Chapter 100: Academy 4
These maids are all part-time wizard apprentices. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
In this luxurious dining room, an inconspicuous maid may be from a count's family, or even a princess of some small country. Wizards require a huge amount of resources and wealth, and most apprentices have to find a way to solve their needs on their own, even if they are provided by a family, only a part of it can be satisfied.
The large plate of velociraptor ribs is grilled golden brown and crispy!
Stephen couldn't help but squint his eyes in contentment, this was the best tasting food he had eaten since he came to this world, and it had the taste of a former halfling servant.
Delicate seasoning, flexible taste, fragrant and delicious.
He only tasted it and knew that the velociraptor ribs had gone through at least a dozen cooking processes, and immediately after eating it into his stomach, it was a warm current, as if some special spices were used, and the food itself had the effect of strengthening its own muscles and bones.
"Suddenly I want to study Magical Gastronomy!"
The high price meant good value for money, and Stephen's next two dishes didn't disappoint him.
It can be determined that some rare secret spices and sesame oils are basically used, and for many wizards, spices are magical items after being blended.
Zone A is the least crowded.
Most of the people who eat here are official wizards, and the price of the food does not use Kindler, and the food here is all paid for with magic stones.
At present, the exchange ratio between the magic stones and Jindler in the Five Ring Tower is 1:100, and the ratio of ordinary gold coins to Jindler is 3:1-5:1.
It's like a college city.
The huge industrial chain supplies everyone's needs, and Stephen can guess a little bit of the operation system of the Five Ring Tower just by going to the mission hall and looking at it, where there are huge potions plantation missions, large-scale hunting missions, and various recruitment commissions.
Wizards who have refined "Magical Gastronomy" here are very popular.
Basically, you can see the demand for recruitment every day, either private customization or open recruitment, and some apprentices will spend money to find someone to make special ingredients when they get them.
Overall.
The atmosphere of the Fifth Ring Tower is very spacious and comfortable, far better than the dark and cruel mire of death in the notes.
By the way, Stephen also looked at the application requirements for "Magical Gastronomy", but unfortunately this is a very difficult subject, it not only requires "Basic Botany", "Advanced Botany", "Basic Zoology", "Advanced Zoology", etc., but also requires "Advanced Cooking Skills" qualification, "Introduction to Potions" qualification, etc.
If you want to apply for the "Magical Gastronomy", you must prepare seven or eight examination certificates.
Of course.
If you're going to teach yourself Dark Cuisine, you don't need that.
The classrooms are located close to the garden area.
Nearby are rows of sculptures, all of which are busts of legendary wizards, and there is a daily class schedule on the sign at the entrance.
Today's lessons are Culture, Mathematics, Geography, and Plants.
The basic courses are on the first floor, and everyone can sit in for free, and above the second floor are the courses that require a fee, and they are basically taught by official wizards. Stephen picked a classroom and went in to audit a class, the lecture was a man in his thirties who looked like a noble butler, and his strength was a fourth-level apprentice, that is, a fourth-level spellcaster, and he talked about some very simple introductory knowledge, and he lost interest after listening to it for a while.
These teachers are also very casual in their teaching.
Their task is to tell the lesson, and whether or not they understand and learn is entirely the apprentice's own business, and they get paid to teach on time.
"Seems like I do. Is it time to take the exam?" said Stephen after a walk.
This batch of incoming apprentices has already started the exams.
Most of them were apprentices born into large aristocratic families, and they received an elite education from an early age, without any problems with basic cultural aspects.
Stephen brought a list.
"Hmm. If you get an A+ in a single exam, you can get a scholarship of 10 Kindler. ”
"If you pass five exams, you can get a scholarship of 50 Kindler. ”
"If you pass all the basic subjects, you can get 1 magic stone and 100 kindlers. ”
"If you get a B+ or higher in all basic subject exams, you can get 10 magic stones and 1,000 kindlers. ”
"If you get an A+ in all basic subject exams, you can get 100 magic stones and 10,000 kindlers. ”
The previous bonuses are relatively average.
The last one is quite a lot, you must know that twenty kindlers weigh one pound, and if you get all the A+s, the gold alone will weigh 500 pounds. 100 magic stones are also equivalent to 10,000 gold medals, which is a total of 1,000 pounds of gold as a scholarship.
"Wow! I'm going to make sure of this gold!" Stephen was unusually full of fighting spirit.
There are 12 basic disciplines in the Five Ring Towers.
They are culture, mathematics, geography, geometry, religion, astrology, botany, zoology, etc., in addition to many other subjects such as basic elements, different languages, introduction to monsters, etc.
Of course.
Not all apprentices can become scholars, so the academy also provides some hunting quests for them, and the canteen of the Fifth Ring Tower is the main publisher of hunting quests.
This is the path to training a battle wizard.
Normally, apprentices will choose whether to go the Academic Wizard route (Xueba) or the Combat Wizard route.
..................
Now that he has decided to dominate the exam of the Five Ring Tower, Stephen's next destination is, of course, the library, and he knows most of the knowledge in the academy, but there are some different places that need to be remastered.
The day passed quickly.
Stephen was a man who could tolerate loneliness, and spent the next week or so in the library almost entirely. The wizard apprentices who were in the same period as him basically started their own courses, and in addition to the free basic courses, they also signed up for some spell courses, such as "Spell Analysis", "Model Construction", "Meditation Body Forging Technique" and so on.
The open mode of education allows apprentices to choose their own direction exactly as they wish.
Soon.
A week passed.
When Stephen walked out of the library again, a small rumor suddenly spread throughout the academy.
There was a new apprentice who didn't know the height of the sky and the height of the sky, and he actually applied for 21 subjects in one go, including not only 12 basic subjects, but also 9 exams of his own choice.
Many people are laughing at this apprentice for not knowing the sky is high and the earth is thick!
Even, secretly, there was a senior wizard apprentice who opened a market and began to bet on how many exams this apprentice would be able to pass.
The number of apprentices in the Fifth Ring Tower is the largest, from the first level of apprentices to the fifth level of apprentices, many of them are stuck in the bottleneck and the progress is slow, some apprentices have been cultivating for a long time and still cannot become official wizards, and such people often return to their original continent later. The mysterious candidate who suddenly appeared this time was like throwing a bomb in this stagnant water, which instantly made many people excited.
You must know that there is a penalty for failing the exam!
Although the Fifth Ring Tower is an open education, the subject exams are all in charge of formal wizards, and without more than eighty or ninety percent certainty, no apprentice will easily apply for the assessment!
If you fail the course, you will die a miserable death.
