Don't disturb the sorcerer's scientific research

Ram demonstrated again, but this time he could only throw half the distance of last time, and his accuracy was greatly reduced.

"why?"

The examiner couldn't understand.

"You add more."

Ram cast a spell, and the catapult became useful again.

The examiner covered his head, unable to believe what he saw.

"What's the principle?"

"Ram said it was blessed by divine guidance, so it's happy, and when it's happy, it works better."

"are you serious?"

"Of course Ram is serious."

"No, no, there's definitely something wrong."

He couldn't accept such a weird reason that the machine was happy and therefore more useful.

"No problem. Ram made the trebuchet for demonstration purposes, but it can be used elsewhere."

As he spoke, he cast a spell on the bellows, and the fire in the furnace burned brighter, and he cast a spell on the grinding wheel, and the wheel turned faster.

Jia Xiu at the next laboratory table also noticed this.

He and the examiner were almost as shocked.

Did this allow Ram to realize the "Great Joy of the Machine Soul"?

Chapter 95 Ram's Spell Traps Three Sages

Faced with the spell given by Ram, the examiner thought it was beyond his ability.

Yes, it works, but I don’t understand how it is passed or rejected.

But it doesn’t matter, he can still ask for help from an expert.

The registered spellcaster assessment is an important exam and there is an arbitration group.

The arbitration panel is composed of top-level spellcasters who possess both ability and reputation, and are strong, steady and experienced.

When a situation that is difficult to judge arises among the candidates, it can be handled by the arbitration group.

However, he had been an examiner for so many exams, and he had never needed to alert the arbitration panel.

As an examiner, I couldn't understand the candidate's magic.

To be honest, it's a bit embarrassing.

No, struggle a little longer.

The examiner once again looked at the spell Ram had submitted.

He tried his best to understand Ram's work with the same seriousness he had shown in his own exams.

In the chaotic and complex runes, he seemed to be about to find the starting point of logic, just one step away, just one step away...

Failed.

Do not understand.

After struggling to no avail, the examiner decided to call someone else.

Soon, several more phantom men arrived at the examination room. They looked much older than the examiners, with white hair and long beards.

The image gives a very reliable feeling.

"It's this spell, the effect is..."

The examiner truthfully told all the information he had.

"That's it anyway. I'm not too sure about the principles of this spell."

"Look at you," a mage from the arbitration panel came over, "you've been an examiner for many years, and you can't understand a modified divine guidance spell. How embarrassing! Let me see, isn't this... eh?"

Another mage in the group looked at him for a few seconds without saying anything.

"No way, are you senile or something? How dare you say that to me? It's not okay for you to spend so much time looking at such a small thing."

The second mage said as he came over. "Looks pretty simple, doesn't it? It's this rune... No, this rune?"

The last mage in the arbitration panel saw his two colleagues fall silent as they stared at the candidates' works. "That's not possible, is this a prank? Are you playing a prank on me? Let me see...hiss!"

The three experienced and accomplished old wizards from the arbitration panel surrounded Ram's wonderful creation, some scratching their heads and some pulling their beards.

"Is this reasonable?"

“It seems reasonable.”

"But I always feel like something is wrong."

“How on earth did this achieve that effect?”

"I think I understand a little bit..."

……

While several mages from the arbitration group were discussing.

An examiner, a humble and self-defeating examiner, stood up quietly.

I originally thought that I was too bad.

After all this fuss, you're not any better off.

I guess I'm okay then...

……

This rare scene could hardly fail to attract the attention of other candidates.

Jia Xiu came to Ram. He had roughly completed the spell framework and had plenty of time, so he came to join in the fun.

He was also very curious about how Ram achieved that effect.

"Ram, how did your spell work? Did it really make the machine happy?"

It has been three years since Jia Xiu came here, and he has never heard of such a thing as a machine soul here.

"Ram thinks so. Ram likes to make friends with machines."

"Um, the machine is alive?"

"Not sure, but Ram can treat them as alive."

"So how do you do your magic?"

"Part of it is what I learned in school, and part of it is that I think it's the right thing to do."

Jia Xiu narrowed his eyes.

Appeared!

He is another one who relies on intuition. Why does it feel like compared to Ram and Mia, he is the one with the least cheating!

He also had to study the runes and write code seriously.

"I understand!"

At this moment, a mage from the arbitration group spoke.

"The reason why this spell looks so strange is that a large part of its logic isn't that of a normal spell. It's closer to... the logic of ogre magic!"

"You know all the ogre magic?"

"Yes, I did some research when I was bored. Ogres occasionally give birth to magical individuals who can use spells. They don't need to learn, they are born with the ability to cast spells. There is an ancient book that records some ogre spells. Their logic is strange, but it is understandable. The association should have that book..."

It must be admitted that these old wizards are still powerful. They can see through the magic circuits and find out that Ram has some connection with the ogre.

Soon, the ancient book containing ogre magic was delivered.

"Let me see. Yes, that's right. Ogres' understanding of runes is different from humans'. According to the rune correspondence table left by this senior, this spell should be..."

Several old men carefully checked the correspondence table, trying to crack the spell left by Ram.

While Jia Xiu may have been unintentional, the ogres' perception of runes is different. What about other races? Could it be that the perception of runes among races is like the perception of color by color blindness, with certain colors, or runes, always being confused, or simply invisible, and yet remaining undiscovered?

More than ten minutes later, the arbitration team completed the cracking of Ram's spell.

"So far, it seems this spell is similar to a combination of Guidance and Animation Objects, but Animation Objects is a simplified version. It doesn't animate the entire object, but only activates a portion of it and blesses the activated part."

The examiner now understood. "What a brilliant idea! If you activate the entire thing, you can only bless it once, and the benefits are very limited. However, if you activate and bless multiple parts, the cumulative effect will be considerable."

Hearing the discussion here, Jia Xiu was also a little surprised.

I originally thought that Ram was doing metaphysics here, and that the Mechanicus was born, but it turned out that he was actually doing science, and the spell effects were quite reasonable.

If there is no machine soul, create a "machine soul".

The examiner then asked, "So, this candidate should be considered to have passed?"

"Of course, with such excellent results and creative ideas, there is no reason not to approve it."

"no disagreement."

The arbitration panel quickly reached a consensus.

"But I still have something to ask," an old wizard said, "Student Ram, how did you manage to precisely control the activated components to be the key components?"

Ram scratched his nose innocently, "Ram has no control, he just casts the spell casually."

"Good boy, quite modest."

"But Ram really has no control."

"That's enough. I know you have precise control over your spells. To be more modest would be showing off."

Ram didn't understand why no one believed him when he told the truth.

"Alright, alright, we've delayed you for so long, and the others are still taking the exam. If there's nothing else, let's just leave. We can't have two students with problems in the same exam room, right? Haha."

The arbitration team said this and prepared to leave.
