My Magic Age

There is a rock gollum parked on the playground in front of the experimental building of the Magic Academy. There are countless fine cracks on the dark rock surface. Some green moss spreads outward from the cracks in the rock. There are even small lavender flowers blooming on the moss. son, such as If you get a little closer, you will feel that the thick arms are shaking slightly, and the spiritual fire in the two eye sockets on the head of the rock Golem keeps flickering and jumping, but its legs are like two stone pillars. , standing motionless on the grass.

A group of senior magic apprentices gathered around the rocky Golem. A teacher's assistant from the academy stood on the top of a ladder, holding an iron drill and a hammer in his hands, trying to armor the heart of the torso. His strength was not that great, and although the iron drill in his hand was very hard, it was still unable to cut through the rocky Gaolun's body.

"Come and take a look, everyone. These lapis lazuli stones are really hard. You can only chip off some powder with this chisel, but they can make such a Goulan weighing dozens of tons move effortlessly. The magic patterns inside are The core energy stone of the formation must be very large. I guess it should be the legendary core stone. This It is not common to grow rock essences on the Roland continent. The core stones sold in the market are usually brought back by adventurers from other planes." The magic instructor assistant waved the hammer in his hand vigorously, while still shaking. I forgot to explain to the students watching below about the rocky golems.

The giant rock golem that was more than four meters high was very eye-catching on the playground. I passed by the edge of the lawn holding a bundle of magic parchment and looked over curiously, only to realize that the rock golem was not the one Teresa signed the contract with. Demon pet? I thought to myself: Why isn't Teresa there? What are they doing?

Unknowingly, my pace slowed down, and then I saw Theresa in the crowd who looked like she was about to cry without tears. She looked at the tall rock golem with worry in her eyes and held it tightly in her hands. Holding the black stone tablet, standing next to her was a magic instructor from the earth magic teaching and research group. Unfortunately, I had only just arrived at the magic academy so I didn’t know the name of this short magic instructor.

He was wearing a set of khaki magic robes, holding a magic book about earth magic in his hand, constantly twirling the mustache on his lips with his other hand, and proudly said to Teresa: "According to the records in magic books, the core of every Rock Golem has a very precious energy core. My guess is that this Rock Golem also has a very precious energy core in its body. A piece of energy stone. This kind of energy stone is extremely precious. We will chisel the armor of its torso into pieces in order to completely understand the magic pattern structure inside. Of course, there should also be a magical mechanism with exquisite craftsmanship from the goblin civilization period. , those arrogant goblins tried to replace magic with technology and were abandoned by the gods, but these exquisite craftsmanship are still worth learning. "

The short magic instructor raised his head and glanced at Theresa who was hesitant to speak. Seeing that she was still unwilling to speak, he continued: "Teresa, you must be walking around with such a big guy. There will be a lot of inconvenience, so it is better to dedicate it to the college. Of course, the college I will never take your property in vain. Logically speaking, half of this big guy should belong to the academy, but such an elemental structure cannot be cut casually. You can take out hundreds of them at home. Magic Crystal, do you want to buy back this rock gall?"

Teresa's white color turned pale when she heard this. She pressed her hands tightly on the money bag at her waist and bit her lips and refused to speak.

The short magic instructor tried his best to stand on tiptoes, but still couldn't reach Teresa's shoulders. He opened the magic book in his hand, uttered a short spell, and a section of the earth wall rose from the ground at his feet. He stood up, just enough to hold him up so that he could look straight at Teresa.

"This feels much better!" He murmured, then stretched out his short hand and pressed it on Teresa's round shoulder, and continued: "Silly girl, give up your so-called heroic dreams and donate them to the academy. The Hall of Honor accepts your donation, and you should be able to get a lot of merit points, which can be exchanged for a lot of good things in our college. What can be more tangible than money? "

"But, Teacher Abraham, it is my partner!" Teresa said stubbornly.

Teresa was a little sad. She wanted to stop the rude behavior of those magic apprentices, but when the words came to her mouth, she was shut up by Teacher Abraham's sharp eyes.

He continued chattering: "The civilization of the goblins thousands of years ago used technology and magic to create a new form of life form. This creature is called an elemental construct. A very perfect appearance, isn't it? "

Some senior students around seemed to have a blind worship of the magician Abraham La. An apprentice wearing a knowledge magic suit next to him said with some obsession: "Teacher Abraham La, what you said is really great." Great, I think it is necessary for the college to organize an archaeological activity focusing on goblin civilization. You can take us to search for the lost goblin civilization.”

"Unfortunately, there are no ancient goblin ruins left in the Sloit Province. Maybe there are goblin ruins deep in the Purple Green Mountains. We can suggest that the academy choose a training ground for summer adventure experience. Around the Ziqing Mountains," Magician Abraham raised his eyebrows.

The thin assistant on the ladder banged the iron rod with a loud bang. The sharp iron rod pierced the crack in the rock Golem's chest, and the broken stone chips kept falling down.

Theresa was anxious and wanted to cry. I didn't expect that such a thing would happen in the War College, the highest institution in El City. They are simply a group of shameless robbers. At this time, they will stand on the moral high ground of magic academic research to embezzle the personal property of weak college students.

I sighed and thought that Theresa was too honest after all!

"Theresa, Theresa!" I stood at the edge of the lawn, pretending to be confused and anxious, and shouted loudly.

Theresa looked for the source of the sound among the crowd around her. She saw me standing at the edge of the lawn at the entrance of the laboratory building, waving at her. She ran a few steps towards me and asked loudly, "Ji Jia, what do you want to talk to me about?"

I didn't have anything to talk to her about. I called her like this just to call her out from the group of senior students so that we could think of a safe way to take the rock golem away safely. Because if we let those students and teachers ravage the rock golem, maybe at the last moment, the rock golem will give up the contract signed before, which will cause a short-term trauma to Theresa's mental power.

This group of people are studying the rock golem. They clearly want to dig out the core stone in its chest cavity!

My eyes rolled and I shouted, "Scholar Yekis has been waiting for you for a long time. Hurry up and bring your partner to the laboratory with me. I have been looking for you for a long time!"

"Ah! Okay, I'll be there soon!" Talisa was stunned for a moment and immediately said what I said.

"Take your partner with you. Scholar Yekis said he wanted to use some metal rune plates to make a metal armor for it!" I said loudly.

Teresa quickly wiped the tears from her face with her sleeves and quickly activated the stone tablet of the rock golem. The rock golem immediately creaked all over, and a pair of huge stone arms were raised in front of the chest, slowly moving. The rock golem stretched out two thick fingers, directly picked up the assistant teacher who was climbing down the ladder, and gently placed him on the lawn beside him. The agility in his head kept flashing.

The senior students around saw the rock golem moving, and they were very worried that the thick and stupid rock golem would hurt themselves, and they all stepped back.

As a result, a gap appeared on the lawn, and the huge rock golem let out a low neigh, took big steps and followed Teresa to me.

"Sorry, Teacher Abraham!"

Teresa, who burst into laughter, said hello to the magician Abraham before leaving.

"I will go to the Hall of Honor some other day. Goodbye, teacher!"

"Goodbye, teacher!" I followed Theresa and waved goodbye to Abraham who was standing on the mound in silence.

Those angry eyes passed through Theresa's body and focused on me. Abraham saw me holding a bundle of magic parchment with the seal of the magic laboratory in the corner, frowning and saying nothing. I knew he must have remembered my appearance.

As Theresa and I walked towards the lab building, I heard whispers behind me:

Someone among the senior students asked curiously, "Who is this guy?"

"Freshman, the guy who defeated Abigail a few days ago. It is said that he used the invisibility scroll to knock Abigail unconscious..."

Someone sighed, "A very tough junior!"

Suddenly, someone seemed to remember the battle at the dance two months ago, so he said, "He has good marksmanship..."

"Maybe one day we should find an opportunity to teach him how to respect seniors!"

Finally, I vaguely heard this sentence...

...Beautiful dividing line...

Scholar Yekis has been regretting the two core stones these days, but was intercepted by President Xixi on the way and bought at the market price.

But he also understood me very well. Facing the supreme leader of the magic world in Sloyt Province, we small shrimps had no way to preserve those core stones. However, this rock essence was the core of puppetry research. The subject studied by Yekis scholars happened to be "Integration of Machinery and Magic". This subject has obviously been on the edge of the magic world. For so many years, no magician has been willing to touch on this aspect of academic research, which also took into account the decline of goblin civilization.

When the two opposites of technology and magic are combined together, they will produce a more powerful force. To a certain extent, goblin scientists have created a new form of life and become a new generation of creators. However, this creator is not the gods in the kingdom of God. It is this point that makes the goblin's technological era annihilated in the tide of history. In fact, the machinery and magic touched by Yekis should be regarded as an introductory chapter for goblins. It is possible that in the era of goblin civilization, this kind of academic research is the most superficial theoretical knowledge.

Making magic puppets is what goblins are best at.

Yekis's magic mechanical puppet was also developed with reference to the records in ancient books and after a little bit of research. In this field, the magic scholars in Orianna's Puppet Shop had the most thorough research. They even invented a magic puppet that could clean the room.

In fact, my worry is completely unnecessary. These days, I have been discussing this issue with scholar Yekis in the laboratory. Yekis's statement is very clear: the most essential difference between magic puppets and rock golems is that the former is an extension of the magic pattern array and the rational use of machinery, while the latter creates a new form of life.

However, Yekis still has a strong interest in those core stones, because it is said that the new puppets invented by magic scholars in Oriana can already use core stones as energy sources. The biggest advantage of core stones as super energy sources is that they are very durable. It is said that a piece of core stone the size of a fingernail can keep a standard human puppet running for more than ten years.

Yekis's magic puppet is actually the most basic prototype, far behind the magic products in Oriana's puppet shop, but Yekis's magic puppet is an academic research. The magic academy hopes to come up with such an academic research topic and apply for some magic resources from the magic guild.

However, Yekis also mentioned Theresa's rock golem to me. He was very yearning for the product of goblin civilization and wanted to study it up close.

When we mentioned how to invite Theresa, who was busy with the impact of the third-level magic apprentice, Yekis's idea was to directly find Theresa's magic mentor to discuss. At this time, the magic mentor's words were still very effective, but I didn't agree.

At that time, I joked with him: "Otherwise, you can approach her rock golem on the pretext of making a set of metal armor for Theresa's magic pet. As long as the magic metal on the surface is melted again, your discarded metal rune plates can be engraved with good magic patterns!"

"Forget it, you know what I look like when I pick up the carving knife. If I want to carve a metal rune plate, I don't know how many slabs will be wasted..." Yekis' eyes were staring at me at that time, and he said in succession: "Why didn't I I thought of it, why didn't I think of it... Since you can make magic scrolls, then drawing magic patterns on magic rune plates should not be too difficult for you! "

So, in recent days, the piles of waste in Yekis' laboratory have been turned over by Yekis from beginning to end, and more than 300 pieces of magic rune metal plates with a square size of one foot have been cleaned out. In the past few days, Yekis has taken all of them to the metal furnace of the academy, hoping to remelt the thin layer of thorium attached to the surface of the metal plates and recast these rune metal plates.

It was not rash for me to take Theresa to see Yekis like this, so I took Theresa into the laboratory building together.
