Love and passion, cutting up the wasteland

Chapter 92 Ancient Science Book

The world is not without newly published books, and there are also many people who value the inheritance of knowledge.

As far as Lu Meng knows, there is an organization that maintains the only university at the "end of the world" and writes the knowledge they have learned into books, prints and publishes them and sends them to all over the world.

These books are so valuable.

Even the Holy Kingdom, which rejects the development of science and technology, has to admit that the knowledge in it can better help them accumulate wealth, reproduce miracles, and consolidate their faith.

So the Holy Kingdom trained a group of specialists who were responsible for removing the covers of these books, replacing them with parchment book covers printed with the holy fire, packaging them in a sacred manner and sending them to the temple for the priests to read.

They declared that these texts, also given by Auckland, were too esoteric to be read by common people, and that only clergy of firm faith and profound knowledge would not be led astray in reading them.

——Oakland has prepared a more accessible reading for others, "Holy Fire", which also contains all the knowledge from the past to the present and into the future.

But there is a kind of book, Holy Kingdom will never compromise.

"Book of Ancient Science".

Blue cover, plasticized paper, profound words, and lost knowledge.

Each book is a non-renewable cultural relic. It is said that studying it can lead directly to the devil's mansion. The knowledge inside once destroyed the world and will release the minions of darkness.

This is an absolute no-no.

Lu Meng stroked its cover. It still looked brand new, but it no longer smelled like the ink when it left the factory. Instead, it had a hint of scorched earth, as if it had traveled through history and was filled with dust.

In his opinion, the ancient science book Huo Buyang found only recorded part of the forging technology of ancient civilizations, and was far from capable of destroying the world.

The more technology develops, the more branches and categories it finally has. A thick book can only record a few techniques in one of the tiny fields.

Originally, if Lu Meng wanted to understand it, he must first have certain attainments in [Blacksmithing] or [Technology], or first read the entry-level books published by that university as a basis.

But now, this mod comes to his rescue:
["Official Chinese Supplements and Corrections" Module (Level C)]

Ability to convert lingua franca into Chinese.

Lu Meng's lingua franca is completely at the level of his native language, and there is no difficulty in using it. It stands to reason that this module cannot enhance his ability to understand new knowledge.

Only after actually using it, he understood the reason.

The biggest obstacle for people to read ancient science books is not the text, but the lack of pre-information.

——In other words, "knowledge chronology".

Ancient science books are professional books and are not intended for beginners.

Many of the words used in it are assumed by the author to be common sense to readers and will not be explained intentionally.

What's even worse is that for the people in the wasteland now, even the simple words used to explain it, many of the concepts contained in them have long been lost.

A bunch of unfamiliar and mysterious words are combined together to deduce another bunch of unfamiliar and mysterious conclusions... How can we not make people guess whether they are alchemy or potions, or the spells used by wizards to summon demons.

In this regard, Lu Meng's knowledge reserve is no different from other residents of the wasteland.

To put it simply, every word can be understood in common language, but when they are connected together, they cannot be understood.

however.

After module conversion, the words in the book became Chinese characters in Lu Meng's eyes, and everything was different.

The originally unclear reference suddenly clearly corresponded to the knowledge learned in the memory.

Just like after knowing that "Kan Erbahan" actually means "Pythagorean Theorem", he will not interpret it literally as "hooking between the thighs" like others.

Instantly lowers the reading threshold.

However, ancient science books are professional books after all, and cannot be read through by a layman like Lu Meng right away.

He has only just read the "Introduction" section of the book, which is an introduction to general education.

The following chapters become more and more in-depth, and the technologies and machines involved become more and more complex. For example, the iron-making machine and steel-making furnace for rolling steel plates are not something he can handle now.

Not to mention the black technology in the future.

Fortunately, even after just reading the introduction, Lu Meng has officially learned the [Forging] skill. He has gained more experience in maintaining weapons and protective gear. He has gradually begun to understand the material and force-bearing performance of his weapons, and he has also learned how to use them. It will be more convenient.

With the upgrade of [Forging] skills, he can also customize weapons and armor for himself and his team, directly improving his combat effectiveness.

as well as.With the Chinese module, Lu Meng may be able to preliminarily interpret those ancient documents.

Not just science and technology books.

There is also lost history.

"But it's too early to say this now." Lu Meng put away the ancient science book and pressed it into the bottom of his backpack.

What was recorded in this science book was not what he urgently needed. He could search for more other types in the future.

Even if you want to improve the [Forging] skill, the next thing you need to do is to practice it instead of just studying.

Knowledge must be transformed into skills through practice to truly learn.

He locked the door tightly, took out the machete from the two-layer bed board, put it on his knees, and polished it carefully with a soft cloth dipped in grease.

The cutting edge of the machete does not need to be sharp, as the strength alone is enough to cut off the enemy, but regular anti-rust treatment is still necessary, and it can also prevent blood from sticking to it and affecting the drawing of the knife.

……

"Give me all your strength!"

I don't know which mining head it is, and he is leading the gang members holding lanterns to inspect various mining sites.

"Don't be lazy!" The whip in his hand swung in the air, making a crisp "snap" sound.

The new mine leader didn't dare to slap the whip on the naked backs of these miners for no reason. He was not Director Li, and these miners were not slaves.

It's just that this gesture is enough.

Among the people here, he was the only one who knew that Hu Guan, the leader of the Qingyang Gang, was watching them silently at the scene.

It is different from the previous inspections that were just for show.

Leader Hu wanted to stay all night like them.

That's why the new mine leader didn't dare to hide aside and rest like his predecessors. He could only patrol the same route over and over again and shout the same slogans.

clap clap!

The sharp sound of the whip also brought a sense of peace to his heart, as if all the fear in his heart was shaken away.

You must know that he is the one who fainted on the spot when he heard that he was going to be the mine head.

These days, rumors are getting worse and worse in the gang, as if there is a curse on this position.

I heard that many people were so frightened that they couldn't sleep, so they went to see an old man from Xin Auckland because of his reputation. I don't know whether to confess to him or to seek exorcism from him. It is said that it was quite effective, and I could sleep well at night. .

But when he actually came to the mine to take office, he found that it was not as scary as the legend said.

Business as usual.

It might also be because that man gave him the confidence.

The new mine leader looked in one direction with a little awe.

Their leader - Hu Guan.

Hu Guan was wearing an ordinary Qingyang Gang sleeveless uniform, but the muscles all over his body seemed to be overflowing from it.A string of yellow and white necklaces was wrapped around his neck. Each bead was a tooth that Hu Guan had pulled out from the mouth of his enemy with his bare hands.

The god of war and guardian of the Qingyang Gang.

The majestic man just stood there, as if all ghosts and monsters were frightened by his masculine aura, and all enemies would bow under his iron fist.

With Boss Hu here, what else does he have to fear?
The new mine leader, who felt that he had performed hard enough, found an opportunity to pull away and walked towards Leader Hu Guan.

Along the way, I was thinking about how to find a good excuse to stay with him to avoid being targeted by ghosts.

approach.

"Chief, I..." He lowered his head, not yet ready to meet the majestic gaze.

Bang!
Suddenly a heavy and tall human body fell in front of him. Wasn't the bone ornament all over his body the leader Hu Guan?
"Eh?"

clang!
Then the new mine leader also fainted.
