Chapter 141
"My teacher is Palbuchko the Starcaller," An Ruosi looked at Roland in surprise, "Don't you know it?"

"...No, I don't know."

When Roland heard An Ruosi's answer, his heart couldn't help jumping, and he denied it flatly: "I just used their names to scare that cultist."

If An Ruosi's teacher is really that one, then his lies in this regard are meaningless.

Just like the reason for Marco's retreat before - for the two powerful wizards who had vaguely come into contact with the High Spire before the revival of the plague, just calling their names would make them feel something.

It was understandable to use their names to scare off Marco before, but now to use their names to deceive An Ruosi is purely to make yourself uncomfortable.

But having said that... why did An Ruosi, as Palbuchko's apprentice, use the techniques of an enchantment wizard to perform spells?

Roland was full of doubts.

In fact, he wasn't very surprised that An Ruosi's teacher was Palbchko.

Starcaller is one of the few great wizards who like to teach students the most in the entire Overlook White Tower.On average, every three chiefs—especially the chiefs of the astrology department will almost all study under them.

Some people even said that if the White Tower hadn't collapsed, then after 30 years, [-]% of the high-rises overlooking the White Tower would be students of His Excellency the Starcaller.Even now, his students have become one of the largest factions in the White Tower.

If An Ruosi was recruited by the nobles of the White Tower as a commoner wizard, the most likely reason is that he was an apprentice of the five great wizards.

Although the one in the fifth tower of the White Tower hardly recruits apprentices, the great wizards of the other four towers have proved that none of the apprentices they personally selected will die in the middle of the journey as long as they do not die due to experimental failure or various accidents. Those who cannot reach the golden rank before the end of their lifespan.

As a profession based on knowledge, as long as the wizards of the White Tower can reach the golden rank, they are inseparable from these five.Even most of the dark wizards who betrayed the White Tower, their research results are more or less related to these five.

"That is to say, isn't your teacher Mr. Kravey?"

An Ruosi's expression was unimaginable: "Then how did you know the name of Mr. Kravey? And Merlin's law of variation..."

…Isn’t that what Merlin Your Excellency just proposed in the Supreme Council last month?
An Ruosi didn't say the last sentence.

Facing An Ruosi's question, Roland just shrugged his shoulders: "I'm not even a wizard, how could there be a tower master as a teacher."

If you are not a wizard, how do you know so many things that only wizards know...

An Ruosi sighed.

But thinking of Roland's various miraculous performances, he felt a little relieved.

Until now, An Ruosi didn't even know what Roland's occupation was—or rather, what department of occupation it was.

Say he is a druid, but he can sing prayers; say he is a priest, but he knows the law of Merlin's transfiguration that only a few wizards know.

You must know that, as the Tower Master of the Fifth Tower, His Excellency Merlin, there are only a handful of people who know him even inside the White Tower.

Your Excellency Merlin signed a contract with Ms. Anvilia when he first joined the White Tower.

According to the description of the contract, he is not subject to any White Tower laws, nor does he need to train apprentices.

All he needs to be responsible for is to build a new White Tower with all the data backed up in the Fifth Tower when the White Tower is cut off due to various accidents.

This is the only constraint imposed on him by Ms. Anvillia, the tower owner of the first tower, the strongest wizard in the world, and the founder of the Confused Witch.

An Ruosi felt a little flustered by Roland's erudition which touched the top secret level.

If His Excellency Palbuchko hadn't entrusted him with the task of cleaning the fifth tower, An Ruosi would never have had the opportunity to learn Merlin's real name.

"As for the name of His Excellency Clavi..."

Roland cleared his throat and showed a mysterious expression: "Do you know Dragon Hunter? Dragon Hunter Esther."

"Who is that?"

"A very tall liar who likes to wear gold-rimmed glasses..." Roland chuckled, "The only time Mr. Clavi was cheated in his life was when he fell on his hands. He and Esther are very good." Gambler."

That's right... If you think about how to chop off Esther's finger every day, you can still be considered a good relationship, then the relationship between them is really good.

"Esther and I belong to the same organization... Yali, you have heard of it."

"Ah, I know," An Ruosi showed a look of sudden realization, "I have several friends who are members of Yali."

... Tsk, this is not easy to handle.

Roland frowned.

I almost forgot about half of the wizards in Yali...

If you continue to pull it off, it will be easy to reveal your secrets. Thinking about it this way, Roland plans to make another big news——

"Your Excellency Merlin is also a member of Yali...you know that, right?"

"Eh?!"

Unsurprisingly, An Ruosi showed a look of surprise.

Seeing this, Roland couldn't help showing a smile.

In order to prevent internal division, the Grand Wizard is not allowed to join any organization outside the White Tower.But because of the contract between Anvilia and Merlin, Merlin will not be bound by this prohibition.

Having said that, ordinary wizards don't know about it.

Therefore, when Merlin discovered the identity of Commissioner Yali on the eve of the collapse of the White Tower, it still caused huge chaos inside the White Tower.

At that time, because of the rebellion of the White Tower's top management and the corruption of the middle-level managers, a large number of clergy entered the White Tower's territory through various means. Some wizards with key knowledge and abilities disappeared in batches. Their respective affairs did not lie in the White Tower. Merlin, the great wizard with the fewest students in the entire White Tower, suddenly became the focus of conflict under the deliberate guidance of those rebellious high-level officials.

For a time, the crowd was excited.

Not to mention Merlin, even those ordinary wizards who joined Yali were also implicated, restrained and attacked in many ways.So these wizards within Yali united not to be outdone, and the White Tower civil war was about to break out.

It was in this oppressive and chaotic environment that the priests suddenly launched an attack, captured the White Tower overnight, closed the barrier of the White Tower, and called on the gods to send envoys to knock down the White Tower.

As the saying goes, blocking is worse than sparse.

Just like the Tilance Dam that Roland detonated in advance.

Many disasters are caused by the accumulation of many negative effects.If these negative influences were exposed before they accumulated to the tipping point, many things would not have happened.

For example, if Roland told An Ruosi about Merlin, and quickly dealt with the matter perfectly while the five tower masters were around, Roland didn't believe that the priests could find any reason for the White Tower to be here. There was turmoil within a day.

The collapse of the White Tower can't be stopped, but knowing that the White Tower can resist a little and cause a little bit more damage to the gods, Roland can save a lot of effort when dealing with these guys during the revival of the plague in the future.

"...Mr. Roland," An Ruosi suddenly said to Roland, "The teacher just sent me a message saying that he hopes to see you."

"The teacher said, please come to the White Tower."
