Elite Mages’ Academy Chapter 3: Admission test

When Xiao Lin opened his eyes again, he found that he was standing in a classroom, the size of which was about the same as that of a high school, with more than a hundred people in it, which seemed quite crowded.

The unique tone of the central smart computer rang in everyone's mind.

The entrance test begins!

Required mission: Escape from school within an hour! This school is being besieged by a large number of zombies. You can safely escape from the school and reach the safe area to complete the mission.

Optional tasks: 1. Kill at least five zombies

2. Kill the zombie king.

Task rewards: complete the required tasks, get 10 credits and 100 redemption points; complete optional task 1, get 10 extra credits and 200 redeem points; complete optional task 2, get 20 extra credits and 500 redeem points.

Reminder: Each preparatory student will get an entrance package and a free novice weapon at random.

As an entrance test, there is no penalty for failure in this scenario.

Xiao Lin was squeezed into the corner of the classroom and looked around. The classroom appeared to be very dilapidated. The gray walls were smeared with blackened blood stains. The tables and chairs fell to the ground in all directions, through the broken glass. The window, the blue sky and white clouds outside, the gentle breeze, everything looks so real, people can't help but shock the technology possessed by Dawn Academy.

The playground outside is full of zombies called by smart computers. The muscles of these zombies have been completely rotten, and there is no human form at all, and they are wandering aimlessly.

The novice weapon mentioned by the smart computer quickly appeared in everyone's hands out of thin air in a burst of light. What appeared in Xiao Lin's hand was a wooden gray wand, and at the same time he also got the wand information in his mind.

Novice Staff

Magic attack power evaluation: F

With a skill energy ball, each use will consume mental power.

Automatically obtain skills, basic wand mastery LV1: 0/100

Basic wand mastery?

Xiao Lin seemed to understand something. He waved his staff and pointed it at the sky outside the window. He felt an inexplicable force lost in his body instantly. The handle of the staff was slightly heated, and then a white fist-sized energy bomb The whistling sound was emitted from the top, and it exploded like fireworks in mid-air after flying less than fifty meters.

Basic magic wand mastery: 2/100

This kind of magic that can only be seen in the movie caused many people to exclaim, staring at the magic wand in Xiao Lin's hand with shining eyes, and he lingered to remove it.

Although novice weapons are randomly assigned, such as swords, bows, swords, sticks, daggers, wands, and so on, there are many varieties, but only a handful of people have random wands.

Compared to the swords that can be seen in daily life, the magic wand is obviously more attractive to everyone.

Some flexible-minded people are busy exchanging weapons with others. There are always people who don’t like randomly assigned weapons. They dislike daggers that are too short, machetes are too obstructive, and bows and arrows cannot be used. One after another left the classroom.

The classroom was suddenly empty, and some others stayed to try out the weapons in their hands. Although swords and other things are common, if you say they have actually used them, there are not a few of them.

"The skill I automatically acquire is the basic shortbow mastery."

"I am a basic dagger master."

"It seems that whatever weapon is randomly assigned, what skill is automatically obtained."

"Hey, did you find out? Every time you use a weapon to slash, this basic mastering skill will increase the experience value!"

"Really! I just waved it, which increased my experience point."

Everyone soon discovered this technique, but it does not necessarily increase every time a weapon is used. For example, if a person with a short sword just waved it casually, the experience value did not change, only when you bulged your whole body The experience value will only increase when the strength is heavily swiped with the next sword.

Xiao Lin leaned against the wall in the corner. His head was a little dizzy, but it did not prevent him from quietly listening to other people’s discussions. 1 point, regardless of whether it is long-range or melee combat, there are no exceptions, but only myself, after just using an energy ball, the basic wand mastery has increased by 2 experience points.

Xiao Lin's eyes brightened, and he finally understood how to use his SS Xueba talent. In the passive state, he increased the learning efficiency of various abilities by 100%, which meant that his skill upgrade speed was faster than others. Times!

"Energy bomb!"

Xiao Lin once again released a white ball of energy out of the window, and his basic wand mastery has also increased to 4/100. His guess is correct. It is worthy of an SS-level talent. Although it is not powerful, it can be seen from a long-term perspective. Look, this is a magical skill.

But with joy came a heavier dizziness. Xiao Lin's eyes went dark and his feet staggered. He quickly supported the wall to keep himself from falling. After a while, he recovered. , But there was a slight sense of exhaustion in my mind, as if it was overuse of the brain.

"Could it be that it won't...surely there can be no BUG, ​​how can skill experience be so easy to improve." Xiao Lin looked at the magic wand in his hand, quickly guessed the reason, and couldn't help but smile. stand up.

There are not many people left in the classroom. Just as Xiao Lin guessed, if you just cut a few stabs and stabbed a few swords at will, you can quickly increase the experience value, and they can fully improve the skill level to one here. At a higher level, go out to complete the task.

In fact, with most people’s strength and physique, when they use their best effort to swing the sword, at most twenty or thirty strokes, they will feel soreness in their arms, and the strength can’t make it up. The increase in experience seems to be judged. Standard, when your strength is not enough to meet the standard, no matter how you swing the sword, the experience value will not increase.

The time limit for the task is only 1 hour. I am afraid that it is also to prevent them from having enough time to slowly brush up their skill experience points. In order to avoid wasting too much energy, more people choose to leave the classroom first.

Xiao Lin rested for a while, and after barely recovering his spirits, he prepared to observe the situation at the door first, and then he noticed that the girl named Gu Xiaoyue was also following behind him.

Gu Xiaoyue wears a beige coat, a white dress, shoulder-length hair, and a pair of black-rimmed glasses. In terms of looks, this girl is actually not very outstanding, but she is kind of gentle and cold. The peculiar temperament, but people can't help but want to watch her.

Xiao Lin didn't know Gu Xiaoyue, but the male instincts made him subconsciously want to intersect with this very temperament girl, so he stood still and said hello back: "You are Gu Xiaoyue, are you okay? "

Gu Xiaoyue gently pushed the black-framed glasses on the bridge of her nose, and she still had a crisp voice like an oriole version, straight to the point, and concisely said: "Would you like to change your weapon?"

"Change weapons?" Xiao Lin was a little dazed.

Gu Xiaoyue swung the short sword in her hand with some difficulty. After all, she is a girl. Her power does not seem to be great. She said seriously: "I am not used to this."

"Why did you change me?" Xiao Lin was still a little confused: "I mean, there were so many people in the classroom just now, I don't think most of them would refuse the request of a beautiful woman."

Gu Xiaoyue wrinkled her delicate nose: "I only want a magic wand, other weapons are not suitable for me."

Xiao Lin nodded: "There are indeed fewer people allocated to the wand."

"To be precise, only 15 people were assigned to the magic wand." Gu Xiaoyue gave an accurate number, thought about it, and added: "I have observed that among the people assigned to the magic wand, only you are not suitable for use. This weapon, so exchange it."

Xiao Lin was slightly surprised: "Did you find out?"

Gu Xiaoyue pushed down the glasses frame again: "This is not difficult to analyze. Although I don't play games, I also know that spells will definitely consume some kind of things. Whether mental power or mana is good, it should be and The intelligence value of our physical examination is related."

Xiao Lin’s intelligence is only 2 points, so after just using the energy bomb twice, his brain will feel abnormally tired. He actually thought of this possibility, but he didn’t expect that the girl’s observation ability would be too. So keen.

Xiao Lin agreed very happily. For him, a short sword is undoubtedly better than a magic wand.

Novice Shortsword

Evaluation of physical attack power F－

Automatically master the basic skills of swordsmanship LV1: 0/100

As expected, this physical weapon does not have a consumption problem, and its attack power is also lower. The magical attack power of the wand is evaluated as F, while the short sword attack power is only F-.

Gu Xiaoyue obtained a magic wand that she was satisfied with, and had no intention of continuing to communicate, so she turned around and left.

Xiao Lin felt a little regretful, shook his head, and when he came to the entrance of the teaching building, there were already some bolder people holding weapons and rushing towards the playground outside the gate. The playground was almost the size of a football field and a half, at the end of the playground. A light yellow halo is shrouded, this is the safe area referred to by the mission, as long as you rush into this yellow halo, you will be able to complete the mission.

The zombies on the playground wander aimlessly, and there is no sign of actively entering the teaching building. This is also expected, otherwise these novice rookies will almost never complete the task. But when someone rushed out, the zombie instantly got the target and began to move faster towards these people.

The zombies have very poor mobility. They can accelerate their movements instantly, which is equivalent to an adult walking fast. However, the total number of zombies is at least about three or four hundred. The first group of people who rushed out was quickly attacked The head of the person running in the front was directly twisted by a zombie, and then the body turned into scattered fragments and disappeared.

The entrance test is very clear. There is no penalty for immediate failure. There will be no deduction of 10 years of life, and there will be no real death. But if you are scratched by a zombie, the pain is quite real. The screams and wailings one after another on the playground are enough to make the men and women who live in peace and tranquility all the year round feel terrified.

Some people saw that the zombies were attracted by the first group of people and rushed out. However, the system obviously did not intend to give them a chance to take advantage of the loopholes. The moment they left the house, the zombie group that contained the first group of people immediately separated Most of the time, they turned around and gathered towards them. On the contrary, the pressure on the first group was greatly reduced and they were closer to the safe area.

Looking at the miserable scene on the playground, Xiao Lin's eyelids jumped and swallowed hard. Before that, he was just an otaku. He admitted that he was a little scared. This task was obviously not as simple as everyone thought.

There is no penalty for failure. Even if you die, you can be resurrected. It looks really beautiful, but neither Qin Chuan nor a smart computer has told them the tragic scene before them.

The attack power of zombies is not high. Unless you are unluckily caught directly by your neck and twisted instantly. In most cases, the damage caused by zombies to everyone is not fatal. He tore off a piece of meat, and then crunched it in his mouth.

The most direct impact brought by this kind of vision made some cowardly paralyzed directly on the ground, unable to even stand up.

People who have been scratched their legs will be even more miserable. After losing their mobility, they will not expect someone to save them. They will soon be surrounded by zombies, even if they know that they will not die, but The feeling of being torn off by pieces of meat will probably be unforgettable for them all their lives, and their bodies will not disappear into this world until they are completely out of breath.

The entire playground is getting more and more chaotic, and the unexpected misery completely exceeds everyone’s psychological expectations. Even though they have weapons in their hands, they can face the hideous carrion, the tangy stench, the strong **** smell, and the screams for help everywhere. , So that most people have lost the desire to fight, and they just bury their heads and rush all the way, wanting to reach a safe area before the zombies come up.

Xiao Lin took a deep breath and tried to move his eyes away from the miserable scene on the playground. The observations just now gave him enough information. If he keeps watching, he will only lose the courage to rush out later.

The mission time limit is one hour. Xiao Lin silently calculated that he still has enough time to train. He has the bonus of learning masters, even if he can improve his basic short sword mastery to LV2.

Xiao Lin understands that he is born with deficiencies, and his total attribute value does not exceed 10. Whether it is strength, intelligence or physical fitness, it is probably the lowest among these people. If you want to increase the mission success rate, training skills is the best choice.

He turned and left the gate, preparing to find an empty classroom to practice basic dagger mastering skills. Soon the corner of his eyes lit up, and the unexpected shadow appeared in his sight, and Xiao Lin opened the door and walked into the classroom.

Gu Xiaoyue glanced back at him without saying a word, and then continued to stare at the playground outside the window. She suddenly waved her wand and shot a white energy ball, but it hit nothing, and it was impossible, Xiao Lin It was roughly estimated when it was first used, and the range of the energy projectile was about 50 meters.

The nearest zombie is also 100 meters away from the teaching building. It is impossible for smart computers to leave such a big loophole, allowing them to stay in the safe area of ​​the teaching building and directly attack the zombies outside like a fort.

Unlike physical weapons, if you want to practice basic magic wands, it’s not very obvious here. Mana or mental power is very precious to people who are not high in their initial attributes. The more wasteful they are More, it means that the next task is difficult to complete.

However, Xiao Lin didn't think this calm girl would make a wrong judgment. Seeing that the other party didn't mean to speak, he didn't bother to deal with it, so he simply stayed and started his own practice.

His initial strength is only 2 points. Fortunately, the short sword that he bought from Gu Xiaoyue's hands is lighter. If it is a large weapon such as a long sword, Xiao Lin may not be able to use it well.

Xiao Lin first swung the dagger lightly, the experience value of the basic dagger did not change at all.

Next, he tried to use all his strength, but the short sword was only dragged slightly in front of him, and the experience points remained motionless.

Finally, with all his strength, Xiao Lin held the dagger in both hands, raised it high, let the entire blade over the top of his head, and then made a slashing motion forward. On the floor, a small piece of rubble splashed, and the sharpness was unexpected.

Basic dagger master LV1: 2/100

"Sure enough, there is no loophole at all." Xiao Lin smacked his lips with regret, and tried the cleave and diagonal chopping postures, both of which increased experience points, indicating that the posture of the sword is not fixed. But you must meet the standards, and you must not be lazy in your strength, or you will be regarded as a failure and unable to improve your experience.

Xiao Lin tried his best to make his movements appear very standardized, but he has not learned any formal swordsmanship after all. These movements are nothing more than he imitated from various movies and TV. Swinging the sword is not in place without increasing the experience, but wasting his energy in vain.

Especially after a few minutes, Xiao Lin began to feel a little soreness in his arms, his scum-like physique finally manifested, often unable to use very much strength, the effect was greatly reduced, and the number of failures continued to increase. .

In about a quarter of an hour, his basic dagger master LV1 reached 90/100.

This data is not satisfactory to Xiao Lin. He has only been judged successfully 45 times. Now he finally regrets that his life was too boring, so he neglected physical exercise, and his physique is only 3 points, I am afraid Not even many girls can match.

Xiao Lin was already sweating profusely, and the degree of completion of the action was getting lower and lower, so he had to pause and start to rest.

"It doesn't make much sense for you to do this." Gu Xiaoyue finally moved her eyes out of the window, pushed her black-rimmed glasses, and analyzed her face seriously: "I tried before you came. Use me to fire energy bombs and natural Calculated by the ratio of rest and recovery, it takes about an hour to upgrade to LV2. I think other people are basically at this efficiency. This is why the task time is exactly one hour. The college will not give us any shortcuts!"

Xiao Lin exhaled and was slightly surprised by the girl’s calculation ability. Yes, according to his efficiency just now, it takes about 20 to 30 minutes to upgrade to LV2. If there is no Xueba talent that improves 100% efficiency~ IndoMTL.com~The time is doubled, which is exactly an hour or so.

It is naturally impossible to tell this girl that he has the talent for learning tyrants. Xiao Lin didn't want to be entangled in this topic, so he just turned away and asked: "Have you got results from your observation of the zombies' abilities?"

Gu Xiaoyue tilted her head, revealing a slight surprise: "Do you know what I'm doing?"

Xiao Lin was amused. When he entered the classroom, he saw that Gu Xiaoyue was not practicing skills, but leaning against the window to observe the outside, and he guessed what the girl was doing.

"Everyone who plays the game knows that before entering the dungeon, look at the guide. There is no strategy in this world, so we can only find the strategy information by ourselves."

"Games? I'm sorry, I never play games so naive." The girl looked serious.

Xiao Lin gave a dry cough and changed the subject again: "The attack power of zombies is not strong. According to the evaluation standards here, I think it is probably at the level of F-. As long as ordinary people are not hit in the vital part or in the leg, Four or five strokes are not a problem. Just now there was a very burly man who had suffered at least ten strokes before he fell to the ground."

After a pause, seeing the girl listening very carefully, Xiao Lin continued to analyze: "In terms of defense power, the defense of zombies is also very low. I am afraid it is also F-level. I saw a short sword with only F-attack power. I pierced the body of a zombie. In fact, from these two points, this task is not difficult, but everyone is really frightened."

Speaking of later, Xiao Lin smiled bitterly and sighed. He was also one of the people who was frightened. If you calm down and think about it, you will find that these zombies are not invincible except for the scary points. They rely on the novice weapons that are randomly allocated in his hand. , They are completely able to deal with zombies, but if they lose the courage to fight, there is no chance of winning at all. ) Book friends hurry up and pay attention!
