Chapter 46 The Outrageous Flower Rain Formation
If it were someone else shouting, Ah Chen definitely wouldn't go over to meddle.
But this young lady was so cool and was the first to stand up for him, so Ah Chen couldn't pretend he didn't see it.
"Senior sister, what is the Flower Rain Formation? Why did we end up in such a terrible situation?" Ah Chen asked with concern.
"Waaah! Junior brother, you don't know this, but our Instructor Dong Ying's method of punishing students is very peculiar. She doesn't hit or scold them, she just throws them directly into the talisman array she has drawn."
When you first step into this flower shower, you'll see a sky full of colorful petals, as beautiful as a fairyland.
But what you don't know is that those petals are poisonous. If they get on your skin, they will cause redness and swelling, and unbearable itching.
The most terrifying thing is that this itch seeps into your bones, making you feel unbearably itchy, and even alchemy instructors cannot cure this strange poison.
"We can only endure the torment for a full six hours until it dissipates naturally," his senior sister explained in detail.
She felt that for them, the veteran students, innovation was harder than climbing to heaven, so they were bound to go through this ordeal.
However, the cute and delicate junior brother might be able to draw a mid-grade transmission talisman if he puts in the effort, thus avoiding the torment.
"Senior sister, what are Professor Dong Ying's requirements for innovation symbols?" Achen asked, feigning curiosity.
"I don't have any high requirements. I just want to add some other functions to the basic voice transmission function, such as preventing people around from hearing when the other party activates your voice transmission."
For example, sound transmission talismans can confuse the voice of the person transmitting the sound, but these sound easy, and are actually very difficult to draw successfully.
"To be honest, junior brother, I've tried hundreds of times in private, but I haven't succeeded even once," the senior sister said, her face full of shame.
Actually, Ah Chen didn't think his senior sister had anything to be ashamed of. Innovation isn't something you can succeed at just by trying.
Sometimes it really requires a bit of inspiration, or a hint from someone else.
For example, right now, he feels he should be able to give this senior female student some pointers.
It's not that he's some kind of all-around genius, but rather that he comes from a technologically advanced civilization. The communication talisman is actually a kind of communication device. In his world, communication was already quite advanced, and there were so many things to learn from it.
Thinking of this, he first carefully observed the runes on the transmission talisman several times, then picked up the pen and used his mind to infuse spiritual power into the tip of the pen.
The senior sister saw this delicate and cute junior brother, whose brushstrokes were so fast that they were almost invisible to her.
In just a quarter of an hour, a superior transmission talisman was drawn!
Senior sister clapped her hands excitedly and said, "Junior brother, you are simply amazing! You actually completed a high-grade talisman in just a quarter of an hour!"
The other senior sisters watching from the side also showed expressions of admiration. It wasn't that they hadn't drawn high-grade talismans before, but for this junior brother to complete a high-grade talisman in such a short time was something they never even dared to dream of.
No wonder he ranked first in this year's admissions assessment and was noticed by Chang Jingsheng, the head of their Talisman Making Department, who went to great lengths to trick him into joining their department.
That's right, that's what the talisman-making students were talking about in private.
It is said that among those vying to directly seize this junior brother were Long Qiushuang, the head of the combat department; Wei Shengzhengyang, the puppet master; and Ming Yuanxin, the head of the alchemy department.
It is said that other department heads were also eager to participate, but the dean stopped them, saying that the students' own choices should be respected.
Therefore, on the day of freshman registration, Professor Chang stood guard at the entrance of the college early in the morning, until his neck ached from exhaustion.
If the junior brother hadn't arrived late that day, and all the other instructors had left impatiently, leaving only Instructor Chang, the junior brother probably wouldn't have been tricked into coming to the Talisman Making Department.
"Senior sisters, may I ask your honorable names?" Achen asked earnestly, looking at the young ladies who were clapping for him.
"My name is Leng Qiuchan, and her name is Qiu Shuangyu," the spirited young lady answered first, pointing to the pretty girl beside her.
"My name is Luo Qiuyan, her name is Xin Li, and her name is Shao Yezi. The five of us are in a group." Another tall, thin girl also introduced herself and her companions generously.
“Five senior sisters, you just praised me for my speed. I’ve come up with an innovative direction for communication talismans,” Achen said.
"What new direction? Tell me quickly!" Leng Qiuchan was an impatient person and hurriedly asked.
“Listening won’t help. Even if we have new ideas, it’s impossible to finish them in such a short time,” Luo Qiuyan said nonchalantly, already prepared to be punished.
"Senior sisters, don't worry, listen to me! I feel that our sound transmission talisman has a slightly slower transmission speed if the transmission distance is a little too far."
So I was thinking, could we innovate in terms of speed?
"If we can reduce the transmission speed of the sound transmission talisman by even a third, it will definitely be of great use in an emergency. Don't you all agree?" Ah Chen coaxed patiently.
“Junior Brother is right! But how can we increase the speed of the transmission talisman?” Qiu Shuangyu’s voice was gentle and her pace was unhurried.
“I happen to have an idea about this as well. If we could inject a little wind elemental power into the talisman brush when drawing the transmission talisman, I wonder if it would increase its speed?” Achen said.
"Junior Brother's idea is great!" Leng Qiuchan slapped her thigh excitedly. In the past, they had thought of other innovative methods, but unfortunately, they were all very difficult to implement.
However, the innovative method proposed by Achen this time only requires the addition of a little wind elemental power.
“But this restriction is too great. It’s almost impossible for someone without a wind spirit root to convert wind spirit power, right?” Qiu Shuangyu said with a slight frown.
“Yes, that is indeed a problem. But I have another idea. If we can combine the Swiftness Talisman and the Transmission Talisman into one, then wouldn’t all talisman masters be able to draw this super-speed transmission talisman?” Achen said.
"Yes, yes, yes! Junior Brother, the name you came up with for this talisman is also great, let's call it the Super Speed Transmission Talisman!" Luo Qiuyan said excitedly.
Seeing that Leng Qiuchan and her group of five had found their direction, Achen quietly retreated to his seat, keeping his achievements hidden.
He can actually draw both of these methods.
After Aunt Mina used the Spirit Tempering Liquid and grew a Wind Spirit Root, she specially bought a Spirit Storage Jade Pendant that could store spiritual energy.
She filled up her wind spirit power and gave it to Achen so that he could use the pair of levitation anklets at any time.
Mina felt that her spiritual power was free, which was much more cost-effective than using spirit stones as a driving force.
Therefore, Achen can draw upon wind spirit power at any time to draw super-speed transmission talismans.
And because of the laundry last night, he tried countless times to combine magic and spells. With that as a foundation, combining talismans shouldn't be too difficult.
All the senior female students: Hehe!
Two hours later, Leng Qiuchan and her group still failed to complete the fusion of the talisman and the spirit talisman. Fortunately, Shao Yezi, one of the five of them, happened to have a wind spirit root.
She infused wind spirit energy into the spirit storage jade pendant and distributed some to each member of the group, so that they could all draw their own speed transmission talismans from now on.
