Mage Adam

Only the last ten days are left before the three-month period. James looks countlessly old. From the time he first saw the youngster, his hair became gray, which was exhausted. As a result, James relied on magic power to maintain his youthful appearance. At this moment, he has no such mood.

He slumped on the ground and waited for Adam to complete the construction of the last unproven Meditation Method. He was full of despair. So many years of research and so many years of hard work are about to end. To be over, he is just a person without innate talent after all. It is really just a luxury to advance to mage by virtue of pure spirit strength. What's more sad is that he has not even increased the total amount of spirit strength much.

"It's going to die, I will die silently like this." The experiment report in his hand was held tightly by him, and then it was shattered to pieces by the magic that accidentally escaped. James was desperate. think.

Adam’s spirit strength collapsed once again, blowing the debris on the ground apart. He shook his head at James and said, “It’s still not possible. It cannot be self-consistent. It is constructed by this Meditation Method. Mage's armor has no way to carry magic power."

James looked at him blankly and said: "Forget it, you don't have to come tomorrow, spirit strength solidification rune structure stability and complete rune group construction The experiment has failed, and the laboratory will be disbanded in ten days."

Every word of James is lighter than the last word, and the decadence in his words makes Adam frowned. He opened his mouth to speak, but before he could speak, James said again: "After ten days, if you want, you can come to receive your payment this month. If you don’t want to, I’ll just hit you. In the balance. Also, I am about to leave."

Adam temporarily put what he wanted to say back to his heart, and asked: "Go? Where to go?"

James smiled miserably: "Leave the mage continent, find an island, and leave one's offspring. Then...just so," James turned off all the optical projection instruments in the laboratory, and all experiments The report was destroyed, and he whispered in the dark: "Adam, don't study the Meditation Method in the future. You are different from me. There is no need to waste innate talent here. I am really jealous of you. What is the feeling of formal mage? "

Adam opened his mouth again. The darkness couldn't resist the apprentices' sight. James interrupted him directly: "Don't comfort me, at least compared to the ordinary person who attempts nothing and accomplish nothing, I It’s enough to appreciate the charm of magic. You go first, I want to be alone."

Adam walked out of the laboratory helplessly. In fact, he wanted to tell James that after two Over the past few months, he has been able to conclude a set of self-consistent Meditation Method with confidence, but it will take a few days to organize it, but James did not give him a chance to speak. But it’s nothing, ten days is enough, just sort it out earlier and lend it to James.

...

About three months have passed, and the atmosphere between the new apprentices has been different from the beginning. There are fights where there are people. This group of apprentices who claim to be Heaven's Chosen Child is even worse. In just three months, many apprentices have united and formed organizations with various eyebrows.

Most people have run out of energy stones. Everyone turned their attention to the task hall as they were learning. Then problems arose-the tasks suitable for them as rookies are very limited, and most of them It is cleaning, recording, service, etc. There are not many such tasks, at least there is no way to meet the needs of nearly a hundred people.

Up to now, everyone has mastered more than one kind of magic. Under the acquiescence of the Academy, conflicts are commonplace, and the official mages treat them as air. This acquiescence and indulgence are even more important. Let the more powerful and more talented apprentices become superficial.

The five people on the desert island are still united, and they can't help but not unite, because no other team is willing to accept them. Although their strengths are pretty good, William has successfully mastered the three Fire Element magics, and Ophelia has developed smoothly on the road of body refinement mage, but because the number of people is too small, it is still on the oppressed side.

At this moment, a conflict broke out in the task hall. The cause was a short-term job of sorting metals for senior alchemy apprentices. This job is paid for two units of energy stones, which is already very Rich, Randy wanted to take this task, but it was also discovered by a native apprentice at the same time. What's more unfortunate is that this person was the one who initially expressed disdain for the deserted island apprentice. Later everyone learned about his Name, Sean, the offspring of two mage apprentices.

"Why? Country folks also want to earn energy stones? Haha, do you know the metal?" Sean stepped out of the road in front of Randy and said arrogantly, seeming to find what he said was interesting , The companions behind Sean laughed for a moment.

"Get out of the way, Sean, do you want to taste a bit of pain?" Randy's face became gloomy. I don't know why this Sean kept biting him like a mad dog. There have been many similar insults. Time again.

Sean turned around and exaggerated and exclaimed, "Oh my God, listen to what he was talking about, he wants to teach me," then turned his head and said to Randy, "It's up to you? Countryside. People? Oh, yes yes yes, I forgot that you are still a genius with a soul tendency, what is it? Curse affinity? Hahaha! Want to curse me? I doubt you can't hurt the uncle Sean's hair !"

Randy clenched his fists, with blue veins bulging. Three months were enough for the apprentices to collect information. All apprentices who showed their soul tendencies during the aptitude test were remembered by everyone, only Randy This is an exception, because cursing affinity is too unpopular and useless. This made him a laughing stock and a reverse scale in his heart.

"Damn, you bastard!" Randy lost his mind and moved towards Sean with red eyes. Quentin, who was almost inseparable with him, hurriedly grabbed him. Fighting here is no good, senior The apprentices will not allow it.

Sean stood still watching them mockingly, squeezing them away from his companions behind him, and accepted the task.

Senior apprentices watched this scene lazily. It’s too common. It’s so common that they can’t arouse their interest. They also come from this stage. After experiencing the first cruelty, the rookies You will know how naive and stupid the current conflict is.

Randy stood in place like a wild beast, breathing heavily, and said in a lowly roar-like voice: "Bastard, dare to fight me?"

Quest The hall is quiet. Although conflicts have occurred from time to time, they have remained verbal so far. No one has conducted real duels. After seeing the formidable power of magic, they learned that apprentice duels are impossible. You punch me and kick me. In the same way, a slight accident means death.

Sean, who came to the door, turned around and looked at Randy in disbelief and said, "What did you say?"

Randy broke free from Quentin, step by step walked to In front of Sean, he looked at him almost face-to-face like a cockfight: "I said, duel, bastard."

Sean couldn't help taking a step back, panic surged in his heart, but in the next second he was just right. The reaction became irritated and fiercely said: "Okay, let's fight, you trash, since you want to die, Sean will do it for you!"

......

The first duel between new apprentices became the most popular topic among rookies within a few days. Adam knew nothing about it. He resumed his previous life in the dormitory and library. This news is still I learned from a small chat with Elliott that I saw Adam again a few months later, and he regretted what happened to James and the time Adam wasted.

"Speaking of which, are you from a desert island?" Elliott asked casually.

"en. ”The book Adam is currently reading is called "Discussion on Rune Stability". The explanation of rune in the book helped him construct the Meditation Method.

Acknowledged by Adam, Elliott came over very gossiping and said: "I heard that just today, the apprentice on the deserted island with cursed affinity is about to fight with people, you don’t want to go and see Is it?" The curse of affinity is useless, but it's a conspicuous label, and Elliott has no impression of Sean.

"Oh." Adam complied perfunctorily, and continued to read the book.

Elliott curl one's lip a little closer: "Didn’t he come from the same place as you? Don’t you want to check it out?"

Adam turns the book to the last page Then close it, put it back in the bookshelf and say: "I don't want to."

"Why? The first duel of rookies, haven't you seen it before? tsk tsk, think about it I really miss it. We came here in the same way." Elliott went into the memory mode off-line.

"I’m boring, I just came into contact with the most superficial force, I just put my mind on being brave and cruel, stupid. Besides, what’s so good about their duel, two people stood opposite to build a rune group. Is it?" Adam said as he turned to leave.

"Um..." Elliott imagined such a scene, and suddenly felt that it was not interesting, but he was really boring, and it is rare for Adam to be so willing when the number of apprentices is sparse. The person chatting with him said, "Let's go, go and see, aren't you going back to the dormitory? It just happened to be on the way, it won't delay you a lot of time."

Adam was helplessly held by Elliott. Fortunately, the rest of the threads continue to calculate day and night, and the daily threads do not delay the progress of the task, and there is no need to stir Elliott's interest, so the two walked out of the library moved towards the duel location.

Along the way, Elliott brags about his rookie record and repeats his glorious history of poisoning his opponents with poisons, and thus walked to the duel site.

Someone kept saying hello to Elliott along the way, and looked at Adam next to him with surprised eyes. I don't know how this'abandoned apprentice' got together with the pharmacy tutor.
