Chapter 4: Krypton's Pseudo-Scholar
Three months later.
Heart-to-heart moments for dinner.
Lisa glanced at Jack, Jack put down the knife and fork in his hand, coughed lightly, and smiled at Owen, who looked a little dazed: "Owen, have you been busy with schoolwork lately?"
"It's fine. ”
Owen came back to his senses and looked at Jack in surprise, "What's wrong, Uncle Jack?"
"Oh, nothing. ”
Jack pondered: "I'm afraid that you study too hard, I came back late at night a few times, and saw that the lights in your room were still on, and I heard your Aunt Lisa say, you are studying hard, you are only in the seventh grade, don't work so hard, pay more attention to your body." ”
"yes, Owen. ”
Lisa chimed in, "You're still young, it's time to grow your body, and you need plenty of sleep. ”
"Yes, yes. ”
Elizabeth, a happy scumbag, muttered: "You studied well, but now you are working harder than before, and you have hurt me several times...... Are you going to be a scientist in the future?"
Owen heard what Elizabeth didn't finish, Elizabeth, who was already 17 years old, like most high school girls in the United States, did everything possible to go to various night parties, Owen is now reading hard late at night, which attracted the attention of Lisa and Jack at the same time, but also made it more difficult for Elizabeth to sneak out at night to play.
Elizabeth took the opportunity to complain slightly, which is already very restrained, you know, in the self-proclaimed feminist United States, girls sometimes play more crazy than boys, and the hormones of young girls are not balanced, but it is a very terrible thing!
"Yes. ”
Owen nodded affirmatively: "I do plan to be a scientist in the future, or to be precise, I plan to be a mathematician in the future." ”
"Are you serious?"
Elizabeth was stunned, she just said it casually, she didn't expect Owen to really have this idea.
"Is it related to Sheldon Lee Cooper?"
Bianca said the key.
"Yes. ”
Owen didn't deny it, and said with a smile: "I didn't think it before, but since I became friends with Sheldon, I realized that science is so interesting, and the ocean of knowledge is intoxicating." ”
"You're not kidding, are you?"
Elizabeth's eyes widened and she exclaimed in disbelief: "I thought you wouldn't be able to stand that eccentric genius, I didn't expect you to be influenced by him and take such a big interest in boring science, oh my God, you'll have no girlfriend in the future......"
The corners of Owen's mouth were bitter, speechless.
"Elizabeth!"
Lisa interrupted Elizabeth's complaints, looked sideways at Owen, and said softly, "Owen, are you sure? ”
Jack continued: "But scientists are not so easy to be, although Elizabeth's words are a bit excessive, but they are not unreasonable, those children who are determined to be scientific need to spend a lot of time studying, so they are often very unsociable......"
Speaking of this, seeing Bianca looking at it unhappily, Jack suddenly thought that his baby daughter was going to study medicine in the future, and in terms of learning time, doctors are no worse than scientists.
So he hurriedly changed his words and said with a smile: "Of course, these are not certain, there are also people who focus on learning, and life is also very exciting, it all depends on personal choice." ”
Bianca gave Jack a sweet smile.
"Ahem. ”
Jack made a false alarm, coughed lightly, and continued: "When it comes to the ambition of this scientist, the most important thing is not that you need to spend a lot of time studying, but that you don't have enough intelligence, and no matter how much time you invest, it won't have much effect, Owen, do you understand?"
"I understand. ”
Owen nodded heartily, how could he not understand......
Three months ago, he and Sheldon became friends, but as soon as they chatted, he felt the deep malice from the genius scholars, Sheldon casually said rocket science, nuclear fission equations or something, listening to Owen's ears, it was all gibberish, the whole process was confused, and the embarrassment of capitalization almost made Owen unable to stay.
However, the friendship of Sheldon and others is the key to Owen's point of existence, and if you want to obtain the friendship of Sheldon and others, so as to further enhance the degree of friendship, a scientific tyrant is a necessary condition.
To borrow Penny's words when she got her Ph.D. at Bernadette, she pointed to everyone and quipped Howard: "You're a doctor, you're a doctor...... Wow, Howard, you know a lot of PhDs. ”
Howard could only smile helplessly, although he was a genius engineer who graduated from MIT and an astronaut who had been to heaven, but his master's degree was joked and complained about by everyone from beginning to end, because five of the seven-member group were doctors.
If Penny is not the protagonist's luck, she is set as the woman that Leonard is obsessed with, with her as a scumbag, and Sheldon and his gang are completely people from two worlds.
For example, Stewart, who opened a comic shop, also has a bachelor's degree, and has been mixed with Sheldon for more than ten years, trying every possible way to find a sense of existence, but in the end he did not succeed in integrating into Sheldon's small group, above friends, and not yet good friends, to borrow Sheldon's disgusted words: "Stuart and our aura do not match." ”
Why not?
Because Stuart is not a scientist, and there is no way to use his girlfriend identity to fit in like Penny, the only way may be to pair up with Rajesh, a single dog, and it seems that the two really have a vague temptation......
If Owen doesn't want to follow Stewart's old path, the only choice is to do his best to become a scientist, and to change to an ordinary person, this is definitely an impossible task, because intelligence is a talent, and it is basically determined at birth, but fortunately, Owen has an American drama system, which can improve attribute points through krypton.
When Owen took stock of his situation, he naturally spent 50 existence points, and improved his intelligence from lv3 to lv4 talented.
It's not that Owen doesn't want to raise his intelligence to the genius lv5 at once, but he really doesn't have that much lifespan to consume, and to raise to lv5-level, it needs to consume 50 existence points, and to raise it to lv5 again, it needs to consume 50 existence points.
In this way, from LV3 to LV5+ like Sheldon at one time, Owen needs to consume 200 points, and now Owen only has a total of 88 points, after deducting 50 points from these 88 points, Owen's points are only 38 points, and if there is no follow-up supplement, Owen can only live for 38 years.
In this case, how could Owen not empathize with the supremacy of talent in Jack's mouth, and feel a little bit of concern, his krypton life lv4 has natural intelligence, and with hard work, he can barely be a pseudo-academic bully.
