Chapter 161: Thick Accumulation (3)

 Chapter 161 Thick Accumulation (3)

 Compared with a person who drinks "Little Enlightenment Tea" at any time to "study", how can other students compare?

 The reason why Gaode thought "it's not that difficult" was because he didn't have all the magical skills and was afraid that he wouldn't be able to learn from other students.

 Just

  There is a course fee to attend classes.

  And the "tuition fee" of each course is not cheap, 10 gold coins is just the starting price!

 Whether it is possible to understand this issue by taking multiple elective courses, [Divine Guidance +] can solve this problem.

 But whether you can afford to take multiple courses is another matter.

 This matter is not within the business scope of [Divine Guidance +].

  After finishing today's study of "Rune Literature", Gothe went to the restaurant and added a special special dish that he had not tasted for a long time, just as a "food supplement" after overexerting his brain.

  Today's special dish in the restaurant is grilled shark steak, served with asparagus and sliced ​​tomatoes as a side dish, and comes with a dessert: raisin shortbread.

  There are novelties and flavors, but the price of this special dish is 12 silver coins.

 This made Gothe grit his teeth twice before he made up his mind and ordered one.

 After finishing the meal, it was still some time before the afternoon class of "Nolan Continent Geography and War Geography" started.

Gaode returned to the dormitory first, took out the materials he had compiled for the course "Understanding of General Spells (Level 0-3)" and "General Knowledge of Medicinal Materials", and sat down in the meditation room.

 Having regained a lot of energy and virtue, I took a deep breath, cast another [Divine Guidance +] on myself, and then devoted my attention to the information.

 Soon, he once again entered the flow state of "empty mind and active thinking".

  In this state, the speed of time seems to have slowed down.

  The knowledge points of only two courses flowed through his mind one after another as he continued to read the materials.

 Time passes minute by minute.

 One hour later.

 Gaode put down the materials in his hand with a tired face, took out his water bag, and took another sip of the fruit drink without leakage.

  Corresponding to the tired look on his face, is the infinite satisfaction and joy in his heart.

In just this hour, Gothe felt that he remembered and understood more things than he had in half a month.

 Of course, in the previous life, there was a magical being called a college student, who could learn more things in one or two days than in a semester, and the prerequisite was "before the final exam."

 But Gaode's situation is different. He was able to achieve such miraculous effects even though his previous studies had been very thorough and hard-working.

 The freshman’s first credit score?

  He suddenly felt that this achievement, which he had regarded as a short-term goal, was not worth mentioning.

 Because, it has become too simple.

  Things that are too easy to accomplish are not suitable as goals.

I took out my pocket watch and took a look. It was only half past twelve noon.

  The afternoon classes don’t start until two o’clock.

Gaode, who entered the flow state after performing [Divine Guidance +] twice in a row, no longer held back and chose to go to bed and take a nap to regain his energy.

 The 23rd of the Misty Month.

 Gaode knocked on He Xi's door again. Under He Xi's incomprehensible and suspicious eyes, he took the initiative to increase the daily learning amount to twice the current amount.

 And in the inspection later that day, he conquered the hesitant He Xi with an absolutely perfect performance.

 The 27th of the Misty Month.

 With the dual blessing of the first-level training room and the leak-proof water, Gothe's guidance method has experienced its third small breakthrough since entering Sires Academy.

After this breakthrough, his total mana was enough to support him to cast 11 tricks in one go.

 If he continues to practice at this speed, Gao De estimated that it would only take another year for him to practice the apprentice guidance method to perfection.

 By then, he would be only fourteen or fifteen years old.

   Can you be considered a genius if you look at it this way?

 Of course, this kind of genius must be preceded by the word "pseudo".

  This kind of pseudo-genius is especially numerous among the nobles.

 Because the resources that aristocratic mages can enjoy are definitely far better than Gothic.

Even a mid-to-low mage talent like Gothe can quickly complete the training progress of the guidance method by earning resources on his own. This is not a problem for aristocratic mage.

 Then why can a 14-year-old level 1 mage like Yolan still shock so many people?

 The reason is not complicated.

 The guidance method can use resources to quickly fill up the progress, but there is no such shortcut for meditation!

  There are few methods to improve the progress of meditation practice. Even noble mages can only rely on themselves.

 Therefore, it is extremely common for the children of the nobility to practice the apprenticeship guidance method to perfection within the age range of 13-15 years old with the support of resources.

However, due to the lagging progress in meditation, there are many examples of delays in upgrading the mage level to the third-level mage apprentice until after the age of twenty.

 But for Gaode, this problem is not that difficult.

 Because his talent for meditation is far better than his talent for guidance.

 Hence, even if his progress is delayed by meditation after he has completed the guidance method, it will not be delayed for too long.

 The 28th of the Misty Month.

  Gaode came to Building No. 17 in District 1.

 This is where Jelika's dormitory is.

 The courses at Siris College mostly start at the beginning of each month, and few start at the end of the month.

 So even if he is completely "study free" now, Gaode has no courses to choose from for the time being and needs to wait until the Frozen Moon comes.

 But before that, he must get enough money to pay for the next course selection fees.

 Gaode's savings are only 63 gold and 8 silver, which is not enough to support his "ambition".

  If you want to get a large sum of money in a short period of time, it is obviously not possible to do so by taking on college tasks.

 Gothe thought carefully for a long time and found that there is only one way out for him at the moment:

 Sell leak-proof water.

 Although the leak-free fruit drink is also of great help to Gaode, under today's circumstances, exchanging it for money is obviously more profitable.

 As for taking action without leakage, the only channels Gaode can think of are Shadi and Jelika.

  The former are from mutual aid associations, so they should be easy to talk to.

 It's just that how to win the trust of others is a difficult problem. In addition, even members of the mutual aid association may not have enough money to buy such a useful but not urgently needed fruit drink.

 After considering this, Gaode gave up the Shadi channel.

 As for the latter, firstly, they have already experienced the magical effect of leak-free water and have had a "transaction". They are considered old customers and do not need any further introduction, which is convenient and worry-free.

 Second, Jelika is rich!

  This is truly a "rich daughter".

 Only those with enough money would be willing to buy non-essential items such as leak-proof water.

 So, Gothe packed up his remaining fruit drinks and came to visit Jelika for the first time.

 Two gallons of leak-free water, after brewing, yield approximately 2 gallons and 4 pints (approximately 12 liters) of fruit drink.

 You need to drink 7 juices (approximately 0.2 liters) of fruit drink a day to fully exert the effect of leak-proof water. If you drink more, the effect will not be further enhanced.

 One gallon is converted into 8 pints.

 Gaode has consumed about 6 pints of fruit drink these days, and there are still 14 pints of fruit drink left. According to one serving per day, it can be regarded as 42 servings.

  He had previously given Jelika a small pot of nearly 1 pint of fruit drink, and Jelika paid 10 gold coins as the purchase price.

With this rough calculation, if all the remaining 14 pints of fruit drinks can be sold in Jelika, it can bring about 140 gold income to Gaode.
