Dharma Ring: Selling dung beetles at the border

Se Lian and Tops walked into Du Juan's classroom.

The research in Dujuan Classroom is biased towards application. They like to imitate magic, which are magic props that do not require intelligence and the threshold is greatly lowered.

For example, a cuckoo stone that explodes into a magic ball attack when smashed, or a magic pot, which is a prop that mixes various materials to produce magic power and cause damage.

Although these props are not as powerful as real magic, they can often be used as weapons for those dull guards and cuckoos.

In the Dujuan classroom, there are many desks filled with various pyroxenes and crystals, where the research and debugging of imitation magic is carried out.

Se Lian suddenly laughed:

I'm reminded of a question that was widely circulated in the academy.

What's the problem? Topps asked.

How to solve the problem of counterfeit magic and cuckoo. Se Lian said.

Tops said: It's saying that the cuckoos are ambitious and do not completely surrender to the academy. They study counterfeit magic on their own. How to solve this problem?

Se Lian smiled and shook his head:

Magicians are very arrogant. How could they care about counterfeiting magic? Counterfeiting magic requires no intelligence and only a few resources to simulate the effects of magic - it's a bit similar to your research method.

Topps was confused:

What's the problem with counterfeit magic and cuckoos?

A very boring question that has nothing to do with magic. Se Lian said, Some people think that since counterfeit magic can achieve magic-like effects, why don't magicians directly use counterfeit magic?

Tops opened his mouth, not knowing how to respond to this question.

He felt that this question was too ridiculous and he didn't know how to answer it for a moment.

For the magicians, the response to this question is very simple - Se Lian said, That is to not respond. For this kind of question, the magicians think that if they answer the question, they will lose.

I think I heard that story as a joke, Topps said.

To the magicians, this is a joke. Se Lian said, But combined with another story, it is not very funny.

Se Lian touched the pyroxenes and crystals with her sleeves:

Cuckoo is not loyal to the magicians. After a long period of contempt and alienation by magicians, there will always be some cuckoo rebellion. Cuckoo's counterfeit magic is not as powerful as real magic, but it is enough to kill many magicians. .”

Ignorance is not powerless, Topps said.

That's right. Se Lian said, When the conflict between Du Juan and magicians breaks out, magicians who think highly of themselves often fall into the dust.

She raised the crystal of her hands:

If you ignore those cuckoos, a lot of time and energy of the magicians will be consumed. In this case, it is the most economical and cost-effective to ignore and block the opinions of the cuckoos.

But long-term neglect will also lead to the growth of resentment and incomprehension. Sooner or later, the cuckoos will rebel and kill a large number of magicians. The knowledge and dignity that once made them think highly of themselves are not much superior in the face of counterfeit magic. go.

Tops asked: How did the college solve it?

The college has not solved the problem. Se Lian said, Aren't they still in this arrogant way - closing the door, being self-centered, and rejecting students who want to study. And Du Juan will often escape from the control of the college.

Topps asked, Is there no solution to this problem?

Yes. Se Lian said.

What is it? Topps asked subconsciously.

Become a child of the star! Se Lian said with enthusiasm, Human beings are so stupid and narrow-minded. Only by expanding our horizons and becoming a child of the star can we transcend the limitations of the body and the limitations of our thinking.

Tops took a breath, but he didn't expect Se Lian to be waiting for him here.

He smiled awkwardly:

Yes, yes, the Star Child is very powerful...

Tops ignored him and was ready to skip the topic.

He suddenly saw the pyroxene stone covers hanging on the wall that covered the entire wall.

Each style of pyroxene stone cover represents a famous magic master who can establish a sect and establish a new classroom in the college.

Students in the college are all proud of being gifted with a glowing stone cover. Different talents and talents, and different research fields, will choose different classrooms.

Se Lian noticed Topps' gaze and looked over with a soft expression:

I really miss the days when I was given a stone shield and chose a classroom.

Tops couldn't feel the same way as Se Lian. He still didn't have a hood. Although he attended some classrooms, he had never been officially crowned.

Se Lian said: With your current level, you can definitely enter the classroom to study. Which classroom do you want to choose, and which glowing stone cover do you want to be given?

Se Lian knew all the treasures and introduced them to Tops:

The Kaleros Classroom, the place where I first studied, is the classroom with the oldest history and the greatest influence. My first teacher, Master Yazler, the founder of pyroxene magic, once taught here;

Olivenis Classroom, exploring meteor-like magic. Master Lusset once taught here. He is the person closest to the Star Child.

Tops said: Another founder of pyroxene magic.

Tops looked at those masks with emotion.

He also admired these masters very much, so how could he not know the stories and great figures behind the stone shield.

Double-Sages Classroom, a classroom where the brightest students study;

Haimo Classroom, study the magic of cannon and sanctions;

Razli's classroom, learning the heresies of Kallia and Academy magic on an equal footing.

…

Tops looked at the hoods with blurry eyes:

I will be satisfied with whoever can take a fancy to me.

You have to take the initiative to choose. Se Lian encouraged him, This is the spirit that is consistent with the magician's spirit of exploration.

Tops said: Speaking of which, you are a talented girl in the college. How many classrooms have you studied in?

Except for Haimo Classroom, which I haven't studied much, I have basically studied everything. Haimo Classroom studies cannons and sanctions magic. Se Lian thought while holding her chin, But I also have a relationship with Haimo Classroom.

What origin?

He was pronounced guilty in court by their hammer, Se Lian said, and he was also shot.

Se Lian was a little angry:

Cannons and sanctions? Magicians want to explore without any taboos. Do these people understand? I really want to crush them into magic cubes and make them shut down that noisy noise generator forever.

Uh... Topps felt that there was no way around the crimes Serian had committed in the academy.

Tops wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked around to prevent anyone from hearing what Se Lian said.

Tops said: But you didn't accept the academy's verdict, but you listened to Wuming's words.

Se Lian nodded: He has expressed his position on this issue - there are no taboos, but it must be efficient and economical. His philosophy is not unreasonable. In the past, in order to create magic blocks, dozens or hundreds of magicians were needed. If the consumption can be reduced , the same resources can undoubtedly bring people closer to the realm of Star Children.”

Topps adjusted Se Lian's sleeves, and several magicians came from a distance.

Judging from the pyroxene stone covers, they are all students in the Caleros classroom.

Today, Master Azler, the foundation of the classroom, has been expelled from the academy. Although the apprentices in the Caleros classroom have turned their backs on Master Azler, they still regard this hood as one of the oldest and most honorable hoods. one.

Although during the long period of closure of the academy, almost all magicians have obtained hoods, and there are almost no ordinary apprentices in the academy.

Tops? You're back. The approaching Caleros apprentice greeted Tops.

Yes, I'm back. I want to attend the crowning ceremony and study in the classroom. Tops responded to the apprentices.

The apprentices chuckled a few times:

Good luck to you then.

With that said, the apprentices walked to their respective research tables, looked up books next to the bookshelf, and studied pyroxene.

These apprentices did not show any obvious contempt, but their disdain was very obvious in their words.

The pages of the book turned, the crucible collided, and the surroundings fell into a quiet research environment. Everyone ignored Topps.

The greatest contempt is probably complete ignorance.

This kind of silence made Topps a little unbearable.

Topps pulled Se Lian:

Come on, let's go see the magic professor.

When the masters are still in the magic academy, they can directly recruit apprentices, give the apprentices a glowing stone mask, and take them to their own classrooms to learn.

But now that the masters have been expelled, the work of conferring apprenticeships has been left to magic professors.

This job was handed over to the magic professor, which was also the result of the game between the royal family and the academy.

Magic professors are loyal to the royal family of Carlia, and with the apprentices they choose, the academy will be more closely bound to the royal family of Carlia, promoting the integration of both parties.

Tops found an apprentice and asked for the location of the magic professor.

The apprentice wearing the Olivine pyroxene stone mask replied: The magic professor is in the rest room on the west side of the Cuckoo classroom.

When Topps and Se Lian rushed to the lounge, they didn't see the magic professor.

There was no other way, so Topps could only find another nearby apprentice to ask.

The magic professor is in the hidden little room over the cuckoo classroom.

Tops then hurried back and searched for a long time before he found the small room hidden in the Cuckoo Church.

But there is still no magic professor.

Where is it? Tops was tired and covered in sweat.

Are you looking for the magic professor? The apprentice in Razli's classroom next to him came over with a mahogany sword. The professor has gone to the cemetery.

I just walked in that direction and didn't touch it... Tops ran towards the cemetery again.

The cemetery is very large, and many immortals and puppets eroded by pyroxene occupy this cemetery, but the magic professor's eye-catching big hat is not seen.

Tops had no choice but to move forward in order to meet the professor.

On the way, Topps was a little sad:

They're not making fun of me, are they?

Se Lian said: I don't know, my instructors took me there when I entered the classroom.

Tops covered his face: The top student is so good.

They walked to a waterwheel, where they encountered a humanoid figure wearing minimal clothing and a large sword at his waist.

He does not look like a human being. He is tall and slender with pale skin, as if he grew up in a gravity-free environment.

His ears are long and pointed, and his appearance is far different from that of ordinary people. The texture of the skin is not like flesh, it looks cracked and hard.

This...shouldn't be a magic professor, right? Topps was also a little unsure.

Don't be rude. Se Lian poked Tops' lower back.

Se Lian took the initiative to step forward, bowed to the pale humanoid figure who was slender and inhuman, and introduced to Tops:

This is the respected White King.

The White King...who is it? Topps wondered.

He rarely saw Se Lian with such an attitude.

Serian usually only shows respect for masters such as Yazler.

Son of the Star. Se Lian said concisely and concisely. In just three words, Topps understood why Se Lian had this attitude.

No wonder. Topps suddenly realized.

He also followed Se Lian and followed suit, saluting the stone-skinned white king.

There are not many magicians who are so polite. King Bai sighed.

So you can speak? Topps was surprised.

Se Lian said: Latarn's gravity magic was taught by the White Kings. Of course the White Kings can speak.

Do you know where the Professor of Magic is? Topps still hasn't forgotten about the crowning ceremony. I heard that the Professor has come to the cemetery.

Professor of Magic? You're not here. Bai Wang said.

Tops smiled bitterly:

As expected...are the apprentices trying to entertain me...they told me about the place near Dujuan's classroom.

King Bai said: They are not lying to you, but they are indeed entertaining you.

Tops was stunned: What does this mean?

Bai Wang said: That magic professor is studying teleportation magic and will teleport at high speed along a fixed route. If you follow him, you will definitely not be able to catch up. Those apprentices did tell you the professor's location, but they did not tell you. You won't Maybe keep up.”

Can it still be like this? Tops was stunned, What should we do?

Just go to a fixed place and wait. Se Lian nudged Tops, You go and wait. I still have academic questions that I want to ask King Bai for advice.

Se Lian's habit of being unable to walk suddenly broke out when she saw the Star Son. She pushed Tops away without fear of being exposed. She rolled up her arms and sleeves and chatted about magic issues with King Bai.

Tops looked at Se Lian, whose eyes were shining with stars, and did not disturb him again, and returned to Du Juan's classroom alone.

He went to the hidden little room and waited for the magic professor to teleport over.

It's relatively quiet here. You don't have to deal with those magic apprentices with bad attitudes, so it's suitable for being alone.

But Tops didn't wait long. The professor didn't come, but a few apprentices blocked the door.

These apprentices wore all kinds of headgear, holding bottles and cans in their hands, and walked towards Topps enthusiastically.

Tops, help us test our newly developed counterfeit magic.

I'm waiting for the magic professor... Topps said, I'm going to report and present my research later and strive for a crown.

What's the rush? It's still early for the magic professor to come here. Please help us test it.

Yes, this counterfeit magic requires unqualified people to test it. Our data is the most objective. The pyroxen magicians surrounded Topps and slapped their white plaster hoods on his face. You are a piece of waste. , couldn’t be more appropriate.”

Tops imagined in his mind that he would show off his might, knock them all over, and walk away, leaving behind an enigmatic figure.

But after imagining it, he still whispered: Okay.
