Chapter Ninety-Six: The Dean's Thoughts

As far as the current situation is concerned, Lin Yang's attainments in the Sage Totem have reached a very high level, and the sketches of the first to third level are not a problem at all, and it will not be too much of a problem to make some subtle improvements. However, the completion of the three-level totem "Absolute Zero" is completely inspired by inspiration, and this kind of accidental event is almost like winning the lottery, which can be encountered but not sought, and cannot be replicated under normal circumstances.

Of course, no matter what, Lin Yang has also made some achievements, which is also the result of his hard work for half a year and insisting on coming to Daxue Mountain to study almost every other day.

Right now, Lin Yang was concentrating on studying a sketch in the hut, when he suddenly remembered a question and asked casually, "Master, what is the highest totem that humans have made so far?" ”

"Level seven." Cicero, who was resting on the side, said slowly.

"That means no one knows the power of the eighth and ninth level totems?" Lin Yang was taken aback.

"No, in fact, the eighth-level and ninth-level totems have also appeared, but they only exist in some ancient legends, the time is too long, and history has not been recorded at all, so there is no reference value." Cicero said: "At present, there are only three god totems with accurate records in history, namely God Huberta, God Krauss, and God Eisen, but they are only barely able to draw seventh-level totems, and they have never made a few seventh-level totems in their lives, let alone eighth-level and ninth-level totems. The most regrettable thing is that these three giants are no longer alive, which is a great loss to the entire totem world of the Faren Continent. ”

"It's so difficult to go up the seventh-level totem?" Lin Yang was slightly surprised.

"Level 1 to level 3 is a watershed, level 4 to level 6 is also a watershed, and level 7 and above is a moat. Even if the seventh-level totem is just a piece, the power is earth-shattering, comparable to the full sixth-level totem set. Cicero smiled: "There are only a few seventh-level totems in existence, which can be counted on both hands, and most of them have empty sketches, and no one has the strength to draw them." ”

"Can you give a few examples of seventh-level totems?"

"Don't talk about what is far away, just talk about what is near." Cicero smiled mysteriously: "You yourself have seen a seventh-level totem with your own eyes. ”

"What?" Lin Yang was very surprised, if he had seen a seventh-level totem, how could he be completely unimpressed?

Cicero laughed and said, "Far away and close at hand, it's easy to ignore what's under your eyes." The azure rose tattoo on your right leg, which is high up in the sky and has no one in your eyes, is a seventh-level totem called the rose emblem, which was tailor-made for her when the god Hugh Bernard was still alive. ”

"Uh......" Lin Yang didn't know what to say, in the Jackdaw Hall, when he saw Elizabeth for the first time, Lin Yang remembered very clearly, when she was sitting on the Iron Throne, condescending like a queen, the rose tattoo on her right leg was very eye-catching, I only thought it was an ornament, but I didn't expect that little rose to be a seventh-level totem!

"How much does the dean have a rose emblem print?" Lin Yang is very concerned about the price of totems.

"Fool, when you reach that level of totem, you can't measure it with money." Cicero sneered: "At that time, I didn't come to Jackdaw Castle to be a totem mentor, and according to the news released later, that woman exchanged an artifact for saying that he moved the god Hubernard. If converted according to the market price, it should exceed hundreds of millions of gold coins. ”

"Hundreds of millions of gold coins!" Lin Yang gasped.

What is the concept of putting hundreds of millions of gold coins in front of you? You can build a mountain, buy a small country, raise an army of a million people, or hire a hundred totem knights as bodyguards...... He can do almost anything, which shocked Lin Yang, right now he has an artifact in his hand, and a lot of treasures that are not much inferior to the artifact, should he consider selling the artifact in the future?

"Okay, that's all for chatting and farting, that level of totem is not something you can control, do things down-to-earth, step by step, don't be ambitious." Cicero got up from his chair and said with a smile: "From now on, it doesn't mean much to you to study sketches, I will officially teach you to draw totems with your own hands." ”

Lin Yang was overjoyed and cheered up.

……

As it turns out, copying a sketch is not the same thing as actually drawing.

Cicero taught a decent method, totem from the study of sketches, copying sketches, and finally to hand-drawing, this is an inevitable process, if from sketch study to copying is the first step of the baby, then from copying to hand-drawing, is to let the crying child learn how to speak, the difficulty is self-evident.

Of course, at the moment, there are no volunteers who are willing to lead by example, stripping naked and letting Lin Yang practice his pen and draw on others for free, so magic puppets have become an excellent substitute.

"Damn, failed again!"

On this day, the weather was extremely gloomy, Lin Yang hid in his apartment, with a magic puppet in front of him, with various magic paints, energy gathering materials, and a magic pen in his hand, he was concentrating on drawing magic patterns, and colorful magic patterns were slowly forming and connecting with each other on the puppet's chest, and he was about to draw a sage totem.

Although this totem is only one level.

And when the last stroke fell, the magic pen in Lin Yang's hand trembled slightly, and it was only a centimeter away from the predetermined line, almost invisible to the naked eye, it was such a small flaw, which led to the failure of a single stroke mistake, and the magic puppet also lost its magic power, and a puff of green smoke came out with a bang, and it was completely scrapped.

"Bang!"

Kicked the scrapped golem aside, and dozens of magic golems were already stacked in the corner, all of which were scrapped.

"Can't be impetuous, can't be discouraged, a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, freezing three feet is not a day's cold, I want to insist! I'm going to work hard! Talking to himself to cheer himself up, Lin Yang brought another intact magic puppet from behind him.

From the beginning of trying to draw, it has been three months now, Lin Yang has failed at the end every time, sometimes he is not in good shape, he will fail halfway through the painting, and he has not completed a work in the real sense in three months, but has scrapped hundreds of magic golems.

If you calculate the price of 10,000 gold coins for a magic puppet, plus all kinds of wasted magic pens, magic paints, gathering materials, and blessing magic powder...... Then he has already consumed millions of gold coins, which is simply burning money. Of course, it's all the college's money that is burned.

Therefore, there is a famous saying in the totem world that has been passed down for centuries:

Behind every successful totem master, there are hundreds or thousands of obsolete magic golems. And behind every powerful totem master who has become famous, there are hundreds of volunteers with open skin.

After a period of almost sleepless, non-eating and non-drinking, Lin Yang's roar finally broke out in the apartment: "First-level totem, the power of the bull, the first totem of my life, has finally become!" ”

The first to appreciate Lin Yang's work was naturally Lucy, and the two celebrated a lot in the apartment that day, drunk unconscious.

Then Lin Yang began to move towards a higher goal, and began to draw the second-level totem, to his surprise, the second-level totem compared to the first-level totem, its complexity is simply incomparable, and dozens of magic puppets in a row collapsed soon after the pen, and finally Lin Yang had no choice but to give up, and the second-level totem was not something he could touch now.

During this period, there is one thing that has to be mentioned, one day Lin Yang and Lucy were shopping in Icewind Valley, and they saw two big men scuffling together on the street because of a quarrel, and a certain big man released a skill to prevent the other party's fatal blow, this incident gave Lin Yang a great inspiration, and he had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and he actually left Lucy directly and returned to the academy quickly.

And then it's a long time of being closed.

Seven days later, Lin Yang opened the door of the apartment, and his whole person seemed to have lost weight, his clothes were ragged, unkempt, and his eyes were red, like a homeless man.

"How did you become like this?" Lucy was taken aback: "I saw that you have been closed for the past few days, and I thought that if you encountered something sad, I was almost worried about you!" ”

"I'm fine, I'm just working." Lin Yang smiled and brought a few drawings: "Take a look at my latest idea, I haven't been sleepless for it for the past few days, this design is enough to amaze everyone!" ”

Lucy took these sketches, looked left and right, and finally could only shake her head and smile bitterly: "I can't understand your totemist's things......"

Bang!

Lin Yang closed the door again.

"You go to die!" Lucy kicked the door, stomped her foot, and walked away angrily.

……

Two months later, Lin Yang opened the door of the apartment again, if he looked like a homeless man before, now he completely looked like a starving ghost. The eye sockets are deep-set, the skin is covered with bones, the temples have even grown gray hair before aging, the whole body has lost a circle, and the clothes are completely one size bigger...... In short, it cannot be overstated.

He walked out of the academy as soon as possible and went straight to the Great Snow Mountain.

After a while, Cicero followed Lin Yang to the apartment.

Looking at the magic puppet in front of him, Cicero's eyes widened in disbelief, and he circled around the magic puppet a few times, looking left and right, as if looking at a peerless treasure: "The power of the brute bull, the steel barrier, the will to fight, the three first-level totems have all been greatly changed, and they have been forcibly combined into a non-standard suit by you!" It's nothing short of a miracle! ”

A standard totem suit consists of at least five parts, namely arms, legs, and body, and in addition to their respective functions, there is at least one set ability. In addition, you can also draw more totems on the head, palms, soles of feet, and front and back of the body to form a more advanced suit, as long as the totem carrying capacity is sufficient.

The carrying capacity of each person is different, and the carrying capacity required for each totem is also different. Generally speaking, the bearing capacity of the first-level totem pieces is 10, and the bearing capacity of at least 50 is required to complete a first-class set.

The requirements of the totem knight are even more demanding, in addition to the knight himself having a totem suit, the mount must also press the suit to be called a knight. Generally speaking, the mount draws three totems on the cephalothorax and the left and right sides of the body to form a mount set. Therefore, a standard totem knight, with his own mount, a total of no less than eight totems, is considered qualified.

The effects of the various totems also vary greatly:

Piece Totem: It can increase the percentage of combat power and attach various functions.

Totem Set: Can cross at least one large class challenge. Equivalent to level 100.

Totem Knight: Powerful can even be challenged across two large classes. Equivalent to two hundred levels.

So what is the non-standard set?

In short, all modified parts of the totem are non-standard totems, and the totem sets made of non-standard totems are also non-standard sets. The benefits of non-standard suits are self-evident, after the modifications of geniuses, the power can be greatly improved, and the composition of the suit also has a variety of different amazing functions, such as the current Lin Yang, a set composed of five totems, and he used three overhauled non-standard totems to forcibly form a suit, which stimulates a suit ability.

Of course, there are also disadvantages to non-standard suits, which can be changed at will, and an obvious disadvantage is that the stability is not good, and there may be sudden failure on the battlefield, too short a time of use, and even crashes and other unexpected situations.

"This is a work that I once saw two people fighting on the street, and I was inspired to complete it." Lin Yang said with a smile: "I call it Divine Defense, a first-level non-standard suit, composed of three parts: body, arms, and back, in addition to the ability of the three first-level non-standard totems of the power of the brute bull, the steel barrier, and the will to fight, it can also trigger a set ability - Divine Defense, which can defend against a fatal blow to opponents of the same level, and the biggest advantage is that the manufacturing cost is cheap, economical and practical, and it has high strategic significance." ”

"What a divine defense, it's just perfect!" Cicero couldn't help but exclaim: "Those stubborn old things in the totem world, who said that the totem suit has to be composed of five parts?" Great changes and innovations in the totem world are coming! I see hope that in the near future, totem suits and totem knights will no longer be the exclusive assets of wealthy nobles, and cheap totem suits will enter thousands of households! Lin Yang, as long as you follow this path, the future will be limitless, and the next holy totem master is close at hand! ”

"I ......" Lin Yang was a little flattered.

"It's the result of your hard work, there's nothing to be humble about." Saying that, Cicero said with a little sadness: "You are the most proud disciple in my life, I have nothing to teach you, congratulations, now you have officially become an excellent totem master, and you can already become a teacher." ”

"Master......" Lin Yang's eyes were slightly moist.

"Manly man, what are you crying about, you are like a sissy!" Cicero patted Lin Yang's shoulder heavily: "After graduation, remember to come back to see me as an old man when I have time, and I will be satisfied." As for the...... It's better not to see her! ”

……

Paper can never contain fire, and this sentence is verified again.

The appearance of the divine defense is completely an outlier, at the beginning, everyone thought that Lin Yang was just a little more talented than Nunn, there are many people with high talent, and whether they can really make a difference is another matter, even if Cicero emphasized that Lin Yang made him amazing many times, not many people take this seriously. And now, no one expected that Lin Yang would give such a big surprise in less than a year.

At the same time, the advent of the non-standard suit also leaked out invisibly, and it was passed on to the hundreds, and finally caused a sensation in the entire college, and when the legendary dean heard the news, it seemed to have taken a dose of strengthening, Elizabeth was overjoyed, full of spring breeze, triumphant, wearing her delicate little slippers, tapping and tapping, walking among the elders of the academy, she suddenly stood on her toes, and laughed heartlessly from time to time: "After waiting for so many years, among the disciples under my hands, there will finally be a future saint totem master!" Aha......"

In addition, objectively speaking, there are many totem masters who can draw low-level totems, after all, as long as there are drawings, they are just drawing scoops based on gourds; However, there are not many totem masters who can make suits, and there are totem masters who can innovate totem sets...... It's even rarer. From this point of view, Lin Yang had surpassed most low-level totem masters.

That night, our legendary Dean went completely insane.

BeyoncΓ©, Hopkins, Douglas, and the well-known mentors in the academy were all invited, and even Cicero participated in the invitation for the first time, and the initiator of the banquet was of course Elizabeth, and the purpose of this banquet was only one, to celebrate Lin Yang.

Seeing that the table more than ten meters long was full of tutors, but there was not a single student, Lin Yang was completely dumbfounded.

Elizabeth sat in the first place, and smiled at Lin Yang, who was stunned at the end of the long table: "Good boy, sit down!" Today you are the protagonist, just let go of your hands and feet to eat and drink, we are all supporting characters! ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

During the banquet, everyone took turns to toast Lin Yang, even if Lin Yang thought that the amount of alcohol was okay, he couldn't stand so many people, and finally went to the toilet several times, and his fingers were stuck in his throat. The surprising thing was still to come, and when Lin Yang asked if this kind of thing happened from time to time, a strange mentor with a white beard longer than a hair and an unknown one gave him a thumbs up: "You are the first!" I've been in Jackdaw Castle for so many years, and I've never seen a single dean throw a party for students! This just shows how much the dean likes you, perform well in the future, and you will definitely have a bright future, and maybe you can be accepted as a male pet by the dean! ”

"Male pet ......" Lin Yang is going crazy.

He simply lowered his head and buried himself in a hard meal, but he was thinking about another thing in his heart: "Cicero has nothing to teach me anymore, I've been here for almost a year, it's time to think about leaving......"

……

The banquet lasted until late at night, leaving only Lin Yang and Elizabeth, sitting at both ends of the long table.

The table was already devastated and unsightly.

The dean's beautiful golden hair was scattered and slightly curled at the ends, and he didn't know how much wine he had drunk, and his pink and fair little face was flushed, and his expression was free, and he seemed to be a little drunk.

"Master?" Lin Yang asked a little uneasily, "Are you okay?" ”

"Me?" The legendary dean said with a big tongue, holding a bottle of aged cocktail in his hand, he took another sip, squinted at Lin Yang, and said with a smile: "Little guy, go out for a walk with me." ”

Before Lin Yang could react, the other party's finger flicked, and a pitch-black portal appeared in mid-air, directly sucking him in.

Coming out from the other end, Lin Yang thought that it was some kind of dangerous and inexplicable strange plane, and after seeing the surrounding scenery, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that he was still in the academy.

However, when he looked at his feet, he suddenly let out an exclamation!

In the plaza inside the main entrance of the academy stands a huge statue of Archmage Merlin, along with the iconic jackdaw on Merlin's shoulder.

And at this moment, Lin Yang was standing right on top of Merlin's head!

At this time, Elizabeth also stepped out of the magic gate, pulled Lin Yang to sit on top of Merlin's head, and looked up at the endless starry sky while drinking.

Lin Yang didn't know what to say, Elizabeth patronized and drank and looked at the stars, and the two were silent for a while.

After a few sips, the wine bottle quickly bottomed out, and he raised his head and poured the last drop of the elixir jade liquid into the cherry mouth, and the legendary dean frowned, and suddenly smashed the wine bottle down!

"Smack!"

There was a crisp sound, and the bottle split across Merlin's head.

"Merlin!" Elizabeth was even more drunk, and suddenly shouted hoarsely, "You old immortal! Why did you build Jackdaw Castle and not someone else? Now, no matter how hard I try, even if I reach unattainable heights among all the previous deans, I will not be able to surpass your merits after all! When others comment on who the first dean in the history of Jackdaw Castle is, they must think of you first, not me, you bastard! ”

The more she spoke, the more sad she became, and her voice was a little choked: "I have been exploring the depths of the astral boundary again and again, and outsiders think that I am keen on this, and even obsessed with this, they know a fart!" Merlin, I'm not here to find your tracks! But every time I am lost, the last few years of disappearance is also, I have gone far enough, almost to the edge of the astral boundary, and I still can't find any trace of you bastard, I want to find out your old ghost, fight for 300 rounds, and divide the winner! ”

After saying that, Elizabeth buried her face between her knees and couldn't help crying bitterly.

Lin Yang was completely shocked.

He never expected that Archmage Merlin, the first dean of Jackdaw Castle and the founder of the entire Icewind Dale and Jackdaw Castle, was almost a figure from prehistoric times, and he was still alive.

He didn't expect that the dean would have such a sad thing in his heart, and he would also have such an unknown side. At this moment, Elizabeth, who was drunk, lost her pride and dignity, and was completely like a weak and helpless girl.

"It turns out that no matter how strong a woman is, she is still a woman after all, and she also has a weak side of women." Lin Yang sighed secretly in his heart, and he didn't know what to do now, so he tentatively put his hand on the other party's shoulder.

As if she had woken up a little drunk, Elizabeth raised her head and asked, "Did I lose my temper just now?" ”

"Nope." Lin Yang naturally shook his head.

The legendary dean suddenly leaned his face over, and Lin Yang's heart was raised to his throat, **? **? Kiss? Or something else? A lot of undeserved thoughts instantly popped up in his heart, but he didn't expect her to just whisper softly in Lin Yang's ear, whispering: "Little guy, your future is limitless, promise me, if you go far enough in the future, help me find Merlin together, okay?" ”

Lin Yang nodded heavily, but there was some inexplicable loss in his heart, and the expected ** did not happen.

At this time, Elizabeth suddenly sneered, her eyes were bright, her eyebrows were picturesque, and her lips opened lightly: "I know what you are thinking, I will allow you to do anything for three seconds from now on......"

Before the words fell, Lin Yang instantly raised the other party's chin and kissed the beautiful lips like rose petals.

At night, ** beautiful.

On Lin Yang's left arm, the green dragon tattoo slowly became hot, and Salon's eager voice sounded in Lin Yang's heart, and at this moment, it seemed so shocking to cry ghosts and gods: "Hurry up!" This woman's strength is unfathomable, even I feel extremely frightened, you are so close to each other, I am easily discovered by her! ”
