For the Wizard of Leiting, darkness will never be an obstacle. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
The light emitted by the magic flares can dispel darkness and bring light. Before the establishment of the Wizards' Guild, the Letting people believed in the god of light, so in the past, the Lighting magicians were regarded as the spokesmen of the gods.
After the establishment of the Wizards' Guild, the Magician of Leiting, who joined the Wizards' Guild, announced that the God of Light did not exist, triggering the "War of Faith" in the world of Leiting. After the end of this unprecedented melee, with the fall of hundreds of thousands of lives, atheism became the dominant belief in the world of Leiting, and the belief in the god of light became heretical.
Gray told Maier that whether it is the "God of Light" believed in by the Leiting people, the "Heaven" believed in by the Taeyong people, or the "Great God of Apocalypse" in the eyes of the Ira people and the Ira Youkai, they are actually the same existence. The worlds that have been involved in the cataclysm have all had the era of "monotheism" without exception, and the one who is worshipped as the "one god" by each world is the one who created everything.
"I don't care if any of you secretly believe in the God of Light, it doesn't matter to me."
At the summit of Mount Sagrama, Shata spoke to the students in a bland voice, surrounded by colorful magic flares.
"Whether the god of light exists or not, magic exists. You can see it with your own eyes, you can feel it with your own eyes, and that is the evidence. You have the ability to use magic, that's reality. People must learn to accept reality. In the years to come, you will encounter many more difficult situations than climbing Mount Sagrama on foot, and I hope that you will be able to overcome them on your own strength as you do today. β
At this point, Shata turned her gaze to Alice, who was controlling an orange flare.
"Of course, if you're a woman, you have a fiancΓ© who loves you. Then you can also overcome difficulties by lying on his shoulders as you did today. β
Leiding magic relies heavily on brain power, so Leiding magicians are generally very average in terms of physical fitness, which is also the origin of the saying "Leiding magicians have poor hand-to-hand combat ability". Halfway up the mountain, many students can't hold on.
The experience of doing rough work in Byronsburg made Mel more physically fit than the others. Even without this experience, Mair had been up and down the mountain for seventeen years, and his physical strength was much stronger than that of the average Lighting magician.
Alice can't. Although she thought she was in good physical strength, it was really just her own thought, and the reality was that she was so tired that she knelt on the ground before she had even climbed halfway up the mountain, gasping for air. Seeing that Alice could no longer walk, Mel took the initiative to carry her on his back, and carried Alice all the way to the top of the mountain under the stunned and envious eyes of everyone.
Alice knew that Shata was talking about herself, and two blushes immediately rose on her face. In fact, the sunrise had already begun when everyone reached the bottom of the mountain, but Shata still asked everyone to build a magic flare according to her request. If the magic flare goes off without her permission, it will be severely punished.
By the time everyone was about to reach the top of the mountain, the morning sun had already risen, and the light of the magic flare was quickly compared to the early morning sun. At this point, Shata made a new request, and she asked all the students to find a way to adjust the brightness of the magic flare so that it could remain visible to the naked eye in daylight conditions.
Sata didn't let the students use the original white light magic flare in the first place, so the magic flares controlled by the students were all colored light. Sata says that those who don't meet her requirements will be deducted points during the monthly exams, so the students are racking their brains to keep the magic flares visible to the naked eye.
As the only student to have ever participated in actual combat, Maier has a lot of experience in the use of magic flares. He knew that in order for the magic flare to be visible during the day, it was not necessary to increase the brightness, but also to make subtle adjustments to the color of the light, increase its contrast with the surrounding environment, or directly adopt the means of superimposing luminous structures, which were all tricks.
Alice is skilled with magic flares, but she lacks practical experience. Seeing that she had been trying to increase the output of the light-emitting structure, Maier whispered these tips in her ear. Mel's hot breath sprayed on Alice's ears, making her feel itchy and warm in her heart.
As Shata examines the students' magic flares, she soon discovers that both Mel and Alice have adopted the practice of stacking glowing structures. Sata knows this trick of firing magic flares during the day, but because of this, she becomes curious about the identities of Mel and Alice.
This trick may seem simple, but only a few people know about it, and most of them are still in the military or have served in the military.
Normally, there is only one light-emitting structure and one propulsion structure in a magic flare, and the time-delay fuse needs to be added as appropriate. According to the common sense in the eyes of the Ryding magician, the superposition of two pillars of light of the same color will not change the intensity of the light. Since a single light-emitting structure can change the intensity of light by adjusting the power, it makes no sense to think about it according to the common sense of the Lighting magician.
But the fact is that when multiple luminous structures are superimposed, they can not only increase the intensity of light, but also increase the penetration of light, which is obviously contrary to common sense in the eyes of the Ryding magician. This phenomenon became even more pronounced after the formation of the New World.
Since this phenomenon is not conducive to the education of students in the Academy of Magic, no one dares to teach even if there are instructors in the Academy of Magic who know this little trick.
Exeter ...... Scrandi ......
Shata silently recited the fake surnames of the two, both of which were very ordinary. Shata thought that most of the two had relatives who had served in the military, so she learned this little trick.
Maier and Alice's first class at the Leting-Sackin Academy of Magic was at the top of Mount Sagrama. Shata demonstrated the firing structure to the students at the top of the hill and then began to build a firing structure at the slowest speed for the students to memorize.
Mel knows how to use the fire structure, and he often uses ignition skills when making fires in the wild, and he is so proficient in using them that he doesn't need to learn them at all. Alice also uses the Ignition Structure, but she rarely has the skills to use the Ignition Structure, so she is not very proficient in using the Ignition Structure.
The fire structure may seem simple and convenient, but it is actually a high-cost magic structure. The dominance cost of using the Flame Mechanism to create a flame is enough for Mel to fire 10 magic arrows. In the Academy of Magic, this magical structure is set to be studied in the eighth or ninth grade. Not only the fire structure, but also the other effect type magic structures can only be learned at the eighth grade or above, because the cost of this type of magic structure is too large, and the junior students simply do not have enough control power to use this magic structure.
The students had already used up a lot of dominance in the process of climbing the mountain, and with Shata still not allowing them to disconnect from the magic flares, everyone was visibly tired. Learning new magical structures at such times can be a great ordeal for the students.
Maier often uses Leiding magic after descending the mountain, and is still the heretical Leiding magic that is more efficient to use, so Myer's magic structure is more efficient than the magic structure of the average student, so his consumption is not as great as others. Coupled with the fact that he could already use the fiery structure, he didn't have to memorize Shata's magic structure at all, so he became the most relaxed person in the class.
The difference between the heretical Leiting mage and the so-called orthodox Leiding mage is mainly in the ideological aspect, compared to the difference in the use of Leitin's magic. Heretical Leting magic is more adapted to the rules of the New World, more efficient to use, and faster to cast, but stubborn orthodox Leting magicians still teach their students the old way.
Easy is easy, but the surface work still needs to be done. After all, Maier had already told Shata that he would only have a few infrastructures, and if he didn't show a serious attitude now, Shata would easily be suspicious of his words.
After about two hours, Shata finished the display of the firing structure. During this time, she seriously gave the students eight slowest construction demonstrations, and the rest of the time she put her fiery structure on display in front of the students, allowing them to analyze and memorize it on their own.
The number of classes in the Rytin's magic academy is extremely small, and one class a week is already a lot. The tutor will give most of the time to the students and let them practice on their own. If you have any problems while practicing, you can go to the instructor and ask, but it is another matter if the instructor does not answer.
As the tutor of the second class of the eighth grade, Sata is very responsible. When students came to her to ask questions, she never knew everything and never took the opportunity to suggest that students give her benefits. However, there was one student who made an exception.
At the end of Sata's teaching, a boy with pale red hair approached her and asked her very seriously about the structure of the fire. But Shata turned a blind eye to him, as if he didn't exist.
Because Shata gave detailed answers to the questions of several people before, her attitude towards this boy made Mel feel very strange. He saw that the blonde boy next to him had been covering his mouth and snickering, so he gently touched his arm with his elbow and stretched out his right hand to him.
"I'm Mel? Exter, the new transfer student, may I ask your name? β
The blonde boy was stunned for a moment after hearing Myer's words, and then immediately took Myer's hand and shook it up and down with a forced smile.
"I'm Bifur? Namix, who lives in Room 101 of Building 219, will call me Bifur in the future...... Also, we are classmates, so you don't have to use honorifics on me. β
The concept of classmates was very foreign to Maier, and he took it for granted to use honorifics for strangers. But judging by Beafol's performance, doing so in the second class of the eighth grade only makes people think that he is a weirdo.
"Sorry, get used to it." Maier smiled, "I live in Room 202 of Building 216, so call me Maier in the future." β
"You used the honorific very slippery just now, did you practice it deliberately?" Bifuer also smiled, "My father also asked me to practice this, but I didn't think this thing was useful, so I didn't practice much." β
"What our elders want us to learn, we will always use."
"That's the truth, but I'm lazy." Bifuel shrugged, "I have limited time, and it's already a hassle for me to learn magic, so I can't spare the energy to study anything else. Don't laugh at me when you say it, until now, I only know my own name, and I don't know any other foreign languages. β
"Ah...... This one...... You can't learn it slowly. β
"You look like you're an honest man."
Beafort affectionately arched Maier over his shoulders and raised his head at the boy who was asking Shata.
"Do you know why Mentor Elite ignored that guy?"
Maier shook his head genuinely, and Beamore gave a wicked laugh and said.
"That guy is my friend and a famous playboy in the academy named Stranzie? Offit, known as 'pervasive'. You know, it's the 'pervasive'. β
Bifuel squeezed his eyes at Maier, and he immediately understood which "hole" Bifuel was talking about.
"Around last month, Stranzie went out drinking with a couple of boys and talked about his experience chasing girls at the wine table. There was a boy who was not convinced, so he said to him, if you can really 'pervade', go and 'take down' the 'no ** girl' Elite tutor! It is estimated that Stranzie was also drunk, and immediately made a bet with these people, saying that he would 'take' Mentor Elite within three months. β
"And then this guy got into action. At first, he was sending flowers and writing poems - to be honest, I admired Stranzie, who was not only a wizard, but also a master of literature and art. The day before yesterday, Stranzy played the six-stringed piano downstairs in Tutor Elite's dormitory, talking and singing love songs, attracting a lot of girls to watch. Several of the girls confessed to Stranzie on the spot, but this guy ruthlessly rejected these confessions, and shouted that he had only Mentor Elite in his heart. β
"Actually, before this, Mentor Elite was quite optimistic about Stranzie, but after hearing that Stranzy wanted to 'take down' her, she ignored this guy anymore. How do you say that, if you don't die, you won't die, if this guy doesn't restrain a little, he will definitely repeat the grade in August next year. β
Before the cataclysm, the Leiding people generally held promotion exams and graduation exams at the end of the year, and gave students thirty days off after the exams. After the cataclysm, the Rytines' Academy of Magic changed to a promotion exam and a graduation exam in early August every year, but no students were given a holiday.
This is because the Leiding people have 400 days in a year, while the New World has only 360 days in a year. The teaching template of the Academy of Magic has been followed for nearly a thousand years, and it is not so easy to change. Even with the cancellation of the 30-day vacation for students, the teaching time is still 10 days shorter than before the cataclysm. Some students blamed the 10 days for their failure to pass the promotion and graduation exams, so these people were nicknamed the "Ten Days Party" by ordinary students. (To be continued.) )
