"Grandfather, we've done as you instructed. We've expanded the recruitment and selection of apprentices across the country!"
In the outskirts of the capital, Lambo stood in front of a bustling construction site and reported to Wu Ming respectfully.
In front of them was the foundation of a wizard tower. A deep pit had been dug, and countless pieces of granite, star gold, and hundred-tempered steel had been transported into it.
"Very good. Because of the use of magic, this wizard tower can be completed quickly. With this as the core, we'll build an academy … You don't have to worry about teachers. The leaders of the Watchmen and Nightwatchers will be very willing to come here …"
Wu Ming looked at the plans for the future magic academy and said calmly, "Nurturing the kingdom's spellcasters is a very important matter. We have to start now … Fortunately, with the kingdom's population, we'll be able to find many talented apprentices after the selection."
The Seer World originally had the inheritance of extraordinary powers. What they needed to do now was to systematize and standardize it.
"I have great faith in the potential of my people, but …" Lambo was a little hesitant.
Lan Bo was a little hesitant. "Is it too late to do this now?"
Nurturing a wizard was not something that could be done in a short period of time.
"You're underestimating the calamity I told you about …"
Hearing this, Wu Ming shook his head. "The resentment and sins that have been accumulated in the Inner World for countless years will explode. It could last for decades or even centuries! Moreover … the actual date of the disaster could be several years, or it could be more than ten years later. It's never wrong to prepare for a rainy day! "
"Apart from apprentices, the training of the entire population, the accumulation of resources, the reinforcement of the city walls, and the construction of shelters can all be put on the agenda …"
"Finally, apart from wizards, who says that I'm not going to use other spellcasting powers?"
As Wu Ming spoke, a mysterious look appeared on his face.
Wizards and Wizards could not be trained quickly. Preparing now was only for the sake of a protracted war.
He also had a few candidates who could unleash their power immediately.
The first was the bloodline holders in the Seer Continent.
The blueblood nobles had generally inherited the power of the Frost Dragons, and there were many people like them. Moreover, the development of the bloodline was faster than learning spells step by step. If they were collected, they could be used temporarily.
It was just that Warlocks had the problem of fixed spells. They couldn't freely learn the spells they needed, and generally had mental defects, so they couldn't be of great use.
But it didn't matter. Wu Ming still had another option, and that was a Cleric!
Compared to Warlocks, the cultivation of priests was much faster. As long as the gods were willing and had enough faith, they could be bestowed with divine grace overnight and be promoted to a high-level Spell Caster!
In terms of the Divine Path, Wu Ming was very experienced. He also had the experience of the Main Shrine in the Steam World. It could be said that he was very familiar with it.
In fact, there was a church on the original Seer Continent! Now that the skeleton had been established, everything would be fine as long as it was reborn in a shell.
In times of war, the healing magic of priests was perhaps more popular than that of mages.
"Lastly, if it really doesn't work, there's still the Reincarnator Cultivation System of the Main Divine Temple!"
A glint flashed in Wu Ming's eyes.
At this stage, he was no longer afraid of exposing part of the functions of the Main Divine Temple to other existences.
After all, with the power of a Grand Luo, he could completely do what the Main Divine Temple did, so it wasn't a big deal.
And with his current strength, even if the other gods knew that he had a very good artifact, how many would dare to covet it?
"The cultivation of Reincarnators can be targeted, and not just spellcasters. Warriors, thieves, assassins … As long as I want a profession, I can cultivate them in batches …
"Also, the consumption and conversion in this is slightly less than that of a god cultivating priests …"
Wu Ming thought silently, "This is an opportunity! While the eastern and western continents are busy defending against the disaster, the Seer Continent can take the opportunity to rise. Of course, we still have to raise the great flag of protecting humanity …
"I can even send Reincarnators into the inner world in advance to investigate the situation there and obtain the latest information!"
Even the gods could not order a large number of their priests and paladins to die, unless they wanted to be deserted and lose a large number of outstanding petitioners.
However, the Main Divine Temple only needed the true spirits of Reincarnators. This was something that could be immediately retrieved no matter where they died, and would not feel the slightest heartache over the deaths of Reincarnators.
The difference between the two was obvious when compared.
"All in all, the Main Divine Temple is just a very convenient tool for Grand Luo … It's valuable, but it's a pipe dream to say that they wouldn't mind risking their Arcadia for it … On the other hand, those at rank 6 and 7 might fight each other to the death for the brains of others …"
Wu Ming felt a little disappointed. He was finally catching up to this divine artifact that had helped him grow immeasurably. Apart from that, he felt a sense of pride.
After conquering and climbing a tall mountain, he immediately set his eyes on his next target. That was a rank 9 Origin Immemorial, the ultimate transcendence!
"I see!"
After a brief explanation, Lan Bo was immediately subservient, and at the same time, he was deeply in awe.
He had no idea that this grandfather of his actually possessed such power.
Just like this time.
If not for the Conquest King personally overseeing things, he would never have been able to mobilize the entire nation and have his orders carried out without a hitch as the new king.
"With Lord Grandfather protecting our kingdom, there's nothing to be afraid of even if disaster befalls us!"
Lan Bo flattered.
"You really think too highly of me …"
Wu Ming sighed and looked at the foundation of the wizard tower, feeling rather speechless. "Even a true god could fall in this calamity!"
In order to deal with such a situation that could happen at any time, his real body had to stay in the continent. His original plan of traveling could only be done by his incarnation.
After rank 8, he was both unique and infinite. There was no longer any risk of abnormalities in his incarnation, unless the imprint was damaged and his realm dropped.
…
Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, five years had passed.
In these five years, the entire Main World was surging with undercurrents. All the major clans knew of the impending calamity and were silently preparing for it.
At least as far as Wu Ming knew, within the territories ruled by humans, the nobles of the East and the West were doing their best to recruit guests, stock up on resources, and repair the city walls.
The training of warriors, and even some Taoist techniques, had begun to be released to the public on a large scale for free. It was filled with the feeling of a storm brewing.
It was the same in the Seer Kingdom.
Outside the capital, a wizard academy stood quietly. The tall building was filled with magic aura, and there were many wizard apprentices going in and out. The towns and markets that had sprung up around the academy were all telling of the prosperity and prosperity of this place.
"I have spell model class at night, and I have to prepare a few sets of casting materials in the afternoon. The spell model of the Alchemist's Hand is too complicated …"
A wizard apprentice wearing a wizard robe with a star badge on his chest walked out of the door, looking hesitant. "I've already spent more than half of the stipends from the country for this month. I can only go to the Black Forest to gather materials myself!"
"Hey! Bruce, do you want to go to the market? Let's go together! "
Another apprentice beside him called out to him.
"That's not necessary. I want to go to the Black Forest to gather some materials …"
Bruce shook his head and refused.
The Black Forest was a forest that the academy had specially circled out. Many magical plants and animals were raised in it, and it was also guarded by a barrier. It was not a big deal for official wizards, but for apprentices, it was not only hard to gather materials, but it was also dangerous. However, it was free.
The reason for this was to train the apprentices' practical abilities.
Although it seemed like a shortcut, it was not a big deal when the calamity could break out at any time.
Bruce walked on the tree-lined path with a determined look on his face. "I must get the scholarship next month!"
As the son of a dock laborer, he naturally knew how rare this opportunity was.
Back when he was sent to school, he had been recommended to study in the royal wizard academy because of his excellent grades and his aptitude as a wizard. He had even signed an agreement.
In return, after becoming a wizard, he would serve the kingdom for the rest of his life. Of course, Lambo would not mistreat these spellcasters. He would confer titles and so on.
However, if he could not graduate as an official wizard within five years, he would immediately be sent to the army to be groomed as a wizard in the army. The danger and hardships would be multiplied!
Bruce, who was fifteen this year, was already a young adult. He naturally knew the difference! He even swore to break through before the end of his life, become a respected wizard and noble, and return to Jade Port in glory.
"Who are you?"
A group of soldiers blocked the way at the entrance of the Black Forest. Behind them, a few official wizards could be seen.
"I am Bruce, a wizard apprentice. I want to go to the Black Forest to gather materials!"
Bruce said calmly as he handed over his badge.
"Yes, you are indeed a junior!"
A wizard in a red robe looked at the badge and shook his head. "Unfortunately! From today onwards, all the resources in the Black Forest are not open to any apprentice. All spellcasting materials must be gathered and distributed! "
"What?"
This news was undoubtedly a huge bolt out of the blue to Bruce. However, the notice that was stamped with a magic seal and the king's seal was not fake.
Bruce could only walk back with a depressed expression. He was even more confused. "What's going on with the kingdom? Is it going to start a war with the Eastern and Western Continents? "
Even the most ordinary citizen could feel that something was wrong with the changes over the years.
