The Lord of Ashes

It was not only the apprentice team of 100 people that surprised Thain.

Almost all the Dark Fire Holy Tower Academy apprentices who entered the trial space performed admirably.

Their purpose is not to defend the status quo, but to fight continuously and take the initiative.

Except for the Xingyang Holy Tower apprentice in the next area who was stabbed and suffered great misfortune.

Another apprentice area of ​​the Pulun Holy Tower adjacent to the Dark Fire Holy Tower was also disgraced.

In particular, the apprentices of the Holy Tower of Dark Fire are extremely ruthless in their attack style. Those who dare to go to the next area to cause trouble are basically ruthless people who know how to kill in the academy war.

Being so disturbed by the Holy Tower of Dark Fire, the other apprentices of the Holy Tower Academy either had to bite the bullet and rush to fight, or they were eliminated in a confused way.

The regional Holy Tower Academy war has only been started for a month, and there are frequent spatial fluctuations of apprentices leaving the secret trial realm.

Affected by the arrogant style of the Holy Tower of Dark Fire, Thain, who was also in a special area of ​​the trial space, was frequently looked at sideways by the third-level magicians from other surrounding colleges.

The tower owners high in the sky didn't know what they were thinking at this time.

With the Dark Fire Holy Tower Apprentice Area as the hub, this Apprentice War is overall faster-paced than previous ones.

In peacetime, each war lasts about three years. If it lasts longer, it may be extended to five or six years.

But in this regional college war, many deans have speculated that the outcome may be decided within two years.

…

Different from Thain's good mood, the faces of other third-level magicians of Holy Tower Academy, especially the deans, gradually became a little solemn after the academy war started.

The performance of the regional Holy Tower College War is directly related to the abilities and teaching quality of these deans.

The major holy towers spend a lot of money to hire them, not to support a group of idlers.

If the final results are really bad, not to mention what the tower master will think of them, even the deans themselves will feel uncomfortable.

Of course, the details of the war are not always favorable to the Holy Tower of Dark Fire.

This group of little guys are inspired by Thain's last-place elimination mechanism and perform more dangerous academy tasks all year round. He has made outstanding achievements in the fields of small-scale team battles and individual combat.

But once it comes to a confrontation between hundreds, thousands, or even larger-scale legions, the shortcomings of the Dark Fire Holy Tower apprentices are highlighted.

There are only 15,000 apprentices. Compared to the nearly 200,000 apprentices in the entire secret trial area, the number is still too small.

Not to mention, it is impossible for all members of the Holy Tower of Dark Fire to be elite, and the largest proportion of them are still relatively weak low-level apprentices and mid-level apprentices.

Apprentices with advanced levels of strength and above are in the minority in any Holy Tower Academy.

As the war continued to advance, the shortcomings of the Dark Fire Holy Tower's low number of participants and lack of large-scale teamwork experience gradually became apparent.

If we say that at the beginning, the apprentices of the Holy Tower of Dark Fire could catch other apprentices of the same level at the Holy Tower Academy by surprise.

But when the war lasted for more than half a year, after paying a certain price, the major Holy Tower academies gradually figured out the war mode of the Dark Fire Holy Tower apprentices, and gradually adapted to the opponent's raids, and then derived a variety of different tactics. to respond.

Growing through constant training is the quality that every qualified magician in the wizarding world should have.

The performance of other Holy Tower Academy apprentices, as well as the enthusiasm of a few genius-level experts among them, also made Thain's eyes shine.

I don’t know if it’s the Dark Fire Holy Tower’s bad luck or the other Holy Tower colleges’ luck.

In this regional Holy Tower Academy War, although there was no legendary genius-level apprentice who could surpass two levels in a row, there was a desperate-level apprentice who was comparable to Thain.

This despairer-level apprentice comes from the Holy Tower of Waves.

After the professional judgment of Thain and other deans of the Holy Tower Academy, this little guy with the strength of a quasi-mage can indeed emit powerful first-level magic.

Some of the opponent's magic types are like light element magic, because the shape of the magic he releases is like an elliptical light wave.

But in terms of the specific killing effect, it is not the energy burning or penetration of ordinary light magic, but the strange "cutting" nature.

That little guy also named his magic move "Nimbus Slash".

The achievements of this little guy named Grot in this field of magic made even Thain, a third-level magician, unable to help but admire him. Thane recalled the Eye of the Sun magic he created during his apprenticeship,

The Eye of the Sun will definitely surpass this little guy's Halo Slash in terms of attack coverage and damage range. Even Thain's effect would be doubled with the bonus of the Eye of the Sun mask.

However, in the field of fixed-point killing capabilities and single-type attacks, Thain's Eye of the Sun magic is probably inferior to this little guy's "Light Wheel Slash".

Geniuses can appear anywhere, and they can't just appear under one's own command.

This Desperate-level apprentice, whom Thain also admired very much, eliminated two top apprentices from the Holy Tower of Dark Fire, which put a stop to the westward expansion of the Black Fire Holy Tower's apprentice team.

[A novel app that has been running stably for many years, comparable to the old book-chasing tool, and a source-changing app used by old bookworms,]

The apprentice area of ​​the Pulun Holy Tower is located just to the west of the apprentice area of ​​the Dark Fire Holy Tower.

‏​​‎​‏‎‏‏‎‎​‏‏‎‎On the east side of the Dark Fire Holy Tower Apprentice Area is the most powerful Xingyang Holy Tower Apprentice Area.

This is why Thane lamented that the Holy Tower of Dark Fire was a bit unlucky this time.

If they weren't sandwiched between these two apprentice areas, the group of "screaming" apprentices trained by Thane in the Holy Tower of Dark Fire would definitely shine even more dazzlingly in this academy war.

At the same time, it is also difficult for Dark Fire and other three powerful holy towers with fifth-level tower masters to accept that this year's Desperate Apprentice did not appear in their three holy towers, but appeared in a tower where the tower master's strength was only It is the fourth-level Pulagon Holy Tower.

The Wavering Holy Tower also participated in the operation against the Dark Fire Holy Tower, but Thain himself did not have much conflict with the magicians of the Wavering Holy Tower.

Seeing that the apprentice named Grot eliminated two of his most powerful apprentices one after another, Thain couldn't help but take the initiative to strike up a conversation and ask the magicians of the Wavering Holy Tower about the origin of this desperate apprentice.

The person who answered Thain's question was the dean of the Bolun Holy Tower Academy, a middle-aged magician wearing a plaid magic robe.

Under the introduction of the dean of the third-level great magician, Thane suddenly learned that this Grote apprentice was the young disciple accepted by the master of the Polun Holy Tower fifteen years ago.

It is not unusual for a fourth-level magician to cultivate a despairer-level apprentice.

However, it is extremely rare for a tower master to accept a magic apprentice who is not even a level one as his disciple.

Thain became Lu Lianman's disciple after the academy war ended.
