Chapter 31 New Students (2nd Update)
(Tomorrow is Monday, and I'm shamefully asking for a ticket again...... ļ¼
The sun had just risen, and Leo had recovered from his meditation on time. Later, when he made a special inquiry, he learned that a girl named Bonnie had disappeared since then, and no one knew where she had gone, and no one dared to ask.
After receiving the supplies on time, he fed the few remaining storm wolves one by one, and as soon as he came out of the breeding room, he found that the old mage was already there, so he bowed down and greeted: "Good morning, master." ā
The old mage nodded, looking over, "Leo, what meditation method did you learn?"
"Are you going to teach me what I am aptitude?" Leo replied immediately, "It's the Soul Plane Meditation Method." ā
The old mage's eyes widened suddenly, "Where did you learn the Soul Plane Meditation Method?"
Seeing that the other party reacted so much, Leo thought that something was wrong, and hurriedly explained: "There is a copy of the "Beginner Meditation Guide" in the library......
Only then did the old mage remember that he had indeed obtained a copy of the "Beginner Meditation Guide" a while ago, but because it was useless, he casually threw it into the library. Unexpectedly, this little guy actually tried to learn on his own and succeeded.
The other party didn't move for a long time, Leo became more and more uneasy in his heart, and whispered: "Master, is there any problem?"
This kid can always bring surprises to himself, the old mage smashed it, and he was relieved, and said: "There is no problem, but the soul plane meditation method is a little difficult, to be exact, very difficult." So there aren't many people who study, and I can't give you any guidance, so you can only try to figure it out on your own. ā
"No, the book clearly says that there are many people who learn. Is it a marketing strategy to be used to get more people to learn?" Leo was surprised, but he didn't want to have a teacher, and he smeared himself, so he scratched his head and said, "Then can I learn other meditation methods from you again?"
The old mage originally meant the same thing, and after thinking for a moment, he replied, "Yes, but I still don't want you to do it." ā
"......" Leo has a feeling of being pitted, and he doesn't know what to say at all.
The old mage took the initiative to explain: "Although the Soul Plane Meditation Method is difficult, it will also have many benefits in the future, and since you can succeed, there is no need to change it." ā
Having said that, Leo couldn't rest assured, and hurriedly asked, "Then what will I do if I advance in the future?"
The old mage was amused, "You kid wants to get the long run, and I'll talk about it later." ā
"Okay. Leo reluctantly accepted it, looking at the old mage's appearance, he shouldn't be too fooling himself.
A few more questions were asked, most of them about Roland Minerhill, but Leo didn't really know much about them. Seeing that he couldn't ask anything more, the old mage took out a piece of paper from his bosom, handed it to Leo, and said, "You can try to do these questions." ā
After finishing speaking, he no longer cared about Leo, but studied a piece of glass ground into an oval shape on his own, and kept muttering: "Magnifying glass, what is the principle?"
It seems that this volume has been produced by the old mage a long time ago, and after a brief sweep, there are a total of fifty questions, which are basically algebra and geometry, and also include a small number of common sense problems.
Leo didn't dare to be careless, found a pen, and lay down in front of the real platform to answer.
The first few questions were quite basic, and he could answer them without much thought. But the old mage also put a lot of thought into this set of papers, and the later he went, the more difficult the problem became, obviously wanting to clearly investigate his current level.
An hour passed quickly, and most of the questions had been answered, Leo stared at an algebraic question in front of him, but hesitated: "Although the next question is not simple, if I answer it with all my might, I should still be able to answer it." But that might be too flamboyant, do you want to answer them all?"
At this time, the old mage suddenly muttered to himself: "Hey, the light seems to have changed?"
Leo was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted that the other party had already found out.
"Would you like to give him a hint?"
As soon as he had such a thought, the old mage had already laughed: "Sure enough, the light has been refracted! Hmm, in this way, the image reflected in my eyes has naturally changed, interesting!"
"Wouldn't it be that you figured out the principle so quickly?" Leo was disappointed. He originally thought that according to the way last time, he would indirectly reveal something to the other party and get some benefits by the way, but he didn't expect that the other party would solve the problem by himself.
On the other side, the old mage was still pondering, "Is light refracted? maybe a whole new magic can be developed, magic named after me!"
Listening to the old mage's babbling words, Leo's sense of superiority as a traverser was gone, "Although they ignore some things because of the existence of magic, there is still systematic theoretical support, and the development of this world cannot be underestimated." Let's keep it low, I still don't get it all right, sixty points is about the same. ā
Not long after, the bell rang at eight o'clock.
The three students entered the real yĆ n room on time and greeted the old master one by one. Montoya's face was beaming, while Owen's face was blue, it was obvious that yesterday's bet had been completed.
"Well, you three go over there and wait, I'll see how he answers. The old mage waved his hand and walked towards Leo.
The three students were stunned, what are the teachers and the servants doing?
According to Byron's guess, Montoya can answer about ten questions at most in this set of papers, Owen is almost twenty, and Claire may be able to answer thirty.
"Boy, if you can answer more than ten questions correctly and learn with them, there should be no problem. The old mage motioned for Leo to stop writing and took the paper.
"Ah, ten ways is enough?" Leo chuckled in his heart, he still overestimated the basic teaching level of this world.
The old mage looked at the first few questions, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Well, yes, your foundation is okay." ā
However, as he continued to look down, his face became quite exciting. The previous answers are very standard, and the later answers, although not standard answers, and the way is quite clumsy and simple, but the results are correct.
In the quiet room, only the old mage's heavy breathing remained.
After a few minutes, after reading the entire set of papers, the old mage was exclaimed, "Thirty-one answers correctly! Boy, is it really your father's teaching?"
At this time, what else could Leo say, he had to answer stubbornly: "That's indeed the case......"
The old mage looked incredulous, and then asked, "What did your father do?"
Fortunately, Leo was a little quick to think of a rhetoric. Try to make himself appear calmer, he said casually: "That's right, my father originally wanted to become a mage, studied for many years, but really didn't have any talent, and finally in order to make a living, he had to choose business, but according to his own words, the foundation is quite good." ā
"It's the past. The old mage nodded, and his expression returned to normal, but his heart was entangled again.
With this kid's current level, if he polishes it well, he still has a lot of hope if he wants to pass the joint entrance examination and enter the magic academy. But in that case, it is necessary to devote more energy to basic disciplines. And he originally hoped to teach Leo more alchemy knowledge, so that he could become a qualified assistant as soon as possible, and also play some auxiliary role in the important practical things he was about to unfold.
"What the hell should I do?" the old mage looked at Leo who was waiting quietly, and finally made a decision: "Forget it, let him learn first." If that thing can be completed before the next year's joint entrance examination, and he meets the conditions for reference, let him go. If you can't, you still have to focus on that thing. ā
Thinking of this, Byron casually put the scroll on the real platform and said, "Leo, you also go and get a chair, and then take a notebook, and listen to the lecture with them." ā
"Yes, Master. Leo quickly found a chair and sat down behind the three of them.
The first to react was Owen. The thoughtful boy had already seen that Leo seemed to have received some kind of approval from the teacher, and he couldn't bear it at the moment, and said, "Teacher, are you asking this servant to study with us?"
"Well, Leo has a good talent, and from today onwards, I will learn with you. The old mage replied.
Owen felt bad, sorted out his words, and said, "But after all, he is a lowly servant, how can he ......?"
Montoya laughed and retorted, "What's wrong with the servant? Owen, your ancestors are still slaves!"
"Damn, who do you say is a slave!" Owen glared angrily, he had been so cool since yesterday that he was about to explode.
Hearing the students arguing, the old mage coughed heavily and scolded: "Shut up, is it you or me?"
The two boys suddenly did not dare to speak again.
Owen glanced at Leo hatefully, he didn't want any changes to happen to him when he was about to get a letter of recommendation.
And Montoya squeezed Leo's eyes kindly, and said with a lip sync: "We are classmates." As for Claire, apart from a curious glance at Leo, it was as if nothing had happened.
Soon, the students were seated and the class officially began.
The old mage had obviously prepared what he was going to talk about today, and said slowly: "It's really a bit early for you to start getting in touch with the concept of coordinates at present, but almost all teleportation magic requires accurate and fast coordinate calculation ability, so it's still necessary for you to start some basic learning now." Today, I will tell you about the theory of two-dimensional coordinate systems. ā
