Chapter 144

After a moment of absent-mindedness, Adam and the Devil arrived at the command center hidden in the folds of space. Looking out from the center, they found that it was actually a huge airship.

Adam found a random place to stand, and looked at the scene on Ceylon Island through the porthole and the huge screen.

It was beyond recognition, and it was a scene of devastation.

Those were the two most appropriate words that Adam could think of. The huge crater created by the railgun was clearly visible to the naked eye, and on the screen, there were broken walls everywhere, and there was not a single trace of life in the forest.

The trial apprentices were like a natural disaster, plundering Ceylon Island to the point of extinction.

Adam still remembered that the sorcerers above Level 8 in the various factions of Anti-Mage were not eliminated, but imprisoned. He wondered how they would feel when they returned and saw their home in such a state.

Portals appeared one after another on the airship. One by one, the trial apprentices, or rather, the newly promoted sorcerers, came out in a single file. None of them could maintain their dignity. Although the energy from the advancement made them full of energy, the tattered and bloodstained clothes showed that they had been through a terrible battle.

Probably because of the friendship or conflict that arose from the battle, the surviving trial apprentices stood in different places. They saw Adam, but none of them walked towards him.

"One, two, three … Master, these thirty-six people have all advanced. You're the only one who's still a sorcerer apprentice!" The energy field of the newly promoted sorcerers made the Devil very uncomfortable. It controlled Garfields' huge body and tried to hide behind Adam. It looked very funny.

Adam saw the twins among the crowd. Hayley seemed to want to talk to them, but she was stopped by Shirley.

Adam glanced at them and did not care. He found that everyone except him had advanced. He held the living sealing crystal, wondering if the advancement would affect the trial's evaluation.

"Sister, Adam is there. Why are you stopping me?" Hayley asked Shirley, puzzled.

Shirley was a little troubled. She had protected her sister too well, so much so that her sister's temperament was like a child's, and she did not know the ways of the world. Now everyone knew that Adam was the 'culprit' that caused the trial's trajectory to deviate by a large margin. In the end, only thirty out of a thousand people passed. A large number of friends and companions failed and died. To a certain extent, this was all because of Adam. He had been isolated, and if he showed them kindness now, it would undoubtedly make them into anomalies.

Anomalies usually did not have it easy.

Shirley's voice rang in Hayley's mind. "Don't move. Now is not the time."

Among the War Alliance members, Lilith glanced at Adam with a complicated look in her eyes. Meanwhile, the rest of the War Alliance members were looking at him with cold hostility. What should have been a smooth-sailing trial mission had become a series of ups and downs. Of the thirty-two absolute elites, only less than twenty were still alive. Originally, they should have all passed the trial and obtained the support of the other apprentices so that they could continue to recruit more elites. They should have been able to expand their momentum like a rolling snowball and gain even more benefits. However, because of Adam, not only had their plan failed, their prestige had also been completely destroyed.

"Forget it. The trial is over. We can't do anything to him," Lilith said softly.

"He's just an apprentice. I can fight him and kill him in a head-on battle!" Someone said unhappily.

"That's right. He's just a scum who hides behind the scenes and uses despicable methods."

"Sigh." Lilith sighed silently. She was very disappointed with her companions. Until now, they still did not realize the gap between them and Adam. So many people together were still played in the palm of his hand. As losers, what right did they have to look down on the methods of the winner?

Lilith was a little tired. "Do you see the active crystal seal he's wearing? You should know what that means. "She paused for a moment and said," As long as he wants to, he can become a sorcerer at any time. Are you sure you can kill him? "

Everyone looked at each other. The idea of a duel faded away, but the dissatisfaction in their hearts deepened.

The Devil's sensitivity to emotions was not even comparable to Adam's. It looked at them sneakily and said to Adam in his mind, Master, they seem to be looking for trouble.

Before Adam could reply, a powerful aura descended on the airship, suppressing the energy field of everyone. Then, the silhouettes of several sorcerers suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

"Only thirty-seven people finished the trial? This is the trial with the least number of people in the past thousand years. " As soon as the sorcerer's words fell, the dissatisfaction that everyone tried hard to suppress burst out. A few people stepped forward and pointed at Adam, wanting to blame him, but the sorcerer waved his hand and stopped all voices.

"Alright, I don't want to hear any blame. We all saw your performance in the trial. No one violated the rules set by the Holy Tower. That is to say, everyone's merits are reasonable." The sorcerer's voice was slightly mocking. "You have to learn the sorcerer's way of thinking. Sorcerers never push the blame to others. Becoming a sorcerer through the trial means that you are an adult. Be more mature. Shirking the blame and complaining will only make you look more childish and incompetent."

Although everyone could not speak, judging from their expressions, it was obvious that they were not convinced.

"Merits can be traded. The Holy Tower does not prohibit trading, but none of you thought of this." Everyone's face was pale. The sorcerer pointed at his head and said, "Intelligence and talent allow you to gain knowledge faster than others and give birth to power. But having power does not mean that you can become arrogant. Don't be influenced by power. Learn to think with wisdom."

"The most important thing for you now is to understand what wisdom is."

After the sorcerer finished speaking, he released the seal and the new sorcerers silently returned to the team. Adam was expressionless. Everything that happened just now, whether it was criticism or hostility, did not matter to him.

The sorcerer did not expect his casual words to really give people wisdom. These were just words that he had to say after every trial. It was just that this time, it was especially appropriate.

"Now, control your energy field. We will directly enter The Fifth Element Holy Tower." After the sorcerer finished speaking, he started the airship.

After a short acceleration, the space in front of the airship began to stabilize and a portal opened. Adam's vision turned dark. When it lit up again, he was surrounded by a vast elemental aura. The airship steadily docked in the huge airport of the Holy Tower.
