In the academy.
Lin An woke up in his dormitory.
The magic energy in his body had completely recovered.
Just as Lin An was worried that the city guards would come to seek revenge, he suddenly heard a series of sounds coming from the corridor outside.
“Hurry to the entrance of the academy. I heard that the city guards came to our academy to cause trouble. Teacher Xavier is fighting with the city guards.”
“What is the matter with the city guards? How dare they barge into our academy? Aren’t they afraid that the sorcerers of our academy will retaliate?”
“It is said that the son of the captain of the city guards, Brutus, had his legs burnt off by the students of our college. The city guards are here for revenge.”
“God, who’s so brave? I’ve always hated that Brutus.”
“Go, go, go, go, go, go!”
…
Hearing the conversation outside, Lin An’s heart tightened.
As expected, what should come will come.
He just did not expect the city guards to be so fast and even dare to barge into the academy.
Lin An did not retreat. Instead, he tidied up a little and walked towards the academy’s entrance.
Actually, Lin An could have escaped at this time, but Lin An did not want to do so.
After all, he hadn’t done anything wrong, so why should he run?
Most importantly, Lin An believed that the academy would protect him.
Otherwise, the academy would have just handed him over when they came to this place.
It didn’t take long for Lin An to arrive at the entrance of the academy.
From a distance, Lin An could feel the terrifying waves of magical energy.
With a glance, he could see that in the air, four magic sorcerers were casting spells and wreaking havoc in the direction of the city guards.
However, the city guards seemed to have a way to deal with the magic sorcerers. Each of them raised their shields and were actually able to block the magic attacks.
Moreover, from the shields, there would be a sword aura attacking from time to time, repelling the magic sorcerers from the academy.
This was Lin An’s first time witnessing a battle between a sorcerer and a swordsman, and he felt extremely shocked.
That terrifying magic seemed to be able to destroy everything. Lin An didn’t doubt that if he entered the battlefield, he would be instantly destroyed.
Although Lin An could cast a forbidden spell, his own realm was still too low.
When Lin An appeared here, Errol immediately noticed Lin An.
Errol instantly became even angrier.
“Don’t stop me, the murderer is right there! I must avenge my son!”
Errol waved his long sword, and the sword aura spread out wantonly, suppressing the four magic sorcerers in the academy.
This didn’t mean that the four magic sorcerers in the academy were inferior to Errol, but that they didn’t use their full strength.
After all, Errol belonged to the kingdom’s army. If they killed him, they would definitely attract a lot of trouble.
It was the same for the city guards.
Even if they had the chance to kill the magic sorcerers of the Hordtrotz Magic Academy, they wouldn’t do it.
No one could withstand the anger of the president of the Hordtrotz Magic Academy, an archmage.
At this moment, Lin An walked forward, he said loudly, “That person drove a carriage on the street and rammed into civilians. He even insulted the Hodtrotz Magic Academy on the street. Furthermore, he was the one who ordered the Fiery Horse to attack my companions first. We were only defending ourselves.”
Seeing that the teachers of the academy were fighting for him, Lin An stood out without fear.
Facing the fury of the city guards, Lin An understood that if this matter wasn’t resolved today, these people would definitely attack him behind his back.
At that time, Lin An would be very uncomfortable.
After all, facing the city guards who had the advantage in numbers, as long as he left the Hodtrotz Magic Academy in the future, he was afraid that he would be attacked by the city guards.
He might as well resolve this problem now.
Errol heard Lin An’s words, but he didn’t listen at all. He said angrily, “No matter what the reason is, you destroyed my son’s legs. Today, I’m going to make you pay with your life.”
A mere magic sorcerer apprentice was nothing in Errol’s eyes.
However, if Errol knew that Lin An had supreme-level elemental affinity, he might not think so.
“Hmph, you don’t deserve to touch the students of my Hodtrotz Magic Academy!”
The teachers of the academy were still very protective of Lin An.
Not to mention Lin An’s talent, just in front of everyone, if they compromised, then the Hodtrotz Magic Academy would probably bear a huge amount of notoriety.
“Is that so? You hurt my nephew, and your academy is covering up for the murderer. Do you really think that my York family is so easy to bully?”
At this moment, a voice was heard.
A dignified middle-aged man appeared in front of the city guards and looked directly at the teacher of the academy.
The appearance of this middle-aged man shocked everyone.
“It’s the mayor!”
“It’s rumored that the mayor of Rand Town had already reached the magic sorcerer realm more than twenty years ago. After so many years, even if he isn’t an archmage, he is about to breakthrough.”
“What a powerful aura. I didn’t expect that even the mayor would be alarmed.”
Many people exclaimed.
The middle-aged man in front of them was the mayor of Rand Town, Ed York.
In Rand Town, Ed’s strength was definitely ranked in the top five.
“Ed, are you really going to interfere in this matter? Aren’t you afraid that the dean will make a move?”
Xavier looked at Ed and felt a huge pressure.
Although they were both sorcerers, compared to Ed’s background, Xavier was clearly inferior.
This also made Xavier feel very helpless.
It was a very shameful thing for the Hodtrotz Magic Academy to fall to such a state.
One had to know that the other magic academies had at least four archmages holding down the fort. No one dared to provoke them.
As for the Hodtrotz Magic Academy, it was currently relying on the principal alone. Its prestige was clearly insufficient.
Otherwise, as long as there were four archmages in the academy, this Ed wouldn’t dare to appear in this place.
Ed’s expression was calm as he said calmly, “So what if it’s the dean? It’s a student from your academy who injured my nephew. Is he going to stop me?”
At the same time, Lin An, who was at the academy’s entrance, felt a terrifying spiritual force lock onto him. His hair stood on end.
“Hmph!”
At this moment, a delicate snort sounded from this place.
Everyone present felt as if they were in the middle of ice.
They saw a woman wearing a long white dress slowly walking over from within the academy.
