Chapter 775 The Returning Lecturer
Paul sat in the second to last row of the classroom with his good friend Nero.
This is the default ranking of strength among apprentices.
Nero muttered to himself, "I hope I can be the lucky one chosen today," but Paul didn't hear a word he said.
He knew that the name Thor was not a common name, but it was not uncommon.
But when he heard the name for the first time, he somehow remembered Thor, the passenger on the airship who had remained calm despite being interrogated by him.
But he was clearly just an ordinary person at the time, and even the detection facilities on the airship did not find anything abnormal about him.
Could this new lecturer really be the same person as the traveler who impressed Paul so much?
Just as Paul was struggling, the corridor suddenly became quiet.
"The mentor is here!"
The lecture hall suddenly became quiet.
Everyone's eyes lit up.
However, when the door was pushed open and everyone saw the instructor coming in, they all widened their eyes and looked confused.
"What are you looking at? Are you disappointed that it's not the wizard Thor?"
The person who came in turned out to be the original instructor of this class.
He had a gloomy face and glanced at everyone. He seemed to be in a bad mood. If anyone dared to be caught by him at this time, he would give them a good beating.
The apprentices in the classroom immediately put away the disappointment and surprise on their faces and sat down obediently.
But not all apprentices are afraid of their mentors.
The apprentice in the last row frowned in obvious disappointment, "Master Thor can't come today?"
The wizard on the podium twitched his lips, "He has been recruited by the Institute of Knowledge, so you don't have to worry about it anymore—"
“Knock, knock, knock!”
There was a short, forceful knock on the door, suddenly interrupting the wizard's voice on the podium.
The next second, Thor walked in from outside the door.
The wizard on the podium looked towards the door with an uneasy look on his face. "Who are you?"
Thor walked to the podium slowly, "The lecturer of this class."
The other person glanced at Thor's whole body. Although he wanted to say casually, "So you are Thor," but when he thought that the other person was actively recruited by the Institute of Knowledge, while his application was not accepted, he smiled.
"So you are the wizard Thor. Did something fall here?"
Saul knew that the person in front of him was the original lecturer who was being substituted for him, but his purpose of teaching here was no longer just to get close to Nathan, so he couldn't let the original lecturer come back.
Thor tilted his head and whispered something in the other person's ear. The latter opened his mouth but didn't say anything for a long time. At a certain moment, he suddenly reacted and hurriedly picked up the things he had placed on the podium.
"Okay, no problem. Thank you so much. I'll need you to help these apprentices in the future!"
He seemed afraid that Thor would go back on his word, so he walked out of the classroom quickly, holding the book.
The apprentices left in the classroom were confused and surprised.
They thought they would never be able to take Thor's class again.
Only Paul, looking at Saul leaning calmly on the podium, had a blank mind.
At this moment, he suddenly saw Thor look up and look at him, and nodded slightly.
The morning passed quickly, and Thor continued to explain the knowledge about the locator to the third-level apprentices at his own pace.
During this period, some people bravely asked some other questions, and he answered the parts that did not go beyond the syllabus.
For these apprentices, certain deep knowledge cannot be easily understood without the corresponding talent or ability to understand.
After class, Thor was first approached by wizard Laura.
"Wizard Thor, why don't you go to the Institute of Knowledge? I have never seen anyone refuse the Institute of Knowledge's recruitment!"
Wizard Laura was shocked, but she unconsciously softened her tone when facing Thor.
"It's not that I won't go. It's just that when I was teaching these apprentices, I suddenly found that the knowledge and understanding that I had previously neglected were supplemented. Now, the apprentices and I are in a stage of mutual verification. When I complete this stage, I will report to the Institute of Knowledge."
Laura still felt it was a pity. For a group of first-level wizards like them who might be trapped in the lecture hall forever, the Academy of Knowledge was such a desirable place that they had to pretend not to care on the surface to maintain their self-esteem.
After sending away the wizard Laura, Thor waited for Paul.
Paul actually wanted to sneak away, but when he saw Thor when he was leaving and thought of Mina who lived with him, he gritted his teeth and went forward.
"Thor... Mentor."
Saul smiled and asked Paul to go with him.
"Don't worry about what happened on the airship. In fact, I want to thank you for reminding me about 'The Cat Returns'."
Paul is not good at pleasing others, so in this situation he would just keep silent and shake his head.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
So, it was Thor who continued to speak, "You are here for class now, don't you need to work on the airship anymore?"
"Recently, the airship has not received permission to leave the port."
"Really? It's been over a month, and we still can't leave the port? Is there something wrong?"
"I don't know."
Looking at the uneasy Paul, Thor stopped and asked, "Where is your daughter?"
Paul immediately became nervous, but could only answer, "I'm staying with my friend."
"Don't be so nervous." Thor had no idea what terrible scene this guy had in mind, and his face turned pale. "You have helped me. If you have any questions in class in the future, you can ask directly."
But Paul said, "Teacher Saul, I may not go to class anymore."
"Are you afraid of me?" Thor raised his eyebrows.
He felt that he was the most approachable and kindest instructor in the lecture hall.
At least he hasn't beaten anyone to the point of vomiting blood.
"No, no!" Paul waved his hands to deny. "Level 3 apprentices need to pay for classes. I'm currently on hold at the airship, and Mina is following me..."
"Got it." Thor understood.
Paul's daughter, Little Mina, should have a good talent for psychic power. If she can live to the age of ten, after being tested, she may become a wizard more powerful than her father.
It makes sense for Paul to hide it carefully, so as to avoid being caught by some hanged wizard and kept as witchcraft material.
However, compared to Little Mina, who couldn't see the specific situation yet, Thor was more optimistic about Paul's abilities.
"However, your talent should not stop at the third-level apprentice. If you don't have time to come to class, you can wait for me outside after class. I can give you ten minutes."
Paul clenched his hands tightly and looked expressionless, but he was actually in a daze.
Thor smiled and left without caring about the other party's thoughts.
After they walked a long way away, Penny asked in confusion.
[Brother Sol, why do you suddenly want to continue attending class? Aren't we planning to set up an auxiliary magic circle in the Institute of Knowledge? ]
Thor strode forward, leaving the wind and the crowd behind him.
"The auxiliary magic circle will be set up, but there is no rush. It will be fine as long as it is completed before the experiment of connecting to the Fantasy World. Teaching here is my backup plan for the other guy."
Penny thought for a moment.
[You mean... the water god? ]
