Chapter 153: The Great Desert
After talking to Professor Pondel in the evening, I learned that this was originally the imperial examination system produced by Professor Pondel, completely abandoning the traditional human invigilation and manual marking, removing all the deviations caused by factors such as personality preferences, and replacing it with the computing power of the intelligent core crystal ontology, according to the current national policy of the country as a reference answer, and immediately decide the candidates for the examination.
The same is true for the martial arts, but it is much more complicated than the liberal arts, and unlike the liberal arts that can be finished in three days, the martial arts take about twice as long, or even longer.
"In this way, the mainstream of this world is really force."
There are too many human countries on the continent, as well as alien races such as orcs and kobolds, and there will be frequent friction between countries, even the three major empires are no exception, so in the threat of external forces, martial arts will always be the mainstream of this world, and the number of people participating in martial arts is far more than that of liberal arts.
Of course, there are some exceptions this time, that is, the emergence of women, although most women also participate in martial arts, but due to the tradition of the kingdom, self-improvement women in addition to practicing martial arts, but also have a strong cultural foundation, so there is no shortage of women who participate in liberal arts or participate in two subjects at the same time, so the actual talent can be obtained is far more than in previous years.
However, Rod has no time to watch the Vuko game.
Before the start of the Vuko, Daphne, Marianne and Simone had already arrived in Anluo City, considering that there was only half a month before the professional assessment competition, in order to ensure that they had enough time to complete the task, they must now set off to the Northwest Desert and complete the task of subduing Lea within half a month.
Relying on the courage of the artist, Daphne rushed into the desert without fear; Marianne also followed.
Simone stomped her foot angrily, but had to catch up, she almost felt like a mother these days, and she needed to worry about everything. Marianne is also unexpectedly half a life common sense idiot.
Rhodes doesn't care, according to the results of the intelligence core's calculations, even if the four of them enter the desert unprepared, even if they face a sandstorm, there will definitely be no life problems.
But soon, the four of them discovered one thing, why Laia is obviously a small country, and the fact that it can still exist, because of the dryness and sultry heat of the desert, ordinary people can hardly imagine, and when they are in it, they will even have a feeling of staying in a steamer.
"Halala, why do people come to this remote town, now there is still a big desert, it's so annoying, the skin will not stand it, and the hot people really want to kill people."
Daphne rolled up her body weakly, barely supporting the parasol, the gothic outfit she usually loved was wrinkled, her face was red, the magic was boiling, and the steam was rising from the back of her head, like a salted fish floating in the sea, slowly floating in mid-air.
"Please don't say anything superfluous, that will waste too much energy."
Although Simone is protected by the power of the earth of the rock body, she can't protect her whole body, leaving a large drop of sweat on her forehead, she wanted to take a deep breath to relax her body, but the scorching air made her body temperature higher, not only did she not relax her body, but her cough made her physical strength flow faster, frowning and drinking a small sip of water, her body felt a little better.
"Hmph......." Marianne silently hid in Rhodes's shadow, only revealing half of her head, and the shadow creature that was not afraid of the sun turned into a fan, gently fanning Marianne with the wind.
Daphne immediately exploded, clenched the handle of the umbrella with her small fist, and gritted her teeth: "You mouthless woman must have been laughing at me just now!" ”
"Huh......!" Marianne silently turned her head and ignored Daphne, but the fan fanned even harder.
Daphne jerked up and shouted! "I can't stand it, Daphne wants to summon the cuties, Daphne will destroy all the creatures in the desert, and Daphne will turn this desert into the underworld."
Simone covered her head with a headache, picked up the water bag and stuffed it into Daphne's mouth, and Daphne subconsciously squirmed twice.
"Woo!"
Stimulated by the cool water and the scorching sun, Daphne let out a small animal-like cry, and her body was recoiled up by the coolness.
Simone sighed, looked at Rhodes, who was sweating, and rolled her eyes: "Rhodes, should we find a place to rest, and it really doesn't matter if we go directly into the desert, at least find a guide, I don't want to encounter a sandstorm." ”
Rhodes stopped, even if he had the power of the earth to protect his whole body, it was a little stuffy, Rod wiped his sweatless forehead: "That's right, we have walked for seven hours, thirty-two minutes and twenty-five seconds, and it is about to get dark, it is said that the temperature difference between day and night in the desert is very large, so it is time to rest." ”
Rhodes raised his left hand, the magic power gushed out quickly, the power of the earth boiled violently, the two met like a mixture of water and mud, first the sand turned into a flat ground, and then huge stones appeared out of thin air, placed on it in a staggered manner, but in ten seconds, a small house appeared out of thin air on the desert, with four beds inside, and a futon condensed by magic.
Daphne cheered and rushed into the house; Marianne also trotted in; Simone sighed deeply, she suddenly felt a little headache.
"Let's do this for today, let's stay here for the time being, but don't oversleep, there will be a meeting later."
Simone glanced at the two who were already lying on the bed, and swallowed back what she was about to say, at least let the two rest for a while.
"Huh...... Ahem! ”
Simone's frowning appearance made Rod smile unconsciously, and when he felt Simone's waiting gaze, he immediately stopped laughing, and took out three badge-like tokens with a strong face.
"You have these three tokens, this is outside the Kingdom of Sartre, there is no communication network coverage, our badge has completely expired, and we can't make calls, these are temporary replacements."
Simone took the badge, but her brows furrowed, with her familiarity with Rod, she keenly noticed that something was wrong with Rod, and couldn't help but glance at Rod.
"You don't think you're going to have any more bad ideas."
Rod laughed: "How come, you see, it's a little late now, we haven't eaten today, Daphne and Marianne also have to sleep for a while, so I'll go back to Anluo City to prepare dinner first, and I'll come back when you are rested, and then it's time to eat." ”
Without waiting for Simone to stop it, the blue light suddenly enveloped Rod, and a teleportation disappeared in front of Simone's eyes. When Simone reacted, she suddenly clenched her fists in anger.
“…… This cunning bastard minister! I'm going to learn teleportation too! ”
Even with Simone's temper, in this super hot desert, she couldn't help but scold angrily.
"Hmm...... I can't drink anymore. ”
"Drink it...... Desert...... The water will dry up. ”
Daphne and Marianne had fallen asleep at some point, and seemed to have the same dream.
"Let's hope it won't get old so soon."
Simone rubbed her temples in distress, she already understood why many mothers age so quickly, they must be tossed wrinkles.
"Why are they so uneasy one by one?"
