In the great hall of the wizard tower, Lu Zhiyu glanced at the number of apprentices that were about the same as the previous year. Of these people, a small half were recommended by the previous year's apprentices. The previous year's apprentices were the best talents that Lu Zhiyu had selected from all over the world, including Frank and Levis.
However, this batch of apprentices was much weaker. Many of them had already begun to meditate. Some of them were created and improved by the wizards who had graduated, while others were using the meditation techniques taught by the wizard tower. Lu Zhiyu took a look and found that it would be good if there were one or two apprentices who were at Uruk's level.
Lu Zhiyu did not say a word. Just like the previous batch of apprentices, he presided over the entrance ceremony. Watching all the apprentices leave the castle hall happily, Lu Zhiyu looked at the nine apprentices sitting on both sides of the hall, led by Frank.
Everyone lowered their heads, not daring to meet Lu Zhiyu's gaze. The atmosphere was very depressing. The candles in the castle flickered, and no one spoke for a long time. Frank was the first to stand up. He took a deep breath and bowed to Lu Zhiyu.
"Teacher, Levis came to me, but I could not stop him. This is all my fault," Frank said.
"How many people died? Frank? "
Frank did not dare to look at Lu Zhiyu's eyes. "Levis, Henry, Agra, Dellas, Blair …"
Frank read out a long list of names. Lu Zhiyu was very familiar with every one of them. Levis and Henry were even the first batch of teachers that Lu Zhiyu had chosen. Levis was the most talented and creative wizard after Frank. He was also the second person after Frank to become a level three wizard.
"In addition, the entire Church of Light, and even other countries that the Church of Light cannot reach, have begun to suppress us wizards. Even the orc countries do not welcome us. The saints of the Church of Light have also created the first generation of priests, who have mastered extraordinary powers. They are hunting and searching for us everywhere.
"We can only hide like mice under the sun. Although they don't have enough priests, and unless a real saint comes, they won't be a big threat to us. But because of Levis's behavior, we've been ostracized by everyone. Be it the nobles or the commoners, no one welcomes us."
Borl still wanted to say something, but Lu Zhiyu shook his head and said, "Borl, sit down. I have nothing to say. Levis's death is fair. People have to pay the price for their own stupidity. But Levis couldn't bear this price, so he can only pay with his life."
"I know that some of you still agree with Levis and Henry's methods, but I also hope that everyone here will consider carefully whether they can afford to pay the price before doing something important."
Compared to Levis, Lu Zhiyu liked Borl more. Levis's mentality was too dark, utilitarian, and impatient. Lu Zhiyu couldn't say that his thinking and reasoning were wrong, but Lu Zhiyu didn't like him.
On the other hand, Borl was very similar to Lu Zhiyu in terms of personality and other aspects. He was cautious, optimistic, and rational. He did things in an orderly manner, and didn't rush for results. He planned his life reasonably. But there were also some things that were different from Lu Zhiyu. He didn't have Lu Zhiyu's willingness to gamble, and he followed the rules too strictly.
Lu Zhiyu looked at the nine students, who were wearing white wizard robes. They were the first batch of mentors of the wizard tower. He nodded and said, "From tomorrow onwards, you will be teaching. Apart from the highest floor of the wizard tower, I will give you access to all of the wizard tower.
"The laboratories on the tenth and eleventh floors will be managed by Borl. When I'm not around, Borl will take over as the tower master.
"The botanical garden on the ninth floor will be managed by Wendy and Wofter. Both of you will be tutors for botany and mind power applications.
"The beast prison on the eighth floor will be managed by Uruk …
"Akkad will be in charge of alchemy."
"…"
Lu Zhiyu didn't even get to a name before he stood up. After assigning tasks, Lu Zhiyu was ready to leave. Borl asked, "Tutor, aren't you going to stay in the tower?"
Lu Zhiyu only appeared in the tower a few times a month, so Borl and the others were used to it. Lu Zhiyu nodded and said, "From now on, you will be in charge of the tower. I will come back often."
Wendy stood up and asked, "Tutor, where are you going?"
Lu Zhiyu thought for a moment, then replied, "My next step is to go to the astral world, outside of Maria's World. Outside of this world, there is a huge astral world, which is like a sky full of stars. Maria's World is just one of the small worlds, so it's not eye-catching."
Lu Zhiyu looked at the students present and said, "If one day, you can become a level seven mythical wizard, I will take you to the astral world to have a look. Only level seven mythical wizards can be the real starting point of a wizard. Only by reaching that level can you survive in the astral world."
Lu Zhiyu's words immediately caused the students to start discussing. For them, Maria's World was already unbelievably big. There were many continents, as well as the unexplored deep sea. Even if they spent all their lives, they would never be able to explore the entire world. Moreover, there were a lot of unknown secrets hidden in this world, which were worth studying and exploring for the rest of their lives.
They had never thought of the scene outside of Maria's World. The so-called astral world and the plane were unheard of. In their eyes, Maria's World was everything.
Wendy's mouth opened wide. "Astral world? Plane? The world we live in is actually just an inconspicuous little corner? "
Borl also didn't dare to imagine and felt that it was inconceivable. What kind of world was this teacher in front of him seeing? Compared to him, Borl and the others were like frogs at the bottom of a well, forever seeing that small piece of sky.
Lu Zhiyu's words made the people present put away their arrogance, and they were now truly in awe of this world. Frank, on the other hand, yearned for the world that Lu Zhiyu had mentioned. He wished that he could immediately travel beyond the realm and see a different side of this world. He wanted to see the astral world and the universe that Lu Zhiyu had talked about.
Many planes.
Lu Zhiyu stood up and put on a blue and white checkered robe. The flames in the fireplace danced. Lu Zhiyu stood in front of the flames and said, "Frank, the Wizard Tower is in your hands. I hope that you will be different from Li Weisi and bring true light to the world."
After that, Lu Zhiyu disappeared in front of the fireplace. Frank bowed and said, "Mentor Anthony, please trust me. I will show you a different world and a different wizard tower."
Borl stood up and stood in front of the long table. His eyes were filled with hope and vigor.
