The Whispering Verses Chapter 294: Busy exam

Luvia only had three exams, so the parchment she got was very short. And Shade, who took 18 exams at once, after unfolding the parchment he got, he could tie the orange cat Mia, who was lying quietly on the window sill, into a ball and still have some leftover.

There is no break in the St. Byrons exam. The exam starts at 9 am. You can leave after answering the questions, but before you finish answering, you cannot leave your seat even if you have physiological needs.

Xia De knew this in advance, so starting from nine o'clock on Saturday morning, he communicated with her voice in his heart and wrote hard at the same time. In the evening, Miss Louisa invited him to go to the opera house. The 18 exams were not easy. Even though each exam did not have much content, he could not relax at all if he did not want to miss the opportunity to go to the opera house for the first time.

Luvia got up and left at half past ten, followed by Miss Louisa and Dr. Schneider. Even Priest Augustus, who took 7 exams, left the room at 12 p.m., by which time Shard had already finished answering the questions in 10 courses.

At lunch time, neither the professors nor Shade had anything to eat. The four people who left early stayed in Room 1 next door to wait because they had to listen to the professors after the exam.

They originally wanted to carry little Mia to eat, but Mia was lying on the window sill waiting for Shade and had no intention of leaving with others. In order to let the hungry pet cat eat earlier, Shade also speeded up his writing speed again.

His Dralion writing was already ugly. He sped up the writing and made the letters more twisted and deformed, but it was probably still legible... or so Shade thought.

Because it is only a first-year exam, the content of the exam is simpler than Shade thought. After a week of careful preparation, coupled with the help of the voice in his head, Shade, who was accustomed to various examinations, finally marked the last period on the parchment paper used to answer the questions at 4:21 in the afternoon.

Dark blue ink soaked into the parchment paper, and the ink stains touched by the pen tip spread with force.

Even with Shade's current physical condition, he still feels sore in his wrists. But after putting down the pen, there was still a smile on his face. Although he failed to answer every question, Shade was confident that he could pass all the exams.

It is worthwhile to postpone the use of the time key. Only by preparing for the upgrade exam seriously 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 paper away through the poem pages on the doctor's desk. Because it took too long, everyone took a break for half an hour before announcing anything else.

The people who were projected stood up and left the table, and the transparent figures disappeared into the empty room. Shade picked up Mia who finally stood up from the window sill. The small orange cat was probably starving. After being held by Shade, it kept meowing:

"I'll take you to eat something good later."

The detective who was in an unusually good mood said while petting the cat.

Leave the room and open the door next door. The other four people in the group were there. Miss Louisa was reading a book while Luvia was sitting at the dinner table, using cards on the table to perform divination. Priest August and Dr. Schneider were sitting on the sofa, looking at the newspapers spread out on the coffee table, talking about tax issues.

Seeing Shade coming 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.

"It should be fine."

He immediately sat on the sofa. The soft seat made Xia De, who had been tired all day, feel particularly comfortable:

"What about you?"

"I asked Anat to do a divination and I want to see what the result will be."

Priest August said, while Shade looked at Luvia at the dining table. The purple-eyed fortune teller winked at him playfully:

"Xia De will definitely be fine this time. Although Priest August's score will not be very high, he can pass smoothly. However, the doctor will be a little worried."

"Oh, I knew it!"

Dr. Schneider covered his forehead and raised his head 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 Shade and Mia ate a little to fill their stomachs. Taking advantage of this time, Shade also heard several other people complaining about the content of the exam. This scene of everyone sitting around complaining about the exam makes foreigners feel like they have returned to their hometown.

Although everything is different from the past in a world where steam and mystery coexist, occasionally Shade can still find traces of his hometown in his life. Now, he is no longer as enthusiastic about finding a way back as when he first came, but he will never forget where he came from and who he is.

After resting for a while, the five people returned to the next room again. The four teachers also made sure to show up on time. The Academy of Thaumaturgy probably had a very unique grading method, so the transcripts were sent directly. Instead of showing specific scores, they are rated as excellent, exceeded expectations, passing, failing, and terrible.

Among Shard’s eighteen courses, 11 were excellent, 6 exceeded expectations, and one was passing. The course he passed was "Folklore, Religion and Civilization". This course required more understanding than memorization, so Shade just barely passed.

But this is enough.

"Ahem!"

The five people looked down at their transcripts, and Professor Gulliver coughed and reminded them:

"The summer exam week of 1853 in the Sixth Age Universal Calendar is over. First of all, I would like to congratulate all the correspondence magicians. I have read your transcripts. Your group's results are very good, and there is no need for the academy to issue an academic warning. As usual, I need to remind you about the upgrade-"

"Bill Schneider, the college has received your application for promotion. If you want to be promoted to 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 obtained the ritual materials. Now that the basic requirements for the four spirit runes have been met, I plan to wait until the full yellow moon phase in autumn before being promoted."

The doctor replied, Professor Gulliver nodded:

"In addition, the college has received the sample of [Fake Philosopher's Stone] submitted by you. You did a very good job this time, and Professor Rutgers who issued the task is very satisfied. Reward questions will be given later. At the same time, the official off-campus internship time for this summer has been set, and the specific situation will be notified to you before next Saturday. The current plan is that twelve students will go to the Tobesk area, and the local groups will be evenly divided. , you will be responsible for about three people.”

"No problem, Professor."

The doctor said, judging from the tone, the results of "Aether Mechanics" should be really bad.

"Dorothy Louisa, if you want to be promoted to fifth grade at the end of the year, please don't forget that you still have several basic courses to go. In addition, regarding your fourth grade rating, please contact the Folklore Institute privately. Communicate."

"No problem, Professor."

The blond writer lady also nodded, with a big smile on her face. It seemed that the ancient essay was successfully passed.

"Luvia Anat, regarding the joint training program for the next grade, please remind the Prophets Association to give us the documents as soon as possible. In addition, the Astronomy School is organizing astrology activities in the autumn. If you are interested, you can contact us through poetry See the manuscript page for details. ”

"Good professor."

There is nothing wrong with Luvia.

"Later Augustus, whether you intend to be promoted to the second grade in the winter or not, please inform the college as soon as possible so that the next training plan can be arranged."

"Okay."

Priest August also nodded.

"Finally, Shad Hamilton."

The professor glanced at Shade:

"According to the regulations of St. Byrons, grade promotion can only be carried out at the end of the winter semester. However, after receiving your application, discussions in the History School, and Miss Danister's recommendation, theoretically agree to your promotion. By the second grade... you were promoted from the first level to the second level in one month, which is considered a record."

Professor Garcia on the side couldn't help but smile. If it wasn't the right time to speak now, he would have already started saying that students in the School of History should be like this.

"You have passed all the written examinations of the basic course, and the practical final assignments of alchemy and potions have also passed the review. By the way, that everlasting candle is really good."

It seems that the tuition fees charged by Old John are not intentionally high.

"In addition, although I agree in principle that you will be promoted to the second grade after the exam week this summer, the rules are the rules, and violations of the rules will be punished. Therefore, as a punishment for violating the rules, you will be promoted to the second grade in the summer semester. You still need 10 practical credits, which are now increased to 20. Please complete the remaining 20 practical credits of the first grade before next Saturday, otherwise you will not pass your grade promotion requirements."

Professor Earl Gulliver said seriously that the school rules at St. Byrons are very strict. You can find ways to get around some of the rules, but you must abide by them.

In fact, the condition of 20 practical credits is very harsh. After all, the doctor spent a month, went through many hardships and even almost encountered the evil **** to complete the [Forged Philosopher's Stone] academy reward, and only received 5 points in total. Theoretically, Shade could only get 20 points by completing four tasks of this difficulty, but not only was it too difficult, but there wasn't even enough time.

Fortunately, he has other options. He originally thought that if he was lucky, he could keep the [Endless Mercury Bottle], but that is definitely not possible now. 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."

Shad said, thinking that not only would he have to wait for Iluna to come back next Wednesday, but he would also want to see if there were any academy tasks that he could complete if he had time.

"Very good, in addition to your studies, the St. Byrons 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 Era Universal Calendar. This happened The college did not expect that, and it has received very detailed information from the Zhengshen Church."

The professor turned the pages of the document in his hand:

"Because you are correspondence cyclomancers from the Tobesk area, the academy will give you a report to let you know what happened last Thursday. If you think the Tobesk area is no longer habitable, you can Submit an application to move the team across regions."

"This is not necessary for the time being."

Dr. Schneider said cautiously, and the professor nodded:

"Based on the information you submitted, the team will give each person a reward of 5 practical credits. You have also experienced two divine events, which is more than most professors in the college have experienced in their lifetime."

The information provided by the five people is actually not of much value. The 5 practical credits are not a reward for the information, but a unified comfort for the local correspondence magicians. Experiencing something like this, not going crazy or dying, and being able to tell something about what happened that night is an achievement in itself, so it is understandable that the academy gives some unimportant rewards.

In this way, Xia De's task of obtaining 20 credits a week was suddenly reduced to 15 credits. Although it's still not easy, at least the pressure has been reduced a lot.

"In addition, St. Byrons has issued a long-term academy bounty mission to the correspondence ring warlocks in Tobesk and surrounding areas to find and provide information about the thirteen-ring warlock "Godcaller"."

Professor Gulliver said, and at the same time, the reward order was also sent through the doctor's poem manuscript pages.

"Professor, are you sure that the god-caller is a thirteen-ring warlock?"

Luvia asked.

"Pretty sure."

Professor Gulliver nodded, and Luvia glanced at Shade, who looked at Mia the cat lying in front of her. Because I was going to have a big meal in the evening, I only fed it a small amount of cat food just now. Now the cat is lying there with a languid look, but Shade knows that it must be pretending. The tail wagging behind the cat shows that the cat is very energetic now.

"Although the divine descending incident has passed, the local correspondence magicians still need to be vigilant about the follow-up situation. Although the Zhengshen Church has made up its mind to make those madmen disappear forever, but from the situation last Thursday It seems that the church has probably been comfortable for too long, and it can even make such a mistake..."

Professor Gulliver obviously also has some opinions on the Zhengshen Church, but his expression is not very clear. Having said these things, everything about the exam week is over. Professor Gulliver and the two lecturers encouraged the five members of the group and left first. Professor Garcia stayed for dozens of minutes longer to discuss with Shade his second-year training plan.

In addition, Professor Garcia has promised to open his personal elective course "Folding Space" to Shade, focusing on large-scale ritual mystiques and thaumaturgy mystiques. This time, he came to inform Shad of his class time. "Folding Space" has a total of four classes, each class lasts two hours. Classes are scheduled on Monday and Tuesday of the second week of August. Classes start at 6 o'clock every night, and two classes are held consecutively each time.

Xia De participated in the course through projection. After the course was completed, a course report was submitted within one week as proof of course completion.

After "Folding Space", Xia De's performance will be considered 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 talented students. Originally, the dean of the School of History wanted to come to see you in person today. But something happened in the New World, and he had to rush to solve it, so it was still me who came to see you. I noticed that it has been a month since your first time travel. Have you done the second one? Plan for time travel?"

Professor Garcia asked.

"Of course, I bought a time key in 3002 of the Fifth Era, and asked Luvia Anat to help me divine the time of good luck, and I am going to open it in half a month."

Of course, the report must be submitted after the three explorations have been completely completed. After all, this key is related to the founder of St. Byrons. Shade 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... polish it, there is currently no way to do it.

"3002? I remember nothing happened that year, at least nothing major happened. It seems that this time is the key to the real poet level."

Professor Garcia thought for a while and said, it seemed that Shade had heard this rhetoric before, but he did not raise any objection.

"Okay, Mr. Hamilton. You are probably the first student in this millennium who can be allowed to upgrade outside the end of the winter semester in violation of the rules. Very good, keep up the hard work, I think you have hope before the age of 30 Official entry into St. Byrons ”

Professor Garcia encouraged before saying goodbye to Shade. The transparent figure left the chair, and the projection ceremony officially ended.

The foreigner let out a long sigh, feeling relaxed all over at this moment. He got up and went to the window, opened the curtains of the window, and saw the blazing sunset outside.

The daytime on Saturday finally ended, the red light shone on my face, and the midsummer sunset was so hot:

"It takes one month to advance from the first ring to the second ring. At this rate, it is actually possible for me to advance to the 13th ring before I am 30 years old."

Thinking in my heart, I couldn't help but smile.

[The miracles, blasphemy, enlightenment and whispers of the Second Ring, do you have any ideas? 】

She asked in her ear.

"It has been a month since I read "Crazy Light Chaser", and I can already feel that the results will be produced in the next few weeks. The story of "Tree Kiss" is being read intensively with the help of Miss Louisa, below I’m afraid there will be progress before the end of the month.”

[These are most likely inspirations. 】

"Yes, so we have to think about the other three elements carefully... After a week's rest, it's time to start a new adventure. Life really can't stop."
