Mage Adam Chapter 40: egg
Adam handed a few things to Elliott indifferently. Elliott's surprise in his heart rose for a while. Although he had expected that the reward would not be too small, he did not expect that there would be so many.
Let's not talk about the contract, this is what Adam really deserves, and the tower can't owe anything in this regard. The meanings of the other items are different. The materialized runes come from the Second Elemental Sacred Tower. This kind of rune that allows apprentices to obtain portable space at this stage is of great value. This is the only copy among the apprentices of Moldo College. , the library pass represents the tower's optimism about Adam's future, which is a veiled win.
The most incredible thing was the egg, which Elliot held up to Adam and said, "I can't believe the tower will reward you with something of this rank. It looks like it came from the abyss, my friend. , you must be careful, the abyss creatures are chaotic and evil, if your strength can't overwhelm it, you will be eaten by it."
Adam took the news to heart, but had no worries about being overtaken by his own pet? impossible.
Adam said plainly: "This is a reward from Master Victor. He said that I helped him solve a big problem," and then he asked a little strangely: "Also, you know the trial in nine months. What's going on?"
Eliot reluctantly returned the four items to Adam, muttering, "If you're willing to sell them, you'll be rich in an instant. That's really enviable!" Then Eliot gloated. To Adam: "You still don't know the trial, ha, I forgot, you've been in the lab lately."
Then Elliot told Adam the reason for the trial, Adam frowned, whether the apprentice hated him didn't make any sense to him, he only cared about the trial itself, with his strength, if the trial only If it is carried out among this group of apprentices, Adam can easily destroy them all, but through the information revealed in the words of Victor Master, the trial is obviously impossible to be so simple.
Adam asks Elliott, "Do you know how the trial works?"
Elliot shook his head: "Every time is different, sometimes all the apprentices are thrown into the secret realm to kill each other, and the qualified survive; sometimes they are thrown into the habitat of monsters, and the survivors are qualified. This depends on The college's arrangements are made."
Adam didn't get any useful information from Elliott, but he doesn't need to worry too much. Since it's a trial, he won't be able to escape the battle. Just be prepared for the battle. There are still nine months before Adam can pass the test. The convenience of reading for free. Master as much magic as you can.
"And this egg." Adam jolted it, if it could be hatched within nine months, it would be useful... huh? Adam does not know the growth cycle of this alien creature, and it remains to be doubted what use a 'baby' can do.
......
Adam thought about his own affairs along the way and did not choose to fly back to the laboratory, which also made the apprentices see Adam again with strange hatred eyes.
"Can a genius do whatever he wants?"
"Can a genius ignore the lives of others?"
"Why are we in the same group with this kind of person, this damn, selfish..."
The idea of these people is very strange. They will not find reasons from themselves, nor will they take the initiative to fight for the right to choose. Instead, they passively go with the flow and complain that the water does not flow according to their own intentions.
They only dared to say to themselves in their hearts, or complained in a low voice, and even dared not let Adam hear. Not long ago, Adam's shot had a very good effect. At least no idiots jumped out to disturb him. They knew that Adam really will kill.
William looked at Adam from a distance, struggling.
Of the desert island apprentices, only the four of them survived. Ophelia disappeared after joining the laboratory, Krystal was accepted as a disciple by the official mage, and Adam exuded a radiance that could not be concealed. Only he , completely obliterated by everyone, and what is even more tragic is that he can't find a way out.
The affinity of the soul fire element used to make him proud, but when he arrived at the academy, he realized that it was worthless, and there was no way for people to look at him. It can be imagined that after the trial, the situation of the academy will undergo earth-shaking changes. If he does not seek change, he will sink completely.
But he has no resources and no connections. Duke Alfred's support for him is those magic items. So far, he has sold them all for power stones. magic.
So he thought of Adam, the 'companion' who had already established his own laboratory. He knew the power of psychic power from his own way and realized that this was an opportunity to change his status quo.
William looked at Adam's figure about to enter the building, and finally let out a long breath and smiled miserably. It's not a shame to admit defeat to such a person, right?
After convincing himself, William quickly caught up with Adam and shouted, "Adam, please wait."
Adam has been thinking about the hatching method of this egg. Dean Victor didn't tell him. Adam had guessed from the feeling after touching the egg shell, but he needed to go to the library to confirm. Voice: "William."
William said directly: "Adam, I apply to join your laboratory to participate in your research as... as a test item."
Adam didn't expect to hear such words, he looked at William and asked, "What is your initial mental power?"
William also did not expect Adam to ask such a question. After all, there were conflicts before, and William was ready to be directly rejected or even humiliated, but now Adam's attitude towards him is no different from that of a stranger.
"Sure enough, Adam never took me seriously."
William came to this conclusion in disappointment, and Qiangzi replied: "3.75."
James is a low-qualified sample, Frank is a special sample, then William can be used as a normal sample, and obtaining data from multiple samples can help improve meditation - this is what Adam thought after seeing the contract of sharing , any research needs to consume a huge amount of resources, and the biggest source of resources he currently gets is psychic power. In this case, it is better to turn the research to universality.
Of course, the role of the test product is to save him some time, and he only needs to deal with the problems that have been summarized.
Thinking of this, Adam said to William: "Okay, report to my laboratory early tomorrow morning, and I will prepare the contract in advance."
After Adam finished speaking, he turned and left. It was just a trivial matter. It is foreseeable that when the power of mind really spreads, many people will come to apply for joining. Whether or not there is William among these people makes no difference to Adam.
......
I haven't been to the library for a long time. The first floor is much busier than before. Adam also discovered a strange phenomenon. Some apprentices would gather together to read a book.
"Adam." "Adam."
Several senior apprentices who stayed on the first floor greeted Adam, which attracted the attention of the rookies. Their gazes at Adam were no different from those of the previous ones. The funny thing was that when Adam passed by, they would also bring along Awe and fear out of the way.
After returning the salutes one by one, Adam walked over to the Shelf of Heterogeneous Plane and began to check the information on the Abyss Plane.
Adam didn't pay attention to these books before, because he knew that he was far from being able to participate in the plane war, and there was no need to waste power stones here.
Through the book Adam learned that the abyss plane is a kind of chaotic and disorderly distorted plane. This type of plane has no civilization. Every creature has to fight and kill continuously from the beginning to take away the resources for survival. Follows instinct, is gifted, and can increase destructive power through constant devouring.
Adam puts the book back on the shelf. This general introduction doesn't help him, and he walks up to the second floor of the library for the first time.
Like most buildings, the library is in the shape of a tower. The higher the level, the higher the knowledge~IndoMTL.com~ The less books there are. Adam is a person with a strong purpose. Although he is curious about magic knowledge, he Without stopping, I went straight to the bookshelf of other planes, and sure enough, I found what I needed here - "The Incubation and Cultivation of Abyss Creatures".
"The abyss life is a peculiar life, their evolution is chaotic cruel, the more powerful the more disorderly. Their recipes cover all, ether, energy, flesh and blood, there is nothing they can't devour. And this This engulfment is one-sided, there is only entry and no return.”
Adam looked at the first sentence of the opening and thoughtful. According to the earth, life is the only entropy decrease phenomenon in the closed entropy increase system of the universe, but in this high magic world, there will be entropy increase life. , that is to say, after the abyss creatures are powerful to a certain extent, they will destroy the plane they are in, and then turn to invade the other planes.
Adam feels that this is no different from the mage, the difference is that the mage will feed back into the mage world by invading other planes.
The shape of abyss creatures is not fixed, and their appearance is often beyond the scope of description, but the method of hatching is nothing special. This kind of thing is very good to support, as long as there is enough energy and enough flesh and blood. But the point is that at the very beginning of incubation, the master-servant contract should be continuously portrayed with one's own blood and spiritual power, so that it will be controlled by the mage.
The rune group of the master-servant contract is not complicated. It took Adam less than an hour to memorize it. However, the master-servant contract is not signed and you can sit back and relax. If the master of the master cannot keep up with the servant's strength The growth rate, the servant will definitely backlash.
The last line of warnings in the book attracted Adam's attention: Abyss creatures are not allowed to appear on the Mage plane after reaching the first level, otherwise they will be destroyed by the guardian of the world.
