Magic!

Chapter 116 114. Professor Black Amber’s Concerns

Russell nodded lightly: "I really didn't expect that a decent magic academy would teach this knowledge."

Black Amber suddenly laughed:

"Russell, do you think I'm a good person?"

Russell replied without hesitation: "I think Professor you are an upright and kind cat."

Black Amber stared at Russell, her eyes filled with emotions:

"I have always firmly believed that the key to whether a power is good or evil lies in the person who uses it. What's more, the knowledge you acquire is not only the method of using evil magic, but also the skills to fight and counteract these evil magic."

The black cat's expression became more solemn: "Child, do you know why among the various majors in the college, the department of necromancy and life has almost the smallest number of people?"

Russell was lost in thought.

He knew that there were thousands of students in the college, almost all of them concentrated in the junior college. But among them, there were less than a hundred students from the Department of Necromancer and Life. The professor uses "almost" because the civil engineering department seems to have fewer students.

"I don't know." Russell gave the standard answer.

"Because when evaluating talents, the branch hammer sometimes also comprehensively considers students' other qualities. Different from other majors, students who want to be assigned to the Necromancy and Life Department will not only have the talents of the corresponding majors, but also comprehensively consider the students. Do you have the potential to resist temptation, not easily go astray, and have the ability to control your own desires? These values ​​that have nothing to do with magic talents will account for a considerable amount of points."

So that's it... Russell nodded lightly and raised another question:

"Then why are many of the demon worshipers of Chaos Red assigned to the undead and life systems?"

He remembered the professor saying that the members of the Demonic Order were mainly concentrated in this major and the Department of Creation and Summoning.

"On the one hand, it may be because their endowment scores in this major are too high; on the other hand, it may be because, even if students have the potential to resist temptation, it does not mean that they will not fall into darkness."

Speaking of this, Black Amber stopped and looked at Russell meaningfully.

After Russell carefully tried to figure out what Professor Black Amber meant, if he realized something, he showed an expression of sudden understanding:

"Professor, I think I understand.

"What you mean is that the Sorting Hammer's algorithm still has a lot of room for optimization.

“For example, shouldn’t weighted ratings simply be used?”

"..." The black amber cat was confused and didn't know how to reply.

"Ahem, in short, child, you are now one of the best spell casters in the elementary school, and you have a high-level contract spirit like Feng Chime. Your undercover work will continue, and I hope your newly acquired abilities can help You help.”

"Thank you." Russell nodded and asked again:

"Oh, by the way, Professor, you said that after I enter second grade, you can tell me the second sentence of the prophecy?"

He did not say that he had already heard the content of the second sentence of the prophecy from the demon believers of the Red Order of Chaos.

Black Amber's face clearly showed some hesitation:

"This...Procedure-wise, you haven't officially been promoted to the second grade yet. Let's wait until you officially pass the final assessment of the first grade."

"If I fail the final exam, do I need to return the knowledge I just learned to the teacher?" Russell chuckled and told a joke to liven up the atmosphere.

Professor Black Amber was silent for a while and returned to the original topic:

"Let's talk about you and Feng Chime filming a horror movie."

…

In the dormitory, Russell was lying on the bed, chatting with the wind chime on the screen of his mobile phone.

Wind Chime’s hands pressed on the screen:

"Russell Russell, what prophecy are you talking about? Is it related to the prophecy made by the Red Order of Chaos?"

Russell did not answer, but changed the subject:

"You should have felt it, Professor Black Amber's attitude towards me has always been strange."

"Absolutely not!" Feng Ling's pupils were shocked, "When you taught me the difference between decent people and villains before, wasn't she included in the decent role?"

Russell describes it in language that Wind Chime can understand: "Professor Black Amber is worried that I will become a villain one day."

"Does she still have this meaning? Why didn't she just say it?" Feng Chime scratched his head. She had been dead for too long, and her spiritual body's synapses had not been used for many years, and her brain was a little hard to turn around.

"Whether it is based on the principles of drama or the principles of witchcraft at the occult level, it is not a good thing to point it out directly. This is called a prophecy." Russell said lightly.

Wind Chime tried to imitate Russell's brain circuit and raised a genius question:

"Don't the decent villains start from your standpoint? If you become a villain, doesn't that mean that all decent villains have become villains?"

Russell didn't respond and closed his eyes silently. He visualized the room full of pennants in his home and replayed a dozen reports about "Little Hero Russell" in his mind.

He just closed his eyes and rested for a while, then slowly opened his eyes and said:

"Shall we talk about something more important?"

"What?"

"Making a horror movie."

…

The next morning.

"You are the 'Shadowless' Light and Shadow Art Club, right? I'm Russell. Professor Black Amber recommended me."

Russell greeted a group of students carrying cameras.

The Wuxiang Light and Shadow Art Club is a relatively "peaceful" force in the academy, even more peaceful than the board game club.

——After all, a few years ago, some students from the board game club turned into real werewolves during the magical werewolf game and killed everyone.

The president is a second-year boy in the Department of Psychiatry and Illusion. Filmmaking seems to be a way for him to practice the way of illusion.

I saw the president with an elegant face, tall figure, and a formal suit. He smiled and said to Russell:

"Our club has received a task from the professor and will assist you in shooting a horror video. Can I meet the actress the professor mentioned?"

Russell nodded slightly and took out his mobile phone from his pocket.

On the screen of the mobile phone, I saw a girl with long pure white hair floating around and her eyes slightly closed.

This screensaver is a two-dimensional one, wait a minute... In the president's shocked eyes, the girl on the screen saver opened her eyes, came to life, and got out of the screen.

Out of caution, Feng Ling used magic to modify the details of her facial features in advance to avoid being discovered by her murderer.

"Okay, let's start discussing specific matters." Russell put the phone back into his pocket with an indifferent expression.

…

In the following weeks, Russell dealt with the horror film shooting while trying to master the new abilities he had acquired after being promoted to the early second grade.

As for the daily classes, the content is too basic and simple for Russell now, and it is purely used as a break.

Relying on a lot of supernatural materials that he had purchased before, Russell began to try to refine various secret medicines.

Russell was half worried and half excited about this.

"I wonder if my magical talent, which can mutate extraordinary abilities, will allow me to prepare strange potions?"

The past few days have been relatively dull, it can be regarded as the calm before the storm. After the library plot begins in a few days, it will enter the 100,000-word end of the volume. It should be connected to many exciting climaxes until the end of the first volume.
