The story of Holmes, who came from the bottom of Squirrel Street, defeating the noble opera singer made the viewership of the Singers of the World rise again.
The last words of the opera singer named Roja reached the max.
When Josiah used a close-up of his villain's words in front of the Noland audience, the people of Noland almost picked up their hammers and sickles and started a revolution.
Fortunately, the audience had another way to support Holmes, and that was the voting rights in their hands.
But as more and more people of Noland put their attention on the Singers of the World competition, they forgot that today was an important day for Noland.
Today was the annual meeting of the Noland sages. The seven sages who controlled the highest power in Noland would gather together to make a decision that would greatly affect the future development of Noland.
But because the content of the meeting could only be decided by the seven sages, most people chose to find a tavern to sit down and watch the TV program instead of going to the Sage Tower to watch the meeting.
The students of the Krosier High Magic Academy also made the same choice.
In the Great Hall of the Krosier High Magic Academy.
The dean of this high magic academy, one of the seven sages of Noland, a believer of the God of Thunder, Krosier had blue veins bulging on his forehead. He was obviously in a state of extreme anger.
He was standing at the front of the Great Hall. Today, he was going to teach all the students of this high magic academy, and he was also going to present a new inscription that he discovered.
Originally, this was a big enough event for all the spellcasters in Noland to care about. The Great Hall that could accommodate more than three thousand people should be packed.
But …
The yellow-clothed man glanced around. There were only about two hundred spellcasters sitting in the Great Hall, and there were only a few students in the Krosier Magic Academy.
"Where's Sophina?" The yellow-robed man suppressed the anger in his heart and asked a servant below for the location of his disciple.
Sophia was the top student of this advanced magic academy. She had displayed outstanding talent in the Thunder Magic System at a very young age.
This talent allowed this noble girl from the Iron Nation to become the heir of the Yellow Robed One.
However, this wasn't the first time this future Wise One of Noland had been absent from her mentor's lessons!
"He … he went to the Ruhrsk Higher Magic Academy next door." The servant's voice sounded a bit shaky.
Every word and action of this elder seemed to carry the rumbling of thunder. There was even a rumor among the students of the Crosier High Magic Academy that the yellow-robed elder could shoot out lightning from his eyes, and just a glare from him could reduce someone to ashes.
Of course, this was just a rumor, but the yellow-robed man's angry face was really saying, "If you're wrong, prepare to be electrocuted into pieces."
The attendant knew why this sage was so angry. It was because the chief of their academy had been skipping classes recently to go to the neighboring academy. This had also caused the academy to be abuzz with news such as' the chief is going to transfer '.
As for the reason for the transfer …
"Is it because of that damned magic-conducting machine again?"
The yellow-robed man did his best to suppress his anger, and swept his gaze across the empty lecture hall once more.
This situation was also caused by the magic-conducting machine known as the 'television'. The students of the Crosier High Magic Academy had all gone to the neighboring academy to watch the 'television', so of course they didn't have the time to listen to his lecture.
"Today's meeting shall end."
The expected rumbling of thunder did not come. The yellow-robed man chose to leave the lecture hall, leaving behind the servant who heaved a sigh of relief.
After leaving the lecture hall, he glanced in the direction of the neighboring Ruhrsk High Magic Academy and headed towards the center of Noland without a word, where the Philosopher's Tower was located.
… …
The Noland's Philosopher's Council was located at the highest level of the Philosopher's Tower. The 'core' that supplied the entire Noland with mana was right below the Philosopher's Tower.
There were no unnecessary decorations in this simple hall, only a round table and seven stone chairs at the center.
As the host of the meeting, the white-robed man who stayed in the Philosopher's Tower all year round and never cared about the secular world sat at the head of the round table. Only four of the other six sages were present.
"The black-robed and purple-robed sages are still exploring the underground ruins. They have given up their decision-making rights for this meeting. Everyone, please begin." The white-robed man's voice sounded a little weak.
The seven sages of Noland had basically reached the limit of a human's lifespan, and the body of the oldest white-robed man had long since weakened.
"Black and Purple are still underground? It's been two years! Should we choose new sages to replace them? "Someone raised the first topic.
The yellow-robed man listened quietly at the side, until one of the sages mentioned the 'Mana Net' that had recently appeared in Noland.
"Everyone here has used the 'Mana Net' before. What do you think of this new magic?" The white-robed man opened the conversation, his gaze sweeping across every sage present.
"I can't even call this' magic '. It's like a miniature version of the world." As the first user of the Mana Net, the grey-robed man's tone was filled with excitement when he mentioned it. It was as if Columbus had discovered a new continent.
"The Mana Net has redefined the way intelligent beings communicate." An owl suddenly appeared in the grey-robed man's hand as he spoke. He tidied the owl's fur and said, "Although these little fellows will lose their jobs, I have to admit that communication through letters is too inefficient."
"But you can't deny the danger that the Mana Net brings. The person who created it can change the way the Mana Net operates at will." Another sage expressed a different opinion.
The debate about the Mana Net continued for a while, and when it came to the yellow-robed man, the debate finally stopped for a moment.
The yellow-robed man maintained a neutral attitude towards the Mana Net … But when it came to the 'television' magically-guided machine …
"I hope that the 'television' magically-guided machine will appear in Noland," the yellow-robed man said.
"Television?"
"It's a magically-guided machine that can project distant images onto a flat surface. In theory, it seems to change the arrangement of tiny light particles to achieve the effect of forming images." The grey-robed man explained, and then looked at the yellow-robed man beside him, "I also think that this is a great invention. Why do you want to ban it, Crosier?"
"Great? He's making young spellcasters lose their thirst for knowledge! Haven't you noticed? Where have the students been all this time? "The yellow-robed man retorted loudly.
The yellow-robed man's words caused the five seated sages to fall silent. Four of them had established advanced magic academies in Noland, and the situation that the yellow-robed man mentioned had occurred in all four academies.
"This is due to our management, and we shouldn't push the responsibility on the 'television'."
"But the young spellcasters' interest in the television has indeed surpassed their thirst for knowledge!"
After a large number of students skipped classes in the four advanced magic academies, they had already announced several punishment mechanisms. However, there were still some young spellcasters who did not repent, and the most famous of them was the yellow-robed man's heir, Sophina.
"…"
The grey-robed man quietly listened to the discussion of the other sages. Even though he tried his best to steer the topic of television in a positive direction, the yellow-robed man's leadership had led the other sages to believe that the disadvantages of the magically-guided machine outweighed the benefits.
