The Lord of Ashes

"Hello, Master Thane, I am Chris, the special prosecutor of the Ebalut Empire."

"I'm here to investigate a cross-border apprentice smuggling case." A fourth-level magician wearing red leather armor walked up to Thain and said politely.

As a magician, but wearing leather armor, it shows that the other party is a rare "double magician and martial artist".

This Chris is indeed worthy of the title of "strong man". Although Thain is not wearing the phaseless mask at this time, he can only judge through his breath and combat intuition that the opponent's strength is not inferior to his own.

Chris did not come alone. Behind him, there were about two hundred entourage, including knights and magicians.

It seemed like he was well prepared, and he seemed to be investigating certain situations.

"Hello, Master Chris, I'm Thane, how can I help you?" Thain looked at Chris in front of him with a smile.

Although Chris also practiced fighting spirit, Thane still regarded him as a magician of the same level.

Chris smiled slightly and said, "In the southern region of the Ebalut Empire, apprentice transport ships have been robbed frequently in the past thousand years, so I would like to ask Master Thain to cooperate with us in conducting some investigations."

"We also have some intelligence information, and a lot of evidence points to the Ashes area." Chris said.

I often walk by the river without getting my shoes wet.

More than 80% of Thain's Ashes Tower apprentices are from the Abarut Empire.

If you do this kind of thing a lot, there will definitely be some flaws and traces revealed, and Thain has already been prepared for it.

Thain seemed not to be affected at all. He first nodded to Chris in agreement, and then said to several Beren Empire magicians around him, "It seems that the black magicians in our Land of Ashes are too active." Rampant, it attracted the attention of several friends of the Abarut Empire."

"I'll talk to Master Chris first, and we'll see you later." Thain said.

The master of the Lava Volcano Holy Tower and others nodded.

The tower owners who built the holy tower on the southwestern border of the Belen Empire knew exactly how chaotic the Darvel region, the predecessor of the Land of Ashes, was.

Even in the Holy Tower area where they are located, the activities of black magicians are more rampant than in other areas of the main continent of the Wizarding World.

Thain dared to build a holy tower in the Land of Ashes. Many strong men above level four in the surrounding areas were watching this matter with curiosity and surprise.

There are many powerful people who want to get to know Thain.

After saying hello to several tower owners, Thain and Chris flew to a relatively remote corner above the secret trial realm.

The person who came was the prosecutor of the Ebalut Empire, not the supervisor of the Wizards Alliance. Thain knew that this matter was not a big problem.

If it was the Wizards Alliance sending someone, Thane would really have to be careful, but if it was the Ebalut Empire...

"Master Thane, what do you think of the increasingly rampant apprentice smuggling in our wizarding world?" Chris asked first.

"What these black magicians have done is too much. I think the Wizards Alliance should increase its efforts and crack down on them!" Thain replied.

Chris showed a look of sudden agreement, and then continued, "I heard that Master Thain, your Holy Tower of Ashes, has done a good job recruiting apprentices in recent years."

"Tsk tsk, this is your Ashes Holy Tower apprentice. There are already thousands of apprentices. It is considered to be developing very well in the new Holy Tower." Chris said suddenly while looking at the secret trial realm below.

Right below where Thain and Chris were standing was the trial area where the apprentices of the Ashes Holy Tower Academy mainly conducted their activities.

It is worth mentioning that the number of apprentices in the Holy Tower of Ashes has indeed exceeded the expectations of the owners of several other holy towers.

This is also the first time to participate in the academy war. Even if the Purple Calyx Holy Tower has family support and the policy support of the Beren Empire, there are only more than a thousand qualified apprentices participating in the trial this time.

There is no way, the Beren Empire does not have universal magic like the Abarut Empire.

Almost all the apprentices in these five holy towers are children from noble families.

Learning magic is an extremely expensive job. Just looking at the cost of training apprentices, Thain's Holy Tower of Ashes is almost three to four times that of other holy towers.

"Oh, these children are all miserable."

"Most of them were saved from the black magicians."

"Before I was promoted to level four, I always had a wish - to eliminate all the black magicians in our wizarding world."

"This has some relevance to my personal experience." Thain said compassionately.

Thain's words made Chris's face stiffen a bit.

However, the magician adjusted his mood and continued, "I heard that a magician from our Ebalut Empire named Boss has joined the Holy Tower of Ashes."

"Master Thain, you should know this person. We want to investigate him." Chris looked into Thain's eyes and said.

"I'm sorry, I haven't heard of this magician. Is he a first-level magician or a second-level magician?" There was nothing strange in Thain's eyes, but he asked Chris curiously.

"I have been working on several experimental projects in the past few decades. I really don't know much about the situation at Holy Tower College." Thain frowned and sighed with some regret, "Well, I'll put my The dean came and asked her about the situation."

Not long after, Meili, who had been observing the war situation at the Holy Tower Academy in the area, was called to Thain's side.

Meili didn't know what was happening. Her attention at the moment was still on the little guys at Holy Tower Academy.

When Thain called her to her side, Meili glanced curiously at Chris beside Thain, including the leader of the Lava Volcano Holy Tower and others, who were actually not far away at this time.

"Meili, is there a person like Bose in our college?"

"He is..." Thane turned his head and glanced at Chris.

Chris added helplessly, "It should be a second-level magician."

"Well, there is a second-level magician named Baos. Is there such a person among the registered magicians in our Holy Tower?" Thain asked.

Thain's question made Meili blink her beautiful eyes.

She first glanced at Chris next to Thain, then shook her head without hesitation and said, "Master Thain, we at Holy Tower Academy do not have a second-level magician named Baos."

"I know that not long ago, a first-level academy magician named Boris joined our Holy Tower. I interviewed him personally."

"I have all the information on the 527 registered magicians in our Holy Tower. If you want to check it, you can check it now." Meili said.

At the same time, she took out a crystal ball from her magic robe.

More than a hundred years ago, when the White Sand World War just ended, there were only over 300 registered magicians in the Holy Tower of Ashes.

Now, more than a hundred years later, nearly two hundred people have been added, which shows that the overall development momentum of the Ashes Holy Tower is good.

Meili, the dean of Holy Tower College, has done a very competent job!
