Chapter 393: Chapter 100: Such Ruins, Such Reunion_2
Needless to say, Link is the main leader of this exchange study program.
At his command, the scattered apprentices quickly arranged themselves in order of height, forming two neat lines.
“In a nutshell, no matter how rushed the exchange program scheduled by the academy is, you should all firmly resolve to give everything you have and bring glory to the academy. We depart now, and the specifics will be handed out after we arrive,” he said.
After a brief mobilisation, Link swung his hand and led the way to the “bus” hovercraft parked not far away.
After getting on the bus, Link directly sat down in the compartment at the front of the bus.
Peck Murphy took it upon himself to handle the task of counting heads and confirming names.
The role of a Vice Leader, after all, is to assist the leader.
After completing the count and confirmation, Peck also entered the compartment.
Soon, the bus started up, its destination being the Inter-Dimensional Teleportation Portal.
Frankly speaking, Link still didn’t have a full understanding of the exchange study program.
Among all the unknowns, the Special Ruin World, which was barely mentioned in the introduction, was the most confusing.
However, for some reason, when Jasmine mentioned the exchange program in the morning, Link felt compelled to participate.
This feeling was odd.
It was like an intuition, or a kind of premonition known as “The way of sincerity that can foresee the future.”
It was also like he had been inspired by some presence in the universe.
Whether it was intuition, premonition, or inspiration, in this Extraordinary World where the mind and material are seen as equally important, they all held significant reference value.
Link decided to follow his intuition, premonition, or inspiration.
He was quietly looking forward to what this exchange study program would bring him.
With his eyes fixed on the rapidly receding scenery outside the window, Link’s mind wandered.
The bus was fast.
It quickly arrived at the Inter-Dimensional Teleportation Portal.
After leading the twenty apprentices off the bus, Peck naturally communicated with the Tower Spirit responsible for the daily operation and perimeter defence of the Portal to set the destination for the teleportation.
“We’re ready to go, Leader.”
After negotiating, Peck came to Link’s side and reported solemnly.
“Good job.”
Link nodded at Peck and then turned to the twenty apprentices. “Our main leader and two vice leaders are Lanny Taylor, Luna Colonna, and Gillian Clark respectively. Any objections?”
New Blood, Pure Blood, Half Blood; the distribution of the three leader positions was even-handed, neither biased nor partial.
Link believed that there was no problem with this appointment.
Especially Lanny Taylor, with her highest Wizard Qualifications and best overall performance, was absolutely qualified to be the main leader.
The reason he didn’t nominate Linn as a main or vice leader was due to Link’s own considerations.
If not publicly appointed, selfishness can thrive.
If publicly appointed, fairness is necessary.
This wouldn’t bode well for Linn, who was cunning and liked to play tricks.
“Any objections?”
Link asked again, “If there are none, let’s set off. After departure, the leaders will have to take responsibility. Don’t let me down and warrant punishment.”
None of the twenty apprentices said a word.
Under the current circumstances, the Brotherhood Group definitely wouldn’t voice their objections.
Others who were somewhat disgruntled, such as the effeminate man, the fair fat man, the cold woman, and the burly man, felt they were not inferior to Luna Colonna but didn’t dare to voice their dissent.
They were kind of scared of Link bringing up old scores; they didn’t dare to provoke trouble deliberately.
“Let’s move on.”
After waiting for a while and still hearing no dissent, demonstrating a full display of democracy, Link waved his hand and first entered the Inter-Dimensional Teleportation Portal.
Following a familiar sense of dissociation from time and space, Link found himself at a transit hub of a star fortress.
The Intelligent Puppet arranged by the academy had been waiting nearby for a while. Upon seeing Link, it immediately handed him an encrypted cerebral brain.
Gesturing for Peck and the twenty apprentices who were following him to wait, Link used Karim’s private decryption method to unlock the cerebral brain and review the contents within.
The more he read, the more shocked he was, furrowing his brows in concern.
Handing the cerebral brain to Peck, he said, “Tell them what’s inside.”
Link then walked to the starboard window next to the transit hub and silently observed the Special Ruin World, which the Wizard World had been monitoring for a full six thousand years, located in front of the star fortress.
Peck’s voice rang out:
“As we all know, the universe is multifold, with multiple similar parallel universes in existence.
Our Wizard World is no exception.
In some parallel universes, there are parallel worlds similar to our Wizard World, yet vastly different.
The Special Ruin World we’re about to visit is a parallel world that has been utterly destroyed due to endless destructive wars.
This parallel world has become an extraordinarily unique celestial body due to a yet unsolved mechanism that caused it to break away from its universe.
When it’s observed, it truly exists in our universe;
When it’s not observed, it doesn’t exist in our universe.
The origin of Intelligence Mechanism Wizards came from the continuous exploration of this Special Ruin World.
The content of your exchange study this time is to explore and pioneer a newly discovered area in this Special Ruin World, searching for valuable knowledge, items, and so on.
Some dangers might occur during the exploration process.
You can choose to cooperate with the team from Shadow City, or you can choose to attack them.”
