The main area of Floating Mech City was now open to the public as a hub for trade in the southern wizardry region.
The other side of Floating Mech City was not completely off-limits to outsiders, but it was no different from any other wizard organization.
There was also a questing hall, a mechanical library, an R&D department, and so on. There was also a comprehensive academy called Ashillia, which was open to outsiders.
Angor was currently in Ashillia Comprehensive Academy.
Because he would be teaching here soon, he came here today mainly to do a basic registration and at the same time to check out the environment here.
After talking to Ashillia, Angor gained a better understanding of the academy.
Although it was called a "comprehensive" school, in fact, it mainly taught alchemy. However, as Mithra mentioned, there were also Mushroom Witches who taught classes on mushroom processing.
Of course, Mushroom Witches were the minority.
The reason why the academy was called "comprehensive" was because the first principal, Ashillia, who used to be the head of R&D department, wanted to establish the academy as a comprehensive one.
However, the alchemy industry in Floating Mech City was too strong, so the place became an alchemy academy.
Angor decided to change the name to "alchemy academy" after learning more about it. "Comprehensive" meant too many things, and alchemy was the main focus here. The name of the academy might not be enough to keep everyone's attention.
For example, when talking about gourmet wizards, people would think of Candy House. When talking about sea wizards, people would naturally think of Song of the Deep.
Floating Mech City became a destination for alchemists partly because of the R&D department, but the existence of Ashillia Academy was also another reason.
A comprehensive academy might seem to cover a lot of things, but it was not necessarily good.
For this reason, the southern wizardry region still regarded Ashillia as an alchemy academy despite its name.
Ashillia Academy was built in Floating Mech City, but alchemists from other wizard organizations were not prohibited from studying here. Angor saw many alchemists here, but half of them were actually from other wizard organizations.
Alchemists who came from outside Floating Mech City would have to sign some special agreements. These agreements would not restrict one's personal freedom, but there would be certain confidentiality clauses, as well as a fee for studying here. Usually, the fee would not be magic crystals. Instead, one would have to take on some crafting tasks while studying here.
However, there was one type of alchemist that was an exception. That was, Sorcerer organizations that had members of the Research and Development Department could directly come here to study without having to sign such agreements.
In other words, Brute Cavern would benefit as a whole, especially the alchemists, if Angor became a member of the research department.
He didn't think too much about why Ashillia Academy would set up such a system. It had to be something to do with the school's sense of belonging.
Thanks to Antonio's guidance, Angor soon finished his preparations for the class. Ashilie, who was staying in Vice Principal Dorm, was also very excited about Angor's class.
After all, as a new member of the research department, Angor was famous but mysterious.
Teaching here would definitely attract the attention of the alchemy circle.
As for the content of the class, he could do whatever he wanted. But since it was his first class, he decided to follow the rules and choose something he was familiar with — enchantment.
He didn't mention what kind of enchantment he was going to talk about.
To avoid clashing with the Water Witch's class, Angor decided to start his class a week later under the suggestion of the vice principal.
Once he was done, he left Ashilie's office.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
Angor spent most of his time dealing with the Polymorph spell. Occasionally, he would go to Fragrant Pavilion.
Nausica's level-up match lasted for a long time, but she didn't suffer any serious injuries. The only thing that was damaged was her mechanical arm. Nausica thought she would have to fight with only one hand in the next round. But now that Angor was back, he could easily repair the damaged arm without breaking a sweat.
Nausica was a little surprised by Angor's breakthrough, but she was much calmer than Sailum.
Nausica sighed. "I knew you'd become a wizard sooner or later, but I didn't expect it to come so soon."
Nausica wished Angor well for his success. At the same time, she became stricter with herself.
Or rather, because of Angor's breakthrough, both Nausica and Sailum felt a sense of urgency, and they had to work harder.
Actually, this was another kind of motivation.
When Angor officially showed up in the Rising Star Competition, Nausica and Sailum would probably feel the same way. All his peers, even those who used to be stronger than Angor but were still apprentices, would probably feel the same way.
Nausica and Sailum already qualified for the Rising Star Competition. The only ones left were Shan, Shiliew, and David.
There were only three days left before the preliminaries of the competition ended. Shan was very anxious these days. She lost several matches in a row, and she was getting farther and farther away from Level 30. She was not there yet, so the point system was not activated yet. Even if she reached Level 30 in three days, it would still be difficult for her to accumulate 100 points. She had to fight more than ten matches in a day, and she had an 80% chance of winning.
Shan was basically out of the running.
Shiliew, on the other hand, still had a chance. She already had 68 points, which was not far from 100.
Besides, Shiliew said she would start using potions to suppress her sleepiness in the following matches.
In Shiliew's matches, she basically lost to her own strong sleepiness. Once her sleepiness was gone, she would have a much better chance of advancing.
David also had a good chance of advancing. According to Sailum, David should be able to reach 100 points in two days.
Once he passed the preliminaries, he would also be qualified for the Rising Star Competition.
Apart from worrying about his friend, Angor also cared about his brother Leon's matches.
Leon only fought two matches in the past three days. He should have gained the most experience in comparison, but unfortunately, he had lost both matches.
Leon set a goal for himself. Before the preliminaries of the Rising Star Competition began, he had to reach the second level of the Sky Tower.
For this, Nausica gave Leon a hell of a training session after her mechanical arm was fixed.
Leon was also very strict with himself. During the day, he would train endlessly, and at night, he would go to Foundation City to train with Saber. The training in the dream wasteland could not be quickly applied to his muscles, but it could still improve his combat experience and his understanding of techniques.
…
On this day, Angor spent the whole day studying the materials needed for Polymorph. He planned to take a break and think about the content of his class.
But before he could calm down, he heard Sunders' voice again.
It was simple: Brute Cavern sent someone here.
Angor was surprised. He put down the letter and walked out of his room.
When he entered the hall, he was immediately stared at by several pairs of eyes. Some were curious, some admired, and some were curious.
Angor looked around.
As Sunders said, they were all from Brute Cavern. Some of them were familiar faces.
For example, "Rose Crown" Leona was leaning against the window and chatting with Greya who was sunbathing outside.
Since Leona was here, David was naturally here as well. From outside the hall, he stuck his freckled face out of the curtain and made a funny face at Angor.
