Chapter 662 Retest

Mr. Albert Franklin, the current dean of the Offensive Institute, personally presided over the re-examination.

This archmage is also a great writer who has written a lot. Over the years, he has been engaged in magic research and teaching work, and often writes articles in newspapers and periodicals, dedicated to promoting "rationalism", "religious freedom" and "rule of law". The Enlightenment thought with "spirit" as the core, enjoys a high reputation from the New World to the Old World.

Dean Franklin is over 60 years old, short in stature, but has a surprisingly large face. His gray curly hair that hangs down to his shoulders is all combed back neatly, and he doesn't mind showing his broad forehead due to the receding hairline.

The long protruding chin and tight lips show the old man's stubborn and passionate personality. His wise eyes are surrounded by numerous fine wrinkles and deep bags under the eyes, but they do not damage his insight.

After the short welcome speech, Mr. Dean read the discipline of the examination room in a sonorous tone, and summed it up to be nothing more than one principle:

Once any cheating behavior is discovered, the qualification for the exam will be disqualified immediately, and you will never be admitted!

Qiao An listened silently to Mr. Dean's lecture, while turning his eyes to the examination venue opposite.

The puppet placed against the wall looks like a target for casting spells. It is obviously just a puppet covered with leather, but it emits a faint wave of life. It can be seen that it is temporarily activated by a spell. It can withstand the bombardment of fireballs like a puppet, and it can also Like living creatures, it is the target of spells such as sleep.

Sure enough, as Joan guessed, when Mr. Dean talked about the examination rules, he specially introduced those puppet targets to all candidates.

"Children, these puppets have been given special activation spells. You can use them as ordinary targets, as the target of lethal spells, or you can chant a spell to switch the puppets into living body mode. Used to display enchantment spells, like this—"

Mr. Dean snapped his fingers casually, and the magic net in the examination room trembled.

Not far away, a puppet seemed to sense the call of the old mage, and walked straight towards him with stiff steps.

"Very well, my puppet friend, you may stop now."

Mr. Dean snapped his fingers again, and the magic net distributed around the doll twisted again.

At this time, only the right foot of the puppet is on the ground, and the left foot is lifted into the air. Just about to step forward, affected by the spell, the puppet fell into a state of stillness, maintaining the strange posture of one foot independent, which attracted a lot of laughter.

After the laughter, all the young mages in the hall couldn't help applauding.

Those who are qualified to stand here are all young heroes in the field of arcane magic, not only outstanding in talent, but also not lacking in vision and insight. Of course, it can be seen that Mr. Dean cast two spells just now while talking and laughing. It is the 5th level "Dominate Human Beings" and the 3rd level "Human Confinement". The purpose is to show young people that the puppet target can be used as the target of this type of enchantment spell.

Mr. Dean is a well-known archmage in the world of Vales. No one will be surprised that he used a 5-ring spell. The problem is that Mr. Dean did not chant mantras during the casting process, nor did he make complex casting gestures. Pay attention to observe, you can hardly feel that he is casting spells, this is too powerful!

Mr. Dean's inadvertently revealed hand has no cool sound and light effects, laymen can't see how difficult it is, but insiders will be deeply impressed by it.

All the candidates at the scene, including Qiao An, applauded Mr. Dean spontaneously almost at the same time, which also proved from another aspect that none of the sixty-one young mages who came to participate in the re-examination was an idiot and had good knowledge !

After understanding the exam rules, Mr. Dean gave candidates ten minutes to prepare. During this period, all the candidates are thinking about their own test-taking strategies and how to show their spellcasting talents in the most intuitive way.

The spellcasting method demonstrated by Mr. Dean just now is not a strategy worthy of reference by young people, and candidates have to worry about its hidden risks.

With the help of "advanced internal vision", it is not difficult for candidates to find that the doll target is in a living form, and its physical attributes are similar to those of ordinary adults, with strength, agility, physique, intelligence, perception and charm all being 10.

Casting a spell of the enchantment system on such a target, such as "Deep Sleep", if the caster is not strong enough or lucky enough, the spell may be resisted by the puppet target, resulting in the failure of casting the spell.

Although this probability is very small, it exists after all. No one wants to take risks in the examination room, let alone embarrass themselves in front of other candidates and examiners. It is safer to cast spells that have more intuitive effects and cannot be resisted.

There are some things in the world that always go against the intuition of the public.

For example, in the two groups of "fools" and "smart people", people always think that fools have simple ideas, while smart people have more whimsical ideas.

Sometimes, however, the opposite is true. It is the fool's ideas that are more imaginative, illogical, and unpredictable, while the ideas of the smart people are more or less the same—because smart people always try to take shortcuts, and there are usually only one or two shortcuts.

Candidates who came to take the re-examination were undoubtedly worthy of the evaluation of "smart" among their peers, and they all appeared to be very individual in daily life, but when they walked into the examination room, the spells they chose to display were surprisingly similar—or Either "Fireball" or "Lightning Beam".

Joan's appearance order was ranked 47th, and he had ample opportunity to watch other candidates demonstrate their spells. As a result, looking at the present from the beginning, there are no fewer than 10 candidates throwing fireballs on the field, and there are no fewer than this number of candidates who shoot "lightning beams" at the dolls.

What's going on here?

Did everyone make a private appointment before the exam, only to demonstrate "Fireball" or "Lightning Beam"?

Joan shook his head, denying this unrealistic idea. After all, some candidates chose to show other spells, such as "Frost Nova".

Since it was not agreed in advance, why did so many people choose to demonstrate the same spell?

After a little thought, Joan realized the internal logic of this phenomenon.

The purpose of the re-examination is to test the candidate's ability to cast spells. Obviously, only the highest-level spells currently mastered can reflect the highest level of a spell caster.

Among the candidates present, except for a few sorcerers who have 6 spellcasting levels, the rest are all 5th-level mages. Level 3 spells are the limit of everyone's spellcasting ability.

Among all the third-level spells, the spells of the evocation school undoubtedly have the most dazzling visual effects, and the magic output is relatively stable.

The fireball and lightning hit the target with as much power as it should be. There is no possibility of being resisted, and it can leave an intuitive and strong impression on the examiner.

With these potential benefits, as long as candidates are not fools, or are really arrogant and arrogant, they will of course give priority to displaying evocation spells, and "fireball" and "lightning beam" are the most practical and popular 3-ring evocation spells It is not surprising that they appear in the examination room in a concentrated manner.

That's the truth, but Joan still thinks it's so boring...
