Journey to the Wizarding World

Chapter 289 Policy
"Crow feather? Trial?" Enzo frowned.

Due to his hard work in the Tomb of the Phantom Crow for a year, Enzo knew nothing about the news from the outside world, and the words from Carl's mouth made him feel very strange.

Beside, Karl has already dragged his luggage and left.

Enzo shook his head, and said to himself, "Forget it, I have time to inquire about the news later, let's take a rest first, and then go visit Gustav."

Opening the door of the dormitory, Enzo walked in.

Compared with before, the dormitory has not changed much, except that there is a little more dust. Enzo released a cleansing witchcraft at random, and the room suddenly looked brand new.

Afterwards, he came to the window, and after opening the window, he had a thought.

A moment later, in the sky not far away, a black shadow quickly flew over, passed through the window and landed on the ground, stumbling into a big golden retriever dog without a tail.

"Woo! You are finally back, Enzo." The golden retriever dog seemed very excited, and kept arching his head towards him.

"It seems that your appetite should be good during the year I've been away." Enzo chuckled, looked at the golden retriever's bloated body, and stroked its head.

After a year of penance in the Tomb of the Phantom Crow, Enzo couldn't take Swain with him.

So before going to the tomb of the phantom crow, he left Swain to move freely in the academy, and asked Bourne to help him take care of it. The crow of Tinos, who had not seen him for a year, seemed to have gained a lot of weight.

"Woo! Bourne gave me a lot of delicious food." The golden retriever dog stuck out his tongue and said excitedly, "During your absence, I have already passed the infancy period, and now I have several transformed forms!"

"I can turn into an elephant, would you like to see?"

Saying that, the golden retriever took a few steps back and stood up on two legs, as if it was about to turn into an elephant in the room in the next moment, Enzo was so frightened that he quickly stopped it.

"You will have a lot of time in the future to show me your changing form, but it's better to restore your original body now."

bang!
The golden retriever turned into a black-feathered crow, flapped its wings and landed on Enzo's shoulder.

"Next, let's visit the mentor first."

Enzo thought for a while, and then left the dormitory. According to the direction he remembered, he soon came to the north area of ​​the college, outside the tower belonging to Gustav.

"Instructor Tafu of the ancient temple has been promoted to the second-level wizard!"

"According to the rules of the academy, he is already qualified to establish a wizard family, but with the character of a mentor, after the successive deaths of Senior Gumondo and Senior Byron, he should not have such an idea in a short time."

Gustav's tower has changed a lot compared to before.

Enzo originally planned to enter it directly, but after getting closer, he found that the gate at the entrance of the tower was locked, and there was a copper ring of a strange beast hanging on it.

Boom boom boom!
He flipped the copper ring and knocked, and the strange beast on the gate floated a white light, and the obsidian's eyes opened, as if they were alive, and projected a ray of light, scanning Enzo's whole body.

"New visitor, please wait patiently!" The beast copper ring made a dull sound.

"A magical item?" Enzo frowned. The beast copper ring on the gate at the entrance of the tower seemed to be a magical item, and its function was similar to the Eye of Twilight in Thunder City.

A moment later, the door was opened.

Through the gap between the doors, a small head poked out.

"Excuse me, who are you looking for?" The owner of the voice is a young girl who looks only eleven or two years old. She has long silver-white hair, looks sweet and cute, and wears a white apprentice robe.

"Where is Teacher Gustav?" Enzo asked with a frown.

"My mentor is out on a mission, who are you?" the silver-haired girl asked timidly.

"Your mentor? Gustav has a new female disciple?" Enzo frowned, and said in doubt, "My name is Enzo, and I'm the second disciple of Gustav's mentor!"

"Senior Enzo?"

The silver-haired girl's eyes lit up, she opened the door, and introduced herself, "Hello senior, my name is Sonia, and I am the sixth disciple of Mentor Gustav!"

"The sixth disciple? So, the teacher accepted four disciples in one year?" Enzo was a little surprised.

"That's right, come in first, senior." Sonia nodded, motioned for Enzo to enter the tower, and then led him to a quiet room, quickly serving tea and water.

"It seems that Teacher Gustav has been very busy this year!" Sitting on the sofa, Enzo picked up the tea and took a sip.

"Actually, not only Gustav, but other mentors in the academy have been very busy after the war of the three major organizations." Sonia stood respectfully aside.

"Tell me, what happened in the last year?"

Enzo put down the teacup in his hand, and asked softly, "I heard an apprentice say something about 'Crow Feather' and 'Trial'. How could the mentor accept four disciples in a row within one year?"

"This is the policy of the academy!"

Sonia explained, "Due to the previous war, the academy lost many apprentices and wizards. In order to restore the academy's status as soon as possible, the dean issued a policy."

"Master Dean distributed a lot of 'crow feathers' in the Dark Pole Realm. Whether it is a wandering apprentice or a member of a wizard family, as long as he can get a crow feather, he can go to [Phantom of Crows] and get a 'Trial' Chance!"

"And if someone can pass the trial of the academy, he can become a true member of [Phantom of Crows]!"

"So that's the case." Enzo nodded slightly, and immediately understood what Crow Feather and the trial were all about.

The war caused the academy's vitality to be severely damaged. In order to restore its status as soon as possible, the dean decided to absorb a batch of fresh blood. Using the crow's feathers to set up obstacles, coupled with trials for screening, can ensure the quality of members who join the academy.

"So, it was also the dean's order for the mentor to accept you as disciples?" Enzo asked again.

"Yes, every mentor in the academy has a mission target, and must accept a certain number of disciples." Sonia nodded and said softly, "In fact, under normal circumstances, every first-order wizard-level mentor , need to recruit at least five apprentices as disciples, and the second-level wizards need ten people."

"Instructor Gustav still has six indicators to complete, but he doesn't seem to like that there are too many people in the tower, so he would rather go out to perform tasks to offset the indicators than agree to the academy filling him with apprentices."

"It sounds like it is indeed the character of a mentor." Enzo smiled wryly.

According to such a long time of getting along, Enzo also has a certain understanding of Gustav's temperament. Although he attaches great importance to feelings, his personality is a bit indifferent, and he does not want to be fettered with too many people.

Before the war, he had been a first-order wizard for a long time, but he had only accepted two disciples in total.
