Surviving the Fourth Calamity

Chapter 2325 Coyle's Enlightenment
Coyle tried to bury his head lower, not daring to breathe.

Rojas behind him never raised his head from the beginning.

Logically speaking, Coyle and Rojas not only accepted a mission that was certain to end in death, but also escaped by luck and the help of Russell. Then, they honestly laid the groundwork before Root's arrival and prepared the information perfectly. They should not have behaved so humbly.

However, the two people who had personally collected all the information in this notebook did not want to show their presence at all.

In fact, from some of the performances of Aislinn and Oliva, it can be seen that although Ruth is very good to his students, he is also very traditional.

Some other mages don't care much about the master-disciple etiquette, but Rutte has always insisted on it... Maybe it's because he hopes to use these to commemorate the good times in the past.

Like today, he said nothing and didn't wait for Oliva to help him pass on the message like in the past. This only proved that Ruth's emotions were completely out of control.

Even in the Tower of Xia, when he saw Aislin turning from a beloved disciple into a time bomb, he remained very stable... Even though he was always trying to find a way to help Aislin find a glimmer of hope, Ruth was still able to maintain his calm and composed appearance.

Coyle already knew a little about his teacher, so he knew that Root would definitely explode at any moment.

Even if Root later realizes that Coyle and Rojas did nothing wrong, what can he do?

Coyle knew that Root would definitely provide a lot of good resources as compensation, and even apologize sincerely.

But he still didn't want to suffer that pain.

Didn’t you see that even Oliva, who was the most talkative, retreated without saying a word?

I don’t know if he missed Aislinn very much.

Usually at this time, the only person who can break this terrible atmosphere is that lady.

As for Gilbert, who has a special identity, the relationship between him and Root is actually quite complicated.

Coyle actually wouldn't consider that person to be Root's closest and most trusted student.

He always felt that the reason why Root was so good to Gilbert after his spiritual sea was damaged was actually because he had a compensatory mentality.

Especially after getting more information recently, Coyle felt this way even more... It was inevitable that the Heinarson family would be assigned to the Black Mystery Tower. Wouldn't all the suffering Gilbert had endured be in vain?
With his qualifications, it is entirely possible for him to complete the advancement to a high-level apprentice before arriving at the Black Mystery Tower.

However, if they wanted to make it look natural that the Heinarson family was taken away by the Black Mystery Tower, they had to create a situation where they were "forced to do so" and where they fought for their lives but still failed.

At that time, Gilbert was actually quite confident that he could succeed in taking the risk... He was not really a fool.

It is normal to fight for the family, but when the family still has a glimmer of hope, he will definitely not take a 50% risk.

That's why Gilbert's failure was so tragic at that time.

Many people thought that he lost control of the vortex in his spiritual sea because he was too nervous and under too much pressure.

So many people behind the Black Tower think that Root overestimates Gilbert. Isn't it because they think this guy is too reckless and lacks control over himself? In fact, he has no future at all!

It is precisely because the senior brothers and sisters around Rutt are people like Oliva and Aislin that everyone thinks that Rut's cherishment of Gilbert is understandable.

Although that guy has a bad temper and is stubborn to the point of being reckless, he is much better than the other two in terms of how he conducts himself and does things.

I wonder how many people think that if Gilbert was the first disciple, the power under Root would definitely be stronger!

But in the past few days following the undead, Coyle saw many secrets that his past self could not see.

He found that Ruth was really a very strange person.

Ruth really felt guilty towards those who suffered misfortune because of some of his actions...of course, they had to be people he liked.

We will definitely give certain compensation within our ability.

Moreover, this kind of compensation was not intended to appease the other party, he just gave it out and was done with it.

Moreover, he would not feel that he owed the other party nothing just because he gave this compensation.

As long as possible, he will definitely be nice to the other person.

For example, Gilbert’s uniqueness in the school.

But even when he felt guilty and needed to do something for Gilbert, Root never failed to do it... At most, he would give some compensation later.

Coyle now truly understood why Gilbert, even though he had become such a powerful being, had no intention of dealing with the teacher who had treated him well in the past.

Although he had more contact with Hilbert, Coyle was still quite confident in his judgment... He would never have anything to do with a guy like Master Hill whom he looked down upon, let alone impersonating the other person's identity.

In other words, Gilbert could never be a person without bottom line.

But Coyle only heard that he seemed to have given something to the Heinarson family, but he did not appear in front of the masters of the Black Mystery Tower.

Of course, Gilbert was not completely heartless. On the surface, he still took care of the Black Mystery Tower.

That is, I don't have much to say to my 'mentor'.

At that time, Coyle just thought that Gilbert was like this because he was abandoned by Root and the Black Mystery Tower... He must have failed to hold on and was replaced by Archmage Hill.

Coyle is such a good communicator, but he has such a cold relationship with such an important person like Gilbert. Doesn't it mean that in his heart, Gilbert will be dead sooner or later?

The people in the Black Mystery Tower all have similar ideas to his.

Although Gilbert had obviously been abandoned by most of the family, blood ties always make a difference, not to mention that his immediate family members were still in Heinarsen!

However, if this was all a setup from the beginning... it might not make any difference to the Heinelson family, but to Gilbert, it would...

Coyle himself was a person who was very keen on the path of a mage, so he felt terrified just thinking about it.

So, Coyle is really afraid of Root.

He is not afraid of bad guys.

What if someone wants to cheat him or kill him?

There is no one in this world who lives a comfortable life...including the children of big families and the direct descendants of mages.

Everyone is struggling to live.

Life is important, but not that important.

It all depends on what kind of enemy and situation you are facing.

But people like Root... Coyle, who knew the whole story, admired him, but he sincerely felt that it was better to stay away from him.

If, before he knew everything, he was still thinking about how to use his experiences during this period to gain benefits from Rutte after returning, now Coyle just planned to live his ordinary life!

Upgrading slowly, and reaching the 9th ring in the distant future, is better than following a teacher who puts revenge above all his emotions and reason.

Not to mention, Ruth is now suffering an unimaginable blow and has wasted tens of thousands of years of his life.

Coyle lowered his head and glanced at Oliva, whose expression was very determined, and Rojas, who was trembling slightly behind him... Anyway, it didn't matter if he took a step back, there would always be someone around Root who was willing to keep up.

Coyle didn't find Oliva's choice strange.

Although their senior brother is a brainless and troublesome person, he has absolute and sincere respect for Ruth... Although he may not love what the teacher loves, he will definitely hate what the teacher hates.

Coyle wasn't sure what was going on with Rojas.

This female mage was obviously similar to him at the beginning, both of them only thought about protecting themselves.

But after reading those materials, I don’t know why I could resonate with Ruth.

Coyle guessed that it was just those things...Rojas didn't seem to be from the Black Mystery Tower, but came from other realms.

The Tower of Despair is so deceptive, maybe it will also harm her hometown.

There must be a reason why she cherishes her female apprentices so much and does not have much contact with other mages of the same level.

On the contrary, Coyle could better understand those female mages who lived an unscrupulous life...If Aislinn hadn't played herself into trouble, her behavior of flirting with pretty boys would be more in line with the behavior pattern of a powerful female mage.

Wait, who is that?

Coyle's eyes were fixed on a 5th-ring mage behind Oliva.

Why did Felice Heinarson come along?

Root couldn't expect Russell and Carpenter to sacrifice their own interests to help Felice, right?

Judging from Coyle's recent interactions with the brother and sister, they are indeed not that cruel, but they can firmly hold their bottom line.

Even if they knew that Felice was in danger, their more likely choice would be to pay the undead to save Felice's life.

Moreover, this only works if Felice behaves honestly and obediently.

Coyle looked up in confusion at Root, who was flipping through a book with an increasingly worse complexion, almost the same color as the gray-black ground... Could there be something that he hadn't noticed?
-
Ruth was actually much calmer than others thought.

In the past, he always thought about his future, always hoped that he could survive and lead the Black Mystery Tower to further progress, so he always had to consider a lot when doing things.

He knew that he had hurt many people and saved many people.

Although many things are done helplessly...but Ruth has always known that evil is evil.

If he hadn't been persistent and hopeful in his heart, he would have given up long ago.

The reason why Ruth was chosen was because he had a conscience... Otherwise, what would be the use even if the teachers were nice to him.

How long can a moment of gratitude last?
