Chapter 18 Found out?(1/3)
In Yongxing City, the craze caused by the return of the prince has been reduced (or it is just a backlog, waiting for the next outbreak). At least the Mindis Hall, which is closed to all guests, is no longer as crowded as before. Thales rarely enjoys a short period of time.
Some pure time.
But that doesn't mean he's happy now.
Starting from the next day, His Highness Thales had not had time to fully enjoy the power brought by the great status of "Master of Mindis Hall". The royal teaching group headed by Gilbert ("Character of the Royal Family"
"Packaging Company" - the Duke's angry words) drove into the Mindis Hall in an orderly manner.
First of all, the instructor of the grammar class, including the ancient imperial script and the common elven script, was the renowned Bachelor of Arts of Bona from the Wang Li School of Liberal Arts.
Being able to hire him is a must-have at a good price and good quality.
On the one hand, Bachelor Bona's bald head is so smooth that it can reflect light, allowing Mindis Hall to save a lot of lamp oil and save resources.
On the other hand, his soft, deep and intermittent voice ("I'm going to die of illness" - a mean d.d who can't speak loudly from now on) forced the entire Mindis Hall to remain absolutely quiet during class hours, benefiting the environment;
Third, his profound knowledge and wide range of fields almost compressed the prince's five courses (grammar, logic, rhetoric, ancient imperial literature and elven literature) into one, allowing Thales to understand the answers to the following questions:
How much change will these languages bring to their grammar? How will they affect the principles and expressions of logic (such as the troublesome Ancient Empire script and the damned Universal Elven script) whose word order is completely different from that of Common Language?
?What kind of rhetorical challenges did they bring? How did they affect the current language and way of speaking respectively? And then changed people's thinking habits? Finally, how did they ruthlessly eat away at Prince Thales' precious sleep?
time?
("Your Highness, you said you can't finish the recitation? Then, then go to bed later... Anyway, you young people who say you go to bed early are all lies. You lie in bed and do everything but don't sleep...
What, it’s bad for your head and hair? Oh, that’s not important... Your Highness, do you know about wigs? Who in the palace doesn’t wear wigs and fake breasts... What, will you grow taller if you sleep late? Hey, Your Highness, you wear the crown,
Isn't it high enough..." - The trembling Bachelor Bona, who said one sentence that made the prince change his color three times)
The history class was taught by Gilbert himself. Compared to Bachelor Bona's extensive references and far-sightedness, the Foreign Secretary's goal was simple and clear: to turn Prince Thales into a human form in "Ancient Empires to the Stars" in two months.
Kingdom: Encyclopedia of General History for Two Thousand Years.
("'Index'! Your Highness, I must correct your joke. It's just an 'index' of the Encyclopedia. Use it to bluff...ahem, it's enough to show your erudition." - Serious Gilbert
)
As for mathematics courses, this may be one of the few courses that can bring comfort to His Excellency the Duke of Star Lake. Bachelor Julio is quite surprised by Thales's geometry and algebra level, especially the prince's performance in "Exter, the Bird that Cannot Lay Eggs"
Under the premise that six years were wasted in vain.
But what troubles Thales is that as Julio's confidence in him grows higher and higher, he has to teach an unprecedented "mathematician prince" ("After you are crowned, you must remember to allocate funds to us - see
, Hey, hey, these naughty little formulas, how beautiful and cute they are, do they look like they are smiling at you?” - Bachelor Julio, who kept waving his orchid fingers) The excited former is expanding enthusiastically and rapidly.
Their course syllabus.
For example, one day, Bachelor Julio finally combined algebra and geometry, and began to plan to let Thales use algebraic equations to measure the trajectories and changes of celestial bodies.
("These basic equations don't match up, right? The movements of the stars are too weird... And you know, is it possible for us to grasp these immeasurable movements? Several scholars from Dragon Kiss College imagine that as long as
Divide this movement process into different parts, and then you can get the answer by dividing it all the time. Let me show you the calculation formulas they proposed... Hey, Your Highness? What's wrong with you, Your Highness? Wake up, wake up.
Your Highness! You should finish the questions first before you faint!" - Young and promising Bachelor Julio)
The course materials they used have expanded from mathematical problems in ancient books to real-life figures on national conditions and people's livelihood. On several occasions, Julio even suggested that he might try to estimate future income from previous national income, or to estimate future income from the central government's population growth.
Estimated data from all the stars. Thales had reason to suspect that if he didn't act stupid and slow down the course, it would be really close to the appearance of a terrible bell curve and a series of concepts in the book.
It's just a matter of time.
As for the science class, thank God, the well-informed Lord Monton is often humorous and fascinating when he talks about astronomy, geography, humanities and customs - if the prince does not interrupt him from time to time and embarrass him.
("Why is the Supreme Star in the East? What is the composition of Li Jingite? If all the whales are killed one day, will we have no eternal oil to use? Are werewolves and vampires really cursed monsters, and
Are wolves and bats related? Dragon Kiss is a basin, so isn’t its climate a little strange? Are the fog and whirlpools on the Misty Sea really formed naturally? There are so many witnesses to the legend of the sea monster in the Devil Sea.
No one has ever doubted it? Why can Sunset Haoyue’s faith and their Temple Church coexist? Piranha plants are like giant dragons, how can they cope with their energy consumption? Under the eyes of the Ending Sea is really the capital of triumph and the homeland of the empire.
?How do the Vampires of the Feast Territory rule? There must be different topography and climate inside the great desert, right? Is the desert city Caligre real? Why did the great force that created the Great Rift not form a vortex and suck in the two continents?
?Where did the plague in the Three Kingdoms of the Lost Sea begin to erupt? Why is the interval between the two eruptions of the Sangla volcano so short? The speeds from different ports to the Eastern Continent are different. Is it because of the direction of the ocean current?" - His Highness the Prince's
"One Hundred Thousand Whys".)
As for the art class, after seeing and listening to the paintings and lute performances carefully prepared by the Duke of Star Lake, the prestigious Master Uhlan gently told Thales: To study art, you don’t necessarily need to be an art creator.
, you can also be an art appreciator. I think, Duke, you are very suitable to be an appreciator who will go down in history, especially...
In short, this week of unrespiteful prince training courses made Thales miss his former life in the Palace of the Spirits even more - except for the dead face.
Why, why didn't we bring the little slicker to class together in the first place?
Thales, who felt like his body was being hollowed out every day, thought with tears silently.
It would be better to let him go back to the desert.
At least the orcs won't force him to memorize the seven word patterns, three parts of speech, four tenses, three modes of voice, four persons, five word orders, and eighteen interchangeable cases according to the situation in the ancient imperial script.
Different sentence patterns, including complex pronunciation rules - in comparison, the modern imperial language of General Lao Shizi in the Black Path is really simple.
Or the twenty-two inflections of Common Elvish - my God, that's a vocal lesson.
In the Mindis Hall, Thales felt so much pressure that he even forgot about the debut banquet two months later, let alone the whirlpool of power in the Fuxing Palace.
Even some "special" courses that are supposed to be a little more relaxed are the same.
Such as now.
"Do you feel it, Your Highness Thales?"
"As your weapon, it is so strong, straight, hard, yet still tough and elastic..."
A gentle and easy-going voice sounded from his left ear, and then slowly circled to his right ear, causing itchiness.
"But it is also so impulsive. The wild desire is endless and cannot be restrained. It is eager to release itself, go wild, and conquer... But you cannot obey easily. You must control it and don't let this wild horse get out of the gate easily...
…”
Thales's cheeks were red, his breathing was rapid, and he had no time to pay attention to the voice in his ears.
"Strong your waist, hold your hands steady, yes, that's it, keep this posture and direction, try to be as straight as possible, don't tremble..."
Sweat flowed down Thales's cheeks, and he suddenly trembled.
Oops!
The voice became stern:
"I know it's hard, but you have to persist! Tighten! Straighten! Raise! Don't let it fall..."
But Thales could feel that he had...
No.
An uncontrollable numbness spread throughout the body.
Too bad, too bad.
He, he can't hold on anymore...
Thales felt dizzy.
He is almost...
Almost...
ah!
Finally, with a dull sound, the practice sword in Thales's hand fell to the sand along with the road wheel hanging on the sword.
Duke Xinghu breathed rapidly, his arms were numb and his gloves were full of sweat.
Footsteps sounded, and Marius came from behind him, staring thoughtfully at the sword on the ground.
"The time...is a little short?"
Thales shook his sore arm in annoyance and stamped his feet in the temporary training ground in the courtyard to relieve his numbness.
"It's okay," the prince said bitterly:
"I'm just not used to it."
"Northlanders don't teach that way. They tend to...confrontation training."
Mallos snorted:
"Then maybe...you should go back to the Northland?"
Taylor suddenly choked.
The setting sun shone on the courtyard of Mindis Hall, elongating the figures of Marius and Thales on the ground.
Behind them, Doyle stood under the pillars, talking to Glover beside him.
"Obviously, our Prince has not experienced systematic training."
Doyle shook his head:
"It seems that the Northlanders who are good at fighting have limited abilities."
Glover pursed his lips.
To be continued...
