บท 195: Senior! You Have To Be Sensible! Not There!(2)
Blake could only nod and say, "Alright..."
He glanced at Professor Babbling's expression.
Blake quickly added, "Professor, your arrangement is really appropriate."
"How did you know I feel uncomfortable without Senior Penelope by my side?"
Professor Babbling laughed.
Penelope kicked Blake and said, "Stop talking nonsense!"
The three of them walked to the edge of the Forbidden Forest, chatting and laughing.
The edge of the Forbidden Forest had a flat hunting ground. It wasn't very large in size.
Usually, it was the location for advanced students to attend Magical Creatures Protection class.
But now, torches were lit around the hunting ground.
The originally pitch-black hunting ground was illuminated with a dim yellow light.
Blake noticed that many wooden targets had been set up in the hunting ground.
"Haha! Young man! Are you here to have tea with me?" Professor Kettleburn laughed heartily.
He was holding a wooden target in his hand. It seemed that he had helped with the setup of these targets.
"Um... not exactly, Professor. I'm here for detention," Blake said.
"Haha! I got it, because your sword can fly, right? I have to say, it looked very useful..."
"Hmm, if my moon-crazy beast that runs around all the time could be like your sword, I wouldn't worry about it sneaking into the forbidden forest and getting eaten."
After helping Babbling set up the venue, Professor Kettleburn bid farewell and left the hunting ground.
Just before leaving, he also invited Blake to have a cup of tea at his place after the detention.
"I didn't expect you to be so popular," Professor Babbling said.
"Ah? I thought you had already figured it out," Blake said, clutching his chest.
Professor Babbling laughed at Blake's teasing. "Haha, never mind, I won't joke with you anymore."
She took out a large roll of parchment and placed it on a table that had already been prepared.
"Do you remember those ancient Runes combinations we discussed a few days ago? Now... it's time to start testing!"
Penelope raised her hand and asked, "What should I do?"
"You will be in charge of recording, Miss Clearwater. Just sit here and write down the data I provide," Professor Babbling said.
Penelope nodded and sat down at the table, curiously watching Professor Babbling and Blake working in perfect harmony in front of her, preparing for the experiment.
In fact, she was still curious whether Blake's request to be confined at Professor Babbling's place was really to improve his proficiency in ancient Runes, as he claimed...
"Alright, let's begin!" Professor Babbling said. "First, we will test this combination... be careful, it might cause an explosion!"
Blake nodded and handed Professor Babbling a palm-sized blank paper card.
Professor Babbling took out a pen that was already filled with special ink and began to carefully write down those ancient Runes on the card.
These ancient Runes were quite dangerous. A single stroke mistake could lead to a dangerous situation. So, she couldn't afford to be careless. She even wore a suit of armour while writing.
After Professor Babbling finished writing carefully, she handed the card to Blake.
"Take a look, did I make any mistakes?"
"Well, no, I didn't expect you to make such progress," Blake said.
"Haha, of course, it's my talent... cough cough."
Professor Babbling instinctively wanted to boast about her talent.
Then she immediately remembered the little monster in front of her who had completely surpassed her after only two months of self-study.
"Never mind, you taught well," Professor Babbling announced humbly.
Not far away, Penelope frantically rubbed her own ears.
"Is there something wrong with my ears? Why did I hear that Blake taught Professor Babbling Ancient Sumerian?"
"Ah... I must not have slept well last night and woke up too early this morning, that must be it!"
Blake and Professor Babbling didn't pay attention to Penelope's expression.
Blake took the pen from Professor Babbling's hand and drew a small Ancient Sumerian symbol on those Ancient Sumerian texts.
"Use this rune to extend the time... Otherwise, it might explode before it even starts, isn't that dangerous?"
After finishing writing, Blake handed it back to Professor Babbling.
After looking at the few strokes Blake added, Professor Babbling frowned at first, then immediately showed a look of sudden realization.
"So that's how it is! The Ancient Sumerian text you gave me on that piece of parchment that day also had an extra symbol that seemed unnecessary."
"I thought that symbol was optional, I didn't expect it to be so useful!"
Then Penelope fell into self-doubt again. "I don't think I misheard... This..."
"It turns out that Professor Babbling is really consulting Blake! Consulting him on her own expertise in Ancient Runes!"
Suddenly, Penelope looked at Blake and Professor Babbling in shock.
Because she suddenly remembered something.
"If I didn't mishear... Doesn't this mean... Actually, Blake's proficiency in Ancient Runes is higher than Professor Babbling's?!"
[Ding! Detected a shocked emotion.]
[Ding! Extracting a treasure chest for the host.]
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining a silver treasure chest!]
Blake turned to look at Penelope and suddenly smiled. "Senior, why don't you give it a try?"
"Uh... try what?"
"Try our new usage of Ancient Runes."
Blake walked over, pulled Penelope up, and handed the card in his hand to Penelope.
Professor Babbling didn't stop him. Because her goal was originally to make Ancient runes serve the public.
In the end, many of the users of these products were people like Penelope who didn't know much about Ancient runes.
If these people couldn't get used to using this kind of product, then it would be impossible to promote it.
Then the new transformation of Ancient runes would not be able to continue.
Blake said, "Press down on this symbol with force. When you feel the card heating up, make sure to throw it away!"
"Do you know how to throw the card far?"
Penelope blinked her eyes and nodded.
"Great! Throw it towards that wooden target later! Remember, you must send it out!"
Penelope nodded again, although she was still filled with confusion. She didn't know why Blake wanted her to do this...
She stared with wide eyes at the wooden target over there.
Then she pressed down hard on that symbol. The next second, she felt the card starting to heat up.
A sudden sense of crisis surged from the bottom of her heart. Penelope quickly threw the card in her hand!
The trajectory of the card's flight was perfect!
It spun and hit the chest of the wooden target, then fell down.
However... when the card was still in mid-air...
"Boom!"
A violent explosion shattered the wooden target into pieces!
Penelope looked at the wooden target in shock.
If she hadn't thrown that card...
"Blake! I'm going to fight you!"
Penelope was almost scared out of her wits. She grabbed her wand and was about to go after Blake.
"Penelope, calm down!" Blake turned around and ran.
"Calm down? How can I be calm? You... you jerk! This was too dangerous!"
"Penelope, even if you didn't throw the card, I have the ability to protect you!"
The two of them chased and fled, with Blake dodging Professor Babbling's attacks.
But Professor Babbling suddenly reached out and grabbed Blake's neck.
Then she smirked and pushed him in front of Penelope.
"Professor? That's not fair! Ouch! Penelope, be gentle! Wait! Don't hit there!"
Just as Blake was being pummeled by Penelope's fists, he suddenly felt the coin he had kept close to his body heating up and sounding an alarm!
"Hmm? Is something happening at the Purple Horn Tribe?" Blake looked towards the depths of the Forbidden Forest...
