Chapter 124 New record: 19 days!
In the following time, there were no other "incidents" in Gothe's life in the academy.
The threat from Gerry Harrell seems to have gone unnoticed because he followed the "clam mining stream" rather than the "mining stream".
After all, the hand of the alchemy department cannot reach the potion department.
The departments of the Magic Arts Department are not easy to deal with.
Resources are limited. If one family takes too much, the other family will have to take less.
As major departments of the Magic Arts Department, the Alchemy Department and the Potion Department have always been in a competitive relationship.
The tutors and students in the two departments have never been in harmony.
Gerry Harrell's status as the chief student of the Alchemy Department is indeed of little use in the Potions Department.
Since Gerry Harrell did not bother him, Gothe was naturally happy to see what happened.
He didn't think too much about whether there would be someone big waiting for him later, and just focused on doing his own thing.
Building No. 30 in District 1, at the bottom of the Coolie Cliff and the restaurant, at three o'clock and one line, Gaode Machinery generally repeats the same thing:
Going into the water to collect clams - going ashore to restore mana. Restore body temperature - then go into the water to collect clams - eat - practice - sleep - go into the water to collect clams.
The minimum number of maid clams collected every day is 2, and the maximum is 5.
Although he has the assistance of [Detection Magic +], Gaode's physical fitness limits his area of action. He cannot and does not dare to go to the center of the river to collect clams.
The center of the river is the area with the highest density of maid clams.
There are indeed maid clams at the edge of the deep water area where he moves, but they are not many in number.
If it were not for the "self-bred radar", if it were someone else who just relied on their own exploration, they might not be able to collect even one clam in a day.
It’s no wonder that freshmen taking the “clam harvesting stream” take an average of more than three months to complete their tasks.
You must know that those who choose to "pick the clam flow", except Gao De, are extremely proficient in water properties.
Under this premise, it still takes so long, which shows the difficulty of "collecting clams".
And Gaode’s stable harvest is something that no one else can achieve.
Gao De was focused on nothing else and had no idea what kind of ripples his "results" had caused in the college over time.
What he is more concerned about is that his savings are dwindling rapidly.
The special dishes in the college restaurant change every day and are never repeated.
The average price is close to 10 silver coins per serving, which is very expensive.
However, the special dishes provided by the restaurant have extremely obvious effects in replenishing Qi and blood.
So Gaode, who has been collecting clams in the water during this period, did not treat himself badly. He ordered special dishes for dinner every day.
In this case, one Sean gold coin was only enough for his food expenses for two days.
This is the reason why his savings are dwindling rapidly - food.
……
Time passes day by day.
Dark Night Moon 12th.
The number of maid clams turned in by Gaode has reached 29, and half of the enrollment task has been completed.
It was also on this night that his guidance method made another small breakthrough, and his mana increased enough for him to cast 9 tricks in one go.
The deposit balance dropped to 217 gold and 16 silver.
Dark Night Moon 15th.
The number of maid clams turned in was 38.
Double happiness comes, Gaode's apprentice meditation technique, which has been stagnant for some time, also has a breakthrough on this day, successfully manifesting the 9th lotus petal.
In the past few days, news about Gaode has slowly spread, making the entire Seris Magic Academy abuzz:
It turns out that someone can get into school with the highest salary just by relying on a "recommendation letter".
You must know that the last person who entered the Sires Magic Academy with the highest treatment is now a fourth-ring mage and is regarded as the next chief mage of the Palace Mage Group.
So, whether they are civilian mages who came in through the admissions examination or the "second generation mages" who also came in through the back door, they are very resentful of Gaode's admission treatment.
The former, as a commoner at the bottom, hates the so-called "privilege";
The latter, as a "privileged" class, hates existences that are more "privileged" than themselves.
Perhaps this is Gerry Harrell's intention.
It was just his last resort to make things difficult for Gaode during the admission task.
The real conspiracy is to expose the admission method of Gaode, thereby provoking dissatisfaction and rejection of Gaode by most students in the college.
If you are truly a genius or have an extraordinary background, then others will only keep it in their hearts even if you enjoy this kind of privilege.
But you are a wild mage from the countryside, with no talent and no background, but you enjoy the highest treatment. That is, "morality is not matched", and you will naturally be targeted by others intentionally or unintentionally,
However, before everyone's dissatisfaction had fermented for a long time, new news about Gaode emerged again.
Gaode, who chose "Clam Collection" in the admission task, is advancing the progress of the admission task at a terrifying speed.
If Gold can maintain the current progress, it seems that the "25 days" record set by former dean Gavin Hogg will be broken.
Before this, the entire Seris Academy thought that Gothe was just a country bumpkin who had gotten lucky.
But with Gaode's amazing performance in the admissions task, his reputation has also changed a little.
Although the admission task does not represent anything, it does not provide any reference for a mage's future achievements. But no matter what, it is always particularly eye-catching that a record set by a former dean may be broken.
Some old students have begun to bet on whether Gaode can break the old dean's record.
Later, the bet even evolved into how many days it would take Gaode to set a new record.
The Potions Department is also very cooperative and updates the latest progress of the Gaode admission task in real time every day.
Gaode had never heard of the excitement in the college and the discussions about himself, and even if he knew about it, he wouldn't care.
Now he just wants to complete the enrollment task as soon as possible.
Dark Night Moon, 16th, the 13th day of the enrollment mission.
The number of maid clams turned in by Gaode exceeded 40.
On the 17th, I was very lucky and collected 6 maid clams in one day.
On the 18th, luck was conserved, and only 2 maid clams were collected today.
The 19th.
The 21st, the 18th day of the enrollment task.
The total number of maid clams handed over by Gaode has reached 57.
He is only 150 kilograms of water gold ore, or 3 maid clams, away from completing the enrollment task.
Dark Night Moon, 22nd.
As usual, Gaode dived into the river despite the cold after the sun rose high.
Having been collecting clams for nearly half a month, Gaode’s water quality improved very quickly.
Compared to the beginning, it is already completely different.
It’s just that his clam harvesting progress didn’t improve much.
Because the number of maid clams at the edge of the deep water area is limited, every one you pick is one less.
The further back you go, the harder it becomes to find a maid clam.
That is to say, with [Detection Magic+], a carpet search can be carried out, so that Gaode can maintain the steady advancement of his clam harvesting progress.
Gothe dived into the water again and wandered around in this familiar area at the bottom of the river.
The light representing the detection magic in his eyes flickered slightly.
The next moment, a magical light flickered from a corner of the river bottom, shining into Gothe's eyes.
With a thought in his heart, he kicked his feet and quickly approached the corner.
Then he reached out his hand and gently pushed aside the sedimented sand, and sure enough, he touched a clam shell.
Gaode calmed down the throbbing in his heart and swept away all the sand around the clam shell.
Then, he picked up the maid clam with both hands, kicked his legs violently, and floated to the surface of the river.
On the river beach, instructor Shahu has been waiting for Gaode to appear.
He is also aware of and concerned about the progress of Gaode's enrollment tasks.
"Why did it come out so quickly this time? Is there something gained?" Instructor Shahu was a little surprised when he saw Gaode's head sticking out of the river.
Having been following this group of new students for more than half a month, he knew that every time Gaode entered the water, he had to dive for more than three minutes before he emerged.
It has only been a minute or two since he dived.
Gaode didn't know Instructor Shahu's psychological activities.
He put the newly collected maid clams into the basket tied to the safety post, then untied the rope, put the basket on his back, and swam to the shore.
It’s really done. Seeing Gaode’s action, how could instructor Shahu not know what it meant.
Gaode quickly landed ashore, put the backpack aside, and put on his clothes.
“Many years have passed since Dean Gavin set this record. Everyone thought that no freshman would break this record.”
Instructor Shahu glanced at the three maid clams resting in Gaode's backpack, took a long breath, and sighed:
"It only took you 19 days to complete the enrollment task. , This is only one-third of the average time it takes for other freshmen to complete the enrollment tasks."
Gao De nodded sympathetically, "If we take the mining route, I don't think any freshmen can break this record in another hundred years. . ”
3000 kilograms of water gold ore, completed in 25 days, an average of 120 kilograms a day.
Unless there are new students who can reach the 1st level mage level when they enter school, it will be really difficult to break this record without the blessing of magic.
As for him.
The clam mining stream and the mining stream are not the same track.
So the Clam Mining Flow broke the record set by Dean Gavin Hogg’s Mining Flow, and Gaode was not complacent, and even thought that he had taken advantage.
But no matter what, the college recognizes this record.
That's enough!
