The Starlight Academy teleportation plaza was bustling with people.
More than a dozen teleportation arrays were arranged in a circle, placed at the center of the plaza.
Every moment, people were emerging from the teleportation arrays, and others were entering them.
On the edge of the plaza, Donohue watched the teleportation arrays, occasionally taking out his pocket watch to check the time.
After four or five minutes, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he waved to someone emerging from the teleportation array.
“Fleming, over here!”
Several students nearby were attracted by Donohue’s voice and followed his gaze. Seeing the emblem representing a Third-Rank Wizard Apprentice on the chest of the gray robe worn by the person, their eyes narrowed.
“A Third-Rank Wizard Apprentice, what subject’s instructor is he?”
“Third-Rank Wizard Apprentices aren’t necessarily instructors, they could also be Star Alliance cadres.”
“Wait, this person looks familiar… I remember now, it’s Fleming, the one who’s only second to Instructor Sherman and Instructor Corey, the fastest to advance to Third-Rank Wizard Apprentice!”
“Ah, so it’s him!”
Under the admiring gazes of the students, Fleming crossed the plaza and joined Donohue.
Donohue teased him, “You’re quite a celebrity in the Academy now.”
Fleming chuckled, “If we’re talking about fame, Senior Sherman and Senior Corey are the real celebrities. Not many people remember me, the third place.”
“Come on, third place isn’t enough. I’m not even qualified for the rankings.” Donohue said with a pout.
Fleming laughed, “You should be advancing soon.”
“Soon, it’ll be at most two or three years, I should be able to break through.”
“Have you decided where to go?”
“I don’t have much choice, I can only join the Star Alliance.”
With the increasing number of Third-Rank Wizard Apprentices, the teaching staff at Starlight Academy became increasingly oversupplied, and the Academy gradually raised its standards for instructor positions.
Nowadays, at least twelve Star Rings need to be constructed, or have achievements in the fields of “Potion Making,” “Puppetry Refining,” “Magical Artifact Manufacturing,” and “Bio-modification,” and pass the assessment, only then can a Third-Rank Wizard Apprentice qualify for the instructor position.
The remaining Third-Rank Wizard Apprentices either continued to serve as students in the Academy or joined the Star Alliance.
While the latter comes with certain responsibilities, they receive generous subsidies each month. Therefore, most Third-Rank Wizard Apprentices who didn’t meet the instructor standards chose this path.
Fleming was no exception.
However, he could construct his twelfth Star Ring next year, and then he could apply for the instructor assessment.
The benefits of instructors at Starlight Academy were far more generous than ordinary Star Alliance cadres.
The two reminisced for a while and then decided to go to the cafeteria for dinner.
As the number of students increased, the Academy subsequently added several more cafeterias.
Fleming and Donohue chose the second cafeteria, the one they first entered when they enrolled.
The prices of the recommended menu, which they had considered extremely expensive back then, were now nothing to Fleming.
They casually ordered several dishes, and the Water Elementals quickly brought them to the table.
Seeing Fleming’s unconcerned gaze towards the Water Elementals, Donohue teased him, “Looking at you like this, you haven’t stopped playing with the Water Elementals you’ve hidden in your mansion all this time, haven’t you? Are you bored?”
Fleming rolled his eyes, “I’ve been busy with the task of opening up a secondary magic stone vein these days, I’m working day and night, I haven’t been back to my mansion in the city for half a year.”
Donohue asked curiously, “I heard this time it’s a large-scale secondary magic stone vein?”
“That’s right, it’s led by Senior Artil.”
“Senior Artil, ah.” Donohue’s face showed undisguised envy, “Senior Artil is amazing, she can be the assistant to Lord Starfall, I heard that even Carolina and the Black Widow are very respectful towards her.”
Fleming smiled, “Senior Artil is a truly recognized student of the teacher, even without the identity of assistant, those two wouldn’t dare to be disrespectful to her.”
“That’s not the same, how many people in the entire Star Alliance have higher status than Senior Artil?”
Donohue picked up a piece of fish and put it in his mouth, chewing it a few times before swallowing.
“I’m actually quite puzzled, so many people took the assessment back then, why did Lord Starfall specifically choose Senior Artil?”
“Never mind the others, Senior Sherman and Senior Ethan were among the participants.”
Fleming hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice, “I heard that Lord Starfall is, it seems, female, so she chose Senior Artil as her assistant.”
Donohue was taken aback, “Really?”
“It’s just a rumor, I’m not sure if it’s true.” Fleming shrugged, “After all, besides the top few, no one has ever seen Lord Starfall’s true face.”
“Then where did this rumor come from?”
“It was said to be from Amy.”
Donohue suddenly realized.
If there’s anyone in the entire Star Alliance who has no power but is of such high status that no one dares to provoke them, it’s only Amy.
Amy’s origins are a mystery, they come and go without a trace, they are not Lord Sunan’s Magical Companion, yet they are deeply cared for and protected by Lord Sunan, and their status in the Star Alliance is transcendent.
Furthermore, it is said that Amy is extremely knowledgeable and knows a lot of information and knowledge about the wizarding world. Sometimes even the instructors have to ask them for advice.
They also know a lot about many things in the Star Alliance.
If it was Amy who said it, then the authenticity is very high.
After gossiping for a while, their topic turned to the Academy.
“Has anything interesting happened in the Academy lately?” Fleming casually asked.
“What interesting things can happen in the Academy?”
Halfway through, Donohue seemed to think of something and changed his tone:
“Speaking of interesting, there is one thing.”
“What?”
“The Academy recently installed a magical device, it’s said to be from the Star Alliance, it can monitor the energy particle fluctuations of the entire Academy, anyone who uses magic outside the magic cultivation area and the experiment area can be detected in the first place and alerted.”
“Last month, two students secretly dueled and got caught, they were fined a lot of contribution points, and they’re still in confinement.”
Fleming looked surprised, “There is such a magical device?”
“What are you talking about? It’s in the monitoring room right now, it’s called Star Eye.”
Seeing Fleming’s curious expression, Donohue said with a smile:
“The one on duty in the monitoring room this month is Instructor Innocent, I remember he admires you quite a lot. If you’re curious, go ask him and he’ll let you see the Star Eye.”
Fleming was instantly moved. The field he specialized in was precisely “Magical Artifact Manufacturing,” so he was curious about this magical artifact that sounded so strange, it would be a lie to say he wasn’t curious.
But he quickly realized, glanced at Donohue with a playful look, “I think you’re the one who’s more curious. Otherwise, why keep urging me to find Instructor Innocent?”
“Haha, I knew I couldn’t hide it from you.”
After being exposed, Donohue didn’t feel embarrassed, and said with a chuckle:
“But you’re curious too, aren’t you? What do you say, are you going?”
Fleming hesitated for a moment, but he couldn’t resist his curiosity and nodded firmly.
“Okay, let’s go find Instructor Innocent.”
After making their decision, they couldn’t even be bothered to eat, and immediately headed for the monitoring room.
The monitoring room was located in the center of the Academy, a white high-rise building.
An elite Double-Blade Spider Squad (100) was stationed right next to it. Once they discovered any violations in the Academy, a team of Double-Blade Spiders would immediately rush over to stop and arrest them.
A squad of five legendary elite Double-Blade Spiders was enough to easily suppress any student in the Academy except for the instructors.
After being checked by the Iron Golems guarding the door, Fleming and Donohue entered the building.
As soon as they walked into the hall, they saw a giant crystal ball placed in the center of the hall.
The crystal ball was about the height of a person, oval in shape, only a little pointed at both ends, looking like a crystal eye.
And inside this ‘eye’ was a lifelike three-dimensional holographic panoramic model.
Fleming only took one glance and recognized it as a panoramic view of Starlight Academy.
What surprised him was that there were many small green, yellow and blue spots on it, densely packed, there must have been two or three thousand of them.
Fleming was about to walk closer to take a look, but a staff member stopped him.
“Are you two here to borrow the Star Eye? Do you have a usage permission certificate?”
Fleming was stunned, then he heard Donohue explain, “Some missions require the use of Star Eye, those who accept such missions will receive temporary permission to use Star Eye.”
After explaining, Donohue said to the staff member, “We’re here to find Instructor Innocent.”
The staff member was about to speak when he heard a voice.
“Go down, I’ll take care of them.”
The staff member turned his head and saw it was Instructor Innocent, his expression immediately became respectful.
“Instructor Innocent.”
Innocent waved his hand, letting the staff member leave, and then turned to Fleming, a smile on his face.
“You came straight here as soon as you came back, I guessed it was for the Star Eye.”
Fleming was surprised, “Instructor knows I just came back today?”
“You’re now a Star Alliance cadre, you don’t need to call me Instructor, just use my name.” Innocent smiled, then pointed to the Star Eye, “The instructor on duty can see the situation of the Star Eye at any time, I knew as soon as you stepped into the Academy gates.”
Fleming and Donohue looked at each other, both a little surprised.
Is this Star Eye so magical?
It can actually monitor the movement of everyone in the Academy in real time?
“Want to take a look?” Innocent pointed to the Star Eye and said.
Fleming readily agreed, “Please, Instructor.”
Innocent smiled gently and took them to the Star Eye.
“The Star Eye is a magical device developed by Lord Starfall, this is the first finished product, specifically placed in Starlight Academy for practical use and to collect data.”
“It can sense all life forms within a certain range whose energy particle strength reaches a certain standard, capture their life information and record it, and then continuously monitor it in real time until the target leaves the monitoring range.”
“Basically, as long as it’s a creature that reaches the level of Probationary Knight, regardless of what type of creature it is, even a puppet, it’s within the capture range.”
Fleming was amazed, he pointed to the light spots on the Star Eye and said, “These are the life targets that have been captured?”
“That’s right, the green dots represent the Academy’s Wizard Apprentices, the yellow dots represent puppet creatures, and the blue dots represent alien races, different colors represent different power levels.”
Fleming carefully observed for a few times, he really found that there were two deep green dots in the monitoring room, and next to them was a spot that was obviously lighter in color, obviously the three of them.
Out of curiosity, Fleming reached out and tapped the green dot that represented him, and soon rows of text appeared.
[Fleming·Small, Human Male]
[Energy Level: 12 (Third-Rank Wizard Apprentice)]
[Identity: Star Alliance Cadre]
[Danger Level: None]
“We will record the corresponding information on the Star Eye for any life form whose information has been captured.” Innocent explained.
“Instructor, I heard that the Star Eye can also capture energy particle fluctuations emitted during combat.”
“That’s right, when creatures fight, they will emit more intense and active energy particle fluctuations, and the Star Eye can capture these fluctuations in real time.”
Speaking of this, a hint of teasing appeared on Innocent’s face.
“Thanks to the Star Eye, the number of secret duels in the Academy has decreased a lot recently, the poor Red-Eyed Ravens finally don’t have to work so hard.”
Fleming chuckled in agreement, but he was amazed at the same time.
Sure enough, the people who can be appointed by Lord Sunan as proxy controllers are not simple, they can even create such a magical and powerful magical device.
He almost immediately realized the powerful role the Star Eye could play in guarding specific areas.
With the Star Eye, any creature entering the Star Eye’s detection range would be immediately captured and monitored in real time.
Unless they could cover up their energy particle fluctuations and continue to do so, as long as they leaked even a little, they would be immediately captured by the Star Eye.
The existence of the Star Eye undoubtedly greatly reduces the possibility of being infiltrated or ambushed by enemies!
This thing doesn’t seem to have much significance at present, but if it’s used in future interplanar warfare, it will have a significant impact.
Even if it’s only used to defend their own territory, it can play a significant role.
“Instructor, how large is the effective range of the Star Eye?”
“The entire District 3 is within its monitoring range.”
Innocent reached out and tapped the surface of the Star Eye, and suddenly the panoramic view of the Academy shrank rapidly, the overall view pulled upwards, and two three-dimensional holographic models of tall towers quickly appeared in the view.
Fleming immediately recognized them as the Dragon Skeleton Tower and the Starlight Wizard Tower where Lord Sunan resides.
The number of deep green spots on the two towers far surpassed Starlight Academy.
After looking around for a while, Donohue couldn’t help but ask, “Where’s Lord Sunan’s spot?”
Innocent glanced at him and joked, “Do you want to monitor Lord Sunan’s whereabouts?”
Donohue realized his mistake at this time and chuckled awkwardly.
At this moment, the Star Eye suddenly buzzed, followed by a piercing alarm.
Everyone looked over in astonishment, and saw a conspicuous red circle appear on the Starlight Wizard Tower on the Star Eye.
