  Chapter 208 One Ring Great Knight

  Patter!

  The teacup was slammed onto the floor by Clarinda, smashing into shards of glass.

   "It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous!" Kleinda roared angrily, "How could Duke invent the patina technology!"

  Aziguli didn’t even look at the glass shards on the floor, but said indifferently: “I have investigated, and this technology has changed hands several times, but the original source is Old Sam, the owner of Little Sam’s repair card shop, and Duke was working in Little Sam’s repair card shop at the beginning.”

   "Ahem!" Clarinda blushed, "So what, who knows if it was invented by old Sam or Duke!"

   "In any case, after this matter spreads, it will have a negative impact on Runwanjia."

   "Who dares to make irresponsible remarks about the patent I bought with money!"

   "In short." Azigul looked at the man in front of him and sighed, "Kleinda, why don't you take a step back and forget it. Relying on the spiritual light is not enough to prevent Duke from getting the title of polymath. Let's slowly buy patents later."

   "No, I can't swallow this breath. Now the situation has been reversed by Runwanjia. I went out this time and talked about a lot of cooperation, which is enough to ensure that the aura lamp will defeat the portable lamp in the market. Then you and I will use our strength to the Erudite Tower of Runwu City. Dare the Erudite Tower to take the risk and give the title of Erudite to Duke?"

   "Infringement is infringement, Kleinda, you need to see the reality!" Aziguli reached out and knocked on the table, "The Arcane Master of the Erudition Tower in Runwu City will not take the risk of violating our original intention and help us cover up, in fact..."

   "What actually?" Clarinda asked.

   "In fact, my twisted ring has already had a slight reaction, and I can't hold on for too long. The infringement case must be ended as soon as possible." Azigul said.

   "How could this be? It's just delaying the trial. How could your twisted ring react?"

  The twisted ring is the place where the arcanist hides his heart, guards his practice, anchors his heart, and reduces the risk of becoming a fallen demon.

   "Because my heart tells me that the aura lamp is copied from the portable lamp. This is a fact that I cannot deny." Aziguli said coldly, "Every erudite Taoist master must establish a erudite heart. Once shaken, the result will be terrible."

   "Hoohoo..." Kleinda panted heavily, and said after a long time, "I see, even though you have passed the verdict, Runwanjia's actions will never stop. Even if you pay for the infringement, I will fight this commercial competition!"

   "Whatever you want." Aziguli said coldly.

   Immediately got up to leave, when she opened the door, Clarinda suddenly shouted: "Wait a minute."

  Azigul turned around and looked at Kleinda calmly.

  Clarinda's painful expression flashed across his face, and then he suppressed his emotions and said: "You know, I don't want people to see a joke, since my spiritual core was broken... In any case, if I lose, I will lose completely, not halfway back!"

   Aziguli's heart softened, and she said softly, "Oh, why bother."

   "It is very necessary!" Kleinda said seriously, "Besides, it is not yet known who will die, and what about the infringement of the aura lamp. As long as the portable lamp can be defeated and the giant of light can be extinguished, everything will return to the way it should be. The laughter at this time is nothing more than a little noise."

   "As you wish." Aziguli pushed the door open.

   After Azigul left for a long time, Kleinda called his assistant to clean up the broken glass in the office.

   Then they sent people to call the general manager and sales director of Runwanjia Spirit Tool Factory to hold a meeting in the office, continue to expand the production scale, continue to sell at a loss, and carry out comprehensive promotional activities in cities and market towns in the eight major regions.

  From September to October, and from October to December.

  Run Wanjia and the Giant of Light are like two big men fighting for their lives. They burned an unknown number of golden dragons, and spread the two series of products, the portable lamp and the aura lamp, to every corner of the wind breath field.

  Ordinary families, almost everyone has one.

   "25 copper dragons for a portable lamp, 24 copper dragons for an aura lamp!" The mercenary far away in Cuihai Valley held a lamp in one hand, "Hey, these two companies are competing, and the hand lamps are getting cheaper and cheaper. I don't know what to think."

   "Whatever it thinks, as long as I can take advantage of it." Another mercenary laughed.

   "The hand lamp is very useful, but the brightness is not good enough, it can't illuminate very far, and the large searchlight is not convenient to carry."

   "Come on, it's much better than before with a spiritual wind lamp that can't be illuminated one meter away, so you can be content."

   "These two companies have only cut prices, but they don't know how to put more effort into their products."

   "Speaking of which, the portable lamp was invented by the Giant of Light Company, and Runwanjia is a big company, invading other people's patents."

   "Is the lawsuit settled?"

   "Sentence, just a while ago, Runwanjia will have to compensate the giant of light for one or two copper dragon patent infringement fees for every aura lamp sold in the future." The mercenary had read the newspaper before, and there was news about this.

   "Then why is Runwanjia still selling spiritual lamps? Isn't this sending money to the Giant of Light?"

   "Don't be afraid of a great cause. There is a master Arcane Master behind him. There is a lot of money, but the patent fee is not paid. It is said that it will be delayed. In short, the Giant of Light will be dragged to death."

   "It's really dark."

   "What do you think, the methods of master arcane masters are ruthless!"

   "That's not right, there is an arcane master behind the Runwan family, isn't there an arcane master behind the giant of light?"

   "Masters are also divided into grades. Can the 3rd ring be the same as the 1st ring? I don't even think about it."

   "It's alright, let's talk less about night operations. Tonight, our regiment will catch more ferrets for sale." The head of the mercenary regiment scolded, "Recently, the situation in Cuihai Valley is not right, and it feels like a new wave of insects is about to break out. In short, after completing this mission, we will retreat to Snakeshou Town to rest for a while."

   "Leader, what do you think the Bernoulli family is doing? They said they wanted to hire someone to deal with Yalong. It has been half a year, and nothing has happened."

   "Don't worry about the things above." The leader scolded, "Don't worry about when it hunts the dragon, I wish the pioneering war lasted for a few more years, and we can earn a few more years, retire when we earn enough, go home and find a quiet community to be a security guard!"

   "I don't want to be a security guard. I plan to stay in Cuihai Valley and join the Bernoulli family as a vassal knight."

   "The Bernoulli family only needs Gu knights, one-eyed Bob, and you will have to contract a bug when the time comes."

   "What's wrong with contracting a worm? My warthog king is already old, and he has no potential to advance to a 1-ring spirit beast in this life. It's better to contract a worm."

  Suddenly.

   A mercenary in front issued a notice: "Ferret has been found, hurry up, focus on the lighting, blind it, fix it!"

   I don’t know how many lamps, the light from the lamps merged together, illuminating the thorn bushes ahead. Then a great knight mercenary, tore through the thorn bushes, and grabbed a spirit beast that was slightly bigger than a hound, which was standing still.

   "Hey!" The big knight picked up the ear of the spirit beast, quickly took the chain handed over by others, and tied the spirit beast tightly, "It's really a **** god, catch ferrets with a hand lamp, and catch them accurately. These ferrets don't know how to run."

   "Ferrets are only active at night, and are extremely sensitive to light. If they are illuminated in the eyes, they will be directly blinded." A mercenary accompanying the team explained.

   "There was no chance to catch ferrets so quickly before, thanks to the portable lamp!"

   "If you want me to say, I have to thank the Giant of Light, and that Lord Duke who invented the portable lamp."

   "Thanks to Lord Duke." The team leader took the ferret with a smile and stuffed it into a bag. "Let's go, continue to look for the next one. Lord Duke favors us. Let's catch more ferrets. Master, you will win this business war."

  …

  Autumn goes and winter comes.

  The lighting war is in full swing, but Shenjiao City has entered the cold winter season, and the first snow has already fallen.

  On the playground of Suktara Castle, Duke is riding a tall spirit horse.

  A person silently practiced the "Imperial Dragon Cavalry Lance" on the horse, charging, sprinting, and constantly practicing various fighting skills with the spear.

   On his shoulder, there is a big fluffy squirrel.

   This squirrel is obviously the long-haired mongoose-Xiaodou. Xiaodou and Duke trained together. The aura of one person and one beast has been swayed by the sea of ​​blood, and the two have become one.

at this time.

  You can see a clear and bright red mark on Xiaodou's forehead, which represents the knight's contract.

  The ring-shaped imprint is very complicated, with twists and turns, but eventually connects into a line.

   This is a closed loop.

   "Drink!" Duke raised the knight's spear in his hand, and with the spear flying, all the fighting spirit in his body poured out on the dummy on the charge road.

  Boom!

  The dummy made of spirit gold was blown to pieces.

  At the same time, he burst out laughing violently, only feeling that the battle qi in his body seemed to have a chain reaction, and as he performed the battle qi martial arts, all the battle qi broke through the critical value and leaped to another level.

   Dou temperament changes.

  Become thicker, tougher, and longer, and become sharper, lighter, and more explosive.

  Two completely different qualities, but at the same time manifested in the brand-new quality of Dou Qi, the roar of the sea of ​​blood was even more surging, and the continuous stream of new quality of Dou Qi burst out, making him seem to have endless power.

  The knight's spear was raised again, and with a single blow, the spirit gold dummy in front of him was smashed into pieces.

  The power is several times stronger than the previous full blow.

   "It's hearty!" Duke laughed, and rode back to the rest area of ​​the playground, threw the knight's spear casually, and threw it into the crowd.

  A great knight stood up in an instant, caught the knight's spear, and exclaimed by the way: "Congratulations, sir, break the shackles, and advance to the first-level great knight!"

   "Congratulations, my lord, for advancing!"

   "Congratulations, my lord."

  The great knights in the rest area congratulated Duke one after another. As the captain of the guard knights, Vivienne also stared at Duke with shining eyes.

  Xiao Dou stood up on Duke's shoulder, as if all the congratulations were for him, chirping triumphantly.

  Duke has calmed down his excitement and returned to his usual indifference: "It's a matter of course. Two days ago, Xiaodou advanced to 1-ring spirit beast, and I have reached the critical point of breakthrough. However, I have been busy. I waited until the weekend to rest before choosing to break through."

   "Sir, do you want to practice charging together?" Vivian suggested.

   "Forget it, I won't practice, I will keep the small pocket, and you continue to train it." Duke threw the small pocket down and chose to run away.

   Become a great knight and strengthen your fighting spirit.

  He has already achieved his goal of stacking armor, so he doesn't need to spend any more energy on cultivating battle qi. As for the 2-ring Eudemons Knight, he needs opportunities, and hard work alone is useless.

   Back to Tower 2, just finished taking a shower.

   Then I saw Butler Morris waiting in the hall with an acquaintance—Suktarah's assistant Subbotan.

   "Your Excellency Duke, have you rested?" Subotan asked with a smile.

  Duke patted his forehead and sighed in his heart: "The teacher really doesn't let me go for a minute. It's rare to have a weekend break, so he still calls me over!"

  After complaining a few words in his heart, he replied calmly: "Okay, wait a while, I'll have a cup of tea and set off."

   It is rare to meet a teacher who is willing to teach him everything, and Duke does not want to miss such a good opportunity, so after drinking the tea, he followed Subotan to the Mage Tower.

   Teaching is no longer in Tower 1.

  Because the basic alchemy knowledge has already been taught, the rest of the teaching needs to be completed with experiments, so it is placed in the mage tower.

   "Teacher." Entering the laboratory, Duke said hello.

  Silver-haired Suktara, judging from her posture, it is impossible to tell that she is one hundred and sixty years old, with rosy skin and bright eyes, she can be called a child with white hair.

   This is spiritual energy that nourishes the body at all times, keeping the body youthful and energetic.

  Even today’s Duke can feel the blessing of spiritual energy to his body, allowing him to be in peak condition all the time without worrying about the aging and degeneration of his body functions—even though he is only seventeen years old now, not yet eighteen years old.

   "Come on, the teacher has prepared an interesting experiment today, which will allow you to better understand the transformation between spirituality and matter."

  Suktara beckoned and continued to fiddle with the instruments and tools on the table.

   "Teacher, have you been in the laboratory for a long time?" Duke immediately started to attack Suktarah, "You have been working too hard these days. You are required to preside over the work at the Union Tower, and you will be busy teaching me when you return to the Mage Tower."

  Suktara looked at Duke with a kind smile: "How many times have I told you that there is no need to feel sorry for the teacher. Although the teacher is old, he is not bad at all."

  She pointed to the experiment she designed, and said: "Look, these spiritual materials can be refined into 'Terus Core' material after processing. This material is a common material for refining quasi-arcane weapons. Among the keel of the airship, there is the Ters Core material."

  There are dozens of untreated spiritual materials on the table, including ores, metals, bones, and some wood.

   After Duke identified the spiritual materials one by one, Suktara and others pointed to another pile of mud-like spiritual materials: "These are the spiritual materials I have processed. They are called 'swallow mud'. Swallows use mud to make their nests. The material of swallow mud is the main material for buildings such as the mage tower."

  She told Duke: "Come on, let the teacher make the core of Ters first."

"OK."

  Duke is skilled at using spiritual materials, using his thoughts to guide spiritual energy, and processing it through alchemy.

  With the assistance of Xiaoyi, every step of material processing can be perfectly controlled, which is much easier than drawing spell models in card materials.

  Even if Duke closed his eyes, he could follow Xiaoyi's steps to refine the materials.

  While processing the material, Suktara looked at Duke's technique from the corner of his eye, and the more he watched, the more satisfied he was. Maybe there is still a little stagnation in the operation of the technique, but the control of steps and spiritual energy is not much worse than that of her old alchemist.

  It has only been more than three months since Duke studied with her.

   It took only two months to officially start alchemy.

   It took only two months to handle materials so skillfully. In Suktara's mind, Duke was born to be an alchemist.

   "This child is right to learn from me!" Suktara has lost count of how many times, and sighed in his heart, "If I hadn't insisted, his talent as an alchemist would have been buried...Thanks to the spiritual blessing for giving me and him the fate of master and apprentice."

   Not long after, the material has been processed.

  Duke turned to look at Suktara: "Teacher, what should I do next?"

  The kindness in Suktara's eyes almost overflowed: "My child, the next step is to fuse the materials to make the core of Ters."

  The process is somewhat complicated, and the operation is even more delicate.

  However, with the assistance of Xiaoyi, Duke still completed the laying work excellently, and cooperated with Suktara to successfully make a beaker of the core of Ters.

   "The core of Tersi can be stretched very long, try it." Suktara said with a smile.

  Duke pulled it with his hand, and it looked like the core of mucus, but after pulling it up, it looked like noodles, and it would not break when pulled several meters long.

   Even if it is pulled to the thickness of a hair, there is still no way to break it.

   "This is the core of Tersi. After drawing it, weaving it into a strand, and then adding it to the keel of the airship, it is difficult to break the keel even if it is attacked by a 3-ring arcane... But it is still not perfect, and it has a limit of endurance."

  Suktara sighed after speaking: "Facing the attack of the sub-dragon that exceeds the upper limit, the core of Tersi can't do anything, otherwise, there would be no arcanist sacrificed in the last insect swarm."

   A little emotion.

  She brought the topic back: "What we have to do now is to mix the core solution of Ters and the swallow mud together, and then you can feel carefully, and feel what kind of changes will burst out between these two alchemy materials."

  She poured the mucus of the core of Ters into the swallow mud.

  Duke quickly poured psychic energy into it, and then followed the perception of psychic energy to experience the changes carefully. This is the mystery of alchemy.

   At first, there seems to be no collision between the two materials.

  But as the solution continued to mix, the spirituality contained in it began to contact, and this contact, like setting off fireworks, burst out in all directions.

  Countless spiritual beings arise, die and transform in it.

  Through the perception of psychic power, Duke was soon deeply shocked. He seemed to feel these illusory spirituality, gathered into a fresh life, and then died and slackened in a short period of time.

  And his spiritual power quickly couldn't stand the spiritual impact of the material, and he was involved in it, joining the sequence of illusion.

  Duke came back to his senses, and saw that in the vessel, after the two materials were mixed, it was like a pot of thick paste boiling, bubbling thick bubbles.

   Immediately there were a few drops of the mixed viscous material, which broke away from the paste as the bubbles burst, and then tried to climb outside the vessel as if it had grown feet.

   But before climbing to the outer mouth of the container, it lost momentum, slowly slipped down, and fell into the paste.

"this…"

   "Do you feel that these materials seem to have life?" Suktara sighed, "This is the power of life."

   "Life force?"

   "Yes, spirituality is bound to be born in all spiritual materials, and spirituality is always transformed with all things. Spirituality is the source of your birth and the nourishment for your growth, but in the end, we will all return to spirituality, to the sea of ​​spirituality."

  Suktara continued: "In the eyes of alchemists, the sea of ​​spirituality hits the waves on the shore and casts all things in the world. We take a drop of seawater and throw it into the sea of ​​spirituality to restore it to its original appearance. This process is alchemy."

   "So, this is the principle that after alchemy, the spiritual materials can be cast into arcane weapons and collected in the spiritual sea?" Duke asked softly.

   "Yes, and no. We know that the spiritual ocean is boundless, but we don't know where it exists, so we just put this drop of sea water into the spiritual ocean of our imagination, which is the spiritual ocean of each of us."

   paused.

  Suktara sighed again: "Sorrell, he just saw this process and felt that alchemy is a process of sacrificing the basics, so he wanted to find the real spiritual sea...so he switched to study the life box."

  Looking at Duke, she said: "I have considered before whether to give you this class so soon, I am afraid that you will also learn from Sorel to study the origin of life. But the teacher believes that you are not Sorel, you will not be confused by the real spiritual sea, you are a natural alchemist."

   "Eh." Duke wanted to say that he would not refuse anyone, and wanted to have a hand in any field.

  But after thinking about it, he replied in the affirmative: "I don't know if I'm a natural alchemist, but I think alchemy is more worthy of my research. The transformation of matter and spirituality is a huge subject, and I will do my best."

   "My good boy, the teacher is right about you." Suktara couldn't help holding Duke's hand, "The future of alchemists should be entrusted to you to revitalize."

this moment.

  Duke is not only the successor in Suktara's mind, but also the son of spiritual favor to revitalize the alchemists.

  A sense of sacred mission filled Suktara's heart.

   She wished she could not sleep, and gave Duke all her alchemy knowledge, and asked Duke to revitalize the alchemist.

  Looking at the teacher's eyes, Duke shivered involuntarily.

   Finally made it to lunch time.

  Duke finally got a chance to catch his breath. He hurried back to Tower 2 and told Morris after eating: "If Assistant Subbotan still comes to see me in the afternoon, tell the teacher that I have something to deal with and ask the teacher not to wait for me."

  Then hurriedly left the Suktara Mage Tower, not thinking about where to go, in short, don't stay in this Mage Tower that is dragged to class at any time.

   "Sir, you don't seem to like going to Master Suktara's class." The little assistant secretly laughed at him.

  Duke stared: "What do you know, work and rest!"

  Although he likes to study spiritual mysteries, he doesn't want to stay in the laboratory all day and be a "Frankenstein".

   Enjoying life is just as important.

   "My lord, are you just wandering the streets like this?" Royce, the driver of the shuttle, asked.

   After thinking about it, Duke said, "Let's go to the headquarters of the Giant of Light."

"OK."

  The headquarters of the Giant of Light is still in the original small building, but the new headquarters is already under planning, but there is no money to build it for the time being.

  The company's funds have been invested in the lighting battle, and they are fighting head-to-head with Runwanjia in the entire Fengxi field.

  Basically, for every portable lamp sold, the company will lose ten copper dragons.

   This is still not a big deal. After all, 2 million lamps were sold, and the loss was only 20 million copper dragons, equivalent to about 2,000 golden dragons.

  The entire Shenjiao City has a population of 9 million, and the market is only that big. If it expands to the entire Fengxi field, there are only more than 200 million people, how many lamps can be sold. Even if everyone has a portable lamp, they will only lose 200,000 gold dragons.

  The real bulk lies in publicity costs, channel costs and various labor costs.

  For this commercial war, nearly 100,000 gold dragons have been spent on the account of the Giant of Light Company, and it is about to bottom out.

   "Sir, we currently only have three regions, and the sales volume exceeds Runwanjia." After arriving at the headquarters of the Giant of Light, Vuillard reported to his work in shame, "Basically, Runwanjia is not selling aura lamps, but giving them away for free. The aura lamps cost about 28 copper dragons, and they sell 14 copper dragons."

  The financial manager, Mu Lusi, was also there, and she complained, "This is not a discount, it's a fracture!"

   "It's okay, continue to spread, they break the bone, and we break the bone." Duke didn't care at all, "I will act in the next year, and Runwanjia should jump at that time... In addition, I will often go to the Boxue Tower to appeal and let Runwanjia pay me the patent fee."

  The patents of portable lights and other technologies are all in the hands of Duke, so Runwanjia needs to pay him for patent infringement fees.

   Speaking of which, Duke simply refused to listen to the work report: "Let's go, Xiao Lili, let's go to the Erudite Tower to continue our appeal, and we will stay in the Erudite Tower this afternoon!"

   Looking for tickets~
