MTL - Studying Science in the Alternate World-Chapter 211 Son of the Sun

  Chapter 211 Son of the Sun

  The awarding ceremony was not as grand as the bell-ringing ceremony, but it was extraordinarily honorable at the level of an arcanist. After a lengthy speech, Irwin, the chief director of the Tower of Learning, personally put on a special hat of a scholar for Duke.

   It is a bit like a doctor's hat, and it looks very stylish when worn on the head.

  In addition to the polymath hat, there is also a special scholar card with the logo of natural science on it, which means that he is a polymath.

   "Come on, let's invite a Duke polymath to give his acceptance speech." Erwin said cheerfully, holding Duke's hand.

   There is a polymath born locally, for him, it is part of his own merit.

   This is even related to whether he can be awarded the title of Erudite Sage in the future.

   To be promoted from a scholar to a sage, it depends not only on the attainments of natural history, but also on the number of natural history talents brought out. A polymath like Duke is a top-level naturalist talent, and it will add a lot to Erwin's promotion path.

   "Welcome the Duke polymath to give a speech!" Joanna Lynx yelled loudly while applauding vigorously in the crowd.

  Duke won the title of polymath, and she felt even more excited than Duke.

  Probably also because this is the first arcanist to receive the title of scholar among her small circle of friends, so she is honored.

   It may also be because, for her, there is little hope of obtaining a scholar title. Even her father, the third-ring arcanist Jovis Bobcat, has never received any scholar titles, so what is not obtained is the most precious, and the charm of scholar titles is boundless.

   "Ahem." Duke cleared his throat.

  The arcane mages gave the newly promoted polymath a lot of face, and soon stopped whispering, and all turned their attention to Duke in the center of the field.

  Duke slowly gave the most brilliant and handsome smile to the arcanists around him, and gave back that everyone was willing to listen to him quietly.

  The reporters who were guarding the periphery, not daring to squeeze in beside the arcane mages, also took out slide cards one after another, and recorded Duke's handsome appearance. Then he took out his notebook and held it in one hand, ready to quickly record Duke's next speech.

   It is conceivable that in the next few days, Duke won the title of polymath, which will definitely become a hot news in Shenjiao City and even the entire Heijiaohe region.

  The people of the Seven Towers Federation worship arcanists and scholars more than stars on Earth.

   "When I was a child, I lived in the Sheshou Town Welfare Institute. My friends loved to play, but I only liked to look up at the sky." Duke spoke slowly because he needed to search for the memories left by his predecessor.

   Then reorganize these memory fragments, trying to outline myself as a child.

  “I always think a lot, why the stars blink, why the moon waxes and wanes, why the sky is blue, why the sun is so small and so hot... When I grow up, I work in a card repair shop in the town, and I am still full of thoughts.”

   "I looked at my card repairer at the time, who would save one or two patina boxes every month. I was thinking that patina boxes are not expensive. Why are patina boxes so expensive?"

   "This is an interesting story." Duke teased maliciously, a third-ring arcane mage who hadn't been there, "Then I invented a technique that saves on wrapping boxes, and then I sold it, because I urgently need money to buy spirit awakening potions."

  There are well-informed arcane mages around, and they smiled face-to-face, adding a touch of joy to the quiet atmosphere.

   "A spirit awakening potion needs 23 silver dragons."

   "I never thought I was a genius, how can a genius need to take drugs to open the spiritual sea, but I am undoubtedly lucky."

  Duke became more and more fluent in his speech, and talked freely: "I sold the technology to the shop owner, and the boss paid me 10 gold dragons, but I think the boss must have resold it for a high price, because after he came back, he felt that he had treated me badly, so he didn't even want the shop, and just gave it to me for nothing."

   "This is the first property in my life. So far, it is still running the repair card business in Sheshou Town."

   "Undoubtedly, I have a close relationship with spirit cards... So I have become a card maker now. I successfully made arcane cards a while ago, and now my shop can already sell one-ying spirit cards made by myself."

  An arcane mage suddenly applauded, and Duke could see clearly that it was Sanfis.

  As Sanfis took the lead, applause soon erupted in the whole hall, and only the peripheral reporters kept recording.

   Waiting for the applause to subside, Duke looked around.

  The arcane mages whom they knew or didn’t know nodded and smiled. When they saw Kylia Raging Wave and Joanna Lynx who gave him a thumbs up, they raised their brows specially.

   opened his mouth and continued: "But I also have a close relationship with alchemy. My teacher Suktara led me into a new field and allowed me to see more different scenery. I am inspired by this and will always work hard to add bricks."

   Taking advantage of the pause, he smiled at Suktara in the crowd.

   Suktarah was overjoyed.

  Du Kefu said again: "But the topic has already been highlighted here. I must say that I have a close relationship with Natural History."

  "I don't like the dark night. The night in the orphanage is so dark...I often fantasize about keeping the sun in the daytime, in winter, and in cloudy days...but the sun is too far away, and I can't keep it. The sun rises and the moon sets, and it doesn't change according to anyone's will."

   "But when I mention the spirit lamp, I think, maybe I can carry a little sun to provide me with light in the dark night..."

   "I invented the portable light...but it's not enough."

  “…After countless attempts, I finally invented the strong light technology…I realized my wish. I hold the sun in my hands. Although it is a small sun, it can still turn night into day.”

   "I remember when I made the first batch of strong lights, I went to the orphanage in Sheshou Town and installed the strong lights myself."

   "The night is coming, turn on the switch."

   "The orphanage is as bright as daytime, and the children are cheering. I think that in the future, the nights in the orphanage will never be so dark again."

  Duke really did this, but not specifically for orphanages.

  In the strong light factory in Sheshou Town, the first batch of strong lights that were trial-produced were basically absorbed by the interior of Sheshou Town.

   In order to express their support for Duke, the Black Snake family purchased a large number of bright lights and replaced all the lights in the town. When Duke was inspecting at that time, he stopped by the orphanage and sponsored some money and supplies to the orphanage.

   Which includes bright lights.

  Art comes from life and is higher than life, so Duke simply processed this matter and added it to his speech.

  Little inspirational and sensational.

   Sure enough, after the speech ended, the audience burst into applause again. It was completely different from the perfunctory formulaic applause before. It was warm and powerful applause from the heart of everyone.

   "Thank you, thank you everyone!" Duke held the scholar card in his hand, "Thanks to the Erudite Tower for affirming me and granting me the title of Erudite. I still have a lot of ideas and inspirations, waiting for me to transform them into inventions and change the world!"

"Thanks!"

  Duke delivered his investiture speech.

  However, his mission is not over yet, and the arcane mages have dispersed one after another, so he has to stay to accept interviews from the reporters.

  After the interview is over, you have to change to a new Faling Card—a scholar’s ​​Faling Card, which will be inlaid with gold borders around the Faling Card.

   "Your Excellency Duke, thank you for accepting the interview with "Daily Shenjiao City." The newspaper reporter said respectfully.

   "You're welcome, if you have any questions, just ask, let's hurry up, I still have something to deal with later."

   "Okay, then let's officially start." The reporter flipped through his notebook, "You just turned eighteen today. According to the information we found, you should be the youngest scholar in the entire wind breath field. How do you feel about this?"

   "Actually, it's okay. After all, I was promoted to an arcane mage relatively early, and now I have been studying spiritual arcana for almost two years."

   "Nowadays, the strong light has become a must-have lamp for the home. Countless people are praising you. Do you have any response to this?"

   "I hope my invention can bring more convenience to the society. The mysteries of spirituality are boundless. Not only the upper floors should have beautiful scenery, but the lower floors should also have beautiful scenery." Duke thought for a while and said, "I will continue to cultivate in the field of natural history."

   "You speak really well, and you are too considerate of the people at the bottom." The reporter sincerely admired, and then asked: "You are still studying in the Mage Tower. When you finish your training, will you go to the Knowledge Tower?"

   "I didn't think about it."

   "OK, next question..."

  After a few questions, the reporter from "Daily Shenjiao City" left and asked another reporter from another newspaper. It took half an hour to finish the interview.

  Duke goes to Erwin's office.

  After obtaining the title of polymath, his status has been greatly improved. Now he does not need to make an appointment, and he can jump in line to visit any arcanist.

   Didn't talk about anything important, just came to say hello, and then thank the other party for their support.

   "Work hard, I hope to see the birth of a erudite sage in my lifetime." Erwin personally sent Duke to the door of the office.

   "I will try my best." Duke left.

  Go back to the Suktara Master Tower, continue the unfinished birthday celebration, and relax until the evening.

  Suktara did not propose to continue teaching at night.

  So Duke sent off the guests who celebrated his birthday, and then lay on his big bed, enjoying a rare time to relax.

   "Happy birthday, Duke." The chick swam out of the sea of ​​air.

   "It's rare to hear you talk without a foul mouth." Duke laughed.

   It’s been almost two years since the contract with Chick. Chick’s body size has not changed significantly, but the pair of short legs are obviously longer and thicker.

   "Hey, I don't have a bad mouth, I just like to tell the truth." The chicken shook its thick tail, "Well, it's your birthday today, happy, I want to eat two spirit crystals."

   "Haha, why don't you eat two pieces of spirit crystals, eat, eat as much as you want!" Duke directly put a large pile of spirit crystals on the table, "The giant of light has won a big victory in the business war, and now it has begun to pay back. I sent it, you know!"

   "You got it?" Chick stared wide-eyed, "Haha, I knew Duke you could do it, who can make more money than you, I'll eat it!"

   As he spoke, he picked up a spirit crystal.

   Crackling and crackling a few times, he chewed it up and swallowed it, then picked up another one, chewed it up and swallowed it.

   After eating four spirit crystals in a row, he burped: "I can't eat any more, I have to digest."

   "It's enough to eat just four. You're not good at it. How long does it take to evolve into a big elf with this small appetite." Duke laughed.

  Chicken snorted: "Eat healthy to live longer."

   "Well, in short, open it up for me in the future, what is the spirit crystal, I will buy you a spirit mine in the future." Duke boasted, "I am now a polymath, and I am a famous big shot in the Heijiaohe area."

  Chicken asked: "Then can you save my grandma?"

   "This... I'll ask you later."

   "Humph, dish!"

   "Don't worry, I'm in the rising stage of my career now. When I make progress, I will have the capital to bargain with the Arcane Master of the 4th ring. At that time, I will negotiate with Bernoulli and ask your grandma to come over so that you two can be reunited."

  Chicken's grandma is an ancient spirit.

  Each ancient spirit is like a book of arcana written from ancient times to today.

  In the entire Heijiaohe land, there are only a few mage towers with ancient spirits.

  The best arrangement for the ancient spirit is to become the "tower spirit" of the mage tower, and cooperate with the master of the mage tower to better manage the entire mage tower.

  Or the ancient spirit can be arranged as a "war spirit" to help control a battleship.

  Now it is very difficult for Duke to fight for such an ancient spirit with Bernoulli, the 4th-ring arcane mage. Even if the giant of light is given to the opponent, the ancient spirit cannot be exchanged.

   "Don't lie to me."

   "How could I lie to you, there is an elf contract between you and me, you still don't understand my thoughts?"

   "It's only because I understand that I wonder if you will lie to me!"

   "Chicken, you hurt my heart by saying that." Duke was sad, and then said, "Tomorrow, I will take you to visit Xiaohong."

   "Okay, okay, I haven't seen Xiaohong for a few days. Alas, I don't know if Xiaohong can find a partner and start a new ant colony." The chicken was happy and distressed, "Why do you think the male ants with three rings can't mate with Xiaohong normally!"

   "I'll let the Broken Sword Mercenary Corps keep an eye out in the Emerald Sea Valley. Maybe they can find a burrow marching ant with a bloodline of 5 rings. When the time comes, I'll grab a male ant to pair with." Duke said.

  He now raises Xiaohong, the crypt marching queen ant with a bloodline of 5 rings, on the farm.

   For this reason, I also specifically asked several arcane masters in the field of controlling Gu for advice on how to cultivate spirit insects and how to breed spirit insects.

Unfortunately.

  Xiaohong inherited the 5-ring bloodline of the queen ant Hongzhizhi, and is reproductively isolated from the common crypt army ants with 3-ring bloodline.

  So even though Duke bought a few live-captured 3-ringed male ants from Snake Town, Xiaohong still couldn't give birth to offspring. Now there is only one ant, alone in the designated area of ​​the farm, digging the nest every day, in a daze.

  Even if Duke thinks of catching a group of ordinary burrow army ants and giving them to Xiaohong as his subordinates.

  Xiao Hong didn't cooperate either, seeing these army ants not produced by herself, she went up and killed the army ants.

   "Where can I find it? When the red branch is alive, the mercenaries can't catch its ants." The chicken is very disdainful of the mercenaries, and it only respects arcanists like Duke. "It's better to take Xiaohong to Cuihai Valley, and let Xiaohong find her husband by herself!"

   "Hmm..." Duke's eyes lit up when the chicken said this, "Chicken, maybe what you said makes sense."

"What?"

   "Most of the crypt marching ants in Cuihai Valley have been wiped out by the Arcane Masters, and the rest have also been mopped up by the Spotted Beetle Legion in the Bernoulli Master Tower. The mercenaries rarely come across these ants anymore."

   "So I said, it's all for nothing." The chicken spread out on the table, digesting the full spirit crystal.

  Duke said: "No, no, no, the fact that the mercenaries can't find it doesn't mean that Xiaohong can't find it. Xiaohong has wings and can fly by herself. I can definitely take it to Cuihai Valley and let it find male ants with a bloodline of 5 rings to mate!"

  Basically, once the queen ants mate, they can benefit for a lifetime.

   When the time comes, bring Xiaohong back, and then she will be able to breed Xiaohong's ant colony here on the farm.

   Think and do it.

  Duke asked for a leave of absence from Mentor Penrose the next day, and informed Teacher Suktara, and prepared to take the Black Beetle to Snake Town.

   "Son, take the teacher's airship Chasing Shadow. From now on, when you travel far, you will use the airship Chasing Shadow. Anyway, the teacher doesn't go out very often." Suktala learned of Duke's plan, and directly gave his own airship to Duke for use.

  Duke declined, and then gladly accepted.

  The teacher treats him sincerely, how can he live up to this true love, and spend more time on alchemy in the future, just repay the teacher.

  The airship Chasing Shadow lifted off slowly, and Duke took his own set of team members to enjoy the joy of sailing in the sky.

   This airship is a standardized airship, which has solidified several powerful arcane arts.

   "Wow, sir, the feeling of riding the airship alone is different from the feeling of squeezing the airship with other arcanist lords." The little assistant Murali walked around in the luxurious cabin of the airship, full of joy.

   "Hmm." Duke said perfunctorily.

  He is reading today's newspaper. Reading the newspaper for a while every day is a good habit he has developed.

  The headline on the front page of "Daily Shenjiao City" is a picture of Duke wearing a polymath hat with a bright smile on his face.

   "Duke, the son of the sun who brought light to the people, won the title of polymath bestowed by the holy city of Austria!"

  The article praised Duke’s great invention, which brought light to thousands of households, and recounted in detail the inspirational story about the orphanage and the little sun in Duke’s speech, and called Duke the son of the sun, as if all the light was brought by Duke.

  As for the arcane master who invented the light bulb, let's not mention it.

   "The youngest scholar in the field of wind breath, the genius arcanist in Shenjiao City, and the honorary title of Duke scholar in the Boxue Tower."

  In another newspaper, the title of Duke was still the headline on the front page, with a picture showing a group of arcanists surrounding Duke.

   "The great arcane master who came out of the orphanage was crowned as a polymath in the Erudite Tower yesterday."

   "Duke, the youngest arcane master in Heijiaohe, has become the youngest scholar in the field of wind breath, and has achieved unprecedented great achievements."

   "Congratulations to Mage Duke Ou for being awarded the title of polymath."

   "The Son of the Sun gained light for the people, and the ambassador of light, Duke, was awarded the title of polymath."

  The newspapers were full of praises for Duke, and some of them even reached the nasty level.

   Almost blowing Duke up to the same level as the sages in the Hall of Valor.

   It is important to know that in the Temple of Heroes in the Holy City of Arcana, every candidate is an epoch-making arcane master, who has made important contributions to all mankind on the path of spiritual arcana.

   "Too much water, too much bragging!" Duke shook his head while watching the whole content happily.

  The sense of accomplishment in my heart is almost overflowing.

  In any case, with the promotion of strong light fixtures in the Seven Towers Federation, his name will also be destined to enter the annals of history.

  Son of the sun, bringer of light.

   "No new nickname." He put down the newspaper in his hand, and told Mu Lali, "I'm going to practice, don't let anyone disturb me before I arrive at the station."

   "Okay, sir." Mu Lali hurriedly left the room and carefully closed the door.

  Duke restrained his emotions, sat cross-legged on the comfortable training bed, closed his eyes and looked inside his spiritual sea, observing the development of the spiritual core.

  The looming spiritual core has become more and more like a spell model.

  Although the momentum of development is slow, it can be seen clearly with the naked eye, and it is changing all the time.

   "This is the spirituality brought about by the strong light technology, which is promoting my understanding of spiritual mysteries." Duke knew very well in his heart, "Being awarded the title of polymath will not substantially improve my practice, but the knowledge tower helped me promote the strong light technology, which undoubtedly condenses my spirituality."

  Spirituality is mysterious and mysterious.

  Duke's invention has entered thousands of households, and many ordinary people have been affected by it, so there is a slight interaction between them.

  Like a drop of water lapped by the tide in the spiritual sea.

   Gathering less becomes more, and eventually a wave will be formed, which will slam on the coast and complete a spiritual feedback.

  The result of the feedback is reflected in Duke's spiritual sea.

   "Naturalism is flourishing, perhaps it is these thousands of ordinary people who bring spiritual waves to polymaths and help polymaths practice faster."

   Real, unreal.

  Individual, mass.

  Spirituality connects everything, even if it is thousands of miles away, even if it is thousands of years old, it can connect two seemingly unrelated things together.

   "This is the spiritual mystery!"

  Duke sighed for a moment, and looked at Xiaoyi's progress chart projected in the spiritual sea.

   "Process 1: Exclusive meditation method, 25% power consumption when on-hook. At present, the spiritual sea level, a ring 1 arcane scholar, the cultivation progress is estimated to be 35%, and the time budget cannot be quantified. Important reminder: The evolution speed of the spiritual core has accelerated sharply recently, and the cultivation progress has increased by about 8% in a short period of time."

   There are too many uncertainties in the cultivation progress of the Arcane Master, and Xiaoyi is unable to give specific quantitative figures.

  However, Xiaoyi can accurately record the changes in the progress of cultivation.

  During the promotion of strong light technology, the feedback generated through spiritual interaction helped him deepen his understanding of spiritual mysteries, which has increased his progress by about 8%, and this feedback is still continuing.

   "The study of natural history is far more important than I imagined. Perhaps it's time to do a drastic research on film and television-related patented technologies!"

  For the research on slide cards, he has accumulated quite a lot of new ideas.

   It’s just temporarily stored in Xiaoyi’s database.

   Immediately.

  He looked at the next line of the progress table: "Process 2: Healing Arcane Wonders, consuming 55% power when on-hook. The current construction progress is 95.5%, and the time budget is 23 days."

  The third arcane wonder has risen on the orbit.

  It was a group of complex and delicate green rays of light, vaguely forming a heart-shaped structure, and the two arcane wonders of the arcane shield and illusion, presenting a three-legged state on the track, and the next arcane ring, the sand eagle, rotates independently.

   "The Healing Arcane Wonder is coming soon, but the ring track still has redundant space, and I can build a new Arcane Wonder!"

  Duke is pleased with this, most 1st ring Arcanists can also build two or three arcane wonders.

  And he was able to build four arcane wonders, and they were all relatively complex arcane arts. It can be seen that the spiritual core he condensed is better than others.

   "Process 3: Sand Eagle 1.52 Special Effect Bullet-Element Edition, research and development consumes 19% of the power. The current research and development progress is 95.4%, and the technical points have not yet made a breakthrough, and the time budget cannot be estimated."

   "Process 4: Interactive program, reserve 1% power."

  Shaying’s research and development got stuck on a technical difficulty, and Duke couldn’t help it for the time being, so Xiaoyi could only let Xiaoyi try to overcome it by himself.

   Browse through all processes.

  Duke restrained his thoughts and began to sink into cultivation slowly. Although Xiaoyi's on-hook practice is an auxiliary artifact, occasionally he has to practice it himself to deepen his understanding of the content calculated by Xiaoyi and enhance his understanding of spiritual mysteries.

  Xiaoyi can't replace Xiaoyi's cognition of spiritual mysteries, he must complete it by himself.

   Fortunately.

  No matter how complicated the knowledge is, after Xiaoyi's analysis and processing, it can be transformed into a relatively easy-to-understand method for Duke.

  It's like a difficult and complicated math problem, but Xiaoyi has already solved the answer completely, and every step is explained clearly.

  Duke just needs to follow his train of thought and nod his head.

   "Cultivation... really happy."

  ——

   It’s the last day, and the monthly pass will be invalid after it expires. Everyone, let’s vote for Lao Bai!
