Studying Science in the Alternate World

There was a celebration in the tavern, and the matter about Duke's successful production of the Linka basically faded away in the Penrose Mage Tower.

Except for Sanfis, several other arcane masters can make cards.

Not surprising.

Duke also only felt that his status in the Penrose Mage Tower had been improved, and he could get more resources.

But unexpectedly, the next day, he received an invitation from the Union Tower's internal director Suktara, inviting him to visit the Suktara Master Tower.

It was Suktara's secretary who sent the invitation letter: "Your Excellency Duke, my family would like to congratulate you for taking an important step in the field of card making. She asked me to tell you that maybe you can also be in the field of card making Besides, take a look, the Suktara Mage Tower is always open to you."

"This..." Duke was really flattered, "Okay, I will deal with the matter at hand as soon as possible, and go to Suktara Master Tower to visit."

The secretary got a reply and left happily.

Leaving Duke sighing in the office.

Since he was just promoted to an arcanist, Suktala has been wooing him, hoping that he can go to the Suktara Mage Tower to study and study the field of alchemy.

When investigating the forbidden area before, he also met Master Suktarao in person, and was invited again by the other party.

Until now, another invitation.

"Perhaps this is the trouble of a genius, Mage Suktarao, who wants to choose me as her successor."

Suktala is one of the sixteen 3-ring arcane mages in Shenjiao City. He serves as the internal supervisor in the United Tower. Although he is not a member of the Five Towers Conference, he is in charge of the internal affairs of Heijiao River. He is basically equivalent to a deputy mayor. functions.

Therefore, Suktala is considered to be of high position and weight.

At the same time, she is also an alchemist with profound attainments in alchemy.

Alchemy is not turning something that is not gold into gold, but a systematic material conversion, which is a bit like chemistry.

For example, most of the spiritual materials on spirit beasts have to undergo alchemy treatment before they can be transformed into truly useful materials. Or the spirit gold extracted from the ore can also be transformed into other magical items through alchemy.

Alchemy also plays an important role in casting arcane weapons.

Let spirituality and materiality be combined to become the raw materials for the construction of arcane weapons, which can be collected in the spiritual sea and realized in reality.

Many arcane masters would seek the help of alchemists if they wanted to forge arcane weapons. The more advanced the arcane weapons, the more they needed the help of alchemists.

For example, if Duke wants to evolve the Sand Eagle from the first ring to the second ring, he may also need the help of an alchemist.

"Of course I have Xiaoyi. Both Xiaoyi and Yihuan Sand Eagle are built with the underlying logic of this world, so they don't need too many alchemy methods to help." Before Duke was promoted to an arcanist, he could use Xiaoyi's ability , Improved Sand Eagle.

Now that he has become an arcane mage, Xiaoyi's database is constantly expanding, and it should be no problem to improve Sand Eagle and advance Sand Eagle.

"But no matter what, Master Suktarao favors me so much, it's reasonable to pay a visit."

He hasn't booked a date yet to visit the Suktara Mage's Tower.

After returning home from work, I received a party invitation letter sent by Joanna Lynx. The entourage who sent the invitation letter also included Joanna's congratulations to him: "My lord, I praise you for being a genius who studies knowledge, please You must pay her respects, she wants to ask you questions face to face."

"Is the party three days away? Reply to your lord, I will go." Joanna's entourage was dismissed casually.

Duke shook his head and laughed: "Ask for a lesson... Will Joanna also ask for a lesson?"

Joanna is in the same line as her father, Jovis, and has no interest in learning, so she solidifies her spiritual core through elemental decomposition and takes the route of an arcanist.

The study of knowledge is the business of arcane scholars.

In addition to Suktara and Joanna, there are many arcane masters he knows, and they all send him invitations to various parties and family banquets.

However, Duke did not agree any more, and it was not a big deal to learn how to make cards by himself, so there was no need to make too much noise.

Joanna knew him the earliest, and they were both consultants of the Shenjiao City Hotel, and Suktara liked him the most, so it was enough to agree to these two.

After attending the small circle party organized by Joanna, Duke packed up and went to visit the Suktara Master Tower.

Unlike the Penrose Master Tower, which is more than 100 meters high, the Suktarala Master Tower is only 50 meters high.

However, the castle at the bottom of the tower occupies a much larger area, and there is a huge basement, where all dangerous alchemy experiments are carried out.

"I'm very happy that you can come." Suktara greeted Duke personally, and took Duke to visit his mage tower.

The alchemist was gray-haired.

According to the records in "The Spirituality of Heijiaohe Land", she is already 160 years old, which is close to the theoretical age limit of 180 years old for a third-ring arcane mage.

Most of the 3rd-ring arcane mages will not live to be 180 years old, and only a few exceed this age.

Ms. Suktara has no children. She has dedicated her life to spiritual mysteries. She has only had one short marriage. After her husband passed away unfortunately, she has been celibate until now.

However, she has descendants who cultivated her elder brother and younger brother, but she failed to cultivate them. The family has not yet produced a 1-ring arcanist.

So for his successor, Suktara is very urgent.

"Your Excellency Suktara, I'm sorry to bother you."

"You don't need to be so polite here, you know a few of my students, and you can come and play anytime, anywhere in the future."

There are four Arcane Masters working here in the Suktara Mage Tower.

One of the 2-ring arcane mages, Sorel, served as a guide, and the remaining three were 1-ring arcane mages, but they looked quite young.

Duke greeted each other one by one.

The four arcanists all showed enough enthusiasm for Duke's arrival, but Duke was keenly aware of the perfunctory.

Obviously.

This enthusiasm was probably forced by Suktara, not from their hearts.

"I haven't recruited students for more than ten years, and my research in the field of alchemy has also stagnated. Thanks to Sorel and the others, they help me support the operation of the mage tower." old state.

But after all, she is already a hundred and six years old, and her energy is far less than when she was young.

"Your accomplishments in the field of alchemy are enough for latecomers to look up to." Duke praised, he had already found a lot of journal documents before coming.

After browsing through Suktara's related papers in detail, although many papers were incomprehensible, and the knowledge of spiritual arcana involved exceeded his cognition, he still figured out that Suktara's specialization direction is "ring copying spirits". material".

Ring copying spiritual material, in short, is a spiritual material that can copy the ability of "Huan" in the spiritual sea.

For example, the Ring of Projection method that can only be used by a great arcane mage needs a lot of ring copying materials to make a clone.

Suktara's grand goal is to lower the standard of the ring of projection, which can only be cast with a ring of 4 or above, to a ring of 3, or even to a ring of 2, or to a ring of 1, through alchemy.

If successful.

He can definitely get the title of alchemy sage, and even come to the Tower of Offa, and get the seat of the chief sage of Offa Tower.

Her current research is still far from success, and she has stopped research in the past ten years.

"My height is not enough for those who come after me to look up to. There are seven alchemists in this city, and their academic achievements are no less than mine." Suktara said calmly, "Even Sorel, after a few more years of accumulation, he will probably be able to Received the title of scholar."

Duke was a little surprised, and then praised: "You have an academic successor."

"No, although Sorel works in my mage tower, his research direction is the life box. If he really wants to be awarded, he should be awarded the title of life scholar."

"Life box?"

"A very interesting thing that can change your life form." Suktara smiled mysteriously, "If you are interested, you can talk to Sorel."

Change life form?

Duke immediately thought of Bynes, the life scientist in the hut in the woods. The other party studied the soul container, and seemed to have an inexplicable connection with this life box.

By the end of the visit, it was already noon.

Suktarariu Duke had a lunch in the restaurant of the castle. In the afternoon, she still had business to deal with, so she left first.

Duke greeted Suktara's secretary and went straight to the Wonder Room of the Mage Tower.

There are only thirty-six kinds of arcane wonder structures in Penrose's Mage Tower. Suktara's status is not as good as Penrose's, but there are a total of forty-two arcane wonder structures in her Mage Tower-the longer it takes, the more it will become. The more money you have, the more wonders you can build.

Duke checked it carefully and found that there were eleven arcane spells here, which were not found in the Penrose Mage Tower.

"I want to borrow the wonder room here to record some arcane wonders. I wonder if it's feasible?" Duke asked Suktara's secretary.

The secretary responded respectfully: "Your Excellency has explained that you can come to visit the Mage Tower anytime and anywhere, including these wonder rooms."

"Thank you Lord Suktara for me." Duke chose a room of wonders and walked in.

It took about three hours to gain insight into the new wonders in the room of wonders, and simultaneously reproduce this magnificent wonder in the spiritual sea.

So Duke bid farewell, ready to continue tomorrow.

"When I record these eleven arcane wonders, I will have forty-seven arcane wonders. Watch them anytime and anywhere to improve my understanding of the ring!"

...

In the next half month, Duke will either continue to practice making 1-ring spiritual storage cards in the Penrose Mage Tower, or observe the arcane wonders in the Suktala Mage Tower.

The day was very fulfilling.

Every Thursday afternoon, I will accept Penrose’s teachings to accumulate more card-making knowledge; in other times, I will occasionally meet Suktara, who will tell him some interesting stories about alchemy, which will subtly attract Duke’s attention. interest.

"Sir, Lord Suktara is so kind to you." Mu Lali would often sigh with emotion.

Although Penrose has begun to pay attention to Duke, he is still in power in the United Tower after all, and his main energy is on government affairs.

Duke rarely sees each other other than Thursday afternoon.

But Suktara was different. After Duke came out of the room of wonders, he would often receive invitations from her to chat in offices and coffee shops.

This made Duke also feel emotional: "Yes, Ms. Suktara is an elder who is enthusiastic about supporting the younger generation."

"If you come here to study, Master Suktara will definitely teach you everything to help you achieve earlier." Mu Lali complimented, "With your wisdom, sir, you will definitely be able to achieve success in any field !"

"My wisdom... I am not wiser than other arcanists, I just work harder." Duke shook his head.

My little assistant has obviously been melted by Suktara's enthusiasm.

In fact, he himself has not been melted. The enthusiasm of a 3rd-ring arcane mage, even implicated, wants to entrust the entire mage tower, which is difficult for people to resist.

But Suktara's class is not easy to pick up.

Du Ke didn't feel that he and Xiaoyi could easily try the alchemy direction of replicating spiritual materials with the current abilities of himself and Xiaoyi.

Alchemy focuses on material transformation, which requires a lot of material experiments.

The function of Xiaoyi is mainly data calculation, which is not very helpful to material experiments, and the field of card making is more suitable for it.

Mu Lali has a blind admiration for Duke: "I think sir, you are not only working harder than others, but also wiser than others."

"I agree with your judgment, but Xiao Lili, you don't understand many things, so just do your job well, and be cautious in other aspects." Duke said in a gentle tone, beating The meaning is undisguised.

Mu Lali, who was a little erratic, suddenly became solemn and did not dare to speak nonsense.

She is not qualified to decide Duke's choice.

Back at No. 17 of Beverly Manor, Duke changed into home clothes, and went to the breeding room to practice blood together with Xiaodou.

A while ago, Duke fed him a meal of chicken soup, and Xiaodou practiced very hard these days.

He challenged the black-spotted serval every day and suffered repeated defeats, but unknowingly, his physical fitness and spiritual power were growing rapidly.

"Chichi!" After eating the spirit beast meat, Xiaodou couldn't wait to practice.

Duke touched its head, motioning for a rest first.

He hugged the chick that had just come out of the sea, and looked at the cardboard box in the corner together. A fat maggot was sleeping soundly in the cardboard box.

This is Little Red, a descendant of Queen Ant Red Twig.

Compared with the fist at the beginning, it has grown to the size of an adult's arm, and its body is full of spirituality.

However, it is still a larva and needs to pupate before it can mature.

"Xiaohong is a little silly, Duke, it might be a fool." Xiaoji suddenly said without thinking.

"Why do you think so?"

"I've seen a lot of these little bugs in the nest of red branches. They can communicate with me, using the pheromone you mentioned, but Xiaohong can't. It's just a fool. How can I call it, it No response."

Chicks are hatched by ants, so they are naturally able to communicate with ants using pheromones.

"Maybe it's too young to communicate," Duke said.

"Maybe..." Xiaoji was noncommittal, "Anyway, I feel that Xiaohong is useless, a fool who can't speak, really boring."

"Whether it's interesting or not, it's your goddaughter."

"No fun!"

The little chicken yawned and crashed headlong into Duke's sea of ​​air. Now it rarely comes out except to eat some spirit crystals.

The prosperity of the human world is not attractive to it at all, and once the curiosity is over, all that is left is a yawn.

"Chichi!" Xiaodou leaned over again, looking for blood refining.

Duke was too lazy to practice by himself, so he directly ordered Xiaoyi: "Add a new process, "Universal Blood Refining Method"."

"Good master, I have added it for you..." Xiaoyi quickly took over the blood sea and started the unshakable blood refining method every day.

Xiaodou also yawned and fell asleep lying on the table.

But only halfway through the blood training, Duke raised his brows and laughed out loud.

Immediately interrupting the blood refinement method, leaving the sleepy little bag behind, quickly ran up to the large terrace on the third floor: "After four months of hard work, it is finally completed at this moment!"

Immediately there was a thought.

A shiny shield transformed from psionic energy quickly appeared in front of him—a 1-ring arcane-arcane shield!

It was already night, and the arcane shield was like a crystal, quietly suspended in front of Duke, with mysterious lines looming.

It seems that it can be broken by blowing bombs, but it is actually indestructible.

This is the wonder of the arcane shield he just built. After more than four months of continuous building day and night, he can finally cast arcane spells instantly.

"My lord!" Vivian hurried over.

Startled by Duke's laughter, she came to check what was going on, and saw the crystal shield floating in front of Duke as soon as she came.

White light, transparent, about one person tall, can cover Duke's whole body.

"Congratulations, my lord!" Vivian immediately recognized that it was a 1-ring arcane-arcane shield, and then understood instantly, "Successfully built an arcane wonder!"

"answer!"

Duke snapped his fingers, and the arcane shield in front of him immediately dissipated.

But in the next second, another arcane shield appeared on the right side of his body. The speed was so fast that it was hard to distinguish with the naked eye, and it could be called instant.

"Come on, Vivian, attack it!" Duke stood with his hands behind his back.

Vivienne didn't refuse, and drew out the saber she carried with her, her grudge was running, and the "Swift Sword Art" was cast, and it had already slashed heavily on the arcane shield.

bang!

The voice was loud, but there was only a crack on the crystal-like surface of the arcane shield.

"It's very hard, my lord. I can't break it." Vivienne retracted the long sword, feeling a little disappointed. What about the ring 1 knight, who couldn't even break the defense against the arcanist.

Duke scattered the arcane shield, and continued to command: "Come, attack me!"

Vivian took the order: "My lord, be careful."

"Don't worry, I will hide when necessary." Duke smiled lightly.

The "Swift Sword Art" was used again, and the cyan grudge was sprayed on the long sword, and Vivian had already stabbed Duke's heart.

But when the Dou Qi sword light was about to reach Duke, an arcane shield appeared in front of him without Duke taking the initiative to release it.

Bang bang!

The sword light collapsed, the blade rebounded, and the arcane shield cracked a little.

Vivienne didn't stop, but turned around, switched to Duke's back, and slashed at Duke's neck with a sword spewing out a cyan light.

When the sword glow approached his neck, the arcane shield in front of Duke disappeared instantly.

And an arcane shield instantly appeared behind him, blocking Vivienne's sneak attack, except for a little crack, there was no other damage.

"Huh!" Three consecutive attacks failed to break the defense.

Vivian sighed helplessly.

Unless he can shatter the arcane shield with one blow, Duke can instantly cast the arcane shield without limit, blocking all sneak attack space.

The spirituality involved in the arcane spectacle is extraordinary. Without Duke's deliberate guidance, the arcane shield can sense danger anytime and anywhere, and then protect the body instantly. This is the real support for arcanists to rule the vast land of the Seven Towers Federation.

Fighting head-on is an invincible arcane fort.

In the face of a sneak attack, the arcane defense can also be cast instantly, making him invincible.

"The arcane wonder has been completed, and my lord's strength has already made me unforgettable." Vivian put away the long sword, folded her hands and stepped aside.

"Although the arcane shield is good, it also has flaws." Duke was able to face up to his shortcomings. "First of all, the defense is not comprehensive enough. If it is attacked from both sides, it is difficult to defend at the same time. Secondly, if the attack power is too strong, it can directly break the arcane shield... "

Touching his chin, Duke pondered, "If I can directly break through the arcane shield, I'll die with whatever defense I use."

"My lord, there are many spirit beasts that can break the arcane shield, but if you want to break the arcane shield with a sneak attack, there are no spirit beasts that can do it."

"It seems to be true. A spirit beast that injures people by sneak attack cannot break the arcane shield. Those who can break the arcane shield don't need to sneak attack..."

Having said that, Duke laughed again.

The sense of security has been improved again, and now he doesn't have to be afraid even if he goes camping in the wild. No one can easily stab him with a knife.

"Sir, what makes you so happy?" Butler Morris came over.

"You came at the right time, butler Morris, let someone go to the wine cellar to get a bottle of red wine from the previous year, and have a good drink with me tonight."

"As you wish, sir." Morris was just about to turn around.

Duke said again: "Take two bottles of red wine, Vivienne and Mu Lali will also drink some, and take some spirits to share with others."

...

In the dead of night.

After taking a shower, Duke sat cross-legged on the big bed in the bedroom, and only lit a small lamp by the bedside.

Close your eyes and look inside the Linghai. On the first track of the ring system, a ring of sand eagles and arcane shields are slowly moving.

Duke's gaze crossed the first ring track and turned to the spiritual core inside.

Originally, the spirit core was absolutely round, but when he successfully released the 1st ring of arcane spell - Mage's Hand, a bulge condensed on it, and now a bulge condensed on it again.

This bulge represents a major cognition of his spiritual mysteries. When this major cognition continues to increase, it means that the spiritual core is promoted from the 1st ring to the 2nd ring, and eventually these bulges will form every energy line of the ring corner until the second ring is nested.

"All knowledge of the world and the spiritual mysteries will be reflected on the ring!" Duke looked at his ring, feeling a sense of accomplishment.

But soon he suppressed his distracting thoughts and stared at the first track seriously.

"It's time to build a new arcane wonder!"

Without thinking about it, he had already chosen his second arcane wonder—Illusionland a long time ago.

Illusion is the arcane spell with the most complicated spell model among the 1st level arcane spells.

It has no attack power and no defense power. This is a pure auxiliary type of arcane art, which can release an illusion around the caster, thereby changing the surrounding light and shadow layout, deceiving the five senses of the outside world, and even deceiving the spirituality.

"Level 1 illusion card is the favorite arcane card of mercenaries, and it is the best way to camouflage hunting!"

When ambushing spirit beasts, you can use illusions to cover yourself, and when avoiding spirit beasts, you can also use illusions to cover yourself. This is the trump card for life-saving when necessary.

"Ordinary arcane mages don't really like to build fantasy arcane wonders. Gein needs to make room for building defensive arcane and attack arcane, but I am different. I don't need attack arcane... Sand Eagle is my best Attack Arcane."

Below the 3rd ring, any arcane attack is not as good as Sand Eagle's burst fire.

Therefore, Duke didn't need to consider any offensive arcane spells. Mirage, an auxiliary arcane spell with special effects, became his choice.

"Xiaoyi, add a new process and build a fantasy arcane wonder."

"Good master, I have added a new process for you." Xiaoyi quickly responded, "Process 2, fantasy wonders, construction consumes 60% power. The current construction progress is 0.0%, and the time budget is 246 days."

The construction speed of arcane wonders is limited by meditation methods and the spiritual sea itself, so it cannot be faster.

"Well, 246 days, it's a bit long, but I don't care, these are the time I earned." Duke was in a good mood.

In addition, arcane masters need to work hard to build arcane wonders, and it takes one or two years to build an arcane wonder.

The point of life extension is basically used to build arcane wonders.

Duke handed over the arcane wonders to Xiaoyi to build, without consuming his own time, a few years of life extension is a few years of free money-promoting an arcanist can prolong life, a level 1 arcanist can generally live to one hundred and two, and ordinary people have about You can also live seventy or eighty years old.

"call!"

Duke opened his eyes, glanced at the starry sky outside the window, and silently sighed: "It's getting stronger again!"
