Chapter 88

Everyone followed the alchemy puppet to the second floor of the Mission Hall. After bowing, Adam took out the crystal skeleton and handed it to Mage Black. Then, he calmly explained the whole process of the mission.

Mage Black summoned the alchemy puppet and ordered it to deliver the crystal skeleton to Victor The Mage. He then patted Corestal's shoulder and said with a smile, "In view of your outstanding performance in completing the Academy's mission …"

Mage Black felt a chill in his heart. Adam did not avoid mentioning the casualties of the civilians in Madeira, but it was obvious that Mage Black did not care at all.

"On behalf of the Academy, I have decided to give you an additional reward in addition to the consumption during the mission."

The four of them were excited when they heard this. They did not expect to receive such a reward.

Mage Black took out a few items and handed them to each of them. "William Alfred, this is a set of runes for an advanced apprentice's fire element spell."

"Ophelia Johnson, in addition to the Potential Explosion Potion, this is the Vitality Potion that the Academy is compensating you with."

"As for you," said Wizard Blake after handing over the magic items to Adam, he muttered to himself, "It's a pity that the academy doesn't have much research on the electric element. You can choose a high-level magic of another element."

Adam did not choose another advanced element spell. He already had a direction for his future experiments, and he believed that he would be able to make a breakthrough soon. It would be a waste of time to study another element now. "Respected Mage Black, can you convert the extra reward into Ether Crystals?"

Mage Black nodded. "Of course, but are you sure you don't want to consider it?"

After Adam confirmed his choice, Mage Black was about to say something, but he suddenly froze in place. Then, he said to Adam, "Victor The Mage wants to see you. Now."

.....

After seeing Victor The Mage again, Adam was even more impressed than before. He could not imagine and calculate how powerful Victor The Mage's true body was. Standing in front of the Mage, Adam did not feel any threat, but his soul was much stronger than before. He could clearly feel the vastness of the Mage's power.

"Good day, Your Excellency Victor The Mage."

After saying this, Adam's vision turned black. When he recovered, he found himself in another room. In front of him was the Mage's avatar, and in his hand was the crystal skeleton.

"Little guy, you've surprised me. It's only been a short time, well, it's only been a short time, and you've already healed your soul injury." Wizard Victor's pupils turned inward, and Adam moved his body unnaturally.

"As expected, you've found the path to advancement."

Adam bowed slightly, waiting for the Dean's instructions.

"My respects to the Moldo Hyperdimensional Mage," Victor The Mage said to Adam. "You should know that the Moldova Tower's overall strength is not very strong."

Adam did not say anything. He did not know what Victor The Mage meant.

"It's not only because of the strength of the Tower Master, but also because of the number of Mages in the Tower and the limited amount of resources allocated by the Holy Tower." Dean Victor frankly said the drawbacks of the Tower.

"The talents of the new blood cultivated by the Academy are generally not high. Until now, the Academy has only cultivated one Hyperdimensional Mage, and it was a free apprentice."

Adam became more and more confused. What did this have to do with him?

Victor The Mage continued, "I hope that you won't be promoted to an official Mage within the next twenty years."

Adam's body froze. He raised his head and looked at the Mage in confusion, hoping for an explanation.

"Don't worry, I don't have any bad intentions. This is also good for you. Every Elemental Holy Tower will organize an apprentice promotion trial every hundred years. After passing this trial and successfully being promoted, the apprentice will join the Holy Tower and become a War Mage. In the Mage Plane, the status of a War Mage is higher than that of a Tower Mage. "

Adam asked, "What does a War Mage mean?"

"War Mages are official Mages who can participate in Planar Expeditions. In Planar Expeditions, as long as you survive, you will be able to obtain resources far beyond that of a Tower Mage. It will be of great help to your future research and promotion."

"Isn't every official Mage able to participate in Planar Expeditions?"

Victor The Mage laughed involuntarily, "Of course not. Planar Expeditions are full of unknown dangers, so the requirements for Mages are very high. Ordinary Mages do not have the qualifications to participate. Praise the great World Guardian Anne Croft. Because of her wisdom, the Mage World has the Weave. "

"Weave?"

"Presided over by the World Guardian and jointly maintained by all Necromancers, it is a huge network that connects the souls of all official Mages who are qualified to become War Mages. War Mages upload their souls into the Weave to resist the rejection of the World Will and protect their souls from being spied on by strange creatures. War Mages can use the Weave to communicate regardless of plane or distance. For now, you only need to know this. As for other uses, if you can pass the trial, you will naturally know. "

Adam's heart surged. Although the name of the Weave was different and the way it was built was different, wasn't it still the Internet?

"The direct selection of War Mages occurs once every hundred years. After that, although you can apply for the test at any time, you will no longer have the qualifications to join the Holy Tower. Therefore, delaying your promotion for a while will be beneficial to you."

Although Adam did not know what benefits he would gain from joining the Holy Tower, it would not be small. But what benefits would it bring to the academy?

After hearing Adam's question, Victor The Mage said, "For the Holy Tower, the successful cultivation of a War Mage will receive a huge reward from the Holy Tower. This reward is comprehensive and its value is much higher than forcing a qualified War Mage to stay in the Holy Tower through a contract. "

Adam liked the open and honest way the Mages talked. They did not force the weak to do as they wished just because they were powerful. There was no conspiracy or hegemony. Instead, they pointed out the pros and cons and let the apprentices choose for themselves.

"Why me?"

Victor The Mage said regretfully, "All War Mages are geniuses who far surpass others at the same stage. In Moldova College, so far, only you have a higher chance of passing the test. The chances of the others are very slim.

Adam bowed humbly and asked, "What is the content of the trial?"

Victor The Mage looked at Adam, "Eliminate the Anti-Mage."
