Lu Qi and the others left the palace, got into a carriage, and set off in the direction of the scientific research institute.

The carriage drove for a while, and after about thirty minutes, it slowly stopped.

Lu Qi was the first to get out of the carriage, and then he saw the base of the scientific research institute, which is a building that occupies a large area, with a unique style, and has a few branches of labor.

There were also guards guarding the gate, and when they saw that it was Luqi, they saluted respectfully.

One of the guards asked, "Your Royal Highness, what are you doing?" ”

Lu Qi looked at him and said, "Take me to the dean." ”

When the guard heard this, he turned around: "You come with me." ”

After following the guards who led the way into the main hall, you can see a statue in the center, which is very familiar.

After taking a closer look, Lu Qi remembered that he had seen the same one in the Menke family before, and the identity of this statue was Du Lang.

It's just that Du Lang here looks older, his eyes are more wise, and in his hand is an open book, and his temperament is quite elegant.

Lu Qi withdrew his gaze and looked at the hall, where people came and went, except for the patrolling guards, the rest were basically scholars from the scientific research academy.

"This way."

The guards turned to the right.

The place of the scientific research institute is not small, there are several areas, and many people are in a hurry on the way, and they look busy.

The three of Navis also looked at the interior of the scientific research institute with curiosity from beginning to end, even if they were the heirs of the Menke family, they were not qualified to enter a place like the scientific research institute on weekdays.

Those who can enter here are either soldiers who are guarding security, or people with a particularly noble status like Lu Qi.

The last one comes in by strength.

Not to mention Navis, Merry and Corson are definitely not qualified.

After some guidance, several people finally arrived at the door of the dean's office.

The guard raised his hand and knocked on the door, saying, "Dean, His Royal Highness the Prince has come down." ”

As soon as the words fell, the door was opened, and a middle-aged man glanced at it and said, "His Royal Highness the Prince, please come in, and the rest of the people will wait outside." ”

With that, he moved out of the way.

Luch walked in, and the three of Navis didn't really want to follow, so they waited outside.

"Your Highness, please come with me."

After entering the room, there were several more rooms inside, and the man who opened the door led Lu Qi to the left.

Pushing open a door, I saw a man inside, bent over, with tools in his hand, studying something, wearing monocles and loose robes, looking about forty years old.

This person is the president of the scientific research institute.

On the way here, Lu Qi learned from the two Mei Li siblings that the current president of the scientific research institute is also from the Menke family.

His name was Winward Dulang Menke, the third in the family, childless, and only forty years old, and he had already served as the dean of the scientific research institute, and his ability was very outstanding.

And he is also the uncle of the three Navies.

Looking further down, Luqi found that what Wenward was working on was the microphone pipes and the fittings inside.

At this time, the man who had just opened the door retreated.

"I have to say that the design of this microphone device is very exquisite, and if it were me, I might not have such an idea."

With a look of admiration on his face, Wenward put down the tools in his hand as he spoke, looked at Lu Qi, and saluted, "First meeting, Your Highness." ”

Lu Qi replied with a junior salute: "Good afternoon, Dean. ”

"Marshal Fang Cai has already informed me of the purpose of your trip."

Winward said slowly, "Of course, it's okay to borrow someone, but before I do that, I have a few questions for you. ”

Even as an elder, his attitude remains humble.

When he spoke, his eyes flashed with a look of inquisitiveness.

Lu Qi said, "What's the problem? ”

"It's like this." Winward reached for the microphone and said, "I wanted to ask Naviss, but after thinking about it, it would be better to ask you directly." Can you tell me, what exactly is sound? ”

As the president of the scientific research institute, he naturally knew about the microphone pipeline at the first time.

And he heard that it was developed by a junior in the family, which made him extremely surprised.

Most of his time is engaged in research and invention, and he never cares about family affairs, and the first thing he thinks of when he hears the news is to ask Nevis about it.

But later I heard that it was the second prince of the country who inspired Naviss.

So, he resisted his curiosity and decided to study it for some time on his own to see if he could gain insight into the so-called voice before the prince found him.

However, it turned out that he had no new inspiration to this day, except for a piece of information obtained from the marshal.

Faced with this question, Lu Qi also thought for a while and replied: "Sound is actually a kind of energy. ”

Winward's eyes were full of curiosity and he asked, "Why do you say that?" ”

"Let's take the microphone as an example."

Lu Qi took two steps to the small workbench, picked up a microphone, and said, "For example, if two objects of the same frequency are struck on one of them, the other object will also vibrate and make sounds, this phenomenon is called resonance. The device in the pipeline uses the characteristics of sound resonance to achieve long-distance propagation. ”

"Resonance?"

Winward fell into thought for a moment, he was trying to understand Luki's words.

After a few seconds, he looked at Lu Qi: "That is, you use resonance to make the sound vibrate another object as it travels, and so on. So sound is also a kind of energy. ”

He was talking to himself, as if he was coming to understand the meaning.

There are many energies in nature, such as light energy, water energy, mechanical energy, and electrical energy, which are all energies that have the ability to drive matter.

Human beings use this energy to achieve a lot of things.

But he never thought about it, it turns out that sound is also a kind of energy.

So that's the case, so it makes sense.

"If that's the case, the sound can definitely be used elsewhere."

Winward walked around on the ground muttering to himself, as if enlightened, and thought of something, "Sound is a kind of energy, so can this energy be used as a weapon?" ”

Lu Qi, who was on the side, was also a little emotional when he heard the words in his heart.

Sure enough, there is no shortage of cattle everywhere.

It is said that Wen Huade is already the dean at the age of thirty-five, and it is indeed not false that he can sit in this position at such a young age.

He had only said a few words, and now Winward had understood, and was already deducing other uses for the sound on his own.

Looking at Wenward, who was thinking to himself, Lu Qi thought for a while and took the initiative to say: "You can imagine that sound is a kind of pressure wave, when playing a musical instrument, slapping a door, or knocking on the tabletop, their vibration will cause the medium-air molecules to vibrate rhythmically, causing the surrounding air to produce dense changes, forming sparse longitudinal waves, which produce sound waves. ”

Winward's eyes lit up: "That is, when this pressure wave is enhanced, the energy that the sound wave can produce is greater. ”

And when the energy of the sound wave is large enough, it naturally forms an offensive weapon.

Thinking of this, he suddenly looked at Lu Qi, like a junior looking at an elder, and said seriously: "I have been taught." ”

"You're welcome." Lu Qi smiled, "Is there anything else you don't understand?" ”

So Winward continued to ask: "So how do you enhance this sound wave?" ”

After thinking about it, Luqi walked to the blackboard on the right side of the room, picked up a piece of chalk, and wrote on it as he said: "The number of times an object vibrates in a second is called frequency, and the unit, we call it hertz"

It is not difficult to see that Winward's direction is to develop sonic weapons.

In fact, with Demacia's current capabilities, it is difficult to develop a sonic weapon, and it is better to pick up an atomic bomb for nothing.

However, Lucci doesn't feel like it's a waste of time.

He also doesn't mind bringing what he knows to Debang.

Especially people like Winward and Navis who are unusually obsessed with science. It is often this kind of person who can bring great changes to an era in a very short period of time.

Even if they know the distance, at least they know the direction.

Minutes and seconds passed.

At the same time, the dean was outside.

"Why are you here?"

Seeing the three of Navis, a curly-haired man stepped forward and asked with a frown.

When the three of them saw the man, they were also slightly stunned, and then bowed their heads in unison and said hello: "Brother Jared." ”

Jared said lightly: "This is the scientific research institute, is this the place where you should come?" ”

He is the eldest son in the family, and when he sees him, the momentum of the three of them is much weaker.

At this time, hearing this, Mei Li also replied: "We are following His Royal Highness. ”

"His Royal Highness."

Hearing this, Jared's expression did not change, and he glanced at the three of them, especially after seeing Nevis, his brows furrowed even deeper, "It seems that you still haven't listened to me, I said it, it's best not to mess with such useless people." ”

At this point, he looked at Navis's expression rather unpleasantly.

When he returned from a business trip, he learned that his workshop had been occupied, and that it was still occupied by Navis.

Immediately afterwards, he learned that the person who gave such an order was His Royal Highness the Prince, and he naturally couldn't go to Lu Qi to ask for an explanation.

His Royal Highness the prince can't afford to provoke it, so this anger is naturally Navis's turn.

However, Navis hasn't even returned to the Menke family these days, which makes Jared have nowhere to vent his anger.

If you see it today, you must be angry.

Moreover, the two siblings, Merry and Corson, who followed him all day long, also ran out all day, and after learning that they were looking for Navis, Jared directly forbade them to associate with her again.

However, it seems that these two did not listen.

If it were normal times, Mei Li and Corson would have been trembling, but at this moment, when they think of their backers, they are also a little more confident.

Mei Li said in a stiff tone, "Why do we have to listen to you?" ”

Corson also nodded beside him: "That's right, Navis is not a useless person. ”

At this moment, the two of them are scolding Jared, not only because of the backing of Luqi, but also because after getting along with each other these days, they have discovered many advantages of Navis, and they have also realized how stupid they were before.

Nevise looked up and glanced at the two of them, a little moved in her eyes.

Even if she doesn't leave the house all the year round, she knows that Jared, as the eldest son of the younger generation of the Menke family, basically no one dares to say one when she says two among the juniors.

And now the siblings are willing to stand on the opposite side of Jared for her.

"It's ridiculous, don't think that you have stiff wings when you follow His Royal Highness. I can't think of a reason why he values you, but I thank him for taking you three in my favor. ”

Seeing that the two siblings who didn't dare to resist themselves on weekdays behaved like this, Jared smiled contemptuously and said indifferently.

Glancing at the three of them with disdain, Jared turned away directly, not wanting to waste time on them.

Navis has always been an outsider in his eyes who wastes the family's resources.

As for Merry and Corson, they're just two idiots, there's not much to say.

In his opinion, the three of them will not be able to enter the scientific research institute in their lives.

Navis was accustomed to such humiliation, and Merry and Corson's expressions were not very good, but they couldn't refute it.

They're also a little used to it, and Jared is so proud and unpopular in the family.

After all, the Menke family speaks with ability, and the more capable a person is, the higher the right to speak in the family.

After a while, Lu Qi pushed the door open and walked out.

At a glance, he noticed that the atmosphere on the side of Navis and the three of them was not right, and it was normal for Navis to keep her head down, but Merry and Corson had a little low expressions.

After thinking about it, he still asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Obviously, something happened here, otherwise the two siblings, who were very excited before they came, have completely changed now.

"Brother Jared was here just now."

"Jared?"

Luki's impression of this person is stuck in the last time he knew about him, and it seems that he threatens Navis as an outsider in the family and takes the lead in isolating and bullying him.

So what happened just now, even if the three of them didn't say it, Lu Qi probably guessed it.

At this moment, two voices came from overhead.

"All the students and workers of the Academy of Sciences, gather in the conference hall!"

"All the students and workers of the Academy of Sciences, gather in the conference hall!"

Lucci looked up at the source of the sound and saw an amplified horn hanging in the corner.

Wen Huade walked out of the dean's room and said with a smile: "Does Your Highness feel very familiar?" ”

Lucky's head was evident that it seemed to be a microphone.

At this moment, Rao is him, and he is also a little surprised by the efficiency of the scientific research institute.

Obviously, they used the microphone as a kind of in-range broadcast loudspeaker to talk to everyone unilaterally, which is very convenient in this kind of workplace.

Of course, this is also a usage in itself.

The last time Tiana took Luci to find Navis and enter the palace, she understood the drawings and principles of the microphone.

After that, it was sent to the scientific research institute and told Lu Qi in advance.

It's just that it's only been a few days.

It is not easy for the scientific research institute to use and find other uses in such a short period of time.

"Uncle Winward."

At this time, the three of Navis bowed to Winward and said hello.

"Let's go."

Winward looked at them and smiled, he had no children and didn't care much about the family's affairs.

But now in his opinion, these three juniors of the family can meet His Royal Highness, which can be regarded as an excellent luck.

He thought maybe he could get a little promotion.

As a few people walked on the way to the conference room, Lu Qi also saw several loudspeakers used to cast sound, as well as many students and workers of the Academy of Sciences who were rushing towards the conference hall.

By the time they arrived, the students and workers in the conference room had basically arrived.

"Hello Dean."

After seeing Wenward, the people inside stood up and said hello.

"Sit down."

Winward waved his hand, looked at Lu Qi and said, "You do it for a while, I have something to say before that." ”

So, Lu Qi sat in the front row.

The three of Navis sat down next to them.

At this time, Wenward walked to the stage in front of the conference hall, looked at the crowd and said slowly: "The results of the last round of examinations of the scientific research institute have come out today, and then I will read the name and go to the stage." ”

He didn't talk too much nonsense, and when he finished speaking, he read it directly.

"Doyle Randolph, who passed the examination, was awarded the fourth-class student."

"Cronin Marvin, who passed the examination, was awarded the fourth-level student."

"Dennis Bichel, with good results in the examination, awarded the fifth-level student."

"Diere."

“.”

With the recitation of one name after another, the student worker who was read came to the stage to receive the student worker badge.

The rank of the student worker in the scientific research institute, that is, the technician, is determined according to the badge.

From one to ten, the higher the level, the stronger the ability of the student.

It wasn't long before Winward was the last man.

"Jared Durang Menke, with excellent results in the examination, awarded the sixth grade student."

As Jared stood up with his head held high and walked towards the stage, the applause also rang out.

At the same time, people's whispers also rang out.

"It's worthy of Young Master Jared, a rookie of the Menke family."

"I remember he only went up to level five last year and another level this year."

"It's almost a year to move up a level, it's terrifying."

"Moreover, he is only twenty-six years old this year, which seems to be the youngest sixth-level student in the scientific research institute."

Wearing the badge of the sixth-level student and listening to the people's discussions, Jared was extremely proud, and the corners of his mouth also hooked up a faint smile.

He enjoyed all this applause that belonged to him, and his vanity was becoming full little by little.

In the next second, Wenward's voice was heard continuing to sound: "Navis Durang Menke is hereby specially awarded the Eighth-Grade Learner Badge." ”

Jared's smile instantly froze on the spot.

At the same time, there was silence from the audience.

Who is Naves?

The Menke family?

Why haven't you heard of it?

And Navis was also at a loss at the moment, her little face was extremely confused, how could she mention herself in a good manner?

Until Lu Qi said calmly beside him: "Go ahead." ”

Her mind was so confused now that she had to listen to Luki's orders, stood up, and walked towards the stage.

When people saw Navis on stage, they were also surprised.

Winward handed her a badge symbolizing the eighth grade of the Student.

Jared, who returned to his seat, saw this scene, his eyes were about to pop out, and he was even more incredulous.

Why did Neves get the Level 8 Learner Badge?

This is an eighth-level student, a position that many people can't get to in their lifetime!

At this time, there was also a question from someone next to him.

"Jared, is this Navis your sister?"

"It's also from the Menke family, so young, I don't think I've even reached eighteen."

"Even if it's eighteen, hiss, eighteen-year-old eighteen-level student worker, this is terrifying enough."

"That's a real record-breaking, right? It's so much better than you. ”

Listening to the voices of the people around him, Jared replied with an unnatural expression: "I don't know what's going on." ”

The gap between the twenty-six-year-old sixth-level student worker and the eighteen-year-old eighteen-year-old eighth-level student worker is naturally clear at a glance.

Especially the words of the last person, it was simply pierced directly into his heart.

He didn't even have to enjoy the record-breaking honor for long before it was taken away from him.

And, it's still that Navis!

It must be through the back door!

The smile on Jared's face disappeared, and he thought uncertainly, very unconvinced.

At this time, Nevis was watched by so many people at one time, and she was a little overwhelmed and said, "I don't want to be a student worker."

She has figured out how to do things for His Royal Highness, and now why has she become a student of the scientific research institute again?

When the audience heard this, there was another uproar.

You don't want to be an eighth-level student?

So what do you want to be? Dean?

Wenward didn't care, and smiled: "It's just a name, you can come when you want to come, and if you don't want to come, you can keep hanging, go back." ”

"Oh."

Hearing this, Nevis breathed a sigh of relief and returned to her seat.

And the students in the audience, hearing that she can hang the name of an eighth-level student, and come when she wants, and leave when she wants, it is called an envy.

The salary of the eighth-level student worker is not low.

"Uncle!"

At this moment, a voice rang out.

When they looked, they saw Jared standing up.

As for Wenward, he frowned and looked over.

Jared hurriedly spoke: "Dean, I don't think you should just give the badge of the eighth grade student to a little girl, it's not fair to many people. ”

In fact, what he is saying now represents the voice of many people.

Seeing that a little girl got the badge of the eighth grade student, many people felt unconvinced.

However, only Jared stood up and spoke at this point.

And Winward just looked at Jared lightly and said, "Are you questioning my decision?" ”

Jared lowered his head: "Don't dare." ”

"Then sit down."

Winward withdrew his gaze and stopped looking at him, not even wanting to explain.

Jared sat down with an unnatural expression, and the more he thought about it, the more unconvinced he became.

Wenward continued: "What do you think of the microphone of the recent scientific research institute? ”

Microphones are a hot thing in scientific research institutes recently, and everyone is basically involved in learning about it.

There are even quite a few people who have done special research for this.

At this time, the voice fell, and the students and workers in the audience began to discuss.

"I have to say, there is something about this so-called sonology."

"The description of the propagation, amplification, and medium of sound inspires me a lot!"

"The advent of the microphone, which I think can have a great impact on existing life, is a phenomenal invention!"

And Jared also joined the conversation, wanting to divert the embarrassment just now, so he also said to a few companions around him, "The person who developed the microphone must be extremely powerful, but I don't know if I can meet and tell my admiration." ”

Several people around echoed for a while.

At this time, Winward raised his hand, and the audience immediately fell silent.

"Now that you know the significance of microphones, I think it's time for the developers of microphones to inform you."

Winward said, looking at Navis and smiling softly, "Come on stage again." ”

Navis was stunned again, and suddenly made it public, she was completely unprepared, and looked at Luqi blankly.

Lu Qi smiled at her, "Go ahead." ”

Navis mustered up her courage and stepped onto the stage again.

When people saw that it was her, they were all extremely surprised.

But he suddenly understood why the dean had so decently awarded Nevis's eighth-level student badge.

The dissatisfaction in my heart just now also disappeared.

Only Jared paused again, staring incredulously at Naves on the stage.

She was the one who developed the microphone?

That phenomenal invention?

"Jared, that cow man turned out to be your sister."

"Why didn't you tell us earlier?"

"Don't you know?"

At this time, the voices of the people around him once again made Jared feel like he was hit hard.

The expression is the same as constipation, and the mentality is also unstable.

And then, his mentality collapsed directly.

Winward took out a concept drawing, pasted it on the blackboard at the back, and said, "This thing is called a printing press, you can see for yourself." ”

After the concept drawings were pasted, the students and workers in the conference hall looked at each other, and as time passed, their eyes became surprised little by little.

Printing press, just listen to the name and know how awesome this thing is.

And when they looked at the concept drawings and could print 80 copies of that kind of newspaper in one minute, they were all shocked.

The significance of this printing press is even no less than that of the previous microphone, both of which are almost phenomenal inventions that can have a certain impact on life.

People's eyes involuntarily focused on Navis.

Wenward said at this time: "Yes, she is the developer of the research. ”

The audience was boiling and discussing, and there was no disbelief in the crowd at this time.

And when Winward pulled out the third concept drawing of the bike, the audience exploded.

They looked at Navis, and they no longer saw her as a little girl, but as a senior in the artisan world.

Being stared at like this by so many people, Navies lowered her head, extremely nervous.

But she knew that she was able to achieve this achievement because of Lu Qi.

Winward also looked at Lu Qi at this time, but withdrew his gaze with a glance.

He had already done what His Highness wanted, and let Navis start to show his talents.

And he knew that now Navis was only seventeen years old, and at the age of seventeen, she already had what many people could only dream of.

It's hard to imagine how terrifying she will be in the future with Lu Qi.

At this time, Jared had a completely stupid expression, his face was full of confusion, and his hair was a little messy.

He couldn't help but look at Merry and Corson on the other end.

It's no wonder these two haven't licked him lately, and they've been messing around with Navis all day.

It turned out that I found a new thigh!

And it's so thick!

At this moment, Merry and Cosson turned their heads to look for him, and the eyes that looked at him were a little more smug and smug.

Jared's face was red and white, staring at the two of them with hatred.

Damn, you two said earlier, I'd have gone up and licked it!

Is it too late to lick now?

It seems too late

Jared's current mood is regret, incomparably regretful.

Navis's awesomeness has exceeded his imagination, and these three inventions alone are enough to make Navis's name resounding in the history of Demacia.

And he, when he should lick it the most, chose to go up and humiliate him like a stupid man.

At the end of the day, the clown turned out to be me!

Jared's teeth are about to be crushed, and if he sees Merry and Corson in the family in the future, he will go up and give him a kick!

"Next, 50 people will be selected from the scientific research institute to go for further study, and the students above the fourth level will stand up."

Winward spoke up again.

As soon as the words fell, the students above the fourth level immediately stood up.

Naturally, they understood what it meant to go to Navis's side to do things for a while, or even to do manual work.

However, at this moment, it can be said that there is almost no one who does not want to go, including those who are senior students.

Because, they can ask Nevise a lot of questions at close range, which is tantamount to a great temptation for them who love craftsman learning.

Even if they can learn a little experience, it will be very beneficial for them.

At this time, the number of people who stood up was about sixty or seventy.

"You choose."

Winward looked at Navis and gave her the choice.

Navis looked at Luci, and only when she saw Luci nodding her head did she look to the other side.

She didn't know who to choose, but she definitely had to start with a senior student.

So she started with the badges and chose them one by one.

There are not many eighth-level students, only a few, and all of them are selected.

There are not many seventh-level students, only a dozen, and all of them are selected.

The remaining sixth- and fifth-level students are about fifty, and the sixth-level students account for thirty.

Navis stretched out her fingers, one by one, she chose them in order, and the people she clicked were automatically out of the line.

Soon, she saw Jared inside.

At this time, Jared looked at her with the contempt he had before, but a flattering sneer: "Little sister, don't forget that we are our own family, the eldest brother apologized to you for his ignorance before, can you forgive me?" ”

Nevis hesitated, then nodded.

It's as if forgiven.

And Jared had just smiled with joy when he saw that his finger, which had been on his point, suddenly came to him and jumped on the next person.

Jared: "."

Then if you don't stay, continue to choose.

In the end, the sixth-level students were selected, and even the fifth-level students were selected, and only Jared was left.

As the only sixth-level student left in the audience, Jared could only smile awkwardly.

Navis didn't look at Jared again in the end, forgiveness is definitely unforgivable, let's talk about it when she is in a better mood in a few years!

I went to the hospital for a check-up.,Intestinal infarction.,This chapter is a mobile phone code.,It's too late to change it.,It's sent first.

(End of chapter)
