Boy, I'm Galileo
As Lynn silently complained in his heart, a sound came from behind.
"How do you feel? Are you satisfied, Professor Lynn?"
The speaker was Teke, the alchemist from the city of wizards, stroking his beard with pride.
Last night, after Lynn ran away under the name of drunkenness, a group of professors discussed how to record the shocking experiment this morning in the form of sculpture.
This is one of the highest honors of the whole college!
It means that every student who joins Yieta College in the future will be able to look at each other's deeds at the moment when they enter the gate of the college.
He also made some small suggestions on the external form of the sculpture. In addition to the magic of several professors and the hard work of the goblins day and night, the sculpture was completed in just half a day.
"It seems that... well... it's shocking..." Lynn said against his will. In fact, he thought the artistic level of this sculpture was just so so.
Tik himself was very satisfied with the work, and did not hear the perfunctory words of the other party. Instead, on the way to the Mathematical Olympiad Classroom, he explained to Lynn how to express the inner thoughts of a wizard through sculpture.
Lynn kept a polite smile on his face until he stepped into the classroom.
After being divided into classes, the number of people in the whole elite class was much less, only 46 people remained.
No, I'm afraid it will be 47 from today.
Because there is another Lydia!
At the moment, the half body girl is sitting at the front of the whole classroom. Because of her short stature, the table and chair are special. They are one size smaller than others and look very abrupt. Lynn focuses on her at the first sight after entering the door.
Facing Lynn's eyes, Lydia did not tremble like other students. Instead, she held up a parchment roll and said eagerly. "Professor, can we start the class now?"
Ellock, Peirce and others looked at Lydia with more pity and nostalgia. They vaguely remembered how excited they were on the first day of Maths Olympiad.
"Since everyone can't wait, then start class now!" Lynn turned to the gray haired witch and said.
"Johnny, please collect all your homework..."
"I gave you a whole day, so you must have calculated the data of the lookout already, right?" Lynn said with a smile.
As soon as this word came out, the classroom suddenly howled.
As members of the elite class of mathematical olympians, each of them has a good talent for numeracy. However, the structure of the "Outlook" airship is very complex, and the best airship airbag is oval.
Although Lynn has taught the corresponding formula and given some data before, it is still extremely difficult to accurately calculate it.
But no matter how unwilling they are, they can only hand over the calculation paper, and Lydia is no exception.
In fact, during most of the month when she was making airships, Lynn would talk about many geometric formulas and theorems every time she took the time to explain the drawings to her, so her learning progress was not lower than that of the students in these elite classes.
Lynn took a stack of parchment rolls collected by Johnny, frowned at the first one and said. "Debra, why is it only the size of the air bag and the cockpit, and the tail wing?"
"But you didn't give the data of the airship tail......" The red haired witch stood up and said weakly.
"But it can be calculated, can't it?" Lin En looked at the wizards present and explained.
"The shape of the tail wing can be divided into a right triangle and a square. I gave you an equal scale plan. If you pay attention, you can find that a bevel of the cockpit is parallel to the bevel of the airship tail wing, and the length is the same. Since there are data on the bevel, you can easily calculate other data by using the Pythagorean theorem..."
This is not easy at all... The red haired witch is sad.
Lynn was relentless and said directly. "Copy the corresponding formula fifty times after you go back! In addition, before class, calculate a new data for me!"
A group of students under the stage could not help shrinking their necks. They also failed to calculate the area of the tail wing.
"What is this Pythagorean theorem?" Teke turned to look at Ellock on the side and asked inexplicably.
"It is a kind of operation rule discovered by the professor. When a right triangle on the plane is added with the square of the length of the two right sides, it will be equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse..." Ellock looked at his notebook several times to confirm that he was right, and his expression was slightly excited.
After attending yesterday's awarding ceremony, he naturally knew that there was a three ring wizard and alchemist in front of him!
Such a big man is asking himself questions!
Ellock felt that this was probably the most glorious moment of his life!
"What is square?" asked Teke. These nouns were strange to him.
"Square is the multiplication of the same two numbers..." Ellock was so sure that he didn't even look at the formula in his notebook, and then introduced the area formula of circle and polygon to the alchemist.
Teke's face showed a clear look. When he learned to draw the pattern of the array, he also noticed similar laws, but he did not summarize the laws of each shape like Lynn, and formed an independent discipline.
Some alchemists in the City of Wizards like to think about these things. It is said that someone even pushed Pi to the ninth place after the decimal point, which is too precise to be precise anymore
Elok looked at Lynn on the eyestand, estimated that his homework had not been mentioned so soon, and a bold idea came into his mind. Looking at Teke, he said with a worried expression.
"Mr. Teke, some time ago, Professor Lynn invented an interesting game. Do you have any interest?"
"What game?" Teke was more or less curious.
Elockton was so excited that he picked up a feather pen and casually drew a three by six square on the parchment. After thinking about it, he crossed out the last square and then explained the rules of the game.
"Starting from a copper coin, must the amount of the next box be doubled compared with the previous box?" Teke repeated, and then wondered why Ellock had crossed a box.
"Yes, as long as you can fill all the boxes, these ten gold coins will be yours!" Ellock directly took out all his savings, and then continued. "But any coins you put down are mine!"
The difference between one copper coin and ten gold coins is a hundred thousand times more
Teke became more and more interested in this game. He silently calculated in his heart, and then took a pen to fill in the box.
When filling in the last number, Teke said with great interest with a surprised voice.
"Interesting, really interesting!"
The seventeenth square is 650536, so all the values add up to
"One hundred and thirty-one thousand and seventy-one copper coins!" Ellock hurriedly replied.
It took Teke more than ten seconds to add it, and it was exactly right.
He knew at the beginning that he would lose. After all, the wizard apprentice in front of him could not give him money for nothing, but he did not expect that the sum of 17 small squares would increase the initial value by 130000 times.
In this case, the other party deliberately crossed out a box. Is it because they are afraid that the amount is too large and they regret it?
Tixton could not laugh or cry, because he didn't bring silver and copper coins, he directly took out four magic gold coins and put them on the table. He always wanted to win!
"Three gold coins is enough!" Elok did not dare to ask for more, and hurriedly pushed one back.
The alchemist in front of him was not the first one to be set up by him. After he had eaten in Professor Lynn's house before, he immediately went home to find his father Albert to play this checkerboard game.
In the end, he theoretically won all the property of his family, and Albert still owed him tens of thousands of gold coins... But as a result, he didn't get any money, and was severely beaten!
So far, he understood that excessive greed will be beaten
Fortunately, this alchemist is a man of his word!
Elok happily accepted the three gold coins, but the next second he heard a familiar voice on the stage.
"Eylock, since you are familiar with the formula of Olympiad Maths, why don't you come to the stage and tell everyone about it?"
The happy expression on the face of the fifteen or sixteen year old boy suddenly froze, and he shivered and stood up slightly.
Lynn looked at him kindly.
Good boy, use the knowledge I gave you to teach others. You really have a way!
Under the gaze of a group of students who were gloating, Ellock had to force himself to the platform, pick up a parchment roll, and use his shallow knowledge of mathematical olympiad to talk about
In his life, Elok never felt that the time was so long. He had already forgotten everything in his mind when he was nervous. There were bursts of laughter from time to time, and he was expelled after only staying on the stage for more than ten minutes.
Considering the learning progress of Tik and Lydia, Lynn reviewed the geometric formulas previously mentioned in the next class.
When the class was over, Teke also sent him a return gift, a book with four fingers thick - Runes and Alchemy.
Although there are some basic alchemy books in Yieta College, it can't be compared with the gift of a master alchemist.
Lynn turned over several pages. In addition to the analysis of some basic alchemy runes, the book wrote notes at the bottom of each page.
These notes can never be written temporarily, but should be the "textbook" used to teach a core apprentice before.
Even so, it is also a very precious gift, which means that when learning alchemy, you can avoid many detours.
Lynn casually made a few polite remarks and put away the alchemy book.
After listening to an Olympic math class, Tim's mind was full of all kinds of questions that needed Lynn to answer. However, after glancing at the half body girl who had been walking around since the class ended, he left with a very interesting farewell.
"Professor Lynn!" Lydia came up at once, put her bulging purse on the platform with her feet propped up, stuck her waist and said proudly.
"Yesterday, we sold 837 tickets all day long, including 83 magic gold coins and 70 silver coins..."
The halfling girl kept on talking about the grand occasion on the square yesterday afternoon. The team taking the airship all the way to the harbor wharf. Everyone can't wait to fly to the sky to have a look
In just one day, so many tickets were sold. Lynn was also surprised. It seems that the charm of flying is even greater than he imagined.
"Oh, and this account book, Uncle Darren asked me to give it to you!" Lydia took out a pamphlet and put it into Lynn's hand, which recorded the list of all the people who bought tickets, and even wrote down which batch of airships clearly.
Lynn asked Zhinao to write down all these data, then took out the eight gold and thirty-seven silver that belonged to the halfling in the purse and returned them to Lydia together with the account book.
"When you get back, tell Darren that you don't need to send it every day. Just show it to me again every other time."
The expression of the halfling girl became confused, because Lynn's reaction was different from what Darren and others had predicted. With such a large amount of money, they thought that the other party would definitely ask for an inspection every day.
Lynn didn't explain either. He deliberately relaxed the control of money, just to see if these halflings would make some small moves secretly.
An airship is just the beginning. There are many opportunities to earn gold coins in the future. For example, the wizard's land still uses very backward papyrus and parchment rolls to record words. He can earn a lot by selling paper.
It's just that he can't do these things himself. He must hire some trustworthy people.
It depends on whether these halflings can resist the greed in their hearts.
While they were talking, a sudden sound of footsteps came from the door, and then the door of the classroom was slammed. Lynn turned his head and saw no one at first. Only when he lowered his head did he find that Darren had broken in.
After a day's absence, the bearded halfling became much more haggard than before. He came in and looked around. When he saw Lin En, he suddenly seemed to see the savior, and said in a panic.
"No, Professor Lynn, Ralph... Ralph is dead!"
Ralph? Who is that?
Lynn paused for a moment, and before he could think clearly, he was dragged away by the eager Darren pulling his sleeve.
(PS: Today, it is still a two in one chapter.)
