The next morning, everyone got up early. When the sun first rose, the tent camps in the Wind Dragon Canyon were all demolished and cleaned.

This time, the number of wizard apprentices who decided to enter the puppet city was close to eight hundred. This number is much lower than that of three years ago, presumably because the tragedy three years ago deterred most rational apprentices. But it's still a very large group.

"One out of five of Ferrendor's current apprentices are here. Three-quarters of them were servants or retinues without official student status. Ellie Jie whispered as she led the crowd through the crowd.

Lans was silent, but took Ellie's words to heart.

It turns out that not only Crimson Castle has servants, but also the other three wizarding organizations. It's just that the servants of the Tree Worshippers Cottage and Rainbow Island are treated better, unlike the servants of the Crimson Castle, who are squeezed every day. Their name is also better, retinue.

Several people in the team all showed excited expressions, but Martha looked a little tired. As her boyfriend, Durin also went up to greet a few words, in exchange for Martha's lukewarm response. Durin touched his nose inexplicably, and walked back a little depressed.

Lance saw all this in his eyes and couldn't help but shake his head.

Intrigue exists everywhere, and the more brutal it is, the more this will be magnified.

"This woman, presumably, felt that it was difficult to protect herself in the puppet city, so she used her body to serve Sak. Lance thought slowly, "She thought that by doing this, she could exchange for Sark's priority protection." ”

"It's just that these wizards are all very indifferent. Sark, who pretends to be arrogant on the surface, is actually secretly more shrewd than anyone else. When it's really dangerous, will he risk it for the sake of a woman?"

The answer, of course, is no.

Sack comes from a wizarding family, and there will definitely be no shortage of women, even if she is a witch, she may not have played it. Martha did this, in Lance's opinion, simply stupid.

It's just that I pity the male apprentice Durin, who was betrayed by his girlfriend and kept in the dark.

"But none of this has anything to do with me. Lance thought calmly, "Zac asked me to join the team. I definitely didn't have any good intentions, I guess he wanted me to be cannon fodder and explore the way or something. Others probably plan to do the same. ”

In that case, Lance didn't need to care about the lives of the rest of the team. They are originally a group that has been brought together because of interests, and the level of trust in each other is pitiful. Once you encounter a real danger or a huge benefit, I am afraid that it will only be in the blink of an eye.

......

They made their way through the crowd, and at this time, people from the three major wizarding organization committees came to arrange the order. All wizard squads, or individuals, were given a sign. According to the serial number on the sign, more than 800 people slowly began to line up, and a twisted long snake suddenly formed in the Wind Dragon Canyon.

At this time, the wizard apprentices were quite peaceful, and no one planned to oppose the three major wizarding organizations, and they lined up in the line one by one.

In the depths of the canyon, those wizards were still busy, and the rune array under their feet was getting brighter and brighter, and by noon, the white light coming out below was even brighter than the sun.

"It's about to begin!" Ellie whispered, "I've heard my mentor say that the Golem City is a half-plane hidden deep in the canyon. is the masterpiece of a great puppeteer. Every three or five years, the half-plane of the puppet city operating in the void will overlap with our world realm to a certain extent. During the overlap, we can evade the gravitational pull of the space-time gap and enter it. But we can't stay too long, because after two weeks, under the influence of the gravitational pull and repulsion of the astral plane, the puppet city will begin to slowly deviate from our worldly realm, and even if you want to return at that time. Unless you reach the realm of the legendary level 5 mage and master the super sorcery of time travel. ”

"Wow, Sister Elliejie, you have a solid grasp of the knowledge of plane science. Martha exclaimed, "I haven't had time to learn the paid knowledge of plane science." ”

Ellie gave her a faint look and didn't speak.

Martha was suddenly embarrassed. Lance glanced at Ellie in some surprise, and the extremely enchanting woman actually glanced at him too.

The two looked at each other for a moment, and everything seemed to be clear.

"It turns out that she also found out. Lance immediately realized this, Martha and Ellie slept in a tent, and the female apprentice thought she could hide it from Ellie, but in fact she did not.

"Level 5 mage. To put it mildly, it has been more than five hundred years since a level 4 mage appeared. At this time, Sark, who had been silent, suddenly spoke: "The puppet city is killing every step of the way, after we go in, everything must be arranged by me." Otherwise, don't blame me for turning my face and not recognizing people. I don't want someone to be stuck in a puppet city because someone is holding me back. ”

Everyone was silent and nodded frequently.

Ellie smiled and said, "Naturally, we all listen to you, Lord Sark. ”

"How will the loot be distributed?" Lance suddenly asked.

Since he joined the team, he has always been silent, but this time he suddenly spoke, but it startled everyone.

Zack's face immediately darkened.

Martha glanced at Sark, and immediately jumped out and screamed: "The distribution of the loot is, of course, according to the rules. Lord Sack and Sister Ellie are both high-level apprentices, and they have priority loot rights. The rest is the four of us, all four of us are full students of Crimson Castle, and we have secondary assignments. ”

"As for you, a servant, you can only have the last level of distribution. Got it? It's your honor that Lord Sark is willing to take you. Follow us obediently, do what you have to do, and I won't treat you badly. ”

Seeing Martha speak, Durin immediately jumped out and said to Lance, "We regular students haven't spoken, why are you a servant doing so much?"

Lance ignored them and looked at Ellie.

Ellie waved her hand and said to Sack, "Although Mr. Lance is a servant, his mana is about the same as that of Martha, so I think that the distribution rights of the four of them should be equal. ”

"Sister Ellie!" Martha suddenly disagreed. It's just that before she finished speaking, she was glared at fiercely by Ellie.

The female apprentice was immediately silent, not daring to say anything more. In her memory, Ellie Jie never seemed to be so fierce.

Sack looked at Lance and Ellie with a gloomy face, and after a while, he said in a hoarse voice, "Okay, just do as you say." But I have one more point, I still have priority in your assignment, you know?"

Ellie Jie immediately showed a relaxed smile: "This is as it should be, who made you a high-level apprentice close to a second-level wizard?"

Shack snorted.

......

"All apprentices get ready, the puppet city will open immediately, all the apprentices get ready, the puppet city will open immediately!" "Above the Wind Dragon Canyon, two loudspeakers kept making screeching sounds. And all the people were in good spirits.

There was a low laugh from the depths of the canyon, followed by a bright yellow light that shone across the sky.

Everyone raised their heads in anticipation, and a pitch-black crack suddenly opened in the originally white sky.

On the rune array in the depths of the canyon, a large mushroom suddenly grew. The mushrooms are colorful and look very tender and delicious.

Under the gaze of everyone, the wizard team who received the No. 1 card climbed the wooden ladders on both sides, and several people jumped hand in hand to the mushroom.

"Poof!"

Several figures landed on the mushroom, and something magical happened, the soft mushroom immediately produced a huge elastic force, and several people were slammed into the sky!

With the support of the elastic force, several people flew into the pitch-black crack one after another, and did not reappear.

"Everyone who enters the Puppet City will appear in a different direction. Remember, we must hold hands for a while. Ellie warned, "Otherwise, you will be transported to a different place." ”

Several people nodded.

Ten minutes passed, and finally it was their turn.

Several members of the team held hands, and Lance held the hand of the blood mage Heinrich. Following the example of the previous teams, they stood on a wooden ladder and jumped on the mushrooms.

The huge elastic force immediately bounced several people into the sky!

Lance only felt that the scenery in front of him kept changing, and finally turned a golden yellow!
