Chapter 116: Tricky (Part 1)
Chapter 116: Take Skills (Part 1)
Looking at Bosingwa, Ge Zheng seemed to see the love tragedy of a poor boy, a noble lady, who was secretly heartbroken and lost the interest of teaching the two students a lesson. He simply said: "You can barely pass the test. I said you are just a small progress and you are not convinced. In fact, there are other simpler solutions to this proposition."
"The first type, there are also many rare materials among the materials I give you. With the level of an eighth-level alchemist, as long as you have top-level materials, you can also refine a shield that resists level ten magic. I'm right." Because of my mood, Ge Zheng's tone was very light, but in Bosingwa's ears, it was like Huang Zhong Dalu, and he felt enlightened.
"The second type, as long as there is a defensive magic array above level ten, the eighth level item can resist the tenth level magic. Although you cannot carve a more than level ten magic array, there are several such magic scrolls in the storage ring that I have given you." He said, taking out several scrolls from the storage ring.
Bosingwa and Perlin were stunned. Ge Zheng took back his storage ring: "I just want you to understand that this is the skill of the competition." He took out a piece of paper: "This is part of the topic of the previous three student exchange competitions, please take a look. Then tell me your solution."
The two heads leaned over, and a trace of elegant fragrance penetrated Bosingwa's nostrils, stirring the boy's mind, and his soul was lost for a moment.
"Cough cough!" Ge Zheng coughed suddenly, and Bosingwa came to his senses and focused on the papyrus.
He copied more than a dozen questions in timeless font on a piece of paper. The first question was: Heat the magic crystal to a molten state. The player who took a short time won the victory.
There are answers attached below each question, of course there is no standard answer, but the answers given by each contestant when facing this question. It is easy to cut, smash and grind the magic crystal stone, but it is a bit difficult to burn it into a molten state. For students, this question is not unsolvable, the key to winning lies in time.
The answer below shows that the students and contestants each used their own flame magic array and tried every means to increase the temperature of the flame and shorten the melting time.
Ge Zheng asked, "What do you think?" Bosingwa said ashamed, "I should be able to win, but I definitely can't do the shortest time." Peilin also said, "I calculated the time I'm going to consume, and I should be in the middle of the game here."
"Boshinwa, prepare your flame magic circle." Ge Zheng said. Boshinwa nodded and prepared his flame magic circle. With a magical input, a splendid flame rose into the furnace. Boshinwa also added his understanding of flame magic and slightly changed the magic circle. Therefore, the magic flame was so bright that the burning flame was higher than that of ordinary magic flames.
Ge Zheng sprinkled a handful of crystal powder, and the flames in the melting furnace rose a lot more with a "whistle" sound, and a wave of heat came to his face. Looking at the melting furnace, a pool of viscous red solution had formed.
Bosingwa was shocked: "Teacher, you grind the magic crystal into powder." Ge Zheng nodded: "Yes, the powdered magic crystal has the largest contact area with the flame, the most uniform heat, and can be melted in the shortest time. There is no requirement in the question that it must be a complete magic crystal. Moreover, the magic crystal that I chose to grind into powder is a fire-attribute magic crystal. It can also increase the temperature of the flame by a level, so that the time it takes is shorter. Do you understand?"
Bosingwa understood: "The teacher means to try every means to use the loopholes in the proposition to complete it!" Ge Zheng nodded with a smile: "That's right!" Peilin curled her lips and muttered with a laugh: "It's so high-sounding, just taking advantage of loopholes."
"Okay, let's see the second question."
The second question is: Use a standard-volume upper-grade magic crystal to refine a staff that can release at least ten level five magic continuously without consuming magic power.
This question is very difficult. There is only one standard volume of commodity magic crystal. Even if all the magic power of the magic crystal is used to release magic, it is very nervous to release ten level five magic. What's more, the magic power in this top-grade magic crystal is still consumed on "touching the magic inspiration", so no matter how you calculate the magic power, it is not enough.
The answers below are all kinds of strange, but none of them succeeded.
Bosingwa shook his head and said, "Even if he reaches the level 10 alchemist, this question may not be solved." Peilin thought for a while and said, "Maybe the use of the "Demon Chen Yanwu" that consumes the least magic power in the level 5 magic can meet the requirements..." Demon Chen Yanwu is an illusion magic that can only be used to confuse opponents, and it will be easily seen through. It is the most useless magic among the level 5 magic, but the advantage is that the magic power it consumes is the lowest among all level 5 magic.
However, Perlin himself was not sure, after all, the magic power of a magic crystal stone was too little.
Bosingwa looked at Ge Zheng, wanting to hear what the teacher said. Ge Zheng laughed: "A standard-volume top-grade magic crystal is really a waste and does not require so many magic crystals."
Bosingwa and Perine were shocked, and Bosingwa stuttered, "Teacher, you are a little bragging..." This sentence immediately aroused strong resonance with Perine, and the noble girl immediately flew to him with an encouraging look. Bosingwa's heart was shaking, as if it was ripples on the lake.
Ge Zheng was a little annoyed. These two little guys were less and less careful about themselves. Even Bosingwa was challenging his majesty. His face turned cold: "What if I could do it?" Bosingwa looked at Perin, and the latter said: "If you could do it, I would..." She originally wanted to make a big vow, but when she spoke, she suddenly remembered her previous experiences. She had gained wisdom after learning from her mistakes. She had suffered several losses several times, so she had to learn to be smarter. Although this time it seemed even more impossible, who knows if Ge Zheng had any other idea?
Peilin swallowed the words to her mouth and vomited out the other half: "...I promised you a not excessive request." Ge Zheng thought about it. The conditions were good, and there were still many things to be solved in his territory. Her grandfather was the prime minister of the empire and could help a lot.
"Okay." Ge Zheng said: "I don't have to do it anymore. Just talk about the idea. The magic wand needs a trigger magic inspiration built-in, which is connected to a storage space in the magic wand. The storage space does not need to be too large. Just install ten magic scrolls of level five magic..."
After a brief explanation, Bosingwa and Perine were stunned. Perine stuttered: "Teacher, you are too arrogant to do this? Will the judges committee rule that your work is valid?" Ge Zheng smiled and said: "I should argue with reason. They have no regulations that they cannot use magic scrolls."
"This..." The two of them felt a little upset. If they used this kind of rogue trick in the competition, they really didn't know what the judges would say. Ge Zheng said: "Don't worry, I'll have everything!"
"There is no other way to solve this problem. Unless you reach the level of my teacher, I will be able to win." Ge Zheng concluded. His subtext is: This kind of rogue trick is better if you don't have to use it unless you have to.
Peilin said in her heart: You are still a little self-aware.
In the following questions, Ge Zheng kept instilling a concept in the two of them that competition is competition, not ordinary alchemy, and there is no need to care about the quality of the work, as long as it can win the competition. This idea is indeed very utilitarian, but when Dongsheng faces the current situation, Ge Zheng's doing so is actually a helpless choice.
His indoctrination obviously played a role, and Bosingwa and Perine gradually got used to this way of thinking. By the second half of the page of the paper, Bosingwa and Perine were able to find some simple ways to complete the proposition.
The two had not been asleep for two days and a night. At night, they were exhausted and had a fight with their upper and lower eyelids, and they could not hold on. After Ge Zheng finished the exam questions, he finally let them go to bed with compassion.
Ge Zheng, who can sleeplessly for several days, and never eat or drink, is an alternative after all. The star refining world has only "introduced" one for millions of years. For other alchemists, a weak body is a common problem for them. During the long-term alchemy process, supplies must be prepared, and a bed is also needed in the laboratory. When the alchemy process becomes flat, or when it is a continuous heating period, everything is left to the magic circle and magic crystals. They jump onto the bed and hurry up and take a break.
On the morning of the third day, Ge Zheng began the practical exercise part of this special training. He figured out several test questions and threw them to Bosingwa and Perlin. He opened a curtain between them to separate them, and told the two very clearly that the results of this practical exercise will determine who will eventually represent Dongsheng. Although Bosingwa has a beautiful heart, he does not dare to let go. He understands this very clearly: beauties love heroes, and only by showing enough strength can he leave a deeper impression on Perlin.
