Studying Science in the Alternate World

Squeak, squeak.

The wooden stairs have been in disrepair for a long time, and they will make a harsh friction sound when stepping on them.

Fortunately, there are windows in the attic, so light can shine in, otherwise Duke would not dare to mess around in the dark attic.

When you go up to the attic, the first thing you see is a not-so-small space.

There is a large test bench in the middle, with various experimental tools on it, and a chair is placed near the pillar, and the chair is facing the zenith window of the attic.

Duke walked to the edge of the chair, looked up, and was startled again.

A human skeleton lay impressively on it.

The flesh and blood had long been rotten and weathered, leaving only a layer of tattered clothes covering the bones, and the cocoons and pupae of maggots scattered all over the place could be vaguely seen around.

"Couldn't this be the arcanist who studies human experiments?" Duke calmed down.

The completely weathered remains of the corpse are not as scary as imagined.

He carefully avoided the chair and looked at the test bench in the middle. There were many corroded and rusted instruments on this test bench, as well as some rusty tools and test tubes.

Among them was a table that looked like a dissecting table.

There are straps for binding in several positions, just enough to fix the person's neck, hands, feet and waist.

"It's a good scene for a horror movie."

Duke was a little nervous, but fortunately, he still had a small pocket on his shoulders, which gave him a lot of confidence as a contract partner.

Instead of touching the tools on the table, he saw an open notebook.

Reach out and flip to the cover.

The cover is a few words written by hand: "Bynes Experimental Notes-9..."

"Bynes?"

"Experiment Note 9?"

Duke narrowed his eyes: "This arcane mage is called Baines? I have a chance to go to the Law Society to check the records to see if there is any record of this Baines... This notebook is probably the first experiment he did. Nine notebooks."

On the page that was opened before, the handwriting seemed to have been soaked, and it was completely unclear.

But the front part of this notebook can still be read normally.

Especially the first page of the notebook, with a brief preface written by Bynes himself.

"The experiment on the soul container has not made much progress. My time is running out, and spirituality is already calling me in my ears. But I don't want to stop my experiment. I was removed from the Faling Tower, and even the city of Black Snake Square If you dare to live, you have to hide in the wilderness."

"Now my only sustenance is in the soul container experiment."

"Perhaps soon, I will make a great discovery. From then on, all those who persecute me will cry and apologize to me, and the group of people who preside over the Faling Pagoda will also prostrate at my feet. Welcome I will return to the Faling Tower!"

"No!"

"Because of my great discovery, I will rule in Offata, become the chief life sage of Offata, and even be selected into the Hall of Valor!"

"—Life Scholar, 1st Ring Arcane Mage-Bynes, May 26, 4382 in the Storm Calendar."

The preface is short, but it also reveals a lot of information.

"This Baines, who was expelled from the Faling Pagoda, originally hid here to study the soul container. No wonder he wanted to experiment with people..." Duke thought, "I don't know what kind of experiment can make him a 1 ring life scholar, promoted to chief life sage."

Arcane Master is a collective term.

An arcanist who likes to fight is called an arcanist; an arcanist who likes to study is called an arcanist.

The spiritual sea is all-encompassing. Every arcane scholar has his own research direction. If he has certain attainments in this research direction and is recognized by most of his peers, he can get the real scholar title awarded by Alpha Tower.

Kind of like being awarded a professor.

For example, arcane masters who have made achievements in the field of arcane arts will be awarded the title of elemental scholar; arcane masters who have made achievements in the field of pharmacy will be awarded the title of pharmacy scholar; arcane masters who have made achievements in the field of life will naturally be awarded the title of life scholar .

Bynes calls himself a life scholar, and obviously has made some achievements in the field of life.

As for Offata's promotion to Chief Life Sage.

It's like being named an academician.

Offa Tower is the head of the seven towers of the Seven Towers Federation. Its functions are roughly similar to the Academy of Sciences, but its power is far greater than that of the Academy of Sciences.

The title of a scholar is similar to that of a university professor, the title of a sage is similar to that of a young scholar or a Changjiang scholar, and the title of a chief sage is similar to that of an academician. It's just that Arcane Masters are the ruling class, and scholars, sages, and chief sages are basically the top class of the Seven Towers Federation.

Duke turned over the preface and looked at the experiment content recorded in the notebook.

I found that I know all the characters, but I don't know some hand-painted pictures, especially the structures of various mysterious spell models.

"It's too esoteric. I can't understand the content of the research of the 1st ring arcane mage!"

He was about to turn the page back.

Suddenly there was a "beep" sound from the corner.

In an instant, he and Xiaodou reacted together, Xiaodou was covered in hair, and Duke held the Sand Eagle pistol in both hands, aiming at the corner where the sound came from.

The corner was a bit dim, and a dim green light spot was flickering.

"What!" Duke whispered.

The green light is still flashing, and it doesn't seem to be a living thing.

He was vigilant for a while, and then he poked forward. When he got closer, he realized that there was a spider-like puppet in the corner of the attic.

The puppet is not big, and its body is equivalent to a tricycle.

"Puppet?" Duke was overjoyed.

There is no doubt that this is a puppet left by Bynes' life scholar. Now that Bynes has turned into bones and has no heir, this puppet is in his pocket.

"Looking at this state, this puppet has no spiritual power, right?" Duke poked the puppet with his long sword.

The puppet is made of spirit gold, and the long sword pokes on it to make a crisp sound. At the same time, the green light spots like eyeballs on the puppet's body gradually become dim, and soon completely extinguished. Obviously, the last trace of spiritual energy Also exhausted.

Duke dragged the puppet out of the corner.

Wipe off the dust on it.

"Xiao Yi, have you figured out what type of puppet this is?" Duke asked.

This puppet looks like a spider, but it is not very similar to the spider puppet that often appears on construction sites on the market.

The body is a disc, with six mechanical legs protruding out in equal proportions around it.

The head and tail cannot be seen, and the place where the green light flashed before is a conical protrusion on the top of the body, which is a bit like a camera.

Xiaoyi quickly responded: "There is no information about this kind of puppet in the database, and it may not be a civilian puppet."

Basically, the puppets that can be provided in the book are civilian puppets launched by the Boxue Tower.

Arcane masters will build their own puppets, or ask puppet scholars to tailor them. There is no fixed type of such puppets.

"All right."

Duke searched carefully, and soon found a hidden card machine interface on the side of the puppet's disc body.

The card machine interface is the card slot for inserting the spirit card.

Whether it's a spirit weapon or a puppet, it needs a spirit card as a driving force.

After fumbling around, he successfully opened the card slot and pulled out an exquisite spirit card, which was far thicker than ordinary spirit cards.

In the hand, it is like a gorgeous mobile phone.

"this!"

Duke was startled: "This should be a spirit storage card with a ring 3, it's the first time I've seen a spirit storage card with a ring 3 level!"
