Chapter 40 Furnace Mountains
"Thoughts on Bubble Technique?"
In the next few days, Lei Luo studied the "Basic Poison Formula" and learned the basic knowledge about poisons, but he couldn't help but recall the ignorance of the stern fat instructor he faced when he was rating elite points. helpless.
"I talk about bubble art as the first academic thing in my life, so what is its future?"
When Lei Luo was a child, he also imagined that he would become an omnipotent mage, calling for wind and rain, covering the sky with one hand, punishing evil and promoting good, and upholding justice and traveling across the continent. But he almost never thought about his first An academic would have this ability to blow bubbles!
Senior Sister Bai Ling once said that an outstanding scholar who studies the mysteries of evolution not only has the innate ability to copy biological specimens, but also completes evolution on this basis. Through wisdom, he surpasses the specimens on the test bench and masters academic studies. Far more powerful than specimens!
Thoughts are like a mess.
Lei Luo had no intention of studying the "Basic Poison Formula" anymore. He was so upset that he casually cast a bubble and poked it with his hand.
Snapped!
The bubble technique exploded, but Lei Luo seemed completely unaware of the sharp pain on his palm. He looked towards the painful area and saw some bruises and redness on his arm, as if he had been hit by a willow branch.
But, that’s all!
"After all, it's just basic academics."
Now, Lei Luo finally understood why Aoun, who mastered the fireball technique, was so nervous when facing the Black Demon Wolf mercenary group on the way to St. Granburg.
Similar to the bubble technique, the basic fireball technique is also at the zero level, and its status is as embarrassing as my current bubble technique!
Using the zero-level fireball technique in actual combat would probably only cause some burns at most. The reason why the Black Wolf Mercenary Group chose to retreat was more due to their instinctive timidity towards the "magician".
Even if they are both enlightenment scholars, due to different academic research time and different levels of academic knowledge, their strengths are also very different.
The weak, like Lei Luo now, only mastered a basic academic and were vulnerable to a single attack, while the powerful enlightenment scholars had completed first-level academics and even evolved, coupled with some precious magical props, their strength was unimaginable.
According to the plan, Lei Luo was going to start poison research, because whether he was evolving the bubble technique or trying to study the "Self-Control" left by the star core, he needed to study poisons as the basis for enlightenment. But now Lei Luo feels that he must It’s time to start defining the future of bubble technology.
With this in mind, Lei Luo looked at the time, rubbed the dark circles under his eyes due to hard work these days, finished his morning reading, and walked to the classroom of Class 11.
Jingle Bell!
The school bell rang. Xiao Kang stepped on the bell and came to the classroom. After looking around the classroom, he saw Lei Luo and came to sit next to Lei Luo with a smile.
"What are you so happy about?"
Lei Luo asked casually, but Xiao Kang said: "Hey, I got the news yesterday that my grandfather passed away."
"ah?"
Lei Luo turned his head in shock, confirmed that Xiao Kang had an excited expression, and said in surprise: "Grandpa passed away? Aren't you sad?"
"What a good thing! Although my grandfather has many heirs, fortunately the fiefdom is large enough. He has also made a lot of benefits over the years, and the inheritance he left me is not bad."
Seeing Lei Luo's stunned look, Xiao Kang immediately understood Lei Luo's thoughts and said with a smile: "Haha, don't worry, my grandfather is a staunch believer in the God of Light. He has given a lot of gold coins to the church over the years, and his soul will also go to the church after he dies. I have gone to heaven to enjoy myself, and maybe I can inherit a new inheritance when I get there."
Lei Luo had black lines on his forehead.
If such words were spoken from his own mouth, if Master Gu Bo knew about it, he would definitely kill him with his own hands.
Soon, instructor Jenny walked into the classroom and started a new day of classes.
It was still an adventure from her youth, and many colleges in the audience listened with interest.
While listening to the adventure stories of mentor Jenny, Lei Luo asked Xiao Kang in a low voice: "Are you interested in going out together to collect specimens and strive to contribute points to the elite list?"
"Uh... not interested."
Xiao Kang pursed his lips and said, "Look over there, Bai Xing didn't come to class today. He must have gone out in a group to collect specimens!"
Lei Luo glanced quietly and saw that there were already a few students in the classroom, and there were a few less students today. He couldn't help but said, "Have you gone to the Magic Eagle Forest?"
"How can it be!"
Xiao Kang shouted: "Demon Eagle Forest? That is a place where at least third-year students are qualified to take risks. With her strength, should she go to the Demon Eagle Forest and deliver rations to the monsters there? She should go to the Furnace Mountains." "
Furnace Mountains?
Lei Luo had heard of the Furnace Mountains, which was a group of mountains not far from Fort Saint-Grand and on the border with the Principality of Zealand.
It is said that in ancient times, the Furnace Mountains were probably a sea. Later, with geological changes, volcanoes erupted and formed a series of mountains.
Scholars have excavated a large number of saline-alkali ores and marine life fossil specimens from the mountains. At the junction of the Principality of Glenland and the Principality of Zealand, there is an inland salt sea, and there are some strange mutant creatures living nearby, which is the nature of Glenland. An important specimen collection place for freshmen in the college.
Hearing that someone in the class started to go to the Furnace Mountains to collect natural specimens, Lei Luo could no longer suppress his inner impulse and said in a low voice: "I also want to go out to collect specimens. Are you really not interested? We can form a team!"
"ah?"
Xiao Kang snorted: "Forget it, I don't want to take risks. Anyway, I don't plan to compete for the elite list. I might as well buy some mutant specimens from merchants or senior students and hand them over, and I'll get a better score. Hehehehe, I recently discovered that the arena business is very profitable, and I plan to invest in it!"
"Arena?"
Similar to the Natural Academy and the Mercenary Association, the arenas of the major principalities are also independent forces.
Lei Luo was surprised and said: "You... are going to invest in the arena?"
Xiao Kang rolled his eyes and said: "I'm also thinking about my own future. If I can't defeat that girl in my life, the old man at home will be so angry that he won't let me go back. I might as well donate a title to the church. Ah, at worst, I can build a new family by myself."
…
After class, Lei Luo came to the door of Class 4, Grade 1 and waited.
"Ornn!"
Wearing a black academic uniform, Aoun was joking with a few friends and walking out of the classroom. Suddenly he heard someone calling his name. He turned around and saw that it was Lei Luo whom he hadn't seen for many days. His eyes suddenly lit up.
"Ornn, your friend?"
A female student with red wavy short hair looked at Lei Luo in the classroom corridor and asked.
"Well, wait a moment."
Aoun came to Lei Luo and complained: "Where have you been these days? Since the academy discovered the wizard remnants, the church has taken over the security, and people are panicked. I saw the fighting happened over there at your house, so I went over to see it. Who knows? But you disappeared, I almost thought you were killed!"
Lei Luo was quite embarrassed and apologized: "Some accidents did happen that day and I was seriously injured. Fortunately, I was saved by my mentor."
"ah!"
Aoun looked Lei Luo up and down, and said in shock: "Did I hear correctly? You actually encountered that terrible wizard and survived? Now the academy says that the wizard who sneaked into the academy is probably A great wizard king! Hey, tell me, what does the wizard look like?"
"How do I know? I just saw a black shadow. I was almost scared to death. I woke up at my mentor's house. I don't know how I survived until now."
Lei Luo was afraid for a while.
Recalling the brief battle between the mentor and the wizard, they could easily destroy a large area of bluestone flooring on the road, and the aftermath would shatter the houses on both sides of the road. This was just a tentative contact between the two parties. If they really fought desperately, the consequences would be unimaginable!
The college is still under church martial law, so there are many things that should not be discussed too much.
Aoun glanced at his classmates waiting for him not far away, and then at the Bright Knight patrolling the streets in the distance. He stopped talking about sensitive things about wizards, patted Lei Luo on the shoulder and said: "Haha, come on then. What do you want from me?"
"I'm temporarily staying at my tutor's house. It's not convenient for outsiders. If you have anything, you can come to Class 11 to see me! I came here this time to ask you about the points contribution to the elite list. I want to, before the end of the quarter, Let’s go to the Furnace Mountains to collect specimens, do you want to come with us?”
Lei Luo asked with expectation.
"Class 11?"
Aoun looked at Lei Luo in surprise.
"If you are in another class, it is better to say that our Class 4 is very competitive with your Class 11 now. I heard that the two students who have contributed the most points are in your class. If our instructors want to be promoted to The grade director of the college is in great need of this qualification.”
With a look of embarrassment, Aoun pursed his lips, raised his eyebrows and whispered: "The red-haired girl over there, her name is Angina, we all call her Fire Phoenix, she now has eighty-eight contribution points, and she ranks first in our class. Her tutor is our counselor, and we have made an appointment to go out together in a few days..."
Aoun didn't say the next words, Lei Luo knew what the other party meant.
Without blaming the other party, Lei Luo sighed slightly, briefly exchanged academic issues with Aoun, and left the door of Class 4.
