Chapter 5 Nest
It is difficult to lie in front of an academy supervisor. These half-meter-tall owls are special magical beasts specially bred by the mysterious dean of the Black Magic Academy.
The combat power exceeds that of high-level magic beasts, and is enough for these owls to handle any apprenticeship disputes below the level of formal magicians.
Not to mention, in this black magic academy, there are hidden magic inscriptions and alchemical eyeballs everywhere.
It is not a problem to explore the truth of the facts, or even directly restore the details of the battle just now.
However, the conflicts between low-level apprentices are obviously not to the extent that the academy supervisors use their surveillance eyes to restore the battle scenes just now.
When Thane took out the medal representing an official black magician's apprentice, the supervisor chose to settle the matter.
As for the second half of what Thain said, it even gave this owl a step down.
The huge wings waved forward, and the corpse of the low-level apprentice Irk, which had been corroded by strong acid and turned into coke, was blown to the white crow forest on both sides of the road under the influence of the wind element.
These corpse fragments will be the best fertilizer for the underground plants in White Crow Forest.
Considering that conflicts and fights often break out between apprentices in the Black Magic Academy, similar fertilizers are not uncommon in many corners of White Crow Forest.
After bowing gently to this wise owl, Thain ignored the strange looks from the apprentices around him and walked step by step towards his dormitory building.
The pale mask that was Thain's trophy was already put on his face.
It is indeed a magic item. After wearing it, Thain obviously found that his vision was much clearer and wider.
…
The Black Magic Academy in Mensobra City has a total number of apprentices ranging from 700 to 800 year-round.
Every year, apprentices die for one reason or another, and new apprentices emerge every year.
Only a small number of these newly admitted apprentices come from children of school age in Mensobra City.
More than 90% of them came from the surface just like Thain, and were children kidnapped and plundered underground by black magicians using various means.
Thain still vaguely remembered some things before he was six years old. His luxurious golden hair and handsome face marked the fact that he was a noble.
Including when he first came to the Dark Territory, he was able to snatch food from other peers, which was also due to the fact that he had practiced some rough swordsmanship and breathing techniques when he was a child.
These things are out of reach of civilians.
Thain has few memories of his origins and childhood.
Except for his last name and the amiable face of his mother in the dream, Thain could not recall anything else.
Life at the Black Magic Academy really took up too much of Thane's energy.
Instead of dwelling on the past, Thain wants to live down-to-earth.
There are more than twenty dormitory buildings provided to apprentices by the Black Magic Academy, each with six floors and eight rooms on each floor.
The more powerful the apprentices are, the closer their dormitories are to the inside and the higher the floors.
The reason why those powerful apprentices choose this is because they need a relatively quiet environment during meditation and spell casting experiments.
It is not unusual for some powerful apprentices to occupy an entire floor by themselves.
It is precisely for this reason that every year when freshmen first enter school, fierce conflicts always break out over dormitory issues.
Thain's room is on the fourth floor of the fifth building behind the dormitory complex.
As a low-level apprentice, he obviously couldn't grab such a good position.
The reason why he can live here is because of his live-in girlfriend Lina.
Lina is her benefactor, his senior sister, his magic guide, and also his girlfriend.
From some perspectives, Lina should be his mentor.
Including Thain's great talent in the knowledge of fire elements, it is also because he has helped Lina complete some magic experiments all year round.
"Tick!" As Thain pressed the magic crystal lamp, dim light appeared in the room in front of him.
This is a room covering an area of about 70 square meters, which is not large.
And because there are a lot of sundries and books needed for experiments accumulated, there is also a bathroom and a small independent experimental platform.
It made the whole room look much cramped.
But when he returned here, Thain felt sincerely relaxed, because this was his nest.
There was a faint sour smell in the air, and Thain could smell it as the burning smell of black camphor grass, a low-level magic material.
Lena is not a woman who knows how to clean up. In fact, in the years that she has been living together, it has been Thain who has been doing the housework.
After looking around and realizing that Lina was not at home, Thain dragged his tired body to the big bed in the center of the room.
This is a special large bed composed of two single beds. Its birth originated from that night two years ago.
Perhaps thinking of certain scenes, Thain let out a growl in his throat and then shook his head.
He put his harvest on the desk next to the bed first, and sat cross-legged on the bed. In front of him was the large bottle of intermediate antidote given to him by his new mentor Moses.
After pouring the antidote into his mouth, Thain himself pulled his mental power and started a routine of meditation.
Meditation is the gentlest way to restore mental strength and magic, and sometimes it can even replace sleep.
As Thain gradually entered a meditative state, his dried up mental power and magic power gradually recovered, including the blue moss poison in his body, which was slowly dissipated under the action of this intermediate antidote.
There was no time to practice, and when Thain opened his eyes again, it was already the next day.
After more than ten hours of meditation, Thain's energy and spirit finally returned to a relatively strong state.
It was only when he stopped meditating that he discovered that his girlfriend Lina had returned.
"You're back," Thane whispered.
"Yeah." Lina nodded.
What appeared at the window at this time was a girl who was only 1.5 meters tall, with fiery red hair and a cold temperament.
Lina is not a person who likes to talk. In fact, Sean has lived with her for eight years, and their usual conversations are very jerky and brief.
Lina's appearance and height make her look like a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl.
But Thain knew that this was not Lena's original age.
Lina has maintained this appearance since they met eight years ago. Eight years have passed, and Lina has not changed at all.
From some gossips coming from the magic academy, Thane knew that Lina had experienced an experimental accident with her mentor many years ago, which caused her to become like this.
Thain didn't know exactly how old Lina was, and he didn't ask.
Just like Lina has never asked Thain's surname or his childhood background.
Everyone has their own secrets and corners that are not understood by others.
Although Thane and Lena are already in a physical relationship, it seems they haven't been completely honest with each other yet.
"Are you injured?" Lina first glanced at the magic staff and pale mask that Thain placed beside the bed, then frowned and looked at Thain's chest, which was obviously stained with blood.
