Chapter 2: Lucky Rubik's Cube
The Rubik's Cube is short for Magic Cube. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Its inventor is Biluk, so it is also called Biluk's Rubik's Cube.
In the earliest days, the Biruk Rubik's Cube was used to exercise Mengtong's mental power and measure the magical talent of beginners.
Twisting a magic cube requires mana, and completely restoring the six sides is said to strengthen mental power.
Later, the Rubik's Cube gradually became popular, and more ways to play were excavated, such as multi-level magic, prismatic Rubik's Cube, and magnetic Rubik's Cube...... The unique fun and diverse gameplay make the Rubik's Cube popular on the streets.
The highest difficulty of this gadget is said to be a super-level Rubik's Cube of a certain magic academy, which is composed of 10,0800 small blocks. Completely relying on magic to rotate, from the time it was developed, it can be completely restored, at least at the level of a great magician. And there are only a handful of them.
Ten years ago, the Rubik's Cube was simplified by merchants and no longer needed magic. And in order to make more people invest in it, each Rubik's Cube will have a gift when it is restored for the first time. Or a silver coin, or candy, or a small toy, the gifts are strange, and sometimes there will be some valuable gifts, so this kind of Rubik's Cube is also called the Lucky Rubik's Cube.
Unknown luck attracts people to rush to buy and enjoy it.
However, people's enthusiasm for the Rubik's Cube has decreased a lot.
And the Rubik's Cube in Du Kang's hand with a somewhat antique taste is a fourth-order lucky Rubik's Cube.
It seems that this Rubik's Cube has not been restored, which means that the gifts inside may not have been taken by anyone.
The level of the gift is also based on the rank of the Rubik's Cube, which Du Kang played a lot with in the slums when he was a child. Because there was a very large garbage dump there, it was the time when the Rubik's Cube was all the rage, and you could often see all kinds of Rubik's Cubes.
Third-order, fourth-order, magnetic, prismatic Rubik's Cube, etc......
The discarded Rubik's cubes in the junkyard were one of the few pleasures that Dukang and his orphans had.
What's going to be inside? Du Kang was reminded of a trace of that time, and he was a little eager to try.
Fourth-order magic is still six-sided, but the number of squares on each side has increased to sixteen, which is a bit more difficult than the third-order Rubik's Cube, but this is not difficult for Du Kang, who has solved the fifth-order Rubik's Cube when he was a child.
In order to reminisce about the fun of childhood, Du Kang's untangling process is deliberately slow.
"Click~" unconsciously, the first side of the Rubik's Cube is completely spliced. It turned out to be an icon of a six-pointed star.
In the past, this kind of icon often became the symbol of the magic cube, but Du Kang obviously has no magic power, and it is obvious that this is deliberately carved by the merchant in order to follow the trend.
"Lie ~ Lie ~ " The sound of the Rubik's Cube writhing constantly echoed in the small room, although the speed was not fast, but it was very rhythmic, and there was no pause in the middle.
This kind of fourth-order Rubik's Cube is indeed not difficult for Du Kang, and soon, the unlocking project will come to an end.
Now, with only the last few steps, this fourth-order Rubik's Cube will be completely restored, and if this is the first restoration, as Du Kang guessed, then this Rubik's Cube will crack open in some form, revealing what is hidden inside the Rubik's Cube.
So what exactly is this thing?
Thinking like this, with a snap, Du Kang completed the last step, and the Rubik's Cube was completely restored.
Each side of this lucky Rubik's cube is a six-pointed star icon, which looks a little mysterious against the backdrop of the Rubik's Cube's sense of age.
Du Kang put the Rubik's Cube on the table, quietly waiting for his luck.
Or it's blank.
After two seconds, there was a small cracking sound from inside the Rubik's Cube.
The six-pointed star cracked.
Du Kang was a little happy and expectant, it seemed that he had indeed guessed correctly, this was indeed an unopened lucky Rubik's cube.
What will happen?
..................
A long time ago, a master named Vanner Borg discovered that he possessed some kind of magical power, and he used this power to do many things that ordinary people could not do at that time, and Master Vanner Borg named this power magic. And delve into this power in depth, and systematically sort out the "Theory of Magic" and "Theory of Elements", two books that are recognized as "magic inheritance" by the wizarding world. From then on, more and more people with this power were inspired by Vanna Borg's book, and the glorious era of magical research began. Countless magical magic has been studied, and magicians are no longer just a few, and gradually began to spread throughout the continent.
In the thousands of years that followed, some powerful magicians, such as Thales Polo and Bona Dauphin, continued to perform feats that surpassed their predecessors, possessing the ability to move mountains and seas almost godlikely.
But the one who really applied magic to the whole world and benefited all mankind was a master Roddy Rosen, who was not known for his magic level.
About five hundred years ago, instead of studying how to make magic more powerful, and instead of indulging in the immensity of magic, this master applied some low-level magic to real life, especially civilian products!
For example, a magic freezer that can refrigerate and store perishable food, a magic windmill that uses wind magic to create an extremely convenient and affordable one, a magic ventilation mask that can breathe underwater, a drill bit made from magic rough stones, and a miniature magic circle engraved to drill ore......
Roddy Rosen used magic to bring infinite convenience to people and used these low-level magic to the extreme, and at the same time obtained great wealth, Roddy Rosen himself also had great fame. He was even crowned Prince of Glory by the empire of the time. In the history of magic, he is also known as the "master who changed the wizarding world", and is an "insurmountable mountain" for low-level magic application research in the wizarding world.
After years of development, magicians still maintain a certain sense of mystery because of their talents, but many low-level magic are well known to the world.
Therefore, when the Rubik's Cube in front of Du Kang changed after a few seconds, it bloomed like a flower in all directions, revealing something in the center, this process did not surprise him much.
But he was still surprised.
What surprised him was the result of the transformation.
After the transformation of this fourth-order Rubik's Cube was completed, the original fourth-order Rubik's Cube disappeared.
It became a sixth-order Rubik's Cube.
and a six-pointed star medal.
What is this?
Du Kang frowned, he didn't continue to waste time solving the sixth-order Rubik's Cube before he was sure if it was a prank, in fact, he couldn't solve it......
He chose to pick up the six-pointed medal first.
When his hand touched the badge, the badge fluttered a little, and then began to glow.
The six corners of the six-pointed star lit up one after another, and a pillar of light shot out from each place. Six pillars of light intertwined in the air, finally forming a ...... Person?
This light and shadow could not see men and women, and he faced Du Kang, like a little golden man.
The first words of this little golden man made Du Kang vigilant: "Congratulations, lucky man, congratulations on unlocking the jackpot of this magic decryption." ā
He had heard a lot of rumors about Rubik's Cube scams a long time ago.
There are some scammers who deliberately use the gimmick of the Lucky Rubik's Cube to deceive people and money, and more than ten years before the Lucky Rubik's Cube was popular, Du Kang would hear more than a dozen of them every day.
There will always be some ignorant people who will get carried away by the jackpot that falls from the sky, and then they will lose both money and money.
This is also one of the important reasons why the empire later banned merchants from issuing lucky cubes.
"This lucky cube is jointly organized by the Payne family and the Imperial Radiance Academy, and those who have this badge can get an admission quota to the Imperial Radiant Academy, regardless of age, regardless of gender, as long as they have this badge, they can enter the Radiant Academy. This lottery is valid for a long time, work hard, lucky ones. Welcome to the Radiant Academy of Magic. ā
Radiant Academy of Magic?Du Kang suddenly felt a little familiar. For a moment, I couldn't remember where I had heard it.
"The Payne family, Imperial Radiant Academy...... Haven't heard of it. What a shoddy scam. Du Kang thought mockingly, and then ashamed of his momentary thoughts.
How could a man who wanted to carry on Tom Sr.'s dream of selling magic lamps all over Finland City be deceived like this?
Thinking so, Du Kang threw the badge and the Rubik's Cube aside, and then left the matter behind.
At that moment, the magic wall clock on the wall rang.
