Studying Science in the Alternate World

Chapter 201: Outstanding Scientist Invention Award

  Chapter 201 Outstanding Erudite Invention Award

  Duke didn't know how many shots he fired before the running Thunderbeast died, but he fired three sets of armor-piercing bullets from the magazine.

  A pair of magazines contained twelve rounds of armor-piercing rounds.

   In other words, it is conservatively estimated that at least 30 armor-piercing bullets are needed to kill a 4-ring spirit beast. Of course, it must be ensured that the spirit beast does not have defensive arcane spells, or is not wearing armor, so as to ensure that every armor-piercing bullet can enter the soul.

  Duke, who possesses ultra-long-distance sniper ability, is most afraid of the running thunder beast, a spirit beast with sparks and lightning all the way.

   It is completely possible to snipe the running thunder beast with armor-piercing bullets outside the attack range.

  But if it is replaced by a spirit beast with a level 3 or above that wears armor and even solidifies defensive arcane magic, armor-piercing bullets will not work well.

   In other words, no bullets work well.

  After all, the level of the Sand Eagle pistol itself is only level 1. Concentrating its power on one point is really domineering, but no matter how domineering it is, there is a limit. The defense below the 3rd ring can basically break the surface, while the defense above the 3rd ring is powerless.

   "Rampaging Thunder Beast is strong and weak in attack, and I am strong in attack and weak in defense, but my attack range is farther!" Standing in front of the corpse of the Running Thunder Beast, Duke was full of pride.

  The evolution from ring 3 to ring 4 is a qualitative change.

  But Duke still went up and down, completing a gorgeous hunting operation.

   The mercenaries have already started to deal with the corpse of the runaway Thunder Beast. No matter who it is, when they walk up to Duke, they will bend down and respectfully express their humility to Duke. They have been completely convinced by Duke.

   Being able to hunt and kill 4-ring spirit beasts is enough to explain everything.

   "An arcane mage is omnipotent, and Lord Duke will definitely become a great arcane mage!" Captain Zina secretly watched Duke's back while directing the team.

   Right now.

  She only felt that finding and cooperating with Duke was definitely the most important decision in her life.

  A decision enough to change fate.

   "I made the right choice, but it's not enough. If I want to get more, I have to perform better in front of Lord Duke!"

   "I can not express much content, there is one and only one broken sword!"

   "So, I must use Lord Duke's power to quickly grow Broken Sword, making Broken Sword the sharpest sword in Lord Duke's hands!"

   Putting away distracting thoughts, Zina yelled loudly, directing the team to do things.

  The mercenaries took care of the running thunder beast's body, and scraped off the blood on the ground along with the ground. Zina arranged a team to transport the running thunder beast back and sent it to Snakehead Town for processing, while the rest continued to perform the task of eliminating evil spirits.

   "I'll take half of the proceeds from this spirit beast, and share the rest with everyone." Duke replied when Zina asked how to deal with the spirit beast.

  So Zina went to the heads of each mercenary regiment one by one, and loudly informed Duke of the arrangement: "Lord Duke is generous, and is willing to share half of the profits from running Thunder Beasts with everyone! All we need is for everyone to work hard!"

   "Thank you for your generosity, how dare we do things carelessly!"

   "This is your good luck. You can share half of the income of a 4-ring spirit beast without a knife or a shot... In short, serving the adults is indispensable to your benefits!"

  Benefited from Duke's single-player feat of quickly killing the running Thunder Beast, as well as the generous shot that shared half of the proceeds.

  The morale of the whole team was high, and they didn't complain of suffering or tiredness. The progress of the task increased rapidly, and the task was completed three days earlier than the agreed time.

  So with three days left, Duke dismissed the mercenary regiment.

  Just carrying a broken sword, wandering around in the forest, looking for spirit beasts to hunt, earn a little extra money, and make your pockets bigger.

   "Chi Chi!"

   Xiaodou has also become red-eyed these days.

  In order to hone Xiaodou, Duke often let Xiaodou participate in the fight, especially when encountering 0-ring spirit beasts, Xiaodou basically went up to hunt and kill them.

   Sometimes when encountering a 1-ring spirit beast, Xiaodou will also let Xiaodou go up to it.

  In this high-pressure state, the red knight contract mark on Xiaodou's forehead has gradually condensed into a complete outline.

   "My lord, Xiaodou has reached the critical line of advancement." Vivienne said.

   "That's why the forest is the best training ground for spirit beasts. Spirit beasts raised in cities can't grow without going through **** fights." Duke's eyes sparkled, "Vivienne, I think I've found some experience in cultivating them."

   "What do you mean, my lord?" Vivienne was puzzled.

   "Fighting in the forest is the best way for contracted spirit beasts to digest nutrition. Your Mimi and my Xiaodou want them to evolve into phantom beasts. I'm afraid it's not enough to sweat and train every day. You have to bring them to see blood."

  Duke remembered that Muhans Black Snake said before that the reason why his snake could evolve into a phantom beast was that it mutated and evolved into a phantom beast after experiencing a life-and-death calamity.

  So he continued: "Letting contracted spirit beasts walk on the verge of life and death is probably the best way to stimulate evolution."

  Vivian frowned: "Will the death rate be too high?"

   "So this is a paradox. If you want a contract partner to evolve, you have to push it to the death, but pushing it to the death will often really drive the partner to death..."

  Duke felt like he had spoken nonsense.

  Vivian felt the same way: "The reason why there are so few Phantom Beast Knights is that they are not sure about these two tendencies. I also don't want to put Mimi in a dangerous situation, so I can only choose to sweat more in normal times."

   "This is the most stupid method, but also the most effective method... Vivienne, bring the small bag with you during training in the future."

   "Yes, my lord."

  Duke has no time to train himself, so Xiaodou can only train with others.

  This made him feel a little wistful and thought: "It's a pity that there are no natural treasures in this world. One bite can increase your cultivation so much, or you can directly evolve into a phantom beast or a sub-dragon... If there is, I will definitely get one for Xiaodou."

  Spirituality benefits all creatures and is also the source of all natural treasures.

  When a plant is favored by spirituality, it will be promoted to a spiritual plant instead of growing into a natural treasure—of course, a spiritual plant is also a natural treasure.

  Three days passed with a snap of the fingers.

   After handing in the task of cleaning up area 354, Duke took the airship Huihuan, left Cuihai Valley, and returned to Shenjiao City.

   "I heard that you hunted a 4-ring spirit beast alone?" Assistant Vikas came over and asked with a red wine glass.

  In terms of academic research and personal practice, Vikas has given up and can be mixed. Now he is keen on inquiring about news and communicating with people.

   "Relying on the predecessor's legacy, he left me a good arcane weapon." Duke replied.

  He can now use a ring of sand eagles openly and aboveboard. Most arcane mages have their own arcane weapons. After all, there are thousands of paths to spiritual mysteries.

  Vikas smiled: "It seems that the senior left you a powerful arcane weapon, but you have to think about it, the significance of the arcane weapon to yourself...Usually, using the arcane weapon as a weapon is not the best choice."

   "I understand, I will handle this arcane properly." Duke smiled perfunctorily.

  Arcanists can rely on casting spells to master powerful arcane arts, so it would be a waste to use arcane weapons as weapons.

   Unless this kind of arcane weapon has the power to destroy the world, such as Keyston Rage's arcane weapon, it is a red sun-shaped ball that can release an attack comparable to a nuclear bomb.

  As the strongest arcane mage in Shenjiao City, Kiston really needed a powerful arcane weapon to establish his unbreakable dominance.

   Most arcane mages can stand up with arcane skills alone.

  So in the selection of arcane weapons, they tend to be auxiliary in nature, which can help arcanists to better study spiritual arcana, or better improve their skills.

  Duke had heard from Vikas before that the joint card shop had trained some 1st-ring arcane mages. In order to focus on card making skills, each of them cast an arcane weapon called "the spirit of the card", which could instantly complete the spell model drawing on the spirit card.

  The principle of the card spirit is unknown, but the mass production of cards is absolutely inseparable from the card spirit.

   Possessing the spiritual weapon of the card and proficient in the technique of spiritual resonance memory, such an arcanist is basically equivalent to a spiritual card printer.

   Countless low-level spirit cards can be printed every day to supply the needs of the entire Seven Towers Federation.

  Perhaps the life of such an arcanist is like a machine, but the accumulation of massive wealth can benefit the entire family.

  Vikas thought that Duke understood his good intentions, and said with relief: "We arcane mages are destined to rule the world not only because of our combat power, but also because of our exploration of spiritual arcana. We are closer to the truth than anyone else."

   Turning around and pausing for a few seconds, Vikas continued: "The arcane weapon is a prop that assists us in witnessing the truth. If you make good use of it, you will go further in the field of spiritual arcana."

"I understand."

   "You are the most mature and intelligent young arcanist I have ever met. I am very optimistic about you, really."

   "Actually, I am very optimistic about myself."

   "Haha, your self-confidence finally made me feel that I was chatting with a seventeen-year-old young man." Vikas sighed and fell into nostalgia, "When I was young, I was as high-spirited as you..."

   "But you are lifeless now." Leadman's assistant came over at some point, and slammed Vikas hard.

  Vikas just wanted to refute.

  Leedman no longer paid attention to him, but said to Duke: "I found a special snow blowing tree during the mission. Aren't you cultivating a normal spiritual planting snow blowing tree? Maybe this snow blowing tree will help you."

   "Thank you, I don't know what's so special about this Snowblower?" Duke asked.

   "It bears seeds. Every red worm tentacles are its flowers. The red worm tentacles of this Blowing Snow Column have withered and contain seeds. But the seeds are not yet ripe. I dug them back together with the clods of soil and sealed them in a glass box."

   "That's great. After I get off the airship, I'll send someone over to take over."

  The survival rate of Fuxuezhu bred on Duke-James Farm is pitifully low, and even if there are survivors, they are not very healthy.

  If it continues, the cultivation plan will definitely fail.

  But with seeds, it is different. The Fuxuezhu cultivated through seeds may have a new resistance and can reproduce smoothly.

   Waiting for the airship to land at the Penrose Mage Tower, Duke also successfully took over a two-meter-high Snowblower with thick adult thighs. I don't know where Leadman brought such a large glass box, which can put the blowing snow pole and the root soil clod together.

   "Leadman's guidance, thank you very much."

   "It's nothing." Leadman's tone was always cold, "Cultivating Fuxuezhu earlier will provide me with more choices of spiritual materials."

   "I will work hard to cultivate it." Duke replied.

  Leadman's research direction is focused on the spiritual material link of making spirit cards. He plans to start with improving the spirit cards to improve the card making process.

  If you succeed, you should be able to obtain the title of Card Making Scholar.

  Bringing the snow-blowing tree sealed in a glass box, Duke quickly rushed to the farm. In the next few days, he ran to the farm every day to personally cast spells on the snow-blowing tree to help it adapt to an environment free of evil spirits and mature as soon as possible.

  The 2nd-ring wizard casts the breathing method, and Duke is still in harmony with the chick when casting the spell. The effect of this breathing resonance successfully pulls Chuuxuezhu back from the edge of apoptosis.

   "James, you arrange people to cast spells on it 24 hours a day to prevent it from dying. We only need to wait until these seeds are mature, and we can use the seeds to breed a new product that is more suitable for the environment." Duke ordered.

  James responded immediately: "I understand, my lord, I will arrange the manpower... I don't know why, I feel that I am involved in a big event, and I have a special sense of mission in my heart."

   "Your feeling is correct. If you really cultivate Fuxuezhu well, you can lower the price of spiritual materials, which will indeed benefit the whole people. However, if you want to cultivate a sufficiently good variety, it will definitely not be completed in a few years. You have to make long-term preparations."

   "I will obey your orders, my lord." James lowered his posture and hugged Duke's thick leg tightly.

  Back to the Penrose Mage Tower, the reward for clearing the evil spirits of Cuihai Valley has also been issued.

  All provided by Bernoulli Mage Tower.

   "Sir, the task reward is 290 gold dragons, the travel subsidy is 50 gold dragons, the lost work fee is 35 gold dragons...the total of miscellaneous expenses is 412 gold dragons." Mu Lali took the reward back, and calculated it to Duke one by one.

   "It's not bad." Duke sipped his tea comfortably, "This time, Bernoulli's mage's tower really cut a piece of meat."

  He can get 412 gold dragon rewards for a 1-ring arcane mage, and the remuneration for a 2-ring arcane mage and a 3-ring arcane mage is obviously higher.

  Even great arcane mages such as Keyston Raging Wave also participated in the mission, which probably cannot be dismissed with a golden dragon.

  Mulali followed suit with a smile, and reported another bill to Duke: "Sir, the spirit beasts you hunted and killed during the mission have basically been dealt with. Among them, the 4-ring spirit beast, the Running Thunder Beast, was bought by the Black Snake Family, and sold for 1,200 gold dragons."

   "1200 Golden Dragon? Xiao Lili, the price is a bit high." Duke was surprised.

   "According to the current market price, there is a little overflow, but the running thunder beast was originally going to be sent to the auction house. The Black Snake family didn't want to get the proceeds from the auction, so they had to buy it at a premium." Even though she is also a member of the Black Snake family, Mu Lali has long regarded herself as a member of Duke.

  She explained with a smile: "Chief Qi Na felt that the price was right, so he gave up the auction and sold it directly to the Black Snake Family."

   "Is there any use for the Black Snake family to run away from Thunder Beast?"

   "Running Thunder Beast is the main material for making Thundering Potion. Thundering Potion can help arcanists comprehend the elements of the thunder system and increase their understanding of spiritual arcana." Mu Lali thought for a while and said, "Second Grandpa may want to help Uncle Mudis advance."

  Mudes Black Snake is the 1st-level Arcane Mage of the Black Snake Family. He is expected to be promoted to the 2nd Level. He is the next high priest to be cultivated by the Black Snake Family.

  But Duke doesn't care, who is in power in the Black Snake family, he is interested in other points: "Is the thunder potion..."

  The field of pharmacy is an important research direction for arcanists.

  Most of the monks of the Three Seas basically rely on taking drugs to open them, and what they take are medicines, qi-increasing medicines, blood-boiling medicines and awakening medicines.

  Different from the medicine that patients take when they are sick, only arcane masters can make medicine.

  In another way, different spiritual materials are mixed together to build a complete spell model at the spiritual level.

  Thunderbolt potion is also a kind of potion, but it is quite a high-end potion— potion is not divided into levels, it is to build a complete ring to preserve the spirituality of spiritual raw materials, so theoretically all potions are only level 1.

  The difference is that some potions have weak spirituality, while others have strong spirituality. The higher the high-end potion, the stronger the spirituality and effect.

  The thunder potion can make the arcanist feel the profound meaning of the thunder element, thereby increasing the understanding of the spiritual arcane, helping the arcanist to improve his cultivation and speed up his advancement. There are many similar potions, such as iceberg potion, hurricane potion, explosive potion and so on.

  But Duke has never considered, vassal potion to help him comprehend spiritual mysteries.

  Only an arcane mage who has exhausted his potential will consider this method, through external interference, to affect his own cognition of spiritual arcana.

  Successful advancement by luck will leave huge hidden dangers, and there is no possibility of further advancement.

   "So, Mudis Black Snake has lost his pursuit of the 3rd ring, has he stopped at the 2nd ring for the rest of his life?" Duke sighed slightly.

  He still remembers the first arcane mage he saw in his life, this Mudis Black Snake, in the public class of the Law Spirit Society.

  Many spiritual apprentices at that time regarded Mudis as an idol, thinking that he was the most outstanding young arcanist of the Black Snake family, with unlimited potential and broad prospects.

   Unexpectedly, the current Mudis would even rely on drugs to advance to the 2nd ring.

   "Uncle Mudis never seems to have pursued the 3rd ring." Mu Lali tilted her nose and said, "When I worshiped the ancestors, I heard the second grandpa sighed before, saying that the family can't even get the 2nd ring arcanist, and he named Uncle Mudisi."

   "How did he reply?"

   "Uncle Moody's seemed very ashamed. He said he would work hard, but he said it very quietly, without any confidence."

  Duke shook his head: "Okay."

  He has always aimed at the Nine-ring Arcane Master. After all, the existence of Nine-ring Xiaoyi gives him a clear positioning for the future.

  But ignoring other Arcane Masters, you may not even dare to expect a 2nd ring.

  Improving the cognition of spiritual mysteries can increase the change of spiritual core and evolve to a higher level. But it doesn't mean that seeing more of the world can improve the understanding of spiritual mysteries, which involves an understanding and insight into the underlying rules.

  Looking at the phenomenon a thousand times or ten thousand times, if you can't understand the root cause, your understanding of spiritual mysteries will not increase by half.

   "Fortunately, I have Xiaoyi, I can't understand, Xiaoyi helps me understand..." Duke thought.

  Mulali returned to the topic: "The income of the spirit beast, the 1200 gold dragons of the 4th ring running Thunder Beast, sir, you allocated 600 gold dragons to go out... So, the income from this mission, a total of 861 gold dragons."

   The reward for the task itself is 412 gold dragons, and the extra money is 861 gold dragons.

   It is equivalent to saying that Duke has earned 1273 gold dragons in just over a week, which is almost equal to his annual fee as a consultant for the Shenjiao City Hotel.

certainly.

   This kind of good thing doesn't happen often, tasks don't happen often, and it's hard to hunt 4-ring spirit beasts.

   Before the two could settle the accounts, there was a knock on the office door. Mu Lali got up and went to open the door, only to find that the assistant Vikas had brought someone over.

   "Duke, these two are visitors from the Learning Tower." Vikas led them in, then retreated to the side sofa and sat down.

  Two guests, the head of whom was wearing the robe of an arcane mage: "Your Excellency Duke, I am the director of the Honor Department of the Learning Tower, the 1st ring arcanist Capello Flamingo, this is my deputy Drotes."

   "Hello, Mr. Capello."

  After exchanging pleasantries, Capello Flamingo didn't talk much.

   It was mainly the deputy Drotes who spoke: "Your Excellency Duke, the portable lamp series lamps you invented have produced very good reviews in the market. After unanimous discussions at the high-level meeting of my Bo Xue Tower, it is determined that it has a positive and positive impact on improving people's livelihood and benefiting the society."

   Duke keeps smiling.

  Dross continued: "Therefore, the Erudite Tower will reward you with the Outstanding Erudite Invention Award. Please go to the Erudite Tower in three days to accept the award."

   "It's an honor to be affirmed by the Tower of Learning. Three days later, right, I will definitely go to accept the award." Duke readily accepted.

  Capello smiled and stretched out his hand, holding Duke tightly: "Your Excellency Duke is really young and promising. He invented such an outstanding spiritual weapon at such a young age. It can be seen that he is extremely talented in natural history, which is really admirable."

   "Where it is, it's just luck."

   "It's not just luck. I use the portable lamp myself. It's really convenient. Now the Giant of Light's brand is well-known... Anyway, three days later, I'll be waiting for His Excellency Duke's arrival at the Tower of Knowledge."

   After touting each other for a while, with the help of Duke and Vikas, Capello was sent out of the Penrose Mage Tower.

   Wait until Capello and the two leave.

  Director Vikas patted Duke on the shoulder and said: "I didn't expect you to take a step ahead in the field of erudition. Maybe it won't be long before I have to call you Duke erudite."

   "Haha, you're joking." Duke waved his hand, "I just invented a lamp, or it was improved from the spirit wind lamp and car lamp, so I can't be called a polymath."

   "It's worth it." Vikas is very serious, "I even think that as the Giant of Light sells more and more portable lamps, and its influence is growing, your title of polymath will be worn on your head within three years."

  Duke was stunned: "Do you think that with a portable lamp, I can get the title of polymath?"

  He doesn’t think the portable lamp is a great invention, nor is it a product that lights up a new era like the invention of the electric light.

   On Earth, everyone knows that Edison invented (and actually improved) the electric light.

   But who knows who invented the flashlight.

  Director Vikas nodded affirmatively and said: "Yes, the portable lamp is undoubtedly a great learned thing, Duke, don't underestimate it, you will be recorded in the history of natural history of the Seven Towers Federation because of it."

   "Well, hearing what you said, I feel that the title of polymath is indeed waving to me."

   "Steady!" Vikas laughed, "Your title of polymath is secure. If such an invention can't get the title of polymath, then polymath is too precious... Just wait, Shenjiao City Erudition Tower will apply for you soon."

  The title of scholar needs to be evaluated by the highest learned tower in the Holy City of Arcane.

  So it is necessary to report to the local erudition tower layer by layer, and finally hand it over to the erudite sages of the highest erudite tower to vote for approval.

   Three days later.

  Boxue Tower in Shenjiao City.

  Duke received the "Heijiaohedi Outstanding Knowledgeable Invention Award" certificate from the chief director Erwin with a happy face.

  The certificate is very ordinary, but the honor is heavy.

   "Congratulations, Duke, your young face has shown me the future of natural history. I hope you will continue to work hard in the field of natural history and invent more inventions that are beneficial to social development." Erwin faced the reporter with a smile.

  Reporters held slide cards and recorded this scene on the slide cards.

  There has been no major event in Heijiaohe for the past two days, and the image of Duke shaking hands with Irwin is enough to appear on the headlines of tomorrow's newspaper.

   "Thank you, thank you Boxue Tower for your affirmation of me, thank you sir for your love for me, I will continue to serve the people's livelihood as always, not forgetting my original intention." Holding the certificate, Duke also faced the reporter, showing the most handsome smile.

   Looking for tickets~
