A Sorcerer’s Journey

Chapter 1426: Chapter 1427: Security Admonition

Oblivion Tower Sorcerer Academy.

Located at a mountain range exit of the Abyss in the Two Rings Holy Tower, 22nd Area, it purifies Demonic Qi with the Source of Magic Power, providing Green with the Eternal True Demon Body. The entire Sorcerer’s Tower has stood atop the mountain for thousands of years.

Centered around the Oblivion Tower Sorcerer Academy, it has formed a cluster of small cities. Due to frequent exchanges of certain special resources with the Two Rings Holy Tower, life in the various towns is vibrant and lively, and the population continues to grow, forming a unique community.

Boom...

On this day, wizard apprentices passing by, official sorcerers within the Sorcerer’s Tower, all sensed something and rushed out, staring in astonishment at the top of the Sorcerer’s Tower.

That suffocating temporal pressure surrounded the elemental clouds at the top of the Sorcerer’s Tower, vibrating violently and quickly gathering, a pillar of Magic Power shot straight into the sky, forming what looked like a temporal vortex channel.

The stone slabs of the entire Wizard Academy were trembling, the cultivated experimental specimens were restless. The Academy Guardians, the Thousand-Eyed Soul-Capturing Crabs, scuttled quickly towards the top of the Sorcerer’s Tower.

"What’s happening, what’s going on, the magic power of the Sorcerer’s Tower is rapidly depleting!?"

A wizard apprentice riding on a giraffe muttered in horror, even being on the peripheral edge of such a massive surge of Magic Power made these wizard apprentices turn pale, and the giraffe beneath them was restless.

"Could it be an experiment by one of the headmasters, or is it an earthquake?"

Another wizard apprentice, hiding her figure under a broad Wizard Robe, speculated with her childish voice.

With her limited knowledge, she couldn’t imagine the power of the headmasters of the academy, let alone comprehend the Stigma Sorcerers who counted time in millennia.

Compared to the ignorance of the wizard apprentices, the official sorcerers, who have long supported the Source of Magic Power of the Sorcerer’s Tower, had a clearer understanding. It was a summoning from beyond the world, a siphoning from the magical source of the tower.

Unanimously, these sorcerers paused their tasks, channeling their own magic power through the walls of the Sorcerer’s Tower towards the upper levels.

The top of the Sorcerer’s Tower appeared like a giant black hole, and beyond it, an indescribably terrifying sorcerer was being drawn to this world’s interface through the vast magic power. Compared to this terrifying sorcerer, even the entire Sorcerer’s Tower seemed insignificantly small, and he gazed down upon the earth from ten thousand meters high with giant eyes.

What kind of terrifying sorcerer is this!?

Decades passed, and due to the return of Green, who influenced numerous small and large commercial families in secret, coupled with the corpse of the Abyssal Demon clan displayed atop, the Oblivion Tower Sorcerer Academy had grown from an obscure wizard academy to regain its former peak and continued to grow.

Three headmasters immediately arrived at the teleportation array on the ninety-ninth floor of the academy.

"Since the Lord Tower Master descended his will from the Secret Realms sixty years ago, asking us to prepare for defense at academy war standards, there has been no further message. Why suddenly now?"

"What’s happening? Is it a sudden inspection or audit?"

These two Third-Level Great Sorcerers, who took over after the deaths of Cappuccino, Mili’s rise to Stigma Sorcerer, Saradin, and Nielmaza, were the stronghold of the Oblivion Tower Sorcerer Academy, and post-Green’s return, they were fortunate enough to witness the true visage of the Stigmata Sorcerer of the Oblivion Tower in the Secret Realms.

Generally speaking, as the Sorcerer Academy becomes older, its foundation deeper, and academic environment more mysterious, the interactions between Sorcerers and Tower Masters become fewer. The Sorcerer’s Tower exists in the form of inherited rules, not as the will of the Stigma Sorcerers.

"The Stigmata Sorcerer of the Oblivion Tower!?"

This Great Sorcerer, who came by reputation to become the third headmaster of the academy, murmured with hope and excitement.

Boom...

Crack!

With an indescribable oppressive temporal twist, the teleportation array on the ninety-ninth floor of the Oblivion Tower emitted a "crack" sound, and cracks spread like a spider’s web. In the ensuing ruinous dust, a mysterious figure appeared, five eyes gazing at the three academy headmasters obscured by the smoke of the shattered array.

Silently, the figure floated out; it was Green with Xiao Ba atop his pointed shoulder.

"Greetings, great Stigmata Sorcerer of the Oblivion Tower!"

The three sorcerers were truly shaken by this immense presence that seemed to suppress their magic as they gazed with utmost respect and humility at this descending sorcerer, like a creature from another Dimensional Dimension.

"Hehehe, this time the Oblivion Sorcerer has descended to the Wizard World, both to meet with some Guardians for an important discussion and to inspect your war preparations. The missions given to you decades ago, did you think they were mere words?"

Xiao Ba, with its enchanting beauty, appeared full of mystery in the eyes of these low-grade wizards, undoubtedly the soul partner of this Stigmata Sorcerer of the Oblivion Tower.

Green said timely and deeply, "How are the preparations?"

After the three headmasters exchanged glances, one took out a manual and read, "Currently, the academy’s heritage and foundation..."

"Enough!"

Before he even began, Green interrupted the headmaster’s words, leaving the academy headmaster perplexed.

Green stated, "Don’t report on the material reserves; those are your basic responsibilities, what you should be doing. Let’s do it this way... One hourglass later, assuming war breaks out, I want to see the entire academy’s war mobilization for one month. After one month, have all sorcerers assemble; I want to hold a Sorcerer’s Assembly."

The urgent sound of horns, the Thousand-Eyed Soul-Capturing Crab Guardians, and the wizard apprentices began the academy war mobilization under the Wizard’s Will, the Source of Magic Power of the Sorcerer’s Tower raising the Sorcerer’s Cloak, initiating the simulated academy war mode.

...

A month later, the assessment concluded.

"How was it? How was the academy war simulation and mobilization assessment? Did that Tower Master say anything?"

"Ah, ever since the academy was built, it has been in a state of war readiness in the Wizard World, prohibiting academies from attacking each other. Thus, academy wars have never occurred; we only carried out the most basic conditions for academy war mobilization."

"Hope the Tower Master won’t get angry..."

Sorcerers exchanged these words, clearly dissatisfied with the mobilization exercise.

As the three academy headmasters escorted Green, step by step, from the front of the hall to the high platform, numerous sorcerers held their breath, speaking no more, waiting for the lecture from the Tower Master, who hadn’t descended for millennia. The Oblivion Tower, for the Bright Sorcerer Academy, neglected in combat for so long, was lacking in both individual and group strength.

Green sat on the high platform, overlooking a thousand or more trembling Junior Wizards.

"Who can tell me, who is the hypothetical enemy in your war mobilization?"

After a long while, none of the sorcerers spoke, as if such questions had never crossed their minds.

Green nodded, suddenly took out a list, and began reading some sorcerers’ names. After about twenty names, Green paused and said, "These sorcerers, come to the logistics department later to receive a reward of ten grams of Philosopher’s Stone."

Philosopher’s Stone!?

Numerous sorcerers widened their eyes; does this legendary item truly exist!?

All of a sudden, everyone showed incredibly desirous eyes, lamenting with regret, the Tower Master possesses such mythical refining materials?

"Do you know why I am rewarding them? The reason is simple; only they have conducted a full-scale war mobilization, thoroughly mobilizing the civilians within their territory. You think that because you are a sorcerer, you can ignore the power of the civilians, that an individual can dictate a war?"

Green’s voice was deep, unpredictable, and all sorcerers present did not dare to look directly, even though Green’s power had already been suppressed beyond the perceptible range of these low-grade sorcerers.

"Heh, heh, you still don’t get it. In reality, you are merely soldiers to protect the precious property of human civilians for the great True Spirit Wizards, just farmers cultivating the uninhabited lands outside the Holy Towers. Protecting the civilians within your territories is the victory in war. Remember your duties!"
