At 10:58 a.m., the water magic class was packed with seats in the classroom.
The course schedule of the Incredible Magic Academy has been changed several times. At first, Jiang Qi set the interval between each class at 10 minutes according to the habit he had developed over many years of school. The first class started at 9 a.m., and the class time
They are 9:00~10:00, 10:10~11:10, 11:20~12:20.
There is lunch and break time at noon, and classes start at 2 p.m. and last until 5:20.
According to this schedule, students can attend 6 classes a day if they go to the maximum limit, and each class is an hour long on average.
of course there are exceptions.
For example, the crystal ball divination class takes one and a half hours, Kua Kua's goblin home economics class also takes one and a half hours, Liao Min's elf gardening class has one hour of theoretical class in the morning and one and a half hours of practical class in the afternoon.
When the teacher and students first rehearsed, they followed Jiang Qi's 10-minute break schedule.
Then on the second day, this anti-humanity class schedule was unilaterally canceled by Jiang Qi.
It’s not that the students are under too much study pressure and can’t stand the non-stop classes every day. The amusement park does not require each student to take a full number of classes a day. Students, like ordinary tourists, can choose the classes they like.
In the second half of the rehearsal, after Old John joined the classroom deluxe package, the History of Magic class was packed with seats. This has happened to a dwarf architecture student without him. The main theme is a truth.
The reason for the cancellation is: If a student wants to attend two classes in a row, it will be difficult to walk to the classroom smoothly in 10 minutes.
In magic schools, there are too many temptations that can cause students to unconsciously slow down or even stop.
You are walking around and find an animal head hanging in the corridor talking/singing/swearing. You have to stop and listen, right?
The armor is chatting with other armors through the fitting mirror with video calling function hanging in the corner. You have to take a look, right?
The carpet feels scratchy all over, and it picks up a corner and rolls around against the wall. When you pass by, the carpet asks you for help, asking you to help scratch the fur on its body. You have to help, right?
There are moving pictures on the walls, various small alchemical animals that randomly fly/run in the castle, and various wall clocks and pendulum clocks that must be played every hour on the hour. They are often disguised as of poor quality and fall all over the floor, waiting for you to pass by.
The good Samaritans reassembled themselves back into the wall frame and a host of other little things not to mention.
Walking in a school like this, can you walk to the next classroom in 10 minutes?
Impossible, absolutely impossible.
After some thought and decision which was not difficult, Jiang Qi adjusted the recess time from 10 minutes to one hour with a stroke of his pen.
The school's course schedule has changed to 9:00~10:00, 11:00~12:00 in the morning, 2:00~3:00, 4:00~5:00 in the afternoon. A one-hour break is provided for tourists.
Plenty of time to explore the castle and browse the souvenir shops.
A few courses, such as History of Magic and Crystal Ball Divination, which cannot be guaranteed to have one lesson per day, will be held at non-normal school hours.
For example, History of Magic at 3pm today.
Of course, History of Magic is in the afternoon, and most of the visitors in the school are currently focused on Principal Peggy’s water magic class.
The three words water, magic, and principal are combined together, and everyone will think that the water magic class must be the trump card course of the Magic Academy, and a must-visit for tourists.
At 10:59, Principal Peggy walked into the large classroom with brisk steps.
"Wow." Principal Page looked at the obviously crowded classroom and let out a heartfelt sigh. "I remember that the classroom configuration in our school was two people per desk. Why did it become shared by three people today?"
Scattered laughter came from the audience.
Principal Peggy showed a kind enough smile, stretched out her wand and lightly tapped the classroom door. The door slammed shut, and a circle of light blue water ripples overflowed from the crack of the door, just like the special effects of a fairy tale drama.
The tourists let out an unfamiliar "Oh-" sound.
"I didn't expect that so many visiting students would be willing to experience my water magic class today. It seems that everyone is looking forward to my class very much." Principal Peggy said with a smile, "In that case, let me show you some simple and easy lessons.
Get started with water magic."
"Everyone, please take out your own wands and wands. Visitors who don't have wands or wands can borrow the novice wands on the desk in front of you."
According to Principal Peggy's instructions, the visiting students successfully found a small wooden wand placed in the middle of the desk, which was the same as chopsticks, but a little more rounded than chopsticks.
After seeing all kinds of gorgeous, exquisite and high-end wands, the visiting students were suddenly asked to use small wooden sticks. They thought that the wands from the magic academy were quite plain and simple, so they just went outside to pick up a tree branch.
It can also be used as a magic wand if you grind it.
"For magicians, especially human magicians who are not limited to certain types of magic. The wand and the staff are just a medium for casting. You can use a magic wand, a staff, or even a crystal ball.
Magic books, all kinds of alchemy items. As long as you like it and suit you, anything is fine, even an alchemy brick."
As he spoke, Principal Peggy took out various things from his robe like magic, including various styles of wands, various styles of staffs, crystal balls of different colors, alarm clocks, magic books, quills, glasses, and stones.
And a piece of red brick.
Visiting student:……
They didn't understand, but they were shocked.
Compared with alarm clocks, crystal balls, quills, glasses, stones, and bricks, small wooden sticks do not seem so unacceptable.
Principal Peggy picked up the wand: "In our definition of magic, magic elements are divided into 5 systems, metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Beyond these five categories, there are more detailed divisions, such as space magic, time magic, and divination.
The categories are also divided into curses and prophecies. Since I am teaching a water magic class today, I will not explain these detailed categories with you one by one."
"For most magicians, there is only one essence of magic."
Principal Peggy waved her magic wand, and a ball of water that kept gathering and scattering floated out of the small pool in the southwest corner of the classroom. The water ball seemed to be floating in the air.
"explode."
With a bang, the water polo exploded in the air, and the scattered water droplets splashed onto the faces of the students who were closer to the water polo. The water droplets were ice-cold, which shocked the visiting students who were originally thankful that they were sitting close to the pool and could watch the magic show up close.
They were all stunned.
Everyone:???
Principal Peggy smiled a little apologetically: "Actually, compared to fire magic, which has more active elements, is easier to explode, and has greater explosion power, water magic is already relatively gentle."
"The water ball bomb just now is a common mistake made by most magicians who learn water magic in the early stages of learning because they cannot perfectly control the water element."
"Because novice magicians have low magic power, the number of water balls they can control is very limited, so the power of water ball bombs is also very limited. Over time, water ball bombs have turned from a common magic mistake into a fun little game of water magic."
Everyone:???
You call this a fun little game?
"Now, let's open the textbook. Look for the visiting student's textbook on the desk. Let's turn to page 1 to see the control and use of water."
"Water is the source of all things and one of the most common magic elements. Generally speaking, areas with strong water elements usually..."
Principal Peggy began her serious teaching.
Students in the audience: Abba Abba...
sleepy.
No, this is not the magic class we want.
What about the magic that was promised? How did it become a theory?
Twenty minutes later——
"Let's turn the book to page 8 and see the common uses of water magic."
"In addition to the extensive use of water magic in planting, a small number of practical household magic also includes water magic. Of course, these are practical magic with relatively low difficulty."
"In battle, water magic usually needs to be mixed with other magic elements to create an explosion with greater effect. In alchemy, water magic is rarely used."
"Now turn to page 9. The text in the textbook is relatively brief. In order to give everyone a clearer understanding, I will show you some of the more common decorative water magic."
Without giving the students in the audience who had begun to doze off time to react, Principal Peggy raised her wand and uttered a few obscure spells. A water dragon jumped up from the pool, and the roar of the dragon spread throughout the audience.
The whole classroom.
A long dragon with a length of more than 8 meters rolled in the air with extraordinary momentum. Then, a pure water phoenix with a light feather tail and a length of more than three meters flew out of the pool and spread its wings around the water dragon.
A dragon and a phoenix were fighting in the sky above the classroom for more than a minute. Both the visitors and the students looked up with their mouths wide open. If it weren't for the dragon and phoenix fighting above the classroom, one or two drops of water would splash from time to time.
On the face, no one can believe that this is what they can see with their own eyes.
What level of special effects is this?
Even in movies, special effects of this level are worthy of a major production.
A minute later, the dragon and phoenix returned to the pool, splashing a lot of water. Everyone stared blankly at the small pool until it became calm and could no longer withstand any waves. There was no trace of the fantastic dragon and the dragon just now.
Feng jumped out of the small pool and came back to his senses.
"Oh my God." The rat orc, who had been taking water magic classes for more than ten days, was dumbfounded and muttered, "It turns out that all the classes I took before were fake."
"It turns out that I am too small. I have always felt that Principal Peggy's water magic class is not as exciting as Teacher Lillian's fire magic class. It turns out that it is just because we don't have the funds and we don't have special effects."
"It turns out that this is the principal's position!"
These are the remarks of the students.
"so cool!"
"Mom, I saw magic!"
"Principal, I want to learn this, I want to learn this!"
"Principal, can you do it again? I didn't see it clearly just now!"
"Didn't you see clearly? Brother, your short-sightedness is a bit serious. You can't even see such a big dragon and phoenix... Oh, yes, yes, yes, principal, I didn't see clearly either. Can you do it again?"
"Come once, come once!"
The visiting students were almost crazy.
If they could play subtitles on their heads, the subtitles would be: Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, coupled with an emoticon of a marmot screaming.
Of course, there are also many practical people among the visiting students. Many of them waved the small wooden sticks in their hands and imitated Principal Peggy’s action just now and lit a little bit of the pool.
Nothing happens.
Not to mention dragons and phoenixes, not even a drop of water flew.
"What you just saw is relatively difficult water magic." Principal Peggy interrupted everyone's screams and shouts, "This type of magic not only tests the magician's control and accuracy of the water element
In addition, it also tests the magician’s imagination.”
"Theoretically, as long as your imagination is rich enough and your control of details is strong enough, you can use water to create any shape you want."
Principal Peggy waved her magic wand, and a simple and honest panda appeared above the pool.
"If you think the color of the water is too monotonous, you can add some other colors to it."
The panda started to look black and white.
"Of course, if you don't like regular animals, you can also create some creatures of your own."
The water mass dispersed in the air and fell back into the pool below, stirring up a water curtain barrier. The next second, the barrier fell, and a little rabbit with a fox-like furry tail appeared above the pool.
"Of course, this is just an ideal situation. Most of the time, the things created by magicians are always ugly and strange."
The little rabbit turned into a monster.
It has bear ears, a square face, a pig belly, six legs, two tails, and a bunch of hedgehog-like spikes on its body, which makes it an insult to the eyes even if you take a second look at it.
"Under such circumstances, magicians may be beaten by their colleagues if they want to paint."
Colorful monsters.
The visiting student who was nearby had already covered his eyes in pain.
"The above is the entire content of today's course." Looking at the masks of pain on the faces of the students in the audience, Principal Peggy nodded with satisfaction.
"What our Incredible Magic Academy attaches most importance to is the combination of theory and practice. Now, let's work in groups of two. Oops, there are a lot of students today, so let's work in groups of three."
"Have you seen the row of small pools on the west side of the classroom? There is one pool in each group. The magic elements in each pool are equal. Don't think that the one I just demonstrated is the one in the southwest corner.
That pool is very useful. I only chose this pool because it is closest to me."
"There is no need to recite the incantation. Do you still remember what is written on page 2 of the textbook? Feel the rich water element in the pool with your heart, wave your magic wand, concentrate your energy, and focus on the pool in front of you."
"When the water element feels your call, it will respond to you. Today's task for all students is to gather a water ball and maintain it for 10 seconds without exploding."
Principal Peggy said so, and the visiting students formed groups of three and three, with each group having a pool.
Ms. T stood in front of the pool with a magic wand in her hand, feeling a little silly.
How should I put it? The special effects of the mechanism just now are indeed wonderful, but they are just like actors in TV dramas.
Some things need special effects to make them exciting. Without special effects, they look like a fool.
Ms. T feels like she is the fool.
Ms. T hesitated.
Just when Ms. T was hesitating, the little girl next to her with a single ponytail and a youthful face had already begun to stare at the pool with plausibility, holding the wand in her hand, trembling slightly.
If you listen carefully, you can still hear the little girl saying: "Give me a water balloon, give me a water balloon."
Ms. T:……
Ms. T could only sigh in her heart, it is better to be a student. The little girl next to her could tell at a glance that she was a college student. She was obedient and sensible. She had not experienced severe beatings from society. Her eyes were shining with clear stupidity. She would believe whatever she said.
Let her practice magic and she really does it.
The next second, a small water ball the size of a thumb floated tremblingly from the pool.
Ms. T:?
Little girl:!
"Principal, I am..."
Before the word "gong" could be said, the water ball exploded, hitting the little girl's face and splashing half of Ms. T's face.
"Very good, stay focused and keep going." Principal Peggy nodded approvingly.
other people:!
Family, it’s true!
You can actually practice magic at the Magic Academy!
The first lucky person to eat the crab appeared. No matter whether they were embarrassed or not, they were all staring at the pool attentively, talking about everything.
"Come on a ball, come on a ball."
"Here comes a big ball, come here with a big ball."
"Someone with color, please."
"Choose a colorful and cool one, preferably with glitter!"
pool:……
In order to provide tourists with a class experience, these pools, without exception, are all magic props handmade by Principal Peggy.
Just like the crystal ball used in the crystal ball divination class, it has a 100% success rate and is effective through personal testing.
Let everyone experience the joy of being the protagonist of the world and the little magic genius.
"boom!"
"Haha, I kept the ball for three seconds!"
"Snapped!"
"Haha, my ball is bigger than before!"
"Snapped!"
"Wow, it's so exciting!"
"Snapped!"
"boom!"
"..."
For a moment, the whole classroom was filled with the sound of water balloons exploding.
Magic is an explosion!
At the end of the class, a group of tourists were so immersed in playing that they gathered water balloons almost non-stop, exploded, gathered again, and exploded again. One by one, they looked like they had just fallen into the water. They were wet from head to toe, their hair was still dripping, and they were all wet.
Walking out of the water magic class classroom.
Idle time was also idle. Other tourists sweeping the floor at the entrance of the classroom were shocked to see this group of people who seemed to have just finished swimming lessons and had not had time to change clothes.
"What are you..." The enthusiastic tourists sweeping the floor looked at this group of people blankly with a broom, "What class are you taking?"
"Water magic class!" Ms. T, who was walking at the front, said with gleaming eyes and her long wet hair, "It's super fun, trust me!"
Enthusiastic tourists:……
Principal Peggy reminded loudly from behind: "Students whose clothes and hair are wet can go to the souvenir shop to borrow a hair dryer to dry their hair. There are free clean towels you can borrow in the shop. Of course, there are also wizard robes and changes of clothes for sale, so you can try on them."
There are also rooms. Hot soup is available in the noon auditorium and the goblin cafeteria on the third floor. Please be careful not to catch a cold."
"We understand, thank you Principal Peggy for your concern!"
"Thank you principal, let's go buy clothes now!"
"I also want to buy a wand, that's so cool. Do any of you remember what the principal just said the wand can trigger?"
"It seems to be the wall clock in the auditorium..."
“There is also one at the corner of the botanical garden on the second floor.”
"There are many hidden mechanisms!"
"Go quickly, go quickly, you won't be able to buy it if you go late!"
Tourists happily rush to the souvenir shop.
Enthusiastic tourists:……
What a strange group of people, the enthusiastic tourists thought. Some people actually come to play with water in the magic school and play with themselves like this.
Principal Peggy walked out of the classroom and found someone sweeping the floor in the corridor. She took one more look at the enthusiastic tourist, smiled at him, and turned around to leave.
What a strange tourist, Principal Peggy thought. Even Assistant Teacher Wang came out to cheat, but there are still people who insist on cleaning.
well.
The enthusiastic tourist sighed inwardly.
It is said that hard work pays off, and opportunities always come to those who are prepared. The first lucky person was caught by school director Lilian and went to the kitchen to wash dishes, and the second lucky person was met by Assistant Teacher Wang for 50 yuan.
A one-on-one calculation of the Book of Changes. Now that everyone is no longer disgraced, only I am still persisting. When will I become the third lucky person?
well.
Principal Peggy sighed inwardly.
Going to class now is not fun at all. I can only teach a little bit of theoretical knowledge, and it is impossible to lead students to actually learn magic. Why am I not the boss? If I were the boss, I wouldn’t have to go to class every day. I would just hire a teaching assistant to help me in class in the afternoon.
There is also a space magic class, and I really don’t want to go to work.
So annoying.
Enthusiastic tourists think.
So annoying.
Principal Peggy thought.
The two looked at each other and read each other's thoughts for no apparent reason.
"This classmate." Principal Peggy felt that the visiting student sweeping the floor for free in front of her was really pleasing to the eye. She could invite this classmate to have tea and see the world. "Are you interested in coming to my office?"
Enthusiastic tourists:!
Finally, have you finally become the third lucky person?!
Sure enough, hard work pays off, and opportunities always come to those who are prepared. Famous quotes do not deceive me!
Chapter completed!
