Studying Science in the Alternate World Chapter 336

Chapter 336 The Uncrowned King

 Hand of arcane magic!

 A 5-level arcane weapon, it is also the most complex auxiliary arcane weapon designed and cast by Duke and Xiaoyi.

certainly.

 It is also okay to classify it as an offensive arcane weapon.

Faced with the Water Mirror Technique, Duke admired his own cool style, or rather admired the sky-high style of the arcane weapon.

His entire body has been completely covered by the arcane weapon, and his eyes, ears, mouth and nose are also covered by a special mask. However, his vision was not blocked in any way, because the densely opened and closed eyes on the arcane weapon Tongtian could sense everything around him.

 “At this time, it's time to bring a weapon.” Duke grinned.

 The next moment, mind communication is exclusive to the starry sky.

A three-meter sword flashing with electric sparks appeared in his right hand. From the hilt to the blade, everything was shrouded in electric sparks.

"The Thunder Long Sword is made of the essence of the 9-ring Yalong - Diamond Thunder Dragon, and many Yalong auxiliary materials." This is a Yalong weapon that Duke took the time to forge himself after returning to Cuihai City. His second personal Wurm weapon.

  Possessing the ability of a 4th-level dragon knight to control the sword with energy. The more weapons he has in his hand, the greater the power he can exert.

 So, two sub-dragon weapons are far from enough. He plans to hunt dragons when he gets the chance, and then forge sub-dragon weapons one after another.

 At least ten should be cast.

"It's a pity that the 4-ring lightsaber is the limit of how I can control the sword with my energy. The 5-ring lightsaber just released is too big and difficult to control." Duke does not have a special preference for Yaron weapons, he still loves his own light more Sword, but the upper limit of lightsaber is limited.

 The special attributes of the sub-dragon weapon determine that the stronger the user, the higher the upper limit of the sub-dragon weapon.

But the lightsaber is different. The level and power are fixed, the upper limit has been fixed, and there is not much room to play.

certainly.

If the 5-ring lightsaber was compressed to a size where the sword could be controlled with air, then there would probably be no room for a sub-dragon weapon.

"That is to say, I can control the sword with my energy. Ordinary knights, even advanced fantasy beast knights, can only use 3-ring lightsabers at most... 4-ring and above lightsabers are strategic weapons and need to be installed on city walls or airships for use. .”

 Thinking was a little divergent, and then, Duke's other sub-dragon weapon, the Translucent Dragon Spear, appeared in the arcane hand on his left shoulder.

So far.

 He holds a shield in his left hand, a spear in his arcane hand, and a sword in his right hand. Only his arcane hand is free.

"Little Kabuto, come out and work!" Duke called, and Little Kabuto quickly flew out of the sea of ​​air, with blood-colored light blooming, and transformed into a Kabuto-armored mongoose dragon beast.

 Duke jumped up and jumped onto the groove behind Xiaodou's neck.

One person and one dragon have the same mind. Accompanied by Xiao Kabuto's dragon roar, he **** his wings and flies into the sky above the forest, soaring close to the forest.

at this time.

With his free arcane hand, he suddenly snapped his fingers, and what came out along with the snap was the third-level arcane spell - Stream of Wind.

  Xiao Kabuto's already fast speed increased tremendously in an instant, doubling his flying speed, like a black stream of light, passing over the forest. The birds that were approaching the tree crown didn't even see clearly what they were just now, and they flew over in a swish.

 Snap your fingers again, release the 5-ring compound arcana - Stormfall.

The entire forest was violently blown by strong winds, countless big trees were uprooted, and many low-level spiritual beasts were swept up into the sky by the storm. It was a scene of doomsday.

“Not bad, Xiaoyi, well done!” Duke looked back at the trembling forest under the 5th ring of arcane spells, extremely satisfied.

  Xiaoyi responded: "These are the basic operations Xiaoyi completed under the guidance of your wise master, Master Shenwu."

“Haha, Xiaoyi, your language talent has improved, and your pretentious style has been inherited from me.”

　　Compliment each other.

Duke then ordered: "Next, challenge the limit, Xiaoyi, cast the 6-ring compound arcana - Wind on the Scene!"

 “Okay, master, as you wish.”

The arcane hand on the right shoulder was raised high, instead of snapping the fingers, the fingers were spread open, and the luster of arcane magic flowed on the fingertips.

  Xiao Dou is still flying at high speed, while Xiao Yi is constantly brewing and sketching arcane magic.

 Finally, after three seconds, arcane light bloomed from the arcane hand, and for a moment the whole world seemed to be echoing the arcane hand. Countless strong winds were like steel knives, blowing out from any corner of the surrounding space, roaring and crushing everything.

 6-ring composite arcana - Wind Release at the Situation.

Sand dust spread all over the sky, and the wind howled like a group of evil ghosts from **** wailing, which stung Duke's eardrums.

The forest has disappeared, leaving only torn wood chips and leaves, stirred with sand and gravel by the ubiquitous strong wind.

 The field of view inside is no more than one meter.

However, Duke was riding a small bag, suspended in the air outside the Mathematical Olympiad. He could see that the entire forest within a kilometer was shrouded in gray. Like a huge bubble, only grayish yellow is stirring.

 “This is the power of the 6-ring compound arcana...” Duke sighed in his heart.

By the time the aftermath of the arcane spell subsided, the forest within a kilometer had disappeared, leaving only a thick layer of yellow sand.

The originally vibrant forest was completely annihilated in just a few breaths.

 The power of arcane magic can destroy the heaven and the earth.

However, Duke did not express too much emotion about the power of arcane magic. Instead, he turned to look at his arcane hand and laughed loudly: "With the fifth-level arcane hand, with this arcane weapon, I can release any arcane weapon." The technique is wonderful, truly wonderful!"

 Seems to go along with Duke's wishes.

The arcane hand quickly detached from the arcane weapon Tongtian, suspended in front of Duke, and then began to decompose, turning into countless crystals with a slight red luster, arranged like bricks, and combined into various shapes and structures. .

“Any kind of arcana is a stack of ring structures.” Xiao Yi's voice sounded in his mind.

"Based on the existing ring structure model in the database, perform mimicry calculations, then input signals in sequence, and simulate and reorganize with the help of arcane hands, you can create any kind of arcane ring. After activating the ring, the arcane magic will take shape. .”

 The principle of Arcane Hand is actually like a calculator.

 Set the calculation formula, then enter the numbers to calculate the result.

Similarly, there is a ring structure simulation module inside the Arcane Hand. By inputting the decomposition serial number of each arcane spell, the simulation can be reorganized.

certainly.

The amount of calculations involved in this set of arcane simulations and reorganizations is incredibly huge and cannot be tolerated by ordinary arcane weapons.

 Only Xiaoyi can complete the calculations of simulated reorganization with its huge database and powerful computing power.

  In other words.

 The hand of arcane magic is left to Duke to control, and it cannot exert its power at all. Even the release of a level 1 arcane spell may take a long time to calculate.

 Even if the stars, the 7-ring Morning Star and the 8-ring Glowing Moon, get the hands of arcane magic, this is the same.

The human brain is good at creation, but when it comes to specific calculations, the human brain is far from a match for supercomputing. Let alone supercomputing, it cannot even compete with a calculator.

"Unfortunately, forbidden arts require the linkage of miracles. It is not just a simple stacking of several arcane spells that can lead to the release of forbidden arts. Otherwise, I can cast a few more arcane hands, release arcane spells at the same time, and then summon the forbidden arts. …”

 Having gained Long, he returned to Shu.

Just now he was praising the powerful power of the 6-ring compound arcana, but now Duke has begun to long for the power of the forbidden magic.

 Shaked his head.

He looked at the ever-changing shape of the arcane hand in front of him and said to himself: "Don't worry, let Xiaoyi calculate slowly, and you can always find a way to quickly release the forbidden spell. When the time comes, I will cast another one Hand of forbidden magic!"

 At this point, Duke has completely figured out the Arcane Weapon Tongtian Combination.

With a thought, all the arcane weapons except the arcane armor were recovered into the spiritual sea, and the arcane armor was transformed into an arcane robe again.

 “Hoar?” Kabuto turned his head and glanced at Duke.

"Don't worry, let's blow some more wind." Duke didn't want to go back yet, so he quickly materialized the three-ring sand eagle, held it, and aimed and shot at will.

 Before traveling through time, he was a senior member of the shooting club, and he loved shooting guns.

Although the arcane magic in the wild world is wonderful, he still prefers the simple and violent output mode of firearms.

 “Let's go down.”

"Roar!"

 One man and one dragon fell into the forest that had turned into rolling yellow sand. Fortunately, the yellow sand area was only one kilometer in radius. It wouldn't take long for the area to be re-occupied by green plants.

 This is a supernatural world with spirituality.

Plants are very powerful and it is difficult for humans to destroy vegetation. Especially near the habitat, hunting in summer and winter must be carried out frequently, otherwise the habitat will soon be occupied by animals and plants.

This is also the reason why human beings can only live near the spiritual spring. With the current strength of mankind, it can only protect a small habitat near the spiritual spring.

but.

 With the birth of the Ring of Phantom Beasts and the Ring of Qi Refining, the strength of the lowest level of human beings will skyrocket, and the range of habitats they can occupy will continue to expand. The larger the habitat, the larger the population it can accommodate. The larger the population, the stronger it is and can occupy a larger habitat.

 In short, humans have entered a virtuous cycle of expansion and can form a tug-of-war with more animals and plants.

 “Birth, death…”

Walking on the yellow sand, Duke looked at the dense forest in the distance and the delicate gray-yellow soil under his feet, and he couldn't help but feel a little enlightenment in his heart.

 He could see that the energy of all things in this area disappeared with the arcane blow.

However, in the distant forest, there is a thin air of all things spreading here, quickly seeping into the gray-yellow soil underfoot.

Then the energy of all things that were defeated by the arcane magic seemed to be resurrected and returned to its original state.

"No... Although it is still the Qi of all things, it has changed from the Qi of life and all things to the Qi of death and all things, and its nature has changed." As a fourth-level elf Qi refining master, Duke has a good sense of the Qi of all things. Keen, "These dead spirits of all things are waiting for something, they seem to want to turn into the spirit of nature."

next moment.

 He discovered that these auras of death and all things had formed about five or six small whirlpools in the ruins within a kilometer.

He walked to one of the whirlpools, felt it carefully, and then realized its contents: "These are natural spirits that have not yet formed...the spiritual beasts and spiritual plants destroyed by arcane magic, leaving behind a trace of spiritual light. , attracting the condensed energy of death and all things.”

 When the condensation is successful, the energy of death and all things and the light of spirituality merge, and a new natural spirit will be generated.

 “So, the way of the soul…what is the soul?”

Duke was in a trance and fell into an epiphany. Looking at the vortex formed by the energy of death and all things, his understanding became more and more profound: "The soul is not what I thought...thinking spirit body and the like...the soul is more like a kind of Spiritual body'."

In his opinion.

The human body, the body of animals, and even the bodies of flowers, plants and trees are all material bodies, and this body is fixed. Therefore, people, animals, flowers, plants and trees will all grow according to the shape of the body, and eventually grow into what they should be.

 Be it humans, animals, flowers, plants, trees, and all tangible and qualitative things, they also have spiritual bodies. It's just that spirit is too loose compared to matter, so there is the concept of body death and Tao destruction.

But if the Tao of cultivation is so strong that the spiritual body will not dissipate in a short period of time, then it means that the spiritual light is left behind.

Then the energy of death and all things will condense along the "body" shape of the spiritual light, fill the body again, and become the spirit of nature.

“The so-called inheritance of the spirit of nature is actually nothing more than the knowledge, memory and other intangible information contained in the spiritual body. The physical body is composed of matter, and the spiritual body is composed of these intangible information...that is, the soul.”

 In an instant.

 Duke woke up from his epiphany. At the same time, a barrier in his body seemed to be suddenly broken, and more energy of all things poured in from the outside world.

 It does not distinguish between the energy of life and all things, and the energy of death and all things.

“Huh, it turns out this is an opportunity...I have now been promoted to a fifth-level Elf Qi Refining Master!” A smile appeared on Duke's lips.

But soon he frowned again: "The energy of all things in the Wilderness Continent is too thin, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to maintain the next stage of cultivation... Fortunately, I can cross the Vajra Oak at any time and go to the Whirlwind Forest to practice... Wilderness Power."

 In the Wilderness Continent, this power has been named the Qi of All Things by him.

 In the Whirlwind Forest, it is still called the Power of the Wilderness.

“But ordinary Qi refining practitioners, facing the thin Qi of all things, may not be able to practice to the 5th environment realm in this life... let alone a Qi refining master.”

After sighing, Duke felt relieved: "What does this have to do with me? I let the spiritual planters break the ceiling of level 1 and gave them a follow-up path to practice. It is already great enough!"

 Just like he was promoted to a 4th level dragon knight.

Although it will be difficult for anyone to follow his path in the future, at least he has pointed the way for future generations and is no longer confused.

boom!

With a slight gunshot, the three-ringed sand eagle accurately killed a spiritual beast that curiously stepped into the yellow sand range. The spiritual beast of the 2nd environment was exploded on the spot without leaving any residue.

“Xiaoyi, how long do you think it will take before the three-ring sand eagle can reach the limit of the spell model?” Duke asked quickly.

Since being upgraded to a 3-ring arcane weapon, the Sand Eagle has been dismantled into four modules - mode module, bullet module, auxiliary module and control module.

 Each improvement is made to optimize the structure of each module and pursue stronger and smoother combat effectiveness.

“Reporting to the master, it will take about half a year to improve with the current 25% power, and it can be optimized to the structural limit of the three-ring sand eagle's spell model.”

“Half a year is too long, reduce efficiency from other processes, and get 50% efficiency for Sand Eagle optimization.” Duke ordered.

 There is not much progress in Xiaoyi nowadays.

 The exclusive meditation method and breathing method are unchangeable processes. The others are basically the construction of arcane wonders, the development and design of arcane weapons, and the improvement of the three-ring sand eagle.

In addition to these five permanent processes, the blood refining method also requires Xiaoyi to take time to complete every day.

In addition, there are various experiments that require Xiaoyi to coordinate and direct, or consume power to conduct in-depth research. As for interactive programs such as the Dou Qi holographic screen and human-computer interaction, they only require 1% of power to maintain and do not take up much computing power.

“Good master, the computing power has been redistributed for you, and the sand eagle has been optimized and improved to 50% power.”

Woooooooo!

The whistle of the battleship Three Rings sounded over the Blue Whale Bay City Flight Station, and then, under the guidance of the staff, it rowed into the designated berth.

The hatch opened, and the **** knights headed by Hersas quickly walked down surrounded by an earth replica ring.

"Captain Herdos, welcome." Among the team that came to pick up the plane, a fourth-level arcane earth mage slowly stepped forward. "I am the director of Duke's chief sage office. My name is Saston. I received the call. Notice from the boss, come and hand over the Earth Replication Ring."

 “Hello, Mr. Saston.” Herdos greeted politely.

He is the captain of Duke's guard knight. He was a second-level fantasy beast knight in his early years. Now he has been promoted to a third-level advanced fantasy beast knight with the help of the beast blood pill.

This trip was ordered to **** Duke's Earth Replica Ring to the Holy City of Offa.

 Everyone checked the procedures with each other, and then, under the leadership of Saston, they sat in several large shuttles surrounded by the Earth Replica Ring.

The large shuttle took off quickly, entered the Holy City of Offa along the long white jade bridge, and then flew all the way to the parking lot of the Offa High Tower.

　　Then the Earth Replication Ring was transported and arrived at Duke's Chief Sage's office above the clouds.

“Director Saston, you are back.” Assistant Director Kannipos Cloud Falcon greeted him, “The advanced replication ring has been packed.”

Saston nodded and said, "Did the boss give you any orders?"

“No, the boss just went to the Union Tower to attend the meeting of stars, and then asked people to pack the advanced replication rings.”

"Okay, I understand." After listening, Thaston turned around and introduced, "This is the boss's guard knight captain, Herdos. He will **** the boss's earth replica ring to replace the advanced replica ring. Please go through the procedures."

"Hello, Captain Herdos, I heard the boss mentioned you." Cannipos Cloud Falcon stretched out his hand and shook hands with Herdos.

"Hello, Assistant Director Cannipos." Herdos greeted him and then asked, "Where is the Earth Replication Ring?"

 “This way.”

"good."

The knights behind him, most of whom were still first-level knights, quickly carried the earth copy ring into the office and placed it at the designated location.

 Having been busy, the formalities are completed.

Heldos didn't stay long, so he put on the advanced copy ring, said goodbye and left. He was led by the office director Saston and quickly headed to the Blue Whale Bay City Flight Station.

Take the battleship No. 3 Ring and begin the return journey amidst the sound of the whistle.

Watching the battleship Three Rings leave, Saston smiled slightly and said to himself: "The boss's earth copy ring has been delivered, and then he can fully participate in the meeting of stars... It is unimaginable that the meeting of stars would make an exception and let a Non-stars join...the boss is mighty!"

He is Duke's chief of staff at Offa's High Tower, a position he had only recently created to assist him with the Prophet's chores.

 There was no need for an office manager originally. Duke could complete most of the prophetic work himself, and the remaining trivial matters could be shared with a team of assistants.

 But after the release of the Ring of Qi Refining, at a regular meeting of the stars, some stars proposed to recruit Duke as a formal member of the meeting of the stars.

 Then, eight Huiyue and thirty-two Morning Stars approved the proposal with almost unanimous votes.

 So Duke became a formal member of the Council of Stars, and the only member of the Council of Stars who was not a member of the Star Council in history.

 Duke was happy to take office.

However, in this way, the half hour of clone time every day in the advanced copy ring is completely insufficient. So Duke planned to replace the advanced replication ring with the earth replication ring, so that the earth clone for more than an hour and a quarter every day was barely enough.

 But he needs someone to share some chores for him. The assistant team is obviously not suitable, and the cultivation level is too low.

 Hence.

Duke has recruited two 4th-ring earth arcane mages. One serves as the director of Duke's Chief Sage Office and is in charge of prophetic affairs; the other serves as the director of Duke's Star Councilor Office and assists him in handling many affairs of the Star Council.

Thuston came to power in this way.

As for Duke's Earth Duplicate Ring, when meetings are held at the Offa Tower, they are placed in the Offa Tower; when meetings at the Stars Conference are held, they are moved to the Union Tower.

Taking the shuttle back to the Arcane Tower, Saston saw the earth replica ring humming in operation, and Duke's earth clone, half lying and half sitting in a sofa chair, was talking.

Not daring to disturb, Saston stood at the door and waited.

However, the voice coming from the optical phone allowed him to quickly recognize the identity of the other party - the boss's assistant director at the Knight's Monastery, Agnes Ice Crown, a 2nd level arcanist and 2nd level fantasy beast. The knight is said to be one of the boss's confidante.

 He had met Agnes Ice Crown once before, when it was Agnes Ice Crown who came to ask Duke for advice on fighting qi cultivation.

 After waiting for a moment, Duke hung up.

Saston immediately stepped forward: "Boss, Captain Herdos and his team have escorted your advanced replication loop back."

"Is it so fast? This Herdos, I let him take a stroll here, he has to rush back in such a hurry."

“Captain Herdos may think that you, boss, are in a hurry to use the advanced replication ring.”

"There is no rush." ​​Duke shook his head, "By the way, how is the research going on with Prophet Zidele? I heard that the most difficult level has been overcome?"

"Yes, the 2nd Ring Arcane Mage uses the Ring of Contract to locate the true spiritual sea. The most difficult obstacle is that the projection effect is weak and the spiritual interference is too great. The Zidel Prophet team has used special noise reduction technology to successfully filter out the spiritual interference and achieve accurate locating."

“Well, in this case, we will soon be able to cast an intermediate copy ring.”

 “Yes, boss.”

 “It's gratifying.” Duke was really happy that he had an intermediate copy ring and a way to contact him anytime and anywhere.

 He has already planned it.

The earth copy ring is placed in the Holy City of Arcane and is responsible for handling official affairs; the high-level copy ring is left at the Duke Sage Mage Tower for easy contact after going out; the ocean copy ring has been promised to be sent to the Snowshirt Palace to play with Princess Tiffany at any time.

The sky replica ring is placed in the battleship No. 3 Ring. Following the trajectory of the battleship, it travels to various parts of the world for investigation and research.

As for the intermediate replica ring that is about to be cast, it will be sent to the Knight Monastery to guide Agnis Ice Crown in her fighting spirit training.

 At the same time, it is also a backup clone, used as a supplement when the time of the earth replication ring is insufficient.

“I don't know how long the intermediate replication ring can last.” Duke touched his chin. “The advanced replication ring only lasts half an hour, and the intermediate replication ring probably lasts for a quarter of an hour at most.”

A quarter of an hour.

 It is equivalent to making a video chat, which is better than nothing.

Just as he was about to chat with Saston about the arrangement of the Earth Replication Ring, there was a knock on the door, and then Cannipos Cloud Falcon led a female arcane mage in: "Boss, Virginia, the secretary of Franny Sanduck Prophet. Visit.”

 “Hello, Lord Duke.” Virginia Merganser bowed and said hello.

She is a descendant of Franny Merganser's family and has been Franny Merganser's secretary. Duke had seen Virginia Merganser frequently when Duke and Franny Merganser were working together.

“Sit down, is Dean Frannie looking for me?”

"Yes, Lord Duke, the boss is being troubled by some Qi Refiners' cultivation issues. Let me see if you are here. If you are here, I can ask you about these issues." Virginia Sanduck said, taking out A list of questions.

Duke took it casually, looked at it, and asked: "Dean Frannie's Moon Phase Chapter, is it going smoothly?"

 “I listened to the boss and it went smoothly.”

"That's good."

Duke is also very concerned about whether Franny Merganser can complete the Moon Phase Chapter and be promoted to the 8th Ring Arcane Tutor.

If the other party is really promoted, 90% of the credit should belong to Duke.

 In the foreseeable future, I am afraid that all the stars will worship him, just to seek the path to the Chapter of the Moon.

 At that time, he will be the uncrowned king among the stars!
