Becoming a Wizard by Starting From the Mind Closure Technique

Chapter 684: Chapter 194: Launching a Sudden Arrow_1

“Hehehe…”

Dean Frist began to laugh with joy.

“This little trick the kid played is quite interesting.”

Principal Leopold also expressed admiration, filled with envy.

Why didn’t Mesopotamia University produce such promising talents?

No matter what his motives were, Link’s move was a masterstroke, bluffing and startling the opponents, embodying the essence of appearing weak when strong and vice versa.

He successfully disrupted the rhythm of the Great Sage Tower Team and the Shadow City Team, buying time for the return of Ravensmouth College’s Warship.

“Captain Grande.”

On the “Lark” class interstellar battleship, in the cockpit, Link’s figure abruptly appeared.

Upon seeing Link, Lanny Taylor stood up immediately and greeted him.

“Hello, Captain.”

Even though some were unwilling, they ended up greeting him out of respect for the college’s rules.

“Hmm, hello everyone.”

Link nodded, scanning each of the eleven team members, starting with Lanny, and said, “Please, sit. You must all be frustrated with me for dragging you around on this mission. Take your time, speak one by one. Speak your mind.”

As he spoke, Link had already taken a seat in the seat reserved for the captain.

His eyes briefly glanced at the image of the Great Sage Tower and Shadow City teams on the main screen.

At this moment, both teams had discovered the traces of Ravensmouth College’s Battleship, but they were unaware that Link had quietly returned to the battleship.

Both teams were still confronting each other, still on guard, still waiting.

Link, upon returning to the battleship, had ordered Franda to continue causing disturbances, so as not to alert the two teams.

An illusion was created every few minutes. It was like playing the game of “Crying Wolf.”

“Hmph!”

The scion of a great family, who had slandered Link, angrily stood up.

He started with a cold snort and then reproached Link sharply, “Link Grande, as the captain, instead of properly completing the task, you’ve been messing around. You owe us, and the college, an explanation, not asking us to speak our minds!”

Link remained unmoved upon hearing this.

The Tower Spirit in this warship had already been “reformatted” by him to fit his mold.

The conversations that took place in the cockpit involving Link were given priority for recording by the Tower Spirit.

The moment Link sat down on the captain’s seat, he had seen several dialogues pop up on the smart screen.

This man from a great family’s statements were pushed out as a top story by the Tower Spirit.

“Does anyone else hold this view? Don’t hold back, speak all together.”

Ignoring the angry scion, Link calmly awaited the criticism from his other teammates.

Unfortunately, no one voiced their agreement, leaving the guy looking rather isolated.

The snooty child turned to the left and the right, utterly upset.

People had complained privately about Link Grande’s actions.

So why, in front of the main character himself, had everyone gone quiet?

Not one person dared to stand up.

Disappointing!

Unworthy of a plot!

“Um…”

Upon seeing this, Link considered a moment, then sincerely said, “Truthfully, I have no desire to be embroiled in this dispute or seize the Saint’s inheritance. But this mission is not only mine but all of ours. Let’s vote. The minority will follow the majority. We will decide whether to get involved based on the voting result.”

Having said that, Link took out simple pens and papers, asking Lanny to give them to the other ten members one by one.

“Those who prioritize the mission and choose to get involved, mark a single line. Those who don’t mind failing the mission and prefer avoiding trouble, mark two lines. When you have finished, give it to me. You may try to hide your choice from other teammates. This is a secret ballot.”

After explaining the voting rules, Link wrote first, marking two lines openly on his blank paper before returning it to the team.

This was him asserting his firm standpoint.

Lanny Taylor immediately followed, also marking two lines on the blank paper openly.

Of the other ten wizards, those who were straightforward and believed in Link did the same.

However, the number was not many, only three.

The remaining seven wizards.all used means to hide their actions, preventing others from seeing their choices.

Although Link had the ability to see through those covers, he didn’t do so.

It wasn’t necessary.

“6 to 6, it’s a draw.”

In front of everyone, Link opened seven folded papers and announced the voting result.

This result was somewhat surprising yet reasonable.

That’s the problem with even-numbered teams.

Unless Link decided to exercise his privilege, declaring that as the captain, his vote counted as two.

Or in a gesture of impeccable integrity, declared that he as the captain would not participate in the voting process.

“What should we do now?”

Faced with this outcome, Link chose to toss the ball to the other eleven wizards’ court, “Dare I ask, if we divide into teams, those who do not wish to be involved will not participate? Those who want to complete the mission will contend for the Saint’s inheritance? That doesn’t seem right, either.”

While speaking, a troubled expression appeared on Link’s face, as if he had been genuinely stumped.

The eleven wizards, including Lanny, didn’t believe this for a second.

Lanny even suspected that Link had already calculated this outcome, which was why he’d initiated the vote in the first place.
