As for the origin of the monster, Anne could not say why, except for some vague information.

She didn't know that the monster experts among the aborigines of the world didn't know, and Rosen was naturally even more blind, and after guessing randomly, he shook his head: "Forget it, it's useless to just guess, let's continue to work." ”

There is no rush in this matter, as long as he keeps this doubt, he will always encounter more clues in the future.

After about half an hour, the two of them packed up everything and found a safe place to rest again by the side of the road.

This is also a sloping land, and there is a large tree at the top of the slope that is hugged by one person. Because it is early winter, the leaves have fallen cleanly, the mud under the trees is very flat, and the surrounding weeds have been deliberately cut, and the view is very open. There are also several piles of campfire ashes left under the tree, and it is clear that many people have rested here.

"That's it." Rosen said.

Soon, the carriage stopped in the clearing under the trees.

Lawson and Anne jumped out of the wagon, gathered some dry branches and weeds under the tree, and soon lit a warm campfire.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk~"

Rosen knocked on the carriage door: "Sister Mary, it's safe outside, come out and breathe." ”

"Hey~ Okay." Miss Mary answered, the door opened, she jumped out of the carriage, and then picked up little Alice in her arms.

Rosen probed again and asked, "Girl, how are your injuries?" Would you like to sit down? ”

The black-haired girl raised her head timidly: "Sister Mary has already helped me bandage my wounds, but there is still some pain." ”

"Oh, then you can get some rest." Lawson reached out to close the door.

"Don't....... I...... I want to get rid of it. The black-haired girl said hesitantly.

"What's going on....... Annie, you're here to help. Rosen greeted.

"Hmm."

Anne answered, and the black-haired girl was picked up from the carriage and walked around to the back of the carriage: "Girl, you are convenient here, it is not safe to stay away." ”

Rosen naturally didn't take a peek obscenely, he walked to the campfire and sat down, beckoned to little Alice, and asked softly, "Were you scared just now?" ”

"No, my brother is here, I'm not afraid." Little Alice shook her head. She looked curiously at the spiral troll on Rosen's waist: "Brother, this weapon is so powerful, can I touch it?" ”

"Of course." Lawson untheathed his weapon and handed it over.

Alice gently touched the cold metal shell and asked in a low voice, "Brother, the energy conversion method of this weapon is to convert chemical energy into kinetic energy, right?" ”

"That's right." Lawson nodded.

"It's really cleverly structured." Little Alice's eyes lit up, and after touching it for a while, she asked again: "Brother, if you are not an alchemist, can you make such a weapon?" ”

"Of course." Rosen touched little Alice's soft hair: "As long as you follow your brother to learn knowledge." ”

Little Alice clenched her fists and waved hard: "Well, I must study hard!" ”

As soon as she finished speaking, a timid voice came from the side: "Big ...... My lord, can ordinary people without talent really build alchemy weapons? ”

Rosen looked up and saw the black-haired girl walking back with Annie in her arms, although she was not in good spirits, she looked serious, and it was obvious that she was interested in Rosen's words.

Rosen didn't feel any different, he had been in this world for more than a month, and he knew a lot about the situation in this world.

He knew that what he had just said would surprise anyone with a little insight to hear. And judging from the demeanor and outfit of this black-haired girl, she must be well-educated, and naturally she will feel that Rosen's words are contrary to common sense.

He smiled and said, "Girl......"

"My name is Irene."

"Oh~ Miss Irene, don't call me Lord, just call me Lawson. You seem to be in good spirits, and if your fitness allows, we can have a casual chat. Rosen laughed.

Erin nodded, "It's a great honor." ”

Anne helped her to sit a meter away next to Rosen, and she herself sat between Rosen and Erin.

After sitting down, Erin couldn't wait to ask, "Mr. Rosen, you just said that ordinary people can also build alchemy weapons, is this true?" ”

Rosen nodded: "In fact, I think that all intelligent beings, even monsters, as long as they can accept the habits of rational and logical thinking, instead of killing with their heads, then they will not only be able to build alchemy weapons, but may even master the mysteries of alchemy and become an alchemy master." ”

Erin was stunned, in fact, it was not only her, but Anne, Mary, and even John the coachman.

They had all just experienced the terrifying power of alchemy, and now Rosen said that everyone could learn and even master this great alchemy power, and they couldn't help but be moved.

"Really?" Erin was skeptical.

Rosen laughed, "I don't have to lie. ”

Erin was visibly unconvinced: "Mr. Rosen, I used to study at Nilogaard Academy for a while, and I was also very interested in alchemy. However, the professors of the academy unanimously agreed that to become an alchemist, talent is the first thing, and without the support of talent, everything is in the air. My own experience of studying alchemy is a perfect confirmation of this idea...... Mr. Rosen, I'm not trying to question you, just ...... It's just that your remarks are a bit ...... It's a bit ........"

As she spoke, the black-haired girl looked serious, as if she was facing a serious academic debate.

"Shocking?" Rosen asked.

"Yes, it's shocking...... I know it's rude to say that, but I beg your pardon, I can't find a better word. Erin looked apologetic.

Looking at the way Erin spoke, Rosen's heart moved: 'Be polite, talk a lot of nonsense, and the last word of each sentence has a faint small tongue sound, which is a typical upper-class way of speaking. This Irene, not only is she well-educated, but she should also be a descendant of some nobleman. ’

These thoughts flashed through his mind, and he also knew that this girl seemed to be polite, but she had already been involved with him, and if she didn't argue tonight, she probably wouldn't give up.

This kind of academic debate is what Rosen likes the most. When he was on Earth, he liked to discuss various issues with his colleagues, and sometimes the two sides would even quarrel, but more often they would find something new in the heated discussions.

Seeing that the other party was going to war, Rosen habitually was in good spirits.

After a few seconds of silence, Lawson picked up a small pebble from the dirt and threw it lightly into the distance, and the pebble flew in an arc in the sky, and finally landed on the ground a few meters away.

He pointed to the stone and asked, "Miss Irene, I wonder if you have ever studied mathematics?" ”

Erin's eyes lit up slightly, and her expression became more and more focused: "A little dabbling." ”

Rosen asked, "Then let me ask you, how should I describe the curve of such a stone flying in the sky in mathematical language?" ”

"This .......," Erin was stunned, her brow furrowed, and she fell into thought, and after a while, she was picking up a stone again, and writing and drawing on the dirt floor, and after five or six minutes, she still did not get an answer.

Rosen looked at the lines on the dirt floor and knew that the girl named Erin did not know the cross coordinate system, nor did she know the concept of functions, nor did she know the parabola, nor did she know Newton's three laws of motion. In fact, she was making blind gestures on the dirt floor, and even if she cut through the ground, she would not get an answer.

He smiled faintly, "Miss Erin, you can't find the answer, can you?" ”

Erin bit her lower lip tightly, her cheeks flushed, and she shook her head, "My math skills are too shallow...... But I don't understand, what's the use of that? ”

"What's the use?" Rosen laughed and said to Anne, "My friend, explain it to this young lady." ”

Anne smiled slightly, she stayed with Rosen this month, and the biggest gain was to understand the parabola, and then said: "If you know how to describe this curve, then you can accurately predict the landing point of the boulder thrown by the trebuchet with the help of the tool of number." In this way, the trebuchet can hit the designated target. You say, is this useful in battle? ”

"Use mathematics to accurately predict ..... Predicting where the boulder will fall? "Erin has the feeling of being refreshed.

Rosen laughs, "In this kind of simple question, I prefer to use the word 'calculation'. ”

Erin's mind was a little unturned: "Wait, wait, Mr. Rosen, I admit that what you said makes sense, but what does this have to do with what you said before that ordinary people master alchemy?" ”

Rosen said, "Miss Irene, let me ask you, is mathematics something that everyone can learn?" ”

"Well~~ As long as you have a good education, you should be able to learn, even if you can't become a master, at least you can get started." Erin replied conservatively.

Lawson reached out and patted the spiral troll in his hand, and said with a smile: "Then, my weapon is actually a small, easy-to-carry trebuchet." The difference is that my trebuchet does not throw stones, but small iron balls, which are faster and more accurate. ”

"Cast ...... Trebuchet? "Erin couldn't turn around.

"Yes, the basic principle is exactly the same." Rosen nodded, then asked rhetorically, "Miss Erin, do you think ordinary people can understand the principle of trebuchet?" ”

Erin nodded: "Of course you can, otherwise how would those craftsmen be able to build trebuchets?" ”

Rosen asked, "You see, my weapon is made of iron, and it requires the skill of smelting metal." I ask you, can ordinary people master the art of smelting metals? ”

"When...... Of course, the blacksmiths can do it. ”

Rosen patted his thigh lightly: "Since ordinary people can master mathematics, make trebuchets, and smelt metal, they already have the basic conditions for making this weapon, as long as they explore a lot, they can create a similar weapon." Maybe it's not as powerful as mine, but as long as you explore a lot and keep improving, you can one day reach or even surpass the level of this weapon. Then you say, can ordinary people master alchemy? ”

Erin froze, she sat there motionless like a statue, and it was a long time before she spoke, "Mr. Rosen, what you said is true?" ”

"I don't think a lie can be used as an argument to convince an opponent in a serious discussion, right?" Rosen spread his hands.

Erin was silent again.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Lawson knew that she had been convinced, but he didn't feel a sense of accomplishment in his heart.

It's not that the debate itself is boring, it's that the opponent is too weak, and the opponent fell before he made a big move on his side, which is really boring, not interesting at all.

Maybe I won't find an opponent in this world. Hey, it's lonely in the heights. Rosen shook his head slightly, turned to little Alice and said, "Are you tired today?" If you're tired, go to bed early. ”

"Okay, brother."

Rosen handed little Alice over to Sister Mary, and the two daughters went back to the carriage to rest.

"Miss Irene, it's time for you to rest, too." Anne stood up.

"Huh?" Erin seemed to be taken aback, and it took a long time for her to come back to her senses, but she was still a little absent-minded: "Okay, thank you very much." ”

Her mind kept echoing Rosen's words, she felt herself being helped up, and then she was carried into the carriage, and before, she would take the opportunity to carefully observe the situation around her, but now, she didn't care at all, she kept thinking about what Rosen had just said and the tone of expression when he spoke.

'Chemical energy into kinetic energy?' What does that mean?'

'Can everyone learn alchemy?' ’

When he spoke, he looked down with condescension, as if he had the truth in his hands, how much did he know? ’

'Nine times out of ten, he killed him, at least he has the ability!' ’
