Chapter 320 "Inheritance of Master and Disciple"

The young low-level female mage Mary walked on the stairs leading to the magic laboratory with heavy steps. The magic spar lamps inlaid on both sides of the corridor emitted a constant bright light, but this light did not dispel the anxiety in her heart at all. .

During this period of time, the apprentices in the entire tower have been suffering from the same unease - the old magician's mental problems seem to be deteriorating in a new direction, and the eccentric and gloomy old man seems to be in the last "connection". What kind of stimulation was received, he first let the apprentices demolish the spiritual protection circles in the tower day and night, and then he did not hesitate to demolish one of the three magic laboratories, and set up a lot of lethals inside. Incomprehensible, new experimental devices, he locked himself in the new laboratory all day long, studying things that the apprentices could not understand and dare not ask, he began to talk to himself more frequently, Mumbling, and sometimes laughing and dancing in the lab all of a sudden...

He seemed completely insane.

The only thing that the apprentices feel fortunate about now is that the old mage's new madness seems to have left him no time to punish others. No apprentice has been whipped or scolded for so many days. The old mage seems to be completely immersed in his chaotic spiritual world. , even forgot that he had a group of apprentices.

So Mary now feels that she is probably the most unfortunate one among all the apprentices - because the old mage Daniel still remembered himself in the madness, and sent a servant to inform him to go to the new laboratory to find him...

Is it the new crazy experiment? Or an inexplicable punishment? Or is it just a casual greeting from the old mage in a state of confusion?

At the end of the stairs, a corridor with slightly dim lighting appeared in front of you. At the end of the corridor was the magic laboratory. A servant in a short black robe came over from the corridor, bent slightly in front of Mary, and said in a stiff and low voice: "Master is waiting for you."

"I see." Mary nodded and walked over the servant.

The slaves in the Mage Tower are all slaves purchased by the old Mage. Except for the old butler who doesn't know how old he is, all the slaves have undergone neuron transformation surgery and spell brainwashing. These are stiff and lacking. The emotional "living dead" took care of the old mage and all his apprentices, and when necessary, also served as experimental material for the old mage.

Mary used to fear them,

She also sympathized with them, but now, she is only numb to the servants of the living dead, no different from looking at golems.

Anyway, everyone in this tower is similar.

She walked through the corridor, pushed open the door of the new laboratory, and saw that the old mage was already waiting for her inside - with his back to the door, he seemed to be staring at something on the experimental table.

Mary took a breath and walked into the laboratory: "Teacher, are you looking for me?"

The artificial nerve cords behind the old mage twitched, then he turned around and stared at the female apprentice with his brown-yellow eyes: "Mary, you came just in time, come here—close the door."

Mary walked over nervously and looked at the newly renovated laboratory.

The racks holding animal samples and potions have been moved to other places, and the original stone alchemy platforms have disappeared, replaced by a large test bench in the center of the room, and several on both sides of the room. With a long table and a storage cabinet for magic materials, the new laboratory looks completely different from the gloomy and terrifying place before, but it is more like a normal magic laboratory.

The young female apprentice came to the experimental table and was about to ask her tutor what instructions she had, but she saw a lot of blueprints spread out on the experimental table, as well as a lot of scratch paper full of calculations.

"You, you are the best mathematician among all my apprentices. I chose you - come and complete the task assigned by the master with me!" The old mage glanced at Mary and said in an unquestionable tone, "You take it first. With these, do these few questions!"

Do questions?

Mary was at a loss, but she did not dare to disobey her tutor's orders, but she still took the papers and began to read them carefully.

Her understanding was a bit difficult. Although those on the paper were mathematical problems that could be solved with mathematical skills, the words and sentences were very different from the magic concepts she had encountered in the past, but no matter what, she still insisted. Scalp looked down.

Then, she began to try to use her own understanding to solve the problem of calculating the range of the rune field.

In the middle of solving the problem, a thin finger suddenly stretched out from the side, and Mary was shocked, and then heard the teacher's words from the side: "Idiot! Where's your square symbol?!"

A layer of cold sweat broke out on Mary's forehead, but the expected electric shock or whipping did not come. The tutor just said coldly: "What are you still doing? Change it! Do you want to do the wrong question?!"

Mary hurriedly corrected her mistakes and continued on.

But what she does is still very difficult - she understands mathematics, but those definitions and formulas are too new and too abstract for her.

Understanding the topic added extra difficulty to her, so that she would make mistakes in what she would have done, and soon she heard the instructor yelling in her ear: "Don't you have a brain?! The theoretical value is 277! The actual interference It's worth it! You're still doing it?!"

"Have you seen any magic circle's rune knot that can't be paired? Are you going to put it into your mind with that extra starting rune!"

"Quartz sand is negativity, it's negativity! Do you think it's mithril and fine gold? Let you design a magic circle, and sooner or later you will blow yourself up!"

The tutor's reprimands and roars sounded almost every once in a while, causing Mary to shiver every time, but slowly, she realized something - the tutor was actually teaching herself something.

This is the first time since the instructor was completely obsessed with performing "connection" rituals a few years ago, this is the first time he is teaching the apprentice actually!

When I was stunned for a moment, the teacher's voice rang again: "What are you still doing? You still have two big questions to write! You are not allowed to eat until you finish the paper!"

Mary hurriedly lowered her head and read the last two questions seriously, but a strange feeling emerged from her heart: Could it be that... the tutor is not completely crazy recently, but really has a problem in magic research Huge breakthrough, so fully immersed in research?

She knew that the original reason for the old magician's mental problems was that he encountered some desperately huge problems in the process of magic research. The promising genius wizard has become sullen and eccentric, cold and twisted - that weird and terrible "connection" ritual just magnifies his mental problems.

Ten minutes later, Mary pushed the manuscript paper towards Daniel: "Teacher, I'm done..."

The old magician glanced at her: "Have you checked it?"

"I... checked."

"let me see."

The old magician snatched the paper from Mary's hand and read it carefully from beginning to end.

At that moment, whether it was an illusion or not, Mary seemed to see a slight smile on the teacher's always gloomy face.

"Well...so-so," the old magician's expression changed for a while, and the next second he had his face again, "It's far worse than when I did it, it took twice as long."

But Mary heard something else from this sentence: Aren't these questions written by the tutor himself? Did he do it again when he asked the question?

Obviously, the old mage would not explain her words, and Mary didn't have the guts to ask for such details. She just lowered her head and listened, listening to the old mage continue to say: "Although you have spent a long time, you have almost passed the test. You can take these materials. Go back, read it carefully, learn it all, and then teach it to the group of trash and idiots hiding at the bottom of the tower—tell them that I will test them in three days, and if they can’t learn it, just wait for me to be made a living dead.”

Mary shrank her neck and finally couldn't help but ask, "Teacher, what are these things... for?"

"These are great knowledge!" The old mage opened his hands and said excitedly, obviously he was in a good mood at the moment, and he was patient to explain to his apprentice, "It is the knowledge bestowed by my great master! You must study hard. , when you learn it, I will teach you how to form a magic net, how to simplify the magic circle - this is your great honor, it is your great honor to be able to serve the master!"

Mary nodded hurriedly, she began to doubt her optimistic estimate just now - her mentor, I am afraid that she is still crazy.

After he came into contact with a terrifying existence and made a deal with it, he really went completely crazy.

At this time, the old mage suddenly frowned, and then waved his hand impatiently: "Go out, that's all I can teach you today. My master is calling me, and I must respond immediately."

Mary knew that the "master" in the old mage's mouth was a terrifying mythical creature, or a similar mysterious existence, so she didn't dare to stay for a moment, and quickly nodded her head and stepped back.

Before leaving the laboratory, she heard the old mage shout from a distance: "You are doing well, you can eat meat at night!"

Mary bowed. "Thank you, Tutor."

After the young female apprentice left, the old mage muttered some vague words in a low voice, then hurriedly stood on a magic circle in the corner of the laboratory, and after activating the surrounding warning and protection runes, his spirit Quickly emptied, the nerve cord began to help him establish a connection with the surrounding runes.

In the next second, he saw that the environment around him was turned upside down, and the space with a high blue sky, endless water surface, and a large number of metal platforms appeared in front of him again.

Sure enough, as long as he is connected to the spiritual network, he will inevitably be brought to this place - the control of the extraterritorial wanderers is absolute, and there are no loopholes to drill.

The old master had already given up his resistance, and he respectfully bowed to the golden figure in front of him: "Master, what are your orders?"

"Let's do some papers first," Gao Wen casually conjured up two sets of questions, "I'll see how well you have mastered it."

Old Master: "...I follow your orders."

After a while, Gawain's scolding began to sound:

"What about your brain? Have you forgotten the basic definition of address mapping?!"

"Who told you that open ports can't be faked!"

"I don't understand what the only valid code means? It must always match the mental frequency! Let you design the ip index, you will burn your brain sooner or later!"

...

"Finally... have you checked?!"
