Chapter 198: One Year

If you can't bring a servant to serve you, and you don't have a family member who shushes the cold every day and takes care of you carefully, how long can a group of pampered children last?

A: Less than a day......

On the first day of reporting, most of them were busy making their beds, personal belongings, handing out uniforms, and asking their family members or servants to take away personal belongings that were not suitable to stay in the academy, or high-value belongings that were not useful for learning magic. In addition, the 726 students were walking around and familiar with the various parts of the college, so on the first day, this group of new children only felt the novelty of the shouting from outside.

Then came the morning luck of the next day, and nine of the ten newly registered children shook the little bell at the door with snorts and red eyes. The rest of them were either tired and paralyzed, or paralyzed, in short, they couldn't even walk to shake the bell.

For such a death rate, Lin can be said not to be surprised at all. Thinking back to the time when I was serving as a compulsory soldier on Ghost Island on Earth, the better the background and the higher the education, the less suitable the environment of the army is.

However, he also kept his original agreement and sent the abandoned children back to their respective homes, along with the CCC Kiel (300 gold) tuition fees. As for the clothes worn by the children and the mattresses they used, they can still be used after washing. Lost people are not so particular.

Of the ten children sent back, about six will remain silent, treating the memories of the academy as a nightmare. The remaining four will be pressed back to the academy by their parents and officially start their lives.

The children who were sent by their elders were also uncomfortable at first, especially the words of old John Goodman, who would cut knives in other people's hearts.

Incidentally, the children who used to come to the academy were all children who were abandoned without a magician willing to take them in. But time has passed, and such 'inspiring' words are no longer suitable for the academy, because some people are sent over on their own initiative.

But old John's Master Chief talent was like a surging flood. Lin just mentioned it to the old soldier, and the next day he had a new set of tricks. Even those children who think they are very resistant and have adapted to all kinds of cynicism clenched their teeth and sometimes secretly wept.

Of course, in addition to these children sent by the elders of the family, the operation of the Charlie Richard Fund also continues to send children from various remote places to teach themselves magic. These people also have a magical dream and want to get rid of their old lives, so they will show the same positivity as long as they have the example of their predecessors.

And the group of children who were not used to it at the beginning and were sent by their parents gave up several times, and were escorted by their parents several times, and they also realized that there was only one way to get out of this sea of suffering. That is to become a full-fledged magician and graduate from this academy. Although you will be forced to drop out of school if you stay up for five years, you have to live here for five years! They just want to kill themselves right away.

In the case of each having its own purpose and plan, all children are holding back their energy to learn. Even if there is a Sunday every seven days off, the children who live in Wulian City have a family member, and they go back a few times in the early days, and then stay in the academy unless necessary, studying on their own or with their peers.

Several times, Lin Du had a feeling that this group of children were all shaking m attributes, and they were abused and never tired of it.

It is precisely because of this enthusiasm that I don't know where it comes from, that the college has shown outstanding results, but one after another. Two months after the 726 students passed the first ring assessment, the 727 students who got the opportunity to study in Wulian City because of the fund also passed the first ring assessment.

In the second half of the 727th year of the Aramaic calendar, as long as it was the first semester of 727, that is, the children who joined in the first half of the year, they all passed the first ring of the assessment. There were even people who passed the magic apprentice assessment of the second ring in the second half of the year, which shocked the whole city of Wulian, of course, including several magicians who taught the class.

By the way, the number of faculty members in the academy has certainly increased. Now it is divided into two classes, elementary and advanced, so that children at different levels can be separated.

It took less than a year to pass the magic assessment of the second ring, what does it mean? Talent, a flexible mind, and unimaginable effort are all indispensable.

Especially for magic talents, to cast ten apprentice-level magic of the second ring in a row, the mana power energy required is unimaginable through the apprentices of the first ring, and it is not a simple difference of several times. And such an accumulation should be completed within a year, and it is not an exaggeration to call it a 'genius'.

Such a genius shines brightly in an academy that no one looks forward to. And from the beginning, it was just a place to gather people that no one wanted to take in. This made many magicians who had taken in a large number of apprentices and advertised that they would carefully screen the candidates for apprentices, and felt disgraced.

However, not only did these magicians dare not make a move, but even the forces that had been targeted under the table stopped their actions and watched quietly. There is no way, now the power of Gaybrash Tripwood cannot be underestimated.

By the end of 727, Orange Fruit Eaton Academy had twenty-seven ordinary apprentices, forty-six apprentices in the first ring, three apprentices in the second ring, five magicians who served as instructors - not including himself - and one great magician, with a small follower, but also a magician rank. With such strength, the unofficial organization in Wulian City is also a large-scale force that can be ranked first.

Some people sour and sour say that such forces must not be loyal enough to fight a tough battle. But the point is, no one dares to bet on this and provoke the people of the academy. If the bet is wrong, it is not enough for people to settle a wave.

In addition to the children's repeated breakthroughs in the year, the academy also came up with an attractive result. That's the calculator made by the great magician Juan Javier in collaboration with the magician Eli Huber. A physical machine, not a forum interface.

Inspired by the small card designed by the two P language creators to store the written records and the pocket watch. Juan and Eli, using minimal materials, made a basic calculator with ten numeric keys and five keys for addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and equal signs. Together with a horizontal bar digital screen, nine digits can be displayed.

It's just such a simple thing, and it's a big seller!

Of course, it's different from forums, which have to be popularized by almost everyone. Anyone who does business and does not take a calculator will be ridiculed by others for not being professional enough. If you don't take a calculator for the nobles, you will be suspected by the nobles of being too stupid, or if you want to do something unspeakable, such as taking out some of the nobleman's wallet to fill your personal pockets.

Although the structure of the calculator is not complicated, it carries several magic arrays with magic materials, and with a small magic stone of the red glory level, in addition to containing the main calculation program, it also bears the heavy responsibility of providing energy. However, because the power will be consumed is very small, it can theoretically be used without restrictions.

The structure is simple, and most of the masters who have touched it can be imitated. And the most critical magic stone program, to be honest, even if you can't write the p language, you can copy it. The Lost People don't have the concept of anti-copying and encryption, so as long as they have a calculator, they can make a second or third one by themselves.

But even so, no one dares to do such a blatant thing. After all, the person behind the calculator is a great magician, and he is also the high-ranking disciple of the president of the Leon District Council, which is the official organization that owns an airship. Infringing on his interests, will it blow up the chain of connections behind the great magician, this is where people are jealous.

It is precisely such an example of fame and fortune in front of him, and everyone's enthusiasm for learning P language is even higher. The people who came to listen to the lectures, the people who made up for the procedures, trampled on the turf of the academy again and again,

In addition, in the second half of 727, there was also a reason that made someone feel that they couldn't cry or laugh. That is, the magician came to the academy with his apprentice in order to receive magical enlightenment.

As we all know, the hardest part of magic is getting started. As long as you cross the gate of magic, although the road behind you is not smooth, it will not be dark.

And this master sent his apprentice for a very righteous reason, that is, as a martial arts faction, he does not reject accepting apprentices, but at least he must have the ability to protect himself. An apprentice who has not yet passed the first step of the assessment will only be a burden in his journey. So in order not to waste time, the master and apprentice went hand in hand, one was responsible for taking risks and making money, and the other was responsible for learning, and neither side was left behind.

Of course, according to the magician, the apprentice who had been sent in didn't seem to have any intention of staying at the academy until he graduated. That is, the most troublesome magical enlightenment education, which is carried out by the academy. After passing the first or second ring assessment, they will return to their respective teachers and contribute their strength.

Of course, Lin has no opinion on these calculations, and is even willing to lend Dongfeng to work with others. The focus of the college's long-term operation has never been how well it performs or how much money it makes, but how many people it has contacted and what kind of backers these people have. What kind of network was woven in the end.

In this way, the year 727 is also coming to an end. I remembered that a year ago, it was during this time that Orange Fruit Eaton College was established, a place that no one was optimistic about at that time.

It's only been a year, and the academy has become an organization that no one can easily ignore.

There may be some resistance in the process, but overall it is going in a good direction. But if you have to find some faults, that is, after coming to the academy, Lin Du has to pull a face, and he feels a little paralyzed for a long time.
