Chapter 60 Suffering and Courage
Lina entered the magic altar on the seventh day, and senior sister Feier left on the eighth day.
Shadow Valley, which once accommodated hundreds of magic apprentices, has almost become extinct among entry-level apprentices, so quasi-magicians and advanced magic apprentices have also entered the magic altar.
By the tenth day, there were less than three hundred apprentices left in the entire valley, and almost all of them were mid- to low-level apprentices.
It was also at this time that the academy actually stopped transporting apprentices into the magic altar.
Thain didn't know exactly what happened.
"How's it going? Has any apprentice arrived successfully, or is there any other news?" In the magic tower, Deputy Dean Da Dalon walked to the testing room at the top of the tower and asked.
"Both Dean Martin and Dean Joanie were watching the cracks in time and space. Although some senior apprentices and quasi-magicians were damaged, most of them passed."
"There is no detailed information and situation on the alien plane yet. It is just that through the energy elements spilling out of the cracks in time and space, we can roughly estimate that the other side is a plane with an unusually rich concentration of earth elements."
"Earth element?" Vice Dean Da Dalon couldn't help but frown when he heard the news.
After working hard in the Black Realm for thousands of years, he suddenly felt something was wrong.
This is pure intuition.
The source of the problem was not that the situation in that alien plane was special, but that he suddenly thought of other aspects.
"The earth element plane? Why does the earth element happen to be extremely rich in concentration?"
"Martin and Dean are both earth element masters. Could this matter be related to Dean?"
"That's right. Ever since the dean made a brief appearance in the city of Mensobra more than a hundred years ago, he has never been seen again, including me."
"Does it really have anything to do with the dean?"
"There were rumors in the Black Domain hundreds of years ago that the dean failed to break through to level four and is on his deathbed."
"But judging from the dean's feat of establishing the city of Mensobra a hundred years ago, this rumor should be self-defeating."
"Then why hasn't the dean appeared in front of others for so long? Martin has always been the one to step in..." Vice-dean Da Dalon thought of a lot at the moment.
Originally, he wouldn't have thought so much, but the recent threat from the Holy Tower on the surface made Dadalon think a lot while being anxious and exhausted.
He even had a bold guess about exploring the cracks in time and space and carving up a rich alien plane.
It was also the trick created by the master and apprentice pair, Dean and Martin.
Otherwise, why would Martin invite an alchemist like Moses to the Dark Territory a hundred years ago, including those dark creatures who also took the initiative to contact him? It seems that there is really something hidden.
The series of situations that came to Dadalon's mind made this second-level black magician break into a cold sweat.
However, these situations have little impact on Dadalon, and it is not necessarily true whether they are true.
Because the earth elemental alien plane does indeed exist, as long as he can successfully invade the past and plunder it, it will not be in vain for him to have been the deputy dean in the Dark Region for hundreds of years.
As for what the dean and Martin are doing, Dadalon, as a second-level black magician, is better not to participate casually.
In the dark realm, strength is paramount.
As a well-known third-level black magician in a certain area of the Black Territory at that time, the dean was not something Dadalon could criticize.
Moreover, if there is really anything to do with the old dean, Dadalon will most likely be the one to benefit.
Because a powerful dean is in front, which will inevitably be accompanied by many benefits and the reduction of external threats.
The only thing that made Dadalon unhappy, even angry, was that he felt he had been deceived.
Was it a "scam" to become the vice president from the very beginning?
"I just don't know if that woman Qioni knows something. Maybe I can test her." Dadalon thought to himself.
…
The suspension of transporting apprentices to the magic altar in the Shadow Valley made many surviving magic apprentices in the valley breathe a deep sigh of relief.
But that doesn’t include Thane.
Thain is extremely worried about his girlfriend Lina's condition.
What is it like deep inside the Magic Altar? What exactly is a space-time rift? What is the alien plane like?
Lying in an empty tent at night, Thain tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
If given the choice, Thane would rather be sent to the deepest part of the magic altar together.
Even if there is any danger, he still hopes to face it with Lina.
Perhaps as early as more than ten years ago, when Lina chose Thain, who was only eight years old at the time, the lifelong bond between the two of them had already been decided.
Even more than his girlfriend Lina, Thain also thought of his senior sister.
Thain has complicated feelings for this senior sister who will give her the first time to him and who is also very lustful.
There is not only the friendship between classmates, but also the special emotions in the relationship between men and women.
Of course, as for the senior sister's unruly and willful nature, as Thain's heart became more and more worried about the two women, those flaws had long since disappeared.
It was also in this suffering and waiting that more than half a month passed.
Half a month later, news finally came from the college.
This time, some apprentices are still put into the magic altar, starting from intermediate apprentices, and the number is limited to 50 people.
"I'll go!" In the center of the spacious Shadow Valley, Thain, as an intermediate apprentice, was the first to speak out after Dean Dadalon gave the order.
Thain's voice made all the apprentices in Shadow Valley look at him.
Several black magicians, including the dean, also looked at this intermediate apprentice who volunteered with interest.
Dean Dadalon seemed to have some impression of Thain. He pointed at Thain and said, "Aren't you the disciple of Moses? I still remember you."
"Yes, Mr. Dean, I am the fifth disciple of my mentor." Thain replied respectfully.
Dadalon nodded and acknowledged: "Yes, he is a little guy with talent and courage."
"Go ahead, you will be one of the first batch of intermediate apprentices to enter the space-time rift." Dadalon waved his hand and pointed at the magic altar and said.
Ignoring the pointing of other magic apprentices around him and the scrutiny of other black magicians in the valley, Thain walked to the center of the magic altar.
Taking a deep breath, after Deputy Dean Da Dalon finally counted all the apprentices, Thain, who was at the back of the team of fifty apprentices, strode into the altar.
Unlike what he saw outside the altar, which was just pure white elemental light, as Thane gradually penetrated into the magic altar, what appeared in his field of vision were countless magic inscriptions and some energy crystals embedded in every corner of the magic altar. .
A thin layer of crimson liquid spread on the surface of the altar, and the faint fishy smell in the air marked what the liquid was.
In the deepest part of the altar, an oval energy gate stands at the center of all the magic inscriptions.
After the apprentice in front stepped into it, Thain also entered.
It was also the first time that Thain heard the voice of his mentor when he entered this energy gate.
