Chapter 15 Assessment Results! (Two Chapters in One)
Roy walked around and looked around, and he was amazed by the majesty and magnificence of the academy building.
The little hillbilly who came out of this small town in the southern countryside sighed and was simply dazzled by the spacious hall in front of him, the glittering magical barrier and the exquisite sculptures on the beams and pillars.
It was the most majestic and beautiful place he had ever seen, and even the Mission Hall of Edding City was not a tenth of it.
The thought that he would study in this place in the future made Roy full of longing.
Put on a beautiful knight cadet uniform, walk in the shade of the academy road, think in the window seat of the silent library, swing a sword on the training ground, charge with a gun on the horse field, flirt with a noble girl......
This qiē is the dream of every six teenagers on the mainland, and it is also the longing of Roy and Tom day after day on the side of the Bollabel muddy training ground, in the backyard of the blacksmith shop full of miscellaneous items, on the haystack of the stable, in the warm sun and salty sea breeze.
Even though Roy has experienced a lot in the past year or so, and his plans for the future are far beyond the scope of the Knight Academy, when his former dream is within reach, his heartbeat still can't help but accelerate.
Because the number is 360, Roy is at the bottom of this batch of candidates.
When the other candidates followed behind the Bachelor of Affairs with bated breath and walked forward in a neat formation, he was at the end of the line, looking around curiously, and it was particularly obvious in the eyes of everyone on the second floor.
"Don't you know what nervousness is at all, this kid?" said old Tony, looking at Roy with interest, a smile tugging at the corners of his mouth.
I don't know why, he has a lot of affection for this kid. Although it is a bit irritating to fight on such a heavy occasion as admission day, as a friend of Nicole and others, many people can't do it without hesitation after seeing their friends being bullied, even regardless of Shiro's identity as a candidate.
A knight is not a sanctimonious hypocrisy.
Compared to that kind of person, this kid really has the same blood as a knight.
Moreover, this kid is also not bad, whether it is the kick that kicks Bruno or the punch that punches Quincy, the timing is just right, and the shot is clean. Especially the twelve arrows that shocked the two magic students at the end, it was simply amazing.
It's a pity that this kid's level of Dou Qi is a little worse, he is eighteen years old, and he has only just broken through the first order of Dou Qi for a week, and he still cultivates such a garbage technique as Truth Determination, in the Dou Qi test, it is almost impossible for him to beat the puppet into blue in three minutes.
This kind of vindictive test, since the founding of Grand Duke Solan, has continued to the present. Tony Sr. also experienced it when he was in school and knew him very well.
The puppets themselves are made of all-metal with the remnants of magic silver, and they are solid, each weighing thousands of kilograms, making it almost impossible to destroy. Unless you have a rank of 3rd Order Impartial Knight or higher, you can use four Battle Rings at the same time and use your weapon to perform an all-out attack.
The magic pattern on the puppet is the masterpiece of one of the most powerful law gods under the command of the Grand Duke a hundred years ago. These mysterious and intricate lines are activated by the guò magic core, and seven magic shields will be produced on the puppet.
When the candidates take the test, their attacks fall on the puppets, all of which are absorbed by the magic shield. When the attack strength exceeds the limit of the first shield, it is considered red. When the second shield is exceeded, it is judged to be yellow...... And so on.
However, after the first four shields have exceeded the endurance limit, a new energy shield will appear on the puppet's body, and at the same time, the dodge speed will increase. This is to increase the difficulty for the final orange and purple levels.
In addition to these six regular colors as a talent criterion, there is another criterion, which is a multicolor talent that is higher than the purple talent.
The so-called multi-color talent refers to the moment of attack, so that several magic shields reach the limit at the same time, so that the results of several colors in the hand are displayed at the same time.
If it's the red and yellow shields that reach the limit, it's a two-color talent.
If the three shields of red, yellow, and blue reach the limit at the same time, it is a tricolor talent. By analogy, if anyone can defeat six talent shields and one protection shield at the same time in a split second, then one white color will be added and seven talents will appear.
Of course, that's not possible.
Not to mention the seven colors, there is only one shield difference, and the difficulty of the three colors is ten times higher than that of the two colors. Historically, there have been only a handful of people who have attained the tricolor talent, and all of them are amazing geniuses. The level of achievement is high, and the paladin is only the starting point.
It is said that Augustus was the legendary tricolor knight, and at that time, he almost broke the green shield at the same time. And that year, he was only ten years old.
Of course, being young doesn't mean you're at a loss in the test. This is because when a puppet is attacked, in addition to judging the attacker's attack power, it will also determine the strength, proficiency, and courage value of its battle ring.
Courage is an exclusive characteristic of knights, and it is also the most important indicator of fighting skills.
Because the cultivation of Dou Qi is only generated in the knight's body. If it can't be released, no matter how powerful the fighting spirit is, it will only be a flood locked in the embankment and the door, and it will have no other effect than to enhance the knight's physique and strength.
And after the fighting spirit reaches the first level, the knight produces a battle ring.
The Battle Ring is the only way to release the fighting spirit. A battle ring is like a floodgate, and the fighting qi in the body is released, instantly producing an impact force far more powerful than the physical body.
The greater the number of gates, the more flood water will be released in an instant, and the greater the force. Even children understand this.
However, Warring doesn't just act as a floodgate.
It has a more important role, that is, to communicate the weather and the ground!
If we still use the flood to describe the fighting spirit, then the weather and the earth are the rivers outside the dam reservoir that contain a huge natural force.
In the absence of external interference, the energy of heaven and earth is stored in and around us, invisible and intangible, and operates according to its own laws.
And once this kind of power is communicated by the battle ring, then these rivers that were originally calm and flowing will be like being swept away by a flood that has broken the gates, generating even more terrifying power. Its attack power is even ten times and a hundred times that of the original!
In the vindictive test, these indicators of the battle ring are very important. The puppet will also adjust the test accordingly based on the detected battle rings.
The stronger the Ring, the higher the proficiency and Stamina, and the faster the shield reaches its limit.
If two candidates take the test at the same time, and one candidate attacks the puppet with a power of up to 3,000 strength, while the other candidate only has 2,000 strength, but his battle ring strength, proficiency and courage value are higher, then he will have a shorter time to pass the test than the previous candidate.
Because, it's a testament to his talent.
This is a test of talent, not a mere test of combat effectiveness.
This is also the reason why people who only break through the first order of Dou Qi after the age of eighteen, even if they have stronger attack power, it is difficult to beat the puppet blue, and some geniuses who are only eleven or twelve years old can reach the purple talent just after breaking through the first order.
Looking around at Roy, who didn't know anything about nervousness and worry, old Tony couldn't help but sigh.
In his opinion, Roy is already destined to be eliminated in this level.
In addition to Tony Sr., other supporters, senators, aristocratic patrons, and teachers also took note of Roy. However, unlike Marquis Tony, most of them don't have a very good opinion of Roy. Although Roy had just escaped because of Philip's appearance and Gustas's protection, it did not erase his bad behavior on admission day.
"This kid is a thorn!"
Such a perception has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
And after learning about his fighting strength, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief. I can't help him eliminate it quickly, so as not to have a headache.
Among them, Diarra and the teachings of those who followed him were the most. When he saw Roy, the gaze in Diarra's eyes was like a blade.
"Does this kid think he's here to visit the museum?" Farley crossed his arms and looked at Roy with a half-squint.
"I really don't know why the dean is maintaining this garbage. Another instructor standing next to Diarra said contemptuously: "If he can also enter the academy, it will be a shame for the first training camp!"
"I only broke through the first order at the age of eighteen, how could I have beaten the gatekeeper?" Farley laughed: "And this kid's cultivation is still reasonable. Can't beat it, be reasonable. Is he going to reason with the gatekeepers? I don't think a metal puppet would be interested in listening to him. ”
Farley's words drew a burst of laughter.
The crowd laughed as they turned their heads to look at Gustas and the faithful teachings around him, and found that except for Gustas, who looked as usual, the other teachers looked somewhat embarrassed.
It makes them even more happy.
But at this moment, several business bachelors rushed in. He brought the results of the second and third training camp entrance exams he had just gotten.
When he heard the report of the Bachelor of Affairs, the smiles froze on everyone's faces. The atmosphere of the entire second-floor platform was frozen in ice.
Everyone looked at each other, and they all felt that their hearts were constantly sinking.
They all knew that if the previous first training camp had overwhelmed the other two training camps because of the arrival of Kahn and Philip, then in just one or two prayer hours, the second and third training camps had dealt a severe blow to the first camp in this way.
Today is Admission Day, and no matter how great the glory is, it cannot compare to the importance of a genius to the Academy.
In front of the results of fourteen oranges and three purples in the second training camp, and eighteen oranges and two purples in the third training camp, the first training camp seemed so lonely.
In the deathly silence, Old Tony sighed and turned to look at Gustas.
He was surprised to find that what should have been the most lost old friend in this place was lying on the railing at the moment, quietly looking down.
And at the end of his gaze, it was not the five-star armed knight named Morey, nor the four-star armed knight named Pei Zhan, but the young man named Roy who was destined to be eliminated!
......" turns left and right in the hallway, and Roy is the last to enter the testing room.
As soon as he entered, he was attracted by the puppet in the center of the room.
As a child, Roy lived for a time in the gnome trap town. There is a large library in the city of Organs, which is full of books on various types of mechanics. His favorite thing to do every day is to go through the books in the library, sometimes see something he likes, and even tear the pages off and go to the waste heap or warehouse to find parts to do.
Although in the end, this muddy boy was listed as a target by the librarian, but it was that period of life experience that gave him a far more understanding of the magic weapons of this world than ordinary people.
When it comes to mechanics, the first race that comes to mind is the dwarf. But Roy knew that it wasn't the gnomes who really reached the pinnacle of the magic weapon manufacturing process, it was the humans!
Long before the invasion of the demons, the highly developed human civilization of magic combined magic and machinery, and created many magical weapons that are still memorable today. Especially when it comes to war weapons, the achievements of human beings far surpass those of other races.
In the hundred-year war between the human alliance and the demons, the magic weapons have repeatedly shined, appearing in several tragic battles, and inflicting heavy losses on the demons.
The terrifying steel machinery, the power of crushing at close range, the cavalry charging behind the magic weapon and the magician on the magic weapon, are the eternal nightmare of the demons.
However, because of the complexity of the process, the high cost, the difficulty of construction, and the long period, the magic weapon withdrew from the stage of the war in the later stage of the war when resources were scarce. With the death of the world's top magician in the final battle, this product, which represents the pinnacle of magical civilization, also declined.
Although the current human world is still using magic weapons, neither the level of magic nor the level of machinery can be compared with that of the past. The number is also pitiful, and it is rare for ordinary people to see it.
And the puppet in front of him, although it is not a war weapon, but it also has the rudiments of a magic weapon. For Roy, this is a rare novelty.
The puppet is two meters tall and has the true color of forged metal. The whole shape resembles a barbarian samurai. Its limbs are movable, and its body is engraved with extremely cumbersome magic patterns.
Upon closer inspection, Roy was disappointed to find that the puppet had no mechanical skills at all, except for a few small and crude joints. All of its actions are driven by the tracks and patterns on the ground and walls. Features are limited.
However, the magic pattern on the puppet's body quickly aroused his interest.
That's hundreds of dizzying lines. Ordinary Demon Pattern Masters don't want to sort out the relationship, even if they look at it a few more times, I'm afraid they will have a headache and nausea due to exhaustion.
However, in front of Roy, who has mastered the most essential life pattern of the magic pattern and has a pair of eyes that can see the elements, the more complex the magic pattern, the more interesting it will be for him to explore.
Soon, he understood the direction and change of the natural elements, and found that the elements formed a magic shield with six flashes of light after the combination of these lines.
And on closer inspection, Roy found that there was also a hidden magic shield on the running line of these six magic shields. Once the first four magic shields are cracked, the hidden magic shield will be activated, thus protecting the remaining two magic shields.
Don't think about it, Roy also knows that these six magic shields represent the six talent levels of "red, yellow, blue, green, orange and purple". And that hidden magic pattern was obviously to increase the difficulty of the last two levels.
"This is the energy aggregation line, this is the elemental line, this is also the elemental line, this is the magic transmission line......"
Roy circled around the puppet, fascinated.
His current magic level can only run a fourth-level magic shield, and when facing high-level knights, this low-level magic shield has little effect.
Moreover, because of the lack of magic power, although he had two defensive life patterns similar to magic shields in his hands, he could not complete the drawing.
Therefore, these magic shields on the puppet made him particularly interested. With his eyes, he could see that this kind of magic pattern came from the hand of a magic pattern master who was extremely deep in the study of magic patterns. The master's masterpiece naturally has to be studied carefully.
Just as he was watching with relish, he was suddenly interrupted by the voice of a bachelor of affairs.
"What are you doing?" the clerk looked at him, a look of disgust in his eyes.
Roy was stunned, and before he could answer, he heard the bachelor sneer: "What do you see, can you still see a flower?"
Roy's face sank suddenly. Half-squinted, he said, "I look at me, what's the matter with you? This is your crush?"
"Boom!" the whole hall exploded at once.
You know, although they are separate rooms, each room is separated by a transparent magical barrier. And in order to unify the command, it is not soundproof. It was just as the exam was about to start, and there was silence all around. The quarrel between Roy and the Bachelor of Affairs was all heard clearly.
The bachelor of affairs didn't expect this kid to be so tricky, and he was dizzy for a while. He pointed at Roy with his finger: "You six, you ...... you"
"You're too presumptuous!" In the next room, a candidate pointed at Roy and said in a righteous and awe-inspiring manner: "If you don't want to take the exam, get out, don't affect everyone!"
Roy turned his head to look.
Although the candidate's clothes are not gorgeous, they are obviously from a good family. What is especially noticeable is that he has already inspired the battle ring, and the light and rotation speed of the battle ring under his feet are much higher than those of other candidates, and he is actually a three-star armed knight.
Seeing that Roy and the Bachelor of Affairs turned their heads at the same time, it seemed that the expression on the candidate's face became more and more upright.
When he saw the approving look in the bachelor's eyes, the candidates next to him also joined in and made accusations.
If you don't want to take the test, get out!"
"What's the matter! I don't look in the mirror myself, I only broke through the first order at the age of eighteen, do you think I'm great?"
"Hmph, this kind of person is only worthy of playing prestige in the countryside where he has never seen the world. I don't know my place here. In terms of strength, who is not stronger than him here?"
For a moment, Roy was completely drowned out by the accusations.
You must know which of these students is not trembling and walking on thin ice here, for fear that the slightest mistake in them will ruin their future.
But Roy looked indifferent, not only did he fight in the academy, but he also escaped punishment because of the dean's protection and Philip's arrival.
If his strength is strong, I'm afraid everyone won't dare to say anything, but this kid is a trash who has just broken through the first order of fighting spirit and is determined by his cultivation truth.
At this moment, seeing him and the bachelor of affairs, what else is there to be polite. Even if currying favor with the Bachelor of Business is not good for your own assessment, it is not harmful. What's more, it's nothing to scold this kid to death, he is destined not to enter the academy anyway.
This hustle and bustle immediately alarmed everyone on the second floor.
Originally, everyone was depressed because of the news they had just gotten, and when they saw that it was Roy again, many people were angry and their faces were blue.
Shut up!" Diarra scolded angrily: "Still stunned about Feng, hurry up and start the exam." ”
As he spoke, he glanced at Gustas and said coldly: "If he wants to see it, let him watch it well, and after three minutes, he will fail the exam, and drive him out for me!"
The sound from above the magic barrier suddenly silenced the hall.
Those students who made accusations were secretly happy. Obviously, the scene just now has fallen into the eyes of the academy's higher-ups. And the higher-ups don't like this dark-haired guy either.
After receiving Diarra's instructions, the Bachelor of Business sneered at Roy, "Very good, if you can see that you can pass the test, you can just take care of it." ”
As he spoke, he turned his head and smiled at the cadre who had just accused Roy: "Everyone counts down to ten seconds." ”
Roy half-squinted and raised his head, although he couldn't see through the magic barrier above his head, he knew that the voice was the voice of the guy who wanted to drive him out of the academy. And in perception, there are more people looking at themselves.
"Want to drive me out?" Roy sneered at the corner of his mouth.
"Ten...... Sixty-nine ...... "heart...... The sound of the drama of the six bachelors echoed in the empty hall.
Roy inspires the Warring.
Seeing the faint battle ring on Roy's body, whether it was the bachelor of affairs, the candidate next to him, or Diarra on the second floor and the instructors around him, their faces were full of mocking smiles.
"Four ......" three ...... Two...... Let's go!"
With an order from the Bachelor of Affairs, the bell rang.
At this moment, Roy was like an arrow off the string, and with a "whoosh" sound, it shot to the puppet's side, and the battle ring flowed, and he had already quickly attacked four punches and three legs, and landed on the puppet.
"Although Lao Tzu is not good at fighting and fighting rings, but Lao Tzu understands magic patterns and can cheat!" Roy shouted, "Break!"
With Roy's angry shout, everyone only heard the puppet under Roy's fist, making a loud "boom", and immediately, the light flowing on the surface of the puppet dissipated into the void like colorful sand shaken by the wind.
Dissipate!
All the light dissipates at the same time!
A seven-colored light appeared on the magic array!
"It can't be!"
Diarra roared. The supporters and elders were dumbfounded. The instructors swooped down on the railing.
Tony Sr., Gustas and Kameni's minds went blank.
in the hall. Roy closes his fist.
He stood in front of the pitch-black puppet, raised his head, and raised his eyebrows slightly at the already completely dull gaze of the clerk next to him.
"Who told me to get out?"
At this moment, the world in the building, the time outside the building, is silent.
