Chapter 904: Similar Experiences
Nataya still needs to rest and recover in the rest area.
Including Sean and Lena, they have just come out of the dangerous place. The fortress command has not issued them any tasks for the time being, and the physical condition of the two is not a big problem.
The tempering in the underground magma river for several months did cause great damage to their physical load at first, but now they have basically recovered and have made great progress on the original basis.
Sean, who has just escaped from the predicament, can't wait to devote himself to the experiment again.
Whether it is the experience of the underground world, or Lena's nearly perfect evolutionary form at this time, or his own situation that is about to enter the third level.
These are all experimental topics that Sean can directly study.
Especially the latter, Sean has a hunch that even if he has not solved the surface mystery of the embers of the dark fire, relying only on his original spell foundation, it is enough to complete the elemental qualitative change process required by the third-level magician.
In other words, as long as Sean wants, he can be promoted to the third level at any time.

Although the decisive battle on the Akalie Plain has ended, it does not mean that the war in the entire Gumo plane has completely ended.
The fourth-level Golo Earthworm King is still fleeing, and the Wizard World Legion still needs to control and occupy other areas of this world, especially the underground world that is as vast as the surface.
As early as when Sean returned to the main base of the fortress, he received news from the command center that the fifth-level magician Dark Fire wanted to meet him.
But until the end of the war, Sean did not meet this master.
Since the end of the decisive battle on the Akalie Plain, the war in the entire Gumo plane has lasted for nearly three years.
The main reason is that the area of the Gumo plane is really not small, and there is an even more vast underground world.
Although the resistance in front of the invasion of the wizard civilization army is already negligible, it is not as easy as it sounds to occupy and conquer so many areas.
Sean and his three companions signed a five-year war contract on the Gumo plane.
But when the war was roughly in its fourth year, basically no combat missions were issued.
A large number of non-staff knights and magician corps gradually evacuated from the Gumo plane and returned to the wizard world from this year.
Most of those who are still stationed in various places in the Gumo plane are registered magicians of the Dark Fire Holy Tower.
However, the number of these magicians is not too large.
Although Sean is an outsider, because he personally participated in the Gumo plane war, he also came into contact with many secrets of the Dark Fire Holy Tower over the past few years.
It seems that the entire Dark Fire Holy Tower is currently facing the dilemma of a large number of registered magicians leaving the Holy Tower.
This trend of leaving is not only reflected in the combat corps of the Gumo plane.
Even the group of academic magicians of the Dark Fire Holy Tower far away in the wizard world began to leave in large numbers.
The fifth-level magician Dark Fire took advantage of the loophole in the rules and "accidentally injured" many registered magicians of the Holy Tower in the decisive battle. The consequences finally broke out completely as time went by.
In the past few years, the Dark Fire Master had no time to summon Sean. In addition to being busy chasing the King of the Golo Earthworm, it is estimated that the difficulties and the wave of departures that the Holy Tower is facing have also made this level 5 magician overwhelmed.
Almost all registered magicians of the Holy Tower will sign a magic contract with the Holy Tower for a fixed period of time after joining the Holy Tower.
The Holy Tower is not a public toilet. You can come and go as you please.
When Master Archimedes of the Azure Source Holy Tower left, the reason why he was able to take away a group of direct disciples and grandchildren was that Lu Lianman saw that Master Archimedes had served the Holy Tower for many years and had made great contributions, so she did not pursue the breach of contract of those magicians who were still within the contract period.
Otherwise, if you leave the Holy Tower without reason, you will also have to pay a certain amount of compensation to the Holy Tower.
At present, the Dark Fire Holy Tower is experiencing a wave of departures. Sean is not sure whether those registered magicians have paid enough liquidated damages.
However, based on what he has seen during this period, the number of registered magicians in the Dark Fire Holy Tower has dropped by 60%.
And the number is still increasing.
With such a large-scale departure... Sean is more inclined to believe that the tower master did not ask for liquidated damages from these registered magicians.
This is understandable, after all, it is the tower master who did something unkind.
If he really asks for liquidated damages from all magicians, even if he can temporarily curb the large-scale departure, his reputation will definitely be as bad as it can be after this fermentation.
Even if he can avoid punishment by exploiting the loopholes in the rules of wizard civilization, I believe that no magician will join it.
Can an empty shell holy tower without formal magicians still be considered a holy tower?
The fact that the Dark Fire Master did not ask for liquidated damages from all the magicians who left can also be regarded as his keeping a part of the incense.
...
It may be that the atmosphere has been a bit depressing recently, or it may be that the war in the Gumo plane is coming to an end.
Especially half a year ago, another war broke out in the south of this plane. It is said that the Dark Fire Tower Master has captured the King of the Golo Earthworm alive.
Sean thought that the war was basically over and his employment with the Dark Fire Holy Tower was about to expire.
When he was about to leave this low-level plane with Nataya and Renna and return to the wizard world.
The fifth-level magician Dark Fire suddenly summoned Sean.
The place where the Dark Fire summoned Sean was located in a giant space fortress hovering in the sky of this low-level plane.
Due to the departure of a large number of registered magicians of the Holy Tower, and the departure of most of the participating knights and magician corps from this plane.
Therefore, this space fortress with a diameter of 30,000 meters seemed empty and silent after Sean arrived.
Sean met this powerful fifth-level magician in the main control room. In the huge main control room, apart from the tower master, there were only a dozen or so low-level magicians who were responsible for the most basic operation and maintenance.
The scene in the main control room also indirectly reflected the depression and loneliness of the Dark Fire Holy Tower.
However, this Dark Fire Master did not show much dejection. When he saw this master for the first time, Sean couldn't help but tremble.
Before, on the plane battlefield, because he was too far away, Sean didn't have any deep feelings.
But now facing this fifth-level magician up close, Sean felt a sense of familiarity.
This familiar feeling, of course, was not because Sean knew the tower master, but because Sean felt a familiar trait in the tower master - the temperament of a black magician.
Under the other party's calm and peaceful black robe, Sean seemed to see an unruly and indifferent look in his eyes.
Sean had been in the black magic group for a long time and had been to the black domain.
The only difference between the Dark Fire Master in front of him and those black magicians in the black domain is that his arrogance and unruliness are not fully revealed, but deeply suppressed under the magic robe.
This is definitely a powerful magician that no one can afford to provoke!
Although Sean's uncle Gagaru also has an extremely violent aura, it is completely different from the extremely cold and perverted temperament of the black magician.
Sean did not think that the Dark Fire Master was a black magician. The extremely perfect rules and mechanisms of the wizard world would not allow a black magician to openly build a holy tower in the wizard continent.
Temperament does not mean anything, and Sean does not need to worry that he is facing a moody black magician.
"Hehe, you little guy seems to be very much my taste."
"Well... you are a little different from the other little guys I have come into contact with over the years." The Dark Fire Master laughed lowly as soon as he came up.
His low laugh broke the cold and quiet atmosphere in the surrounding environment.
"When I was an apprentice, I was kidnapped by a black magician, and later I was fortunately rescued by the holy tower."
"Now I am a disciple of the master of the Green Source Holy Tower of the Green Source Land." Sean replied respectfully, not only indicating his origin, but also intentionally or unintentionally pointing out his backer.
[A novel app that has been running stably for many years, comparable to the old version of the book-chasing artifact, and the source-changing app used by old bookworms,]
It must be said that Sean is somewhat afraid of this group of black magicians.
From the fact that the Dark Fire Master dared to order to fire at his own magician army, it can be seen that this must not be an existence that sticks to common sense.
He can see that the Dark Fire Master has a trace of the characteristics of a black magician, and the Dark Fire Master can naturally see that Sean's temperament is different from that of an ordinary magician.
In fact, Sean's experience in the city of Mosobra in his youth has always influenced Sean.
Although he has changed a lot over the years, some essential things will not change.
Therefore, Sean also knows why the Dark Fire Master said that he would like his taste.
Sure enough, after hearing Sean's answer, the Dark Fire Master was obviously stunned.
Then, he laughed in an extremely gloomy and cold voice: "So that's how it is, what a coincidence!"
"I was also an apprentice rescued from the black magician."
"Fortunately, I was only a quasi-magician back then, still an apprentice."
"Otherwise, if I had been promoted to the next level, I would have been directly wiped out by those law enforcement knights and magicians, and become a merit in their task book!" Master Dark Fire laughed.
After hearing the answer from Master Dark Fire, Sean was obviously stunned.
