Chapter 986: Soda Water and Pomegranate Skirt (Ⅰ)

Although Joan felt that Professor Moriarty was purely tossing, he was not good at rejecting the enthusiasm of his tutor. He had to accept his arrangement and take his own paper for the "Franklin Award" to try the water.
If you can't even compete for the "Franklin Award", the "Academic Rising Star Award" is even less hopeful, or don't think about the beautiful things, wash and sleep as soon as possible.
In fact, in addition to the "Franklin Award" and "Academic Rising Star Award", the Austrian-African academic community also has several awards with higher gold content. The crowd of candidates is broader, and there are no qualifications, titles or age restrictions.
The three most important awards, in order of increasing gold content, are the "Eberton Award", the "Holy Crown Award" and the "Golden Rod Award".
The "Eberton Award" was named by the billionaire Mr. Alberton Weinstein, the most famous legendary Archmage of the Holy Asan Empire and the founder of "International Magic Company", "Eberton Weinstein The "Foundation" undertakes and provides bonuses, which are selected once a year, and the winners can receive a 100,000 gold Duga bonus.
The "Holy Crown Award" has a longer history. It is organized by the Feizhen National Olympic Research Institute. It is selected every three years, and the Asbel Royal Foundation provides bonuses.
In accordance with established practice, the current Royal Prince attended the award ceremony of the "Holy Crown Award" by the current crown prince, and personally awarded the winners a prize of 500,000 pounds and the Lord's Ribbon. The winners will be rewarded with fame and fortune, and will be promoted to a noble class from now on, and will also be honored to participate in the royal dinner.
The last and most important award is the "Golden Rod Award" founded by the Austrian Law Society. It is awarded every five years and is the highest honor of the Valais World Austrian Academy. The winners are all quasi-legendary and even legendary spellcasters. , Is actually a "lifetime achievement award".
The prize money of up to 1 million gold Durga is indeed a huge sum of money, but for those world-class universities who are qualified to compete for the "Golden Rod Award", the prize money is not the most important. Anyway, they have not lost money. What's more important is that this supreme honor affirms his lifelong academic career. After the award, his name can be firmly recorded in the history and become an indelible monument in the history of human civilization.
When the teacher and student were chatting, Joan set off a magic wave in front of him, and a ball of red light appeared.
Joan held the light ball to read the information, and then stood up to say goodbye to the teacher.
"Hurry?" Professor Moriarty asked casually.
"It's no big deal...Hailal called me to play billiards today." Joan replied embarrassedly, feeling he was a little unemployed.
"Haha! Go, go, this is a big deal!"
Professor Moriarty smiled and waved, urging him to leave. A lonely and introverted student like Joan, who can integrate into the group and occasionally participate in club activities, is already very difficult, and deserves praise and encouragement.
In the South and North of the New World, customs, fashion and other aspects are different. As a Southerner studying in the North, Joan feels the deepest difference between this culture and the North.
The mainstream culture of the southern society is the manor culture. The southern social elites represented by the manor owner are more conservative and have no common language with their compatriots in the north. They are closer to the feudal landlords and nobles of the old world. The most popular leisure There is no more entertainment than horse racing and hunting, and of course there is a salon hosted by ladies.
In the prosperous north of industry and commerce, people's activity space is mainly concentrated in the bustling and crowded city, rather than the country manor, and the pace of life is significantly faster than the south.
Limited by the busy rhythm of life, outdoor sports such as horse racing and hunting are not popular in the north. The club social circle full of beer, tobacco and yellow jokes is far more attractive to the working class than the literary salons of the broad ladies. The most popular pastime in the club is playing cards and billiards.
The various clubs on the university campus are actually clubs, and there are always figures around the table playing cards and swings.
Joan is not the kind of young person who likes to play and can play, but it happens that he is good at playing cards and billiards.
Needless to say, Joan's card skills, playing billiards is a new skill that has just been developed recently.
His mentor, Professor Moriarty, is a top billiards master. During the half-month vacation in Baden Hot Springs, he spends two hours in the club of the "Spa Palace" Hotel every afternoon.
During this period, Joan's task is to play with.
For some reason, the teachers and students were on the blacklist of local brand friends. When the two people played poker strangely, billiards became the only pastime.
Joan had no interest in billiards at first, but just dared to play with his instructor and was tortured for ten rounds every afternoon.
After playing a lot, there will be some experience, and the ball skills have also been significantly improved. At the same time, Joan's impression of billiards has also improved.
Now he finds that he wants to develop a good ball skills, not just playing accurately, but also know when to attack, when to play a defensive, and generally understand the impact force, angle, table friction on impact The influence of the trajectory of each sphere.
Most people sum up their skills from experience. Joan’s exposure to billiards is still very shallow. He completely relies on logical thinking and sophisticated calculation skills to make up for the lack of experience.
The classmates and friends around him, such as Hailar, sister Zion, Angel and Ryan, are all billiard lovers. The society they belong to, the "skeleton club", also often organizes billiard games.
Joan rushed to the exclusive activity room of the "Skull Club". Hailar, who just sent him a letter, already played on the pole and was playing against another boy in the same club on the table. His red skirt fluttered while swinging. Chic and beautiful.
After Joan entered the house, he took off his coat and handed it to a club officer who took the initiative to serve. After thanking him, he asked the diligent and enthusiastic elementary school girl to help him hang the coat on the hanger.
In fact, people are two years older than him, except that Joan is a graduate student, and others are undergraduates. He relies on seniority by arranging seniority.
Joan unbuttoned the first button on the neckline of the white shirt, rolled up the sleeves, and took the cue put on the hands of the school girl.
Good luck, the opponents I met in the first two rounds were all roosters, and the second opponent was Lane.
It took Joan ten minutes to kill the first opponent in two straight games.
Next to Ryan, Joan won't have any suspense to win, but there is no need to use a hurry like the previous one. First, he will save face for Ryan. Second, the two of them can talk more, sometimes Just patronizing the chat, the rhythm of playing naturally slowed down.
