Chapter 203 Wonderful Flower
Chapter 203
Dickson Holt can definitely be regarded as a strange flower in the Imperial Magic Academy.
He was twenty-nine years old this year and was born in the southern province of Lille. He was an ordinary father, and his father was a carpenter who specialized in doing some scattered work for nobles and wealthy families. His mother was a tailor. He lived in a small city called Kata in the province of Lille. He had a tailor shop at home.
Such a typical family of small handicraftsmen actually have a wealth of life. When Dixon Holt was sixteen, he showed his talent in magic. Before that, he had studied in a local church school for three years and could write and calculate. When he was sixteen, Dixon Holt's life had a turning point.
The Imperial Magic Union built a new house in the local branch, and Dixon's carpenter's father got a job. One day, when Little Dixon went to the Magic Union branch to deliver lunch to his father who was working, he was accidentally seen by a deacon mage from the local branch of the Magic Union. Then he found that the child was very smart and smart. The magician probably was idle because of the reason why he was too bored, so he tested the boy - the results were self-evident.
Dixon's fate has changed greatly since he was tested for his magical talent!
Even after the Magic Academy broke the monopoly of the magic union, the magic civilization of the Roland Empire has made great progress in the past hundred years, and the number of magicians has increased by about ten times compared to a hundred years ago - but the overall number is still very rare.
This is mainly because the profession of magicians relies too much on "talent"!
Humans themselves are not races that are famous for their magical talents, so among humans, there are very few people with magical talents. According to a not-so-complete statistics, among the 10,000 people, there may only be less than ten people with magical talents. This ratio is only one thousand.
With the civilization level of this world, the Roland Empire naturally cannot conduct a national population census and detailed screening like Chen Daolin is in the real world. Therefore, in fact, the number of magicians in the Roland Empire may not even reach one ten thousand compared to the population base.
Therefore, once a seedling with magical talent is discovered, it will attract great attention from relevant conveniences.
Dixon Holt's information was reported soon.
Originally following this trajectory, Dixon Holt would enter the Imperial Magic Union, be selected as a disciple by a certain magician, and then train it according to the ancient one-on-one teaching model - finally become a standard traditional old-fashioned magician, and then become a part of the magic union camp in the field of magic.
But the Magic Union is an ancient organization after all, conservative and stubborn. Many times, his style of acting is conservative and stubborn. Therefore, after discovering the good seedling of Dixon Holt, although the information has been reported, from the local branch to the union headquarters of the imperial capital, after approval, review, and then review, and assessment, and finally, Dixon is included in the shortlist for the appropriate magician to choose as an apprentice...
This process is very complicated - it has to be said that over the past century, the influence of the Magic Union has gradually been weakened by the Magic Academy, and there is a reason.
Compared to the slow reaction of the Magic Union, the Magic Academy's reaction speed is much faster!
The Magic Academy is a student officially founded by the Empire. After learning about this, the local municipal officials of Dixon also reported Dixon's affairs according to the procedures.
The Magic Academy's reaction was much faster than the Magic Union!
They immediately sent a magic teacher and two staff members to Dickson's hometown, and then when they faced Dickson, they conducted a magic talent test - the next day, Dickson was taken away.
A month later, Dixon had arrived in the imperial capital, entered the Magic Academy, and completed the admission procedures - and at this time, the information about Dixon was still under review within the Magic Union.
Dixon then became a preparatory student at the Magic Academy and conducted preliminary training and testing in the preparatory class - this process is to determine which department the students' talent is biased towards, and to allocate the branch students to enter based on this talent.
And the second turning point in Dixon's life is here.
It’s just that the preparatory class of the Imperial Magic Academy has always been the deans of several branches to take turns as the deacons. But when Dixon was in the preparatory class, it was Dean Carmen who was in charge of the preparatory class.
Every branch director will pull excellent seedlings into his branch as much as possible, so naturally there is no need to explain too much about this principle.
During the test, Dixon received outstanding evaluations, and was then selected by Dean Carmen to the Hogwarts Branch, becoming a student in the most glorious, legendary and strongest branch in the Magic Academy.
Dixon did not disappoint the evaluation of "excellent potential".
The standard of the Magic Academy has always been a six-year system. After completing the six-year standard school year magic education, Dixon successfully advanced to become a formal magician. When he graduated, his strength had reached the standard of a level four magician, and he just entered the threshold of a "middle-level mage".
You know, Dixon was not twenty-three years old at that time!
He became a mid-level magician at the age of 23. Even in the Imperial Magic Academy, a place where many geniuses emerge, he is definitely the best!
If you want to make a comparison, for example, Chen Daolin's mortal enemy Panin and the cold-faced handsome Goth, both in their twenties and became mid-level warriors, they were given the titles and titles of "geniuses".
Dixon is undoubtedly a genius, a magical genius!
Of course... This bastard like Chen Daolin who has entered the mid-level threshold in less than half a year after becoming a magician is not here - this bastard has a plug-in!
However, Dixon's name is not very famous, for only one reason: the magic subject he majored in is really too off-the-scenes!
If the magic he majored in is the most common and popular subjects such as the Fire, Wind, Water, Earth, etc., then Dixon, who became a mid-level mage at the age of 22 and a half, is definitely qualified to become famous all over the world! Become another rising star of hope in the Magic Academy!
But what Dixon practiced...
Transfiguration!
Transformation has always been an unpopular among many magic subjects.
Because this magic is extremely complicated to practice, but at the same time... it is not very practical, especially lacking practical value.
Transformation belongs to a branch of physical art.
Of course, it doesn't mean that this magic is very weak.
In fact, if you practice the Transformation technique to the depths, it is also very powerful!
If you are a high-level magician who is good at transforming, you can transform into various powerful monsters, which can be said to be ever-changing, and you can simulate all the magic abilities of the changed monsters!
From this point of view, the power of the Transformation lies in that the magicians who practice it are actually not limited by magic attributes from a certain perspective!
A magician of transformation can become a flame rhino, can use fire magic, can also become an ice and snow demon wolf, can use wind magic, can also become a giant monster in the water, can use water magic...
This is the true power and value of the Transformation Magician.
However... it is a very long, even far-reaching road to practice transformation techniques to a higher level.
According to legend, if the magician of the transformation reaches the holy level, he can even become the ultimate high-level creature - the Dragon Clan! And have the same abilities as the Dragon Clan!
However... there has been no magician in the Roland world who can practice transformation to this level in thousands of years.
Even though Dixon has practiced the transformation technique to the middle level, he will at most become some relatively weak monsters, such as the Ice and Snow Demon Wolf, which is the limit.
But the strength of the Ice and Snow Demon Wolf can be dealt with by just a low-level warrior.
You know, magicians have always been stronger than warriors.
In the same level, magicians are generally stronger than warriors. A magician of the same level can definitely defeat a warrior of the same level.
But the transfiguration...hehehe!
Before practicing the transformation technique to the advanced level, the actual effect of combat is very limited, so it has never been taken seriously and is also a big upset among all magic subjects.
It can be said that in recent decades, almost no one has been willing to choose to practice transforming techniques.
However...Dixon Holt is definitely a weird thing.
He chose such an unpopular subject to practice.
Therefore, although he obtained the status of a middle-level magician at a young age, he still had no reputation.
After graduation, he did not leave the Imperial Magic Academy, but chose to stay in the academy. Anyway, even if he left the academy, there were no real wealthy nobles who were willing to recruit such mages with little practical value. As for the native nobles in the countryside, Dixon was really not interested.
Besides, what else is more suitable for him in this world than the Magic Academy? He likes to study transformations, and the Magic Academy has the most inventory of magic documents, materials, materials needed for research, magic labs, and food and clothing...
In this way, Dixon stayed in the Magic Academy to teach, but he did not become a formal teacher in the academy because, except for him, no student in the academy practices transformation!
As for other subjects, he was too ordinary, so he had to enter the college's comprehensive management department and hold a position in the logistics department.
The son of this carpenter from the south is just a wild boy at heart and a troublemaker. During his few years in the college, he violated almost all the college rules he could think of.
If it weren't for the protection of Dean Carmen, he would have been swept out of the academy long ago - Dean Carmen did this purely for the sake of the transforming technique that Dickson practiced.
Few people are willing to practice this magic now. As the dean of the branch and the actual first person in the Magic Academy, Dean Carmen has a strong sense of mission. This woman believes that she has the responsibility to retain a seed of transformation for the magical world of the empire.
Even if you keep this little bastard, just treat it as filling a gap and put it there as a mascot.
At least, as long as Dickson is present, it can be regarded as: in the Magic Academy, the Transformation has not been cut off from its heritage.
Dean Carmen still attaches great importance to this significance.
So, Dixon, who was in trouble again and again, was suspended for probation again and again...
And at this moment.
Dixon stood at Chen Daolin's door early in the morning. Whether it was this guy who likes to cause trouble or Chen Daolin himself... neither of them knew a fact at this moment:
Dixon, the son of a carpenter from the south, has ushered in the third important turning point in his life since he stood at Chen Daolin's doorstep!
...
Chen Daolin grabbed his hair helplessly.
He was wearing a brand new robe from the Magic Academy, a black bachelor's robe, and a badge of the Hogwarts branch was embroidered on his chest. There was no doubt that because this branch was founded by Du Wei in the past, the pattern of the badge of this branch was naturally a tulip!
However, in order to distinguish the totem of the tulip family, the Hogwarts Branch badge tulips have been made some modifications.
The totem pattern of the Tulip Family is a tulip flower blooming in the flames.
Although the badge pattern of the Hogwarts Branch is also a blooming tulip, the background is not a flame, but... a flash of lightning!
"Hmph...is it a boy with a lightning mark?" Chen Daolin was speechless.
This Du Wei, how much do you like watching "Harry Potter"!
"What lightning, what boy?" Dixon turned his head and looked at Chen Daolin and asked in confusion.
The two were walking side by side on the wooded road leading to the Hogwarts Branch.
This guy is very enthusiastic about Chen Daolin, and he is very talkative - after all, he has been in this place for thirteen years since he entered the academy at the age of sixteen, and he has been in this place for a full thirteen years. He can be regarded as an old man in the academy.
Along the way, he was telling Chen Daolin about various strange stories and gossip inside stories in the academy.
However, Chen Daolin noticed that this Dixon never mentioned anything about Carmen!
Chapter completed!
