Chapter 13: Yang Xiaoyao's First Lesson
Defensive spells are one of the three major types of spells, and their importance is self-evident, and they are a spell that all legal professions must learn.
In the high school curriculum, the first learning is usually 'Fireball', 'Illumination', which is a very simple class-based spell, and the second learning is defensive spells. Each class has its own unique defensive spells, and the defensive effects are also different, but most high school freshmen still learn from general-purpose defensive spells.
The first thing Shen Mu looked for after getting the "Detailed Explanation of Priest's Primary Professional Magic Skills" was a general-purpose defensive spell. This is because although many of the defensive spells of the priest class are very effective, they are also relatively difficult to learn. Anyway, the activation condition of the 'Truth Word?Shield' only says that you want to release a defensive spell, and it doesn't say that it must be a defensive spell of an exclusive class. So why not learn a simple one first?
'Spell Shield', a defensive spell that doesn't even bother to have a name. The effect is also very mediocre, only absorbing 400SD of spell damage.
SD is a unit of measurement for spell damage, and a single fireball spell can deal 100 SD of spell damage. This means that the Spell Shield can only withstand 4 fireball shots, and it is not yet able to defend against physical damage.
All things considered, it should be said that this is a very low-level defensive spell. But don't let that make it a shame. Because it is currently the most widely circulated and most learned defensive spell, it is the first defensive spell learned by the vast majority of legal professionals. And it is said to be the first defensive spell to appear in recorded history. Definitely an existence at the level of an ancestor. More than 60% of the many types of defensive spells in later generations were researched and strengthened based on its magical principles.
Shen Mu had roughly read the principle analysis of the 'Spell Shield' and the mental fluctuation diagram in the study room, but he was not in a hurry to learn it now. His 'healing technique' is not yet fully proficient, and it is not a good thing to be in a hurry to learn new spells now. The road has to be walked step by step, and he still understands the truth that the meal must be eaten one bite at a time.
Close the book and get up to check the time, school is about to end. At this time of the day, he has to go to the store to work, but today he has to pick up Yang Xiaoyao from school first.
Middle school was half an hour later than high school, so when Shen Mu arrived at the school gate, there was still some time before school ended. However, it seems that something is wrong today, and I saw a lot of police officers along the way, and there were police officers standing guard at almost every intersection. There was even a large number of troops guarding the school gate, and all parents waiting to pick up their children from school were isolated outside. No one knew what was going on, and even the air smelled of nervousness.
"What's going on? Why is the law enforcement team of the Divine Sect Bureau here?" Shen Mu's heart jumped for no reason, and he had a bad premonition. Especially after seeing a few guys in black and gold trimmed cloaks, this feeling became even stronger.
The Shenzong Bureau is a unit dedicated to the management of professionals in the Longhua Empire, and its power is very large, and it is known as the three major violent organs of the empire together with the police and the army. However, the law enforcement team of the Divine Sect Bureau rarely dispatches, but generally as long as it is dispatched, it is a major event.
Just when Shen Mu was still puzzled, there was a commotion in front of the school. I saw a large group of people come out surrounded by someone, get into a military magic guide flying car, and gallop away under the escort of a large number of soldiers.
"It turns out that a big man is coming!" Shen Mu squinted his eyes and looked in the direction of the convoy, but the uneasiness in his heart did not subside because of this.
The guard was removed in a few minutes, and the parents of the students gathered outside were able to walk to the school gate to pick up their children from school, while curiously asking what was going on?
It's just that the results of inquiring are varied, and there are all kinds of things, but none of them are reliable.
But it doesn't matter. For the common people, these are just after-dinner chats, and they may be forgotten after tomorrow. They are more concerned about their children, how are they learning today? Have you been naughty and mischievous to make the teacher angry?
After picking up the children, the parents naturally dispersed, and the school gate that was crowded before became very empty in a blink of an eye. But strangely, Shen Mu waited in front of the school for almost twenty minutes, and waited until the students in the school were about to leave, and still didn't see Yang Xiaoyao.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, Shen Mu was a little anxious. couldn't help but find Yang Xiaoyao's class and met her homeroom teacher.
Shen Mu originally wanted to ask her where Yang Xiaoyao went, but as soon as her homeroom teacher saw Shen Mu, she squeaked and hid it, and couldn't say it clearly.
The bad feeling in Shen Mu's heart became stronger and stronger, and without saying a word, he directly pulled the head teacher to find the principal. The principal was also embarrassed when he saw Shen Mu, and finally hesitated for a long time to tell him the truth.
His hunch came true, Yang Xiaoyao really had an accident. But whether it's good or bad, it's hard to say.
It all started this morning......
It is said that after Shen Mu sent Yang Xiaoyao to school in the morning, Yang Xiaoyao looked very happy, and she always had a smile on her face. She is not timid at all in the face of her new classmates, although many people still feel annoyed when they see her.
Judging people by their appearance has always been human nature. Adults are a little better, they know some truths that they can't look at, and they also know that they will cover up hypocritically. But children don't, like is like, don't like is not like.
Yang Xiaoyao looks weird, and she is as thin as a bamboo pole, even if she wears new clothes, she can't hide her poverty. So no one in the class wants to be close to her, even if she takes the initiative to show goodwill, people are far away.
Yang Xiaoyao encountered this situation when she was in elementary school, she thought that she could start again after going to middle school, but she didn't expect the result to be like this, and the previous good mood gradually dissipated a lot.
But the process of starting a new school is almost the same, first it is useless to say a lot of nonsense, and then the class starts. The first is a history lesson, which deals with the general history of the mainland. The second section is the basics of magic, which talks about the principles of magic.
The first few classes are all basic knowledge, which is still a bit boring for new students. But when it came to the third period of the magic element class, it was different, and before the official class, the dozen or so people in the class were all in great spirits, and their eyes were bulging.
The magic element class is a course that teaches how to condense mana crystals, and it is also the most important course in the four years of the entire junior high school.
No matter which profession you choose, even if it is a non-combat class, it is inseparable from the support of mana crystals. It can also be said one-sidedly that how many mana crystals a person can condense almost determines the size of his achievements. So all the students listened very carefully in this class.
Yang Xiaoyao is the same, taking notes seriously, and focusing on making notes about what she doesn't understand, she is ready to go home and ask her eldest sister.
In this way, the first half of the class was normal, and it was not until the second half of the class that the problem occurred.
The element of magic is a very advanced science, it is not a purely theoretical lesson, and it must be combined with a lot of practice. The second half of the class is a practical class, which mainly teaches students how to correctly sense the presence of magical elements.
The so-called everything is difficult at the beginning. Learning to unleash the first magic skill is the most difficult, condensing the first mana crystal is also the most difficult, and sensing the first trace of magic element is the most difficult.
I think it took Wu Hao half a year to sense the magic elements, another two years to learn to gather the magic elements, and it took four full years to condense the first mana crystal.
Wu Hao is just a student with ordinary talent, and a situation like him represents the vast majority, which means that the vast majority of ordinary students only condense one or two mana crystals at most when they graduate from junior high school. It can be seen that how to learn to sense and condense magical elements is the key to Guan Jianzhong, and talented people naturally have great advantages.
The teacher who teaches the class is also very serious, and the people who listen carefully are also serious. Sitting cross-legged on the ground, he took a meditative posture and tried to sense the magical elements of heaven and earth for the first time.
Yang Xiaoyao sat in the middle of the last row, which was very similar to Shen Mu. The difference was that Shen Mu's self took the initiative to find it, while she was squeezed out.
Yang Xiaoyao didn't care about this, anyway, she had been used to this kind of exclusion over the years. Now she only thinks about condensing the mana crystal as soon as possible and sharing the pressure for her family earlier.
