Surviving the Fourth Calamity

Chapter 1713 The Hynelson Family Leaking Everywhere

Pruitt bid farewell with a cold face, embarrassment and unwillingness to give up were written in his eyes that were trying to lower his eyes.

Hilbert didn't even intend to get up to see him off... This guy's face is a bit thick, and it must be bright if given some sunshine.

Speaking of which, he is indeed from the same division as West.

I don't know how Cartman Tower, who has always been indifferent and serious, cultivated such a student?
Normally speaking, students don't have to learn the style of their teachers!

For example, the students of Lute are all domineering with a little protection. When they need help, they will first find their own people... and they know very well what is the exchange of benefits. The opponent loses money.

How should I put it... They are more in line with the concept of traditional mages. Of course, the value that the other party does not know will not be counted, but they will definitely not do business that the other party knows will lose money.

Picking up leaks and receiving big gifts from others are two different things... No one will give away something for nothing, unless he thinks he can get something bigger from you.

Moreover, magic is their greatest pursuit in life, and they will not bind their hands and feet because of some insignificant interests.

Even if such mages are not kind-hearted, they still have a bottom line because they understand that everything has a price.

Pruitt and West are not the same...and Pruitt is even worse. With his depth of thought, it's really no wonder he can't be promoted to the eighth-ring mage.

So, maybe, maybe, even if it doesn't appear on the surface, that evil inside can still be smelled out by someone who has been in contact for a long time?
West is more normal. Although he is not promising, at least he knows how to look at people.

Of course Hilbert knew what Pruitt came to find him for, but he didn't even know what Gilbert needed, or the special effect of the mental recovery potion, so he dared to take one that looked valuable but didn't have it at all. Meaningful things come to him.

Huh~
Most importantly, he never thought about why Gilbert didn't care about the news at all?
Hill felt that Pruitt was a little overly anxious because he didn't want to be sent to hunt down Iron Dragon... Tsk~ Pruitt has been following Cartman Tower, did he find something?

For example, the relationship between the Tower of Sia and his teacher is a bit too close, and there are even Cartman Tower's direct students in the Tower of Sia?
Otherwise, why would he come up with the idea of ​​a cheat book that is of some benefit to mages, but its main use is still in the apprenticeship stage?

Hill knew how word got out.

According to the calculation of time, the Heinelson family should have made some progress... And this family, which seems to be airtight, is actually full of loopholes.

Gilbert didn't plan to take care of that much. Rather than making the family look impeccable, it's better to let these people who don't know anything at all live a brighter life.

When the Hynarson family was placed in that position, Gilbert knew exactly what kind of danger the family was facing.

When he later went to transform the magic circle of their residence for Ulrich's people, and strengthen the defense of the family library by the way, Heinelson and his people, apart from the things contained in the strange things, Basically, there is nothing that the archmages outside don't know.

And everyone knows that these storage tools have been inspected by the Tower of Seattle, and the resources are indeed there, but they are not worth enough to tempt an archmage.

When Gilbert under the protection of Root is still alive, no one will use their brains... This refers to those high-ranking mages who have the ability to secretly spy on the Heinelson family.

Even if a low-level mage has the heart, he doesn't have the ability.

Hilbert knew very well that Ulrich, who had been paying attention to the two apprentices, hadn't moved much during this period, and he should have gone back to change his standard runes.

Gilbert, the nephew, really hoped to share some of the pressure on his uncle. Although he still failed to become a mage due to his limited talent, his foundation was actually very good.

In other words, the rune memory he needs to replace in the spiritual sea is not too much.

And for so many years, he has never given up his daily meditation time, so his spiritual sea has not been completely solidified... Ordinary apprentices, as long as they meditate for a period of time, they can maintain their spiritual sea from sluggishness.

Anyway, there is no hope of advancing, and sometimes meditation is a kind of torture for these apprentices.

In the face of futility, no matter how determined a person may choose to give up, so Ulrich's behavior is really rare among dozens of mage apprentices.

But it may be that every time he sees Gilbert's difficult struggle, Ulrich feels pain from the bottom of his heart, and he really persisted until now.

Therefore, it can be regarded as finding a glimmer of life for myself... Originally, a mage apprentice in the normal world could become a cheap mage by contacting with magic energy for a long time, but the elemental energy in this world is relatively dead. It is everyone's dream, and every child has the opportunity to learn spells... The magic tower attaches great importance to children, so there are so many mages.

But it also makes it impossible for people with insufficient qualifications to become mages to be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so mage apprentices really live a degenerate life... leaving more descendants is basically their daily life.

That is to say, the number of women in this world is actually relatively small, and women with mage qualifications are even more precious, which makes the relationship between men and women quite equal on the surface.

As for the truth...from the fact that Pruitt dared to come here with a bottle of potion that Gilbert would not be able to use until how many years later, and Carpenter's name was not qualified to say it from his mouth Next, you can see it.

The gap in physical strength will be further magnified due to innate conditions when food is scarce.

Now the world can still maintain the balance on the surface, because the magic tower is actually supporting ordinary people to the maximum extent, even if the premise is that mages must be given an incomparably noble status.

Although the reality is cruel, no one can blame it.

But once that balance line is surpassed, such as the Tower of Black Misty, mages will definitely choose to protect themselves first.

Hill always felt that the Tower of Black Fan would end up like this, because the Tower of Sia was testing the bottom line of the world.

It's not just whether mages still have their own independent will and don't want to rely on others to survive... When human beings are pushed to the bottom line and are about to be smashed, they choose to fight with their backs. Which one is more, even the well-informed big devils can't figure it out.

Another one is whether the will of this world has really completely dissipated.

The accident of the Tower of Defense, the existence behind the Tower of Sia, it is impossible not to see the faintly existing hand, but they can also see the weakness of that hand and the future that is about to disappear into nothingness.

Devils are really good at eroding a world step by step.

But from the day when Hill entered this world and began to train Russell, and the day when Gilbert's soul was taken away by the river Styx, the remaining will in this world probably began to slowly condense again.

It's just that it can no longer exist independently.

After all, it is impossible for Hill to compete with Styx for this world that is biased towards the law of destruction, so this place must be kept in captivity by Styx.

As for what will happen to Russell in the future... At least so far, this child is only good in Hill's heart.

Hill is very good at finding the strengths of others and giving them admiring glances, but it doesn't mean that these strengths can touch his heart and make him willing to regard Russell as his true student.

After so many years, there are not many people who can really walk into his heart.

While he's friendly, he's actually quite aloof.
