Chapter 432 Crystallization
The early morning sun pierced the mist, casting amber light spots on the stone pavement in Phoenix
Dozens of three-story stone buildings, arranged in an orderly manner, glowed with a cold luster in the morning light.
There is an excellent distance between buildings, and nearly ten huge squares (playgrounds) are set up.
This is Phoenix No. 1 Middle School, which is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Education.
In the classroom, children of all sizes are running around.
They wore rough-made animal skin clothing, the boys had bells made of antlers hanging around their waists, and the girls wore animal hair headscarves.
In such a cold temperature, these children are full of energy, jumping up and down between the tables and shouting.
They are a group of very ill-educated children.
In the last row of the classroom, Anna looked out of place quietly looking at the book in her hand.
In the past, Anna has always been regarded as a naughty child. Anyway, she is definitely not comparable to her sister Elsa.
But compared with these children, Anna realized how well-behaved she was.
Of course, this is not surprising.
After all, these children are all common people and have never received any orthodox education.
The life style of primitive tribes has created their rough and informal character.
There were also several children, who glanced at Anna from time to time with curious and eager eyes.
They wanted to talk to Anna.
But Anna’s good looks, which she inherited from the royal family’s fine bloodline, and her temperament, which was completely different from their own, as a result of growing up in a royal environment, made them feel ashamed of themselves.
In addition, they all know that Anna's sister is the "office director" and one of the most powerful people in Phoenix.
What's more important is that when get out of class is over, like now, Anna will always hold a book there and look through it. They occasionally glance at the content of the book once or twice, but they can't understand anything at all.
The combination of these many factors made them very awe of Anna and they did not dare to get close to Anna.
But children’s instinctive yearning and pursuit of beautiful things made them subconsciously approach Anna, trying to find a reason to talk to her.
Contradictory and reasonable.
At this moment, a crisp bell suddenly rang from outside the classroom and spread throughout the school.
Clearly it was just the most ordinary big clock, but it seemed to be an extraordinary object with a spell cast on it. It instantly silenced the school that was noisy just a second ago.
Those children who were running around to vent their great energy seemed to have heard some alarm and ran to their seats as fast as they could.
In less than ten seconds, everyone sat down in their seats, with their bodies straight and their hands neatly stacked on the table.
If other people see this change, they will definitely be surprised.
Anna was very calm.
Because this kind of scene happens nearly ten times a day, she has long been accustomed to it.
After about half a minute, a young man pushed open the heavy curtain made of animal skins and wool and walked in.
He first looked around the classroom to make sure that no students were absent, then he cleared his throat and whispered softly: "Good morning, classmates."
"Mr. Said, good morning!" All the students in the teacher, including Anna, shouted in unison.
“Today’s lesson is still shadow class.” Said smiled slightly, and then took out a box from his arms.
Open the box, which contains an oval stone about the size of your palm.
Said holds the shadow stone in his hand and inputs magic power into it in reverse.
The next moment, the flowing silver texture in the shadow stone suddenly glowed with dazzling light, just like what you see after opening a treasure chest in a novel.
These rays of light intertwined and soon gathered into vivid patterns in the sky.
First, a blackboard came into view, with neat Ace text written on it: "Introduction to the Ace Language - Chapter 2 Writing of Eswin"
Then, a middle-aged man wearing an old robe appeared on the screen and began to talk to everyone.
"Dear students, I am your teacher Jonathan. Today, everyone will continue to follow me to learn the writing of Eswin in the second chapter. Let's review the key points of the previous get out of class. I wonder if the students have reviewed in time after class."
Said watched this scene silently, with some emotion in his heart.
Teacher Jonathan is becoming more and more proficient, but he still remembers that when he first started recording video lessons, Teacher Jonathan was so uncomfortable that he almost couldn't even speak.
About an hour later, the clanging bell rang again.
The light and shadow floating in the front of the classroom also disappeared.
Said collected the photo stone, put it solemnly into the box, and then said to all the children in the classroom: "Classmates, school is over, go home and have lunch quickly."
"Thank you, Mr. Said." The children said politely.
Said nodded and slowly left the classroom.
The next moment, the classroom became noisy again, everyone was chatting with their friends, and they ran out happily.
Anna, on the other hand, slowly sorted out her notes and the book that other students thought was no different from a sacred book. She put it in a small bag given to her by her sister, then got up and walked out.
"Anna" She had only taken a few steps when a timid voice suddenly came from behind her.
Anna looked back and saw a girl who was slightly thinner than a northerner looking at her cautiously.
Anna thought for a while and remembered the other person's name. It seemed to be Pearl. She was not a member of the Zhenbing tribe, but an orphan taken in by the guardian of the snowfield who was removed by her brother.
"Is there something wrong?" Anna hesitated for a moment, then said with a pause.
She can't speak Aisi very well, which is the main reason why she is often taciturn.
Come on, those classmates all speak so fast that Anna’s poor Ace language makes it impossible to understand what they are saying, let alone participate in it.
"I heard from the teacher that your lingua franca is very good, but there is something I don't understand. Can I ask you?"
Pearl deliberately slowed down her speech, as if she was afraid that Anna would be dissatisfied, and quickly added: "The teacher Jonathan who teaches Ace language is my teacher. If you don't understand Ace language, you can ask me."
After finishing speaking in one breath, Pearl looked at Anna nervously, as if waiting for trial.
"Deal." Anna smiled
With the joy of making new friends, Anna, who had just returned to the door, saw Gothe and her sister Elsa standing at the door.
"Brother!" She immediately let out a cry of joy and trotted to Gothe.
Gaode picked her up easily.
"Sister said you came back several days ago" Anna expressed her dissatisfaction.
"There are a lot of things to be busy with, and I really can't get away," Gothe explained. Faced with Anna's "dissatisfaction", he quickly changed the subject: "I came here to check your learning results first."
Anna is currently the only person besides him who has come into contact with the Six Laws of Hosea.
Joseph's Six Laws focus on understanding.
Anna has not received relevant education before, so her thoughts have not yet been finalized, and she has a good acceptance of this kind of subversive law.
Second, her talent point is already focused on this, and there is almost no obstacle to understanding it.
However, the essence of the new rune science is just to streamline a lot of work on runes through calculation, which is equivalent to updating the tools.
But the knowledge of runes is still the foundation and indispensable, equivalent to raw materials.
If you want to create a finished product (rune array), no matter how advanced the tools are, how can you do it without raw materials?
Anna's talent in calculation has been tested, but her talent in runes is still unknown.
This will take time to verify.
Hence Gothe made an appointment with Anna to check her homework when he comes back next time.
He did not forget it.
Anna raised her eyebrows and groaned.
She even brings teaching materials to school, which shows that she is not afraid of the high moral test due to her daily hard work.
"It seems you are very confident." Gothe said with a smile.
At first, because I am not a mage, I cannot continue to learn runes, otherwise I will be like my sister, wasting so much time on these rigid things, and in the end I will learn nothing." Hearing this, Gao De silently glanced at Aisha who was standing aside.
It seems that this seemingly very capable office manager’s talent in runes is completely opposite to that of her sister.
However, seeing this, Gothe was almost certain that Anna's talent in runes must not be bad, otherwise she wouldn't be so confident.
"Stop, stop, stop, don't rush to be proud, don't wait until you fail the test, it will be embarrassing." Elsa quickly interrupted Anna's "exposed shortcomings".
Anna, who was originally chattering, suddenly became quiet.
It can be seen that she is still in awe of Aisha.
An hour later.
Faced with Anna's big eyes and Elsa's attention, Gothe nodded silently.
"Passed the assessment."
He expected that Anna's rune talent was not bad, but he never imagined that it would be so good that it could be compared with her calculation talent.
Double genius.
This made an idea in Gothe's heart become firmer, and his eyes were full of light when he looked at Anna.
But considering that Aisha was by his side, Gothe chose to restrain his praise.
Gaode shook the Ivy Spirit Dew in his hand.
Ding dong ding dong.
A crisp ding-dong sound came out, and the translucent green liquid rose and fell with golden light spots.
"Lord Flora, how's the matter?"
"There are still six medicinal properties left." Flora frowned.
"Lord Flora, there is no need to worry, just look for it slowly. There is no rush. It doesn't matter even if you can't find it in the end. It's just a try." Gao De reassured.
Flora still frowned.
The little man has always been very strong.
"I'm going to drink the Ivy Spirit Dew. Flora should have remembered all the medicinal properties that make up it, right?" Gothe asked again.
"Of course, Lady Flora is very smart!"
"I naturally know this. After all, except Lady Flora, who else has this ability to directly deduce the formula based on the potion." Gothe said sincerely.
At the Ocean Festival, after the potion master's performance of mixing potions, Flora showed how valuable her natural ability is in mixing potions:
She can identify all the medicinal properties in the raw materials, and can accurately sense the state of the potion when it is mixed, and how many doses of raw materials need to be added to make it the final product.
Gothe was thinking at that time that according to this principle, if Flora was given a bottle of magic potion, she should also be able to judge what kind of raw materials were needed to prepare the bottle of magic potion and how much dosage was needed.
That is to work backwards from the formula based on the finished product.
It was just a guess at the time.
After returning to the North, Gothe used Ivy Spirit Dew as a test product and asked Flora to try to reverse the formula.
The result is that she can really do it.
With her own natural ability, Flora could accurately identify at a glance which medicinal properties Ivy Spirit Dew is composed of and what proportion each of them occupies.
So just finding all the raw materials with these medicinal properties is equivalent to launching the magic potion formula of Ivy Spirit Dew.
It just has limitations.
She only gave the medicinal properties, not the clear names of the raw materials.
And it is her innate ability to identify the medicinal properties in raw materials, which cannot be copied by others.
Hence, if you want to find raw materials with these medicinal properties, you can only have Flora look at them slowly.
There is no doubt that the efficiency is extremely low.
According to Flora, Ivy Spirit Dew is composed of nine medicinal properties.
Up to now, only three of the medicinal properties have been found, which are contained in ice moss, edelweiss roots, and glacial bog bugs.
A raw material sample library must be established to facilitate Flora in deciphering the potion formula in the future.
Of course, this is a matter for the future, and the priority is not high for the time being.
After sending Flora away, Gothe also left the room and went to the core spiritual land of Phoenix, where the Ice Jade Sycamore is located.
There are many things to do when returning to the north this time, but the most important thing is his promotion.
The concentration of magic power in the core spiritual land is slowly increasing as the ice jade phoenix tree upgrades and gathers magic power.
Although there is still a long way to go before advancing to the sixth-level spiritual land, the concentration of magic power has already increased by a large amount compared to before.
If there is a magic meter, the magic concentration value for coming here must be over 25,000.
Such a concentration of magic power is actually a killing blow for promotion to the second ring. It is too sufficient.
Hunting the [Blizzard] on his back, Sunaifa has already been waiting here.
"Sorry to trouble you." Gothe nodded slightly to Sunaifa.
"My king is too polite."
She wants to "protect the law" for Gaode to prevent Gaode from encountering external interference during the promotion process.
A first-level mage rises to a higher level, and is protected by a fourth-level mage.
Even those noble children, few have this kind of treatment.
Coupled with the assistance of top-level magic pills for leveling up, Gaode has extremely high confidence in his leveling up.
Sitting cross-legged under the ice jade sycamore tree, he reviewed the key points of raising the ring in his mind. After confirming that he had not missed anything, he took out the Ivy Spirit Dew.
Without any hesitation, just finish it in one go.
The cool medicinal liquid with the sweet taste of plants enters the body and falls into the mana pool in the lower abdomen.
Gulu gulu!
The powerful but mild medicinal power spread quickly, like adding fuel to a fire, causing the 60 drops of liquid mana in the mana pool to boil.
It was like a bit of stone thrown into a pool exploding into thousands of ripples. The gurgling sound mixed with the crisp sound of exploding bubbles made Gothe's eardrums hurt.
The moment the medicine reaches the mana pool, the "Aoki Immortality Sutra" that has long been familiar to the heart has already started to operate.
The liquid mana cultivated from the "Green Wood Sutra of Immortality" has a bright green color, which is somewhat similar to the Ivy Spirit Dew.
In fact, they are not only similar, they are of the same genus.
Given this connection, Gaode's absorption of Ivy Spiritual Dew is surprisingly good.
The medicinal power is constantly integrated into his liquid mana, causing the original green color to change towards a darker emerald.
The first level of promotion to the second-level mage, the crystallization of mana begins!
