Chapter 91: The Scholars' Rivers and Lakes

Binglin's idea is very simple - if you get Tara Khan's collar in hand, you can get enough resources, and you will no longer have to worry about lack of money and materials for scientific research, and second, if you have achieved scientific research in the future, you will also have a ready-made "test field".

Although he is a scientific researcher, he also knows the truth of being a human being. Since I want to get a piece of the big cake of Tara Khan's collar in the future - considering the cost of scientific research, I am afraid that this piece is not small - of course, I have to get out of the ivory tower and come to work hard in this rolling red dust.

At the end of the day, there is still a lack of money.

Out of the ivory tower, I stepped into the rivers and lakes. Even though there is a general harmony between the traversers, there are no dirty things such as intrigue. But some people have grievances, and if there are grievances, there are rivers and lakes. For example, the first problem that soldiers face is how to improve their status in the team.

If your performance is not outstanding enough, and your status is not important enough, why should others give you a special share of the benefits?

Although everyone knows the truth that "what is hard cannot be bitter for children, and what is poor cannot be poor for education", the gap between "not poor" and "rich" is understood by fools.

Just like a scientific research institute in reality, some of them rely on a little funding to produce results like a snail, and it takes ten or twenty years to produce results; some have a lot of money and don't care even if they fail, and they can make a big news every two or three years. But whoever does scientific research, who doesn't want the latter?

But if you want to have that status, you must have a performance worthy of that status.

So, how do you behave?

Binglin thought about it, but after all, the ideal still couldn't fight the reality, so he had no choice but to take the old path of the magician production department and make magic equipment.

But he did have something to pursue, and this pursuit is reflected in his works.

The magical equipment he made was completely different from the one made by Sleepless. The Sleepless Magic Outfit focuses on maximizing the advantages of the equipment itself according to the size and material of the equipment, and pays attention to a "making the best use of things";

These two techniques are very different, and the equipment they produce is also very different. The equipment made by Sleepless is exquisite and ingenious, not only stable and reliable, but also very beautiful in appearance, which can be said to be a fusion of technology and art. The equipment made by Binglin was rough and straightforward, with no aesthetic decoration on the outside, and no stability and reliability on the inside—in his opinion, no matter how advanced the magic equipment, it was just a consumable after all. For consumables, as long as the demand can be met at the time of consumption, there is no need to care about the rest. It is too extravagant to waste time and energy to make consumables perfect or beautiful.

This is the routine of big industry, which reflects the characteristics of his engineering student.

Just like this time he asked the panda to take the bracelet to test the waters, with his ability, if he spends more time and energy, and uses more materials, he can completely enchant the weapon several times a day. But in his opinion, one of the life-and-death fights that an adventurer needs every day is almost enough. If you fight several times in a row, you will be exhausted and even injured. In this state, even if the weapon is enchanted with fire, can it change the outcome of defeat?

So it was enough for him to make the bracelet enchant once a day, and he didn't plan to spend more time, energy, and materials at all.

If it was sleepless, it would be the exact opposite, and he would spend a little more time, energy, and materials so that the bracelet could be enchanted several more times a day, even if it wasn't needed.

Ordinary people can't see this, but he knows it himself, and he knows it even if he wants to sleepless.

There is a conflict of ideas between two skilled magicians.

The panda was not born with a seven-trick exquisite heart, and he couldn't see the meaning of the soldier's intentional or unintentional struggle with Sleepless. He was only secretly happy, happy that everyone had one more source of equipment.

Bing Lin took the cold iron scimitar and left, and if this thing fell into his hands, there would only be one end, that is, he would dismantle it and use it to make something else.

Perhaps Sleepless will try to modify this knife and make it a true divine weapon, but Binglin will not. For him, there is nothing to cherish except for people, he can use it when it should be used, consume it when it should be consumed, and he will not feel distressed at all.

Panda returns to the makeshift mansion and uses the power of magic to project Erica's image.

"Are you sure this ordinary bard has a demonic aura on him?" Looking at the video, many people found it unbelievable - how could that bard not see even the slightest bit of femininity!

Panda nodded: "I'm a holy warrior anyway, this kind of thing, it's impossible to make a mistake." ”

So the image was copied several times, almost everyone had one copy, and they remembered it firmly.

In the days that followed, as they moved around the city of Tarakhan, they consciously or unconsciously searched for the bard in the image. However, this person has never left the city, and has been active in the city all the time, which makes everyone frown.

So someone suggested that you should try to trick him out of the city and kill him?

After careful deliberation, the proposal was finally rejected.

For them, the main goal is to lead the Count into a trap and eliminate them. As for the fraudster Erica...... It's good to be able to do it, but there's no way to do it, and it's not worth sabotaging the achievement of the main goal for this.

In the end, they left only the personnel who routinely monitored the city of Tarakhan, and did nothing else.

Inside the makeshift accommodation, Erica slowly opened her eyes and let out a long breath.

The sense of crisis that had always been entrenched in her heart has weakened.

Since arriving in the city of Tarakhan, she has had a good time, living here as a wandering bard, shuttling through the streets and alleys every day, gathering all kinds of news, just like a real bard would do.

The situation in Tara Khan City was actually very familiar to her, because she had been lurking here for a while before. But when she lurked this time, she found that the atmosphere of Tara Khan was very different from before, and she felt more nervous, with an atmosphere of "mountain rain is coming and the wind is full of buildings".

Of course, it is impossible for the adventurers to know the plans of both the traverser and the earl, but many of them have a keen sense and can vaguely sense the aura of danger. As a result, many of the adventurers were a little nervous and depressed, and many of them left Tarakhan City directly, intending to return after the atmosphere eased.

Erica wasn't worried about this atmosphere, but since one day, she suddenly had a strong sense of crisis, like a frog being targeted by a snake, and even felt like she couldn't move.

At first, she thought she had been discovered, but after some observation, she realized that there was no such thing at all.

Could it be that the whole city of Tarakhan is in danger?

With anticipation and apprehension, she waited for several days, but what she waited for was that the sense of crisis weakened.

"What the hell is going on, what is going on, happening when I don't know it?" said Erica to herself.

At that moment, she saw several very sturdy carriages on the street outside the hotel, surrounded by dozens of heavily armed guards, hurrying out of the door.

Erica put aside the doubts in her heart and smiled coldly.

"You can't help it!" she whispered, "let me see what the hell you're trying to do this time!"
