A month later.

Between the mountains and mountains in the central and western part of the Star Federation.

A "killer whale"-class transport ship emitted a colorful streamer, dragging a long tail flame, slowly skimming through the blue sky, heading towards the depths of the 100,000 mountains.

Inside the transport ship, Li Yao looked at the contract happily and whistled with relief.

It's finally finalized!

Large-scale refining of magic weapons is not a trivial matter, although both sides sincerely want to cooperate, but when it comes to specific matters, there is still a lot of tedious work to deal with.

In the past half a month, Li Yao has made slight changes to the structure and rune array of the demon beast detector, mainly from the perspective of reducing costs.

Because many algorithms and symbolic arrays have been invented in the last ten or twenty years, and they are still within the patent protection period.

It is not much for study and research, but if you want to make a profit from large-scale refining, you have to negotiate with the inventor and pay a certain royalty.

The solution is to find a way to replace it with the runic arrays and algorithms that were invented thirty or fifty years ago.

These arrays and algorithms have passed the patent protection period and can be used by anyone.

Of course, not all symbols and algorithms can be replaced, and for some irreplaceable keys, it is up to the business personnel sent by Shanhai to negotiate with the inventor.

In addition, if you want to refine the Demon Beast ≧ ↗ Detector on a large scale, the crystal eye is an indispensable component, and it is too cost-effective to purchase it from the market at a retail price.

Although the Shanhai Sect is unable to refine the crystal eye on its own, there are also some partners who are refining sects and have the ability to refine high-performance crystal eyes.

They have reached a strategic cooperation agreement with one of them, and they can purchase crystal eye at cost price at a relatively low price.

And the job that Li Yao has to do is to fine-tune the refining process. With this new model of crystal eye, he replaced the "Super Falcon" level crystal eye of the Holy Light Gate that he had previously used.

After completing this work, he also personally went to the Shanhai Sect.

On the one hand, it is to investigate the refining technology and production scale of the Shanhai School, and on the other hand, it is also to work with Jiang Wenbo to transform the assembly line originally used to refine Lingzi watches.

For the transformation project of the Tongguò Tai'a type refining furnace, Jiang Wenbo was a hundred reassuring about Li Yao's "magic reform" technology. Many key parts were handed over to him to be responsible.

And the people in the Shanhai Sect who originally had some complaints about Li Yao were also speechless after seeing his crazy refining techniques and transformation ideas, and they were full of confidence in the Demon Beast Detector Project!

After almost a month of busyness, the obstacles in refining were finally smashed, and after a series of bargaining, the two sides also finalized the final contract, and the more critical ones were:

First, Li Yao was exclusively authorized to the Shanhai faction. The power to refine the monster detector in large quantities, and promised not to delegate it to the second sect for three years.

Second, Li Yao still has the patent right for the monster detector, and it can be refined on a small scale for research or sale, as long as the output does not exceed one per day, and a clear mark is engraved on the monster detector, so as to distinguish it from the monster detector refined by the Shanhai faction.

Three. Shanhaipai promises that in the next three years. No less than 50,000 demon beast detectors have been refined, and for every demon beast detector sold, the profits will be divided into three or seven accounts, 30% for Li Yao and 70% for Shanhai faction.

Fourth, Li Yao provides technical support. Once a follow-up model is developed, Shanhaipai will enjoy the right of priority cooperation under the same conditions.

Li Yao is still very satisfied with this contract.

He also went to the market to learn about this model of not transferring patent rights, but only authorizing exclusive production. Generally, the share ratio given to the patent owner is 20% at most.

Although the technology is his, but the cultivation sect has to pay money, production equipment, and marketing networks, hundreds of people are busy with this project, and there is a risk of losing money, and it is not too much to take away seventy or eighty percent.

And in Li Yao's plan, his ambition is more than just such a little bit, what's the point of splitting one or two points with the Shanhai faction?

The first generation of monster detectors is just the beginning, and he will develop more detectors with advanced functions and great powers in the future.

If the first generation sells well, we will talk about it slowly.

His gaze fell to the bottom of the contract, and underneath his signature was a very strange mark.

A small five-pointed star, but with an open grin, the corners of the mouth are hooked, as if it is smiling evilly.

This is the exclusive mark that Li Yao designed for himself.

Each alchemist has a very unique imprint, engraved on the magic weapon they refine, which is both an identity symbol and a special advertisement.

A magic weapon with very ordinary functions, as long as it is refined by the master refiner himself and engraved with the exclusive mark of the master refiner, it will immediately be worth a hundred times and become a treasure that is sought after.

This little star with a wicked smile, Li Yao named it "Demon Star".

He decided—

In the future, if it is on the battlefield where flesh and blood are flying, the nickname "vulture" will be used to break through.

On the battlefield, it's about who is stronger, more ferocious, and more fearless of death.

The nickname of vulture, when you hear it, you are a ruthless person, and one day, even the demon king and demon emperor of the blood demon world will tremble when they hear it.

And in the circle of refiners, it is inappropriate to use such a murderous nickname as "vulture", and it doesn't sound like a good kind when you hear it!

Therefore, in the refiner circle, his nickname is "Demon Star", haha, "Demon Star Master", this name is good!

"Buzz!"

The killer whale transport shuddered slightly, and its speed began to slow down.

Among the surrounding passengers, there was a slightly nervous chatter.

Li Yao smiled, put away the light curtain, and instantly left the matter of the demon beast detector behind.

Now he has something more important to attend to - the Registered Alchemist exam!

Li Yao's gaze looked out through the crystal porthole.

However, I saw lush mountains and mountains, surrounded by several large basins.

In the basin, there are countless silver-white towns, shining in the sun.

These towns, located in the 100,000 mountains of the central and western part of the Federation, are all military cities, consisting of a series of arsenals, military bases, and research institutes for the magic of war, which are the last line of defense of mankind.

At the beginning of the founding of the Xingyao Federation, the situation was far from being as stable as it is now, the eastern part of the federation was ravaged by the East Pole Demon Kingdom, and the great wilderness in the north was a paradise for demon beasts.

Many people are worried that the tide of beasts in the Great Wilderness will converge into a sea of demon beasts, breaking through the defense line of human beings in a way that destroys the world and destroys the world, all the way to the south, sweeping the land of the southeast.

And the mountains in the central and western part of the Federation are the last base for the counterattack.

Therefore, the Star Shine Federation has spent hundreds of years building in the 100,000 mountains of the Midwest.

Countless mountains have been hollowed out and turned into huge arsenals; Tens of thousands of underground karst caves continue to be explored, deepened, and communicated, turning into intricate underground shelters; Countless soldiers and their families have lived here, and from generation to generation, they have evolved into a military family, waiting for the final battle to come!

Registered refiners are divided into more than a dozen different categories, and Li Yao applied for the C-category, that is, the small military direction.

The refiners in this direction mainly refine swords, guns and auxiliary magic weapons for individual use, and the pinnacle of their profession is the "armorer" who can refine crystal armor!

Because it involves a large number of weapons design and testing, the registered refiner examination in the small military direction will be arranged in major military bases every year.

After drawing lots, Li Yao was drawn to the No. 19 examination room set up at the 8734 military base.

"Wow, it's spectacular!"

The transport ship climbed over a hill, and the 8734 military base was close in sight.

This is a very large-scale military base, with a large number of super-heavy magic weapons arranged on the periphery, many crystal magnetic cannons are as tall as several floors, and the spiritual energy guide rail is thicker than Li Yao's waist.

With one shot, the power can be imagined.

Before he landed, the hundreds of hedron chariots neatly arranged on the ground dazzled Li Yao.

Although they are all relatively old models, as soon as the number goes up, the group charge that launches an overwhelming mountain still looks majestic and awe-inspiring, and even Li Yao, who is thousands of meters away, can feel the killing intent.

The transport ship landed slowly, and candidates from several towns in the Great Wilderness rushed out, escorted by a team of soldiers, to the front of a silver-white giant building that looked like an upside-down giant egg.

After checking their identities, their private crystal brains were handed over to the military for temporary safekeeping, and they were replaced with a special crystal brain for the registered refiner exam.

Li Yao walked into the silver-white "Dome".

Among the metal eggshells shrouded like a dome of heaven is a majestic hall that can accommodate tens of thousands of people.

A red frame is drawn in the center and blocked with a defensive talisman array.

This is the examination room for the first exam.

The Registered Alchemist Examination is divided into a preliminary examination, a re-examination and a final examination.

The preliminary examination is a written test, and the examination is theoretical, which is extremely difficult, and more than half of the people will be brushed off in the preliminary examination.

Thousands of candidates from dozens of towns and cities gathered in the hall.

There are also many candidates who are coming one after another.

Because it is a national exam, it is difficult to allocate time, and many candidates wait here several hours in advance.

Therefore, around the hall, there are many special rest areas to provide exquisite food.

And in the special crystal brain for the exam, there are also mock test papers.

Candidates can eat and drink enough in the rest area to recuperate; You can also make a last-minute sprint.

Looking at the time, there is still an hour and a half before the start of the first test.

Li Yaoxin walked to a rest area, ready to relieve the fatigue of the journey.

Unexpectedly, before he sat down, he heard his name from the mouths of two whispering candidates behind him.

"You know what? Our 19th exam room, but the most special one of all the exam rooms, there are two different candidates, who will take the exam here. ”

"One is the genius newcomer of Deep Sea University, Jiang Shaoyang, who has the title of 'tenth star'."

"The other one is Li Yao!" (To be continued......)
