Chapter 21: Thunderclap

~7 min read 1,205 words

A series of "Excellent" and "Extremely Excellent" results jumped out like a string of firecrackers, and the old wizard's chin was about to drop to the table.

His original contemptuous smile completely froze, replaced by a face full of horror and uncontrollable trembling.

Anti-spiritual erosion and anti-mind control reached the fourth-ring level?!

This was already close to the core resistance of some high-tier protective constructs!

And the last few items, corrosion and anti-curse, actually reported "Assessment exceeds the current instrument range" directly, and gave a "Suggest upgrading detection" prompt?!

This instrument was standard equipment capable of detecting the resistance of materials below the fifth-ring wizard level!

This, this, this... how could this be possible?!

The old wizard's abnormality attracted the attention of other detection wizards around him.

They crowded over to look, and when they saw the two eye-piercing "Inferior" results at the beginning of the detection result list, followed by a string of dazzling "Excellent," "Extremely Excellent," and even "Assessment exceeds range" words, the entire detection center instantly boiled over!

"What the hell? What kind of material is this?!"

"Why is the physical and energy resistance in the front so poor? Why is the erosion resistance in the back so high? It's completely uncoordinated!"

"Exceeds instrument range? This must be a material that at least a fifth-ring wizard could research, right? Who submitted it?!"

"Where is the submitter's name?! Is it some high-tier wizard? Why didn't they take the special channel?"

They looked at the simple label on the material sample bottle one after another, which only wrote—"White iron-based isolation material," and an apprentice number!

"Apprentice?!" Everyone was stunned.

A wizard apprentice?! Are you kidding me?!

A detection wizard with only the level of a first-ring official wizard picked up the recording board with trembling hands, his voice changed pitch: "Quick! Quick, go invite the supervisor!!!"

The entire detection center was in chaos. All the wizards crowded around, looking at those inconspicuous white iron blocks, their eyes filled with shock, doubt, and disbelief.

Some clever wizards even started secretly contacting their companions after seeing the test results, asking them to be ready at all times to buy this isolation material with this number on the Magic Net.

With curse and corrosion resistance exceeding the fifth ring, this level of material was absolutely a controlled material even in the Nuolun Workshop.

Isolation material?

It was simply a waste of heaven's gifts!

Isn't it better to use this level of material to make protective wizarding tools?!

As for the weak physical resistance and energy resistance... this point was never a problem!

After all, what wizards were best at was protection in these two aspects, and they had plenty of relevant protective means.

In the endless plane wars, the biggest trouble wizards encountered was the erosion and damage caused by various incomprehensible unknown forces.

The reason why logistics wizards had to follow to the front line was to analyze various special energies or substances in the plane at any time and quickly research countermeasures.

Similarly, the biggest loss of logistics wizards was also the damage caused during the process of researching these things.

And with this thing, unless you were unlucky to the extreme, it was like having an extra life!

More and more wizards thought of this point, and the information secretly contacted to the outside became more and more frequent.

Therefore, when the supervisor arrived here, almost all the official wizards in the entire academy were excited.

That night, an anonymous apprentice, a piece of inconspicuous material, dropped a silent thunderclap in the depths of the Nuolun Academy Alchemy Workshop.

And at this moment, as the focus of everyone's discussion, Jie Ming was still "moving bricks" in a corner of the warehouse, working hard for those few life-saving credits.

He had no idea what kind of shock his unintentional act had already triggered within the academy.

No. 5 Material Warehouse, the air was filled with the mixed odor of dust and various ores.

This warehouse was like a huge cave, piled with various raw materials.

The dust of ores and the dry smell of plants floated in the air. Sunlight shone in through several rune glass holes on the top, forming beams of light, and countless tiny dust particles danced in the beams of light.

Jie Ming was wearing a protective suit, and he and several other apprentices were assigned here, with mountains of ores and plants piled in front of them.

They needed to identify these materials one by one according to the "Basic Material Manual," sort them into different boxes, then weigh them, and stick labels on them.

"Sigh, another physical labor." An apprentice of the same period sighed and bent down to start moving the ores.

"If it were just pure physical labor, that would be fine. Why do we have to identify the ores? These things look exactly the same!" Another apprentice also sighed.

Jie Ming didn't speak. After putting on his protective suit, he joined in.

While carefully identifying the ores in his hands with his spiritual sense, he mechanically repeated the movements of sorting and weighing.

Suddenly, Jie Ming's movements paused because he saw Vido Lei En and his mission partner walk into the entrance of the warehouse.

They seemed to have just completed a mission and came here to look for the next one.

Vido Lei En saw the "sorting" mission Jie Ming and the others were doing at a glance, but he didn't come over, instead taking his partner towards the extension of the mission board in the warehouse.

After a while, Jie Ming heard Vido Lei En's voice coming from not far away.

He seemed to have found another mission that looked good and was persuading his partner.

"Look, this 'test energy conduction rate' mission requires going to the No. 3 Energy Room... although it's a bit remote, the mission itself is not difficult, just operating a few instruments, and the credits given are twice that of sorting!" Vido Lei En's tone was seductive, "Don't always do physical labor, you have to use your brain!"

His partner seemed a bit hesitant: "Energy Room... I heard that energy fluctuations are unstable there sometimes..."

"It's fine! There are protective measures! Besides, instability is just right for recording more data. Maybe you can write a small report for the mentor and leave a good impression?" Vido Lei En lightly dispelled his partner's concerns, his tone full of confidence that "following me will definitely be right."

Listening to his words, Jie Ming curled his lips on the side.

He could be sure that Vido Lei En definitely took benefits from some people in the Energy Room and was purely pitting a sucker here.

Of course, it wasn't quite a pit, after all, what he said was not wrong.

But Vido Lei En just didn't tell this unlucky guy that most of the energy fluctuations tested in the Energy Room were not very harmonious. It wouldn't be harmful to the human body, but after the test, dizziness, nausea, and vomiting for two or three days were unavoidable.

However, Jie Ming didn't intend to expose this guy, after all, there was no deep hatred between the two sides. ===== CHAPTER 22 =====
