Chapter 111
(Written before, recently everyone said that I am water... Okay, I accept criticism, I deleted the tens of thousands of words after the manuscript, deleted the daily plot and condensed it In the first chapter. This chapter is a transitional chapter, a bit blunt... the next chapter starts the war trial plot.)
Tim Peggy’s cold eyes seem to penetrate Dean Barbara , Fell directly on Adam, and the anger in it made Adam chill, but he knew that he was safe, and simply hovered behind the dean silently.
Tim Peggy also revealed the true body of the elements, but in the end he did nothing, but took Monica out of the ground, without leaving even a ruthless word, and flew outside the tower. go with.

"In fact, you didn’t have to worry about it, Tim Peggy would never dare to kill you." After the dust settled on the duel, Tim Peggy took The only surviving apprentice, Monica, left Moldo Academy directly, and Adam followed Dean Barbara back to her office.
"Because of the Council of Mages regulations?"
President Barbara nodded: "Yes, there are few regulations in the council, but the more so, the less the existing regulations Mage dare to violate it, even his first magic is just a bluff, otherwise you simply won't have a chance to escape."
Adam recalled the situation just now, knowing that the head of Dao Academy was right. Yes, the feeling after the front is locked is too terrifying. Adam suddenly thought of Anti-mage: "Will he..."
"No." Barbara Court He said categorically, then looked at Adam, who was puzzled, and gave an explanation: "First, the reason why he was angry is not how much he cares about the life and death of the apprentice, but more because of the loss of face. Second, the war trial is very difficult. It’s about to begin. The trial is watched by the True Spirit archmage. As long as you pass the trial to promote the mage, your soul will be uploaded to the magic net. No mage dares to risk angering all True Spirits to sneak attack a battle. Mage."
The Dean of Barbara personally handed Adam a drink and asked Adam to try it.
Adam hesitated to see the purple blisters in the cup, and the hot boiling drink was a little bit hesitant. After tentatively taking a sip, he found that the weird drink tasted very good, and he quickly filled it after the liquid was taken in. Consumed spirit strength, Adam eyes shined, drank the drink in one fell swoop.
Adam thanked Dean Barbara, and then asked, "Excuse me, when will the war trial begin?"
Dean Barbara pointed to the seal on his chest:" Don’t worry, it’s good for you to stop properly. Although knowledge represents power, how to use power requires a process of exercise. I have seen your magic, formidable power is very good, but I think you can do more Okay, isn’t it?"
Adam admits that what the dean said makes sense, but it doesn’t apply to him. For him, the thread in his mind is optimized all the time, just on a whim. The new magic used has been revised many times in the short period of conversation. If the duel happens again, he can guarantee that no one of Monte Carlo's apprentices will leave alive.
But he immediately got the news he wanted to know. Dean Barbara smiled and said to him: "Waiting for two years, two years later within the Five Elements Saint Tower area, all the Academy has Qualified apprentices will conduct joint trials under the arrangement of Saint Tower."

After receiving good news from the dean, Adam went to the Academic Department to submit it. With his papers and some relatively crude spell rune groups, after walking out of the tower, he saw a group of people waiting outside.
In addition to the assistants and Elliott in the lab, William and Frank, who hadn't seen them in a long time, were also present.
"Let's go." After Adam said two words, he flew to the Academy with everyone behind him.
There is no funeral and no cemetery. After the death of apprentices, most of them are incinerated directly by magic. James is no exception. Under everyone’s attention, Adam takes James out of the portable space. The body was suspended in the air.
Adam waved his hand gently, and the raging flames ignited on the corpse. Accompanied by a breeze from nowhere, the ashes of ash-gray flew toward Heaven and Earth.
Everyone bowed gently, as a farewell to this old friend.
———
There was nothing to say all the way, everyone separated in the Academy, the assistants went to enjoy the vacation, and Adam returned to the Academy with Frank.
"Are you in a good state now?" Adam asked strangely.
Faced with Adam Frank, there was nothing to conceal, and he lifted the cloak covering him directly, revealing his fully mechanically modified body except for the head, and opened his mouth to make a weird voice: "Indeed, Mage Keno The adult’s research has encountered some problems. I originally wanted to ask you for help. Didn’t expect to hear the news of James’ death."
James is dead, and neither of them will be there. Wasting time to show me nostalgia for him, Adam felt the weakness of Frank’s body like a flesh and blood body, and said: "Lack of power?"
"Yes, that's the problem. The battery you made is already There is no way to provide enough energy. I now have to replace the battery three times a day to maintain the consumption of the most basic actions."
"What did Mage Keno say?"
Frank from the cloak He took out a few batteries, opened the baffle to replace it, and said: "Lord Mage thought about replacing part of the energy with magic power, but it is very poorly compatible with this mechanical body built entirely on electrical energy. He heard that your The research has made new progress, so let me ask."
Adam then knows why Frank is so coincidental. It seems that the message transmission between mage is very fast: "This problem is not difficult to solve. , You can go back and wait, and I will tell you the result."
Because the two signed a contract before, Adam did not hesitate to invest in Frank. Once Frank is promoted to mage with new energy, he The benefits will be even greater than Frank himself.
———
The next two years are calm and tranquil, and there are no waves. Adam will no longer accept new assistants, and the old assistants will no longer after the contract expires. Renewing the contract, Adam has become more low-key than before. Every day he just perfects the original spell rune group and creates new magic in the laboratory, and rarely walks out of the laboratory.
On one day when the two-year deadline was approaching, a person whom he had not seen for a long time came to his laboratory.
"It’s nice to see you again, Lord Mage Victor."
It is Mage Victor’s Avatar who is here. He himself is fighting on a different plane, and his soul is connected. Make him murderous aura exposed.
He stepped forward to patted Adam's shoulder: "Don't call me an adult, you are already a member of mage, you only need to call me Mage Victor from now on."
Adam is kind and good.
"Are you ready? Your war trial is about to begin."
"Of course, I can't wait."
