"Calm down, Weber. The two directors of the Astrophysics Department are dead, and they're probably busy fighting amongst themselves right now. Forget about Chaldea, they should sort out their own family affairs first. Besides, the Clock Tower won't allow them to control Chaldea anymore."
Before he could finish speaking, Luo Wei said calmly, "As for the issue of ability, that's even more interesting. Don't I know your abilities? If you were truly mediocre, I wouldn't have chosen you for such a position, would I? Others may think you became a monarch by luck, but I know that your abilities are far beyond those of a monarch. You would be more than qualified to be the director."
"No, that's not right. Would the other families agree to that?"
Webber was speechless for a moment after being put to the spot by Loewy, and then subconsciously thought of the group of lurking magicians in the Clock Tower. But as soon as he said it, he realized that he had made a foolish mistake.
Chaldea and Lovi have terrified the Clock Tower, making them afraid to make the slightest move, and naturally, they wouldn't dare to disagree. If word gets back from here, it'll be said that Lovi is a supreme god in the Clock Tower's eyes.
Whoever Luo Wei designates, that's who; no one dares to have any objections.
only……
They dared not have any complaints about Lowe, but they could have complaints about themselves. Even if they didn't say anything, Weber could foresee how much trouble would follow.
Not to mention he's still working tirelessly on his Modern Magic Department, with so many students in the classroom. It would be too... exaggerated for him to become the director of Chaldea.
After thinking about this, Weber decisively brought out his students, and upon hearing his words, Lowe laughed even more happily.
"Why don't you just bring them all with you?"
Hello, students.
Having students is perfect.
Chaldea lost so many employees in one bombing, and so many Masters were sent back. Now is the time when they need manpower.
Compared to those magicians who were randomly placed in the classroom, Webber's students are much more reliable. After all, everyone knows how valuable Webber's classroom is.
When the time comes, after I leave, Waver will become the director, and his students will become staff or Master trainees, providing a one-stop employment service. Even if some special singularity does occur, there will be enough people to go and repair it, so that Gudako and Suga will not be left running around all by themselves.
Upon hearing Loewy's words, Weber was completely stunned.
He realized that the other party was not only after him but also had designs on his students, which gave him a headache.
However, after careful consideration, he also realized that this was entirely beneficial to them.
After all, Chaldea is now practically a holy site in the eyes of the Clock Tower, and countless magicians are scrambling to get in. His direct admission is truly the greatest reward.
His appointment as director would undoubtedly elevate his status and reputation within the Clock Tower to its peak. He might even be considered a messenger of the gods, and he would certainly gain immensely from that.
only……
Weber, thinking of the scrutiny that would follow fame, and the discontent and trouble that would arise from someone of his stature sitting in this position—though they wouldn't say it, it certainly wouldn't disappear—postponed taking the position, citing his heavy workload as the reason.
However, he could take a position at Chaldea, either as a commander or an advisor, and Waver would have no objection if his students were willing to join. As for the position of director, he would pass.
Luo Wei did not insist on this.
The reason for looking for a new director was that Dr. Roman said he was too tired, so he asked Lowe to find a prestigious, trustworthy and capable person to take over, and the first person he thought of was naturally Weber.
However, since the other party declined, he would not force the issue.
Anyway, there are other candidates. Although they are not Webber's first choice, they are still good and reliable.
In the end, Waver agreed to join Chaldea as a consultant for modern magic, but he could only stay in Chaldea for ten days a month, and he had to return to the Clock Tower to handle matters related to the Department of Modern Magic for the remaining twenty days.
In response, Lo Wei, on behalf of Dr. Roman, welcomed him to the team.
And it suggests that we should wait and hold onto hope.
Once the Servant system is upgraded and improved, the first thing you'll be asked to do is summon Iskandar, and you can still be the Master of the Conqueror King.
Upon hearing this, Weber smiled broadly and replied:
"I'm really looking forward to that day."
Just as the two felt they had talked enough and were about to go out to rescue Roman, who was surrounded, they casually asked him about his vision for the future of Chaldea.
boom! !
Suddenly, the outside door was pushed open forcefully.
Then came a rapid panting sound, and what came into view was the hair color that Dr. Roman was familiar with.
He was covered in sweat and looked pale. He saw Rowe and Waver sitting at the table talking, and then glanced at Artoria who was silently eating a rice cracker. He hurriedly shouted.
"Love! Something terrible has happened! We have to go back!"
"Just now, just now—my communication with Chaldea was severed by an external force! Something must have happened to Chaldea!"
Dr. Roman shouted out in extreme anxiety.
"..."
In an instant, the previously harmonious atmosphere in the room became tense. As Artoria sharply ate the last few pieces of rice cracker, the cup in Lovi's hand shattered at that moment.
At that moment, all the magicians who had entered felt a chill run down their spines.
Weber suddenly realized something.
"Could it really be—?!"
Chapter 330 Blitzkrieg Chaldea
Communication with Chaldea has been cut off?
Upon hearing this news, Luo Wei, who had been in a good mood, was slightly stunned.
Then his eyes turned slightly cold, and even the magical power that had been emanating from his body was quietly released at this moment, and a terrifying sense of oppression immediately enveloped the hearts of all the magicians, including Waver.
Just as mystery yields to higher mystery, and the weak fear the strong, such is the fundamental principle. Although Lovi is like the ocean when calm, seemingly vast and unfathomable, one does not directly feel its terror; instead, one is drawn to its vastness and charm. However, when he is enraged, he undoubtedly brings forth a monstrous storm.
At this moment, faced with such an absolute and mysterious disparity, these magicians couldn't help but tremble and kneel down.
Because they felt that their lives might be taken away at any moment.
"—"
However, Rowe did not do that. He simply glanced calmly at these guys, then at Weber, who also had a horrified expression, and at the worried Dr. Roman, and asked.
"Can you tell me what exactly happened? My patience is running out..."
He glanced at the magicians kneeling before him and said, "Give me a definite answer."
"Please calm down, regarding this matter..."
"We...we really don't know anything!"
The magicians under Loewe's gaze looked flustered, and then spoke in trembling voices.
They weren't lying; they really didn't know anything about this.
Although they had indeed considered forcibly occupying Chaldea before, their plans had long been suppressed by the various faction rulers. They wouldn't act rashly before thoroughly investigating Lovi's true nature. Now that they had witnessed genuine miracles and mysteries, they naturally wouldn't do anything so foolish again.
Therefore, the problems that happened at Chaldea this time really have nothing to do with them.
However, only they themselves know the truth. Lovi certainly wouldn't believe it. After all, he and Roman had just come out because of their invitation when their contact with Chaldea was cut off. He definitely wouldn't believe that what happened during that time was just a coincidence.
This must have been premeditated.
This resulted in the magicians present being unfairly blamed; they genuinely had no idea what had happened.
However, they also know what they should be doing now.
Everyone looked at Luo Wei nervously, their hearts filled with unease.
They knew very well that if they didn't give Luo Wei an explanation today, not only would they not be able to save their own lives, but their lifelong pursuit of the truth would also be cut off. They had to find a way to give him an explanation no matter what.
But they couldn't lie, so they could only ask Lowe for more time so they could discuss it and then speculate on what had happened.
"No need, I think I know what's going on."
But just as they were racking their brains trying to figure out what had happened, Weber, who was sitting to the side, seemed to suddenly remember something. He stood up and spoke with a serious expression.
"Really? El-Melloi II, do you really know what happened?"
Upon hearing Webber's words, the previously tense magicians turned to him as if they had encountered a savior, eagerly asking questions and wanting to know what had happened.
Which damned guy dared to do something like this?
Isn't this blatantly trying to kill them all?
If they find out who's behind this, they definitely won't let that guy get away with it!
When faced with their question, Weber did not answer immediately, but instead asked them a question: "Haven't you noticed that since the plane took off, there seems to be something missing from the team?"
"Is something missing...?"
Upon hearing this, the magicians present were all taken aback, and then began to look at each other, seriously considering the question posed by Webber.
After exchanging glances and a brief moment of thought, they quickly spoke up the extremely conspicuous and equally unmissable name they had guessed.
"Legal Affairs Department?!"
They blurted it out without prior arrangement.
Upon hearing the name mentioned, Weber didn't keep him in suspense any longer, nodded, and replied.
"Exactly."
He explained, “The Legal Affairs Department, as the manager of the Clock Tower, has not shown any trace since boarding the plane. Originally, I thought that after what happened, they were just unable to meet with Luo Wei again. But upon closer inspection, things are definitely not that simple. The Legal Affairs Department would not swallow such a huge loss so easily. So there is only one truth.”
Waver lowered his head, looking at the other magicians who were filled with surprise and uncertainty, and slowly revealed the truth: "The Law and Politics Department also came this time, but they moved faster than us, and their itinerary seems to be more covert. Moreover, they did not come with good intentions this time; they probably want to continue to seize Chaldea."
"—?!!"
Upon hearing this, the magicians, who had been racking their brains for an answer, all widened their eyes in surprise.
They looked at Weber, then thought about the political science department, and couldn't help but burst into a tirade of curses.
"Damn it! Those stupid groundhogs!"
"The Legal and Political Department, what on earth are those lunatics trying to do?! Are they trying to drag the entire Clock Tower down with them?! Bastards! Damn bastards! They're trying to kill us all!!"
"Don't they have brains?"
Upon learning the truth, all the magicians present could no longer remain calm, and they began to hurl insults at the Department of Law and Politics.
"Where is Barthez? Surely Lord Barthez wouldn't be so foolish as to do something like this?!"
When things reached this point, people quickly thought of Barthezmello.
"Have you forgotten? Lord Barthezmello is not here. The current agent of the Legal Affairs Department is that useless person from the Investigation Department."
His reply was an even angrier one: "Damn it! He's really going to get us killed!"
"—?!"
