The Bizarre Wizarding World-Chapter 764 - 461: Disappointment
Chapter 764: Chapter 461: Disappointment
Perhaps the torrential rains of the previous days had depleted the summer’s reserve of rainfall.
From the Tilaimei Plain to Neustadt, Colin saw clear skies all the way, with the crisp sky hanging like sapphires, and the weather was sunny and breezy.
The gloom that the Divine had previously cast over the Siya Continent seemed to have temporarily dissipated...
Upon arriving in Neustadt City, Colin breezed through the city entry check with familiarity and entered the city; his status as a Supreme Council Member allowed him to continue flying through the air.
Looking down at the ground, a tranquil and peaceful scene unfolded before him.
During the years of war, the Wizards of the entire Siya Continent showed a trend of converging towards Miracle City.
However, at this moment, compared to the last two years, there were somewhat fewer people on the streets of Neustadt City, but although there were fewer pedestrians, most were full of energy, and the atmosphere on the streets could definitely be called lively.
As he flew past the Wattle district closest to the city gate, Colin suddenly noticed many Wizards gathering in front of a peculiar type of building on the street, forming a noticeable group.
Flying on for a bit, Colin saw the same type of buildings come into view again.
A large number of Wizards gathered in front of this building as well.
It hadn’t been too long since Colin last came to Neustadt, but he clearly remembered that these black buildings did not exist in Neustadt City during his last visit.
Most of these black buildings were rather small, seemingly repurposed from the original shops on either side of the streets, the entire structures painted black, with no signboards, but a massive, distinctive black stele stood outside, casting a faint blue light screen, quite noticeable.
Slowing down a bit, Colin directed some of his attention to those buildings.
Due to the crowd blocking the view, he couldn’t see the specific content of the light screen, but he could hear the voices of the Wizards.
"War report of May 3, the Wizard forces achieved another victory, eliminating three Divine Bishops and several followers, successfully capturing the Dobilon Islands," a Wizard was reading from the black stele.
"I think the Divine’s dominance is over, and the Wizards are on the brink of final victory!"
"That’s jumping to conclusions too soon!"
"Regardless, the Wizards are currently unstoppable, and reclaiming the entire Sea Domain is only a matter of time. Now is the best moment to join the frontline and earn battle merits!"
"Yes, no matter what one’s background is, whether Wild Wizards or School Wizards, as long as you have battle merits, you can exchange them for knowledge you want from the Supreme Council and the various Schools!"
"Alas, don’t remind me. A friend of mine sent word yesterday, he has already exchanged for the privilege to join the Tin Saint School! From now on, he will be a distinguished School Wizard! Just thinking about it feels like ants are biting my heart, I am so envious!"
’Ah, so this is where they post front-line reports; seems like a recruitment spot as well,’ Colin stopped and examined the black stele carefully. Indeed, on the light screen, there was also a scrolling guide to the recruitment process.
"The battlefield is merciless; earning battle merits isn’t so easy!" The discussion at the recruitment spot continued, suggesting that not everyone was optimistic.
"That’s true, battle merits are wonderful, but one must live to enjoy them!" Another Wizard agreed.
"Pah! I think you’re just cowardly. For us Wild Wizards, if we don’t fight for it, we’re destined to live mediocre lives! Besides, what’s the point of hiding and living a little longer? If everyone refuses to fight, and the war ends in defeat, then no one will escape death!"
A Wizard with a mutton-chop beard snorted disdainfully then turned his head to look around and loudly proclaimed, "I refuse to live like that. I plan to enlist right now to seek a bright future! Who will join me?"
"Sure!"
"I’m in too!"
As soon as the words were spoken, a string of Wizards joined in agreement.
Colin turned his gaze away,
’The Supreme Council and the various Schools have already opened access to obtaining knowledge... In the past, contribution points or battle merits earned on the battlefield could also be exchanged for benefits such as knowledge within the Supreme Council, but there were requirements for one’s background.’
’If one was not a School Wizard but just a common Wild Wizard, then the knowledge accessible for exchange with contribution points would be limited, with many powerful spells of witchcraft off-limits, not to mention the qualifications to join a School.’
’But now that one can join a School through battle merits, other restrictions must have been greatly reduced.’
’Knowledge transfer channels have been opened...’ Colin reflected with some emotion. freewebnσvel.cѳm
Indeed, as the mutton-chop bearded Wizard mentioned, for those Wild Wizards, now was the best time to gamble for a bright future!
Thinking this, Colin no longer delayed and proceeded to the Supreme Council Hall at the city center.
His purpose for this visit was simple, to exchange for the Fourth Rank Meditation Method!
Entering the first floor of the Hall, he found the atmosphere equally dominated by fervent recruitment.
Right on the wall facing the entrance of the first-floor hall was a large promotional light screen, detailing the various recruitment policies with faintly glowing white lettering.
However, unlike those found on regular streets, the promotional light screen here mainly targeted Council Members.
Colin glanced at it briefly and was somewhat amazed.
As long as a Supreme Council Member volunteered to participate in the frontline war, they would receive substantial resource subsidies, which even included exchange slots for Divine Blood!
