Studying Science in the Alternate World

Chapter 192 The Mediocre Arcane Mage (Three in One)

The reputation of Bernoulli's Mage Tower in Shenjiao City has quickly fallen to the bottom as the insect swarm invasion continued to ferment.

All the newspapers are playing it up.

The cause of the invasion of the Black Jade Horseshoe Dragon was attributed to Bernoulli's earth arcanist's unwillingness to face it head-on, and wanted to drive the local arcanist, knights, and mercenaries to work for him.

Apparently behind these newspapers, there are people such as Keyston Rage.

However, Bernoulli has been reluctant to come to the forefront of the war in person, and he has indeed been criticized. You must know that he is the protagonist of the war.

The Cuihai Valley development war was an application submitted by Bernoulli himself to Offata.

"The local arcane masters in Shenjiao City already dislike foreign arcane masters. They came here to start a pioneering war, and even complained about the Black Snake family." Duke thought to himself, "If Bernoulli doesn't change his reputation, Cuihai Town After the establishment, I am afraid that not many people are willing to go.”

The blame in the newspapers is more of a warning to Bernoulli from Keyston and others.

If Bernoulli cheated again, Shen Jiao City would never cooperate with him, support him, and continue to wage war against Cuihai Valley.

Duke finished reading a page of "Daily Shenjiao City".

The door of the office finally opened, and Erwin, who had met once before, sent another middle-aged arcanist out in person.

When the middle-aged arcanist passed by, he gave Duke a gentle smile, and then entered the spiritual ladder.

"Duke, come in and talk." Erwin, the Arcane Mage, looked at Duke with a friendly smile, turned and entered the office.

Duke followed.

"My lord, what do you want from me?" Duke asked.

"I told you before that you have the talent of a polymath, right? I remember that you had an epiphany under the No. 3 mine in Cuihai Valley?" Erwin asked. He still remembered the meeting with Duke. Scenario, "How many visions do you have right now?"

"I'm ashamed. After that epiphany, I didn't get another chance, so there are still nine visions."

For the vision of the exclusive meditation method, if you want to have an epiphany, the opportunity is very important. Even a genius with understanding like Duke, it is difficult to often have an epiphany.

"Nine types are already pretty good, and they should be in the forefront among the 1st ring arcanists." Erwin said with a smile.

His assistant brought Duke coffee.

Duke thanked him politely, and responded: "Thanks to the accumulation of the spiritual apprenticeship stage, otherwise we would not have achieved so many visions."

"Keep working hard, you have just been promoted, spirituality favors you, and you have enough time to collide with opportunities." Erwin said perfunctorily, maybe he didn't think there was anything in the nine visions in his heart, "I heard from the following people that you recently Apply for many patents?"

"Yes." Duke replied frankly.

When he was reading the newspaper outside, he thought why Erwin was looking for him. It could only be that the recent patent registration was too high-profile.

"So these patents, are you thinking of them yourself?" Erwin looked at the information in his hand, "Pocket lamps, miner's lamps, table lamps, searchlights... You have improved the spiritual wind lamp, which is indeed a good direction for improvement. Started a new company?"

"Um, yes."

"The development is very good. There are very few new arcanist masters who can do things like you, and you are still so young, one year younger than Kiriya, right...Have you ever considered, starting from Master Penrose? After graduation, come to work with me?"

Duke was a little embarrassed by the solicitation of Chi Guoguo: "I haven't thought about it so much for now, I just want to learn the card making technology well."

"It's right to think so, but you are talented in natural history, don't let this talent down, you can think about it more."

Erwin then chatted with Duke for a while, and then said, "Okay, that's all for today, I'm going to the Union Tower for a meeting later."

"Then I will take my leave first."

dizzy come here, dizzy leave.

Duke couldn't figure out what this Elvin Arcane Mage was thinking. He always felt like a solicitation, but it didn't quite fit the other party's status as a 4th-ring Arcane Mage.

If I can't figure it out, I stop thinking: "Whatever, I'll do mine."

After Duke left, Irwin's secretary walked into the office, refilling Erwin's cup while persuading him, "Grandpa, you are acting too abruptly, His Excellency Penrose is also a member of the Five Towers Council, Always respect it."

"What respect, I didn't rob students from him." Erwin snorted.

"But you bluntly said that letting Duke come to work under you is no different from robbing Lord Penrose's students. Many arcane masters outside have expressed dissatisfaction with your actions."

"Let them be dissatisfied. Natural history is the foundation of the long-term development of the Seven Towers Federation. How can vulgar people understand my approach."

"You can enroll a few more students."

"What do you know?" Erwin glanced at his great-grandson, "If the whole family thinks like you, I think it's better not to launch a pioneering war in the future, and it will decline sooner or later... I really want to use the Master Tower to grab Students are the ones who attract people's suspicion, understand."

The secretary didn't know what to think of, and suddenly sighed: "Actually, when the Black Snake family sent someone to contact you, Grandpa, you can take over completely. The Cuihai Valley development war belongs to our family."

"Hehe, and then, are you going to hunt and kill the Black Jade Horseshoe Dragon?"

"How can I, grandpa, you know a lot of people."

"It doesn't matter how many people you know. See if Bernoulli can't sit still now, and he sent students to me for help, and asked for help from Runwu City. Even if he really finished hunting the Black Jade Horseshoe Dragon , Cuihai Valley will also distribute half of the resources!"

"Then there's still half left..."

"Go away, short-sighted kid, why did I give birth to you bastards, there is no one who can inherit my will!" Erwin slapped the table angrily, "Next time you talk nonsense to me, go back to your hometown and don't follow me!" I!"

...

"Sir, you said Ms. Kiria, when will you come? I really want to see this beautiful girl of heaven as soon as possible."

The little assistant sat on the bench, talking boredly.

While reading a book, Duke casually said, "He will come when it's time."

But my heart was a little sour, I felt that the arcanists in Shenjiao City were not as noble as I imagined, they were just a bunch of stinky feet.

When he was promoted to an arcanist at the age of sixteen, he was called a genius arcanist at most.

No one called him the proud son of heaven.

Now Kylia Nutao was only promoted to Arcane Mage at the age of eighteen, and before she even showed up, a group of people outside praised her as the girl of heaven.

Put down the book.

Duke finished the coffee on the table and handed it to Mu Lali: "Go make another cup, I'm going to start working."

His office occupies half a floor, and there is a private laboratory in it, where various experiments can be carried out directly in the office.

The psychic wave capture experiment and the slide card superposition experiment are all carried out here.

However, there is no progress for the time being, and Duke has given up the illusion of immediate results and is preparing for a long-term struggle. Anyway, all consumables can be allocated to his research group in the tower, and Penrose Mage Tower will pay for his own experiments.

"Sir, your coffee is here." Mu Lali happily delivered the coffee.

"Happy?" Duke asked.

"Can you guess why I'm happy?" Mu Lali pretended to be a joke, looking at Duke with a look of anticipation on her pretty face.

He raised his eyebrows.

Duke held his head up, squinted his eyes, and said calmly, "Is it Kylia Nutao who came to report at the Mage Tower?"

"My lord, you are always so wise!" Mu Lali sighed, "How did you guess it? I didn't reveal anything?"

"You have been looking forward to Kiria, and I don't need to guess to know how happy you are now."

"The assistant of Vikas's assistant came to inform that we will have dinner at the castle tavern in the evening, and Ms. Kiria is welcome to join the big family."

"I see."

"There is one more thing, sir, you must not have guessed it." Mu Lali secretly smiled.

"What's the matter?" Seeing Mu Lali's cute look, Duke stretched out his hand and pinched her face.

Not only did Mu Lali not dodge, but she looked at Duke charmingly, and said in a tired voice: "Ms. Kiria's office is next door to ours. She and us had sex in the original one. the neighbors."

"Speak well!" Duke patted Mu Lali on the head, "Don't act like an adult."

"I've grown up, sir!"

"hehe."

"It's true. I'm sixteen years old. In my hometown town, there were many married people at the age of sixteen. Sir, don't treat me like a child."

Duke tapped on Mu Lali's forehead: "Cultivate well, don't think about things."

After dismissing the little assistant, he calmed down and continued his experiment. He was busy until he got off work at night before going out.

After arriving at the tavern, I found myself the last one to arrive.

"I'll just wait for you, Duke, come, let me introduce you." Assistant Vikas was the most enthusiastic in communication. He turned his head and said to the wavy blonde girl who stood up from the sofa chair, "This is Genius arcanist, genius card maker, Duke!"

Duke smiled and stretched out his hand: "Hello."

Kylia Rage turned around, and the first impression she gave Duke was that she had an elegant temperament and an innate aristocratic demeanor.

The facial features are beautiful and delicate, while the face is beautiful, there is a trace of baby fat.

The large arcanist robe concealed her figure, but through the undulations on the outline, one could still imagine that her figure was tall and plump.

Promoted to an arcane mage at the age of eighteen, her talent may not be called the girl of heaven, but with her temperament and famous family background, it is not at all abrupt to describe her as a girl of heaven.

"Hello, Duke, I've heard of you, the youngest Arcane Mage in Shenjiao City, and it's a great honor to work with you." Kylia's voice was pleasant, soft yet with a hint of firm strength , which makes people feel good when they hear it.

She was at least 1.7 meters tall, wearing a pair of high heels, she looked taller than Duke.

Duke is currently 1.8 meters tall. I don't know if there is room for him to grow taller.

When shaking hands, although Duke felt that the opponent's hand was soft, he could tell that the opponent was shaking hands with great strength.

"It's also an honor to work with Ms. Kiria."

The two smiled politely at each other.

"Come on, sit down, let's chat while eating and drinking." Assistant Vikas continued to enliven the atmosphere, "It's everyone's fate that Kylia can come to our Penrose Mage Tower. We who walk a few steps must help her more."

Drinking, chatting, the atmosphere becomes active.

Duke was not very enthusiastic at the wine table. He had the mentality of a bystander who stayed out of the way. He looked at his lofty colleagues in the past, and greeted Kiria.

Until the dinner party is over, each parted.

"Sir, Ms. Kiria is very beautiful. She is the most beautiful and elegant lady I have ever seen."

The little assistant has been overwhelmed by Kiriya's demeanor, as if she has found her idol in life.

Beautiful, with a good family background, talented, and pleasing personality, this may be every woman's imaginary self.

"And she's so approachable, she doesn't have any pretensions when talking to us."

"Really." Duke looked out the window, noncommittal.

He is not stupefied, his experiences before and after time travel let him see very clearly that this kind of girl from a wealthy family may be really approachable on the surface, but the arrogance in her heart is absolutely repulsive. External attitude.

He thought back to his brief conversation with Kylia in the tavern.

Beautiful is of course beautiful, probably the most beautiful woman he has met since time travelling, with blond hair and big waves, beautiful facial features and baby fat, tall and slender figure with faintly visible plumpness.

Soft-spoken but not deliberately contrived.

From an aesthetic point of view, it all grows on his point.

But Duke clearly felt that the other party was not that silly and sweet.

Although the short communication can't tell the depth of the other party's thoughts, but from the point that she can make everyone feel like a spring breeze, she feels that she is a close object. It can be seen that Kiria definitely has good communication skills.

"This is in line with the elite image cultivated by veteran aristocrats."

Of course, there is no need to tell others about this, keep yourself sober and rational, don't be fooled by beauty, just be impulsive.

Suddenly he thought of the two big knight guards beside Kylia.

"I always feel that there is a familiar aura on them, like... like the aura of phantom beasts!" Duke was shocked. Ya's guard is the Eudemons Knight!"

Two rare Eudemons knights acted as guards.

This made him secretly exclaim in his heart: "It's really a card that only veteran nobles can play. Tsk tsk, some people were born in Rome."

At this time, Kiria, who was born in Rome, also took the shuttle and returned to the Tower of Master Keystone.

The Keyston Mage Tower is the tallest building in Shenjiao City. It is built on a hill in the northern outskirts of the city. It soars up to three or four hundred meters.

The whole frame is made of spiritual gold, even if it encounters a magnitude 10 earthquake, it will not be shaken.

The area where the mage's tower is located also has a magnificent castle, covering the entire short mountain, as if it is a country of its own.

The largest aristocratic Nutao family in Heijiaohe land lived here, and along with the development of Shenjiao City from the beginning of its establishment to its current situation.

"Miss Kiriya, you are back. After the master tells you to come back, go there." The assistant housekeeper in a tuxedo waited aside.

Kiriya nodded with a smile: "Okay, Steward Ji'an, I'll go find Grandpa after I change my clothes."

Changing the Arcane Master's robe and putting on a floral skirt, Kylia, along with Steward Ji'an, took the exclusive spiritual ladder and went straight to the top of the tower above the sky.

Clouds wrapped around the waist of Keystone's Mage Tower, hiding the upper half.

Through the clouds, you can look at the top of the tower. The top of the tower is not pointed, but a large garden.

There is a two-story villa in the garden.

Ding dong.

The end of the spiritual ladder is located in a hut in front of the villa. Kylia followed Steward Ji'an out of the hut.

In the flower bed at the entrance of the villa, the elderly gardener, who was trembling as he walked, took off his hat and saluted Kiria: "Miss Kiria, greetings to you."

"Hello, Grandpa Jiping."

After entering the villa, an aunt who was mopping the floor at the door immediately smiled and saluted: "Miss Kiriya, the master is waiting for you."

"Thank you for the reminder, Housekeeper Gina, I'll be there right away." Kylia responded gently.

All the housekeepers and servants in the garden on the top floor are very old. They have accompanied the owner of the villa since they were young. When the day comes when they can no longer work, their descendants will take over from them and continue to serve the owner of the villa.

Generation after generation, they have experienced many births, old ages, sicknesses and deaths.

Only the owner of this villa, Keyston Rage, still hasn't changed much. His golden curly hair like a lion king is the eternal light of the villa.

"Grandfather, Ji Liya is here to see you." The eighteen-year-old heavenly girl, with a cute smile on her face, stepped lightly into the room.

The old man with blond curly hair in the study put down the books in his hands, raised his head, and showed a kind smile: "My little dragon is back."

"Grandpa, you're making fun of me again."

"This is not a joke. The eighteen-year-old Arcane Master was three years earlier than my grandfather was promoted to the Arcane Master."

"But grandpa, you have already become a 5th-ring arcane mage. None of the arcanist mages who were promoted earlier than you could achieve your achievement." Kylia walked behind Kiston and skillfully gave Kiston He beat his shoulders.

Keyston chuckled like an ordinary old man: "Of course, grandpa is best at accumulating wealth."

Then Keyston asked: "Little Kiria, on the first day of studying at the Penrose Master Tower, did you know all the classmates?"

"Well, I got it."

"Has anyone bullied you?"

"How could it be? Everyone is very friendly. We had a drink together in the tavern and talked about some words to enhance our relationship."

"It's good that no one bullies you. If someone dares to bully you, grandpa will spank Penrose's ass."

Kylia giggled.

Penrose is already an old man of the grandpa generation, and he still has to be spanked. But if you think about it carefully, Penrose's eighty or ninety years old is indeed a child compared to Keyston's one hundred and eighty ninety years old.

"By the way, among these classmates, is there anyone who made a deep first impression on you?" Keyston asked casually.

Kiriya thought for a while: "It seems that there is no such thing."

"I remember there was an arcane mage younger than you?"

"Well, yes, his name is Duke."

"Duke, an arcanist who is younger than you, didn't impress you?"

"Before I met, I had expectations. I wanted to meet Duke, who was promoted to an arcanist at the age of sixteen, but after meeting, I found that it was not very special." Kylia thought about the dinner in the tavern. On the screen, "The personality is a bit taciturn, which may be related to experience, but he is quite mature and stable anyway."

"Don't you show your vigor?"

"No."

"Oh, it's boring." Kiston shook his head and sighed, "It seems that he is also a mediocre arcane mage, which is really worrying. It works!"

"Grandpa, you are in charge of the overall situation." Kiriya comforted.

"Grandpa doesn't want to work hard until he dies of old age. He is one hundred and ninety years old and still can't get peace..." Keyston shook his head repeatedly.

Then he commented on his colleagues: "This Williams' style of work is better than your grandfather and me; Erwin is keen on doing things, but the layout is too small, and he wants to pull everything into his own tower; as for Stephen Maverick, The brain is full of muscles...too incompetent!"

Kiria just giggled.

These are all 4-ring arcane mages, and it's not something she, a junior, can comment on casually.

"Okay, okay, I'm an old man nagging endlessly, you must be annoying too."

"How could it be? It's interesting to chat with grandpa."

"Haha, when grandpa was young, he was indeed famous in Shenjiao City for his humor..." Reminiscing about the past, Keyston waved his hand, "Grandpa is tired, you should go back to rest early, since you choose to learn card making , we must work hard for it.”

"Kiriya understands."

...

Duke didn't know that he got a "mediocre arcanist" evaluation from Keyston Rage.

He was sitting cross-legged on the big bed in his own villa, his whole image had been completely overturned, with pointed ears, green eyes, flowing blond hair, tall figure and pale skin.

It is an elf form after merging with a chicken.

With the blessing of the elf form, all aspects of the body's quality have been greatly improved, including the efficiency of cultivation has also improved a lot.

So now every day at night, he fits with the chick, and then practices breathing, blood refining, and meditation.

Look inside the Linghai.

The ring formed by the spiritual core already has multiple protrusions, vaguely pulling the absolutely circular ring into a complex energy line loop.

This is the cultivation of an arcane master. With the in-depth study and understanding of the spiritual arcane, the spiritual core representing the operation logic of one's own arcane gradually evolves into a complete spell model. ring transition.

At that time, he will be promoted to the second ring arcanist.

The research on spiritual mysteries cannot be stopped, and neither can the exclusive meditation methods—cognition is the means of casting spiritual cores, and as for the raw materials needed for casting, they are the free spiritual particles from outside that meditation methods continuously absorb.

"Ah...chichi." Xiaodou woke up from a lethargy, a habit developed in childhood, when it was time to practice the blood refining method, it dozed off.

"Go and play." Duke waved.

Xiaodou jumped out of the window, looking for the friends he made in Beverly Manor. There are many knights in this community, so there are also many contracted spirit beasts, many of which are free-range in the community and can move freely.

"Chichi!"

"Meow."

Xiaodou's cry came from the yard, and the black-spotted serval cat Mimi's perfunctory response, obviously Xiaodou wanted to take Mimi out to play together.

Mimi is a lady, with the same temper as Vivienne, and she is not very interested in going out to play.

At this time.

Duke suddenly frowned, and then a feeling of being torn apart came over him, he had withdrawn from the elf state.

Along with it, there was a little weary chick: "I'm so tired, hurry up and replenish my spirit crystal."

Click, click.

A spirit crystal was chewed up and swallowed by the chick.

Then he cast a sideways glance at Duke: "I'm really a hard-working worker, and I have to be joined by the hateful Duke to work every day."

Duke smiled slightly: "If you don't want to eat spirit crystals, you can choose to refuse."

"This is the tragic fate of a migrant chicken. For a piece of rotten rock, he becomes a slave to the evil capitalist Duke!"

"This rotten stone is not cheap. The standard piece is 25 gold dragons. An ordinary family of three can't eat 25 gold dragons' food in ten years."

"Hmph, are we ordinary people!"

"So what are you complaining about, go to Qihai and sleep." Duke gave the chick a chestnut, this little elf with a bad mouth, wouldn't feel comfortable if he didn't hit him.

"You wait for me!" Chick said harshly, bumped his head on Duke's stomach, and disappeared.

Duke got up and got out of bed, and walked to the corner of the room. There was a cardboard box in the corner, and the fat maggot Xiaohong, which should have been eating non-stop, had already pupated.

Stand still, and secrete special mucus from the body, wrapping itself into a cocoon.

At this time, the cocoons and pupae in the cardboard box were as big as ostrich eggs.

"After the pupation, it's a cocooned adult... I have to build a nest for Xiaohong, and I can't keep it at home anymore."

Duke pondered deeply.
