Chapter 174 The Gray Bone Wizard's Invitation
The word homework is never plural because it never ends. ——The emotion of a certain wizard apprentice at Ashbone Academy.
"Ah..." After Monica finished writing the last word, she collapsed on the chair with some collapse, and her whole body seemed to turn into liquid all of a sudden. If Sally hadn't pulled her up, she might have At this time, Monica had completely flowed under the table.
"Come on, there are still 13 hours before tomorrow's deadline. Well, you still have two homework assignments." On the side, Sally was flipping through the books while looking at her friend who was just about to hang up on the roof to dry. , reminded with some helplessness.Buy bestselling books online
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...I feel now that Mrs. Snezana is actually quite cute. I want to go back..." Monica lay helplessly on the table, looking at the two big piles beside her. His eyes were a little broken due to his homework.
"Who told you that you didn't even write a page the past few days?" Sally added ruthlessly, but still handed her homework to her friend, and took it from Monica's hand as a matter of course. Two magic stones.
With the "job rental service", Sally made a small profit during this period.
However, she acted more restrained. After all, if such a thing was discovered, her scholarship might be ruined.
"By the way, there is a public lecture by Dean Lucian in the afternoon. Are you going to attend it?" Sally took out a pocket watch and checked the time. Then she put away the book and turned to look at Monica aside. All he got in exchange was an even shriller wail from a certain prairie dog.
Sally shook her head helplessly. She didn't want to continue irritating Monica, but quickly left the room and walked towards the cafeteria.
On the wall of a teaching building, Sally saw a somewhat new slogan: "It is prohibited to assign excessive homework..."
"Oh." Sally shook her head helplessly. She herself felt that the amount of homework during the previous period was just right, but when she thought of a certain salted fish who was still crying and making up for her homework, Sally couldn't help but After a slight silence, I felt that the slogan of the academy was not unreasonable.
…
"Good afternoon, Brunotte, have you just come out of the laboratory?" On the way to the classroom, Sally and Brunotte happened to bump into each other.
As the only fifth-level qualification among the new blood, Brunotte naturally received many olive branches from formal wizards and appointed an official wizard as his mentor. So in addition to normal classes, Brunotte also needs to accept some tasks assigned by his instructor.
"Well, Teacher Mondo is quite strict." Brunotte didn't say much, but looked at Sally with some curiosity.
"You should also receive invitations from some formal wizards, right? Why do you feel like you have no interest in becoming a mentor? I heard from Mentor Mondo that although under Dean Lucian's new system, the role of mentors is not that big. But if you can become a disciple, it's better to have a mentor."
"After all, we can't stay inside the academy all the time. Once we go out, without the guidance or protection of a mentor, some situations may arise."
"I know, and thank you for your concern." Sally showed a smile. She naturally had plans for a mentor, but the ones she wanted to be apprenticed to were not formal wizards.
The two chatted and quickly walked into the lecture hall. Taking advantage of the fact that there were not many people in the lecture hall at this time, they occupied two pretty good seats.
As the time for the official start of the open class approached, the originally empty lecture hall gradually became noisy. Even some third-level wizard apprentices hurried over, preparing to listen to Lucian's lesson, which was mainly aimed at first- and second-level wizards. Apprentice level courses.
"Good afternoon, the lesson I am going to teach today is about the in-depth exploration and improvement of wizard models. In this lesson, I will use the simplest wizard model 'Fire Technique' as an example to explain some changes in 'Fire Technique' , as well as some special changes with the help of weapons. Some of the witchcraft models here come from my student Carly, and have received her public permission..."
On the podium, Lucian smiled and looked at the apprentices below who had bright eyes, feeling a sense of satisfaction in his heart. He smiled and began to explain the structure of the basic model of Blazing Fire, and gradually began to deepen.
"Sounds pretty simple." Sally took the quill and wrote and drew in her notebook.
Sally had naturally mastered the simplest witchcraft model, Blazing Fire, so when Lucian explained the composition of the model, she still felt that the class was a bit boring.
However, as Lucian went deeper and deeper, Sally gradually became a little fussy from being relaxed at the beginning. The draft paper spread on her lap was now covered with countless sketches. She raised her head in confusion and looked at At this time, Lucian, who was still talking about the expansion content of unknown number on the podium, couldn't help but scratch her hair, and then put down her quill with some helplessness.
And when Lucian's content gradually deepened and reached the level of Torch Fire Technique and Change, Sally completely gave up treatment at this time. This content may be something that third-level wizard apprentices need to digest carefully, and it is not at all She, a newbie, can now digest it.
It was just that she felt the knowledge but could not absorb and digest it, which made Sally extremely painful.
Next to her, Brunotte's expression at this time was somewhat similar to Sally's, but he was still reluctantly taking notes, but the content in the notes was more or less messy, and could only be regarded as some kind of abstract graffiti.
"Okay, that's it for this open class." After Lucian finally demonstrated a series of witchcraft effects from blazing to torch, he gently pressed his chest with his left hand, saluted with wizard etiquette, and then quietly left the stage. , leaving only the wizard apprentices in the venue who were either in a daze or deep in thought to digest it quietly.
And after a short while after he left, applause came from inside the lecture hall. "Teacher Lucian, what you just said was so good. I feel like my understanding of Blazing Rockets has deepened." Carly ran out from the side with a smile, and on her side, Eddie was still following her. Sen.
"Edison, have you finished your practice today?" Lucian looked at Edison and asked.
"There are still two sets of practice left. Senior sister said later that she is willing to cooperate with me." Edison nodded. As his realm of body-refining wizards improved, his body became more and more burly. At this time, he was even taller than Lucian. Half a head higher.
However, at the same time as his body changed, his character also became more and more calm. Although his words became less and less, he said every word very seriously and meant what he said. Even to Lucian, it seemed a bit "rigid".
However, this kind of character also has an advantage, that is, as long as he agrees to the tasks assigned to Edison by Lucian, there is no need to supervise his completion. At this point, Addison is even more reassuring than Carly.
Thinking of this, Lucian couldn't help but look at Carly aside.
"Teacher Lucian, I feel like I've reached a bottleneck now. What I have to do now is to find that slightest opportunity for breakthrough." Carly muttered and began to explain why she had let herself go during this period.
The corner of Lucian's mouth twitched slightly, then he raised his hand and gave Carly a chestnut that was neither light nor heavy.
Carly squatted down slightly and covered her head, but soon she thought of something that was enough to divert Lucian's attention.
"Teacher Lucian, Winterfort has written back, saying that they will send an exchange group led by official wizards to visit us. However, they require us to fulfill our sincerity in this 'academic exchange' first." Li looked at Lucian.
"I understand, there is no problem with sincerity." Lucian nodded slightly, and then he looked at Edison aside, with a flash of expectation in his eyes.
And just when Lucian was about to give regular guidance to Carly and Edison, he suddenly felt a strong shadow force beginning to gather not far in front of him.
"Carly, you go to the training ground and wait for me first. I have some things to do here." The smile on Lucian's face slowly disappeared. After he told Carly, he quickly rushed towards the source of the power. .
Soon, he saw a shadow python emerging from the shadow layer.
"Sir." Lucian lowered his head slightly and showed his respect to the gray-bone wizard represented by this shadow python.
"Lucian, if I guess correctly, you should have mastered a certain level of second-level wizard combat power through Helen, right?" The shadow python began to squirm quickly, and soon formed an image of a gray-bone wizard that should be somewhat illusory. , he looked at Lucian with a smile, his attitude seemed very kind.
"Yes." Lucian nodded lightly, and at the same time he had some guesses about the purpose of the Gray Bones Wizard coming to him this time.
"I am currently exploring a special ruins with Mr. de la Torre. It is currently in the preparation stage. However, if we conduct a formal exploration in the future, we will need a second-level wizard with excellent detection capabilities... ..." The gray-bone wizard looked at Lucian with a smile.
"I feel that a nightmare creature that can be called 'immortal' in some aspects is very suitable. Don't worry, I am making invitations on behalf of Mr. de la Torre. In terms of remuneration, you can choose these..."
The gray-bone wizard waved his hand, and countless shadow air currents flew out from his body, and finally gathered into a dense list.
Some of the resources on these lists made Lucian jealous.
"Dean, I wonder what the ruins are about?" Lucian asked cautiously, suppressing his desire for these materials.
"There are some secrets involved. Okay, don't ask any more questions. There are some things about high-level wizards that you know won't do much good." The gray-bone wizard refused to say more, but just made it vague.
"Don't worry, we can sign a contract. When cracking the ruins, you only need to control the nightmare creatures in the safest place to explore."
The somewhat illusory figure of the gray-bone wizard smiled and tried his best to persuade Lucian.
Although Lucian was calm on the surface, many thoughts emerged in his heart.
A higher level wizard?
Since there is a third-level wizard De La Torre involved, then what the Gray Bones Wizard is talking about should not be a third-level wizard, but at least a fourth-level wizard, which is the ruins of the Dawn Wizard level.
It's just that at the moment when Carly felt that the secret realm of the Kingdom of Clouds was touched, the appearance of this secret realm of the Dawn Wizard level was really too much of a coincidence.

Chapter 175 Big move, Carly's thinking
"Dean, I'll think about it for a few days." Lucian maintained his apparent calmness.
"This matter does need to be properly considered. There is no rush. Anyway, the preliminary preparation will take at least two or three years." The gray-bone wizard smiled and nodded, looking extremely tolerant.
But he soon changed the subject and talked about another thing.
"By the way, I remember that there is an idle wizard organization called the 'Bone Alliance' active on the west side of Ashbone Academy? I remember hearing that they intercepted our academy's transport airship. During this time, they also Are you active?"
"The Bone Alliance?" Lucian frowned slightly when he heard the name, but with the excellent memory of a formal wizard, he quickly found information about this wizard organization.
This is a wandering wizard organization. You can even call them a group of wandering thieves who have mastered wizard training methods. The leader is an official wizard who drives a bone airship and wanders around the borders of several big wizard organizations, relying on robbery to survive.
"This wizarding organization is still there, and its leader is still Butters Van Dijk, who calls himself 'Captain Sue'..."
"Very good." The gray-bone wizard looked at Lucian with a smile, "I feel that this wizard organization has affected the development of the college, so... destroy it, and then capture 'Captain Sue' Butters Van Dijk alive."
Destroyed the Bone Alliance? Because it affects the development of the college?
Hearing the Gray Bones Wizard's instructions and reasons, Lucian felt a little ridiculous.
Although the Bone Alliance is a small wizard organization that survives through robbery, they are not actually very harmful to the Ashbone Academy. To a certain extent, the two sides have reached a tacit understanding and balance that goes without saying.
With the Bone Alliance and some micro wizard organizations as buffers, there is a gray isolation zone between Ashes Academy and the tower, and this gray isolation zone is even more beneficial to Ashes Academy.
"There is no need to worry about the Bone Alliance's revenge or the Bones' ability to escape."
The Gray Bones Wizard looked at Lucian, who was bowing his head in deep thought. He seemed to think that Lucian was having trouble with the flexible flying ability and escape speed of the Bones. He waved his hand gently, and suddenly countless small shadow pythons emerged from the ground of the Gray Bones Academy. Finally, the snake mother that Lucian had seen before in the underground library gathered together in front of the Gray Bones Wizard.
At this time, the latter was holding a scepter in his hand.
The scepter is made of a special jade-like arm bone, and a gray-white crystal is inlaid in the original hand bone position. The scepter itself attracts the surrounding shadow airflow to gather around it, and even Lucian felt a chill that seemed to come from his soul.
"This is the scepter of gray bones, and it is also the most precious witchcraft tool in the academy." The wizard of gray bones smiled, and at the same time controlled the snake mother, and handed the scepter to Lucian. "While you are the dean of the college, you can borrow this scepter for free."
"As long as you carry the ash bone scepter and perform the internal sealing witchcraft [ash bone sealing technique], let alone a Bones airship, even a real wizard airship will lose most of its flight capabilities. The wizards above will definitely be weakened by the influence of the sealing technique..."
The Gray Bones Wizard introduced to Lucian in detail this powerful witchcraft tool that could be used by some second-level wizards. However, the meaning of his words was also very obvious, that is, he urged Lucian to take people to destroy the Bone Alliance as soon as possible and capture the "accuser" alive. Captain Dead" Butters.
After taking the scepter, Lucian nodded slightly, "I will handle this matter as soon as possible."
"Yes." The gray-bone wizard smiled and nodded, seeming to express his approval of Lucian's attitude. Then with a crash, his somewhat illusory body instantly collapsed and turned into wisps of shadow air that quickly dissipated.
"It's really..." Lucian silently stared at the position where the Gray Bones Wizard and the Snake Mother disappeared, then looked at the Gray Bones Scepter in his right hand, and shook his head helplessly.
Lucian felt that under the control of the third-level wizard De La Torre, the wizard situation on the entire continent was about to be turbulent again.
However, the encirclement and suppression of the Bone Alliance required some advance preparations, and during this period, the Winterhold exchange team promoted by Lucian had already received news of their departure.
"Teacher Lucian, after Winterhold received the gift from you, teacher, their exchange team has now set off. Well, I heard that the team is led by three official wizards. It is considered a relatively high-level exchange visit in Winterhold. Already..."
Carly, who was responsible for liaison with Winterfort, ran into Lucian's office happily with a letter with a mental power mark attached.
Lucian couldn't help but have a smile on his face. He had been waiting for this matter for almost a month and a half, and now he finally had a satisfactory result.
..."I really don't know what those guys from Ashbone Academy have in mind." A huge whale flapped its huge fins like a pair of flesh wings, floating above the clouds and mist with the help of magic power and air current fluctuations. .
Inside the whale's body, the original head position has been transformed into a room-sized cabin. Three wizards from Winterhold and a dozen wizard apprentices are currently living in this whale. In the body of the Liyun Whale, with the help of this extraordinary magical beast that had been transformed into a biological vehicle, it quickly moved towards the area where Ashbone Academy was located.
Just like most elemental wizards look down on body-refining wizards and despise the latter as "barbarians", in the eyes of these body-refining wizards, those elemental wizards who only know how to "play tricks" are not actually in line with their expectations. Likes it, and believes that that kind of "sizing up the situation" is actually the exclusive manifestation of a coward.
In particular, the elemental witchcraft that the Academy of Ashes is good at is biased towards life-saving, sneak attacks and indirect combat shadow and death-type witchcraft, which is even more inconsistent with the "good man" aesthetic of Winterhold. It is precisely because of this difference in the cultivation system that the official wizards on both sides are actually in a state of distaste for each other.
In this unprecedented "ice-breaking operation" of the Ashes and Bones Academy, the reason why Winterfort sent three official wizards was that, except Iceberg Woolf because he was curious about the Ashes and Bones Academy, the other two official wizards were I came with the attitude of criticizing and watching the fun.
In their view, the reason why Lucian invited them for so-called academic exchanges was to some extent a low profile, a reflection of their lack of confidence in the path of elemental wizards that the Ashbone Academy has always adhered to.
However, among the three official wizards, Woolf was not as prejudiced as his two companions. On the contrary, he had a kind of good-natured curiosity about this exchange visit to Ashbone Academy. At the same time, he also has a certain interest in the methods of elemental wizards.
"Actually, I feel that this exchange is actually a good thing. After all, some auxiliary elemental witchcraft is actually also useful to us..." Woolf wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the other two body refining wizards. Interrupt directly.
"Okay, Woolf, instead of believing in those flashy witchcraft, it's better to spend your time tempering your body." Saud patted his shoulder, and then handed him a bottle of the ones near the ice field. Wodeka, which is brewed only by the country, seemed to be a sign for him to drink some strong alcohol to sober up.
Woolf shook the bottle helplessly, then uncorked the bottle and took two sips.
"Isn't this Wodeka more effective than some kind of blessing witchcraft?" Saud took back the bottle and muttered as he started to drink for himself.
Woolf:…

"Sally, that's great! Our grade's basic runes class is suspended tomorrow!" Early in the morning, Sally heard the cheers of her friend Monica.
When she turned her head, she saw Monica sprinting towards her bed at a speed of 100 meters, and in the next second, a "big dumpling" appeared on her bed.
Sally's mouth twitched, but she still picked up a certain salted fish that she was about to salt and marinate. "No, please explain clearly first, why is the basic runes class canceled tomorrow?"
"Hey, the exchange team from Winterfort is coming tomorrow. Teacher Carly will be responsible for presiding over related matters, so she simply gave us a week's leave." Monica's face was full of smiles at this time, and she spread her arms lazily. On his bed, his whole body seemed to have been completely deboned.
"Oh, Teacher Carly is good at everything, but the classes are too strict and the homework assignments are too difficult. Did you know? There are already apprentices who care about Teacher Carly as the Silver Devil behind her back... Well, in short, the exchange student program Long live!"
"Long live the exchange student program!"
"Long live the Silver Demon!"
When Carly passed by the first-year dormitory area of Ashbone College, she could hear ghostly cries and howls coming from inside the dormitory from time to time. She looked down at the pile of homework she had prepared in her hand and fell into deep thought.
"Forget it, just think of it as a question to think about. If you are interested, take a look. If you are not interested, forget it." Carly muttered. She felt that these new batch of wizards seemed to be a little too loose. It seems to go from one extreme to another all at once.
"Perhaps, I need to mention this matter to Tutor Lucian." Carly silently wrote down the matter. She felt that if the current atmosphere continued, these new wizards might be happy within the academy, but they They also lost the consciousness and ability of the wizard apprentices from the Ashbones Academy to fight and fight.
"This won't work for a long time..." Carly thought as she found the dormitory where several "class representatives" lived, and then knocked on the door.
And the moment she opened the door, Monica's cheers in the room stopped abruptly.
