Chapter XXIV

"Aaron, how long do you say we're going to stay in the carriage again, it's been a month, it's really difficult!" In the carriage, Matthew chatted with Aaron listlessly, and a month had passed since they set off.

In addition to eating and resting every day, you have to stay in the carriage at other times, the air is not very circulating, a few people stay for a long time, the air has become turbid and dull, every day to live this boring thing, most people have almost can't stand this heavy and depressing atmosphere!

Even if Matthew is chattering, he can't raise the interest in talking, and he looks listless all day long.

"How can I know how long I will stay, from the time we got in the car to now, we have only seen those two white-robed mages get off the bus once, and they didn't say anything, no one told us where the destination was, how far the distance was, it's useless to think about it now, just wait patiently!"

Aaron is more tolerant of this kind of boring days, and gradually gets used to it, adhering to the consistent concept, the boat is naturally straight to the bridge, and now it is useless to care about these, it is better to worry less about snacks and go with the flow.

Matthew rubbed his head, lowered his head, and let out a long sigh: "Hey...... I hope I can get to my destination soon!" As for the other people in the carriage, they were also silent at this time.

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

The boring days have passed another month in the blink of an eye.

Aaron was in a daze in the carriage, and several other people were either in a daze or making small movements, and suddenly, the carriage stopped, and then there was a shout: "All of you get off, we have reached the end, hurry up!"

"Haha! It's finally time to !!" Hearing this, Matthew's eyes lit up, he jumped up from the bed, and shouted excitedly, he had waited too hard for this moment!

Aaron, who was originally closing his eyes, also opened his eyes: "It's been two months, has it finally arrived!"

The expressions on the faces of several other people in the carriage also showed excitement, and they were finally able to leave this inhuman place, they were basically all princes and nobles, living in villas, and there were servants to serve them every day, and they had long been full of complaints about life in the carriage.

When I stepped out of the carriage, I was greeted by a cool feeling, a moist sea breeze, with a faint salty taste, which hit the face and made people feel refreshed.

"Isn't this place, haven't you already arrived at the academy?"

"It's like a port, is this really a destination!"

“......”

After seeing the surroundings clearly, many teenagers and girls who had just gotten out of the carriage began to discuss, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a place with a mage academy.

"Shut up, be quiet, listen to me!" A man in a gray robe appeared at some point, and shouted loudly: "This is the transit point to the academy 'Lorland Harbor', here, you will take a further talent test, and then choose the academy you want to go to, and after paying the full tuition, you can board the ship to the Gularan continent and go to your respective academy." ”

"I've listened carefully, I'm just going to say this once, the whole staff is waiting here, and then a person in charge will come and take you to the camp for talent testing and choosing an academy. ”

After the gray-robed man said these words, he turned around and left, and the carriage carrying the two white-robed mages disappeared from everyone's sight at some point.

"It turned out to be just a transit station, so I'm happy in vain!" Matthew shrugged his shoulders helplessly, with a look of disappointment on his face.

"It's finally come to this point! I hope the crystal ball can replace the tuition fee, or else ......" Aaron didn't care about the fact that this was a transit station, and now he was most concerned about the tuition fee, which was the most critical step, if he couldn't replace it with a crystal ball, then he wouldn't even be able to enter the academy.

After waiting for a long time, an elder in a white robe appeared in everyone's sight and glanced at the nearly two hundred students here: "I'll take you to the camp, and you all follow." With that, the white-robed elder turned around and walked in one direction.

Seeing the white-robed elder leaving, a group of young people and girls hurriedly strode up to follow.

"It seems that this old man is also a full-fledged mage!" Aaron followed the group, glancing at the elder who was leading the way from time to time.

The white-robed elder exuded a sense of oppression, and this sense of oppression Aaron had felt from the two mages in the carriage before, that is, this person was also a full-fledged mage.

After walking for a while, Aaron suddenly found himself in a camp: "What's the matter! Wasn't there nothing in front of you just now, why did you suddenly change your appearance!"

Aaron's eyes revealed shock, this change was almost only completed in an instant, one second there was nothing in front of him, and the next second it suddenly became a camp.

Not only Aaron was surprised, but the people in the team were also very surprised, only to see the white-robed elder smile faintly, and then explained: "The camp is shrouded in a hidden magic circle, forming an enchantment, you can't see the situation inside outside, only through the enchantment, can you see the scene here." ”

After listening to his explanation, everyone showed the same expressions as they were, and at the same time, they were amazed and yearned for the magical ability of this mage.

Following the old man in the camp, after a while, a group of people came to a large stone house, the door was open, and there was a lot of space.

"I'm here, you line up according to the instructions that came, take turns to go in and test, and the rest of the matter is up to you, I'll just send you here, and you should go back!" After saying this, the white-robed elder turned around and left, regardless of it, as if his task was only to bring people here, and he didn't have anything to do with the rest.

From beginning to end, he never said his name, and even when someone accosted him, he never responded, only occasionally saying something when he remembered something, as if he had no interest in these students at all.

Soon, there was a long queue outside the stone house, and Aaron and Matthew moved faster this time, grabbed a good position, lined up at the front, and waited to go in for testing.

The long line, with only one person going in at a time, was a bit slow, and it took half an hour to finally get Matthew's turn, and behind him was Aaron.

"Good luck!" Aaron smiled faintly as Matthew entered, wishing him a good result!

"Thank you, and good luck!" Matthew replied, and ran in as he hurried.

After a while, a hoarse voice came from the stone house: "Next come in!" Hearing this, Aaron knew that it was his turn, and immediately stepped inside.

Above the real of the room, there was a huge stone hanging that emitted white light, illuminating the whole room brightly, a bit like a large chandelier, the first time he saw such a magical stone, Aaron couldn't help but be curious, and looked at it a few more times.

In the room, I saw only an old woman, with a wrinkled face and wrinkled skin, who looked like she was seventy or eighty years old, sitting at a stone table with an unknown sphere on it.

Aaron walked briskly to the stone table, where there was no chair other than the one made by the old woman, and it was obvious that he was going to stand and test.

Aaron was about to open his mouth to greet the old woman, but he took the first step to speak: "Put your hands on the ball and try to hold on for as long as possible." ”

In this regard, Aaron didn't care about saying hello, and hurriedly stretched out his right hand and put it on the unknown sphere, and the cold touch followed, as if touching the ice, making his body tremble suddenly.

As soon as he touched the orb, he began to feel dizzy, and then he saw strange symbols, and as his head became more dizzy, he saw more and more symbols, until his head couldn't stand it anymore and withdrew his hand from the orb.

"Very well, now sue me, how are you feeling now, do you see anything?" Aaron withdrew his hand, and the old woman's words sounded.

"I felt a little dizzy in my head, and it was getting more and more obvious, and I saw three strange symbols, I don't know what they meant......" Aaron told the old woman how he felt at this moment.

"So-so, it's average, if you work hard, you still have a certain chance of becoming a full-fledged mage. After listening to what Aaron said, the old woman muttered to herself, then took a basin of water from the side, took out a strange pebble from her bosom, and threw it into the water.

Then the old woman said, "Now you look intently, don't be distracted, and then tell me what you see." ”

After listening to the prompt, Aaron followed her instructions and looked at the basin of clear water, paying attention and looking at it with full attention.

Gradually, the clear water changed, and the originally clear water suddenly swirled like a whirlpool, followed by a little bit of greenery, all over the basin.

Looking at this basin of water, he gradually fell into a state of confusion, with a trace of confusion in his eyes, he was fascinated by the scene in front of him!

"Sue me, what did you just see in the water?" After a few more moments, Aaron came to his senses at a slight call, and then the old woman's hoarse voice came to his ears.

"I saw a whirlpool, and then I saw a dense array of green dots of light all over the basin......" Aaron replied in detail.

Hearing these words, the old woman couldn't help frowning: "In addition to the green dot of light, do you see any other color of dot of light?"

"No, I only see one green dot!" replied, shaking his head.

"Alas...... It's a pity, if only you saw something other than a green dot!" the old woman sighed helplessly, and said with regret.

"Why? Can you sue me? When Aaron heard her say this, his heart tightened, and he had this bad premonition, and he desperately wanted to know the reason.
