Chapter 24: Unusual Covenants (Asking for Recommendation Votes)

More than an hour passed quickly, and before Leo had finished browsing the books in the real yàn room, the old mage had already rested and started to work on the real yàn of the crystal seed as scheduled. So, all afternoon, Leo was fighting the old mage.

At first, he thought that the other party's class was not very good, and the actual level must be quite bad, so he didn't pay too much attention to it. Moreover, the world's most advanced technology, magic, seemed to him to be a bit like an empirical skill that had been passed down orally in ancient times, rather than a systematic modern science.

However, as the real yàn progressed, Leo became more and more surprised.

The old master not only showed superb practical skills, but also had extremely solid scientific research literacy. This is by no means something that can be summed up by empirical skills, but must go through a long period of systematic learning and training.

This forced Leo to re-examine the magical system, perhaps a new system that was as complete and far-reaching as the science of the previous life.

Under the old master's hands, various basic methods such as contrast, elimination, and screening emerged one after another, and effective practices were carried out again and again. Combined with some magic and alchemy tools that Leo couldn't understand at all, he analyzed the optimal temperature, crystallization increment, and other items, and even recorded a fairly thick stack of paper, which was detailed and accurate.

Leo was a little ashamed to find that even after higher education, he might not be able to compare to the other party.

However, although these numbers are very helpful for specific crystallization operations, they still cannot obtain the most fundamental analysis of the crystal seed principle. Of course, if you have a super mathematical ability, it is not impossible to deduce the final conclusion, Leo does not know if the old mage has this ability, but he must still lack an extremely important practical method, microscopic observation.

If it can be observed that the seed adsorbs the substances in the supersaturated solution and promotes crystal formation, then the whole process will be constructively expanded.

As he pondered whether to give the other party a hint, Leo found that although the real yàn was almost over, the old mage was still thinking about it, and he was obviously quite at a loss about the final principle.

After a closer look and making sure that there were no microscope-like gold tools, he deliberately muttered in a low voice, "If only I could know how the seed becomes crystal." ”

The room was very quiet, so Leo's voice reached the old mage's ears clearly.

"Can you see clearly?" After pondering for a moment, the old mage also muttered to himself: "Such a small thing, even with microvision, it is not clear at all. Alas, it would be nice to be able to see it clearly. ”

As a mage, he often naturally relies on magic, and even neglects the help of tools for this, which is also a common problem for many mages.

Seeing that the other party's interest was aroused, Leo pretended to be ignorant and said, "Master, if you use microvision and a magnifying glass, can you see clearly?"

"Magnifying glass, what's that?" the old mage looked dazed.

"Uh......" Leo was speechless. Although he had heard of microvision and probably understood its effects, he didn't know that it was just a fairly simple magic. And with this magical existence, naturally no one has invented any magnifying glasses.

"It's not going to be self-defeating. Sighing in his heart, Leo had to bite the bullet and explain, "That's it...... It's a crystal that's thin on both sides and thick in the middle, which can magnify things. ”

"Oh, and this kind of thing, how do you know?" the old mage suddenly became interested, and looked at Leo curiously, but his reaction was not very violent, after all, this kid had already surprised himself several times.

Leo's face remained unchanged, and he replied naturally: "Master Byron, this kind of thing is a magnifying glass, which our people will basically use." You also know that when people get old, their eyes will be flowery, so our old people will grind glass into a magnifying glass to see small things. ”

"You guys?" the old mage was completely obsessed with research, and didn't bother to ask Leo who he was, and said directly: "Then tell me what this magnifying glass is all about, it sounds very interesting." ”

"I know too much about the specifics. Leo scratched his head, in fact, he had already figured out how to explain, "Look at that beaker, did you enlarge the things in the back?"

"Hey, it's really magnified, why didn't I find it before. The old mage immediately became excited, "Magnifying glass, this is a very apt name, and it is the discovery of the people at the bottom, it seems that it is really necessary to pay attention to this, maybe I can submit a report to the Magior." ”

Leo found that he had completely underestimated the other party's desire to explore, and he couldn't help but grow his head and muttered in his heart: "Isn't it, the subject of crystal seed has just begun, and he is going to study optics again?"

At this time, the castle bell rang and continued to strike six times.

The old mage reacted that it was almost night. He looked at Leo again, and felt that this kid also knew the purpose of the magnifying glass, and as for the principle, it was definitely impossible to understand, so he said: "That's all for today, I'll study this magnifying glass first." Little Leo, you clean up and go to rest. ”

It seems to be a very ordinary sentence, but Leo keenly noticed that unconsciously, the old mage's address and attitude towards him have become much kinder.

There was secretly some joy in his heart, but he was really afraid that the other party would not finish his research, after all, he would have a date with Isha for a while.

When the old mage had departed with the beaker, Leo cleaned up a little and returned to his hut. The usual end time is six o'clock, and Isha usually arrives before seven o'clock. He didn't want to worry the girl because he wasn't in the room.

In this world, Isha is the closest person to him, and Leo feels obligated not to let the girl get hurt in any way.

Sitting on the bed, he found that there was nothing to do, so he had to pull up the "Imperial Bloodline Overview" from his mind and read it.

Although this book is very general, it is quite interesting, for example, the royal family of the Lunar Empire continues the bloodline of a legendary lord in the wind elemental world, and has always been known for producing powerful elemental warlocks and bloodline warfare, of course, the royal family also has a complete magical inheritance, otherwise it would never be possible to sit on the emperor's throne for hundreds of years.

Before I knew it, the chiming clock was remembered again.

"It's seven o'clock, strange, why hasn't Isa come yet?"

Leo was in no mood to continue reading, and after waiting for a while, he couldn't sit still, so he pushed open the door and walked towards the first floor of the castle.

I found the room where Isha lived and knocked on the door for a long time, but there was no response.

"Where did she go, why didn't she tell me?" Leo became even more anxious.

Finding a random room, Leo was about to knock on the door to ask about Isa's whereabouts, but the door opened by itself.

A sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl poked her head out, none other than one of Isa's best friends, Bonnie.

Seeing Leo, Bonnie immediately said, "Leo, you're here, Isha asked me to tell you, she's waiting for you in the North Grove." ”

Leo was confused, "North Grove, what is she waiting for me there?"

"Then I don't know, maybe she wants to ...... with you Oh ha. Bonnie laughed openly.

"It's weird, even if Isha wants to ...... with me Wouldn't it be nice to be in the room. Leo muttered secretly, but in fact, he didn't believe the other party's statement very much, although Isha liked herself very much, but she always remained reserved, and she shouldn't take the initiative to make such a request.

"Thanks, then I'll go find her. In desperation, Leo nodded at Bonnie and turned to leave.

Looking at Leo's back, Bonnie opened her mouth, but in the end she still couldn't resist. It was a week of easy work, and for her with little status, it was indeed enough to betray her friend once.

"I hope it's just to scare him, but not to kill anyone. ”

............

It was already completely dark, and there was only more than an hour left before the curfew began.

Leaving the castle, we walked north, where there was a small grove that was not very dense and spread to the defensive wall on the outer perimeter of the castle, and was rarely passed by because there was no horse-drawn carriage.

On the autumn night, already with a little chill, Leo tightened his thin clothes and stopped at the edge of the grove.

It was pitch black, and it was completely impossible to see inside, as if the moonlight could not penetrate the woods, and occasionally there was an unpleasant cry of ravens.

"What the hell is going on, forget it, let's go in and see!" Leo felt that things were getting more and more strange. But for the sake of Isa, he had no choice but to cautiously cast a crust on himself and strode into the forest.

Feet on fallen leaves, creaking. As he made his way into the depths, Leo called out softly, "Isa, are you there?"

Without any response, after walking about a hundred meters, a voice suddenly came from ahead, which was particularly clear in the quiet forest.

"Woo!"

"Isha?!"

The voice Leo would never admit it, it must have been Isha, but her mouth ...... Blocked?

"Damn, what the hell is going on?"

Following the sound, Leo did not pull his legs and run wildly, but chose to take as light a step as possible, hide his body, and then walked forward. But in a moment, a figure dressed in light gray clothes appeared in front of him, it was not Isha.

At this moment, the girl was tied to a tree, and her mouth was gagged with a rag. Seeing Leo, she shook her head desperately, as if to signal him to leave.

"Who did this!Gutierrez?"

Leo's heart shook and he subconsciously felt the danger, but before he could react, a strong wind suddenly hit behind him, hitting the back of his head.

"Bump!"

After a heavy thud, Leo's eyes darkened and he fell to the ground.
