Chapter 295 Busy Exam
Luvia only had three exams, so the parchment she got was short. As for Xia De, who took 18 exams at a time, after unfolding the parchment he got, he could almost bundle the orange cat Mia, who was lying quietly on the windowsill at this time, into a sphere and there was still some leftovers.
There is no rest time for the St. Byrence exam. The exam starts at 9:00 am. You can leave after answering the questions, but you can’t leave your seat even if you have a physical need.
Xia De knew this in advance, so from 9 o'clock on Saturday morning, he communicated with her voice in his heart, and at the same time buried himself in writing. In the evening, Miss Louisa asked him to go to the opera house. The 18 exams were not easy. Even though the content of each exam was not much, if he didn’t want to miss the first opportunity to go to the opera house, he would not let up at all.
Luvia got up and left at half past ten, followed by Miss Louisa and Dr. Schneider. Even Priest Augustus, who took 7 subjects, left the room at twelve o'clock in the afternoon, and by that time Shade had finished answering the questions of 10 subjects.
At lunch time, neither the professors nor Shad could eat. The four people who left early, because they had to listen to the professors after the exam, stayed in the No. 1 room next door and waited.
They originally wanted to hold Mia to eat, but Mia lay on the window sill waiting for Shad, and had no intention of leaving with others. In order to let the hungry pet cat eat something earlier, Xia De also accelerated his writing speed again.
His Delarion handwriting was already ugly, and speeding up the writing made the letters more distorted and distorted, but they could probably still be recognized. Shad thought so.
Because it was only a first-grade exam, the content of the exam was simpler than Xia De thought. After a week of serious preparation, coupled with the help of the voice in his head, Xia De, who was used to various exams, finally finished marking the last period on the parchment used for answering the questions at 4:21 p.m.
The dark blue ink soaked the parchment, and the ink stains from the tip of the pen spread due to force.
Even with Xia De's current physical fitness, he still feels his wrists are sore. But after dropping the pen, there was still a smile on his face. Although he couldn't answer every question, Shad was confident that he could pass all the exams.
It is worthwhile to postpone the use of the time key. Only by carefully preparing for the upgrade exam without distraction can you get the smile at this moment.
The four teachers who invigilated the examination also breathed a sigh of relief after sending the parchment scroll away through the pages of the poem manuscript on the doctor's desk. Because the time was too long, everyone took a half-hour break before announcing other things.
The projected people got up and left, and the transparent figures disappeared into the empty room. Xia De picked up Mia who finally stood up from the window sill. The small orange cat was probably very hungry. After being hugged by Xia De, she kept meowing:
"I'll take you to eat something good in a while."
The detective, who was in an unusually good mood, said while stroking the cat.
Leaving the room, pushed open the door next door. The other four people in the group were all present. Miss Louisa was flipping through a book, while Luvia was sitting at the dining table, using cards for divination. Priest Augustus and Dr. Schneider were sitting on the sofa, looking at the newspapers spread out on the coffee table, and talking about taxes.
Seeing Xia De walking over with the cat in his arms, they all stopped what they were doing:
"Shad, how do you feel? Can you pass?"
the doctor asked curiously.
"should be no problem."
He sat down on the sofa, the soft seat made Xia De, who was tired all day, very comfortable:
"what about you?"
"Let Anat divination, I want to see the result."
Priest Augustus said, while Xia De looked at Luvia at the table, and the purple-eyed fortune-teller winked at him playfully:
"Xiade will definitely be fine this time. Although Priest Augustus's score will not be very high, he can pass smoothly. However, the doctor has to worry a little bit."
"Oh, I knew it!"
Dr. Schneider covered his forehead and sighed, while Miss Louisa on the side showed an expression of wanting to ask but not daring to ask, for fear of hearing some bad news.
There was still some food at home, and both Xia De and Mia ate a little to fill their stomachs. Taking advantage of this time, Xia De also heard several other people complaining about the content of the exam. This kind of scene where everyone sits around and complains about the exam makes foreigners feel like they have returned to their hometown.
Although everything is different from the past in the world where steam and mystery coexist, occasionally Xia De can still find traces of his hometown from his life. Now, he is not as enthusiastic as he was when he first came to find a way to go back, but he will never forget where he came from and who he is.
After resting for a while, the five returned to the next room again. The four teachers reappeared on time, and the Thaumaturgy Academy probably had a very unique scoring method, so the report card was sent directly. Instead of showing specific grades, ratings are excellent, above expectations, pass, fail, and terrible.
Among Shade's 18 courses, 11 were excellent, 6 exceeded expectations, and 1 passed. The passing course was "Folklore, Religion and Civilization". This course required more understanding than memorization, so Shad barely passed.
But it is also enough.
"Ahem!"
The five looked down at their transcripts, and Professor Gulliver coughed and reminded them to pay attention:
"The sixth era general calendar 1853 summer exam week is over. First of all, I would like to congratulate all the correspondence ring warlocks. I have read your transcripts. Your team's grades are very good. There is no need for the academy to issue an academic warning. According to the usual practice, I need to remind you Your thing about upgrading—"
"Bill Schneider, the college has received your application for promotion. If you want to be promoted to the sixth grade at the end of the year, you still have half a year to obtain the remaining 30 practical credits. In addition, have you been promoted to the sixth ring?"
"Not yet, but I have already obtained the ceremony materials. Now the basic requirements for the four spirit runes have been met, and I plan to wait until the yellow moon is full moon phase in autumn before being promoted."
The doctor replied, and Professor Gulliver nodded:
"In addition, the academy has received the sample of the [Fake Philosopher's Stone] you submitted. This time you did a very good job. Professor Rutgers, who released the task, is very satisfied. We will communicate about the rewards later. .At the same time, this summer's formal student field practice has been scheduled, and you will be notified of the specific situation before next Saturday. The current plan is that twelve students will go to the Tobesk area, and the local groups will be evenly distributed. Will be in charge of three people."
"No problem, professor."
The doctor said that judging from the tone, the results of "Ether Mechanics" should be really bad.
"Dorothy Louisa, you want to be promoted to the fifth grade at the end of the year, please don't forget that you still have several basic courses. In addition, regarding your fourth grade rating, please communicate with the Folklore Academy in private. "
"No problem Professor."
Miss Blonde Writer also nodded, she had a big smile on her face, it seemed that the ancient text passed smoothly.
"Luvia Anante, regarding the joint training program for the next grade, please remind the Prophet Association to send us the documents as soon as possible. In addition, the School of Astronomy is organizing autumn astrology activities. If you are interested, you can learn about it through the poem manuscript page details."
"Good professor."
Luvia is fine too.
"Rat Augustus, no matter whether you intend to be promoted to the second grade in winter, please inform the academy as soon as possible so that we can arrange the next training plan."
Priest Augustus also nodded.
"Finally Shade Hamilton."
The professor glanced at Xia De:
"According to St. Byrence's regulations, grade promotion can only be done at the end of the winter semester, but after receiving your application, after discussion with the School of History and Miss Denist's recommendation, it is theoretically agreed that you can be promoted to the second grade . You have been promoted from the first ring to the second ring in one month, and this is also a record for you."
Professor Garcia on the side couldn't help but smile. If it wasn't for the inappropriate time to speak, he would have started saying that the students of the School of History should be like this.
"You have passed all the written examinations of the basic courses, and you have passed the review of the practical end-of-course assignments on alchemy and potions. By the way, that ever-burning candle is really good."
It seems that the tuition fees charged by Old John are not intentionally high.
"In addition, although it is agreed in principle that you be promoted to the second grade after the exam week this summer, the rules are the rules, and you will be punished if you violate the rules. Therefore, as a punishment for violations and promotion to the second grade in the summer semester, originally you still need 10 practical credits, now increased to 20. Please complete the remaining 20 practical credits in the first grade before next Saturday, otherwise you will not pass your grade promotion requirements."
Professor Earl Gulliver said very seriously that St. Byrence's school rules are very strict, and you can find ways to bypass some rules, but you must abide by what should be observed.
In fact, the conditions for 20 practical credits are very strict. After all, the doctor spent a month, went through hardships and even almost met the evil **** to complete the [Forged Philosopher's Stone] academy reward, and only got 5 points in total. Theoretically, Xia De can only get 20 points by completing four such difficult tasks, but not only is the difficulty too high, even the time is not enough.
Fortunately, he still has other ways. Originally, he thought that if he was lucky, he could keep the [Endless Mercury Bottle], but now it is definitely not possible. And just this relic is probably not enough for 20 points. It seems that he needs to do other things this week.
"I understand, Professor."
Xia De said, thinking not only to wait for Iluna to come back next Wednesday, but also to see if there are any college tasks that he can complete when he has time.
"Very well, in addition to your studies, the St. Byrence Student Management Office also has a document about the second divine descent event in the Tobesk area in the summer of 1853 in the sixth common calendar. When such a thing happened, The academy did not expect that it has already obtained very detailed information from the Orthodox Church."
The professor turned the page of the document in his hand:
"Because you are correspondence ringers in the Tobesk region, the academy will give you a report to let you know what happened last Thursday. If you think the Tobesk region is no longer suitable for living, you can also ask the group to cross application for area transfer."
"It's not necessary for now."
Dr. Schneider said cautiously, and the professor nodded:
"According to the information you submitted, each person in the group will be rewarded with 5 practice credits. You can be considered to have completely experienced two god-fall incidents, which is more than most professors in the college have experienced in a lifetime."
The information provided by the five people is actually not of much value. The 5 practice credits are not a reward for information, but a unified comfort for the local correspondence ring warlocks. After going through this kind of thing, not being crazy or dying, and being able to tell about the situation that night is an achievement in itself, so it is understandable for the academy to give some unimportant rewards.
In this way, Xia De's task of obtaining 20 credits a week was reduced to 15 credits at once. Although it is still not easy, at least the pressure has been reduced a lot.
"In addition, St. Byrence issued a long-term academy reward mission to the correspondence ring warlocks in Tobesk and surrounding areas to find and provide information about the thirteenth ring warlock 'God Caller'."
Professor Gulliver said that at the same time, the reward order was also sent through the doctor's poem manuscript.
"Professor, are you sure that the summoner is a thirteen-ring magician?"
Luvia asked.
"very sure."
Professor Gulliver nodded, and Luvia glanced at Xia De, who looked at Mia cat lying in front of her. Because I was going to have a big meal at night, I only fed it a small amount of cat food just now. Now the cat lay there in a listless state, but Xia De knew it must be faking it. The wagging tail behind the cat showed that the cat was now in good spirits.
"Although the incident of the gods has passed, the local correspondence ring warlocks still have to be vigilant about the follow-up situation. Although the Orthodox Church has made up its mind to make those lunatics disappear permanently, judging from the situation last Thursday, The church has probably been comfortable for too long, and it can even make such troubles."
Professor Gulliver obviously has some opinions on the Orthodox Church, but it is not very clear. After talking about these things, everything in the exam week is over. Professor Gulliver and the two lecturers encouraged the five members of the group to leave first, while Professor Garcia stayed for dozens of minutes to discuss with Shad about his second-year training plan.
In addition, Professor Garcia had promised to open his personal elective course "Folding Space" to Shade, where he would give lectures on large-scale ritual and thaumaturgic mythos. This time, he came to inform Xia De of the class time. "Folding Space" has four lessons in total, and each lesson has two hours. Classes are scheduled on Monday and Tuesday of the second week of August, and classes start at 6:00 every night, with two classes connected each time.
Shade participates in the course through projection, and after the course is all over, submit a course report within one week as a proof of course completion.
After "Folding Space", Xia De's grades will be used to decide whether to open more elective courses in this college to him.
"Xia De, your talent has been fully demonstrated. The School of History has never been stingy in providing extra help to gifted students. Originally, Mr. Dean of the School of History wanted to come to see you in person, but the New World Something happened on the side, he had to rush to solve it, so I still came to see you. I noticed that it has been a month since your first time travel. Do you have a second time travel? plan?"
Professor Garcia asked.
"Of course, I bought a time key from the year 3002 of the Fifth Era, and I asked Luvia Anat to help divination the time of good luck, and I planned to open it in half a month."
Of course, the report must be submitted after the three explorations have been fully completed. After all, this key is related to the founder of St. Byrence, and Shad needs to confirm which part can be written. Therefore, this report cannot be used to deduct practical credits. After all, even if you want to write and polish it, there is no way to start.
"Year 3002? I remember that nothing happened in that year, at least nothing major happened. It seems that this time is the real poet-level key."
Professor Garcia thought for a while and said that Xia De seemed to have heard this kind of rhetoric, but he did not raise any objections.
"Well, Mr. Hamilton. You are probably the first student in this millennium who can be allowed to violate the rules and upgrade beyond the end of the winter semester. Very good, keep working hard, I think you have the hope to officially enter St. Byrons."
Professor Garcia encouraged, before saying goodbye to Shad. The transparent figure left the chair, and the projection ceremony officially ended.
The stranger let out a long sigh, feeling relaxed all over his body at this moment. I got up and went to the window, opened the curtains of the window, and saw the fiery sunset outside~www.mtlnovel.com~ The daytime on Saturday is finally over, the red light shines on the face, and the midsummer sunset is so hot:
"It takes one month to advance from the first ring to the second ring. According to this speed, in fact, before the age of 30, it is possible for me to be promoted to the 13th ring."
Thinking in my heart, the corner of my mouth couldn't help showing a smile.
[The miracles, blasphemy, enlightenment and whispers of the second ring, do you have any ideas? 】
she asked in her ear.
"I have been reading "The Crazy Light Chaser" for a month, and I can already feel the results in the last few weeks. The story of "Kiss of the Tree" is intensively read with the help of Miss Louisa, and it will end next month Before now, I am afraid there will be progress.”
[These high probabilities are inspirations. 】
"Yes, so I have to think about the other three elements carefully. After a week of rest, I'm about to start a new adventure. Life really can't stop."
PS: I am worried about being accused of water, so this episode ends at once, this chapter is 4K8.
