Surviving the Fourth Calamity

Chapter 1705 Who Did You Offend?
The only thing West could comfort himself was that at least Archmage Root didn't treat him as garbage to be kicked out, otherwise Gilbert would never open the door for him given his character of not liking trouble.

For something so important that Gilbert must know and act accordingly, Master Luteta will definitely send a student who is older than Gilbert to personally inform him.

For these direct descendants of the tower masters, everything other than that can be ignored. It is West himself who needs to solve this matter.

In the past few years, facing this kind of situation, West would give these direct mages a small gift according to the priority, which would include the news that they need to know recently... However, this kind of thing was actually something he encountered. Not much.

The apprentice of the Tower of Black Misty has been in that half-dead state for many years, otherwise it would not be his turn to stay in this position.

This time, however, it was completely different.

West could feel the tense atmosphere... There was obviously a bit of smoke and fire between the returned Tower Master Nicholson and the still-existing Lute who was still outside.

There are so many forces in the magic tower, how can there be no power struggle, but they are all lightly suppressed under the surface of the water by the calm wind on the surface... By the time everyone knows the result, the dark tide surging under the sea has already subsided .

The only hope on West's side, his teacher's teacher, Archmage Cartmanta, obviously intends to wait and see for a while.

He sat on the mountain and watched the tigers fight, but West was between the two tiger claws that were about to face each other!

Originally, the apprentices under his management basically belonged to the outer ring mages in the end, and those who were under his supervision in name but lived in the teacher's side tower, he didn't even have the power to allocate resources.

But now the Tower of Black Misty has come up with an independent allocation of apprentice resources!

Of course West was very happy the first time he got this power... He would not be so stupid as to despise anyone's resources, but some materials, although there is only a little difference on the surface, but a little bit better will make the result worlds different .

Then he fell into a great panic.

A mage with some ability can understand how big a piece of fat this position is now... And the mage who can replace him will definitely not be slower than West's reaction, so, looking into West's eyes recently It's just too much.

So much that he didn't even dare to make any difference to a piece of iron the size of a fingernail.

For West, who had long since given up on the mage's path and determined that a level 12 mage was his destination, it had really been more than ten years since he had worked so hard.

Although West insisted on meditating for two hours every day in order not to let himself regress, and took the time to practice common spells, but that is not hard, right?
Fortunately, I don't know if neither side intends to attract the other's attention and vigilance at such a moment, so they tacitly let West go.

As long as he doesn't make any obvious mistakes, he may still sit here for a while, and his position will not change until all three tower masters return.

He could have earned some retirement money.

However, one of Master Nicholson's students seemed to dislike him very much, and asked him to visit every mage with apprentices to make sure that the resources in the hands of those apprentices had not been taken away for some inexplicable reason.

West hates it!

The mages who really do this are either the greedy types in the direct line of several tower masters. Which one of them will give Wester face?
Or... It must be those outer ring mages who are so poor that they can only survive by depriving their apprentices of resources. Those guys are thick-skinned and black-armed. If they say something wrong, he, West, will die!
How could someone be so vicious!
Of course, West knew very well the few archmages who could speak on behalf of the tower master, and he knew at a glance that it was the internal struggle of the Nicholson faction that implicated him... obviously preparing for the future.

As long as he doesn't complete the task well, this is the best excuse: A guy who can't even guarantee the apprentice's basic life, what qualifications does he have to continue managing the apprentice?
Archmage Nicholson has always had a rule for the open and secret struggles of his students, that is, whoever does the flower work first has to be responsible. to grab.

That's why his students lost their lives in order to compete for the first place!
But this is only their own internal requirements, and the students of Archmage Root will not abide by Nicholson's rules.

What West is most afraid of is not that Archmage Root wants to intervene... The work has been arranged, and he has tried his best to deliver the news, but it is just a little bit of suffering, and he can always get through it past.

What he was afraid of was Archmage Root's side, so he didn't intervene.

The apprentice is just a little bit fatter.

But those resources are not important enough to affect their pursuit of spells in the eyes of the Roots, which have always been relatively strong.

Rutta advocates more elite education on his side, and it is very likely that he will choose to watch the excitement after discovering the movement on Nicholson's side.

After all, a person who can even look up to such a little bit of oil and water, in the eyes of a high-ranking mage, is... a bit self-willed and degrading.

But what would he do in that case?

He has been willing to be humble for decades!
Life is really, big ups and downs, once it falls, you can't afford it!
West sighed softly, and walked into the door tenaciously, he should go see Gilbert first!

This guy doesn't need to be notified in advance... If he is notified in advance, he may not be allowed to enter the door, and maybe some magic circle will be used to eject him directly from the tower of black obsession.

It's not like Gilbert hasn't done it.

He dares to do anything to people he doesn't like. Anyway, Master Luteta won't care about his little hobbies, and it's not killing people. What a big deal! ', these are the original words of Archmage Root who was sued and brought before him.

Although West didn't know how other mages felt when they heard these words, he definitely didn't want to become one of those people who could only use these words to comfort his broken self-esteem.

Hill couldn't help but sat up slightly, and looked at the slightly opened door... What is West doing outside?

Since he dared to say that kind of thing at his door, the matter must have been explained by the Magic Tower, and it was not West himself who came to trouble him for Hilbert, so why did he have to prepare for so long?
Even if this matter will make Gilbert dissatisfied, but he is not really wrong. If he has a temper, he will only attack the real mastermind behind the scenes, okay?

Why bother with a little mage?
Although Gilbert sometimes made fun of people, those guys always poked his feet on purpose, so even if he did so many things, Root would come forward to defend him... Among people of equal status, it can always be directly used as a shield.

Hill really likes Gilbert's style of dealing with people.

West walked into the hall slowly, and saluted respectfully: "Master Gilbert, the Magic Tower hopes that I can communicate with the apprentices to make sure that they have received sufficient resources."

"Who did you offend?"
