Chapter 702: Magic and Research
"But there is one thing that the three sages have mentioned that the orcs will have to recover the remains of the other half of Beamon after they win, and we can ignore this matter, but it would be better if you could deal with it in person." ”
I said, "Do you need me to pretend to be out of Santas?" ”
"That's not what you mean, you just need to stand up and make a public statement, and when the time comes, you can break with the orcs once and for all, but the humans and elves will be interested in you, especially the remains of Beamon in your hands." ”
I said, "Beamon's remains, which I promised you to study, will be shared with you sooner or later, and now I want to know, what did the Angelica sage study?" ”
Ta Ling said: "At present, the first sage has only tested the basic attributes of Beamon's remains, and I will give you a copy of the specific research report." ”
"Alright," I said, "I'll face the orcs on my own, and remember to let me know when the time comes." ”
"No problem," said Taling, "I won't bother you." ”
Leo suddenly said, "By the way, didn't the Iron Water Orb come back?" ”
I said, "Inside the Golden Tooth." ”
Leo said: "Don't take out that thing casually, after all, it is related to the gods, and it is more troublesome than the power of the gods, and then study it slowly in the future, at least get the level of the magister or above." ”
I said, "What about the power of God's kingdom?" Running out of everything? ”
Leo said: "Leave a little bit, but also study it slowly, and don't touch it if the level is not enough now." ”
Next, Leo taught me to "invent" a lot of new things while writing.
Although he said that he wanted to "shock" the entire Mage Tower with these inventions, it seemed that he had already introduced these inventions to the others in the Mage Tower, and the response was very flat.
The only thing that is popular is the earliest paper-making technique, because this kind of paper is relatively white, and some magicians feel that it is clearer to paint, and they do not feel distressed when they are torn......
These inventions took half a month, and they included many aspects -
The first is an improved high-yielding cotton seed, which, combined with Leo's specially invented loom, will be able to put the entire inhabitants of Santas in new clothes in three months. Taling reflected that there was no need for this......
Then there are a number of plants that have been hybridized to increase yields, including staple barley and subspecies of wheat, sweet wild potatoes, and a variety of vegetables. Taling reflected that the magicians didn't care, and I sent it directly to the old gardener, but it would take a while to prove the yield and quality.
The second is an improved building raw material, which is an improved version of the "cement" that Leo has long said, mixed with lime powder, stone powder, lava stone powder, shell powder and other raw materials, and the hardness is indeed very good after solidification, but it is not particularly hard, Taling reflected, the goblins and dwarves of the Tatu Society are interested in studying it, but they also command to study it.
Leo also specifically stated that adding steel before this kind of cement that is not hard enough to solidify will greatly strengthen the building's resistance to blows, and it is also specially equipped with the "iron plus carbon" iron smelting method, which still did not arouse the interest of others, only the dwarves said that they would be concerned......
Again, Leo has created a car that uses magic to start it, and no one needs to pull it, and no one cares about it......
Leo was not discouraged, and said lightly: "Don't worry, if they praise like crazy, it will not be normal unless they are promoted all over the world." ”
At the same time, he wrote the "unified weights and measures" that he had said countless times before into a book, saying: "Only Qin Shi Huang has done such a feat, and today, I have done it!" ”
However, these somewhat awkward units of measurement are indeed a bit difficult to get used to, and it took me a little time to figure out the length units of kilometers, meters, decimeters, centimeters, millimeters, and the extended units of area, volume, volume, and weight, tons, kilograms, grams, milligrams, and hours, minutes, seconds, and measuring temperatures in degrees Celsius......
It's a very hard thing to accept—I've never seen anything so tight since I was a child, including the priests.
"The previous invention was said to be interesting, but this meaningless unit of definition is really a waste of time," Taling said. ”
"If they knew, it wouldn't be fun!" Leo said. ”
I said, "I just want to make it easier for me to do my research......"
By the way, the second, or to be precise, the third person to accept this set of units was Vincent.
Leo quickly mastered the basics of alchemy, helped him refine the talent-enhancing potion, and he successfully joined the Mage Tower and became my assistant, beginning to come into contact with these completely unfamiliar units.
Vincent asked, "Why is it that the pound we commonly use can only be converted into four hundred and fifty-four grams?" Why is a foot more than 30 miles and more than half a centimeter? ”
I said, "You don't have to worry about it, just write it down!" ”
Vincent was obviously reluctant, but he was patient and began to follow me to do this knowledge that was completely deviated from his original spiritual path.
"It's not particularly difficult to learn," Vincent said, "and the question is, can learning these things really increase our strength quickly?" ”
I said, "What do you think of the disparity in strength between us?" ”
Vincent hurriedly said: "I, I'm still far away, although you haven't passed the test of a high-level magician, but I don't think I can hold on to you for a short time......"
I said, "To be exact, you can't last thirty seconds." ”
Vincent said, "Is it because of these new units of measurement that you have the strength to master so many skills at the same time?" ”
I said, "On the contrary, I have so many professional skills that I decided to put them together in a complete system." ”
Vincent finally came to his senses and said, "Then I'm going to learn it quickly!" ”
I said, "Study hard, and you will have unexpected gains." ”
As a result, Vincent learned much faster than I did, and if Leo hadn't explained it for me, I would have been stopped by him sometimes.
If you think about it, Leo was faster than me when he first learned shamanic spells, and now he is faster than me when he learns Leo's magical science......
It seems that I am really not the material for learning.
Or rather, humans are indeed more gifted at learning than we orcs.
Of course, while Taling was concerned, he and the rest of the mage tower had lost interest in my research, and even the Ann Trustee said that I shouldn't waste too much time on these things that had little to do with magic......
I am the one who has seen the High Priests Drogengar and Leo personally attack, and of course I will not be easily moved by them, and at the same time, I see that Vincent occasionally wavers, and I will let Leo show his hands casually to lift Vincent's spirits.
In Leo's words: "When a new thing appears, no matter how knowledgeable and far-sighted the people around us are, they will always try to explain the new thing with the original knowledge system, and then draw ' When they slowly understand, new things will subvert everything they know, whether it is the relationship between alchemy on earth and modern science, or the proposal of Newton's three laws, as well as the theory of relativity and quantum mechanics, the old road that human beings on the earth have walked, the magicians of this world have to go through it again, and then the concept of civilians, this process will take hundreds of years or even longer... I don't doubt your confidence, but I also want to give Vincent a little bit of blood, maybe he will be the standard-bearer to promote the science of magic in the future, and you are the great pioneer......"
I said, "You're giving me chicken blood too, aren't you?" ”
Leo said, "You are different, we have a longer vision than all mortals. ”
I said, "Perhaps, you're actually giving yourself a bloody shot." ”
Leo said: "Alas, less emotion, more hard work. ”
Vincent, who had just been overwhelmed by Leo's magic, was pleasantly surprised, "How long do I need to learn?" Lord Bihon, I've now reduced the cast time from two seconds to one and a half seconds! ”
I said, "Go ahead, compress to within a second." ”
Leo's textbooks were still being written, first with a book called "Basic Arithmetic", then a more complex book called "Simple Arithmetic", and finally a book called "General Arithmetic".
I asked, "Is there still "Difficult Arithmetic"?" ”
Leo said, "No, it's "Intermediate Arithmetic" and "Higher Arithmetic." ”
I said, "Isn't it good to combine these books into one?" ”
Leo said: "This is too thick, and I have a copy of Arithmetic and Graphics behind me, and Ideal and Abstract Arithmetic, which I have not fully mastered, which on earth is affectionately called Algebra and Geometry and Advanced Mathematics......
"Don't talk about it," I said...... "I think I can see why you said you might be in the Mage Tower for three or five years!" ”
Leo said: "On the earth, if you don't learn for ten or twenty years, you can't finish it, don't complain, besides, I will have practical courses such as "Basic Physics and Mechanical Manufacturing" and "Basic Chemistry and Alchemy". ”
I said, "Are you going to write a library yourself?" ”
Leo said: "Anyway, now my brain capacity is comparable to a super-large computer server, of course, the basic theory is the best to complete at one time, maybe it can be used by people in this world for hundreds of years, by the way, if you find it boring, I have prepared some light-hearted books, such as "History", "Geography", "Myths and Legends", "National Customs and Allusions", which you love to read, which is the essence of my extraction from more than 1,000 books......
