Chapter 564: Chapter 156: The Second Half_2
He was just an errand boy.
Link immediately returned to the spare vehicle and drove into the villa.
“Will there be problems?”
Jasmine asked aloud as she scrutinized the divination properties of the “God Devouring Worm”, sensing its potential for good or bad.
“No!”
Link answered definitively.
If there were trouble, they would fight it out.
He believed that as long as skirmishes among the young ones didn’t turn deadly, the higher beings wouldn’t interfere.
This wasn’t just any place; it was the main teaching campus of the College!
The most common haunt of Great Sage Revo and Sage Seuss!
In the old language of Link’s previous life, it was the ‘land of utmost righteousness under the emperor’s feet.’
Rules mattered here.
As long as the higher beings didn’t interfere, Link feared no one when it came to a fight.
An afternoon went by without incident.
Before night fell, Link and Jasmine received notification that they could start classes on the next day.
The next day, their life as advanced students officially began.
Dull, self-disciplined, busy.
Their entire day was occupied to the fullest.
Link primarily chose courses on Elemental Wizardry, True Spirit Wizardry, Potion Study, Alchemy, and Strategy & Battle Tactics;
Jasmine mainly opted for Elemental Wizardry, Beast Controlling Wizardry, Potion Study, Logistics Management, Economics.
The daytime was filled with classes, and they had to work in the Potion Research Group at night.
They also took time to visit the lab given by Dean Frist for conducting their own research and experiments.
With this routine, two months passed in a blink of an eye.
During these two months, the college was calm and peaceful.
But there was a major upheaval in the Wizard World homeland.
The sage promotion ceremony for Wizard Cody was held on Link and Jasmine’s third day in the college.
After that, Sage Cody seemed to have disappeared from public view, his whereabouts unknown.
Just as everyone had nearly forgotten about Sage Cody.
Sage Cody came boldly back into public view and caused a sensation overnight.
Under the college’s arrangement, Cody took over the Mixed Corps composed of the Lucia’s Family’s elite forces!
After a slight reorganization, it undertook a covert mission.
Sage Cody led the Mixed Corps around the surveillance from the Flame and Metal Trading Company and the White Tower Alliance, and quietly appeared behind the interstellar fleet that attacked the rear camp portal in the Desolate World of Palo Sage army.
One side was unprepared, and the other had carefully planned everything.
From careful calculation to unintentional neglect, Cody and his gang were victorious.
They destroyed a main force warship, captured three secondary warships, and all the wizards on the destroyed main force warship.
Ravensmouth City held a grand celebration for this event.
The college even let Cody present the captured wizards.
This act was undoubtedly a counterattack to the attack by the Flame and Metal Trading Company and the White Tower Alliance.
In addition to slapping them in the face, it also tore their faces apart and stomped on them.
This show of readiness for war made the entire Mitchell District, even the Tudor region, seethe with excitement.
Was it really ok to go to such lengths just for the sake of face?
Like wise-cracking spectators at a play, all the wizards who browsed the forums in their free time started to gossip.
They were looking forward to how the Flame and Metal Trading Company and the White Tower Alliance would respond.
Would they swallow their anger and act as if nothing had happened, or would they counter-attack and reclaim their glory?
After all, the high-level resources that the Supreme Council promised to allocate to Ravensmouth College have not yet been released.
In other words, Sage Seuss has not yet completed his promotion.
Even if Ravensmouth College is the top power in Mitchell District, even below the Great Sage Mitchell’s Tower, if it had to fight two battles, the odds were not great.
Just when many individuals and organizations were shocked and could not understand, when they focused their attention on the feud between Ravensmouth College, Flame and Metal Trading Company, and the White Tower Alliance…
Another shocking news spread.
Mesopotamia University decided to reconcile with Ravensmouth College and handed over the core members of Lucia’s Family.
Dean Frist didn’t even have to show his face.
Sage Cody, representing Ravensmouth College, accepted these people in public.
Then he killed a batch of Lucia’s Family’s elders and some mid-level members in front of all the witnessing wizards, declaring this as the college’s initial punishment for Lucia’s Family’s betrayal. Whether there would be further retaliation would be another matter.
Such a bloody scene didn’t shock the attending wizards, of course.
What shocked the wizards was the college’s flaunting and hubris.
As if they could do whatever they wanted without any concern for anyone or any power in the Mitchell District.
I do as I please, with no regard for anyone else.
For a while, the attention of the entire Tudor region, not just the Mitchell District, was completely captivated by Ravensmouth College.
Mesopotamia University, which capitulated, didn’t garner much attention, even after lifting its lockdown.
It was merely a fallen old power.
Even if the founder, Level Eight Great Sage of Mesopotamia, still had outstanding personal strength, unfortunately, the younger generation wasn’t performing well.
Mesopotamia University, Principal’s office.
Principal Leopold of Mesopotamia and Dean Frist sat across from each other.
Both of them were relaxed, showing no concern for the outside controversy and public opinion.
Putting down his glass, Principal Leopold praised: “That Link Grande of your college really uses his brain well. These processed plant leaves make for an excellent drink when brewed. It has quite a taste.”
