Volume 1 Lonely Arcane Path 043 Freshman Mission Season

Anthony's manuscript would be a valuable asset, but it would not be easy to gnaw it down.

The manuscript is full of some alchemical terms, and Charlie is often confused, and has to read basic alchemy books to strengthen the knowledge of alchemy in order to build the underlying knowledge model.

At the same time, because contemporary alchemy is at the service of magic, it inevitably involves a variety of magical knowledge: high-level natural magic is transmitted from the forest elf tribes and is written in the Kuvian language, universal spells such as wind, fire, water, and earth are inherited from the oldest language in the continent, Hudlos, and arcane magic is described by the gods of arcane in Stonehuls.

As a young man, Anthony was very energetic and ambitious, he studied several languages, so his notes were interspersed with many written notes written in other languages, and in order to understand them, Charlie had to take several language courses at the same time, but fortunately, most of the language classes were open classes in the Arcane Ring, and there was no need to pay points.

In this way, the pace of organizing notes slows down and slows down.

After Anthony was woken up by Charlie, he was not in a hurry, giving Charlie plenty of time to explore, and arranging some apprenticeship work to the other two apprentices, Erin was okay, Jerry was holding his breath in his heart.

As a result, time passed quietly in the trivial apprenticeship work and the endless coursework......

A month has passed.

The first round of the freshman points task season is coming, it is a unified activity organized by the college, which lasts for half a month, and every freshman must participate in it to consider the teaching achievements of the tutor and determine the points ranking of each freshman to maintain a fierce competitive atmosphere.

The night before the event, Anthony gathered the three apprentices together.

With a wave of his hand, Anthony scattered a little magic element in the air, converging into a strange pattern, "This time, the freshman mission is arranged in the Sogo Beach, which is one of the three apprentice areas of the Principality of Magic, and compared to other areas, the environment of these three places is the safest.

But you have to be careful, it's just relatively safe! There will be high-level magical beasts there, there will be the same Void Storm, and there will be apprentices who will die, but the probability is slightly lower.

The first mission season of the year is the event with the highest mortality rate for new students, you have to be mentally prepared, now that the academy enrollment season is over, I can't have any apprentices to replenish.

So, I really hope that all three of you can come back safely, and I won't ask you how many points you will earn. ”

Jerry's face turned pale, and he asked, "In that case, why do you want to participate? It's a big deal, don't score points, and next time our strength increases, it's not too late to participate in similar activities!"

Seeing Jerry's attitude, Anthony was quite displeased, and he said solemnly: "This is a coercive act, and abstaining means giving up apprenticeship, and the punishment is very severe."

Moreover, the academy's design of the mission is gradual, this time you miss the simplest experience, the next time you will encounter a more brutal test, the risk continues to accumulate, you can't avoid it.

This is the purpose of the academy, and the students who go out of the Arcane Ring must be able to take charge of themselves, otherwise how do you think the 15% elimination rate of the Arcane Ring every year came from?"

Charlie asked, "Teacher, what is the nature of the task, and how do we earn points?"

Anthony gestured to the image in the air: "The Sogo tidal flat is 12 kilometers in circumference, and the terrain is about the same, this side is a stormy ocean, a forbidden area, and it is absolutely not allowed to set foot in it.

A little further in is a long, curvy gravel beach, which is relatively safest because of its simplest environment and biological makeup, and plenty of food, with only a few low-intelligence fish-people, which I would identify as nuisance.

Further inside is a swampy wetland, shrouded in a layer of mist all year round, with a poor view, which is infested with giant crocodiles, poisonous snakes, swamp crawlers, and occasionally you may encounter swamp monsters, if you run into that big guy, you can only ask for more blessings, I will mark the swamp as dangerous.

The swamp continues to go deeper, it is a dense forest area, the environment is very complicated, and, there are higher-level magical beasts living in it, basically there is no need to consider stepping in, that area coincides with the trial ground of the star-level mage, you apprentices forget it, I will mark it as a forbidden area.

There are only two places to go to these four areas, and you can consider it at your discretion. ”

Charlie frowned, "Don't you have a detailed map?"

"The point system has local maps for sale, but I recommend that you don't buy them, because it is a wild environment, and the scope of personal involvement is small, so there is basically no reference value. ”

"And what is our main task?" asked Charlie alone.

"The main mission is to survive, and the Academy only allows you to bring one piece of personal equipment, and it is limited to legendary quality, and you are not allowed to carry any space equipment.

On top of that, each person comes with a standard apprentice package that contains seven days of food, two apprenticeship outfits, and a scroll of return, which has an inscription lock that is unlocked only on the last day, meaning that half the time you have to find food on your own, and the longer you spend in the Sogo Shoal, the more points you earn.

The optional task is to collect, there are many wild herbs growing in the Sogo tidal flats, and Warcraft can also be the object of collection, spar fur minions, etc., which can be exchanged for a lot of points. Anthony pointed out of thin air with his finger, marking a few points of light on the gravel beach, "These points are the official supply points of the academy, responsible for picking up the wounded, if you go out early, or give up automatically, then after the mission season is over, by settling points, eliminate the worst group." ”

There are quite a few rules, but it is these rules that ensure a relatively fair environment, but Charlie has a question, what is the relationship between these students participating in the survival mission?

"Also, I warn you again, don't think that you can sit back and relax on a gravel beach, because it's relatively safe, so the apprentices are most concentrated.

There is also competition between your apprentices, in addition to not allowing killing, the academy does not interfere with the competition between apprentices, settle points afterwards, and regardless of the origin of the exchange, if you stay on the gravel beach, you must always be vigilant, the same kind may become your opponent, let you out early!

Every year, some apprentices break out in revenge, and even kill people!"

Sure enough, as Charlie guessed, competition is the eternal theme.

Jerry grinned and said, "I have a way, as long as we don't collect anything, we won't be targeted by people on the beach, and no one else will be profitable anyway!"

This is a very negative coping strategy.

"Childish!naΓ―ve!!" Anthony sneered, "Aren't food and equipment resources?

Jerry was silent.

"So how do you distinguish between fair competition and malicious harm?"

Anthony explained: "As long as one party begs for mercy, it must not harm his personal safety, and if you once you have signaled for mercy, you can no longer keep anything other than the scroll of return, they will be the spoils of the victor, it is the agreed rule."

Anyone who violates the rules will be disciplined by the Academy's Inspection Department and judged according to the circumstances, up to and including public execution!"

The explanation is reasonable, but in the wild environment, especially in the case of life-threatening conditions, how can we ensure that the agreement can be faithfully implemented?!

Seeing Charlie's suspicious gaze, Anthony sighed slightly, "Rules are rules, there are always loopholes in rules, and people have people who don't believe in their words, and the academy can't do real-time monitoring, and it is impossible to ensure that everyone is treated fairly."

What can really protect yourself is your personal ability, as well as your partners, the three of you are out of the same class, and you need to help each other and get through the test together.

As for what really happened, what it tasted like, let's experience it for yourself!"

The three apprentices were silent, Erin had been listening silently, she was used to suffering in silence, and Jerry clearly had his own thoughts, and he did not change his mind because of Anthony's reprimand.

The three of them felt so rushed in the face of the Freshman Quest Season event, as a mentor, they had the greatest responsibility, which was a dereliction of duty on the part of Anthony, who had not prepared for the event for a month, and had not even told his apprentice, I am afraid that he had already had a negative attitude of giving up points.

The apprentices of other mentors are probably well prepared for this, and their own side is in a worrying situation.

Anthony took out three bags from the drawer and said, "Here are some of the healing potions and magic auxiliary potions I made, make good use of them! ”

Jerry quickly picked up a bag and pulled out the vials of the potion.

"The orange-red potion is a potion of life, which can be applied externally to treat wounds and restore physical strength when taken internally; the light blue potion is a magic recovery potion, the better the bottle, the better the recovery effect; the elixir in the gray bottle is an eagle-eye potion, which improves your eyesight and perceptual acuity, can detect invisible creatures to a certain extent, and is the most cost-effective potion in the wild......"

Anthony introduced it in one breath, there are really a lot of good things in this little potion pack, not only a lot of potions to restore the state, but also potions that enhance the magic effect, such as: Flame Grass Essence, which can make the fire spell have a super magic effect that increases the effectiveness of the spell.

It can be regarded as fulfilling the heart of being a mentor.

Seeing Jerry's ecstatic expression, he knew that these potions were also valuable things when they were put into the points system, especially at this stage, tonight, the points trading system was afraid that there would be a trading boom.

"Alright, you guys go and rest early! recharge your energy and get through the first hurdle of the Arcane Academy. ”

The three apprentices answered together.

When Anthony went out, Jerry couldn't help but say, "Hey, should we put some of these impractical potions on the trading system and sell them?" I know a friend who can help me sell them for a good price, so we can get a good piece of equipment!"

Charlie put away his package and smiled indifferently: "I won't sell it." ”

Jerry looked at Erin, who picked up his bag, shook his head and said, "I don't sell it either, I'll go to bed first." ”

Jerry's face turned ugly, and he snorted softly, not knowing what was muttering.
