Chapter 103: The Original Slate: Proof of the World's Strongest
Ikrit School of Magic, Learning and Education Building.
This building is a multidisciplinary learning facility that serves the teaching needs of a large number of students. The space is no longer an isolated tower in the traditional sense, but incorporates a series of horizontal extensions, making the spacious building more spacious for learning and activities.
The clustering of internal walls breaks down the scale of the entire building into more detailed pieces. Many of the corridors, courtyards, cantilevers, terraces and stairs within the building are designed to look like canyons, forest trails, habitats, cliffs and open-air theaters with a sense of modern art, presenting a miraculous indoor landscape.
The fourth floor is the magic research area.
A special stepped classroom is like a huge artificial valley, interwoven with mountain and forest elements, as well as natural light pouring in from the skylight, creating a fresh and unique learning environment.
In this spacious classroom, the seats extend in a stepped manner and are almost full at this time.
Different from other compulsory courses in the Sage Academy that are divided into small classes, this "General Knowledge of Magical Genealogy" is a compulsory course for students in both the Sage Academy and the Magic Engineering Academy.
Therefore, the course will bring together students from both colleges for a large lecture-style teaching model.
There were still some empty seats in front, behind, and around Lanci and Hyperion in the back row of the classroom.
In the past few days, the legend about the "Royal Capital Bully Trio" has begun to spread on campus -
The strongest lackey in the history of the student union destroyed the club room of the Fighter's Soul Team on its first deployment, which made the honest senior sister Tserwini so angry that her face turned red and she chased them to kill them, and finally burst into tears.
"As expected of a half-demon and a Lanqi, they look even less human than in the Shadow World..."
Many freshmen in the Magic Engineering Academy who saw the two of them for the first time were amazed and whispered to each other in low voices.
On the natural wood pile seats in the back.
Hyperion studied hard as always.
What is rare is that Lanqi is not sick at all.
He also frowned and listened to the class very seriously.
This is the only course among all the required courses that will not torture Lanqi, because it is almost entirely about important theories of magic and magic engineering, and does not require practical spellcasting skills.
The teacher was also familiar to him and Hyperion. She was the very gentle teacher Theresa who was responsible for scheduling them to take the exam during the third round of entrance examinations.
It seemed that Teacher Theresa, who was at the front of the classroom, was about to get to the important part.
Even Lanqi sat up straighter.
"There are thirty-two [Original Slates] in this world. Each one is the pinnacle of epic magic cards, corresponding to the pinnacle of a certain type of magic."
"But unlike normal epic cards that would disappear into history, the [Original Slate] can be passed down forever!"
On the semicircular gray wooden podium, Teacher Theresa's voice was clear and infectious. She raised her arm and pointed to a slate image and its identification effect used as an example on the magic projection screen.
[Original Slate-Wind]
[Category: Equipment Card]
[Grade: Orange Epic]
[Attribute: Wind]
[Level: 5]
[Passive effect: The original slate cannot be destroyed. Only living beings in this world can be soul-bound. A maximum of one can be bound. All wind attribute magic, martial arts, equipment, and summons are fully enhanced. The slate will be unbound when the soul-bound person dies.]
[Note: All things in the world will eventually be reborn, and the wind will always blow across this land.]
The three-dimensional rotating projection on the screen is a thin and small ancient stone floating board. The streamlined edges and faint magic patterns seem to be telling a story of tens of millions of years. The texture of the stone is warm, and the color has become deep and full due to the baptism of time.
On the intricate and mysterious magic spells, those tiny spirals are like the traces of stars across the night sky, brilliant and secretive, and seem to contain wisdom and deep power that cannot be erased even if the world is destroyed.
"This is the [Original Slate - Wind] held by Mr. Loren, the high priest of the Church of the Goddess of Destiny, and it is on display. It looks like a product of God, and it also looks like it was left by ancient sages. It has obvious traces of magic technology transformation."
Teacher Theresa continued,
"And for the magic craftsmen in the Magic Engineering Academy, just by seeing the stone slabs in person, they can greatly enhance their understanding of the production of this type of magic props."
As soon as her voice fell, it was like a brick thrown into a puddle, splashing the discussion of the students in the classroom.
Teacher Teresa stood on the podium with a calm expression and smiled. She opened her cup and took a sip of water to moisten her throat.
The classroom is designed with an open sense of space and a broad perspective, and can be transformed into a seminar format.
Everyone can raise their own questions and ideas and actively discuss and interact with the teacher.
Teacher Theresa knew that this kind of course needed to stimulate students' interest in learning and give them time for free discussion, rather than her blindly indoctrinating lectures.
At this moment, under the podium, the students sitting next to each other were discussing constantly.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"No wonder our Magic Academy has a graduation mission, which is to go to the mainland to find a slate holder and get a chance to observe!"
"Some seniors who are looking for convenience actually ran directly to the Sage Academy to find Dean Loren and asked to observe his [Original Slate-Wind]!"
But Dean Loren is not only the guardian of the Kingdom of Hutton, but also the high priest of the Church of the Goddess of Fate. He is certainly not such an idle person.
It is impossible to take out one's vital magic cards like exhibits for students in need to study.
Correspondingly, Loren will give students some more important public welfare tasks of the Kingdom of Hutton or tasks of the Church of the Goddess of Destiny.
If the student can complete the test, he will give the student the opportunity to observe the stone slab as a reward.
In addition, occasionally, magic craftsmen students and even teachers from other allied countries and schools would come to visit Dean Loren every year, and Loren would make similar fair requests.
For those who seek to study or visit, strong and easy-to-talk people from friendly and allied countries will generally give them a chance and put forward tests similar to Loren's.
Of course, there are also those slate holders who like to be alone, or have a cold or unreasonable personality, and they will not pay any attention to ordinary visitors.
"If you have a piece of the [Original Slate], you will be a respected and admired person. I want it too... By the way, Hyperion, do you know of any other owners of the [Original Slate] besides Dean Loren?"
Lanci and Hyperion beside him sighed with a smile.
The two of them often chat when they have nothing to do. Apart from class time, they also go to play with Frey. The student union room is a spacious and comfortable place.
However.
Lanqi's words seemed to touch upon Hyperion's sorrow.
A trace of gloomy sadness flashed across her eyes, and then she looked away.
It seems that he doesn't want Lanqi to find out.
He just lowered his head and nodded.
