Chapter 51: Press Conference
After a day of hard learning the ancient elves, Jack relied on the dictionary and finally barely understood the content of the book, in the first ring, the time school has two runes and three structures to learn, the first rune is [ftd], which is used to slow down the time flow of one or more objects, and the second rune is [fth], which is used to speed up the time flow of one or more objects. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
As for the three structures, the first structure is used to regulate the effect of the rune, the second structure is to determine the object of the action of the timekeeping structure, and the third structure is to determine the time of action of the rune (the timekeeping structure).
These two runes can only have an effect on inanimate objects, and the book gives two exemplary one-ring spells, the first is [Preservation Technique], which seems to be able to keep food fresh for two days at a very small magical cost. This elaborate one-ring spell shows Jack what it means to be "energy efficient", in addition to the rune [FTD], it has a lot of magic structures that Jack is completely unknown to Jack and another target rune [O].
Another ring spell is the Orbital Acceleration, an arcane spell that accelerates the flow of time in an orbit and thus "accelerates" the items within it, and the ancient elves used this spell to give their arrows unbeatable speed.
Naturally, this [Orbital Acceleration] reminds Jack of his pistol, if he can solve the transformation spell and adapt this spell to the gun, then his bullets will be able to have the speed that no one can dodge?
The advent of the Arcane of Time opened up Jack's brain, and with these runes, he might be able to make a time bomb, he could also make grenades that detonate at an accurate time, and he could also increase the rate of fire of his guns and increase the speed at which they automatically reloaded...... A lot of brain holes can be realized, as long as he can eat this knowledge thoroughly.
For the next two days, Jack's goal is to complete the time bomb and the grenade that allows him to control time freely.
Of course, no invention comes out of nowhere, and even if Jack had an idea and an intelligent brain, he wouldn't have been able to accomplish his goal in just two days. In the past two days, he only fully understood the specific effect of the two runes and the structure, and tried a few more imaginary schemes, and then, although he wanted to continue the experiment, he had to dress up and walk out of the gate of the manor with Tifa to the Lusidden Hotel in the center of the city.
Standing in the doorway of the three-story building, which backed away from the town hall, Jack paused to observe the décor of the Lusidon Grand Hotel. Today, his book launch will be held in this splendid but elegant and unobtrusive hotel, and as the original author of the book "Earth and the Past", he should be present at this book launch.
"Having chartered the Lusidden Hotel, it seems that the Ableheim Winter newspaper is very confident in their upcoming book!"
"Isn't that a matter of course, I heard that this book was snatched from the mouth of the Crescent Newspaper by the Cold Winter Newspaper, a masterpiece that the two big newspapers competed for, tsk, I can't help but want to read it. ”
Two men who looked like wealthy businessmen who walked past Jack talked excitedly.
"I hope that this cold winter newspaper will not be blind again. A nobleman walked past Jack with his head held high.
"The works that both newspapers are optimistic about should be unique, dear. Holding the nobleman's female companion, he whispered.
A smile curled into a smile on Jack's lips, this book launch invited the nobles and wealthy merchants of Ash City, judging from the reactions of these people, they are all looking forward to his book, and Jack believes that he will not let them down, because what he writes is a completely empty world, a new world that the people of Etletta can never imagine without seeing it with their own eyes.
The sunset on the horizon gradually ended, and the flickering lights and shadows slowly enveloped the Ash City.
"What's wrong, Jack?" asked, perhaps strangely at Jack's sudden pause, Tifa, who had also changed into an evening gown, tucked her flowing black hair back of her head.
"It's okay, Tifa, just a little bit expectant. ”
"Looking forward to the glory that is coming?"
"No, just expecting the money we're going to make. ”
"Really. Tifa glanced at Jack, as if disdainful of his vulgarity.
But Jack just chuckled and didn't refute, just raised his left hand and let Tifa pull it up: "Let's go." ”
Tifa smiled helplessly and nodded.
The two walked in and found George Lumani, the editor-in-chief of the Winter's branch in Ash City.
"Oh, look who's coming, Mr. Scarlett!" said the fat man, who seemed to be rounded again, called Jack's name in a surprised voice.
George trotted up to Jack with his chubby body, first bowed his head slightly and shook Jack's hand—because Jack was an earl, George needed to be respectful, and then the fat man gave Jack a warm hug. The smell of perfume tickled Jack's nose, but he was too embarrassed to stop the enthusiastic George—that would be too rude.
"Good evening, Mr. Maruni. ”
"Good evening, ah, Mr. Scarlet, it's Lumani, not Maruni. George smiled without embarrassment and changed the subject in a well-fashioned manner, "Who is this beautiful lady?"
"She's my girlfriend tonight, Tifa. Jack wasn't embarrassed, because he had just made a mistake on purpose.
"Tifa, Tifa Lockhart. Tifa nodded gracefully and introduced herself with a smile.
"It's Miss Lockhart, and you look like a goddess. ”
"You've won a prize. ”
A few people exchanged a few polite words, but George suddenly thanked Jack and congratulated him.
"Anyway, personally, thank you so much, Mr. Scarlett. Also, I want to congratulate you!"
"What happened all of a sudden?"
"Because you have created such a good work, I have kept my job, and when I showed your book to the president of our Winter Newspaper, oh, our president is also a cardinal of the goddess of literature. Guess what he said?"
Seeing the fat man squeezing his eyebrows in front of him, Jack couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and said cooperatively:
"What did he say?"
He said, "Fantasy is more realistic than reality, reality is more bizarre than fantasy, I love this book, not only me, but all people who love literature will love it, even the goddess loves it." 】”
"What does that mean, can you put it simply, in words that I can understand?"
"Our president told me that the goddess of literature intends to give you the title. Your book will go all over the world and leave a name in the long history, simply put, you will soon be famous on the mainland. ”
"That is......" Jack blinked.
"That is to say......" the fat man blinked in the same cooperation.
"How much money I'm going to make?"
"You're going to be a great writer!"
After the two shouted at the same time, George was stunned and looked at Jack a little blankly.
Jack tilted his head and asked, "Did I say something wrong?"
"Can you not be so realistic? Don't let the smell of copper pollute art, Mr. Scarlett. George's fat face was full of regret, as if he had met the "death" of a great writer.
But Jack really didn't care at all, he sneered, and said:
"Only when you have enough to eat can you have art at all! Really, don't talk to me about art, it hurts a lot of money to talk about art!"
As a creator, Jack is tsundere.
