Chapter 19 Life is like chess
At this time, the system elf suddenly ran out.
"Dear host, harmless hallucinations and unknown laws have been detected. Need me to filter for you?"
Harmless hallucinations?
"Filter!" Duke replied decisively.
The landscape in front of him changed, and Duke was still in front of a chessboard and a large number of chess pieces. But the shape of each chess piece has changed completely, turning into a vivid stickman-like body support.
"What about not filtering?" The scene in the horizon changed again, and it changed to the Karazhan chess game that Duke was most familiar with.
On Duke's side, in front of him were heavily armed and brightly armored Stormwind guards. The blue head tassel and the shield with a gold lion head pattern on a blue background give Duke an inexplicable sense of heroism.
"Wow, can it change with my imagination?"
This kind of fantasy illusion is not comparable to the immature 3D stereoscopic game technology before the time travel.
After seeing through it, Duke lost the initial shock and became a little excited.
There are six types of pieces, although they are still divided into Alliance and Horde as Duke intended. For some reason, it's different from the setting in the Karazhan chess level in the game.
The first is a pawn, and the whole front row is there. On the Alliance's side are the Stormwind soldiers, and the corresponding is the armor-clad tribal infantry.
The second type is horses, two on each side. The Alliance is a heavily armored knight riding a fully armed war horse under his crotch, and on the tribe side is a wolf knight wielding a huge mace.
The third type is phase, two on each side. The Alliance is two Ice Mages, and the Horde is two Doomsday Mages.
The fourth type is a taxi, two on each side. The Alliance is two priests who can add blood, and on the tribal side is the shaman.
The fifth one is a bit strange, in the back position, on the Alliance's side is the Guardian of Azeroth, the chief court master of the Stormwind Kingdom, Medivan, and the mage on the tribe's side is blurred.
The sixth one has nothing to say, the king, and the alliance is King Ryan, who is dressed in silver armor and wields a giant hammer. On the tribal side, the black hand of the tribal chieftain is armed with an axe.
That's when the guy who called himself the Administrator 'Raven' spoke.
"Hey, hey, hey, little guy, didn't scare, did you?"
Duke pouted, "No, it's scared. ”
"I don't think you have a scared look. All right...... Don't take this little game to heart, it's just a little bad fun of mine. Of course, your performance in this game will directly affect your status and living conditions in the Royal Family Magic Academy. So, if you can, I still hope you can give it your all. ”
It sounds like Raven was talking about what kind of benefits he would give Duke with his status as a dorm keeper. But there are many hidden pitfalls here.
Duke didn't say anything, and a mysterious smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Okay then." I don't think you want me to play a normal game of chess with you, do you?
The raven had almost his entire face covered in a hood of shadows, and a knowing smile spread across his face that could only be seen from his chin.
"This is the Magic Academy, and a few nerds who are playing regular chess with my companions will be living next to the toilet for the next year. ”
"Oh, that's a shame. ”
Allow Duke to gloat for a second of silence for those guys.
"Okay, you're looking at the Ultimate Edition. First, you have to prove that you are qualified to be a pawn on this board. ”
In Duke Vision, a huge golden scroll opened. There are a number of formulas written in lingua franca. And above the reels, a huge hourglass appears out of thin air.
The meaning is self-evident, when the hourglass ends, the reel closes.
Almost immediately, Duke let the system elves do the work.
"System Elf, analyze it now!"
"Understood, my host...... After preliminary testing, this is a simplified formula for the [Wisdom Enhancement], [Ice Arrow], and [Blizzard] spell models. Formula rubbing...... The spell model has been documented, and the full spell formula is being reverse-engineered. ”
Duke knew right away that this was a great opportunity!
It seems that this is also a thing that looks like a game, but it is actually a test in the hospital!
The test party does not seek to see how strong the apprentice is or how many spells he can master, but actually wants to see how strong the trial student is adaptable.
Although this method of using spells is almost to put a pistol in the hands of the trialist, who only needs to pull the trigger, being able to pull the trigger does not mean that he can hit the target, and hitting the target does not mean that he can hit the effective part. Even if you hit it, you have to look at the timing, the way, and the effect.
How to use it, how to use it, all test the ability of the trial student to adapt, the ability to adapt to the elements, and the imagination and understanding of magic.
It's no exaggeration to say that it's an all-encompassing magical test!
For most trial students, the sand in the hourglass is billions of times more precious than gold. Many people also realize that this is an excellent opportunity to get spells for free, and even if it is a simplified version, it will make their future magic path many times smoother.
Every candidate stared greedily at the scroll.
Only Duke is the most special one.
He simply glanced at the half-human-high scroll and lowered his head in deep thought.
And only he himself knows that he is not contemplative at all, but is suffering from the information bombardment of the system elves.
"Discover the Spell Model [Wisdom Enhancement], which can temporarily top up your outstanding IQ, and temporarily put more spell models into your poor brain. Rejoice - 2 points of intelligence at level 1 [Wisdom Enhancement] can temporarily increase your mana by 20 points, temporarily meeting the minimum intelligence requirement to master [Blizzard]. ”
"[Ice Arrow]: Sao Nian, do you want your opponent to eat a popsicle made of your footwash water?Level 1 [Ice Arrow] can fully meet your needs!"
"[Blizzard]: Do you want your opponent to mess up in the cold wind? Do you want your opponent to freeze into snow in the heat of summer?Level 1 [Blizzard]-You deserve it!"
Seeing the introduction of the first few advertising slogans, for a moment, Duke had the urge to let the system elf live broadcast to eat Xiang.
"What the hell is this? Please, don't explain magic to me like that, okay?"
"Oh, that's a shame, I pulled this way of telling from the information in your brain. Obviously, this way of speaking accounts for 70% of your daily conversations, and I think you'll like it. Why are you complaining about me?" the system elf retorted to Duke in the most serious tone.
Well, Duke was defeated.
