Upon seeing Jenn's appearance, everyone shut their mouths immediately. In an instant, all sorts of gazes turned to Jenn from all directions.
There were excitement, anticipation, doubt, and fear.
Sensing the gazes, Zayen appeared to be very calm. He first swept a glance at the crowd below before he spoke.
"First of all, I would like to welcome all of you here. I would like to make it clear in advance that this is a brand new beginning for all of you. Besides, I request that all of you get rid of all the bad habits and bad habits that you have learned in the Magic Empire. From now on, you are no longer mages … No matter what kind of mage you were in the past, shut up and learn from the beginning.
I believe that all of you will have unforgettable memories from now on. "
With that said, Jenn revealed a meaningful smile. Upon seeing his smile, many of them began to feel uneasy.
And at this moment, Jenn's voice sounded once again.
"I know all of you are confused. You think that you didn't pass the test, but in fact, you have already passed the test … I'm not trying to comfort you. If you are still a mage, you just need to use your brain to think about the conditions I mentioned and you should understand what I mean."
"…"
Upon hearing his words, the crowd began to feel uneasy. Even though most of them were mage apprentices or low-level mages, many of them weren't stupid. Just like Hank, who wasn't too stupid but had limited development due to his lack of magical talent.
In fact, those who could become mage apprentices weren't simple at all. It was just like a freshman in a university and a lab rat in a laboratory. The latter might be as tired as a dog under the tutelage of a mentor or team leader, but in terms of experience and wisdom, they were definitely stronger than those who had just entered the university.
Shortly after, some of them revealed expressions of realization. Some of them didn't quite understand, but after listening to the explanations of the people around them, they understood the meaning behind it.
But even so, they were still bewildered.
And looking at the various' colorful 'expressions below, Jenn let out a chuckle.
"Do you think that this requirement is simple?
Of course, this requirement is indeed very simple, but I won't choose people based on such simple requirements … You guys … and you guys … and you guys … "
As he spoke, Jenn extended his hand and pointed to the people below.
"Why should I choose you?
The reason is very simple. You didn't back down. Even if I didn't give you a clear answer, you still fought to the last moment for your own destiny. You didn't give up easily like those idiots.
This is why I chose you. You are willing to work hard for this goal until the very last moment. This is what I want to see. "
At this point, no one spoke, including Hank. Everyone puffed out their chests and raised their heads. When they heard this, some even revealed proud smiles.
Indeed, just as Jenn had said, they had given it their all until their bodies could no longer keep up with their spirits. If it weren't for the suppression of these objective conditions, they would have definitely reached the top. As long as they could achieve their dreams, they had nothing to fear.
They had worked hard, and now, it was their turn to reap the rewards.
"Well, everyone, on behalf of Parsus, I now welcome you as the first batch of members to enter the campus city."
At this point, Zayen snapped his fingers. Along with his action, the lights in front of him lit up again, shrouding everything in its brilliance.
"Next, you can freely tour around under the guidance of my lovely subordinates. I think you will be interested in everything here."
After saying this, Jenn turned around and left, leaving the mages and apprentices to communicate excitedly with each other. They already knew the reason why they were chosen.
Besides, the conditions that Jenn mentioned were indeed in line with their pride. So at this moment, most of them were no longer as nervous and uneasy as before. Instead, they began to talk excitedly about what kind of life they were going to live in the future.
Jenn said that they were the new members of the 'campus city', so did that mean that they were going to a new city to start over?
Where was that city and what would it be like?
"All in all, since Sir Overlord said that we can wander around here, let's see what this place is first."
At this moment, an apprentice beside Hank suggested, and his proposal received the approval of many people. Naturally, Hank was no exception. They quickly formed a small group, left the hall, and walked out along the corridor.
And in the corridor outside the hall, Hank once again saw the young lady from before.
She stood there with a grin, gazing at the crowd in front of her.
"Welcome, everyone. Would you like to visit the Punisher?"
"The Punisher?"
Hearing the young lady's words, everyone was taken aback.
"The Victory is …"
"It's the warship that you are on."
While speaking, the young lady stretched out her hand.
"This is the Parsus Alliance Fleet's Killing-class dreadnought, the Punisher. We are currently heading to the campus city. I wish you a pleasant journey. If you have any places that you would like to visit, please let me know, and I will lead you there."
Hearing the young lady's words, Hank and the others couldn't help but be completely stunned.
This is a warship?
Although it wasn't that they hadn't thought about it before, to be honest, be it Hank or the others, they didn't expect to be on a warship.
The warship technology of the Magic Empire was very advanced, and Hank had experienced it a few times in the past. But even those powerful magical warships still gave people an uncomfortable feeling.
And now, the place they were in was very calm, and the roars of the magical furnaces couldn't be heard at all. Besides, the floor beneath their feet was also very flat without the slightest tremor. If it weren't for the young lady's words, they would have thought that they were in a building.
After all, the hall from before and the spacious corridor in front of him looked more like a building than a battleship.
How big exactly is this warship?
At that moment, Hank got curious.
