I changed into a prom dress in the boys' locker room, and the crisp tuxedo on me always made me feel like I should wear a rapier at my waist, maybe it would be cooler.Just as I was agonizing over my whim, I noticed that almost all the other boys in the dressing room were wearing decorative swords, which looked like cabbage on the bad street, and I immediately canceled the idea.I remembered that there was still a tiger's eye stone drum in the magic fanny pack in the closet, so I simply tied the stone drum around my waist with a cloth belt.There has been a different atmosphere in the college, the sky has gradually darkened, the eaves on the roof of the teaching building, on the windows, on the brocade trees on both sides of the road, and on the branches of the incense trees have been hung with various festival lights, and the colorful neon lights are reflected on the faces of the girls on the roadside, and no matter how familiar people will look at her again.There is no place for such a grand ball of thousands of people, only the square where the Warrior Academy usually drills is the most suitable for such a large ball, and it has been the case in previous years.The gardeners who are responsible for setting up the lanterns have begun to evacuate one after another, they have completed the final debugging work, the gramophone on the amplification magic array in the square has not yet been installed, at this time, the director of discipline in the academy Rose has been impatient to stand aside, holding a magic book as a fan and fanning the wind, his forehead has a trace of sweat, but it is not good to urge the magic teacher to tune too much, just keep repeating and saying: "It's okay, take your time, we still have time, there is still time." ”The tuning magic teacher turned a deaf ear, just crouched in the center of the circle, opened the box of the gramophone, and carefully examined the magic pattern circle little by little, he insisted that the magic pattern must have been damaged during transportation, so that the gramophone worth twenty gold coins could not be pronounced.The magic teacher's thin body was covered in a dusty magic robe, a pair of glasses as thick as the bottom of a wine bottle rested on the bridge of his nose, and his messy hair like a chicken's nest silently told the others that its owner was a magician.There are square tables nearly a kilometer long around the playground, and the whole roll of silk is spread on the long table, and at this time, the table has begun to place fruit bowls incessantly, those golden apples with water droplets are piled up like a hill in the basin-sized fruit bowl, as well as strawberries, grapes, and honeydew melons, which are usually rare in El City, and the price of these fruits is also very expensive, and now they are placed on the cold dinner banquet in whole plates, which is also only the dance party held by the War College, which can be so luxurious.On the lawn on the side, dozens of ovens were set up, dozens of roast chickens and roast geese were constantly spinning in the ovens, the golden crispy skin was constantly dripping with grease, and the chefs in white chef hats were busy brushing honey and olive oil on the roast chickens and geese in the oven.Ya was wearing a beautiful blue evening dress, from the side of the path, hurriedly ran over, stopped next to the amplification magic array, her brows wrinkled together, anxiously looking at the thin magician in the center of the circle, at this time, the director of training Rose who was anxiously waiting on the side asked Moraya'er, "How is it?"
Did you get a spare gramophone?
”"That gramophone was sent to the magic shop for overhaul, and it hasn't been brought back yet!"
Ya tried to make her breathing as steady as she could, and in order to make her waist look slimmer, the ribbon of her petticoat seemed to have strangled her from breathing."
There's no problem with the phonograph elsewhere, right?"
Ross, the director of discipline, had no choice but to accept this fact, and now he could only pray that the magician would be able to fix the gramophone.He looked down at the magic book in his hand and said irritably, "Help me hold it!"
”After speaking, he put the book in Ya's hand, sweated back to the center of the amplification circle, and began to patiently comfort the magician: Don't rush, take your time, we still have time.Seeing that the temporary task had been completed, Ya limped to the grass on the side, Ya pulled the hem of her skirt with one hand, revealing a white calf, bent down with some difficulty, untied the shoelaces of the crystal high heels on her feet, kicked the shoes away at will, stood barefoot on the grass, rubbing her slender ankles with a bitter face.I stood under the Lianxiang tree and looked at her quietly, and she looked at me apologetically, probably because she had agreed to meet here, but she was a little late.I walked over and picked up the slipper from the grass and held it in my hand, then reached out for her arm, and she smiled happily, put her arm around me, and walked little by little to the bench on the other side of the meadow."
Didn't you tell me that you wouldn't feel tired when you ran in the jungle for days on end?"
I asked her with a smile."
When I went to the warehouse, I was in a bit of a hurry, and my foot twisted!"
As she spoke, she pulled the hem of her skirt up again, revealing her snow-white feet, the five round toes under the slender arch were very cute, but the inside of the ankles was high and swollen, and she said a little depressedly: "It seems that I can't dance!"
”I always thought of Ya as a cheerful and strong girl, but now it seems that her tenacity has exceeded my imagination, and her ankle has swollen and swollen high, but she can still endure the pain, insist on running the last part of the road, and finally complete her task.She didn't have any expression of pain, as if she had lost her sense of pain, but she was worried about not being able to dance, and I said, "Then I'll sit here with you all the time, just watch them dance, and I won't dance anyway." ”Morayal looked very happy and said, "Maybe not, don't forget that I'm a magician!"
”I was curious about the seeds that found a few seeds in the package, and the green nuts that looked like acorns had intricate patterns on their husks, and I asked Morayal, "Where did you get these powerful seeds?"
”She smiled and said to me, "Wood mages have a companion profession, they are all excellent botanists, and cultivating seeds with strange abilities is only part of the knowledge. ”I've been influenced by old Kuru since I was a child, and I have a great interest in potions, so since Morayar can give birth to some plant seeds, I asked her more curiously, "Can you control the growth of some magical herbs?"
”Morayar poked my forehead directly with her finger and said with a smile: "What do you think!
Even if you are a great mage or a mage, you can't give birth to magic herbs!
Otherwise, how could those magic potions be so expensive, hey, you'll know the value of magic potions later!
”As he was talking, a series of crackling bean-like sounds came from the amplification magic array on the other side of the lawn, and the people around him didn't know what was going on, and they looked over in a daze, but saw the director of discipline Ross looking at the thin magician with shock and anger, at this time he was holding the expensive gramophone in both hands, his whole face was covered with black ash, the thick eyes at the bottom of the bottle had now completely turned into sunglasses, and his messy hair had been burned to black smoke, Thankfully, his magic robes had some fire resistance, so he didn't catch fire.But his face was gloomy.Morayar hurriedly asked me to help her over, after all, she is also a magician, to see if there is anything I can do to help.However, at this time, the director of discipline was completely on the verge of breaking out, and if it weren't for the other party's reputation in the academy and his status as a magician, I am afraid that Ross, the director of discipline, would have gone crazy on the spot."
The magic rune on the silver metal plate in the front part is broken, I was going to connect it, but at the last moment, my hand shook a little, hey!
My hands are unstable, and I am destined to become a master. ”The magician, who could not tell his age, muttered to himself, looking much older at this moment, and it seemed that the failure to repair the gramophone had hit him hard, and he probably had some doubts about the rest of his life.Rose, the director of discipline, held back his anger, I saw that his hands in his sleeves were trembling, he looked at the black gramophone in the arms of the magician, and still asked without giving up: "Scholar Yerkes, can this magic machine still be repaired?"
”Magician Yerkis was asked by the director of discipline Ross's face darkened, and he called himself a scholar, obviously with some slight irony, this is just a standard phonograph, produced in the processing plant opened by the goblin people in the magic industrial park of the imperial capital, although ingenious, but the principle of the core mechanism has long been cracked, and now in the practical class of the magic machinery class in the Royal Academy of Magic of Green, the magicians who come here are required to assemble a phonograph similar to this model.
I just repaired the magic pattern on the magic metal plate, accidentally damaged the magic pattern, triggered the core device, and made the core energy area magic crystal explode, in fact, such a simple matter, only need to change a piece of silver metal plate in the front part, it can be solved.Yerkis was silent for a moment, and after weighing between repairing and not cultivating, he raised his head and said, "I can still cultivate, but I need an assistant!"
My hand is injured and I can't hold the pen anymore, but this silver metal plate is fortunately not damaged, as long as I repair the magic pattern circle on it and add a new fragment of the magic crystal, I can use it again. ”Director Ross's eyes darkened, and he said in his heart: It's so late, where can I find you an assistant!
At this moment, Morayal, who was beside me, spoke, "Can I?"
”The two of them were stunned for a moment, Yawei smiled and said, "I'm a wood magician, I can be your assistant!"
”"I'll look at your left hand."
At this time, the magician Yerkis suddenly said.Ya didn't think much about it, and just spread out the hand holding my arm and stretched it out.The skin on her hands is delicate, and her fingers are slender, but not very white, a healthy wheat color.However, after she let go of her hand, the strain on her injured ankle made her feel a pain in her ankle, Ya frowned slightly, gritted her teeth and didn't snort."
Hey, you're hurt?"
Magician Yerkis asked, and then looked carefully at Ya's hand, but he shook his head again and again and sighed and said: "You seem to have an injury to your ankle, it can be seen from your hand that when you were studying in the Academy of Magic, you hardly held a magic carving pen, you have no foundation in drawing inscriptions, and you are injured, it is easy to fail!"
”When Ya heard this, he said embarrassedly: "Scholar Yerkes, I am in the academy, and I have taken magic potions, but I have not studied Mingxue. ”She didn't stand on her feet at this point, and her body turned upside down to me, and I reached out to help her, and my hands tightly wrapped around her arms to stabilize her body.Yerkis was staring at my hand at this time, he was worried that he couldn't see it really, he reached out and wiped his glasses like the bottom of his wine bottle, and then took two steps forward, there was a light in his eyes, and asked me directly: "You come to help me do it?"
”I shook my head and said, "Me?
But I'm not a magician!
”"I've seen you at the Academy of Magic, you're an apprentice in magic, that's enough!"
Yerkis put down the gramophone in his hand, stepped forward and took my hand to examine it carefully, and then said again in affirmation.The director of discipline, Ross and Morayal, looked at Yerkis in surprise, and they both wondered if this magician had just exploded and damaged his brain, and actually asked the new magic apprentice who had just entered the school for less than a month to repair the gramophone, maybe the gramophone was broken to the point that it could not be repaired, and he was looking for a step to go down for himself!
At this time, there were already a lot of people gathered on the side of the amplification circle, and I saw that things could not continue to be deadlocked, so I said to Yerkes: "Okay, you tell me what to do!"
”When Yerkis saw that I had agreed, he smiled and picked up the phonograph and returned to the center of the amplification circle.I was going to help Morayar to the edge of the circle and wait for me, but I feared that if I failed, the explosion would hurt her.But she stubbornly said, "I'm going to stand by and watch." ”When I saw that she insisted, I didn't persuade her, but she followed me.Magician Yerkis sat in front of the phonograph, quietly waiting for me, watching me come over, directly handed a sharp magic engraving pen into my hand, removed a piece of silver metal plate from the gramophone, and began to explain to me the principle of this front part of the metal plate, seeing him rambling a bunch of useless words, the head of discipline Rose, who was standing on the side, had a green face.I reached out and took the simple style of the magic pen, a gentle magic came from the pen, listening to him talk about the recording principle of the gramophone magic pattern, for a while I was dizzy, but every time the scholar said a long magic principle, he would think of a way to disassemble it, and tell me little by little, gradually in my mind, has formed a general plan.At the end, he asked me, "Is there anything I don't understand?"
”I was sweating profusely, and I barely understood it at all!
But I don't want to dwell on it here, since he has already said the plan to repair it, I can only bite the bullet and say: "I want a piece of magic parchment, draw this plan on the parchment, if there is no problem with the drawing, it's not too late to change it on the silver plate." ”"Good!"
Magician Yerkis said without hesitation, and then groped around his body, but did not find half a page.His eyes saw the magic book in Morayal's hand at this time, and asked strangely, "Why is my magic book with you?"
”Morayar didn't know how to answer for a while, but the director of discipline on the side stood up, stretched out his hand to take the magic book in Ya's hand, and then said to the Yerkis scholar, "I gave it to her for safekeeping." ”Yerkes took the heavy magic book, tore a page of parchment from it, handed it to me, and said, "Draw on it!"
”There was a sudden silence all around, except for the sound of music and the breathing of the crowd in the distance.Everyone didn't expect that the Yerkes scholar would tear the book so neatly and so justifiably, you must know that every magic book is priceless, and he actually tore the book like this.
