Because we have to catch up, the fourth semester is coming soon. From this semester on, time will no longer follow the school's schedule, but will be arranged immediately according to the specific progress of the class.
This is something that every college student will experience. Class 4 of Mysterious Lock Design, where Xia Duo belongs, has experienced it relatively late.
The goal of the fourth semester is "Design Principles of Traditional Mystery Locks". If the basic equation Mystery Locks are the germination of modern Mystery Locks, then the traditional Mystery Locks are the nutrient pool of modern Mystery Locks.
Modern puzzle locks have grown and grown to this day by constantly absorbing the nutrients of traditional puzzle locks. Students majoring in puzzle lock design must learn traditional puzzle locks.
In fact, throughout the entire professional learning stage, the study of modern myths and traditional myths is interleaved. On the one hand, it helps students establish a complete concept of modern myths, and on the other hand, it constantly encourages students to draw nutrients from traditional myths.
Until now, there are still a large number of traditional mystery locks that have not been thoroughly analyzed.
…
In class that day, Xia Duo unexpectedly got a piece of news from Tutuo's instructor - before entering the projection plane, the Dragon Madness Lock Control Center that he had been thinking about had been discovered!
The specific location is still unclear, because that place is currently in the hands of the Everrisk Alliance, which is also the Everrisk Alliance's greatest confidence in facing the ever-growing and growing True Heart Alliance.
In fact, after Xia Duo projected himself again to familiarize himself with some basic conditions of the Scarlet Heart Alliance, he has always had a question. The Scarlet Heart Alliance is so powerful now, why can't it unify the main plane, or even the Northland?
Now this question has been answered, and the reason is that the Everesca Alliance has occupied the Dragon Madness Mystic Lock control center.
Although Tutuo did not go into details, he also mentioned that it was possible that when the Red Heart Tribe was searching for the Secret Scroll of Dragon Madness, the countries of the Evereska Alliance had the opportunity to take advantage of it. With the background of the upper-class elves, it is entirely possible.
Find it first before the Red Heart Tribe finds the Dragon Madness Secret Scroll.
In this regard, those who know the Dragon Madness Mystery Lock the most in the world today are probably the countries of the Efriska Alliance. It is precisely because of this that the Red Heart Alliance is restrained and does not dare to liberate it lightly.
Understand the Dragon Madness Mystery Lock and occupy the control center. Not to mention being able to completely control the Mystery Lock, at least you still have the ability to make the Mystery Lock disintegrate in advance. This is equivalent to a super killer weapon.
Even if the Red Heart Alliance is stronger than the Everesca Alliance, they still need to consider the consequences of the collapse of the earth.
But with the continuous development and growth of the Red Heart Alliance, there will eventually be two results. One is that the Dragon Madness Mystery Lock crisis can be properly resolved, and then the countries of the Everesca Alliance can be directly resolved. This is the best result.
The other is that under this huge pressure, the countries of the Evereska Alliance launched a war of destruction in advance while the big killer weapons they had were still functioning. This was actually a common death.
…
After hearing such news, Xia Duo couldn't help but feel a little regretful, but also a little lucky. What he regretted was that the current good situation of the Red Heart Alliance was very likely to be ruined because of the "regret" he projected before.
Fortunately, the main plane has not encountered such an extremely bad situation. As long as he finds the Dragon Mad Lock control center before the elves in the country, he can eliminate the crisis to the greatest extent.
So, where is the control center?
Sha Duo felt that the top management of the Red Heart Alliance might have known about it, but they did not disclose it because they were worried about causing too much psychological pressure on the Everesca Alliance. Otherwise, there would definitely be many passionate people trying to eliminate the danger.
This is equivalent to hot-blooded soldiers investigating other countries' nuclear bombs. However, these hot-blooded soldiers still have the possibility to eliminate the danger, but it is too easy for the gun to go off.
So Xia Duo has another reason to obtain the original high-level permissions. Only with high permissions can he query some information that is currently unobtainable, among which there is a high probability that the location of the Dragon Kuang Mystic Lock Control Center is located.
“There’s still a long way to go!”
…
Class four classroom.
Compared with the state at the beginning, it can be said that there have been earth-shaking changes here, and it is worthy of the name of a practice base.
The existence of the demiplane expands the classroom to a hundred times or a thousand times in size. The entrance is where daily activities and various experimental facilities are located, and the inside is full of mystery lock practice areas.
After each class, the students in Class 4 will be organized by Xia Duo to reproduce what Tutuo said in the practice area, and then discuss it, and then find and solve problems in practice, and finally complete the project.
progress requirements.
At the end of the day's discussion, Zuo Mu suddenly mentioned a rumor he had heard recently: "I heard that the college is planning to hold a Mystery Lock Attack and Defense Competition on a class-by-class basis. Do you want to participate?"
"When did it happen? How did I hear about it?" someone questioned.
"I know Dean Reese's assistant, and I just heard what he said. It's not just him, but others are also spreading the word. Maybe the higher-ups deliberately spread the news to warm up the competition in advance!" Zom explained.
"I've heard about it too. I heard it from a classmate from Class 2 when I was eating in the cafeteria. At that time, I saw them being mysterious and thought they were deliberately playing me. Now it seems that it's probably true."
"Maruente, what do you think?"
The question was asked to Xia Duo, but Xia Duo was a little hesitant, because participating in the competition will definitely delay the normal course progress. Once other classes do not participate, and they participate, even if they are rewarded with points, their progress will fall behind. This is not a class.
A few points can make up for it.
Lagging behind in the progress of professional courses will affect the application for independent projects, and this is the main point for obtaining research sequence points at the university level. However, if the competition is really encouraged by the college, not participating is also a troublesome matter.
After thinking about it, Xia Duo was still a little undecided, "It's hard to say now. At least we have to wait until the college confirms it. In addition, it depends on whether other classes will participate. If they all participate, we will have to follow.
Already."
This is just like giving gifts. They may not remember who sent them, but they will definitely be deeply impressed by those who did not. If they do not support the work of the college, it will probably be even more difficult to apply for independent project funding.
"The news should be true, and the assistant to the dean should not fabricate it out of thin air." Zuom emphasized his source of information again, and then said, "I don't know what the reward situation is now. If the reward is rich, all classes should
Come join us!”
"Has the academy organized similar competitions in the past?" Sha Duo asked.
As an actual freshman, he didn't know much about this, but other students had been at Chixin University for more than ten years, so they should know better than him.
In this regard, Zuo Mu immediately said: "Generally speaking, each college has its own large-scale competitions with its own characteristics, which happens every five to ten years. The last inter-hospital competition of Mysuo College should have been five years ago, when I was still in
General education class, I just heard that there is such a thing, I didn’t pay attention to the specific competition."
"I know!"
Another classmate Emil immediately spoke up, "I was planning to apply for the Mystery Lock Academy five years ago, so I paid more attention to it. The competition five years ago was to design an independent Mystery Lock. I remember that I came in first."
The reward is 20 research sequence points.”
"20 points?!" Several students exclaimed.
You must know that they can only get 5 points in one semester now, which still takes advantage of their status as college students. If they can get 1 point for completing a project after graduation, it will be very good.
Hearing that there was a 20-point reward for the competition five years ago, even Xia Duo couldn't help but feel a little jealous, but he soon calmed down. The first place was only 20 points, and the rest couldn't all be 20 points, right?
, where does this place the first place?
And with the current strength of Class 4, it is almost certain that they will not get the first place. In this case, it seems that there is really no need to participate in this competition. However, you can participate in the next competition. By then, the senior students will graduate and they will not be able to win the first place.
If you work hard, you may not be able to reach the first place.
Thinking of this, Xia Duo has probably made a decision. As long as not everyone in the same grade participates, he is not going to participate. It is really boring to run with him. It is not too late to wait for the next competition to try his best.
