Chapter Ninety-Seven: Ge Zhiqinxi
Bishop's Building, East 601. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
In the morning, the sun was still abundant.
The silver-gray curtains were open, and the tall floor-to-ceiling windows were also ajar, and the breeze was blowing, playfully burrowing into the classroom through the gap between the windows, teasing the students in class.
But at this moment, in the magic class of Astronomy 08-1, all the students are holding their breath and concentrating, as if they are facing a great enemy, letting the wind come and go outside the window, and no one cares about the fun.
The culprit was the gorilla standing in the middle of the classroom.
It was a very old male gorilla, with silvery-white hair on his back, a huge scar on his chest that crossed his chest, and his lips slightly furled, revealing dark yellow canine teeth that interlaced up and down.
At this moment, it was sitting in the center of the classroom with a shy round belly, one thick arm clubbed on the ground, the other arm scratching and itching casually, the bulging folded nose slowly undulated, and its dark brown eyes were submerged in the thick hair, as if it was asleep.
However, the young wizards standing in front of it did not think so.
Everyone remembered how the beast had broken free from the Downton spell cast by the squad leader a few minutes earlierβand it was no exaggeration to describe it as easy.
"Eight-hundred-pound gorillas, sit wherever you want. Xiao Xiao sighed, stood behind Zheng Qing, and muttered to a conclusion: "No scruples." β
"If it weren't for the professor's restriction method, I would have been able to play it in eighteen ways myself. Zheng Qing turned his head unconvinced, and argued in a low voice: "Moreover, Lao Yao is sitting behind it, do you think this beast can have no scruples?"
Xiao Xiao rolled his eyes, but there was no squeak.
"Xiao is speaking slang in the wizarding world. Jiang Yu was originally standing beside the two of them, and when he heard this argument, he hesitated for a moment, and whispered to Zheng Qing: "It means that this gorilla is very powerful - there is a silver-white gorilla-like demon in the A-level wanted warrant issued by the Wizarding Alliance, which has lived for a long time and has not been captured, this slang originally described it." β
Zheng Qing was speechless.
Xiao Xiao came from behind him, and a low muffled chuckle came.
"But I'm curious," Jiang Yu suddenly chuckled, "Can you put this gorilla in a way that looks like eighteen, I don't know what the specific means are?"
Zheng Qing's face turned even redder, and he said, "This is also a rhetorical device...... Figures of speech. β
Jiang Yu smiled slightly and did not continue to ask.
Church.
Seeing that no one stood up for a long time, Professor Yao shook his head silently and said slowly:
"Most of the spells you know now are some basic magic learned in middle school classrooms - like Downton's 'twigs', but plants that are derived from magical abilities. β
"The advantage is that it is easy to learn, and the spell formulas involved are very simple, and most wizards have no difficulty in casting them, as long as they have the talent of a wizard, they can cast them...... The downside is precisely here, this spell is too much of a wizard's ability. If you are a great wizard with high mana, if this spell continues, the gorilla in front of you will probably be ground into minced meat. If you are a young wizard who has just started to enlightenment, it is a miracle that you can summon a creeper after this spell. β
"As far as I know, most people can only summon a few dogtail grasses when they first encounter this spell. β
The freshmen in the hall burst into laughter.
The atmosphere in the classroom suddenly became slightly lively and less tense.
The silverback gorilla, who was squatting under the podium, snorted disdainfully and spewed up a cloud of dust.
It's just that this time there were no student gaffes.
Lao Yao nodded with satisfaction and continued to speak:
"As in the case just now, your spells are hard to use even against animals like gorillas, which aren't very powerful. So, what if you come across something more ferocious and powerful?"
There was a slight commotion in the classroom, but no one spoke, and everyone stared at the professor on the podium with wide eyes.
Zheng Qing had a thoughtful expression on his face.
Lao Yao's eyes swept over everyone's gradually condensed faces, raised his voice, and emphasized: "This is a concept that you want to learn through the Charms class - your ability is limited, how can you use your limited ability to summon more powerful power?"
"Today, I'm going to teach you a spell. β
"I hope that through this spell you will be able to understand this idea and have a deeper understanding of the spell. β
As he spoke, Lao Yao grabbed his pipe and slammed it on the blackboard a few times.
Two lines of words appeared on the blackboard: "Ge Zhi Qinxi, apply to ......"
"It's a powerful mantra. β
Lao Yao looked at the students below who were taking notes, and a happy expression appeared on his face:
"In this spell, the real name of a powerful demonic plant is used, 'Gege', and a powerful extended verb, 'Qin Tan', and the 'zhi' and 'xi' that connect these two words are false words that can contain the atmosphere of the ancient. β
"Ge refers to Ge Zu, which is a huge spiritual creature that is no longer examinable. Legend has it that its rattan spreads to all corners of the world, and its true body is coiled in the long river of time. Of course, many wizards think that this is an exaggeration in ancient books, but it is difficult for us ordinary wizards to verify the accuracy of this description. I won't continue the discussion here. β
"Although Gezu is strong, he is simple-minded and straightforward, and he likes the mana fluctuations of wizards very much. So eons ago, the great powers of the wizarding world signed an eternal pact with him, and ordinary wizards could summon their doppelgangers through spells to help bind their enemies. β
"The 'Qin' in this spell is the 'contract character' of the ancient contract, and the wizard touched Gezu through his real name and restrained his behavior through the contract word, and finally completed this spell. β
"With this spell, pay attention to the second half of the 'cast on ......'. This shows that the spell is semi-open. This is considered to be very rare among most spells, but it also gives the spell a much wider range of powers. β
The classroom was silent.
Even the fat man who talks a lot of nonsense on weekdays honestly grabs a quill pen and copies mantras and analyses on the law book.
This is the first formal mantra that these freshmen are exposed to when they enter college.
Everyone was trembling, lest they miss the slightest.
Lao Yao seemed to understand their nervousness very well, and it was not until the last classmate put down the brush in his hand that he spoke again:
"Now that you've memorized this mantra, it's time to practice it. β
He squinted his eyes as he looked at the restless young wizards in the hall, hesitating.
"This attitude is not positive enough......" The professor pondered for a moment and pointed to a little witch standing in the front row: "Li Meng, you can try it." β
Everyone in the hall breathed a sigh of relief.
Although I had just learned a spell that seemed to be very powerful, I didn't have any actual practice, and everyone was not sure in their hearts.
"Me?" Li Meng's eyes widened, pointing to his nose.
Lao Yao nodded affirmatively.
Li Meng timidly looked at the two-meter-tall Roshan under the podium, and couldn't help but glance back at Jiang Yu.
Jiang Yu raised her fist and made a cheering gesture, giving her an encouraging expression.
Zheng Qing also smiled on the side and made a 'college student' mouth shape.
The little witch's face collapsed, and she walked forward to the stage in a daze.
