At noon the next day, Carl left Vana City with the farewell of his parents and Hope.
When these three people stand together now, they are as close as a family.
If Hope's skin color and appearance weren't so different from Carl's parents, others would probably have thought the three of them were a family of three.
Although he was happy that Hope was recognized by his family, as the couple's biological son, Carl always had a premonition that his status was no longer secure.
"Forget it, let me think about how to pass the exam first. I wonder if Mr. Moore can give me some private lessons on the theoretical knowledge. I am quite confident about the practical part now."
Being able to make a precious magic item in a dungeon at level 3 using what you have in hand is considered a genius among artificers.
If such skills cannot pass the practical test, then few people in the entire Akanix can pass it.
The only thing Carl is worried about now is the theory test.
Although he now has a biological plug-in, Akanix's theoretical exam is not just rote memorization.
Even if he is confident that he can memorize the entire book, as we all know, what is tested in the exam is completely different from what is learned normally.
If there was no one to help explain, it would be difficult for him to digest the theoretical knowledge even if he had enough time in the dream world.
Looking at the water of Lake Galifar, Carl leaned against the window, his thoughts gradually drifting away.
Before he knew it, Carl fell asleep.
When he woke up again, the cruise ship had passed the transit port in Andair and was about to arrive in Arkanix.
The service on this cruise ship is not as good as that on the lightning train. There is no one to remind you that you are about to arrive at the station.
Looking at the time, Carl packed up his things and left his seat.
Some people had gathered on the deck at this time. Most of them were wearing simple clothes and chatting with the people around them with mask-like smiles on their faces.
When people asked him what he was doing in Akanix, he answered, "I'm going there to open a restaurant."
Otherwise, they are clothing stores, toy stores, family planning products stores, etc.
There may be a few people who really went there with such thoughts, but the vast majority of them are actually lying.
But their true identities are agents from various countries.
On Carl's first day of school, the teacher told them: "Ninety percent of the shops outside the school are run by agents from various countries. Not only that, some of the teachers in the school actually also serve as agents."
Akanix is the continent's top magic talent training center, so such a place has naturally become a place where agents from various countries are active.
Cultivating domestic talents is important, but wouldn't it be great if we could seduce talents from other countries to work for our country? Perhaps it is with this idea in mind that the Akanix campus is filled with various not-so-dangerous temptations.
The trick of letting agents fall in love with students so that they change their jobs is the most basic one. There are many more advanced tricks.
Seeing Carl, a boy with an obviously immature look, preparing to get off the boat at Akanix, several people in the crowd immediately became interested.
But they did not act rashly. Instead, they took the opportunity to distribute business cards and chat with Carl to get closer to him little by little.
"Hey! It's you!"
At this moment, a voice that perfectly fits the setting of "queen" rang out.
Everyone looked up and found that the person who spoke was a young woman in her twenties with white hair, white irises and white skin.
She was wearing a white off-the-shoulder top and a black pencil skirt that Karl’s netizens from his previous life jokingly called a stepmother skirt.
Her white and tender calves were revealed from the slits on the side of her skirt, and she was wearing a pair of black high heels on her feet.
When she saw Karl, she immediately looked like she was about to cry.
After a brief pause in his thinking, Carl quickly remembered the other person.
"Oh! It's you, what a coincidence."
When he saw the other party, Carl immediately opened his backpack and took out the canvas bag that the other party had given him on the lightning train.
He originally wanted to find his instructor after the exam to see what this thing was, but he didn't expect to meet the owner of the thing here.
He felt that there were very few such coincidences in the world, and the other party's appearance made him feel a little uneasy.
"Yes, thank you for helping me bring the things out. Are you going to Akanix, little brother? If you don't mind, I'll treat you to dinner later!"
Cass took Carl's hand in a very familiar manner and pulled Carl away from the crowd.
"Those people are agents from other countries. Stay away from them."
At the same time, a voice sounded in Carl's ears.
This was obviously a communication spell, but the other party was able to perform it without leaving any trace, which showed that she was quite familiar with this spell.
Carl looked at the other person in surprise, and then realized that the other person was probably also an agent, and what she entrusted to him to keep might be something related to the Kingdom of Breland or Saan.
"Eludin has never sent out agents or spies, right? So she must be from Aundair?"
The Aundair royal family has an agent organization called the Royal Eye, whose members are proficient in spells of enchantment, illusion, and prophecy.
Given the alliance between Eruden and Aundair, Carl was a little less wary of this woman who was suspected to be an Aundair agent.
Reaching out to take the canvas bag from Carl's hand, Cass weighed it twice, then nodded with satisfaction.
Pretending to chat with Carl, Cass intentionally or unintentionally separated Carl from the agents next to him.
Soon, the cruise ship arrived at the port of Akanix.
Looking at the nine wizard towers in the sky and the artificial island in front of them, many tourists on the boat expressed their feelings.
In the beginning, Akanix Academy was just the nine wizard towers in the sky.
Later, in order to facilitate the students, the mages of the academy built an artificial island in the lake below the Mage Tower.
The Magic Council, which was originally located in the real town of Akanix, was moved to the artificial island, and the entire artificial island gradually prospered.
Stepping onto the artificial island of Akanix again, Carl felt mixed emotions and nostalgia.
Carrying his backpack, he went straight to the Giant Eagle rental office and headed for the Tower of Wonders.
After spending a silver coin, he rode a giant eagle and flew to the wizard tower in the sky.
In less than two minutes, the giant eagle carried Carl to the landing platform of the Tower of Wonders.
After releasing the giant eagle, Carl straightened his clothes and walked quickly into the tower.
The interior of the Mage Tower is a demiplane. Although it is not as big as the dungeon that Carl fell into, it is large enough to accommodate nearly 10,000 people.
However, the Tower of Wonders has always been sparsely populated. From the entrance to the door of the teaching office, Carl only met six people.
"Boom boom boom"
He knocked on the door of the teaching office with his fingers, and waited until someone from inside said "Come in" before he pushed the door open and walked in.
Sitting on the main seat in the room was a chubby old man who looked like Master Ban in the Qin Shi Ming Yue animation. He was Carl's instructor, Moore Ban, and also his master on the road to becoming a magician.
"Master! I just escaped from the dungeon, why do I have to take the exam with my classmates? I'm..."
Before Karl could finish speaking, the old man in the main seat coughed heavily.
"Hey! Mr. Karl, it's office time now, you have to refer to your position!"
As he said this, Mooreben, who had a kind face, winked at Carl.
On the sofa next to them, the Director of Teaching of the Tower of Spells was looking over here.
"Okay, Professor Moore."
