Chapter 584: Heading to the City of Hope
After exiting perception, Gervis went directly to the door of the training room. In order to prevent anyone from breaking in, the door of the training room had been locked by Gervis, so he needed to open the door himself.
When Gervis opened the door, he saw Laci standing outside with a smile on his face.
But Gervis thought that only Laci would knock on the door. He had already told the servants not to disturb him, so the servants naturally did not dare to knock on the door.
"Master Lachi!"
"Harry! You're working really hard! I heard from the servants that you've been in here for five or six hours."
"Haha, through this trip to the Magician's Tower, I found that I am still very weak, so I need to work hard to improve myself."
Gervis stepped aside, then sat down on the sofa in the training room with Laci before continuing.
"Master Lachi, why are you here?"
Gervis knew that Lach was very busy these days.
Many of the guards he brought with him this time died, and these guards were all directly under his command as the second young master, so matters such as compensation naturally fell on him.
And before Adela left, her colleague who left a lot of gold coins also asked Laqi to bring greetings to her.
So in order to show that he valued Adela's instructions, Lackey did not leave the matter of the pension to his housekeeper, but did it himself.
"I've finished the compensation issue so I came to see you. Also, there's the matter regarding the auditors at the Union College."
As he spoke, Lachi took out a card from his pocket and handed it to Gervis.
Then he continued, "This is the auditor qualification card for the Union College. Take it. You will need it when you enroll!"
"Don't lose it. This magic card is anonymous. Whoever picks it up will own it."
Gervis didn't hesitate to take it and began to examine it carefully. This auditor qualification card was made of metal and was engraved with an inscription and the words "Alliance Higher College" on it.
While Gervis was looking at the qualification card, Lach continued, "Harry, I will be leaving for the academy in about a week. Do you want to go with me then?"
"Okay, of course we'll go together!"
Hearing Laci's question, Gervis nodded in agreement without hesitation.
Yesterday, Gervis had checked the study in this manor and knew that the Alliance's higher education institution was located in a place called City of Hope.
The City of Hope is not under the jurisdiction of any faction of the Holy Alliance, but is a city that belongs exclusively to the Alliance Higher Academy.
Although this city is only owned by an academy, it is home to millions of people.
There are many reasons why the City of Hope is so prosperous, but the most important ones are just two.
One reason is that the academy itself is well-known, with the league's top young talents and children of large families studying here, so it has attracted a large number of people to settle down and serve these students in the academy and earn gold coins.
Over time, after more than two hundred years of development, with more and more people coming here, the City of Hope has become the prosperous scene it is today.
The second reason is that the location of the City of Hope is the richest land in the alliance, and the City of Hope is surrounded by the top families in the alliance.
For example, families like Sky City and Golden Shield Holy City are not far from the City of Hope.
In order to facilitate communication among members of the Holy Alliance, the headquarters of the Holy Alliance is also located in the City of Hope, making the City of Hope truly the center of the alliance.
The reason why Gervis was preparing to go to the City of Hope was not because he wanted to see it, but because the City of Hope was located close to the west coast of the Holy Continent, which was the same direction that Gervis was heading to.
The journey is long, and if there is a second-generation rich man like Laci leading the team, Gervis will not have to worry about any problems.
As for arriving at the City of Hope, Ge will just have to act according to circumstances!
"Haha! Very good, Harry. Then you should prepare in the next few days. The journey to the academy is not short. It will take at least one and a half months."
Laci was very happy to hear that Gervis was willing to go with him. Gervis's excellence was obvious to all.
Although his strength is still weak now, he will surely grow after Harry goes to the academy for formal studies, so Lach has long wanted to win him over.
"By the way, I have another piece of news for you. On the tenth day after we left Sunset Forest, I heard that the entrance to the wizard tower of Sorcerer Nahum was completely closed."
"Oh? Who turned it off?"
Gervis was very curious. According to common sense, only Wizard Neham himself should know how to close the magic circle of the magician's tower.
"I heard it was the purple bone dragon!"
"After we left the entrance, many adventurers continued to enter the Magician's Tower. It seemed that the purple bone dragon was angered. Not only did it kill some adventurers, but it also destroyed and sealed all the entrances!"
"I see!"
Gervis understood instantly that the skull dragon was obviously very loyal to Nahum and also intelligent, so in order to prevent the Magician's Tower from being further destroyed, it sealed the entrance to the Magician's Tower to prevent anyone from entering.
Next, Gervis continued to talk with Lackey for a while, and then Gervis was called by Lackey to the restaurant for dinner.
…
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, a week later, a team of dozens of people was slowly coming out of the Holy City of Heka. This team was none other than Lachi, Gervis and others.
After knowing that he would set off a week later, Gervis only went out once during this period, which was to buy equipment for his skeleton soldiers. Gervis equipped them all with mithril armor.
As for the rest of the time, Gervis was either in the study or in the practice room.
At this time, Gervis was sitting in a carriage and practicing his meditation method.
His fighting spirit had broken through three days ago, and he officially became a peak silver knight.
As for magic, because Gervis had only been practicing meditation for a short time, although his magical talent was comparable to that of a genius, it would still take several months of intensive practice before he could achieve a breakthrough.
But Gervis was not in a hurry. After all, he possessed powerful mental strength. Even though he was just an apprentice wizard, he could release powerful fireballs and even summon skeleton soldiers.
The only drawback is that the magic power stored in the body is not as much as that of a junior magician!
Gervis plans to practice meditation hard along the way. By the time he reaches the City of Hope, he should be able to be promoted to a junior magician.
On the fifth day after the team set out, Gervis and others finally walked out of the sphere of influence of the Holy City of Heka and came to an area called the Holy City of Kaba.
The status of the Holy City of Kaba in the Holy Alliance is similar to that of Lachi's family, both of which are in the middle level.
Half a day after entering the holy city of Kaba, Gervis and his convoy were stopped.
"Master Lachi, the patrol team from Kaba Holy City said they want to check it out!"
Soon a guard ran to the carriage and reported to Laci in a low voice.
"Hmm? What happened? The convoy has the emblem of our Holy City of Heka and needs to be inspected!"
Lucky was very puzzled.
The population of the Holy Continent is in the billions, and the emblems of large families and the flags of powerful people are essential passes that can ensure unimpeded travel within the alliance.
Otherwise, if ordinary civilians want to travel within the Holy Alliance, they will need to go through a lot of cumbersome certification procedures.
The Holy City of Kaba and the Holy City of Heka are two neighboring forces, and they must recognize the emblem of the Holy City of Heka. In the past, Laqi had never encountered roadblocks when passing by. This was the first time, so he was a little surprised.
"Master Lachi, they said they are looking for a brutal young man who killed many children of the alliance's big and small families in the magician's tower."
"oh?"
When Laci heard this, he immediately became interested and walked out of the carriage!
When Gervis heard the conversation between Laci and the guards, he opened the window of the carriage and looked forward.
I saw a team of over a hundred knights setting up a checkpoint ahead, and among them there were actually two knights with white flags.
Sorry, I was halfway through writing last night when I wanted to lie down and rest for a while, but I ended up falling asleep!
This chapter is a make-up for last night, and there will be another chapter later which is today's update.
