The Synthesis Wizard

Chapter 145 Mysterious Prize, Points Assessment

Starlight calendar year 1257, Xialong month (June).

Flash City, Dragon Heart Knight Academy.

The weather is hot and the breeze is gentle.

There is also a fiery atmosphere permeating the college.

Today is the graduation assessment day for the first class of Dragon Heart Knight Academy students.

Early in the morning, many fourth-year students who were about to graduate gathered at the martial arts training ground to discuss the upcoming graduation examination.

"I don't know what the graduation examination is like?"

"The academy has hidden it deep enough. They had to wait until we arrived at the assessment location before telling us the specific assessment content."

"No matter what the content is, since the assessment location is in the underground world, the difficulty will not be low."

"I heard that the underground world is very dangerous and full of monsters. I hope the academy won't make the assessment too difficult."

The students gathered together in twos and threes, and there was a buzz of discussion.

Outside the martial arts training ground, students from the other three grades were also watching curiously, wanting to see if they could get some information. After all, they would have to go through the same assessment in the future.

"Sean!"

Sheen finally squeezed through the crowd of younger students who were watching and entered the martial arts training ground. He was looking around for his friends when he heard a familiar call coming from his ears.

Turning around, he saw Luger and Solano waving to him.

"Why are you here so late?"

Walking closer, Luger punched Sheen's shoulder angrily.

The latter scratched his cheek and said with a smile: "The dean asked me to come over and say something."

Luger's eyes suddenly lit up, he came over and hugged Sheen's shoulders, and whispered mysteriously: "Did the dean tell you the information about the graduation assessment? Share it with me, we are brothers!"

Sheen shook his head and said: "Stop thinking nonsense. You don't know how strict the rules of the college are. How could the dean take the lead in breaking the rules? He just gave me a few words of encouragement."

Ruger was disappointed.

"What? The dean is too rigid. After all, you are also the chief of the fourth grade. What does it matter if you give me some information?"

"It's because Sheen is the fourth-year president and the dean believes he can get good grades, so he won't violate the rules and help him privately." Solano pursed his lips and smiled, revealing two shallow dimples, and turned to look at Sheen , "Xian, how are you preparing?"

"no problem!"

Sheen raised his right hand and made a confident muscle-flexing movement.

"I will definitely get first place this time too!"

Luge said with envy: "I heard that the top five students in the assessment can get a third-level dragon blood fruit and a mysterious prize."

The higher the level of Dragon Blood Fruit, the stronger the effect.

The lowest level of dragon blood fruit is exclusively for trainee knights.

The first and second graders in the academy, as well as some third graders who have not yet been promoted to knights, usually consume first-level dragon blood fruit.

The second-level dragon blood fruit is exclusively for knights to eat.

Only students who are promoted to knights are eligible to eat dragon blood fruit of this level.

As for the third-level dragon blood fruit, I heard that one can make an intermediate knight break through and become a high-level knight.

Among the graduates of this class, there are a total of eighteen intermediate knights including Sheen.

If you can get the third-level Dragon Blood Fruit, you can immediately break through and become a high-level knight.

Why isn't this enviable?

"That's great. I want the third-level Dragon Blood Fruit too." Luger said with envy on his face.

Solano chuckled and said: "The top five must be rounded up by those intermediate knight students. We should aim at the top fifty. We can also get a second-level Dragon Blood Fruit in the top fifty."

"The effect of the second-level Dragon Blood Fruit is quite inferior." Ruger muttered.

But this guy was an optimist and quickly put the matter behind him and turned to the topic of the mysterious prize.

"What do you think the so-called mysterious prize is?"

"I guess it's probably the stuff in the base." Solano's eyes flashed with longing, "I heard that there are many magical things there, and the Dragon Blood Fruit also comes from there."

"Isn't it a legendary magic item?"

"Unlikely. I heard that magic items can only be used by wizards, not knights."

"Could that be a potion?"

Ruger and Solano were discussing passionately, while Sheen was silent and looked a little strange.

The dean called him over just now. In addition to encouraging him, he also told him the true identity of the so-called mysterious prize.

Ruger was really right, it was a magic item.

The name is 'Magic Weave Construct', a powerful magic item that can also be used by knights.

The dean also said that all graduates can be assigned a set of first-level magic pattern constructs, but only the top five outstanding students can be assigned a more powerful second-level magic pattern construct.

It is said that after a high-level knight is equipped with the second-level magic pattern structure, he can directly have the combat power of a great knight!

When Sheen heard this, he was a little confused.

It can make high-level knights become as powerful as great knights. The effect of this magic pattern structure is simply ridiculously powerful!

If these words hadn't come from the dean's mouth, he would never have believed it.

"It is said that wizards' magic items are very powerful and magical. I didn't think so much before, but now it seems that the rumors are indeed true."

"Magic items are already so powerful, how powerful must the wizards who create these magic items be?"

Xian secretly marveled.

Thinking that after joining the Knight Guard after the graduation examination, he would be able to team up with the legendary wizard, he couldn't help but feel a surge of heart, and felt that a whole new world was waving towards him.

"Xian, what are you doing?"

Luger suddenly waved his hand in front of Sheen's face, interrupting the latter's thoughts.

"Nothing." Sheen said vaguely, turning to look at the entrance of the martial arts training ground, "The dean and the others are here."

The junior students at the entrance of the martial arts training ground were quickly dispersed, and Moritz walked in with a group of instructors.

After a brief speech, a group of people left the academy and headed straight out of the city.

Soon, Sheen knew today's destination.

Many people know that there is a forest near Glitter City that is heavily blockaded by the army.

It is said that there is a mining area inside, and a large amount of ore can be seen being shipped out of it every day.

Sheen was originally wondering why a mining area needed to be blocked by the army, but it wasn't until this moment that he suddenly understood.

There are not only mining areas in Daqing Forest, but also the entrance to the underground world.

Passing through the blockade outside the forest, the group quickly arrived at Camp No. 1.

When they saw hundreds of clay golems carrying ore back and forth in the camp, all the students couldn't help but widen their eyes.

"What's this?"

"It seems to be a clay golem. It is said to be made of clay."

"Clay? It's amazing!"

"The wizard is really powerful!"

The exclamations kept coming and going.

Some students couldn't help but reach out and touch the clay golem passing by.

This was the first time they saw a walking humanoid clay.

Moritz and the instructors next to him didn't stop him, they just shook their heads and laughed.

When they saw the clay golem for the first time, they were also full of surprise. Passing through the camp, the group then entered the cave.

After seeing the stone golems stationed along the way, the students were amazed again.

After that, the group came out of the Stalactite Cave, rode a manta ray through the quiet lake, and landed on the island in the center of the lake.

There was already a human-faced lion waiting on the shore of the lake, taking them to the assessment location.

During the whole process, all the students were confused and marveled all the way. They felt that everything they saw was so weird and novel that they had never seen it before.

"Is this the underworld?"

Sorano murmured in a low voice, with an expression of surprise on his pretty face.

Sheen and Luger also looked around with surprise.

This was the first time in their lives that they saw such a strange and strange place and strange creatures.

Everything presented before them made them seem to have entered a strange and bizarre new world.

No, that's not right.

Compared to the surface, the underground world is a completely new world.

Soon, led by the human-faced lion, the group arrived at the entrance of a cave.

The entrance is extremely huge, with a height of more than ten meters, enough to accommodate more than twenty people walking at the same time.

A lot of fluorite is embedded at the top of the cave, emitting a weak fluorescence that illuminates the area near the entrance.

The place further inside was pitch black, and the darkness looked a bit scary.

"Okay, we're here."

Moritz raised his hand to signal everyone to stop, turned around, glanced around, and said solemnly:

"The location of the assessment is this cave. There are intricate tunnels inside, like a maze, and your task is to find the crystal ball placed in the tunnel."

Moritz spread his palms, revealing the crystal ball between his palms.

The crystal ball, which is only as big as an egg, is round and translucent in light blue, with three shining stars inside.

"Each crystal ball has different points. For example, the one in my hand has three light spots representing three points."

"In the end, the crystal ball points obtained by each student are added up, which is the final score of this graduation assessment."

"The assessment time is ten hours. Once the time is up, everyone must leave immediately. No more crystal **** are allowed to be collected. In addition, it is prohibited to **** the crystal **** from other people's hands. Let me remind you that there are red-eyed crows in the cave who are responsible for monitoring the assessment situation, so don't Attempt to violate the rules.”

"In addition, there are monsters stationed near the crystal ball. The higher the score of the crystal ball, the more powerful the monsters stationed. It is best for everyone to act according to their ability."

"Now everyone takes the photosensitive medicine and rests in place for ten minutes, and then the assessment begins."

Moritz waved his hand, and an instructor immediately stood up and distributed photosensitizers to everyone.

After taking the potion, the students immediately felt that their vision became clearer, no longer as dim as before.

"How amazing!"

"Is this the wizard's potion? It's amazing!"

"I can finally see my surroundings clearly."

Many students were amazed, and more people began to prepare for the battle.

Sheen also began to check the weapons and equipment and make final preparations.

Although he is confident in his own strength, there are many elites in the fourth grade and there are still many strong opponents. He will not take it lightly.

Ten minutes passed quickly.

As Moritz announced the start of the assessment, the students entered the cave one after another.

"come on!"

"You too!"

After encouraging each other, Sheen, Ruger and Solano separated at the fork near the entrance and entered different tunnels.

As we went deeper, we encountered more and more forks in the road, and the students gradually dispersed.

Not long after, all the students around Sheen disappeared, leaving him alone.

There was deathly silence in the dark underground passage, with only the faint sound of footsteps echoing.

Xian carefully observed the surroundings and subconsciously clenched the hilt of the sword in his hand.

The air was cold and humid, with a biting ice coldness, which made Sheen particularly uncomfortable when entering the underground world for the first time.

Fortunately, I took the photosensitive medicine in advance, so I didn’t have to worry about not being able to see the surrounding environment clearly.

After walking for a while, Sheen keenly discovered that every once in a while, there was a crow hanging upside down from the top of the cave. Its eyes were still a rare blood-like red, and there was a layer of hard scales on its body.

"Is this the red-eyed crow that the dean said?"

After several careful tests, Sheen found that these red-eyed crows were motionless and just staring at him. He immediately confirmed his guess and ignored them, passing directly under them.

After walking for more than a hundred meters, he encountered a fork in the road with three tunnels in total.

There was a strange rustling sound coming from the tunnel on the far left.

Sheen hesitated and chose the tunnel on the far left.

Where there are monsters, there is a greater chance of a crystal ball appearing.

Not far away, dense blood-red light spots suddenly lit up in the darkness ahead.

After taking a closer look, I discovered that they were pairs of red, cold beast eyes.

Squeak!

Accompanied by a sharp cry, a group of rats suddenly rushed out of the darkness, like crazy beasts rushing towards Sheen at high speed.

Xian's expression was condensed, but he did not panic. He quickly retreated to the corner, leaning against the rock wall and preparing to face the enemy.

Dragon Heart Knight Academy not only teaches how to practice, but also teaches practical combat skills.

In addition to the daily competition and sparring between students, there are also many practical courses of fighting wild beasts in the wild.

When it comes to fighting, Sheen is no longer a newbie.

Swinging his sword, he cut a rat into two pieces. Then, Sheen shoulder-bumped another rat away that was trying to attack him. The blade in his hand trembled violently, tearing the air and slashing hard forward.

Ripple slash!

Buzz!

A low hum suddenly erupted in the void.

A strong force suddenly burst out, tearing apart more than a dozen rats in front of them, and an obvious blank space suddenly appeared in the dense group of rats!

Such a powerful attack brought the crazy rat swarm to a standstill.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Sheen quickly adjusted his breathing and swung his sword to kill two more mice.

He could finally see that the combat power of these monsters was not much stronger than that of ordinary people, that is, there were more of them. As long as they were not under siege, any knight could easily deal with them.

After a while, Sheen successfully wiped out the rats.

Stepping over the dense rat corpses on the ground, he hurried towards the direction where the rats rushed out. He soon saw the stone pillar standing in the center of the tunnel, with a crystal ball placed at the top.

Three points of light shone inside.

"Get three points!"

Sheen picked up the crystal ball with an excited look on his face.

Taking a deep breath, he continued walking forward.

After reaping the rewards, he became even more motivated.
