Chapter XXXVIII

"My name is Grimm, and I'm a native of the imperial capital, what about you?" said the young man who was carried away by Ivan.

"Ivan, a native of Lenta in the northwestern province of Deya. ”

"Oh my God, you're actually from so far in the northwest, the province of Deya, it seems to be quite close to the border, Ivan, let me ask you, have you ever seen the Predator Legion, known as the first elite legion of the Empire?" Grimm exclaimed exaggeratedly when he heard Ivan's answer.

"Yes. ”

"My God of Light, Ivan, you are so lucky to meet the heroes of the Predator Legion, but it's a pity that the northwest is too far away from the imperial capital, otherwise. I'll be able to feast my eyes on that, too. Green exclaimed again, and then said sourly to Ivan.

Seeing that Green's eyes were full of envy, jealousy and hatred, Ivan silently withdrew the fact that he had also seen the commander of the Predator Legion, Haute Mahatma.

Along the way, Green said a lot, but Ivan got a lot of information from his words, although Green was also one of the freshmen recruited by the academy this time, but he came a few months earlier than Ivan, so he was more familiar with the academy.

For example, the Supreme Demon Academy, the branch management system, the Elemental College with the Department of Elemental Science, the Alchemy College of the Department of Alchemy, the School of Pharmacy of the Department of Pharmacy, and so on, there are hundreds of department colleges.

The Supreme Academy of Magic is made up of the various university faculties that provide students with their studies, as well as the Teaching Academy, the Elders' Academy, the Trading Academy, the Mission Academy, and most importantly, Tallinn.

Tallinn is the thousands of towering dark towers in the center of the academy, and it is the forbidden place of the academy's top priority, according to the information revealed by Green, each towering tower represents a tenth-order legendary archmage.

Whenever a mage is promoted to the rank of 10th Rank Legendary Archmage, he is eligible to build his own mage tower in the center of the academy.

Green told Ivan that he was a student of the Magic Array Department and asked Ivan what department he was in, and when he learned that Ivan was a student of the Alchemy Department, he exclaimed again with an extremely exaggerated expression: "Oh, poor Ivan, are you bewitched by some devil? Don't you know the horror of the alchemy department? I can tell you that in the academy, it is more terrible than the Necromancy Department, and the useless department than the Pharmacy Department is the Alchemy Department." ”

"Is that an exaggeration?" said Ivan.

"It's not an exaggeration, it's not an exaggeration at all, I'm talking lightly, did you know that there is a taboo data in the alchemy department?" Green seemed to be irritated by Ivan's disbelief, and waved his hands as if to enhance the convincing power of his words.

"What is the forbidden data?" asked Ivan, curious.

"I don't know, I see that you are my friend of Green, and I kindly tell you, it is said that one year, someone in the academy counted the situation of students in various departments, and I don't know if I don't know it, but I was shocked when I counted it.

Among the university departments of the college, the pharmacy department is in the best condition, with a survival rate of 91 percent, a mortality rate of 6 percent, and a disappearance rate of the other 3 percent. The worst condition is the alchemy department, which has a pitiful survival rate of only 28 percent, a mortality rate of 31 percent, and a final 41 percent of the insane rate.

As soon as this data was reported at that time, it caused a terrifying storm in the academy, and as a result, the alchemy department became the most unpleasant department, and you should be the only student to enter the alchemy department this year. ”

"Oh. ”

Green's eyes widened in disbelief and he said in surprise, "Don't you have anything else to say? ”

"Since I have chosen, what's the use of regretting, with that idle time, it is better to meditate more effectively. Ivan laughed.

Green reluctantly laughed a few times, since you are not happy yourself, then I have nothing to say, I just hope that I will not hear the news of you going crazy or dying in the alchemy department in the future.

"Okay, it's finally time to the cafeteria, this is the first floor of the cafeteria, all the food is free, if you want to eat better, you can go up to the second floor, I heard that the chef there is not only the first-class level of the empire, but even the ingredients are not ordinary, it can enhance our physique or meditate on the progress of magic runes, but the cost is frighteningly high, and a meal costs a magic stone. Green nibbled on the white bread as he said to Ivan, who was eating steak beside him.

Ivan smiled silently, and under the constant bombardment of chattering Green, Green also knew that the currency commonly used in the academy was not a gold coin, but a spar called a magic stone.

According to Green, the Magic Stone is a natural mineral that possesses a special energy that enhances the magic of the mage. However, most mages do not absorb the special energy in the magic stone, and only the magic power enhanced by their own meditation is the most stable. The magic power enhanced by absorbing magic stones is very unstable, and the difficulty of outlining magic runes will become more difficult, and in serious cases, it will even lead to the failure of magic rune outlining and the bad consequences of a large disappearance of magic power.

The second is that the magic stone not only has special energy, but also contains a lot of harmful impurities, and the consequences of absorbing these harmful impurities into the body can be imagined.

However, this does not mean that the magic stone has become very cheap, although the magic stone cannot produce any benefits to the mage's body, it also has two very valuable aspects, one is its hardness, its hardness is hundreds of times the hardness of iron, gold, copper, etc.

There is a very famous heavy armored cavalry team on the border today, this heavy armored cavalry team is called the magic stone heavy armor team, all the soldiers of this cavalry team are equipped with a set of heavy armor made of magic stones, because it is not afraid of physical imitation, and also has a very high resistance to demons, so it is still a nightmare in the hearts of the beast warriors.

The second valuable part of the magic stone is that it has extremely strong medicinal properties, five thousand years ago, there was a master of pharmacy named Leo, invented a potion, called the ink stone potion, the effect of this potion is to make a mage's magic power without side effects of extremely fast enhancement, and the main material of the potion is the magic stone.

The appearance of Tian Wei's ink stone potion has led to the fact that the value of magic stones is now heavier than the share of gold coins, and about ten gold coins can be exchanged for a magic stone.

After breakfast, Ivan said goodbye to Green, returned to the marble building, and hurried to the laboratory at the Kanonga Gate before ten o'clock, and knocked on the door.

"Is it Ivan? From the lab room came the slightly tired voice of Kanongamen.

Pushing open the door of the laboratory, a spicy and sweet mixed smell came to his nose, Ivan frowned, and closed the door of the laboratory with his hand.

"Teacher. Ivan saluted.
