Chapter 238 Bloody Battle
"Within ten days, all apprentices are required to return to the academy?"
Enzo frowned and said, "What happened that made the dean personally issue a recall order!"
The apprentices whispered in the hall.
"You will know the specifics after you return to the academy." Ulysses coughed and said, "Three days later, the academy will send a floating ark, and Ural Wizard will personally take you back to the academy."
...
North City Manor.
In the bedroom, Enzo casually tore off his gray robe, threw it on the hanger, and sat on the bed.
"Things are too strange." His eyes flickered.
This war between the three major organizations almost spread throughout the Dark Extreme Region, and the situation was developing more violently, but now it suddenly stopped.
Everything seemed very strange, as if the three major organizations that were fighting fiercely suddenly stopped the war for some special reasons.
"Forget it, there are no clues, and it's meaningless to speculate randomly."
Enzo shook his head, took out the Phantom Raven Medal from his arms, and said, "Since the war is over, it shouldn't be dangerous to contact the instructor now."
He injected magic power into the medal and touched a rune left by Gustav.
In the room, a wave of magic power surged.
"Huh? Is that Enzo?" Gustav's voice came from the medal, a little hoarse, saying, "You should have received the order to return to the academy in Leiguang City. What's the matter with contacting me now?"
"You also know this news?" Enzo's heart moved, and he hurriedly asked, "The war is over, and the order for all apprentices to return to the academy was really issued by the dean?"
There was a silence in the medal.
After a while, Gustav spoke again, hoarsely, "The news is true, but strictly speaking, this war has not really ended yet."
"What?" Enzo was shocked.
"The war between the academy and the wizards has completely ended." Gustav paused, his tone a little serious, and said, "However, the war between apprentices is about to begin!"
"War between apprentices? What does that mean?" Enzo frowned.
"Enzo, do you know the reason for the war between the three major organizations this time?" Without answering Enzo's question, Gustav suddenly asked back.
"The reason for the war?" Enzo was stunned, shook his head, and said honestly, "I don't know."
There are many rumors about the cause of the war between the three major organizations, but everyone has different opinions, and no one can give a real answer.
"The reason why the three major organizations in the Dark Extreme Domain went to war is actually to compete for something." Gustav spoke slowly and said in a deep voice, "Coordinates!"
"Coordinates? What is that?"
"The specific use of the coordinates is a secret. When you become a formal wizard, you will naturally know it." Gustav paused and said, "Now I can only tell you that thing is related to the promotion of the third-level wizard to the fourth level!"
Enzo's pupils shrank, and his thoughts were churning in his heart.
No wonder the war started by the three major organizations this time has spread throughout the Dark Pole Domain. It turns out that they are fighting for something related to the promotion to the fourth-level wizard.
"A year ago, the academy was attacked by the leader of the [Skeleton Castle]. Was it also because of the [coordinates]?"
"Yes." Ulysses said hoarsely, "The leaders and deans of the three major organizations in the Dark Pole Domain are all at the third-level wizard level. Everyone is eager to be promoted to the fourth level, so everyone is determined to get the [coordinates]!"
"Then why did the war stop?" Enzo was a little confused.
"This war spread throughout the Dark Pole Domain. The casualties of the three major organizations were very serious, and even many wizards died. This situation has seriously violated the [Northern Pact]." Ulysses said, "So, the Northern Parliament sent people to find the leaders of the three major organizations and force them to end the war!"
Enzo's eyes flashed, and his thoughts changed.
The Northern Parliament is the authoritative institution of the entire Northern Continent and belongs to the highest ruling class. The orders of the parliament are not allowed to be violated by anyone, even the leaders of the three major organizations.
"What about the coordinates?" Enzo asked again.
No one would give up easily when it comes to the promotion to the fourth-level wizard. Although the war between the three major organizations was forced to end by the parliament, the ownership of the [coordinates] seems to have not been resolved.
"This is the crux of the problem!"
Gustav said in a serious tone: "After the war, the three major organizations were unwilling to give up the ownership of the [coordinates], so the parliament decided to solve this problem in a way."
"The apprentice-level members of the three major organizations will fight a battle for the coordinates!"
"What does that mean?" Enzo felt uneasy and seemed to have guessed something.
"In short, the parliament provides a secret place, and the three major organizations send their apprentice-level members to fight a bloody battle, and decide the ownership of the coordinates by killing each other." Gustav said in a deep voice.
"Determine the ownership of the coordinates by killing each other among apprentices?" Enzo took a breath.
He finally understood why Gustav said that the war between wizards ended and the war between apprentices had just begun. It turned out to be this reason.
"But is this fair?" Enzo said with a hint of bitterness.
The Northern Council forced an end to the war because of the heavy casualties among the wizard-level members of the three major organizations, but threw the problem to the apprentices, asking them to fight a bloody battle!
Although this avoids the casualties of wizards, in order to compete for coordinates, the three major organizations will inevitably use various means to force the apprentices to fight to the end.
"There is nothing fair or unfair."
Gustave said indifferently, "In fact, this method was mainly proposed by the leaders of the three major organizations. They did not want their wizards to suffer too many casualties, because even if they got the coordinates in the end, they would have to pay for it later." Preparing for the expedition”
"Teacher, can you not participate in this bloody battle?" Enzo asked tentatively.
"Unfortunately, no." Gustav sighed and said, "Unlike the previous war, even if the apprentice-level members went to the battlefield, they would not have any effect, but this time in the coordinate bloody battle, even if The weakest first-level apprentices must participate even if they are used as cannon fodder!"
"Otherwise, you will be considered a traitor to the academy, become a degenerate, and be wanted throughout the country."
Gustav's stern tone made it clear the meaning of the coordinate battle, making Enzo completely give up the idea of escape.
"But don't worry too much."
After a while, Gustav comforted him, "Although this bloody battle is dangerous, it also brings great opportunities for apprentices. It is even an opportunity for many third-level apprentices to be promoted to official wizards!"
