When it came to commuting, a certain someone missed the memories of his childhood anime and the mechanical cat that could pull out all kinds of convenient props from his pocket. At that time, he had a discussion with his friends. If he could have one of Doraemon's props, what would he choose?
Anywhere Door! This was the option most people chose. To be able to save time from "moving" was the dream of many people.
But since he was in a magic world, Lin had of course considered using the very magic product — the teleportation array. But after learning about the cost of the teleportation array in detail, a certain someone was defeated. It was the same level of price and difficulty as the energy pool to build a magic tower.
And in terms of the use of materials, a teleportation array couldn't be completed by piling up some rotten things on the street. The collection of some rare materials, even Najib, the manager of the chamber of commerce, admitted that some things could only be found by chance. For example, the Void Star Core, which could only be entered into the secondary plane to try one's luck. In comparison, there were more alternatives to the construction of the energy pool.
Since this kind of idea of building a high-speed rail or a rapid transit for his own point-to-point commuting didn't work, Lin could only consider the traditional way. The general solution of the Lost Land was to get a horse, a more particular solution was to get a carriage. A little more advanced was to get a magic beast stronger than a horse to pull the carriage.
Lin looked out the window and saw two big dogs lying on the lawn in boredom. Using them to pull the carriage was imposing enough, but it would cripple them. There was a reason why the ancient earth separated the warhorses from the ordinary horses.
Although the house in this neighborhood could be used as a stable, it was now used as a warehouse. The cost of raising a horse wasn't a big problem for Lin now. The question was how to raise it? Who would raise it? Hire another groom? Really make himself look like a noble with a group of servants at home?
Marco Lin didn't want to live like that. He wanted as few irrelevant people as possible. How could he increase the number of people who seemed to share his life's chores but actually had the opportunity to spy on his privacy? Was there sunshine and cheerfulness in the house? Maybe there was. But staring at the only bright screen in the dark and watching the animated characters flash was the highest level of enjoyment.
Then, how about building a sports car for himself?
The development of the Lost Land was very strange. Wheeled vehicles appeared very early on. There were all kinds of carriages, carts, and handcarts, but they were all animal or human powered. The power equipment had also been available for a long time, and that was the magic puppets created by the magicians. He had only heard of the goblins developing rail trains that were similar to Earth's trains.
In the end, due to the huge consumption and no economic benefits, it could not be popularized. Only a few important cities in the empire were connected, and the distance between them couldn't be too far.
In other words, the Mystic Land had not yet developed personal powered vehicles. Or rather, someone was researching it in some corner of the Maze World. Lin just didn't know about it.
The magicians in the Mystic Lands were still limited to the design of magic puppets that existed in the natural world, or even humanoid. Their logic and thinking had yet to truly spread out.
Secondly, the people here would stubbornly use only magic materials when making magic tools. This was the most convenient method for Spellcasters because they could solve all the problems of shape by using Shaping. However, the price was exorbitant and high.
Of course, mixing wasn't something that could be achieved by putting together magical and non-magical components. There were still many problems that had to be solved. In other words, even if Lin Xiang wanted to make a sports car to solve the problem of commuting to the academy, this plan would have to be postponed indefinitely. At least, he would have to wait until the academy was on track and he had more free time.
Until then, he would have to rely on his two legs to solve all the problems.
After finishing his conversation with Fen, dinner and evening classes, Lin stared blankly at the starry sky. A new job and a new home would give people a different feeling. He waved goodbye to the intoxicating starry sky early. Tomorrow morning, he would have to get to the academy before dawn to make it in time for the children's morning classes and the beginning of the hellish drill.
The next day, just as dawn broke, there were still feather-like snowflakes. The snow had not yet accumulated, but it was already cold. Lin and his two apprentices wore short jackets and stood in the small square in the courtyard. John Goodman was in high spirits, dressed in an overcoat. When he saw them, he walked out of the house and met up with the three apprentices.
Looking at the big clock hanging on the wall of the third floor in the center of the protrusion, it jumped to six o 'clock. Lin nodded at Hallumi who was standing on his left.
The girl picked up a small trumpet, took a deep breath, and put it to her lips. Then, she played a melodious and loud Earth's version of reveille. Fortunately, the academy was not located in Wulian City. The penetrating power of the small trumpet and reveille was amazing. Unless one was deaf, no one would be able to ignore the noise that disturbed one's sleep.
And this was the astonishing talent that Lin had discovered while observing Hallumi's growth. She had a good sense of music and the ability to play all kinds of musical instruments.
The first sign was when she was adventuring in the wild before she moved into the Tower of the Great Sage. With just a leaf, the girl played a very familiar tune. Of course, Lin once hummed that tune casually. The girl heard it and remembered it. When Hallumi was bored on a sleepless night, she casually picked a leaf, tried a few notes, and played the tune.
Although the culture in the Land of Enchantment was poor, it was not completely absent. Horns, lyres, and drums. Basically, there were three major types of musical instruments. Wind, string, and percussion instruments had already appeared. But those who knew these things, other than those who were interested in self-learning, were wandering bards.
Although the name of this profession had the word "poet", it should feel very romantic. In fact, the social status of bards was on the same level as clowns who played dumb and made people laugh. It was not a noble profession. The girl's talent had no room for development. Of course, in some places, women who knew how to play musical instruments were more popular than people who did not know anything. But that was not a good path for a magic apprentice.
But for a certain transmigrator from Earth, this kind of talent could be said to be a priceless treasure. Not to mention other things, it was not easy to play a tune using a Roman trombone modified into a keyless trumpet. But the girl did it, and it was so good that it was beyond a certain person's imagination.
Just by vibrating her lips, the copper trumpet could play all kinds of tunes. The girl loved it so much that she could not put it down. But because the sound was too loud and not suitable for playing in any place, Hallumi did not show this talent in front of others until today.
The tune of the reveille was originally loud and beautiful. The penetrative power of the melody was amazing. John Goodman, who was on the side, enjoyed this kind of melodious music. But for those who were sleeping, this was not good music. The group of half-grown children had nothing to say. Mrs. Duli, who was sleeping soundly, and the Archmage and his disciples, who were fooling around late last night in their new environment, were all quarreled.
Juan Javier, whose mind was still not clear, had hazy eyes and a splitting headache. He just wanted to throw a forbidden spell outside. Annmarie, who knew this would happen, lay on the side and covered her head with a feather pillow. Mrs. Duli put on a coat for herself and wanted to go outside to see what was going on.
However, the reveille stopped after two rounds. Lin took the iron scroll loudspeaker from Kaya's hand and roared, "Damned brats, wake up. Today is the official start of school. Move your fat buttocks, brush your teeth, wash your face, and wear clothes that are easy to move around. Don't catch a cold. Once you fall sick, no one can help you except yourself. Gather at the square in ten minutes. Everyone, I repeat, everyone. Those who are not there in ten minutes will be in big trouble. There are nine minutes left after I finish speaking. "
On the east side of the house, the children's room faintly heard panicked noises. With Lin's voice announcing the time every minute, 26 children gathered in the courtyard in the cold morning. Everyone's faces were red, and white smoke was coming out of their mouths. Lin first scolded a few children who did not wear enough clothes and would definitely catch a cold if they stayed in the snow for too long.
Then he said, "I'll give you two more minutes to put on your clothes. Winter clothes have already been given to you. You're saving them because you want to receive God's grace earlier. Two minutes, do you understand? If you don't understand, just look at the big clock above your head. When the fourth number jumps from one to three and you appear without wearing your clothes, you'll know what it means to be in big trouble. Hurry up and go! "
The stumbling child rushed back, then rushed back. However, they overdid it and even put on their coats. Warm work was definitely warm work, but the activities after that would cause them to suffer. Lin sneered and did not expose them. He scolded the children to stand in a row according to their dormitory and then arranged them according to their height. After scolding for a while, they finally lined up.
"I know some of you will be dissatisfied and don't know why you have to be treated like this. I only want to tell you that this is a choice. " At the same time, Kaya distributed the red, white, and red cloth armbands to everyone, along with a pin. In the confusion of the crowd, she demonstrated the armband on the left upper arm. Some did as they were told, while others looked confused. "The armbands given to you represent that you are students of the 726 class of Orange Eaton Academy. In a few days, it will be the 727 class. The new students will have different armbands to distinguish them from you. "
The children could not understand the meaning of the things on their hands or arms. They just looked at someone with confused expressions. Was it necessary to wake them up early in the morning and distribute things in such cold weather?
