A little girl at a magic school, she's a goofy troublemaker who can do anything.
Chapter 3 The Long Road to Assessment
The magic in this world is somewhat different from what Li Wenyin imagined.
In a world where technology and magic coexist, magic here is more like a science that utilizes magical elements.
Every spell has a corresponding precise formula, which is called a spell. Great magicians, like great mathematicians, leave behind a large number of complex and obscure formulas for later generations to decipher and calculate again and again.
Because of the existence of magical elements in the world, and because some people possess magical power, a series of magical arts were born.
Using magic is like calculating and deducing the magical power within one's body in real time, transforming it into various strange magical abilities for output.
It tests one's own magical power and ability to use spells.
Analogous to the mathematics of Cheng Liwenyin's world, it's like casting a spell to stop a boulder that's about to crash into you. It involves rapidly calculating the boulder's impact force, wind direction, wind speed, and all related causes and effects using precise and complex formulas in your mind. After calculating the correct answer, you "borrow" your magic power to form a spell that blocks the boulder's impact.
In short, learning magic is extremely difficult.
As Li Wenyin read, she became increasingly confused.
She initially thought it was just a Mary Sue novel, but the details of the settings were so exquisite and reasonable that it felt like she was entering the world of science: the wonders of magic.
For specific spells, such as silencing spells and flying spells, they cannot be solved simply by using spell formulas. They are like problems that combine various formulas and require you to calculate and deduce them yourself.
Because everyone's weight is different, the force required for flight is different, and everyone's desire to speak is different, the strength of the silencing is also different. These factors are all variables, and you need to understand and feel them during the process of casting the spell.
Just like the advanced function problems in a calculus exam, they can never be solved by simply applying formulas.
Li Wenyin finally understood why some students could never learn flying magic in their entire lives, just as she herself had never been able to solve indefinite integrals in her entire life.
What an ingenious design.
Li Wenyin sighed as she flipped through the books with a headache.
However, compared to math problems written on paper, magic, which is equally difficult and obscure, is much more interesting. Once a spell is successfully cast, the effect is immediate and significant.
It is indeed possible to stop a rolling boulder through deduction and calculation.
Having successfully grasped the essence of magic and sensed its existence, Li Wenyin felt something strange about her body.
Within my body, a current of energy I had never noticed before was slowly surging; this must be what is known as magic.
As Li Wenyin turned the pages of the book, she saw more and more spells, and her perception of the magical power within her body became increasingly intense.
She could clearly feel a power flowing slowly within her body, obeying her commands.
Li Wenyin decided to give it a try.
She glanced at the first spell on the first line of the open book and silently recited it in her mind.
"sieve."
A small sound rang out, and a bright flame lit up on the corner of the book.
Li Wenyin was excited.
She succeeded! She successfully used basic ignition magic!
At the same time, Li Wenyin also felt that some of the magic power in her body had been used up.
This should be the "equivalent substitution" between magic and spell.
However, not only did her magic power decrease slightly, but Li Wenyin's mind also went blank for a moment.
Wait, that's not right.
This is a library!
Li Wenyin jumped up and frantically tried to extinguish the flames. The noise attracted the attention of a senior student from Oakwood College who was in charge of managing the books.
The senior in the light green school uniform saw Li Wenyin hiding here. She wasn't wearing the oak school uniform, and there was a burnt smell.
His expression hardened, and he demanded, "Who are you? What are you doing here?"
Li Wenyin guiltily hid the book with a burnt corner, and looked at the senior with a smirk: "Actually, I came in by accident, do you believe me, senior?"
Of course I don't believe it.
And so the following scene unfolded.
Li Wenying, clutching a stack of books, ran frantically ahead, holding on tightly and refusing to let go, shouting as she ran, "Senior, don't chase me! I'm really just studying! Just looking!"
"You despicable book thief! Stop right there!"
The senior from Oakwood College chased after him, cursing as he went.
"I can smell burning! Which college sent you as a spy to burn my Oaks House books?!"
One of them was running ahead, and the other was chasing behind. The girl in front looked thin and was carrying a large stack of books, but she ran extremely fast. The senior student behind her was panting and chasing after her, getting more and more annoyed.
Other students who came to the library to study saw this scene and exclaimed: What the hell is going on?
-
Student council detention room.
As luck would have it, the person imprisoned was none other than the student council president, Yu Chi Quan.
Holding the report in his hand, he looked down at it and said, "On the third day of school, you stole books and set fire to the oak library. Li, you've surprised me quite a bit."
Li Wenyin sat obediently in the chair in the solitary confinement room, enduring the scolding.
Yu Chi Quan spoke softly and gently, but this time Li Wenyin keenly detected a hint of reproach in his voice.
That's normal; Li Wenyin really did commit a crime this time.
"There was a little accident involved..." Li Wenyin explained guiltily.
Yu Chi Quan looked at her with a smile, as if listening to how she had come to this unexpected conclusion.
"That Oakwood senior exaggerated. It wasn't enough to burn down the library; at most, it was just a... small flame."
Li Wenyin gestured and used her fingers to mimic the feeling of small breasts.
"Really, it's very small."
Yuchi Quan: "So small?"
"Really, really," Li Wenyin nodded, "it's that small."
Yu Chi Quan: "What about stealing books and breaking into the Oak Library? Aren't those also exaggerated?"
this......
Li Wenyin lowered her head, her voice weakening.
She had no way to refute it.
The student council president looks gentle and smiling, so why does she speak so sharply?
Sigh, after a day of commotion, because Li Wenyin was caught setting fire to books, the senior student from Oak College reported and protested to the student council, and Li Wenyin's assessment for admission to Oak College was also cancelled.
But Li Wenyin is like an unkillable cockroach, a shameless queen.
Li Wenyin held a positive and optimistic attitude towards the assessments conducted by the Poppy Institute and the Ocean Institute.
-
She was kept in solitary confinement until evening before being released.
Li Wenyin rested in the abandoned school building for a night, and the next day, she appeared at the entrance of Poppy Academy in high spirits.
Noble, vibrant, proud, and ambitious.
The motto of the Poppy Academy left a deep impression on Li Wenyin, not only because of the bright red school uniform and the iconic poppy flower, but also because...
The Poppy House was mostly filled with female students.
It is said that the ratio of women to men is nine to one. The proud and ambitious poppies are skilled in high-tech magic research and have created one miracle after another.
Li Wenyin hid behind the weeds in the poppy garden and watched as the confident, flamboyant, noble and beautiful senior girls came and went.
The bright red school uniforms of Poppy Academy are different on everyone, whether by magic or by design.
However, they were very strict about wearing school uniforms, and Li Wenyin couldn't sneak in; she was stopped several times.
Poppy House is also the only one of the four colleges where students have their uniforms checked at the entrance.
If Li Wenyin doesn't sneak in to audit the classes, she won't be able to learn about magic research and complete the assessment.
So she decided to get herself a fake school uniform first.
Where can you find such bright red fabric?
Li Wenyin was in a dilemma.
Search around the school; you'll find something eventually.
Li Wenyin dutifully became a street urchin at the school, wandering around until she finally spotted a bright red cloth fluttering on a clothesline next to a flower field near the Poppy Garden.
The color of the cloth was exactly the same as the uniform of the Poppy School.
Li Wenyin looked left and right, but no one was there. She bowed apologetically to the red cloth and wrote an IOU next to it.
"Borrow it, return it later. — Li Wenyin"
Then he quickly stole the red cloth, huddled in a corner and started cutting it up, barely managing to make a piece of clothing, which he then put on himself.
Li Wenyin went to the entrance of the Poppy Garden.
The senior student checking the school uniforms looked her up and down, paused for a moment, and then said, "Your taste is quite unique."
Li Wenyin patted her chest and said, "This is my aesthetic sense, please don't be offended."
Although the senior student's expression was somewhat indescribable, she still let her in.
Not long after, Li Wenyin was taken away by the student council.
-
Solitary confinement.
The familiar ceiling, the familiar chair, and the familiar Li Wenyin sitting here.
Student council president Yu Chiquan sat on another chair, his legs crossed, his silver-white ankle boots moving rhythmically as he pondered.
Li Wenyin swallowed hard, not daring to look up.
Yu Chi Quan held an IOU between two fingers and said gently, "You cut up the Poppy Institute's flag and made ugly clothes, defaming the Poppy Institute's image. Li Wenyin, do you have any objections to this?"
"What ugly clothes tarnishing the image of the Poppy House... I didn't!"
Li Wenyin stood up for a moment, but then became guilty under Yu Chiquan's gaze that said, "Go on, I'm listening."
How could she know that the red cloth was, by some strange twist of fate, the material for the Poppy Garden's new banner? It had no pattern on it at all... Li Wenyin really thought it was some unwanted rag.
Well... Li Wenyin really doesn't have much to refute, but deliberately creating ugly clothes to smear the Poppy House's image, that's absolutely not true! This is a false accusation! A false accusation!
Yu Chiquan understood what she meant: "So you mean it's true that the hospital flag was cut down?"
Li Wenyin's stiff neck shrank back again.
"According to the rules, Li, you'll be punished with four hours of solitary confinement today," Yu Chiquan stood up. "Burning down the Oak Library, cutting down the Poppy House flag—what kind of surprise will Li Wenyin bring me tomorrow?"
These words sounded sarcastic and unpleasant. Li Wenyin vaguely suspected that something was off about Yu Chiquan's gentle and kind smile.
She coughed twice and assured him, "Don't worry, President, it's really kind of me to bother you every day. I definitely won't come to see you tomorrow!"
Yu Chi Quan smiled without saying a word, gently placed the complaint report in front of Li Wenyin, smiled gently, and then left the confinement room.
Li Wenyin glanced down at the complaint report. The student council president's handwriting was sharp and assertive, and it seemed to carry a deep and penetrating hatred.
Li Wenyin shuddered, her body trembling, and obediently went to solitary confinement.
Oh dear, after this incident, the Poppy Institute's assessment is also ruined.
Only the Canghai Academy remains, for the assessment of the sleeping potion.
Canghai Academy... Canghai Academy is great, she even has connections there.
-
Nangong Zhi was eating in the cafeteria when a face suddenly appeared in front of him, making him lose his appetite.
"Senior Nangong, do you know how to make a sleeping potion in just one day from scratch?"
Li Wenyin leaned against Nangong Zhi's table, resting her chin on the table as she looked at him.
Nangong Zhi raised his chin high, gave him a cold, disdainful look, and parted his thin lips slightly: "Get lost."
"Don't be so cold, senior. We're pretty close now, right?" Li Wenyin said patiently as she moved closer.
Nangong Zhi couldn't understand what she was talking about. What made them so familiar with each other? Was it the dragging during the sorting ceremony or her sudden attack in the men's restroom?
Nangong Zhi put down his chopsticks.
Li Wenyin eagerly awaited the answer, wondering if Nangong Zhi was about to take pity on her and offer some guidance.
Then Nangong Zhigai picked up his magic wand.
"Hey, wait a minute," Li Wenyin quickly dodged, holding up her hand to block in front of her. "Senior, just give me a little hint, don't ban me again."
If he silenced her again, she would continue to pester him day and night like a ghost.
Nangong Zhi stopped moving and stared at the shameless Li Wenyin with a death stare. He knew from the previous experience that this person would really find a way to annoy him to death.
So, Nangong Zhi spoke up with great impatience.
"The Sleeping Potion is a third-year skill; you can't learn it."
"What if?"
Li Wenyin was not giving up and continued to ask.
"Do you have any recipes or anything? I'd like to try making them, even if I can't do it."
Nangong Zhi stared at her with a deathly gaze.
Li Wenyin looked at him with wide, expectant eyes.
"this."
Nangong Zhi picked up his magic wand and waved it twice in the air. Lines of words were written in the air and finally floated down into a piece of paper with the method written on it, which landed on the table.
"Wow! Senior is amazing!" Li Wenyin quickly reached out to take it.
As a result, Nangong Zhi snatched the paper away first.
Li Wenyin: "?"
"You're not allowed to bother me again." Nangong Zhi glared at her coldly.
Li Wenyin nodded vigorously, knowing that getting the preparation method was the most important thing.
-
We successfully obtained the materials list and production instructions.
Li Wenyin went to the back mountain of the magic academy.
The magic academy occupies almost an entire island. The libraries of the four academies are not open to the public, but the fields for basic magic herb materials are public.
Li Wenyin could go there and pick the ingredients freely according to the recipe, but she still encountered difficulties.
"Um... exactly how much is 'appropriate amount' in 'appropriate amount of snake grass'? What kind of spoon is 'a spoonful of sleeping salt'? And this... deadly chili pepper? Is this an ingredient used in sleeping potions? Nangong Zhi isn't lying to me, is he?!"
