Chapter 460: Chapter 445: Monroe’s Wizard Collapse Theory!
Under Del’s continuous narration, the Wizards present grew increasingly eager for the magic train currently under construction.
Once the railway was laid, the train would be able to reach any city within the kingdom in just three days.
Furthermore, fifty such trains were to be constructed for internal transportation and passage requirements of the kingdom.
“That’s incredible!”
Lucas exclaimed, picturing trains as large as serpents speeding across wilderness, their wheels booming loudly as they transported vast amounts of goods to every corner of the kingdom.
In just over an hour, he had experienced too many shocks.
Airships that could carry dozens of people and were bigger than houses soared into the skies, combat aircraft that could launch beams of light at extreme speeds, and powerful magic capable of annihilating punitive forces and turning an area of several tens of kilometers into scorched earth…
And then there was this magic train that could in a short time traverse hundreds of kilometers, deploying a whole legion throughout the kingdom. Lucas felt as though he was in a dream.
Apart from Monroe and Ivina, who had different thoughts, the rest of the Wizards were equally excited.
In the past, they had lived in hiding within the Empire’s borders. Once a Wizard’s identity was revealed, it would incite pursuit from the church and looks of fear and suspicion. Many had even begun to doubt whether their path of learning magic and seeking the truth of the world was correct.
The towering church was like a mountain pressing down on everyone’s heads, so vast and grand that it made them breathless!
Only now did they realize that perhaps the church was not so formidable after all, and that Wizards could indeed be so powerful!
Watching everyone’s astonished reactions, Del shook his head amusedly. This was just in Fire Oil City, which they had only recently occupied. If they were in the capital, there would be even more novelties, so many that even he was often surprised…
“This will be your residence from now on!”
Del led everyone through the west district to the academy being refurbished.
Originally a school of the church designed for noble children and the training of nuns, it had now been revamped. Although its function as a place of learning hadn’t changed, the teachings were no longer of the Bible, but of magic!
Although Lucas and the others were Wizards, they were new to the place, so Del didn’t lead them directly to their accommodations but instead began with a test of Wizard levels.
It was only after entering the college that Ivina realized they were not the first to arrive. The place was bustling with at least a thousand Wizards, all seemingly having escaped from the Empire to Fire Oil City through various channels.
“Because it’s a special period, there is a small test…” At this point, Del paused significantly before having someone bring over a stack of slips of paper, which he handed out to each person present.
“Next, you only need to read what’s written on these out loud,” he said.
Ivina received a slip and after seeing the content, her pupils shrank, and a strange expression appeared on her face.

Monroe was outright stunned; he hadn’t expected these Wizards to come up with such a sly and malicious idea.
“Is this a display of distrust towards us?” asked a good-looking witch lightly, trying to maintain a sense of humor.
“No, this is Master Lynn’s private grudge, so everyone entering the city must curse once,” Del shrugged, unwilling to take the blame.
Only the star of magic would dare such a thing.
In fact, using this cunning trick, they had already caught several dozens of the church’s spies.
“The Moon Goddess ‘Ella’ is a bitch, and she will one day pay for her evil deeds…” Lucas read the words on the paper without hesitation, his tone filled with a refreshing touch of righteous indignation.
Soon, more and more Wizards began to speak.
Each piece of paper had different content, but without a doubt, all were words of cursing.
Many apprentices initially hesitated, as they had been subjects of the Empire before becoming Wizards, having an inherent fear of the high and mighty Moon Goddess and the creator touted by the church,
but in such an atmosphere, they quickly overcame their fear of that divine entity, and some even found cursing insufficiently satisfying, making their words increasingly harsh.
Monroe’s anger nearly reached its threshold, but when Del swept a glance at him, all that rage turned into bone-chilling coldness.
Sweat dripped from Monroe’s brow as he looked at the malicious words on his slip of paper, finding himself in a dilemma.
To curse or not to curse, that was the question…
…
In the evening, in the Wizard College within Fire Oil City, Ivina and Monroe, having completed their level assessments, walked into the faction residential area they had been assigned.
Upon closing the door, Monroe immediately checked the room, then took out a Crystal Ball from his bosom. Seeing that it didn’t light up, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that those Wizards hadn’t cast any strange magic in this room.
It was only then that Monroe vented the anger he had accumulated all day.
“These demonic minions, these damned madmen dare to blaspheme the great creator!” Monroe whispered furiously, his fist slamming hard against the wall. After venting for a while, he soon closed his eyes and made a prayer gesture, repenting his sins to the great creator in his heart.
