Chapter 1273: The Death of Am

As Grimm expected, the appearance of Horton School of Witchcraft immediately caused a sensation in the central part of the continent.

No other school of witchcraft has ever been able to gather so many high-level wizards and powerful creatures from other planes; no other school of witchcraft has ever been able to divide its learning and training venues across more than a dozen secondary planes; no other school of witchcraft has ever been able to recruit students from outside without restrictions...

Therefore, when the list of tutors of Horton School of Witchcraft was made public, the entire Sandi Tallinn, and even the entire central part of the continent, was boiling.

Open enrollment without restrictions on race, gender, ancestry, and quotas, high-level knowledge and wizard resources without contract restrictions, fair teaching without discrimination, good and excellent witchcraft facilities, and those prominent and dazzling powerful tutors...

Horton School of Witchcraft has borrowed from the training model of the Wizard Association in many aspects of its settings. It no longer takes family wizards as the ultimate training goal, but opens up the high-quality resources of the Crimson Family to the outside world, which is a bit like a public welfare witchcraft school.

This also makes Horton School of Witchcraft rooted in the Crimson Family, but outside the family system, and become a strange melting pot for cultivating free wizards.

From the first day of enrollment, Horton School of Witchcraft never cares about the origin of the students. Even if they are clearly marked with the marks of other wizard families, it will accept them and provide all basic resources fairly and openly.

As long as you have magic crystals and are willing to stay in Horton School of Witchcraft, the door here will always be open to you.

There is no service contract, no mandatory tasks, no discrimination based on blood origin, no distinction between noble and humble status... There is no distinction between teaching and learning, and you can come and go freely.

And this is undoubtedly the most attractive place!

You know, most of the wizard families in the central part of the continent are not living well.

Except for a few wizard families who can conquer the other planes on a large scale and grab a lot of resources, most wizard families are lucky to have a secondary plane that can continuously provide magic crystals and resources.

The scarce resources within the family are tilted towards those who are powerful or talented, and the situation of ordinary wizards and apprentices is still very difficult.

These ordinary wizards and apprentices, who account for the majority of the number, want to obtain some resources, so they can only hold their noses and bite the bullet to trade with these wizard families. The terms of the transaction are either a service contract for a certain number of years, or stepping onto the plane battlefield to fight for them in the other plane...

Either sell yourself or sell your life, there is no other way.

After all, all wizard resources have been monopolized by wizard families of all sizes!

But now, the emergence of Horton Witchcraft Academy has provided them with a new choice.

For those wandering wizards or free wizards, they can go to the academy to be a mentor in name only, and get the corresponding magic crystal rewards by teaching public classes or refining potions, writing scrolls, concocting wizard beasts, puppets, etc., and then use these rewards to buy high-level knowledge open to the public.

Because they are free, they can come and go as they please, without being constrained or controlled by anyone or any organization, and there is no danger to their lives. Moreover, as academy instructors, they can also enjoy a certain amount of free witchcraft facilities.

This is a great thing for those free wizards who have a lot of witchcraft materials in their hands but have no place to process them!

Moreover, the Crimson Family is rich and powerful, and the core witch tower of Horton Witchcraft Academy is also top-level configuration. The witchcraft facilities inside are so complete and refined that they are the best in the entire central continent.

At least, those small witchcraft academies in various regions cannot compare with Horton Witchcraft Academy in terms of financial resources, material resources and manpower. Therefore, after hearing about such excellent conditions, those free wizards and apprentices rushed to Tielin City.

In less than half a year, Tielin City was forced to expand three times, and the permanent population also soared from 6,000 to 120,000.

This nameless town located on the edge of the Elovis region has become the most sought-after large wizard city in the central part of the continent almost instantly because it is adjacent to the Horton Witch Academy.

…………

Feidnan City, the residence of the Salupo family.

Am, dressed in a gray wizard robe, passed through the silent and dark magic corridor, passed through a light film shining with a faint witchcraft glow, and came to the public passage of the spell area.

In front of him was a relatively wide stone corridor, and twos and threes of family apprentices holding books in their hands were rushing to the academic hall. In three minutes, Am wizard's spell open class will start, so the late apprentices can only speed up their pace, not wanting to miss this free course once a week.

As the wizard teaching this class, Am will also receive a certain amount of magic crystal compensation and task points from the family to support his expensive witchcraft experiment that is almost bankrupt.

However, when Amm the Wizard walked to the entrance of the academic hall, he unexpectedly saw three apprentices, two men and one woman, standing at the door, seemingly waiting for his arrival.

Amm hesitated.

All three were his senior apprentices, and the three with better qualifications.

Seeing Amm coming, the three apprentices gathered around him, looking at each other, with nervous and uneasy expressions on their faces, and it was obvious that they were having some difficult things to say.

"What are you doing here? Class is about to start, and I don't have much time to deal with your problems... Let's discuss everything after class!" Amm frowned.

Natalie, the most petite female apprentice with freckles on her face but still beautiful, finally mustered up the courage to speak.

"Teacher, we want to say goodbye to you!"

"Farewell? Are you going on a long journey?" Am frowned even deeper: "Your spiritual power has just reached a high level, and you are still far away from the quasi-witch level. Don't be so anxious to practice..."

"Not to practice..."

"Not to practice? Then why are you saying goodbye at the same time? Tell me, did your family have an accident?" Am said in a deep voice.

"There is no accident in our family, but... we just want to leave here and go to another place for further study. There... the conditions there are very generous, and many partners in the Wu Tower have already set off in advance! And we just want to say goodbye to you before we leave..."

Am was silent.

His face turned a little pale, making him look older and weaker.

These years, his life was very depressed and suffocating.

He was a traitor of the Crimson Family and was hanging around in the Salupo Family. Although the family treated him equally and took good care of him, countless people inside and outside who knew the inside story laughed at him behind his back.

Even those ant-like wizard apprentices met him in the corridor, and behind their respectful eyes, they also had a look of contempt and sympathy that could not be concealed.

He was one of the five disciples who followed the legendary fire wizard Grimm at first, and he was the only one among the five disciples who had an affinity with fire. He actually chose to betray his mentor because of his "loyalty" to the Salupo Family...

If that Grimm died smoothly like this, then Am would become a typical example of rectifying the chaos, and would be admired and secretly approved by everyone, and even his status in the family would be significantly improved. But things are unpredictable... The script of life seems to never be written according to the ideas of the weak!

That Grimm was suppressed by the Salupo Family for so long, but he still rose strongly. What's more terrifying is that his strength has even overwhelmed the Level 3 witch, Sanaza, who ruled the Salubo family.

In the battle between the strong men of the Sanditalin Association, Sanaza was severely humiliated by Grimm and was forced to transfer to the secondary plane to rest and recuperate. Now, the one who rules and manages the Salubo family is none other than the purple-eyed master who is as famous as Sanaza.

However, just when the family was planning to retaliate against Grimm, terrible news came that the other party... had actually been promoted to Level 4!

The moment this news came, the entire Salubo family was silent.

Level 4... Level 4... Level 4...

In the wizard world, Level 4 is the top existence!

If Grimm wanted to embarrass the Salubo family, it would be useless even if the Salubo family had a Level 6 wizard behind them.

After all, the real body of the great wizard Sarupo was far away from the domain, and he was powerless to do anything about the affairs in the wizard world.

So, in a wave of inexplicable fear, Amm hid in the residence of the Sarupo family and never dared to step out of Fednan City again.

However, he chose to isolate himself, but the news from afar continued to come.

In the past one or two hundred years, the most powerful in the central part of the entire continent is probably the Crimson Family and the legendary fire wizard.

Every once in a while, there will be the latest explosive news, which will set off a wave of not small within the family. However, the most annoying news for Amm was hearing that the red dragon witch Meryl was promoted to level 3...

The night the news came, Amm smashed all the items in his residence and laboratory, got drunk, and lay in the ruins screaming in pain all night.

He always thought that he no longer cared about everything in the distance. But through that night, he completely understood that he still cared!

Fortunately, time is the best healing medicine. Nearly a hundred years of silence and busyness made him calm down again and become the most diligent and hardworking first-level wizard of the Salubo family.

Yes, more than two hundred years have passed, and Am's life has been over for most of the time. Even when his face and body have declined and aged, he is still just an ordinary first-level advanced wizard.

Today, here, he was stopped by three disciples he taught personally and said he wanted to leave. For some reason, Am's heart was vaguely telling him that this might be related to that devilish guy.

A ferocious beast roared in Am's heart...

Am gritted his teeth, smiled, and asked gently.

"Tell me! What attracted you..."

Natalie was speechless.

Finally, another male apprentice Russor mustered up the courage to speak out.

"Houghton Witchcraft Academy... was... was established by that... Crimson Family!"

Crimson... It is indeed Crimson!

It was this cursed name again... Did the demon cast a curse on me? I could hear this damn name wherever I hid...

Am only felt a roar in his brain, the last trace of blood on his face quickly faded, and a fishy sweetness suddenly appeared in his mouth. He shook his body, stretched out his hands to support the wall beside him, and slowly fell to the ground amid the terrified shouts of the three apprentices.

The last trace of life quickly slipped away from his aging body...
