Chapter 971: Apprentice Test
Richard was caught in a coht decision
His decision was correct to a certain degree, as his group didn’t face any ers froroup of strangers Besides, the strangers seeht that these powerful people would disregard lowly apprentices like them, but he was surprised that apart from the beautifulladies didn’t seem to harbor any ill intention toward them
But… They were just too powerful
At thatto a certain monster lord In order to protect its territory, the monster lord showed up to eradicate the visitors It was an enor body of five meters But what astonished Richard was that no one launched any attacks Instead, the young man stared coldly into the monster’s eyes and after a few seconds, the s like a puppy
Richard felt his head go nuers their intentions for entering the Deepest Labyrinth, he didn’t receive any answers Now, he could only hope that no conflicts would arise between their groups If not, they would be crushed without a doubt, not tothe apprentice test
But… Richard looked over his shoulder at this thought In only half a day, his group had gotten along ith the strangers Perhaps the main reason was because there weren’t any troubleso with If not, he was highly confident that the petite young lady would annihilate the troubleh before shi+fting his gaze to the tall h the lush forest That was their destination: the entrance of the Deepest Labyrinth According to plan, they should have arrived the day before if they weren’t delayed by battle Fortunately, they were still within the given time so… there shouldn’t be any issues
Richard knitted his brows For so the apprentices, he constantly heard the reason for the change in the apprentice test from the mentors In the past, the apprentice test had the apprentices for their evaluation But this ti the mentors Rumor had it that the evaluation criteria wasn’t uniform in the past, which led to unfair results The modification to the apprentice test could standardize the apprentices’ qualifications andline But… Richard felt that soainst their ‘Safety First’ belief Moreover, the test content was also baffling In the past, it was deeerous to just head into the Enchanted Forest But this tie Even though his group was composed of elite apprentices, they still couldn’t possibly survive in the Deepest Labyrinth Besides, two-thirds of the Mage Tower’s elite apprentices sent for this test Was it really necessary to take it this far?
But there was no er Since they were here, they could only continue with their journey
At the same tiedthe sun and time, he knitted his brows
“What time is it now?”
“11:25 a ed nal was fired yesterday afternoon, right?”
“Yes, Sir It happened around 5:43 pm yesterday in the southeastern zone of the Enchanted Forest”
“It seems like they’ve faced so now…”
The hed and shook his head
“How are the others doing?”
“Frey and Adella think that we should check on them But Stewart and Hilla don’t see for orders” The young apprentice hesitated “Frankly speaking, Sir, everyone is feeling rather worried that we have to pass through the Enchanted Forest and enter the Deepest Labyrinth”
“I know”
The ed man waved his hand
“I’her-ups approved this ridiculous proposal But now, since you guys are here already, we don’t have any more reasons to cancel the test Fortunately, your ood idea Sigh… It just doesn’t feel right for tragedies to happen before they even have the chance to enter the Deepest Labyrinth”
“Sir…”
“Alright, go and get prepared If they haven’t shown up by 12, I will conclude that Richard’s tearoups before entering the Deepest Labyrinth This isn’t an ordinary adventure so ive their best!”
“Sir Gabe went to check on the teleportation door at the entrance of the Deepest Labyrinth He said it’s to ensure that the test will proceed without any issues”
“Ho off and letapprentice spoke, before bowing politely and leaving the place
At the next rimaced
In fact, the new apprentice test caused quite a stir aher-ups, especially when two-thirds of the elite apprentices were involved It could also be said that apart froes eren’t experts in battles, aleneration was sent here This was an extre to the Enchanted Forest could allow theain rich battle experience, es weren’t soldiers, after all The elite apprentices were the core strength of the new generation, which the organization had spent room
It was due to this reason that many mentors objected to this absurd test But h they understood the apprentices best, they weren’t in a position tomercenaries to ensure the safety of the apprentices but were rejected by the higher-ups with a dignified reason…
The new test format was for the sake of fairness
Yes, it would ensure that the results were fair, but it was too dangerous!
As a result, the higher-ups gave in to the request to allow the three mentors to accompany the apprentices into the Deepest Labyrinth However, they weren’t allowed to assist the apprentices in getting through the Enchanted Forest Everything should have been fine, but now…
hed Richard was one of his favorite students He was seous He would definitely be one of the core strengths in the future of the organization But now… What else could thefor his arrival?
“Sir! Sir!”
