Chapter 0004 - Be Careful!
"Yo, how did you turn blonde?"
Martin from the General Affairs Office squinted his eyes with an interested expression, but he had small eyes, so how did he feel obscene when he looked at it like this.
"Don't mention this blonde hair, Mr. Martin, I've been talking about it for a day. ”
"I just think this blonde hair is familiar, it must be the golden lion fruit that can be so golden, right? This kind of fruit was very famous back then, and the magic of the change system will have side effects when used more or less, but the changes brought by the golden lion fruit have no side effects at all except that the effect will be prolonged after cutting. The change system spent a lot of time and money to study the reason why the golden lion fruit has no side effects, and once the entire empire of the golden lion fruit was picked out, and the golden lion fruit trees seen now are all varieties that have been improved by the natural system, which are both high-yield and have a short growth cycle. ”
"So, do you have any results from the final change system research?"
"There are results, but I'm afraid it's not what they want. After seeking help from the Alchemy Department, the Alchemy Department extracted an explosive ingredient from the Golden Lion Fruit, which added to ordinary gunpowder would increase the power of ordinary gunpowder by more than three times. So, well, at last they made a suggestion that the golden lion should not be consumed with gunpowder..."
"Who's going to eat gunpowder!"
"Hahaha... In fact, gunpowder is sweet. ”
“...... Not to mention, Mr. Martin, I'm here to get cleaning tools, but there's no one in the utility room downstairs. ”
"Oh, I'll go down now, and I won't have to be so early next time. Why are you looking at me like that? I'm just doing a part-time job!"
Luo Xiaotian pursed his lips, followed Martin to the utility room on the first floor, took a broom, mop and rag and walked to Building B, if you can clean it early, you can review today's homework in the evening, Luo Xiaotian asked the teacher before he knew that as long as the grades in each semester are within the top three, there is a scholarship, in addition, the name of the teacher in today's A Brief History of Magic class is Sean Theresa.
There are a total of ten classrooms on the entire second floor, except for class time, these classrooms are not open to students at other times, Luo Xiaotian took the key from the management room on the first floor, and cleaned them one by one.
An hour and a half later, Luo Xiaotian, who had completed all the work, returned to his dormitory and took out only half of the hard bread left to fill his stomach, at this rate, this bread could not last for the weekend salary. This is a problem that needs to be solved urgently... Do you want to find some more fruit to eat?
Regardless of these, Luo Xiaotian turned out the textbook, there are generally two classes a day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, and there is a break in the middle of each class, and today's two classes are a brief history of magic and mineral identification.
Magic is a magical thing, which can be traced back to 10,000 years ago, the owner of this continent is not a human being, all kinds of strange monsters and plants occupy almost all the land, and the sea is also occupied by the smallest plankton to the largest sea monster, layer by layer of food chain, human beings are not the top creatures.
Monsters unleash lightning, fireballs, and wind blades, can turn flat land into swamps, can change the gravity around them, and can become huge when in danger. Most terrifying of all are the dragons that dominate the skies, inheriting many powerful spells from their ancestors, and are like creatures at the top of the entire food chain.
Ten thousand years ago, the ancestors of mankind fought against these magical beasts, and they used various tools and wisdom to win victory after victory. After that, they discover the secrets of magic.
The body of the slain monster is covered with many strange patterns, after engrave these patterns on the body, some humans have also obtained the same ability as the monster, some people can only engrave one pattern, some people can engrave two, and a very small number of humans, but can engrave up to five patterns, these people have become the leaders of the entire tribe, and fight with more powerful and dangerous monsters.
Of course, patterns are not the real secret of magic, otherwise, the members of the dragon clan would all be flying lizards.
After reviewing this content, Luo Xiaotian did not continue to scroll back into the history, but instead opened the textbook of mineral identification.
Minerals, animal and plant materials are the material cornerstones of the entire wizarding world, whether it is drawing a magic circle or a mage casting spells, it requires the cooperation of various materials, so it is often seen that those magicians in robes are constantly pulling out all kinds of strange things from the wide robes.
"Hematite, cuprite, pyrite, quartz and moonstone. ”
Compared with the pictures of the five ores taught today, Luo Xiaotian carefully memorized their origins and characteristics. Ore cannot be replaced with purified substances, if a magic gesture requires hematite ore, and you use iron powder instead, regardless of whether the magic can be successful or not, the most likely is that the gesture does not correspond to the material and will explode. After knowing this common sense, Luo Xiaotian couldn't help but be in awe of those sages who invented magic, how many times were they blown up to make so many different magic appear in this world?
The bell rang at zero o'clock, Luo Xiaotian closed his book and lay on the bed, feeling the bed board made of hardwood, the first thing Luo Xiaotian decided to pay his salary was to make the mattress thicker.
......
Luo Xiaotian is doing something.
He found a piece of wire from the utility room and, after asking Martin's permission, took it back to the dormitory.
Luo Xiaotian wasted a lot of effort to bend the wire into a fish hook, especially the place where the fishing line was tied was simply mad for Luo Xiaotian, and in the end it could only be folded into a way that could be tied. I tested the hardness of the hook and there was absolutely no problem in catching a fish. Luo Xiaotian really can't make such a thing as a barbed hook, so he can only hope that the fish caught will cooperate with him.
The fishing line also came from the utility room, and he didn't find a line similar to the original world, so he had to reluctantly replace it with something that looked like twine, and for the sake of strength, Luo Xiaotian twisted two pieces of twine into one strand. He was still skeptical that the line would work.
I thought of going fishing, because Luo Xiaotian found traces of earthworms under the tree when he went to the garden to find fruits to eat yesterday. Today is the third day of school, and Luo Xiaotian sadly found that his piece of bread would not last until the end of the day, not to mention that he would not be able to last until the next day. Moreover, yesterday I found a pineapple-scented fruit that looks like an eggplant, and it doesn't turn your hair blonde and your hair reaches to your waist, it just makes you sleepy, and it's definitely a good medicine if you have insomnia.
At least the fish won't have so many strange effects, right?" Luo Xiaotian thought.
Ready for everything, Luo Xiaotian went to the lake next to the garden, he didn't prepare a fishing rod, but just tied a dead branch to the fishing line.
Hanging the loach dug out of the soil on the hook, Luo Xiaoangel threw the hook as far away as possible with all his strength, and then sat there quietly waiting for the fish to take the bait.
The breeze blows from the surface of the lake, waving some ripples that gradually spread, the dead branches float and sink in the ripples, the surrounding leaves make a rattling sound, and the sun shines through the gaps in the leaves, warm and wonderful.
"I'll rub!"
The dead branches floating on the surface of the water slammed down, and the fishing line in Luo Xiaotian's hand almost fell off. Judging by the strength of this fish, it must be a big fish.
Luo Xiaotian rolled the fishing line twice in his hand, stood up and put on a posture that was easy to exert force.
"No! How big is this fish?!"
When he exerted his strength again, Luo Xiaotian found that something was wrong, if this was a tug-of-war match, the balance of victory had slowly shifted to the other party.
Luo Xiaotian hurriedly grabbed the trunk of the tree at hand, lest he be dragged into the water, and he was a little reluctant to let go, because no matter how he thought about it, it was a big fish, enough for him to eat. The pepper, paprika, and salt are all ready, how can you give up here?
"Ahh
"Nina?!You're here at the right time, come and help me pull this fish up!"
"Fish?"
"That's right, the fish has been hooked, what a big one!"
“... Well, Mage's Hand!"
Nina made a strange gesture, and then saw a pair of translucent hands appear in the air, and they grabbed the thread tied to the fish hook in mid-air according to Nina's will, and dragged it up with Luo Xiaotian.
"Demon... Magic?"
It was the first time Luo Xiaotian had seen others use magic, or strictly speaking, it was the first time he had seen magic that could show effects.
"No, my fish?!"
I saw that there was a "big fish" hanging on the hook, which was completely different from the big fish in Luo Xiaotian's imagination. At this time, because it was out of the water, this "big fish" was struggling violently, but it could not use its strength.
"Why??Where did my big fish go?!"
"What a big fish? If it was a big fish, you would have been on the other side of the lake. You really lack common sense, whether it is lakes, rivers or marine creatures, they are not easy to mess with, and if you don't have a mage on the ocean, there are many boats that have been hit and sunk by fish. ”
“... I just want to eat two fish, do you want to do this?!Alas, or you will use the magic you just used to help me catch two more fish, and I will treat you to grilled fish today?"
After that, I went to dig earthworms in the soil again.
"Grilled fish? I haven't eaten it yet... Don't bother, look at me, mage's hand!"
The translucent hands reappeared, only this time they were larger, and the mage's hand quickly fished into the water, and several fish about the same size as the previous one fell to the grass and fluttered violently.
The fish that have left the water are not yet to be slaughtered, although the strength is still a little too great. Luo Xiaotian desperately held down one of the fish and knocked the fish unconscious with the back of the knife he had specially brought over. Then carefully lie down on the edge of the lake to clean the fish inside, because Nina tells him to be careful of the octopus in the lake.
After working for a long time, a few fish were strung with branches and placed next to the fire, Luo Xiaotian took out various spices and sprinkled them on the fish while stirring the fire.
"Nina, I want to learn the magic you just used. ”
