From Wild Mage to Wizard King.

Chapter 457 Apocalypse Academy
"Brilliant."

Walking out of the church area and standing on the street outside, Wendy looked back at the Pantheon Church, then at the Dawn Church opposite it. Her expression was a little subtle, and she didn't know what to say. Finally, she couldn't help but uttered two words.

If such a thing happened in Sinar, the Pantheon would have to kill all the heretics and raze the entire Dawn Church to the ground. Wendy never dreamed that they could be harmonious neighbors like they are now.

She visited almost all the churches in the cathedral district. Compared with the Pantheon in Sinnar, the churches of the committee were indeed well managed as described on the radio, and they were very harmonious with each other.

When she was walking around the church area, she even saw several believers leaving the church area, talking and laughing, after completing their daily prayers in different churches.

Walking onto the city streets, Wendy looked around at the city's scenery and buildings.

After observing for a few days, Wendy has completely forgotten all the nonsense on the Wisdom Book Forum.

The two cities she had seen so far had already crushed most of the cities in Sinnar. Only the capitals of a few major countries or the school cities of the Tower of Truth could be compared with them.

Moreover, the capitals of major countries rely on a constant supply of blood from local areas to maintain their operations. Once the blood transfusion is lost, the prosperity will soon disappear.

The prosperity of the school city is based on the school's permanent environmental transformation of the region. The artificially created high-concentration element environment creates the prosperity of the school city.

In any case, these cities built on countless resources or monopolized school technologies are few and rare.

But the committee’s cities are different. Although it is not clear how the committee did it, the two cities Wendy saw were quite exaggerated in scale and prosperity, and the happiness of the residents was also visibly high.

Wendy raised her head, looked at the clear sky, and fell into deep thought.

Actually, her original goal was to come and see what was happening with Donnar. If the situation was really as described on the Wisdom Book Forum, she would try to save Donnar.

but now.
Looking at the prosperous streets and happy people, Wendy felt that her thoughts were quite humorous.

Does Donnar need her to save him now? Sinnar is in a much worse situation than Donnar.

Wendy didn't know what to do next.

If it was according to the plan before coming to Donnar, if there was no problem in Donnar, she would plan to return to Sinnar, but Wendy didn't want to go back like this.

Listening to the voice of the man who called himself Teacher Xiao Hei in the headphones, Wendy touched the crystal card in her pocket.

Um.
We finally got the concession, so we might as well stay in Donnar for a while longer.

Wendy thought to herself.

The actual process of getting a permit is not that difficult though.

Wendy saw a dessert shop on the street out of the corner of her eye and her eyes lit up slightly.

As the first country to achieve large-scale sugar production, the reputation of the Committee's desserts has spread throughout Sinar. Even Wendy has heard of the reputation of the Committee's desserts.

Back when she was in the Tower of Truth, she saved some silver points and exchanged them with a merchant for a special cake that was said to be only available on the committee.

Wendy didn't know if it was unique to the committee, but it was definitely the best cake she had ever eaten. Even now, when she thought about it, Wendy could still remember the taste.

Wendy licked her lips.

That being said, let’s eat first.

After coming up with the idea, Wendy hummed a little tune she heard from the radio and walked slowly towards the Superhuman Dessert Shop.

Apocalypse College is one of several extraordinary colleges established by the War Committee during the war to train rapid-onset extraordinary people.

After repelling the Green Tide and establishing a compulsory education system, these extraordinary colleges, due to their foundation accumulated during the war, were all transformed into advanced colleges responsible for higher education.

However, due to the war period, the territory ruled by the War Council was only one-fifth of the current territory. If distinguished by the current territory of the Council, all the Extraordinary Academies are actually clustered in the Province of Apocalypse.

Therefore, in order to promote extraordinary education, under Roland's decree, all extraordinary academies began to relocate and merge, and seven higher education colleges were established in the seven provinces of the committee.

The names are in the format of province name + college.

Although Apocalypse College is a higher education college in Apocalypse Province, in order to speed up the development of education in other provinces, when Roland ordered the relocation, almost all extraordinary colleges moved out of Apocalypse Province.

The Apocalypse College was formed by merging the remaining parts of various extraordinary colleges, mainly various teaching equipment that were inconvenient to move.

Therefore, the situation of Apocalypse College is different from that of other extraordinary colleges. Other extraordinary colleges have sufficient teaching staff, but their teaching equipment is a bit poor, while Apocalypse College currently has poor teaching staff but strong teaching equipment.

At the entrance of Apocalypse College, the security guard opened the gate only after confirming the identity and passing the identity verification on the intranet.

After the school gate opened, the convoy slowly entered the college under the guidance of the college teachers.

This is Hayes's convoy.

Ever since the Silver Family killed the Silver Emperor on the Night of the Black Knife and formed the Regency Council.

The Silver Family, who were greatly disappointed with the previous Silver Emperor, also remembered Sophia's mother, the empress who was pushed to the throne by them at the beginning of her birth, but was later ruthlessly forced off the throne by them.

After experiencing this Silver Emperor, they also recalled the good things about the Queen.

Compared to this incompetent emperor, the empress who ascended the throne at a young age was excellent in almost all aspects. She showed outstanding talents since childhood, maintained the balance of the Silver Empire, and successfully won over a large number of princes and cultivated her own confidants.

Apart from being a little immature in conspiracy and emotion, which led to the occurrence of that conspiracy, the Queen had no shortcomings in almost all aspects.

Even when they were able to force the Queen to abdicate, it was the Queen who chose to abdicate on her own initiative. If she also didn't want to leave like this Silver Emperor, the Silver Family would not be able to do anything to her.

Unlike this helpless Silver Emperor, the Queen actually has several armies loyal to her and a large number of loyal extraordinary people. There are also many princes within the Silver Empire who are willing to submit to her.

In fact, in the War of the Roses, there were princes who were loyal to the Queen among both the rebellious and loyal princes. Although they were also fighting in the War of the Roses, their demands were different from those of other princes. They just hoped that the Queen would return to the throne.

If the Queen had not abdicated, and internal strife had really broken out, the Silver Family might not have been able to defeat the Queen.

In short, after the Night of Black Knife, the Silver Families thought about it and felt that instead of launching a new Silver Emperor, it would be better to put the Queen back on the throne.

Although the Queen has abdicated for many years, there are still extraordinary people and troops loyal to her within the imperial army; there are also many nobles and princes who still support her. If the Queen can be brought back to the throne, the chaos in the Silver Empire can be quelled more quickly.

But the queen no longer wanted to be the emperor. She just wanted to live in seclusion with Sophia. At the same time, as a high-level spellcaster in the Tower of Truth, Hess had little influence in the Parliament of Truth, but he was keenly aware that the high-level spellcasters in the Parliament of Truth seemed to be promoting an experimental project.

Since Hayes was a newly promoted guy, he was excluded.

At first, Hess didn't think anything was wrong until he noticed that there were fewer and fewer high-level spellcasters appearing in the Parliament of Truth and his unformed [spirituality] was reminding him that it was time to run away. Only then did he realize that something was wrong.

So, the master and the disciple hit it off and both agreed that they could no longer stay in the Tower of Truth, so they decided to run away without hesitation.

Hess contacted Roland, and after Roland welcomed him, Hess quietly left the Tower of Truth with his apprentices who were willing to run away with him.

Roland's arrangement for them was to come to the Extraordinary Academy to be teachers, with high salaries and flexible working hours. If they wanted to continue their research in the Tower of Truth, Roland was willing to provide help, but the results would be shared with the committee.

Sophia gently opened the curtains and looked around curiously at the academy where she might live for a long time.

As a project personally ordered and supervised by Roland, even the War Council, which was still in the reconstruction period, squeezed out a large amount of funds to invest in the construction of the academy.

The college did not consider cost at the beginning of the design, but only considered practicality and aesthetics, and made plans for future expansion.

All technical problems were solved at all costs. If they could not be solved, Roland would personally deal with them.

Inside the academy, towering spires pierce the sky, and the buildings are covered and inlaid with various gems. The internal magic array connects and harmonizes these gems, and the gems reflect soft magical light.

The bright stone bricks are neatly and uniformly inlaid on the ground. If you walk closer and observe, you can see that each stone brick is engraved with complex magic runes, which are faintly visible.

The buildings in the dormitory area not far away present an elegant streamlined design. Various extraordinary vegetation are planted in the dormitory area, occupying most of the area. Vigorous vitality spreads from the dormitory area. Against the backdrop of vegetation and vitality, the entire dormitory complex seems to be a part of nature.

The library is a majestic tower that reaches high into the clouds. Through the windows, you can see a large number of students holding books and walking around the various floors of the library.

A dark blue shield unfolded from the sky, enveloping the entire academy. Visible elements spurted out from the fountain in the central square of the academy along with the spring water, maintaining an environment with high element concentration in the academy.

Next to the fountain, there are rows of benches for students to rest.

In the square, students sat on benches, concentrating on studying the books in their hands. Occasionally, low voices of discussion could be heard. In the woods and by the lake beside the square, scattered students were also strolling and chatting leisurely.

Looking at everything in front of her, Sophia's mouth corners slightly raised.

Although she is new here, she thinks she will like it here very much.

Compared to the low pressure of Ginza and the darkness and gloom of the Soul School, Sophia prefers the peaceful and vibrant academy in front of her.

She turned her head and looked at a girl behind her who was reading a book and said.

"Mother, won't you come and see me?"

Compared to Sophia, her mother, as a silver noble who once served as the Silver Emperor, is relatively calmer because she is knowledgeable and experienced.

She closed the book gently and spoke in a calm tone.

"There will be plenty of time in the future. The War Council was established not many years ago, and the academy environment is a little worse. We need to learn to understand."

Sophia blinked, glanced at the beautiful scenery outside the window, lowered the curtains as if nothing had happened, and said with a smile.

"Yes~ Mother."

Hearing Sophia's obedient answer, she paused in closing the book, and realizing something was wrong, she looked up at Sophia and said with a tone of disgust.

"Your seriousness makes me sick, be normal."

After saying that, she also lifted the curtain on her side and looked towards the academy outside.

Looking at the academy that came into view, she was stunned.

As the predecessor, um, the predecessor of the Silver Emperor, I have seen all kinds of scenes.

(crossed out) I have never seen such a scene.

Did the War Council plunder some amazing treasure trove? So extravagant?
Looking at the huge academy in front of her, she, who had once inspected various extraordinary academies in the Silver Empire as an emperor, had never expected that an academy could be built in such an extravagant way, as if it were free of charge.

Although the Royal Academy of the Silver Empire covers a large area and also consumed a lot of resources and manpower, most of the materials are ordinary building materials. They just look beautiful and luxurious, but they are just worldly luxuries.

It's totally different from the Apocalypse Academy in front of us. It uses so many extraordinary materials and piles them up like crazy. How much money will this cost?

If I had so much money at the beginning, how many extraordinary legions could I have raised and how many confidants could I have trained?
She calculated in her mind, and the more she calculated, the more confused she became, and the more heartbroken she felt.

So many resources to build an academy? Is that committee chairman named Roland crazy?

When the carriage passed by a park, she saw a training ground made of mithril.

Staring at the training ground, she lowered the curtains, leaned against the wall with relief, closed her eyes, and had a look of neither joy nor sadness on her face.

"Oh, mother, don't think too much. You are just a mid-level spellcaster with limited hands and feet. You can't even beat me. Why think so much? Think positively. We will live here in the future, and we can use these things."

Sophia elbowed her mother with her right hand and chuckled.

"Hehe, I never enjoyed any happiness with you before, now I want to make it up to you."

"How dare you elbow me, you rebellious girl! You were so cute and clung to me when you were little. What did I do to make you disrespect me like this? You don't even want to call me dear."

The queen who was elbowed lay down, looked at Sophia with an aggrieved look on her face, and said with a tone full of sighs.

Looking at her mother who was suddenly acting, Sophia also sighed and spoke in a calm tone.

"Mother, are you a child?"

"Hmm? You can."

"Old Deng, why are you pretending to be so young?"
