even darker, almost like night.

The wind whistled from nowhere, blowing people's hair and clothes around.

Everyone opened their mouths wide, and they had never seen such a strange thing.

Then the magician pointed his finger, and a bolt of lightning shot into the crowd, causing a scream.

Then the light cleared, and the sky was back to normal, but there were two more frogs in the crowd.

They screamed in pain, overwhelmed, and finally jumped into a small ditch and fled.

Everyone was silent, and they were all very frightened, it turned out that the magician was such an irritable character!

"Everyone, please keep your mouths shut......" The young mage smiled slightly, sat down again, and said, "Go ahead." ”

No one knew if those two poor fellows would be able to change back into human form, but even if they couldn't, no one would dare trouble the magician.

A spell is enough to turn a thousand-strong and well-armed cavalry into a mountain of frogs.

And then to watch the frogs wield their swords against the magicians? It's the funniest joke in the world.

Maybe they're in a good mood and just turn you into another animal, and if they're not happy, do a thunderstorm, and that's a piece of human flesh barbecue.

Hall lamented that it would be nice if he had the power to turn that bastard prime minister into a frog, then skin and dry it to make frog jerky.

This can't help but make his blood boil, the magician is really a powerful existence!

The atmosphere became silent for a while, and many people had not yet recovered from the turmoil just now.

At this time, I heard an unruly voice say: "What is the broken crystal ball, let Uncle Ben try it!"

Hall looked at it and was taken aback, wasn't that Rhoda who stole everyone's money?
