Chapter 28: Insufficient Mental Strength
When Su Nian was choosing her major, she expressed her wish to choose the mecha course to her teacher without hesitation. Her eyes were shining with determination, as if she saw herself flying in the interstellar space in a mecha.
However, the teacher frowned, looking embarrassed, and said hesitantly: "Student Su Nian, if you major in mecha courses, your mental power must reach level C. And..." The teacher paused, as if he was choosing his words. Seeing Su Nian's shabby clothes, he felt a little reluctant, but still said: "And the cost of studying mecha courses is very high." When saying this, the teacher's voice was a little low, and there was a hint of pity in his eyes.
When Su Nian heard this, his heart skipped a beat and the light in his eyes dimmed a little, but soon hope was rekindled. He said, "Teacher, if my mental strength is improved, can I study mecha courses?"
The teacher looked at Su Nian's eyes full of expectation and perseverance, and his heart was moved. He nodded and said, "In theory, it is true, as long as your mental strength can meet the requirements. But Su Nian, you must know that improving mental strength is not an easy thing. It requires a lot of effort and time. Moreover, the mecha course not only requires high mental strength, but the cost of learning is not something that ordinary people can afford."
Su Nian bit her lip and said firmly: "Teacher, I am not afraid of difficulties. I will definitely work hard to improve my mental strength!"
The teacher sighed and said, "Don't be discouraged, kid. Even if you don't major in mecha, you will have the opportunity to come into contact with mecha in some practical courses and activities at school. It's just that mecha driving requires a lot of mental strength, and it will be difficult below level C."
Then, the teacher began to introduce other military courses suitable for girls. "For example, the Military Strategic Analysis course mainly studies various strategies and tactics in interstellar wars. It cultivates students' thinking and decision-making abilities through battlefield simulations and case analysis. This requires you to have keen insight and clear logical thinking. There is also a Military Communication Technology course, which teaches you how to efficiently and securely transmit information in a complex battlefield environment. It includes knowledge of encryption technology, signal interference and anti-interference, etc."
As the teacher spoke, he observed Su Nian's expression. Seeing that she was listening attentively, he continued to introduce: "In addition, material production and material decomposition courses are also good choices. The material production course will teach you how to synthesize and create various advanced materials for making weapons and equipment. You need to understand the characteristics and synthesis methods of different materials and master the precise production process. The material decomposition course focuses on studying how to decompose and recycle waste materials and extract useful components from them. This requires patience and meticulous operation."
Su Nian followed the teacher and walked past the rows of course introductions, her eyes constantly scanning the names and introductions of various courses. She felt a little complicated, on the one hand, she couldn't forget the mecha course, on the other hand, she was also thinking seriously about the other courses introduced by the teacher.
Suddenly, her eyes stopped at the course introduction of Horcrux making.
The teacher noticed her gaze and said, "Few people choose the Horcrux making course. Because the making of a Horcrux is extremely complicated and difficult, few people can make one successfully. Among so many students who studied Horcrux making, only two succeeded, and that was after countless failures." The teacher thought to himself, "These two students suffered a lot at the beginning."
Su Nian muttered to herself: "Is this Horcrux based on the same principle as the thousand paper cranes she folded earlier?" But she also knew that this shouldn't be that simple.
After thinking it over again and again, Su Nian finally chose a course related to materials. "Teacher, I decided to choose a course related to materials. I want to lay a foundation for improving my spiritual power in the future by studying these."
The teacher smiled and nodded: "Okay, I hope you can gain something from this course. But you have to remember that if you perform better in other non-major courses than in your major courses in subsequent studies, you can also apply to change your major course."
After choosing the courses, Su Nian took the course schedule and prepared to buy the corresponding textbooks and learning tools. She secretly vowed in her heart that she must study hard in these courses and improve her mental strength as soon as possible, so that she could realize her dream of driving a mecha one day.
Su Nian came to the textbook purchase area and saw the dazzling array of textbooks and price tags. She couldn't help but take a deep breath. Those prices were simply astronomical figures for her, and she tightly grasped the few remaining credit points in her hand.
