New York Sanctuary, Magic Training Room.
In the spacious training room, Kaecilius looked at the seven novice sorcerers in front of him with a serious expression.
"Tell me again, where did you go wrong?"
"I'm sorry, instructor, we were wrong. We shouldn't have separated in an unknown environment without permission, and we shouldn't have thought that the instructor was there and relaxed our minds, leading us into that situation."
John and the other sorcerers shouted loudly in unison. Their foreheads were covered with sweat, and their sorcerer robes were soaked.
God knows, three days ago, because of carelessness, the group was almost wiped out.
After coming back, instructor Kaecilius looked gloomy and had a very serious attitude towards them, with the word "Pathetic" written on his face.
As punishment for their near annihilation, Kaecilius assigned them an intense training regimen, from the number of magic spells to the intensity of actual combat, which made them miserable.
It can be said that 24 hours a day, excluding eating and sleeping, most of their time was spent training.
Finally, today, they can be relieved.
"Again, you made a mistake."
Kaecilius' serious voice echoed in the training room again.
"I'm sorry, instructor, we were wrong. We shouldn't have separated in an unknown environment without permission, and we shouldn't have thought that the instructor was there and relaxed our minds, leading us into a desperate situation."
Hearing the shouts of the sorcerers in unison, Kaecilius's serious expression softened slightly.
But immediately, with a cold face, he ordered again: "You are all trained under me."
"I hope you can learn a lesson the next time you carry out a mission. The enemy is not a fool. When he sees many people, he will naturally set a trap. If you expect him to fight directly with seven of you by himself, you might as well expect thunder from the sky and Vishanti to directly destroy reality for you. I can't be with you every time. Next time, a similar situation occurs, I might have to collect your bodies."
Towards the end, Kaecilius's tone became more serious.
The faces of all the sorcerers also became solemn, and they had not forgotten it. Last time, if it weren't for Master Lockhart and the giant snake, the instructor would have collected their corpses.
Then, Kaecilius looked at the sorcerers who nodded heavily. His face softened, and he said, "This training is to remind you of the dangers you will face. Next time you go on a mission, I hope to see you come back alive and intact."
Hearing this, all the sorcerers nodded. They didn't want to die.
Afterwards, Kaecilius gave a few instructions and turned to leave.
Seeing the instructor leave the training room, all the sorcerers slumped to the ground, wiped the sweat from their foreheads, and then used cleaning magic on themselves to suck out all the sweat from their clothes and dry them again.
"Mitchell, how do you feel? Are you okay?" John asked the slightly thin sorcerer Mitchell, who was slumped on the floor next to him.
"Fortunately, the instructor knew that my physical fitness was the worst, so he just pushed me to the limit of my body," Mitchell laughed at himself.
"Stop talking about me, how are you?" Mitchell asked the sorcerer next to him.
"I'm about the same as you. The instructor's eyes are too sharp. Even though the amount is greater than yours, it's still pushed to the limit of my body," Yuno replied weakly.
"If I had to say who had it the worst, it would be John. This time, he's in a terrible state."
Yuno said, and Mitchell nodded in agreement. The two of them looked at John, who was lying directly on the floor, motionless.
As the captain, he has an unshirkable responsibility for this operation.
Kaecilius had the most serious and demanding attitude towards John. When training, he pushed John directly towards breaking the limits of the human body.
In short, if Kaecilius doesn't teach John a profound lesson this time, he will be an instructor for nothing.
All seven sorcerers almost died, and the batch of fresh blood that the New York Sanctuary had just recruited would have been gone.
It doesn't matter if he is a fool, what is most scary is that the captain is a fool and leads everyone on the road to death.
When he thought of this, Kaecilius almost couldn't hold back the anger in his heart.
Now John was lying on the ground, staring at the ceiling, only his chest rising and falling as he breathed heavily.
In this mission, he felt that he was completely stupid. He had no objection to the rigorous training of the instructor. Instead, he welcomed the rigorous training to eliminate the fear in his heart.
Fortunately, no one died. If even one had died, he would have blamed himself.
If they had all died, he wouldn't know what to do.
After a while, John regained his strength, stood up, and said apologetically to all the sorcerers, "I'm sorry, this time I bear the heaviest responsibility and put everyone in danger."
Hearing this, all the sorcerers waved their hands and comforted him, "The enemy was too cunning this time, and they even used technological weapons."
They also knew that according to normal combat standards, nothing would have happened to the seven of them.
But the Dormammu believer who appeared this time turned out to be a technology tycoon.
After investigation, it was found that the other party not only spent money to buy people and performed a large number of blood sacrifices but also used technological weapons.
Who would have thought of this?
Moreover, even the instructor, Master Lockhart, was almost trapped.
John was really not to blame for what happened this time. If it were them, they might have been tricked.
Of course, the most important thing is that everyone is safe and sound. This is the most important thing.
After all, they had a good relationship before. They studied together, trained together, and fought together. The friendship was relatively strong.
Seeing everyone comforting him, John felt a little more comfortable. He thought about it and said, "Is there anything you want?"
"You can ask for anything, I'm treating you guys. Just use it as a way to vent your inner stress."
Speaking of this, John laughed at himself, "I'm still a little scared inside."
When the sorcerers heard this, their eyes lit up. Someone treating them was a good thing.
"I think the Hungarian Wilson bar we went to last time was good."
"Let's go take a dip in the hot springs of the Rotorua volcano. I've been very tired these past few days."
"How about going to Asia for a big meal? I feel good about the food there."
John looked at the sorcerers sitting cross-legged on the floor, discussing traveling around the world, and didn't take it seriously.
As sorcerers of Kamar-Taj, the portal is standard.
And they are now in the New York Sanctuary, which has recorded a large number of teleport points from around the world.
Even if they don't know the specific location, they can teleport directly through the New York Sanctuary.
The only thing they have to pay attention to is whether their wallets are enough.
Suddenly, Mitchell next to him said, "I heard that Master Lockhart has opened a Book Cafe, which is specially provided for sorcerers. Do you want to go and check it out?"
