Chapter 53 When you're sleepy or tired, just drink Lelong.
Startled, the "frizzy-haired pufferfish" sprayed its sharp spines and then darted around trying to avoid people.
Seeing this, Mina rushed forward and desperately tried to grab her golem.
However, the golem's sensor core and energy supply components have been heavily modified by Fang Qi, making them exceptionally sensitive—so sensitive that even its owner avoids them!
Mina pounced several times with all her might, causing chaos in the examination room, but the golem continued to dart around without showing any signs of fatigue.
In the end, June couldn't stand it anymore and threw out a small transparent ball, locking the golem inside.
Mina quickly ran over, caught the still-shaking ball, her gaze darting around her toes, a mix of pride and apprehension in her eyes.
"Mentor, this is a premonition-type sentinel system! It delivers a devastating blow the instant an enemy harbors murderous intent, better to kill a hundred innocent people than let one guilty person escape!"
"Moreover...it can automatically recognize the aura of powerful individuals, making it especially suitable for detecting invisible enemies!"
Mina's serious-sounding nonsense made everyone present laugh.
Fang Qi was amused as well, but he didn't forget his business. The show about the Cowardly Magic Crystal was so entertaining, it would be a shame not to take the opportunity to promote it.
Ding ding dong!
Fang Qi used the exclusive ringtone for the "European Emperor" to make his presence known.
Everyone instinctively turned to look, only to see Rosie helping the Creation Machine change its banner.
With a forceful flick, the banner unfurled:
Feeling insecure? Always getting ambushed? Sentinel Golem Core Kits are selling fast!
"Implant the 'cowardly' trait, making your golem value its life more than you do!"
"The same frizzy core style worn by my senior, stock is running low, act fast!"
Everyone is watching, and Rosie is watching too.
Even though she considered herself thick-skinned, she couldn't help but curl her tail when she saw this somewhat embarrassing slogan.
The thought of having her own special performance later on made Luo Xi's scalp tingle.
This share of the profits is so hard to get, it's all from acquaintances, it's incredibly awkward...
She decided that after passing the mentor qualification exam, she would exchange the gold coins for materials and then have Mr. Box take her on a trip, staying home as much as possible!
Doing research at home is great...
The two summoning-type female students watching, unaware of Rosie's embarrassment, actually thought the mascot was quite pretty, and began whispering to each other:
"Do you want to buy it? It feels like it can be controlled with summoning magic."
"I think this vibration frequency is fine even without control..." she muttered to herself, then continued her sister's words:
"I want to buy it. It would be really useful to send it out on adventures, but I don't know alchemy..."
"What did you say..." The sister didn't hear clearly: "Oh, you're alchemizing? Go find Mina or that mascot girl, they should both know how."
"So the question is, is there enough cat hair?"
The two glanced at the enthusiastic looks from their classmates, then at Mina's tail, and exchanged puzzled glances.
"Ahem." Zhu En cleared her throat, suppressing the noise.
"The alchemy technique... is indeed quite advanced; the sensor sensitivity has been adjusted to its limit," he said, glancing at the spikes on his colleague's clothes, pausing for a moment.
"Although the damage area is a bit wide and it's not easy to catch, I have to say it's a perfect work, I'd give it 89 points!"
"Yay!" Mina exclaimed happily. This was already one of the top three scores from last year, a rapid improvement!
Next, the students showed off their unique talents, and all sorts of bizarre things emerged, such as "Tetanus Greatsword", "Father's Love as Heavy as a Mountain Amulet", and "Alchemy Gospel Helmet for Autism".
The sight of the other faculty and students from various departments who rushed to the scene was truly eye-opening, leaving them thoroughly entertained.
"Luo Xi, it's your turn." June looked at this year's pre-selected winner, her eyes filled with anticipation.
Loxi had already put on her hat and wrapped her tail around her waist, covering herself completely with her newly bought mage robe, with a resolute expression that showed she was ready to die.
She walked onto the platform, hiding her head behind a shield.
"Loxi?" June asked, puzzled.
"Ah..." Rosie drawled out her voice as if reciting a script: "This is made from discarded rubber sheets, plus 'Metra Brain Power Drink Lelong,' so it has strong elasticity and cushioning capabilities."
The words "Metra Brain Power Drink - Lelong" were deliberately played in slow motion and emphasized, as instructed by Fang Qi.
"Le Long, what is that?" Everyone was completely confused.
There was a demonstration segment to follow, and Luo Xi didn't explain further: "Mentor, come and test us."
She turned around, pointed the shield at the target next to the podium, and showed her small face.
June couldn't understand what kind of performance art Rosie was doing, and she was in a hurry to go back and optimize the Crimson Comet, so she didn't hold back anymore and fired a standard magic missile straight at the shield.
Losi remained calm and raised the dark rubber shield.
Thump~~
Accompanied by a very bouncy sound effect, the missile not only didn't explode, but instead shot into the sky at twice the speed.
Missed the target!
"So flexible, it can even deflect magic missiles?" The instructors were all astonished, and the scene was filled with commotion.
The magic students watching below couldn't sit still any longer. Their primary means of attack was usually magical missiles, and now they were being so easily deflected by a dark shield…
Doesn't that mean that in the future, barbarians who engage in close combat will be powerless to resist if they charge in with this thing?
"What kind of new magical technology is this?! It's the magic missile I just learned!"
"Don't tell me this is mass-produced; it's a tactic I just developed..."
The students specializing in melee combat all wore expressions of delight.
With this shield, the situation where you're utterly worn down by ranged classes in battle will never happen again!
"How much are the rubber shields? I need ten, to rotate!"
"I wonder what the upper limit of the rebound is. I wish it could rebound Explosive Flame Spells..."
Explosive Flame?
That's a ranged attack spell that can only be learned at the third tier, and it's one of the core spells that magic users use from the early game to the late game!
Upon hearing this, both melee and magic users watched nervously as Rosie was being presented on the platform.
Although they didn't quite believe it, their senior's magic level seemed quite high...maybe?
After the commotion subsided, everyone's eyes inexplicably focused on her. Seeing that she couldn't avoid it, Luo Xi gritted her teeth and simply started arranging her food:
"Mentor, Explosive Flame Spell."
"My God, is the Explosive Flame Technique really going to be deflected?!" The scene erupted in chaos.
Jun's eyes lit up: "Are you sure?"
If a shield crafted from two non-European-level materials can truly deflect a blast of fire, then it would be perfectly reasonable for Loxi to become a mentor, and no one would object to it.
As for whether the Explosive Flame Spell will harm Loshi...
That's impossible. That's nothing. Her explosion is far more powerful than several sixth-tier blazing flames!
"Come quickly!" Loxi said, holding her shield in both hands.
A huge fireball flew in, hit the shield, and bounced away instantly.
Boom! The target was blown to bits.
Luo Xi suddenly covered her forehead, her body swaying, looking completely drained.
