Chapter 41 New Apprentice

The commercial street in East City District.

When Sean came to the shop where Fatty Boss was again, he had sold all the goods that Sean had given him before.

At this time, nearly a month had passed since Sean returned from completing the mission.

Fatty Boss could have sold all the goods long ago, but in order to earn more black gold, this guy actually found a way to put three blue palate feather eggs into a small auction recently held in Mosobra City.

It must be said that the fat man does have a strong business mind.

In the end, the black gold that the fat man handed to Sean was 577 pieces, and this was after deducting the fat man's commission.

Such a large amount of black gold was the only one Sean had ever seen in his life.

And the receipt of this black gold will also help Sean to move faster in the field of alchemy in the future.

What Senior Brother Zorro said was right. In the early stage of alchemy, it was purely a job that would only burn money and would not see any returns for the time being.

It was far from enough to have only the bird claws and palate beaks of blue palate feathers to practice with Sean.

He needs to buy more experimental materials and some alchemy equipment.

It's impossible for Sean to go to the senior brother to borrow every time he wants to do some alchemy experiment, right?

In fact, the various alchemy equipment in the laboratory of mentor Moses is not only complete in number, but also extremely high-end.

But unfortunately, because it is too high-end, Sean doesn't know how to use it at all, or he is worried that he will break it.

Eat as much as your appetite.

Sean doesn't need to be ambitious, he is down-to-earth and starts to accumulate from the most basic.

Anyway, he is still young.

More than 500 black golds filled a medium-sized cloth bag, and Boss next to him was still chattering about how rich those sub-human tribes were.

Since participating in a small auction in Mosobra City, Boss's vision and pattern have gradually improved.

He has no talent in cultivation, but he is indeed a good hand in doing business.

And Boss is not without capital. With the support of Meili and Sean, as long as the two can provide him with magic potions and alchemy props in the future, he dares to pat his chest and guarantee that the three of them will definitely make a fortune.

Boss's ambition and promise made Sean a little funny.

Just when Sean was about to say something, the dull whistle of "Woo! Woo! Woo!" appeared and gradually echoed over the entire

Mosobra City.

Almost at the same time, Sean and Boss rushed out of the shop.

At this time, there were many people in Semosobra City who did the same thing as them.

Every resident in the city, after hearing these special sounds, couldn't help but raise their heads and look at the black giant shadow reflected in the fluorite light.

This is a huge ship that suddenly sailed out from nowhere.

The other party is so large that the length alone is two hundred meters, and the height is fifty meters.

In addition to several formal black magicians, the moment the floating giant ship appeared, they immediately flew over Mosobra City.

A dozen Owl Academy supervisors also flew into the sky and scattered in every corner of the floating ship.

Beside Sean, Fatty Boss couldn't help but sighed: "Another group of newcomers have come. I wonder how many people there are this time, and how many of them can meet the minimum mental strength requirements of the academy."

Fatty Boss seemed to remember the time when he first came to the Dark Region, so he seemed a little sentimental.

Sean didn't think so much. The moment he saw the floating ship above Mosobra City, the first thing that came to Sean's mind was "Another year has passed, and I am also seventeen years old."

...

Half a month later, almost all the apprentices of the Black Magic Academy knew that this year, the official black magicians had kidnapped nearly a thousand children on the surface.

But among them, only 272 people met the mental strength standard, which was less than one-third of the total.

The minimum standard for becoming a black magic apprentice is to have an initial mental strength of more than seven points.

Sean's initial mental power was eleven points, which may be one of the reasons why Sean has been relatively smooth in magic training for so many years.

The level of initial mental power does determine the promotion speed of magic apprentices in the early stage of learning to a large extent.

Sean was promoted to an intermediate apprentice at the age of sixteen, which can be called a little genius.

And those who are still wasting their time as low-level apprentices in their twenties or even thirty.

In addition to their low intelligence and limited understanding of magic, low initial mental power is probably also a major shortcoming.

I just don't know if the initial mental power value is linked to IQ?

More than two hundred new apprentices have brought vitality to the Black Magic Academy, which has been silent and suppressed for a long time.

Looking at these little guys with timid, fearful and slightly curious expressions,

more than one black magic apprentice remembered himself in the past.

Experience the coldness and despair of the Black Magic Academy! Many black magic apprentices sneered in their hearts.

According to the practice of previous years, the number of these two hundred new students will drop sharply to less than half in the second year.

The more than half of the students were basically "eliminated" for various reasons because they could not adapt to the college environment.

Even among the remaining half of the apprentices, there are very few who can eventually grow up and enter the level of low-level apprentices.

According to the probability, fifteen is already good.

Over the years, the entry-level apprentices have been replaced one after another, but the number of mid-level and senior apprentices accumulated has always been the same, which has explained a lot of problems.

Unlike some bored apprentices, Sean did not go to the dormitories of the newly enrolled apprentices to "inspect the goods".

After just a brief understanding of the situation of these new apprentices, Sean continued to devote himself to his study life.

…

Instructor Moses' laboratory.

That day, Sean came here as usual.

Slightly different from usual, Instructor Moses was not in the alchemy laboratory to conduct an experiment.

Instead, he sat in the living room on the first floor and chatted with the official black magician Dirs who came to visit.

After respectfully greeting the instructor and Master Dirs, Sean walked towards the laboratory.

While passing through the living room, Sean accidentally heard Instructor Moses and Master Dirs, who happened to be discussing this group of new apprentices.

"There are only about 200 apprentices with qualified mental power this time."

"I don't know if the number of qualified apprentices in the academy will meet the requirements of the dean and others in ten years." The speaker was Master Dirs.

Because he often visited Mosido recently and was born in the Western Islands like Mosido, this formal black magician has secretly reached an offensive and defensive alliance with Mosido.

A month ago, Dirs learned from Mosido the secrets that ordinary black magicians in Mosobara City have not yet touched.

Just this leading intelligence information is enough to put Dirs in the top ten of all formal black magicians in Mosobara City.

I don't know what news she got, so she paid unprecedented attention to whether the number of apprentices in the academy will be qualified in the future?
