35 – Reassignment Test (3)

After the reassignment test method was decided, there were teachers who opposed the method.

“You gave a very difficult assignment to a freshman. “What if I continue to criticize the dean?”

“Students may be killed or injured!”

“Something like that happened during the entrance exam, and I found the golem again…” .”

The reasons for teachers’ opposition were the same.

Because it’s dangerous.

If students get hurt, the teachers themselves must take responsibility.

Evan Lotus, head of the first-grade class, called together the teachers who were opposed. Since this test was related to entrance exams, there was no consensus other than those involved in admissions.

A day before the test started, he brought a container full of thin sticks.

“This is the lottery box used to draw the exam method. “In it, there are 999 lots containing safe test methods and one lot listing the current test method.”

“What does that mean?”

“Teacher Michael, please take a look.”

Michael was the teacher who was most opposed to this test among the first graders.

“It’s not my responsibility.”

“Just give it a try.”

He grumbled and cast lots.

“Oh, no… Unbelievable?”

“What came out?”

Michael revealed the lot.

Then the other teacher could not keep his mouth shut.

[Ether Collection Competition (+Golem)]

A lot was drawn containing exactly the same content as the test that freshmen were scheduled to take.

“Isn’t this a scam?”

“It is reality.”

“That barrel was tampered with.”

“Open and check. “Maybe that’s just one and the rest of the lots have different things written on them.”

Conservative teachers were all rummaging around.

As expected, that was right. All but one were safe and acceptable test subjects.

Evan gathered the swallows together and put them in a container.

“Teacher, please try again.”

“What a strange thing…” .”

“It’s not strange. “It’s an experiment.”

The head of the grade department said something meaningful and held out a lottery bucket.

Michael frowned but drew a random lot.

Soon he became so startled that he almost fell.

[Ether Collection Competition (+Golem)]

“Oh, this can’t be right.”

“Do you understand a little bit now?”

“Oh my, you idiot. “It looks like this because the lots weren’t mixed properly!”

“Then the teacher mixes it himself and tries it.”

I thought it was a fluke that the same result came out twice. Of course, there is no guarantee that the third time will be like this.

It is a battle of odds anyway. If the same lot is drawn this time, it would be such luck that you would have to go buy a lottery ticket.

Michael placed a swallow in the center and roughly mixed it. This way, physically speaking, the existing lot will be located near the center.

Michael grinned and drew a lot at the edge.

[Ether Collection Competition (+Golem)]

“Oh, this is crazy!”

He let out a double noise and slipped backwards.

The same result came out not once, not twice, but three times.

There was lukewarm silence in the teacher’s waiting room.

Evan, the grade manager, muttered while breaking into a cold sweat.

“…… “Do you understand now?”

“What do you know?!”

Michael quickly shouted and snatched the lottery container. Then they drew random lots.

[Ether Collection Competition (+Golem)]

“I’m so damn tired!”

I threw the lot I had just drawn on the floor and drew another one.

What is written on the lot is….

[— If you don’t follow the game, I will kill you all.]

It was a letter soaked in red ink.

***

[— Notification: A new task has been assigned.]

[— The ‘God of Wisdom and Curiosity’ loves outstanding humans. Prove that your abilities are not a fluke on the relocation test.]

Life is not something that is easy to solve.

Even if you try to catch your breath just a little, something else will quickly come up.

Just before entering the exam room. I checked the new homework given by Cartesia and sighed.

[1. There must be no change in your rank after the reassignment test.]

[2. Use the ‘Caliper of Wisdom’ to stun one person who is trying to show you arrogance.]

[— When successful: ‘Sage’s Guide (Lv.10)’]

[— In case of failure: destruction of the corpus callosum]

This time, two tasks must be performed simultaneously.

Is it unfair?

No.

It is natural that the number of assignments increases as foreign media attaches.

And when you succeed, the reward becomes sweeter.

The wise man’s guide.

It is a mythical item that tells you from a statistical perspective what will happen in the future.

If I could get it, I might be able to set a priority research direction.

I have to succeed somehow.

I spoke to Seti and Rustilla who were walking ahead.

“Let’s divide the roles. Seti explores, I collect and map, and Rustilla battles.”

“Wait a minute, why are you acting like a leader?”

“Then you do it.”

I naturally handed over command to Seti. She drooled for a moment, then opened her mouth.

“Let’s divide the roles. I explore, Idel collects and maps, and Rustilla battles.”

I knew it would be like this.

“Hey, what is mapping?”

Rustila asked.

“Ether has the property of interfering with things around it. If you handle it well, it’s useful for spotting golems and other students. Of course, it also helps in finding pieces of ether. That’s mapping.”

“I see. But isn’t that something you can do only if you know how to manipulate ether?”

Seti and Rustilla look at me intently.

It was Seti who asked first.

“Do you know how to handle it?”

“It hasn’t worked out yet.”

I am still inexperienced in handling ether. No, in fact, it would be close to impossible.

This is because foreign media is prevented from doing so.

[— In this task, you proceed without being able to manipulate ether.]

Does that mean you can’t handle ether just because foreign media is attached to it? That’s not it.

However, if you deem it necessary, you can restrict foreign media from using ether.

Preventing it from being used in situations where it is needed. This is also a play often used by foreign media.

Given Cartesia’s personality, it was clear that she expected me to overcome this challenge in an academic way.

Why don’t you do something stupid?

Is there anything to be afraid of when there is Rustilla?

I grinned and took out the item.

“Do you know what this is?”

“Isn’t it a tablet?”

“It’s a tablet. Instead, he specializes in spatial distribution calculations.”

“Can I come in with something like that?”

“The supervisor gave permission. “They let me bring my cell phone in for emergency purposes.”

“Anyway, what are you going to do with it?”

“It’s simple. If you can’t map it to the ether…….”

Just map it on a computer and that’s it.

We will create a function that can determine the depth of the ether and use it to determine the location of golems, etc.

“First, find a piece of ether. Then, the distance to the detection ether emitted by Seti is measured and entered into the information on this tablet. Then we can know the distribution of ether in global space.”

“What are you talking about?”

“They’re going to use a map hack on a computer.”

If you go deeper, you have to talk about power series expansion and topological space. It would be better to explain this to my high school friends and end it.

“I found it!”

As soon as Seti found a piece, I punched the calculator. Then, the function obtained in this way was drawn as a graph and displayed on the screen.

“This is our location. And the remaining sharply protruding parts are students or golems. “The thing that looks like a peak but has a flat top is most likely a piece of ether.”

“Wow.”

“… ….”

Rustila was impressed, and Seti was silent. Seti looked at me with suspicion.

But seeing is worth seeing, and as I headed in the direction I indicated, I was able to find one more piece.

“You’re lucky.”

Seti twitched her lips and muttered.

“You’re lucky.”

And once again.

“You’re lucky.”

Again.

“You’re lucky.”

Again.

“You’re lucky.”

From noble mtl dot com

Again, again, again, again.

“…… “I’m so lucky.”

Once about ten people had gathered, I took out the watch I had received in advance and opened the screen.

[Real-time score table]

[1. Eidel von Rhineland / Seti von Rhineland / Rustilla Kersil: 60 points (common)]

[2. Welton Eusford: 24 points]

[3. Matus Vitling: 18 points]

[4. Christine Herset / Mezlen Hüritia: 12 points]

Below that, most scores are 6 or 0.

It’s only been 10 minutes since the test started, so it’s natural that everyone’s scores are low.

But there was one problem.

[2. Welton Eusford: 30 points]

“I don’t know who that guy is, but I’m looking for him very quickly….”

Seti clenched her teeth as if she was angry.

If you look at the total score, we have the upper hand, but if you split the scores evenly, Welton Eusford is winning.

Of course, the results of the reassignment test include the entrance scores, so if things continue like this, Sethi and I won’t fall behind in the class.

Rustilla was not.

She should definitely show her talent here.

“… “This won’t work.”

We exchanged glances with each other.

“Let’s speed up.”

I took a deep breath, three, two, one.

Using the wind that blew at the right time as a signal, I quickly ran toward the directions indicated by the map core.

I collected the pieces, and collected them, and collected them again.

I started to get the hang of it from the middle part. When they found a rich area in the middle, they scattered for a while and then came back together to collect gems.

With the running skills of Rustila, an exercise fanatic, added to the mix, we were able to earn points in an instant.

[1. Eidel von Rhineland / Seti von Rhineland / Rustilla Kersil: 546 points]

[2. Welton Eusford: 180 points]

[3. Christine Herset / Mezlen Hüritia: 168 points]

[4. Matus Vitling: 150 points]

“It’s going smoothly so far.”

“But isn’t something strange?”

“… Wait for a sec.”

That’s right.

“There is no Zernia on the leaderboard.”

We soon found out why.

Quang! A loud bang was heard and the earth shook.

[2. Zernia von Adelbein: 300]

And once again.

Kwaang-!!

[1. Zernia von Adelbein: 600]

The scoreboard began to shake to the point where it tilted.
