Chapter 131 Apprentice and Carpenter
"This is the first lesson. 3. As soon as possible, I will not explain any advanced magic, but how you should learn at work, work at study, and slowly become a qualified magician."
In the library, the apprentices were in groups, sitting behind four tables, while Green stood under the blackboard to teach the apprentices.
"The mage has three major indicators: intelligence, magic, and knowledge! All the mage's behavior is to improve these three attributes. When these three indicators reach a certain level, the mage's upgrade and advancement will come naturally." Green wrote three words on the blackboard and left a blank space behind. "Intellect refers to the brain's logical thinking ability. Warriors exercise their bodies through combat and exercise. So how should the mage exercise their brain? Does anyone know?" Green looked at the students below the podium.
"Exercise by reading?" a teenager raised his hand.
"Present your hand next time before answering the question. I'll call it and then answer it. Please stand up when answering." Green paused, "Okay, do it again. Raise your hand." Green said to the apprentice.
The apprentice raised his hand obediently.
"Tom, answer." Green called out.
The boy stood up: "Exercise by reading books."
"Very good. Sit down." Green motioned Tom to sit down.
Tom sat shyly back on the chair.
Green wrote a symbol on the roster.
"Reading, calculation, thinking, etc., as long as the behavior that can move the brain and cause burden on the brain can exercise the brain. The greater the burden on the brain, the better the exercise effect, but if the intensity is too high, it may hurt the brain... Mona, send this to everyone." Green pointed to the twelve iron wood boards printed with magic circles at his feet, and asked the assistant teacher Mona to send it to the students.
"Mona~" The Mona held up the wooden boards happily and gave them to each table.
Green: "I think you have seen the subject task at the entrance of the library. Now, you pick up the magic array in your hands and carefully observe the magic array on it to see if you can see anything."
The apprentices picked up the wooden boards and observed the magic circles on them.
"Have you discovered anything?" Green asked after a while.
No one spoke in the apprentice.
"Then I'll change my question. Do you feel discomfort?"
This time, an apprentice raised his hand after hesitating for a while.
"Jerry." Green pointed his name.
"Teacher, I feel a little dizzy after watching it for a long time."
"Not bad! I will feel dizzy after watching it for a long time. When people observe the magic text, they will try to understand the meaning of the magic text, which will cause a certain burden on the brain. If they do not have enough intelligence or read it for too long, they will feel dizzy, blurred, and their attention will be reduced. Of course, not only the magic text, but also the ordinary text will feel uncomfortable after reading it for a long time. So your first task is to get used to the magic text and carve the magic circle sent to you." Greendton paused, "Next, I will talk about some carving requirements."
Green picked up a wooden board, hung it on the blackboard, pointed to the magic circle on the wooden board, and drew a set of data on the blackboard.
"All lines on the magic circle are 1mm wide and 1mm deep, and the error accuracy cannot exceed 10%. That is to say, the width and depth of the lines must be kept between 0.9 and 1.1mm. If one accuracy exceeds the level, the entire magic circle will be considered scrapped!"
Hearing Green's words, all the apprentices couldn't help but take a breath of air conditioning: "Depth 1mm? Accuracy required 10%?"
Green and the apprentices thought for a while, and understood the difficulty of this requirement, then continued to speak: "The price of each magic array is 0.5 gold coins. If two magic arrays are scrapped, then even if the carving is completed, there will be only credits and no reward. Within one month, students who have completed the carving of the magic array will complete the apprentice assessment, and those who have failed to complete the assessment if three magic arrays are scrapped..." Greenton paused, "Leave by himself. People who can't even be careful are not suitable to be a mage."
Hearing Green's words, the apprentices couldn't help swallowing and felt a sensation.
"In addition to practicing your intellectual attributes, carving magic circles also requires certain strength and carpentry skills. So in the afternoon, I invited Tracy, the carpenter in the town, to teach you woodworking courses. In addition, the strength training cannot be put down. Starting tomorrow, from 7 to 9 in the morning, the physical exercise time is the time, and Civina will be responsible for exercising your strength and physical fitness."
Woodworking class? Physical exercise? Are we really here to be magic apprentices?
Many apprentices couldn't help but feel a strange feeling in their hearts.
"Hey? I feel that the magician and the warrior are quite similar..." A dwarf apprentice grabbed his beard and a smile appeared on his face. The dwarf was still very confident about his physical strength and strength.
Soon, the morning class ended. The afternoon was a woodworking course...
The apprentices quickly got busy and began to deal with wood every day.
In the morning, the apprentices need to receive two hours of physical training, and the free time afterwards, they need to self-study some courses and homework that Greene explained and Green only teaches two classes a week, so most of the time, the apprentices need to study by themselves. If they encounter problems, Greene will answer them uniformly during class. In the afternoon, the apprentices need to pick up the carpenter ruler, chisel, and wooden knife to start their daily carpentry career...
In the apprentice dormitory, Tom looked at the calluses on his hands and a trace of confusion appeared on his face: "Is this really a magic apprentice training? Why do I think it's weird?"
Tom's roommate Jerry was holding a knife and was carving a wood carving: "Master Green is a genius, and his training method is naturally different from your grandfather's training method."
"Okay." Tom fell head on the bed.
In another dormitory.
The dwarf was looking at the wood in his hand with annoyance: "Ah! Ah! Ah! This job is so infuriating! I would rather use an axe to chop wood than use a knife to do such a job!"
"I thought carving was useless before, but now it seems that the instructor's course makes some sense." The halfling played with his carving with a smile, "Come on, didn't you say you want to be the first dwarf mage? There are not many mages in this world who are willing to teach dwarf magic."
...
Carving is not an easy task, not to mention that the accuracy requirements are so high! The punishment of getting out of here after failing three times also makes the apprentices dare not take action easily. However, there are always some people who are not afraid of death!
A week later, when Green appeared in class again, three apprentices who were more confident in their carpentry abilities handed over the magic circle he had carved.
