100: Chapter 100 Not just anyone can be a dog.

Yet at this moment, not a single person cared about the life or death of the Delicate Youth; their only goal was the items falling toward the ground.

Although the Stigmata Wizard might not value these things, for these Wizard Apprentices, they could be the turning point that changes their destiny.

At this moment, even Dylan could not stop the demands of the Fallen Sun Council members, because he was also one of them.

Moreover, from the moment those items appeared, his plan to turn the hill beneath his feet into a frontline to fight against those rebellious Families was shattered.

Not only were the members of the Fallen Sun Council rushing toward the direction where the items were falling, but the students who had originally been heading toward the hill, as well as the members of the rebellious Families, also changed their directions one after another.

Wizards are rational and calm, but they are also crazy.

Therefore, the moment the anomaly was discovered, Dylan ordered everyone to pursue an item individually and to regroup after ensuring their baseline safety.

Only in this way could they maximize their benefits without causing infighting or splitting up over a single item.

Besides this reason, what made everyone so crazy might also be because they understood in their hearts.

This life-and-death struggle had now entered its second stage, the stage of the item competition.

No one could be certain that there weren't unexpected offensive weapons among those things.

If the opposing side were to get their hands on them, this struggle could end early.

Whether for the sake of profit or their own safety, everything was forcing them into madness.

Just as all the Wizard Apprentices in the forest were falling into madness, in the hall of a certain building at the academy, the academy mentors who had been quietly watching all of this also caused a commotion after seeing this scene.

Their eyes involuntarily turned toward Vice Dean Conrad, who was standing at the very front, closest to the crystal screen.

Without his order, no matter how restless they felt inside at this moment, they had to forcibly restrain themselves.

And just at this moment, an old man standing in the corner with a hunched back suddenly spoke.

"Vice Dean Conrad, please rest assured. No matter what the Wizard Apprentices of my Family obtain, I am willing to hand it over to the academy and will never keep it for myself!"

Once these words were spoken, everyone present was no fool; they immediately understood what this person meant, and their eyes were filled with disdain and contempt as they looked at the old man.

However, besides these academy mentors, there was another group of people in the venue whose eyes, when looking at the old man, were not just filled with simple disdain and contempt.

Their eyes were filled with rage; if they weren't bound and imprisoned at this moment, they might have already rushed toward the old man and torn him to shreds.

And the person who spoke was none other than Lucius Thor of the Crimson Thorn Family, that extremely radical offensive faction member at the anti-academy meeting.

At this moment, the gloom on his face had already vanished, replaced only by endless sycophancy and fawning.

As for that group of people who couldn't wait to tear Lucius to shreds, they were naturally the other Official Wizards of the anti-academy Families.

As for why things had turned out this way, it had to start from more than ten days ago.

Originally, everything had been planned well; these Family Wizards were all prepared to enter the battlefield themselves to round up all those academy students and make this a settled matter.

But when they activated the teleportation array and rushed to the battlefield,

to everyone's surprise, they did not appear in that forest, but instead appeared above the Dark Eclipse Wizard Academy floating high in the sky.

Waiting for them was not the academy students they could slaughter at will, but the academy mentors.

As for why this happened, it goes without saying: it was Lucius who had secretly modified the teleportation array, changing the destination to the academy.

As for why not a single Wizard noticed, it was naturally because they had all been deceived by Lucius's usual behavior.

How could others have imagined that someone who was so hateful, or even hostile, toward the academy at meetings, and who was the most radical person, would actually defect to the academy?

However, among this group of people, the Round-faced Old Man, who was the former leader of the rebellious Families, looked at Lucius with eyes that, while containing anger, were filled more with confusion.

He had known Lucius for so many years that they could be considered brothers from different parents.

He couldn't understand why Lucius wanted to be a dog for the academy, and even more so, why he hadn't called him along when he went to be a dog.

He could also be a dog; that was something they could have discussed!

But why hadn't Lucius called him along?

As for the Round-faced Old Man's question, Lucius hadn't even thought about it.

After all, if both leaders of a rebel organization went to be dogs for the academy, what value would that rebel organization have? What a bad impression would that make on others who saw it?

Others would think the academy was conducting sting operations.

Moreover, if there were two dogs, how would that highlight his own importance? Wouldn't that diminish his own contributions?

However, Lucius wouldn't say these things out loud, even if the Round-faced Old Man asked; after all, it was better to say less when it came to things that affected unity.

It was better to just keep some things to himself; once said, the nature of the situation would change.

At this moment, Lucius didn't care at all about the gazes everyone was casting at him; all his attention was focused on Vice Dean Conrad, who was standing at the very front.

He knew clearly in his heart who was the one holding his destiny in their hands.

Vice Dean Conrad, who was standing in front of the screen watching the actions of the apprentices, slowly turned around to look at Lucius after hearing his words.

Under Vice Dean Conrad's gaze, Lucius lowered his head even further, and the sycophancy on his face did not diminish in the slightest, even if Vice Dean Conrad couldn't see it.

Seeing Lucius lower his head, Vice Dean Conrad also turned his head to look at the other academy mentors.

Under Vice Dean Conrad's sweeping gaze, the other academy mentors all avoided his eyes one after another.

Seeing this, Vice Dean Conrad finally withdrew his gaze and slowly spoke: "I know clearly in my heart what you are thinking, and I also know what you want to do."

Once these words were spoken, the breathing of the academy mentors involuntarily became a bit more rapid.

But Vice Dean Conrad's voice did not change because of their reaction; it remained just as calm.

"But I can tell you clearly: don't even think about it. It is impossible for me to agree, so quickly forget those thoughts in your minds."

"Although those things might be extremely precious, and even objects coveted by Official Wizards, they are not things we should touch."

"Have you forgotten what the Stigmata Wizard of Phantom Nightmare Binding just said? Those things are rewards for those Wizard Apprentices, not for us."

When everyone present heard this, it was as if a basin of cold water had been poured over their heads.

Almost instantly, it extinguished the confusion and excitement in their hearts on the spot.

"So, are you still going now?"

Once these words were spoken, everyone present shook their heads one after another.

That was something said by a Stigmata Wizard, and even a Guardian Stigmata Wizard at that; who present dared to disobey him?

Even if they were lent ten times the courage, they wouldn't dare.

After all, these people were not like Isolde and the others, who had massive backgrounds; they had no one backing them.
