Chapter 50: Changes and Crisis
Senior sister Fei'er's savage expression finally disappeared quietly as mentor Moses and senior brother Zorro walked into the laboratory.
Mentor Moses looked very bad at this time.
Although Moses still looked cold and sinister to outsiders, as a disciple who had followed the mentor for several years, Sean still found something different.
It was senior sister Fei'er who discovered Moses' abnormality earlier than Sean.
As someone who could act like a spoiled child to Moses and even ask for magic props, it was the first time in all these years that Fei'er saw the mentor's mood so solemn.
In a similar mood to mentor Moses, senior brother Zorro followed closely behind him.
Fortunately, the bad mood of the mentor and senior brother did not come from Sean and the two in front of them.
Looking at the two disciples who had been waiting in the laboratory for a long time and had arranged all the experimental equipment.
Mosido sighed deeply and said, "Sean, I have asked for another half-year leave for your mandatory mission in the academy. You should devote yourself to study and meditate to accumulate spiritual power during this time."
"Yes, mentor." Sean replied respectfully.
After instructing Sean, Mosido looked at Fei'er again and said, "Fei'er, you should also concentrate. You have been stuck in the advanced apprentice realm for more than fifteen years."
Mentor Mosido's words made Sean and Fei'er immediately serious.
"Crisis" and "change"?
What happened?
When Sean was still pondering the meaning of the mentor's words, senior sister Fei'er took the initiative to ask, "Teacher, is something about to happen?"
Fei'er's inquiry and the doubt on Sean's face made Mosido's face even gloomier.
After a long time, the other party said, "Originally, this matter was limited to the first-level formal black magicians."
"But you are my disciples, I will make an exception and tell you." Mosido said in a deep voice.
"Since three years ago, the airships we sent to the surface for plundering have been targeted."
"In the past three years, every time the airships were dispatched, there were corresponding official magicians and official knights to oppose us."
"Last year, there were as many as six attackers, so Dean Dadalong decided to suspend the plan of airships to plunder the surface this year."
"This morning, Dean Dadalong called together the sixteen official black magicians left behind by the Black Magic Academy and announced the early exploration of an alien space-time."
"Because the news was notified too suddenly, and the time-space crack was special...so the first to explore and help the academy bury the corresponding coordinate generator at the other end of the time-space crack were you black magic apprentices."
The amount of information in the words of mentor Moses was so large that Sean and Fei'er were a little caught off guard.
Whether it was "extra-dimensional exploration" or "time-space crack", it was still too high-end for the two of them who were only apprentices.
Including the public library of the Black Magic Academy, there is almost no content in this regard, which should be intentionally hidden by those formal black magicians.
Including the attack on the airship mentioned by the instructor, it also indicates that there is an enemy in the dark, spying on the underground world and the academy.
Is it the magicians on the surface? And those formal knights...
When Sean was still digesting this information, Senior Sister Fei'er said quickly: "The dean suddenly decided to start the exploration of that different time and space in advance. Is it because of the attack on the airship?"
"In that case, why didn't the academy directly kill those attackers? There were only six attackers..." Fei'er asked.
There are quite a few black magicians in Mosobra City. According to instructor Mosido, there are only sixteen formal black magicians stationed in the academy, not to mention the powerful dean and other hidden forces.
With only six formal magicians and knights from the surface, Mosobra City should have enough strength to fight back, or even destroy the opponent.
Facing Fei'er's inquiry, Mosido did not feel relaxed at all.
"Only on the surface there are six official magicians and knights, who knows how many more there are in secret?"
"After all, the Wizard Continent is not a place where we black magicians can wreak havoc. There are so many holy towers and knight halls here..."
Moses shook his head and said, "When this time-space exploration is successfully completed, I will take you back to the Western Islands."
"Work hard. Although you need to borrow the power of your apprentices this time, the first person to enter the time-space rift must be at least a quasi-magician."
"No experiments today. You go back and practice well. I have something to tell your senior brother." Moses waved his hand and said.
After leaving the mentor's laboratory, Sean and Fei'er no longer had the intention to do that.
After a simple chat, the two left separately.
Fei'er went directly to the apprentice dormitory, while Sean planned to go to the public library first.
He still had a lot of college points. Although he had never seen how many books on heterotopia-related knowledge there were in the public library before, he might find something if he looked carefully.
"Plane, an independent and complete world in the astral plane."
"The most common ones are half-planes and broken planes, while the rarer ones are planes with complete rules that can breed intelligent races and give birth to civilizations."
"These rule-complete planes are divided into..." Sean sighed softly as he looked at the end of the book, where the pages were obviously torn.
Putting away the ancient book called "Micro Elements", Sean looked at another book "The Travels of Marco Bo".
"The Travels of Marco Bo" records the story of a formal magician traveling in a different plane. The plane this magician traveled to is called the Centaur World.
Although Sean could not figure out what level of world the Centaur World belongs to from the book, he could see from the words in the book that the Centaur World is a plane completely ruled by the wizard world.
As a wizard in the wizard world, Marco Bo enjoyed a high status and some privileges when traveling in the Centaur World.
The other party even had in-depth exchanges with several female Centaurs during his travels.
"Microcosmic Elements" and "The Travels of Marco Polo" are the only two magic books that Sean found in the public library of the college, which record certain knowledge and situations of the alternate plane.
Although some other magic books also have some words about the alternate plane, most of them are just a casual mention.
The effective information is not as much as these two books.
"Centaurs? What kind of creature is that? According to the description in the book, it seems to be similar to minotaurs?"
"However, minotaurs have the head of a bull and the body of a human, while centaurs seem to have the head of a human and the body of a horse?"
At night, Sean, lying in bed, couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Lina didn't come back today, probably because Master Felena's experiment has reached a tense point again.
Sean couldn't share the news he just got from his mentor with Lina, otherwise with Lina's intelligence and knowledge, she would surely be able to give Sean some advice.
