Chapter 329: Soul Catcher

"Ahh The sergeants patrolling around gathered here, and the sharp whistles rang out one after another. Ye's workshop is a place that attracts attention all over the world, especially the Yunzhou branch of the Ye's Research Institute, I don't know how many fine works have sharpened their heads and want to drill into it, and whatever happens will not be a trivial matter. However, Kassandra, the director of the Light and Shadow Workshop, soon ran out to explain to everyone: "It's okay...... During the experiment, some people were a little frightened. ”

Everyone was still suspicious, but Kassandra still took the factory's security supervisor into the light and shadow workshop and asked him to make sure that there were no accidents. However, after twisting and turning, he entered the core of the light and shadow workshop, the most sophisticated and mysterious place in Ye's workshop, and even the security supervisor was taken aback. In the separate room, a piece of watery paper hangs. The paper has a white border, and most of the content is black, but in the middle, there is a vague human face. Yes, it's really a human face, but the human face is so blurry that it looks like a ghost. Being able to be a security supervisor in Ye's Workshop, how can he be a battalion-level figure when he is outside, and his courage is naturally not small, but at such a glance, he is still shocked. If you look closely, it's not drawn, it's born on paper.

The head of security took a few steps back, pointed to the ** piece of paper, and asked Kassandra, "That...... What's that? ”

Kassandra had recovered from the horror she had screamed in fright, but now she was too embarrassed to admit it. She said calmly: "We are doing the experiment of Ye Jingluo's arrangement, and this is one of the results...... Don't ask too much. ”

The head of security nodded again and again, and hurriedly took his leave. He has a high right to know, but he doesn't understand technical things after all, and he only knows that the various studies that are being carried out in Ye's Workshop are mostly things that no one can understand except for these people in Ye's Workshop. He didn't want to waste that effort. Since there is a director-level person who tells him not to ask too much, it is naturally better to keep his mouth shut.

Kassandra was promoted to director because of the research she was doing in the light and shadow workshop and the animation projector and other things she had been working on, and since then she has been responsible for the development and production of all optical products in Yip's workshop. Kassandra, the director, said that she was in charge of production, but in fact, the production was still thrown to Qian Shun to take care of, and she devoted herself to a series of projects arranged by Ye Tao, and she never got tired of it.

Due to Ye Tao's direct questioning and guidance, the progress of photography technology is actually very fast. Daguerreotype photography is almost complete, and due to the high cost, it is really just a theoretical guide for everyone to know what photochemical reactions are all about. After that, a large number of experiments carried out by the light and shadow workshop and the alchemy workshop were carried out in cooperation before the formal research began. Silver Salt Photography ...... Ye Tao defines the entire research system in this way, and the more in-depth research he conducts, the more everyone finds that this term defines this technology accurately. In the days when Ye Tao commanded the army to the west, in fact, the workshop has made great progress, such as the preliminary understanding of the design method of the lens group, how to minimize the distortion of the shape, etc., but it still needs a lot of practice to test everyone's ideas, and they have finally made the first magnifier. Being able to enlarge the photograph that was originally limited to the size of the negative to the size they need, naturally, at present, is not very large, that is, the size of one foot square produced this time. And photographic paper with a special paper matrix, at least for now, seems to be theoretically feasible. It's because everyone is not proficient yet, and under the absurdity, the photo that looks good on the four-inch square photo of a chapter is enlarged and put into the paste. Or, there is a problem with the camera or magnifier itself.

And just as Kassandra was experimenting with a strong scientific spirit, gradually improving the design of the camera and the magnifier, and constantly adjusting the recipe of the negatives and photographic paper, a rumor began to spread in Yip's workshop. - Kassandra is a soul slayer.

As soon as Kassandra is dragged into the light workshop, there is a baptism of the soul, and in a blinding flash, the person will take a part of the soul and be transposed into a black and white picture. And this picture will be sealed. Those loyal warriors will be forever commemorated because of this picture; And those villains who betrayed Master Jinglue, Yunzhou and Dongping will be tortured forever because of the preserved picture and the sealed soul in the picture......

In fact, everyone's thoughts affirmed that Kassandra was a good person. Kassandra was originally the name of a famous prophet and priestess in the Western world, and Kassandra has always lived in seclusion, obsessed with technology that others don't understand, and has a deep mystery, this time portrayed as a witch who guards the purity of the soul for the Lord of the Scripture...... But at least she didn't just catch someone and take the soul and torture it.

Kassandra didn't care about the rumors. In fact, according to her understanding, photographic technology does have a similar function. commemorate the heroes, so that future generations have an object to praise; Record the traitors, and bear the eternal spurning of the Hereafter. As for the things that record the landscapes, Kassandra has the impression that it is better to leave them to the painter. However, Kassandra can not care, but the entire Yip workshop will not care. Yip's Workshop is one of the most active places in the world, and it is also one of the places where all kinds of practical talents gather. When such rumors spread, everyone not only began to think, if the "Dementor" Kassandra could really do these things, then wouldn't those of them who thought they were geniuses in every way be heroes? Or, shouldn't everyone keep a soul in the hands of the "dementor" of Lord Jinglu, so as to declare their loyalty to the adults?

As a result, Kassandra suddenly found that in the light and shadow workshop of Yip's workshop, there was a trend of queuing up to take photos. She doesn't care about that. Now, although the light and shadow workshop is still in the stage of trying to explore the photographic technology, each batch of negatives and photographic paper is improving, and the recipe is different, but every time there will be a lot more, it just happens that these people like to take pictures, so let's shoot. Although it is difficult to do research, it is not very difficult for the smart people of Yip's Workshop to just learn to operate the camera, even if it is completely manual. As a result, Yip's Workshop had the first batch of portrait photographers with the exquisite technique of adjusting exposure by measuring the light by eye...... Later, when Ye's workshop popularized badges with photos, almost all of the ID photos of the entire Yunzhou branch were ready-made.

Just when the rumors were spreading at their peak and Kassandra was infinitely deified, Ye Tao finally settled down in Zhenzhou, went home to visit his family, especially the two pregnant women in the family, and then came to Ye's workshop to supervise the research and development of photography technology. Ye Tao is now in a hurry to get out of this technology, because he wants to record the growth of his children, in this regard, there is nothing more accurate and realistic than a camera to capture that moment, and to do this, although he can't get the 135 camera he is most used to playing in later life, at least he has to get a medium-format camera similar to Hasselblad, so that he can barely do work like capturing. To achieve this, in a few months, the light and shadow workshop needs to cross the technical span that has been developed for decades in the history of photography. At that time, Ye Tao directly brought out a whole mature and rich technical system to help everyone watch this world that he loves more and more.

Although Ye Tao left Zhenzhou, there are still more than twenty battalions in the army. The area that Yunzhou's fifty battalions needed to defend seemed to have suddenly doubled, and they suddenly seemed a little stretched. Especially although the losses of Yunzhou in this war were not heavy, the final casualty figure still accumulated close to 40,000. Although about half of them can return to the army one after another, it is the strength of more than ten battalions, which is a very serious matter for Yunzhou, which has only a total of fifty battalions. Although Ye Tao wanted to concentrate on scientific research, as soon as this report arrived, he still flew to Thunder Cliff and conducted another military discussion. What was discussed was the reorganization, replenishment, and expansion of the army. In the end, Ye Tao approved the addition of ten garrison battalions, and accepted the auxiliary soldiers of a total of five battalions of the Invalides Farm and Ranch System as regular establishments, which were later called the Invalids Battalion.

The equipment after the Invalids Camp will be given guidance by the Command, and will be purchased by the Invalides Farm and Ranch System on its own, and it will enjoy the internal procurement price of the Yunzhou regular army. However, the Invalides Camp must remove all soldiers over forty years of age and under the age of fifteen, and soldiers over the age of fifteen are called apprentices in the Invalides Camp. When there is a need to replenish personnel, the armies in Yunzhou give priority to selecting from among the apprentices......

After such changes, Yunzhou's professional military system has become more and more enriched. If those apprentices wanted to become soldiers, they could theoretically be selected by the main battle unit to serve in the battalions at the age of seventeen or eighteen, and theoretically they could serve until the age of thirty to thirty-five, and then they could return to the Invalides camp and serve for another five years with relative ease before finally retiring...... Of course, this is just a theory. Although the people of Yunzhou are warlike, they are not crazy to this point.
