"Crow Feather? Trial?" Enzo frowned.
Because he had been practicing in the Tomb of the Crow for a year, Enzo didn't know anything about the outside world, and the words he spoke from Carl made him feel extremely unfamiliar.
Next to it, Carl had already left with his luggage.
Enzo shook his head and said to himself, "Forget it, I have time to inquire about the news later. Now I'd better take a break first and then go to visit Mentor Gustav."
Opening the dormitory door, Enzo walked in.
Compared to before, there was no change in the dormitory, but there was a little more dust. Enzo casually released a clean witchcraft, and the room suddenly looked brand new.
Then, he came to the window and opened it and thought.
A moment later, a black shadow flew over from the sky not far away, passed through the window and landed on the ground, stumbled into a golden retriever dog without a tail.
"Woo! You're finally back, Enzo." The golden retriever looked very excited and kept urging towards him with his head.
"It seems that your appetite should be good during the year when I am not here." Enzo chuckled, looked at the bloated body of the golden retriever dog, and touched its head.
Enzo was unable to take Sviin with him for a year in the Tomb of the Crow.
So before heading to the tomb of the Crow, he placed Sviin in the academy to move freely and asked Bourne to help take care of him. The Tinos Crow, who had not seen him for a year, seemed to have looked much fatter.
"Woo! Bourne gave me a lot of delicious food." The golden retriever dog stuck out his tongue and said excitedly, ": During the period when you are not here, I have passed the juvenile stage and now have several transformation forms!"
"I can become an elephant, do you want to see it?"
As he said that, the Golden Retriever's Big Dog took a few steps back and stood up with legs, as if she was about to turn into an elephant in the room the next moment. Enzo was so scared that he quickly stopped it.
"You have a lot of time to show me your changing shape, but now you should restore your original body."
A bang!
The golden retriever turned into a black-feathered crow, flapping its wings and landing on Enzo's shoulders.
"Next, let's visit the tutor first."
Enzo thought for a while, then left the dormitory, and according to the direction in his memory, he soon arrived at the north area of ​​the academy, outside the tower belonging to Gustav.
"The Tutor of the Gu Temple has been promoted to the second-level wizard!"
"According to the rules of the academy, he is already qualified to establish a wizard family, but with the character of a tutor, he should not have such an idea in a short time after senior Gumondo and senior Byron die one after another."
Gustav’s tower has changed a lot compared to before.
Enzo originally planned to enter it directly, but after getting closer, he found that the gate at the entrance of the tower was locked and a copper ring of a strange beast was hung on it.
Dongdongdongdongdongdong!
He pulled the copper ring and knocked. The strange beast on the door raised a white light. The obsidian's eyes opened, as if they were coming alive, and a ray of light was cast, scanning Enzo's whole body.
"New visitors, please be patient!" The copper ring of the alien beast made a dull sound.
"Are the demonized item?" Enzo raised his eyebrows. The bronze ring of the strange beast on the gate at the entrance of the tower seemed to be a demonized item, which functioned similar to the Twilight Eye of Thunder City.
After a while, the door was opened.
Through the gap between the doors, a small head poked out.
"Who are you looking for?" The owner of the voice was a girl who looked only eleven or two years old, with long silver-white hair, sweet and cute appearance, and wearing a white apprentice robe.
"Where is the tutor Gustav?" Enzo asked with a frown.
"My tutor is out on duty. Who are you?" asked the silver-haired girl timidly.
"Your tutor? Gustav has a new female disciple?" Enzo raised his eyebrows and said in confusion, "My name is Enzo, I am the second disciple of Gustav!"
"Senior Enzo?"
The silver-haired girl's eyes lit up, she opened the door and introduced herself, "Hello, senior, my name is Sonya, and she is the sixth disciple of Gustav!"
"The sixth disciple? So, the tutor accepted four disciples in one year?" Enzo was a little surprised.
"That's right, senior, come in first." Sonia nodded, signaled Enzo to enter the tower, and then took him to a quiet room, serving tea and pouring water quickly.
"It seems that mentor Gustav is very busy this year!" Sitting on the sofa, Enzo picked up the tea and took a sip.
"In fact, not only Gustav, but other mentors in the academy have been in a very busy state after the war between the three major organizations ended." Sonia stood respectfully on the side.
"Tell me what happened in the past year?"
Enzo put down the teacup in his hand and asked softly, "I heard an apprentice say, "What's going on with the 'Crow Feather' and 'Trial'? Why did the tutor accept four disciples in a row within a year?"
“This is the policy of the college!”
Sonia explained, "Due to the previous war, the academy lost many apprentices and wizards. In order to restore the academy's status as soon as possible, the dean issued a policy."
"The dean has distributed a lot of 'crow feathers' in the Dark Realm. Whether it is a wandering apprentice or a member of the wizard family, as long as he can get a crow feather, he can go to [Crow Phantom] and get a chance to 'trial'!"
"And if someone can pass the trial of the academy, he can become a real member of [Crow Phantom]!"
"So that's the case." Enzo nodded slightly, and immediately understood what the Crow Feather and Trial were.
The war caused severe damage to the academy's vitality. In order to recover as soon as possible, the dean decided to absorb a batch of fresh blood. Using the crow feathers to set up obstacles and screen them for trials, the quality of members who joined the academy can be ensured.
"So... the tutor accepted your disciples and the dean's order?" Enzo asked again.
"Yes, every tutor in the academy has a task indicator and must accept a certain number of disciples." Sonia nodded and said softly, "In fact, under normal circumstances, every first-level wizard-level tutor needs to receive at least five apprentices as disciples, while the second-level wizard has ten."
"There are six indicators left by the mentor Gustav, but he doesn't seem to like the tower that has too many people, so he would rather go out to perform tasks to offset the indicators, and he doesn't agree with the college to give him an apprentice."
"It sounds like the character of the mentor." Enzo smiled bitterly.
Based on such a long time of getting along, Enzo also has a certain understanding of Gustav's temperament. Although he attaches great importance to feelings, his personality is a bit indifferent and he is unwilling to have bondage with too many people.
