Chapter 55: My Name Is Lynn, I''m a Schr


    Theodore seemed to have an extraordinary desire to perform, and when he saw the interest of Lynn and the others, he began toin.


    In recent years, Lydia had be a well-known figure in the entire port of Iyeta, the small halfling was very enthusiastic about researching some strange and unusual things.


    For example,st year, she imitated the spiral propellers on alchemical ships and created a small contraption called the "Fan." It could be powered by alchemical steam devices and provided a cool breeze, which was quite effective on hot summer days.


    But who would put such arge and expensive alchemical machine in their home just to have a breeze?


    For wizards, casting a wind-controlling spell was much more convenient.


    Of course, it could also be operated manually, so there were some townsfolk who pursued novelty and were willing to buy these gadgets. This was also the source of funds for Lydia''s flying devices.


    "With Lydia''s talent, she could join any alchemy workshop as an assistant and receive good treatment, but she insists on bing a wizard. It''s like asking for trouble..." Theodore shook his head. Even he had to admit that this halfling girl had many ingenious ideas, but in thend of wizards, no halfling had ever sessfully be a wizard.


    Listening to Theodore''s ount, Lynn vaguely understood why the "tech tree" in thend of wizards was so chaotic. It was because magic was just too convenient, and many things weren''t impossible to make; wizards just didn''t need them.


    As they walked into the front hall of the academy, there were apprentices dressed modestly bowing to Theodore along the way.


    These apprentices varied in age, with the youngest looking around eleven or twelve years old and the oldest not exceeding thirty. Those over this age who had not be official wizards were considered to have no talent and were therefore expelled from the academy.


    "Here we are. Please wait for a moment. I will inform the other mentors of the academy," Theodore arranged them in arge lounge and had his apprentice bring tea. Then he quickly left.


    Lynn sat down at the back, and on the mahogany table in front of him, there were several scattered magic books, presumably left behind by a wizard who hadn''t had time to take them away. Besides that, there were some sheets of paper thrown carelessly to the side.


    Out of curiosity, Lynn opened one of the folded pages and discovered that it was actually a newspaper called "Magic Weekly."


    He didn''t expect that even in thend of wizards, they had these.


    The front page contained some interesting stories from thend of wizards, while the back had thetest theories about magic, with the author''s name written below.


    "Is the magical reaction of electricity and maism consistent?" "24 Basic Elemental Experiments," "Kozeran Force: The Power that Supports the World," "The Rtionship between the Movement of Objects and Gravity"...


    Lynn flipped through "Magic Weekly" and soon became immersed in it. The unique perspective of analyzing the world through magic made him find it fascinating.


    On the other hand, Jonny sat upright, extremely nervous, unlike Lynn, who seemed at ease.


    Before long, the sound of the door opening again, and Helram, whom they had met earlier, entered with several mentors from the academy.


    After sitting in the main seat, Helram didn''t beat around the bush and looked at Loude, asking directly, "Theodore said you have something very important to report to me personally. Has something serious happened in the port town?"


    "It''s probably even more serious than you can imagine. The entire port town''s harbor has beenpletely destroyed, and even the Ship Gang has been wiped out," Loude said cautiously. Before he could finish speaking, a hoarse voice interrupted.


    "Could it be that the Ship Gang made a mistake while transporting goods and got caught by the Church?" The one who spoke was Kevin, the Professor of Morphology at the Iyeta Academy of Magic. He looked to be around forty, with a tall and slender figure, wearing a gray robe with a shiny emblem on his chest. The emblem bore three mysterious strip-like patterns, the symbol of a third-ring wizard.


    Loude quickly shook his head. He didn''t want to shoulder the me for this. He hurriedly exined.


    But from his perspective, the information he had was very limited. He only knew the beginning of everything, where Archbishop Anluke caught Kora, who was attempting to abduct the Duke''s daughter within the Norn territories, and then the pursuit led to the port town.


    "I knew that Kora would get into trouble. We shouldn''t have let him leave thend of the wizards in the first ce,"ined Philip, the Elemental Studies professor, unhappily.


    He, of course, knew Kora. Before leaving thend of wizards a few years ago, Kora had been holding the position of a professor of Psionics at the Iyeta Academy of Magic, and he had made significant contributions in elemental, alchemical, and shape-shifting magic.


    If he had continued to dedicate himself to magic research, he might have reached the rank of a grand wizard in the future.


    However, just a few years ago, this guy went crazy and left everything behind to navigate the Misty Sea and head to the Secas Empire.


    It was apletely insane decision.


    Compared to thefortable life and the freedom to study magic in thend of the wizards, the Empire was apletely different extreme. People there lived in squalid wooden houses, endured the oppressive rule of the Church, and had no knowledge of even the basics of elemental magic.


    Philip was about to say more when his colleague pulled him back.


    It should be noted that Kora''s journey to the Secas Empire was approved by Master Helram! Despite the frequent interruptions from the wizard elders, Loude dared not voice any objections. In the moments when no one was speaking, he recounted the whole story without hiding any details.


    When the professors heard about Lynn using an immensely powerful spell to kill a high bishop, annihte three thousand heavily armored elite guards, and even level half a city, they couldn''t help but wear expressions of disbelief, even Helram was moved.


    Theodore even began to suspect whether Loude had messed things up on his own and then, in coboration with this wizard named Lynn, concocted a random reason to cover up his mistakes.


    With various thoughts in mind, all the wizards present involuntarily turned their gaze toward the two individuals who hadn''t spoken yet.


    Jonny and the others were familiar with Kora. Four years ago, when Kora returned to thend of the wizards, Jonny also followed him. But as for Lynn and the others, they had no impression of them.


    "Just a moment ago, we didn''t get a chance to introduce ourselves. I''m Lynn, a schr from the Society of Mystical Arts within the Secas Empire''s territories, and I''m also Kora''s friend." Under the scrutiny of everyone, Lynn put down the "Magic Weekly" in his hand and spoke naturally.


    This was the identity they had discussed with Jonny on the airship.
