Chapter 30: Long Chen
Looking at the completely invulnerable magic lock in front of him, the little face under El's hood frowned.
As the black-haired boy said before, Al should have made a business trip in front of him when he cracked the magic lock, which led to the deadlock behind him.
What exactly is the business trip?
If it weren't for the exam, Al could work backwards to think about what the problem was and how to avoid it.
This is a very important step, and when people learn something new, they often make mistakes over and over again, and then they keep summarizing and finally gaining valuable experience.
However, the current El obviously does not have this time, so he can only reset the magic lock.
Al pressed a mark on the magic lock with his finger, and the magic lock floated in an instant.
The thirty-two components are separated from each other in the air, but they seem to be connected by invisible silk threads, which is extremely strange.
The building blocks began to float in the air.
They spin, splice, and combine them so fast that it's hard to see.
With a bang, all the components were put together at the same time.
The magic lock fell back into El's palm.
While El is cracking the magic lock, the other apprentices are also cracking it.
The reason why a 'both' was not added is because there are still a few people who don't seem to have done anything yet.
One of them is a short little man, this is not the average Cheng dù's shortness, he is really too short compared to his peers, his height is only three or four years old Cheng dù of ordinary people.
This makes one wonder if he has some dwarf blood.
The Vima Empire is a pure human kingdom, and if there are aliens in normal times, it will almost always attract many curious eyes.
As a magical city, Valari is quite enlightened, so such aliens don't cause much fuss, and many academies also recruit such aliens as apprentices.
The short man placed the magic lock on the ground in front of him, clasped his hands to his chest, and looked around nonchalantly.
"There are so many stupid people, can't you do something as simple as this?" he muttered to himself.
His voice was not loud because he was talking to himself, but in this quiet examination room at this moment, he was still heard clearly by the apprentices around him.
Someone raised their head and cast an angry look at him.
But many more people have turned a deaf ear to this, and now the matter at hand is clearly more important.
The short man yawned boredly.
There was also a girl with glasses who didn't do anything.
After getting the magic lock, the girl didn't immediately start trying to crack it like the others, she put the magic lock in front of her, then picked up a pen and paper and began to calculate.
A blank piece of paper was quickly filled with calculations and symbols, and the girl moved her pen like a fly, without stopping for a moment.
The dark-haired boy who had spoken to Al before didn't do anything.
He stared at the magic lock in front of him with a blank expression, more in a daze than in thought.
I'm afraid that no one will have much expectation of the boy after seeing such a scene, but I'm afraid no one would have thought that at this moment, there are a large number of calculations and symbols flowing through the boy's mind, like a waterfall.
Sim looked up at his watch.
It's been an hour.
Dozens of apprentices have already managed to crack Goldbach's magic locks.
This did not surprise him.
Goldbach's magic lock, despite its elaborate design and millions of variations, is just a toy after all, even if the creator of this toy is a legendary mage, even if this toy can help people improve their spatial thinking skills, but it is still a toy anyway.
If a toy takes a person hours or even days to do casually, then it can't be considered a good toy.
Toys are only used to pass the time, not to consume time.
So it wouldn't be surprising that Sim had so many apprentices who were able to crack Goldbach's magic locks in an hour, and he had seen even better apprentices.
Of course, among this batch of apprentices, there are naturally geniuses who impress Sim a little.
For example, the boy who was supposed to have dwarf blood, he didn't act immediately at first, but it only took a few minutes from the time he started to break the magic lock to the time he succeeded in cracking it.
It's pretty staggering.
And the boy who was surrounded by young girls.
Seeing that guy surrounded by a group of beautiful girls before, Sim naturally noticed him, this sight certainly did not give him a good impression, he subconsciously felt that this guy should be a guy who deceived girls with sweet words and oily tones, such a person Sim had met many times in his apprenticeship, and it left him a hateful impression.
But this guy doesn't seem to be simple.
He was only half a minute slower than the boy of dwarf blood.
In addition, there are a few conspicuous guys who also look very good, such as the girl with glasses over there, and the leader who seems to be a group of teenagers, a tall boy who feels like he is from an extraordinary background, and so on.
But there are a few other guys that also make Sim feel a little concerned.
The black-haired kid over there has been in a daze for a whole hour, are you here to take the exam or are you here to be in a daze?
And the little guy in the cloak over there, how many times have you tried again?
Fortunately, such a guy should never be seen again after today, although Ceylon has been in decline a little lately, but it has never been reduced to the point of collecting garbage.
Sim thought so, and then inadvertently glanced in the direction of the black-haired boy, and then this glance made him froze in place for a moment.
The magic lock has been unlocked!
What just happened?
The black-haired boy Long Chen casually threw the structure of the last magic lock in his hand on the ground, and the magic lock that had been completely disassembled into thirty-two components was scattered like shredded pieces of paper.
"I didn't expect this to be so troublesome. Long Chen complained in a low voice.
Of course, what he was talking about was the magic lock that had been unlocked, but this magic lock was not unlocked by him, but by the miniature brain chip Aifeng Ten Generations in Long Chen's head.
Longchen is not a native of this world.
Although he has been in this world for nearly ten years, Long Chen still clearly remembers that he comes from a planet called Earth, a country called Hua.
Compared to this world, the world in which Longchen originally lived was a world with a higher civilization.
But maybe it's because he's been away for too long, for Long Chen, the world in his memory is a little blurred, and every time Long Chen thinks about it, it's like a wanderer who hasn't returned home for decades is missing his hometown, full of foggy memories and an indescribable faint sadness.
There's no going back.
Long Chen clearly recognized this.
