Chapter 17 Test


Chapter 17 Test

In the college's grand banquet hall, Professor Morian was still telling the "inspirational story" about Brand passionately, with no intention of stopping.

Seeing this, Anna, who had been waiting for a long time, finally couldn't help but drag "Brand" to Professor Morian, preparing to interrupt her teacher's impromptu speech.

As Professor Morian’s apprentice, Anna knows very well what kind of character her teacher is.

A month ago, the teacher's understanding of Brand was only that he was a student he taught. At most, he knew that Brand was an excellent student.

As for Brand's usual behavior, he didn't pay attention at all!

So the facts are easy to infer that what Professor Morian is telling now is all made up by himself.

Anna felt very embarrassed for her teacher when she fabricated someone else's past in front of her.

Professor Morian found someone touching his shoulder and calling his name softly. He finally stopped his impromptu speech without finishing his speech.

Although he was very addicted to bragging about Brand's various deeds, the adoring eyes made him feel as if he had reached the top of a magical mountain.

But after talking for so long, my throat is already very dry, so now I just want to drink some water to moisten my throat.

While drinking tea, Professor Morian turned his head and looked back. After discovering that the person who interrupted his speech was his apprentice Anna, he felt a little happier.

"It's Anna! Is Brand here?"

While speaking, Professor Morian looked around.

Unfortunately, he failed to see the figure he imagined.

He didn't pay much attention to this, thinking that Brand might have something going on and it was inconvenient now.

Just take your friends over to find him later.

Looking back to Anna, she saw her little apprentice frowning and looking around with a puzzled expression.

Professor Morian couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong?"

Anna looked at her smooth palms, her tone was a little uncertain: "I obviously pulled Bran De, but why is he missing? ”

"What did you say?"

Professor Morian's expression became serious when he realized that Anna was not lying.

Did someone sneak away?

......

By the Moon Lake, Brand was forced to take an "examination" at this time.

Before, tables and chairs suddenly appeared in the open space by the lake.

Brand originally just wanted to get closer and study it.

However, as he approached cautiously, perhaps someone watching in secret was dissatisfied with Brand's grinding manner.

An irresistible force directly lifted Brand into the air, and then pressed him firmly on the chair.

Immediately afterwards, Brand looked confused as his right hand "automatically" picked up the "exam paper" on the table, and then his eyes "consciously" focused on it.

All I need is my brain to begin to understand the meaning of each word on the test paper.

The secret mentor’s intention was so obvious, of course Brand understood its meaning immediately.

——This is because I want him to complete this test paper!

Already here, Brand is also curious about what kind of "exam" they want him to take.

[Please follow the steps below to draw the runes and the base of the magic circle on the answer sheet. 】

Each step is explained in detail in the paragraphs below the question.

Which "pigment" should be used for which lines, what "powder" should be plated on which pattern, and what runes should be drawn in which circle.

When seeing these contents, Brand had a sense of déjà vu as if he had seen "drawing instructions".

“Is this how to draw the rune array?”

Because I don’t know the process of drawing the rune array, and I haven’t seen the specific appearance of the rune array.

Brand had no choice but to guess the purpose of the question based on his "shallow" knowledge and the instructions on the question stem.

After seeing all the steps under the question, Brand was surprised to find that he knew this question!

Throwing aside those weird "painting requirements", the runes inside only involve runes No. 1 to 3, so in theory, Brand can do it!

"If this is how to draw a rune circle, I think I can do it!" Since there is only one answer sheet, Brand is going to try it in the simulated world first, with paints and powders he has never seen before. Just replace it with something of similar nature.

Glancing at the hourglass in the corner, Brand began to "meditate."

......

Across the Moon Lake, the dean of the Imperial Mage Academy and a veiled purple-haired lady were watching Brand's every move on the other side of the lake.

They are the "masterminds" who took Brand out of the banquet hall.

When Brand started to look at the test questions, the dean seemed to have discovered something interesting, stroking his beard and jokingly said with a smile:

"Little Celine, just give him an answer sheet? I remember that when you first drew the rune circle, you failed many times!"

After hearing the dean's ridicule, Zi Zi Ms. Fa frowned slightly, and then responded:

“His mental power has just stepped on the threshold of a junior mage apprentice.

Even with the addition of the awakening potion, it is limited to multiple times in a short period of time. The effect of taking the medicine diminishes.

He only has one chance.”

After hearing the purple-haired lady's explanation, the dean imitated Brand's voice and continued reluctantly:

"That's right! I only have the mental power to reach the threshold of a junior mage apprentice. How could I encounter such a problem?" Such a bad tutor asked such a difficult test question?

Isn’t this making things difficult for me, Brand! Why don’t you wait until I am an intermediate mage apprentice or a senior mage apprentice to test me again?”

The dean's antics made the purple-haired lady angry, and she counterattacked:

"Old guy! It's not like those tutors under you are unruly and always sneak away! I didn't stop them in advance. What other opportunities are there?

Since when did recruiting a disciple depend not on ability but on connections? How many apprentices have I been robbed of over the years? "

"Cough! "

When the painful point was mentioned, the smile on the face of the dean of the college also faded a bit.

Then, he defended himself with some lack of confidence:

" Although there is indeed a reason for me to delegate power, it is also a matter of preference, right? ”

Seeing the unkind look on the purple-haired lady's face, the dean quickly changed the subject and said:

"Anyway, the difficulty of the test questions you gave Brand was a bit too high.

Even if In all my years of experience, I have never met a young man who can successfully draw a rune circle for the first time."

The dean's resignation made the purple-haired lady's complexion soften slightly.

After thinking for a moment, she explained:

"My lineage of rune formation studies requires extremely high talent for 'painting'.

Before learning the depth, knowledge is secondary.

Brand is The talent in drawing runes is the highest I have ever seen. He has a high chance of completing my test."

"What if he fails?"

Hearing this, the academy. The long face looked very confused.

You know, he brought Brand here according to her wishes despite the pressure from the instructors in the academy.

If she didn't accept Brand as her apprentice in the end, wouldn't his work have been in vain?

But I heard the purple-haired lady say calmly:

“That proves that Brand’s talent is just that, let’s talk about accepting him as a disciple for another time!

Of course, if he is willing, I am still willing to accept him as an apprentice. ”

Hearing this, the dean couldn't help but stroke his beard.

Immediately afterwards, he couldn't help but strike:

"Little Celine, you have not trained a rune magician who has passed the test for eight consecutive years.

If there are another two years, even if Rune Array is a difficult support subject, I will have to reluctantly reduce the share of resources allocated to you.

If you are just an ordinary apprentice and don't teach with all your heart, it will be difficult for me. I believe he can pass the test.”

After hearing the words of the dean, the purple-haired lady knew that this was indeed a problem.

But her tone remained firm:

"We'll talk about it then!"
