Chapter 327: Peerless Talent
The autumn assessment in Attenborough is divided into two parts.
The first is the theoretical level test, which represents the future development potential of a magician, and Attenborough, as an academic school, attaches great importance to this.
The second is the actual spell casting ability, which is the ability to apply spells. This ability is very important if you want to be a good battle mage, and it is a matter of surviving on the battlefield.
Sun Ran and Zhao Shan are just elementary students who have just been enrolled for half a month, and the assessment requirements are very low. Let's not talk about the theory test, but the actual spell-casting ability test later, as long as you can successfully cast three spells, it's very easy.
It is said that those who are about to graduate will have to enter the whispering forest around Attenborough, survive in it for a month, and find the predetermined magic relics in order to pass the level. This is more difficult, and the place of investigation is the comprehensive ability of a magician. The annual elimination rate is around 50%. If you fail, you will have to wait another year.
Of course, this has nothing to do with Sun Ran and others for the time being.
A month passed in a blink of an eye, and Sun Ran also completed the magic thesis assigned by Eddie's teaching, which is an argument about the origin of magic.
This subject matter is too difficult and profound, and it should not be something that a beginner like him can master. Sun Ran spent a month revising it in his head, barely changing it to the level of a beginner, his writing was immature, and his ideas were so wild that they were a little unrealistic, which was very much in line with the nerd identity he had been showing now.
Zhao Shan also handed in an article, which was to discuss a small problem in the release of magic, this subject is very ordinary, but Zhao Shan wrote it very innovatively. And it's very down-to-earth, in line with her level of a once-in-500-year-old genius.
This paper is equivalent to a theoretical level test in the autumn assessment.
When Eddie received the paper, as usual, his face was meticulous, his eyes were numb, and he was completely coping with work.
"Alright, alright, little one, put the paper here, and then get out. I'll get back to you in three days. He waved his hand impatiently at Sun Ran and Zhao Shan.
The two turned to leave.
Eddie looked up. At first glance, it was Rosina, the genius of the academy. With a little interest, I picked up the paper and read it, and the title was: "On the Marginal Effect of Magic Unleashed"
"Huh?" Eddie's interest grows, and the magic is released. The part used to attack is only a small fraction of the mana. Most of it is completely wasted. For example, an air magic whirlwind. It's just a whirlwind, used to block enemy long-range attacks, but such a big whirlwind. Only a small part of what really works, and the vast majority is wasted.
Eddie looked all the way, his eyes became brighter and brighter, and he couldn't help but admire: "Tsk, it is worthy of being a peerless genius once in five hundred years." This is a brilliant idea, and even came up with a novel concept of elemental compensation, good, good, really good! This inspired me a lot! ”
After reading it, Eddie couldn't get enough of it, and read it several times, and couldn't wait to call Rosina over and discuss it directly face-to-face.
But he's teaching, and it's too gaffe to do that. Eddie did not hesitate to put a 'perfect' evaluation on Zhao Shan's paper.
I heard that the two little guys just now are still brother and sister, since the younger sister has such a level, then the brother should not be much worse, right? Eddie thought to himself.
He dug out Sun Ran's paper, and thought to himself: "But I heard that this Russell level is average, and he has only learned four zero-level magic until now, I'm afraid I'm going to be disappointed." ”
Thinking so, he opened Sun Ran's paper, and the title came into his eyes, just five words: 'On the origin of magic.' ’
As soon as he saw these five words, Eddie had the urge to tear the paper to shreds: 'This little guy really doesn't know who he thinks he is?' Great Magician? Legendary mage? At a young age, after learning magic for a month and a half, he dared to discuss the origin of magic! ’
However, he is a college teacher, and the greatest quality of teaching is that he must be patient, even if these little guys write a piece of Xiang, he has to read it, and then write a comment of 'this is a piece of Xiang', and he also has to say where this piece of Xiang stinks, how it stinks.
So Eddie watched patiently.
Half a minute later, he couldn't stand it anymore, and threw the paper aside, full of disdain: "Inventing magic symbols randomly, the narrative level is messy, like a child's graffiti." Difference! What a difference! It's not at the same level as his sister at all. They were all born in a mother's womb, how could they be so bad. ”
After calming down for a while, and forcing down the ridicule that kept popping up in his heart, Eddie took the paper and read it again, he was teaching, and he still had to read it after all.
This time I watched it for three minutes and read it roughly. After reading it carefully this time, he finally saw some taste, but he still disdainful: "It is completely contrary to the existing magic theory, if the origin of magic is really like this, this world will not collapse?" A little kid who is less than fourteen years old dares to stand on the opposite side of countless sages and legends, I really don't know if Lu Dao is courageous or stupid? ’
Eddie rubbed his eyebrows, ready to write the two evaluations of 'extremely poor' in the paper, he felt that he had to educate this Russell, let him know his own level, and not think nonsense.
But when he picked up the quill and was about to write down his evaluation, he suddenly realized that his pen was filled with ink, but he couldn't write a single word on the paper.
"Hey, what's going on?" Eddie wondered, checked his quill, and wrote on the other paper, and everything was fine. I returned to the pages of Russell's paper, but I still couldn't write a word.
Suddenly, Eddie saw a golden light suddenly appear in the void, and a large number of runes circulated in the golden light, which shone on the paper, and then the paper floated, and golden flames rose in the corners, and began to burn slowly until it turned into nothingness.
"It's... This... It's the power of the god-king Odin! Eddie's eyes widened, unable to believe all this, why would Odin show divine power? Why would you pay attention to this essay written by a beginner who has been in school for a month and a half? He couldn't understand it.
Odin is the god of magic and the god of faith in the Helmet Kingdom, and although the mages of Sky City have weak beliefs, they also believe in Odin and Odin's Asaph god system.
After a few minutes, the paper disappeared, and with it, Eddie felt his mind suddenly dazed, and when he came to his senses, he covered his head and thought, "I seem to have forgotten something...... Hmm~ I remembered, it was Russell's paper. ”
He rummaged through the table, and he really found the paper, looked at it, and found it unremarkable, with his evaluation written on it: 'ordinary'.
This was normal, and Eddie didn't take it to heart and continued to review the other students' papers.
Celestial Yard, Valhalla.
There were a few thin sheets of paper in the goddess Frigga in her hand, and she looked down and looked at it once, twice, three times, four times...... It wasn't until every detail of this paper came into mind that he sighed: "This person, he will one day be the first legend of the mage world." ”
As a mortal, Eddie's mind was full of prejudice, blindness, and stupidity, and he only saw the arrogance shown in this paper.
But Goddess Frigga is different, her priesthood is 'love and family guardian' and 'prophet', the latter gives her great insight, she sees the immaculate wisdom unfolded between these words, and a momentum that changes the world.
The idea of the owner of the paper is still very immature, even clumsy, but it is completely different.
In Friggya's opinion, the entire magic academy, from the past to the present, thousands of magic apprentices, everyone is a parasitic mistletoe on the existing magic tree, even those legendary mages.
But this Russell, although small as dust at this time, has great potential to grow into a new magical tree.
The two are superior and can be seen at a glance.
At this moment, the Asaph god system is slowly weakening, and the gods of Mount Olympos are aggressive, such a peerless talent has appeared, which can completely affect the rise and fall of a god system, and she must firmly grasp it in her hands.
'No, I can't control this, I have to go to Odin. Frigga got up and hurried towards the God-King Hall in Valhalla.
If Sun Ran knew that Lu Dao would be such a result, he would definitely not write such a paper. It's a pity that there are no ifs in the world, things have already happened. (To be continued......)
