Chapter 203 The Role of Expertise
In the afternoon.
Gothe came to the potion department.
In the name of learning [Language Proficiency] and needing to prepare spells and potions, he applied to the Potions Department to collect maid clams by himself.
This is one of the benefits that the college has always provided to students. Everyone can apply, so the entire application process is very smooth.
"Every day from nine to twelve in the morning and from two to five in the afternoon, it is open time to collect clams in the water."
The staff of the Potions Department explained: "In addition, only one maid clam is allowed to be collected, and there will be staff to supervise it."
Gaode nodded.
He already knew this information before applying.
After completing the application process and paying the fee of 5 gold coins, Gothe went directly to the water area where maid clams are bred under Coolie Cliff.
Coming here again, Gaode's state of mind was completely different from a year ago.
Under the watchful eyes of the staff in this water area, Gothe took off his clothes, skillfully got into the water and dived towards the bottom of the river.
Even after a year, he is still very familiar with clam picking.
It was already afternoon, but the water at the bottom of the river was still very cold, which stimulated Gothe's body and made him shiver.
Although he is already a first-level mage at this time.
But because he was promoted just yesterday, the spell model of [Endure the Environment] has not yet had time to build.
Gaode is still the same as when he was doing the entrance task, he can only rely on his body to endure the low temperature at the bottom of the river.
Although his body was shaking slightly from the cold, the cold was far from reaching the physiological limit, so he didn't take it seriously.
Gothe used [Detection Magic+] and began to search for possible maid clams in the mud at the bottom of the river.
Compared with a year ago, he is one year older, and his physical fitness has also improved a lot. The time he can hold his breath underwater has also increased from the previous three minutes to almost four minutes.
Today's luck is not very good.
Continuously ascending and descending to take breaths four or five times, Gothe still found no sign of the maid clam.
But he was not discouraged.
In fact, wasting more time here is exactly what Gaode wants.
Hit the water again.
Somehow, Gothe felt that the river water this time was not as cold as the previous times.
It may be that his body is getting used to the temperature, he thought subconsciously.
Then, at the next moment, some information naturally emerged in Gaode's consciousness:
[After being in the cold water for a long time, you begin to adapt to the current environment, and your cold resistance in the water increases by 0.1%, your sensitivity to the water flow increases by 0.1%, and your oxygen uptake in the water increases by 0.1%].
What the hell? Gothe was stunned for a moment.
Hence, he reacted suddenly.
【Adaptive】!
It is the specialty [Adaptive] that he awakened when he rose to the level.
This is the role of [Adaptive].
Gothe thought it might take a long time before he could discover the effect of [Adaptive].
Unexpectedly, just one day later, the secret of expertise has been solved.
The so-called "quickly adapting to any environment" turns out to be this.
Adapting to the environment is the instinct of every living thing.
The focus of his expertise lies in this "speed".
Adapt to any environment, so in the cold river bottom full of undercurrents, the cold resistance, water flow sensitivity and oxygen uptake are improved.
Then in a hot environment, what should be improved is heat resistance
If I am in a magic-poor environment, will my ability to absorb magic power be improved?
Gaode’s mind opened up instantly and he suddenly came up with many ways to use [Adaptive].
Some of them are obvious, but some need to be verified.
But in short, the vast world of [Adaptive] has been revealed in front of Gothe.
This is a feat with unlimited possibilities, both in terms of upper limit and expansion.
Although there are no specific indicators that can be used to judge the level of expertise.
But Gaode can now confidently affirm that [Adaptive] is definitely at the level of super expertise.
While Gaode was working hard to collect clams in the water under Coolie Cliff under the supervision of the staff, the number of people gathered outside the rune workshop also increased.
But the increase in manpower did not allow for commendable progress in cracking the magic circle.
It was not until the arrival of Quincy Urser, a senior second-level rune master, that things began to get on track.
There are two ways to break the formation.
One is to destroy the magic circle violently, and the other is to use runes to solve the runes.
The magic circle is actually composed of compound runes composed of basic runes, and has its own magic flow trajectory.
You only need to find the key nodes and draw the corresponding runes to offset the original runes, thereby cutting off the flow of magic power, and the magic circle will naturally become ineffective.
The great road leads to simplicity.
The simpler the principle is, the more difficult it is to actually operate it.
The method used by Quincy Urser today is the most brainless exhaustive method.
Try each node one by one.
The magic circle in the rune workshop is, in the final analysis, just a protective and warning magic circle. It is not offensive and is unmanned.
In this case, the brainless exhaustive method can be regarded as an efficient method to break the formation.
The progress of breaking the formation is advancing at a slow but steady pace.
It is only a matter of time before the rune workshop is opened.
If you are lucky, go faster, if you are not lucky, go slower.
The overall situation has been decided.
The Vice Chairman became cheerful.
Although the young student was a variable and made the situation a little more complicated, that was all.
That student named Gao De has the advantage of being young, but he also loses because of his youth, so some of his ideas are still too naive.
His persistence will have no effect in the face of the strong will of the college.
Can't keep silent about anything, and lose his own future because of it.
———Having followed Sher Ian for so many years, the Vice Chairman knows the dean’s character very well.
That is a person who is determined to retaliate for his anger and is extremely petty.
Don't look at the dean who showed nothing after reporting the situation.
But the Vice Chairman understood that in Scheer's mind, Gothe had already been blacklisted.
As the dean of the college, Shel Ian has so many ways to embarrass a student that there is no need to list them.
A sharp, ear-piercing siren suddenly sounded in the corridor outside the rune workshop.
People who were originally immersed in the complicated runes stopped what they were doing and raised their heads blankly, not knowing why.
Their faces were full of doubts and uneasiness.
What happened?
The next moment, in the astonished eyes of everyone, the magic circle they were working hard to attack shone with fierce light.
Like an awakened giant beast, flashing with various colors of light crazily.
These lights are intertwining, spinning and jumping.
"Stay away!" Quincy Urser, who was in charge of everything, saw this scene, his face changed, and he shouted loudly.
The people on the field did not know the specific situation, but they subconsciously backed away after hearing this.
Immediately afterwards, a deafening roar sounded.
The entire rune workshop seemed to be shaken by an invisible force.
The runes on the wall began to peel off, making a crackling sound.
There was an anxious and chaotic atmosphere in the air.
Immediately afterwards, there was a series of fierce explosions.
Every explosion is accompanied by strong fluctuations of magic power, impacting everything around it.
Some people were affected by this magic wave, staggering or even falling to the ground.
Fortunately, the magic circle was not very aggressive and not fatal enough. In addition, the people present were at least level 1 mages, who were able to react and cast [Shield Technique], so no casualties were caused.
Finally, with a loud noise, the entire magic circle collapsed completely.
The light dissipated, and the door of the rune workshop also collapsed.
The rune workshop that they worked so hard to open is now open to everyone's eyes.
But
The once orderly scene in the rune workshop has been completely overturned. There is a mess everywhere, and the finely carved rune diagrams and rune slates are torn apart.
The rune pen and magic ink that were once used to draw runes are nowhere to be seen at this moment.
Those carefully arranged barriers and energy guidance devices were torn to pieces by the explosion shock wave.
The originally complex and delicate runes on the surrounding walls were all blurred at the moment, leaving only a few that were barely legible.
And the mountains of information and notes containing He Xi's hundreds of years of hard work in the workroom were melted into powder by the intense energy fluctuations.
