This wizard only wants to take students.

Chapter 61 Students

"You all go down first, we have something to discuss." Bennett looked at the students and the maid Fia behind him, smiled and waved at them.

However, Lilia was not so gentle towards her students. Her aura was released all at once, and the cold breath made several weaker apprentices even look pale and their eyebrows looked a little frosted.

These students also tactfully withdrew respectfully.

"Master Lucian, I'll go down too." Carly saluted Lucian with great insight.

"Well, get more familiar with the bow and arrow, especially the quick casting part." Lucian whispered to Carly, then followed Bennett and Lillia to the lounge on the top floor to discuss some details of the division of labor at the beginning of the mission.

After the three leading instructors left the deck, the students and servants became somewhat active, some returning to their cabins to rest, some overlooking the magnificent scenery outside the alchemical airship.

At this time, Carly walked gently to the side of the ship and gently stroked the airship that she was extremely familiar with.

At the beginning, she came to the Gray Bone Academy on another airship, but she did not receive the same treatment as now. Instead, she could only be piled up in the storage cabin at the bottom of the airship like cargo, just like a large number of new recruits.

But now, when I follow Mentor Lucian onto the airship again, my status and treatment are completely different.

This made Carly feel a little complicated, and she thought of many things.

"Hello, you must be Master Lucian's student, right? We are both students of Teacher Lilia. I am Ruth and he is Gagarin. This is Filler, Master Bennett's student. You are alone here, would you like to join us for a drink?"

Just when Carly was feeling emotional, three wizard apprentices came together and walked straight towards Carly, who was alone at the moment. One of the female apprentices spoke directly and extended an invitation to Carly.

Carly was slightly stunned, because the three wizard apprentices who invited her at this time were all second-level wizard apprentices, and their auras were extremely strong. They were obviously elites who had accumulated a long time in the second-level wizard apprentice stage. But she didn't know why these three people found her?
Thinking of this, Carly paused for a moment, then accepted the invitation of the three apprentices, and the four of them walked into the beverage room on the airship together.

"Everyone inside, get out!" As soon as they entered the cabin, Gagarin and Filler released their aura, which immediately scared out the two apprentices who were resting inside.

Afterwards, Gagarin closed the door and set up a soundproof magic array. He then glanced at his "selected" companions and grinned, revealing what he thought was a relatively gentle smile.

"You should know that the mission that the instructor and several adults have accepted this time has a very high mortality rate. As their students, we don't have to participate in this mission according to the rules. After all, it's not us who are forced to do the mission, but them."

"And the reason why they insisted on having us, including those weak first-level wizard apprentices, come along is to let us serve as their cannon fodder and pathfinders."

When saying this, Gagarin was obviously a little unwilling.

After all, he is actually not far from the realm of a third-level wizard apprentice. As long as he accumulates more experience, he will be able to break away from Lilia and become an independent wizard. He can even find a formal wizard as his teacher and obtain better resources and support.

But this time, restricted by the contract he had signed with Lilia, he had to take on the mission and take part in the adventure. If he succeeded, the reward would belong to Lilia, and he could only drink the soup. If he messed up, he would probably be the first to die. Hearing his words, the other two, except Carly, nodded. They were both the best among the students, so they naturally cherished their lives even more!
However, Carly's eyes flickered a little. After all, she had to argue with mentor Lucian to get on the airship.

Otherwise, Carly felt that Mentor Lucian would not agree to let her follow him on the mission.

However, seeing the indignant looks of the other three wizard apprentices, Carly would not be so foolish as to speak out her true feelings directly. Instead, she remained silent and listened to what the three wizard apprentices said, trying to determine whether their so-called plan would affect Mentor Lucian.

Gagarin and the others had no idea that an alternative or natural "traitor" like Carly would appear in their team. After all, they did not believe that there existed a mentor like Lucian who was solely concerned about his students and did not plan to gain anything from them.

Therefore, in their view, the members within their small group should be considered a natural alliance of interests.

"We just want to protect ourselves!" At this time, Gagarin had already said the most passionate part. He waved his fists vigorously twice, as if venting his dissatisfaction under Lilia's oppression for a long time.

"We strive for our own path as wizards, not for the future of our mentors!"

When he thought he had aroused the emotions, Gagarin told them the goal he wanted the other three to work together on this time: intelligence, that is, each of them should find out some of their mentor's plans and arrangements.

This is also the reason why they invited Carly, a little first-level wizard apprentice, to join their "Self-Preservation Alliance" circle. After all, Carly is the only student under Lucian.

Carly was a little restless at this time. She felt like a white crow mixed in with a group of black crows. Although they still regarded her as one of their own for the time being, it seemed that she would soon be unable to pretend any longer.

What's more, what's even more terrible is that at this moment, the other three people all looked at Carly, and there seemed to be a hint of encouragement in their eyes.

Carly was silent for a moment, looking at these guys who seemed ready to rise up at any time, and swallowed her saliva.

"Well... I feel that Mentor Lucian is quite good to me." Carly hesitated, but still couldn't go against her conscience.

Silence. The originally harmonious environment was made silent by Carly's words.

The other three apprentices looked at each other, but didn't know what to do.

After all, Lucian was still on the airship! If they attacked Carly, they might be killed by Lucian!
"But I am willing to cooperate with you." Carly's eyes flickered slightly. She felt that as a student of mentor Lucian, she now needed to start thinking about the problem from the mentor's perspective.

By cooperating with these traitors, he might be able to get some useful information from them for Mentor Lucian. However, he has no experience in this area, so after this, he will need to ask Mentor Lucian for advice.
