Chapter 21 Thunder
A series of "excellent" and "very excellent" results popped out like a machine gun, and the old wizard's jaw almost dropped to the table.
His originally contemptuous smile completely froze, replaced by a face full of horror and uncontrollable trembling.
Resistance to mental erosion and mind control has reached the fourth level?!
This is close to the core resistance of some high-level protective constructs!
And the last few items, corrosion and curse resistance, actually directly reported the result of "assessment exceeds the current instrument range" and gave a prompt of "upgrade testing recommended"?!
This instrument is a standard device that can detect the resistance of materials below the level of a fifth-ring wizard!
This, this, this... How is this possible? !
The old wizard's abnormality attracted the attention of other detection wizards around him.
They came over to take a look, and when they saw the first two glaring "poor" on the test result list, followed by a dazzling string of "excellent", "excellent", and even the words "assessment out of range", the entire testing center instantly boiled over!
"What the hell? What kind of material is this?!"
"Why are the physical and energy resistances at the front so poor? And why is the erosion resistance at the back so high? It's totally inconsistent!"
"Beyond the range of the instrument? This is at least something that a fifth-ring wizard can research, right? Who submitted it?!"
"Where's the name of the submitter?! Is it some high-level wizard? Why didn't he take the special channel?"
They all looked at the simple label on the material sample bottle, which only said - "Stainless steel-based insulation material" and an apprentice number!
"Apprentice?!" Everyone was stunned.
A wizard's apprentice?! Are you kidding me?!
A testing wizard, who was only a first-ring official wizard, picked up the clipboard with trembling hands, his voice distorted: "Quick! Go get the supervisor!!!"
The entire testing center was in chaos. All the wizards gathered around and looked at those unremarkable pieces of tin with shock, confusion and disbelief in their eyes.
After seeing the test results, some clever wizards have even begun to secretly contact their companions, asking them to be ready at all times and purchase the isolation material with this number on the magic network.
With a curse and corrosion resistance exceeding five rings, this level of material is absolutely controlled even in the Noren Workshop.
Insulation material?
What a waste of resources!
Wouldn't it be great to use this level of material to make a protective magical weapon?!
As for weak physical and energy resistance...this has never been a problem!
After all, wizards are best at these two aspects of protection, and some of them have related protective measures.
In the endless plane wars, the biggest trouble wizards encounter is the erosion and damage caused by various incomprehensible unknown forces.
The reason why logistics wizards have to go to the front line is to be able to analyze the various special energies or substances in the plane at all times and quickly develop countermeasures.
Similarly, the greatest loss to logistics wizards is the damage caused in the process of researching these things.
And with this thing, unless you are extremely unlucky, you will have an extra life!
More and more wizards thought of this, and the secret communications with the outside world became more and more frequent.
So, when the director arrived here, almost all the official wizards in the academy became excited.
That night, an anonymous apprentice and a piece of unremarkable material cast a silent thunder in the depths of the alchemy workshop of Nolen Academy.
At this moment, as the focus of everyone's discussion, Benjamin was still sweating profusely in a corner of the warehouse, "moving bricks", working hard for those life-saving points.
He had no idea that his unintentional action had caused such a stir within the academy.
…
…
In Material Warehouse No. 5, the air was filled with the mixed smell of dust and various minerals.
The warehouse is like a huge cave, filled with various raw materials.
The air was filled with the dust of ore and the dry smell of plants. Sunlight shone in through several rune glass holes on the top, forming beams of light, and countless tiny dust particles danced in the beams of light.
Wearing protective clothing, Benjamin was assigned here with several other apprentices. In front of them were piles of ores and plants.
They need to identify these materials one by one according to the "Basic Materials Manual", sort them into different boxes, weigh them and label them.
"Oh, another physical job." A fellow apprentice sighed, bent down and started to carry the ore.
"If it were just pure physical labor, why would we have to identify the minerals? These things look exactly the same!" Another apprentice also sighed.
Jieming didn't say anything, but joined in after putting on protective clothing.
While using his mental power to carefully identify the ore in his hand, he mechanically repeated the actions of sorting and weighing.
Suddenly, Benjamin paused because he saw Victor and his mission partner walking into the entrance of the warehouse.
They seemed to have just completed a mission and came here to look for the next one.
Victor saw at a glance the "sorting" task that Benjamin and his team were carrying out, but he did not come over. Instead, he took his partner to the extension of the task board in the warehouse.
After a while, Benjamin heard Victor's voice coming from not far away.
He seemed to have found another promising mission and was trying to convince his partner.
"Look, this 'Energy Conductivity Test' mission requires you to go to Energy Room 3... It's a bit out of the way, but the mission itself isn't difficult; it just involves operating a few instruments, and the points awarded are twice as much as sorting!" Victor's tone was persuasive. "Don't just do the hard work, use your brain!"
His partner seemed a little hesitant: "The energy room... I heard that the energy fluctuations there are sometimes unstable..."
"It's okay! We have protective measures! Besides, the instability is a good opportunity to record more data. Maybe I can even write a small report for the instructor and leave a good impression." Victor dismissed his partner's concerns lightly, his tone full of confidence that "you will definitely go right if you follow me."
Listening to his words, Benjamin curled his lips.
He was sure that Victor had definitely accepted bribes from someone in the Energy Room and was simply trying to take advantage of the situation.
Of course, it can’t be said to be a trap, after all, what he said is not wrong.
But Victor didn't tell the unlucky guy that most of the energy fluctuations tested in the energy room were not harmonious. They were not harmful to the human body, but he would inevitably feel dizzy, nauseous and want to vomit for two or three days after the test.
However, Benjamin had no intention of exposing this guy's intention. After all, there was no deep hatred between the two sides.
