Chapter 193 The Giant of Light is in Action
Xiaohong is a crypt army ant with 5 rings of blood and the queen.
Since she is an ant queen, she naturally needs to build a nest to establish her own ant colony, and Beverly Manor is obviously not a suitable place to build a nest.
"Put it on... Duke James Farm." Duke finally decided on the location.
"But before Xiaohong builds a nest, I have to give it the necessary training to prevent it from harming humans and determine the foraging range. Otherwise, it will be the biggest threat to the farm." After all, Xiaohong is not an individual
.
If it were a separate individual, Duke could take it with him and restrain its inappropriate behavior at any time. However, as the queen of ants, the ant colony established by Xiao Hong can only be controlled by Xiao Hong and is not controlled by Duke.
"Fortunately, it will take another year or two for Xiaohong to truly mature and be able to get married and have children." Duke was able to deduce the time when Xiaohong's body would mature through his understanding of the burrowing army ants.
"Before that, I have to find an opportunity to learn some Gu techniques..."
I gathered my thoughts.
He just went back to bed to sleep.
In the next two days, Duke went to work as usual. Because the office was on the same floor, he occasionally met Kilia Furious Waves.
The two just smiled and said hello to each other, without any further communication.
"How can a mere beauty mess with my heart?" He walked to the floor-to-ceiling window facing the north of the office and looked at a construction site in the distance.
There was even a telescope specially prepared.
Pick up the telescope and inspect the construction site carefully.
You can see countless puppets, either driven by people or controlled by people, working intensively to build factories.
This is the factory of the Giant of Light Spirit Weapon Company.
"It's very good. At this speed, by the end of May, the factory will be officially put into operation and mass-produce portable lamps." Money can make all the difference. As long as you are willing to pay the golden dragon and invest in more puppets, the factory can be put into production in two months. .
Dang Dang Dang.
Mulali walked in: "Sir, Mr. Shanfeisi is here to visit."
"Shanfeisi is here?" Duke was surprised, "Please come in."
"Hey, Duke, you didn't expect it, I came to see you." As soon as Shanfeisi entered the door, he shouted, "You are such a lucky boy, you live on the same floor as the beautiful girl of heaven. All my dreams these days are about her!" The lifelong goal of eating soft rice
is It is normal for Shanfeis to miss Kiria Furious Waves.
Duke narrowed his eyes. In fact, in the past two days, he had occasionally dreamed of Kylia, participating in some unspeakable scene.
A graceful lady, a gentleman is fond of quarrels.
This is human nature.
"Why are you here? Have you chosen a new mage tower?" Duke asked, putting aside some distracting thoughts in his mind.
"I have no clue. I studied card making for two years and then gave up all of a sudden. I really don't know what new direction to choose." Shanfeisi said, putting the things in his hands on the table, "You asked me to evaluate it for you. I have already evaluated the portable lamp."
"Oh, how is it?"
"It is better than the Lingfeng lamp, more convenient to carry, and the lighting effect is better. I also took a night walk at night, and it was better than the Lingfeng lamp in terms of lighting the road. The wind lantern is so much better. I believe that if we produce this, we will definitely not worry about sales." "
Your evaluation greatly increases my confidence." "
Hey, let's not talk about it, how about Kylia?" Shanfeis just took the portable lantern. As an introduction, all the attention is on the beauty.
"What's it like?"
"Looks, personality, figure..."
Seeing the piggy look on Shanfeisi's face, Duke felt a little disgusted for some reason. He had never done this before helping Shanfeis make an appointment with Joanna Bobcat. a feeling.
"Maybe...it's possessiveness." Duke thought in his mind.
On the surface, he said calmly: "Sanfisi, it's useless to ask about this. You can't grasp a lady like Kilia at all." "How do you know that
I can't grasp it!"
"This is based on my many years of life experience. Judgment."
Shanfeisi sneered: "You are only seventeen years old. What life experience do you have? There are endless stories about rich girls and poor boys. How do you know you are not talking about me?" "
Because Kiriya has eyes."
"What if she's blind?"
"Then I have nothing to say." Duke resisted the urge to roll his eyes, feeling that Shanfeis was hopeless.
Shanfeis stared at Duke carefully, and after a while, he suddenly realized: "I understand, no wonder you are so rude today. It turns out that you are just like me, and you have intentions for Kiriya... I'm just saying, you The ambition is no less than mine."
Duke was noncommittal.
Shanfeis stared at Duke angrily at first, and then withered as if a balloon had been popped. He sighed and said: "Compared to me, except that you are a little younger, you are indeed better than me in every aspect, especially Your looks have the potential to be a pretty boy."
"Although it's not a nice thing to say, after all, you still have a certain degree of self-awareness." Duke gave Shanfeisi a middle finger.
"Forget it, brother, I won't argue with you anymore, Kiriya is yours!" Shanfeis made the decision and felt relaxed all of a sudden.
Duke said: "Kilia is not anyone's, she is herself. I just miss her a little bit, but not much. At this stage, practicing and making money are more important than falling in love, but we can't Reverse the priorities."
"This is the idea of a genius arcane mage like you. For me, finding a good woman to start a family and start a career is the most important thing." "
Is the spiritual arcana magic no longer good?"
"Forget it. I'm too lazy to say it anymore. I'm leaving and I will never come to this sad place again." Shanfeisi left lightly.
Come when you want and leave when you want.
At this moment, Duke felt that Shanfeis was living a pretty free and easy life, a bit like him in his previous life, eating and playing whenever he wanted.
But he has had enough fun on Earth, and now Duke just wants to find another way to realize his self-worth in this magnificent extraordinary world.
...
"After you go back, study more about the Arcane Shield. This is your wonder. Combining the structure of the wonder will help you make the Arcane Shield card more intuitively." "Yes, instructor." Returning from class in Penrose's
office
, Duke then applied for a batch of blank spiritual cards and a batch of special spiritual materials, and returned to his office to study them carefully.
"Xiaoyi, have you summarized what the instructor said?"
"Yes, Master."
"Then let's get started and try to make the Arcane Shield Spirit Card as soon as possible." Duke started to work, first of all, he had to prepare Spiritual material.
The spell model of the arcane card cannot be carved solely by psychic energy.
The spirituality and spiritual energy of special spiritual materials must be blended to form spiritual power with special attributes to draw energy lines.
The operation is more than ten times more complicated than that of a civilian card.
He and Xiaoyi needed a lot of exploration to sum up the successful experience of making arcane cards. Every spiritual card that was melted after failure would provide a little experience.
"Failed!"
"Come again!"
"Master, I recommend that you use the blackhorn goat's beard solution, mix spiritual energy in a ratio of 1:3, and extract the goat's beard spiritual power to draw energy lines." "No problem.
"
Duke Directly use the psychic pen to absorb a little goat's whisker solution, and then pour your own psychic energy into the psychic pen to form a new spiritual power - goat's whisker spiritual power.
Then insert the psychic pen deep into the ring pressure device and draw a new energy line along the trajectory of the previous energy line.
The ring pressing instrument works to press the energy line into the card core position and connect it with the previous energy line.
"There is no collapse, beautiful, we have succeeded one step further." Duke smiled with satisfaction, "Hurry up and analyze the success factors, and then we will move to the next step."
Failed again and again, succeeded little by little.
Duke had forgotten the existence of time until the assistant knocked on the door and came in: "Boss, Malotav Sage Mage Tower, a package sent to you." "
Help me open it." Duke was drawing a new spiritual map. Card.
"Okay." Mulali quickly opened the package. Inside was a sample magazine and a letter, "Sir, the latest issue of "Runwu City Lingka" sample magazine, and a letter addressed to you. Letter, your paper has been published!"
Puff.
A wisp of white smoke came out of the spirit card in the ring pressure device. Duke's expression remained calm, he clapped his hands and took the letter.
The letter is a uniformly formatted thank you letter, in the name of the editorial office, thanking Duke for submitting the paper.
However, looking at the words of thanks above, Duke's frustration at the failure to produce the card suddenly improved: "It took more than a month and it was finally released."
He put down the thank you letter and flipped through the latest issue of "Runwu City Spirit Cards" 》Sample issue.
I found the location of my paper on the contents page. It was in the middle of the express section, not very far forward or very far back.
"It's not a paper, it's just a report..." Duke felt a little regretful.
Generally speaking, academic journals such as "Runwucheng Lingka" do not publish the full text of every reviewed paper, but only extract part of it. Such excerpts fall into the category of express papers. Only papers with sufficient impact will be published in full.
After thinking about it carefully, Duke felt relieved. His paper had nothing new, it just had some practical value for reference.
Follow the table of contents index and turn to the corresponding page.
"Analysis of practical spiritual materials for novel spiritual beasts in Cuihai Valley", correspondence, author - Duke, address - Master Penrose Tower.
There are two pages in total, excerpting the main contents of the paper, as well as the valuable experimental data on spiritual materials.
At the end of the article, a small note was attached: "This article has been collected in the Faling Tower of Runwu City and the Faling Tower of Shenjiao City. The author is Master Penrose Tower of Shenjiao City - an Austrian law scholar based in the tower, and the correspondence of Master Penrose Tower The address is as follows..."
After reading the content, Duke closed the sample journal and handed it to Mulali: "Put it on my bookshelf and leave it in a separate row." "Understood
. Sir, this is the first paper you have published, and it has great commemorative significance." "
It's just a casual paper, not worth mentioning." Duke said modestly, and suddenly changed the topic and asked , "Has the Mage Tower subscribed to the journal "Runwu City Spirit Card"?"
"Subscribed."
"Well, when this issue is released, you can go to the Mage Tower to order a few more copies for the tutor, guidance assistant and a few others. All the arcane mages were sent over for their evaluation."
"Yeah!" Mulali nodded solemnly.
Even if Duke didn't order such an honorable thing, she would still publicize it widely and let Duke's colleagues take a good look at it.
Especially giving a copy to Kylia Furious Waves.
Let the other party understand that your husband is also a proud man of heaven. He can be promoted quickly in practice, cast arcane spells quickly, learn card making quickly, and publish papers equally quickly.
Do anything quickly!
"Ms. Kilia and Mr. Kilia are like a perfect match, but their personal relationship is a bit dull. I have to help sort it out." "Ms. Kilia is so
approachable. If she can become Mr.'s wife, I, as Mr. My lover, life should be easy for you... Hee hee, I really look forward to that day coming... But my husband is really a fool, and the method my aunt taught me didn't work!" Pat
.
I got a blast on my head.
Duke frowned and looked at the assistant: "What are you thinking? I asked you to put the journals away, why don't you put them away?" "Oh,
I'll go right away." Mulali secretly stuck out her tongue and said quickly Run away.
Duke looked at her frizzy look and couldn't help but smile: "A little girl from a noble family has never endured hardship, so she is not steady enough in her work... But it is enough to be pleasing to the eye." The sixteen-year-old girl has been growing in stature in recent days
. Very good.
The little butt twists and turns, quite attractive.
Withdrawing his gaze, Duke put aside his distracting thoughts and continued to devote himself to the experiment of making the arcane shield spirit card, concentrating on it.
...
"Ms. Kiliya, my husband recently published a paper and asked me to show it to you for a taste." Murali placed the brand new "Runwu City Spirit Card" on the table.
Along with it, there is a printed copy of the entire paper.
Kiriya smiled gently and said: "Congratulations Duke, you published the paper so quickly. I will definitely read and research it carefully." "
Then I won't disturb you. Goodbye."
When Murali left, Kiriya's The assistant, a middle-aged woman, chuckled and said, "Miss, it's amazing that Duke Duke can publish a paper at such a young age." "
Yes."
"I asked, he has nine exclusive meditation methods. Vision, and it has been reorganized very early, and he has also understood the guardian vine of mystery." "
Speaking of this, I really admire him, his understanding is so good." Kiriya frowned slightly, "I have been around since I was a child. Just playing in the Union Tower, I still haven’t been able to comprehend the Guardian and Mysterious Vine, and I’ve only been able to comprehend two visions using the meditation method.” “When
Miss, you reorganize the exclusive meditation method, there will be six types of visions, which is already very long. Not bad." said the assistant.
"Only six kinds. More than the best, more than the worst."
"Miss, I have watched you grow up. The adults in the family say that your talent is most like that of the master, and the master is best at accumulating. Miss, you will definitely be able to accumulate as much as possible." ." The assistant said with a smile, "A temporary gain or loss is nothing."
"I'm not discouraged, Aunt Jisi." Kiriya responded, "I have always been praised since I was a child, and now I have someone to chase. , but I am very happy."
"Yes, this Lord Duke, like that Lidman mentor, are true scholars who sincerely study the spiritual arcana, and they will definitely achieve something. Unlike other people who follow the crowd. Too eager, especially that counselor Vikas.”
"Assistant Vikas is a little too enthusiastic, but he can grasp the limits. With him, you can get some convenience in all aspects." "
Miss, you are so smart and can understand everything." Assistant Jisi said, " I feel relieved and can concentrate on taking care of your daily life."
Kylia then looked at the "Runwu City Spirit Card" on the table.
Turning to the middle, I found Duke's paper, and then opened the newly printed full paper that smelled of ink.
A thirteen-page paper is not very long.
After a while, Kiliya finished reading, put down the paper, held her cheek with one hand, and looked at the scenery outside the window, thinking: "The paper is a bit boring, and the meticulousness between the lines is very much like the Duke's personality. "
More than a week has passed since she came to study at Master Penrose Tower.
Every day, except for eating and getting off work, I don't see Duke at all. He is either in the office or in the laboratory.
"I am really obsessed with spiritual arcana."
She said with emotion.
However, Duke, the object of emotion, did not stay in the Mage Tower today to indulge in spiritual arcana. Instead, he went to the Duke James Farm.
"Boss James, you've been visiting Snakehead Town a lot lately. What's going on there? Are the mercenaries still crowded in the town?" "
Isn't that right? The streets are in such chaos that the Black Jade Horseshoe Crab Dragon can't be hunted for a day without being hunted. The Cuihai Valley side couldn't recover in just one day, and all fifteen safe camps were abandoned. Alas, we'll have to reopen safe camps at some point."
James sighed a little.
He also plans to use Duke's reputation to flex his muscles in the future Cuihai Town and become a farm tycoon.
Now it seems that the establishment of Cuihai Town seems to be far away.
"It's not easy to hunt down the Black Jade Horseshoe Crab. You should focus here for the time being." "
That's all."
"How is the growth of Jade Dew?" Duke walked in the farm shed, and Xiaoyi hung up the breathing method. , and have a clear view of the surrounding situation.
But you still have to ask.
James replied: "The situation is very good. There are already the first batch of Yulu, which have been infected by Ji Yulu and become 0-ring spiritual plants. I plan to use Ji Yulu as the center of the circle and divide it into three areas outwards. The outer layer only needs to evolve to 0-ring. Just sell it. The middle layer will be sold after it has evolved to level 0 and can sort out the aura. The inner layer will be sold after it has evolved to level 1."
He then pointed to the greenhouse where Ji Yulu was planted: "As for the jade dew in this greenhouse, I don't plan to sell it. Raising them, if they can reach level 2, will also be of great help to Ji Yulu's own evolution." "
Well, this is a good plan." Duke agreed.
Then he talked about his purpose: "Look at the western boundary of the farm, plan a piece of land to build a breeding greenhouse, and I plan to raise a group of ants here." "Raising ants?" "Burrowing army
ants
, I recently contracted A queen of burrowing army ants is preparing to tame the ant colony in the way of controlling beetles." "
Well, sir, can these ants bite people?" James' body shook invisibly, "burrowing army ants are... It is a very dangerous existence. If it goes crazy, all the workers on our farm combined will not have enough to eat."
He has experienced the insect invasion in Sheshou Town and has seen many farmers being swallowed up by the ant colonies, with not even the dregs left. .
"I won't take the safety of the workers as a joke. I will tame the queen ants in advance and put them here to breed. Then you can comfort the workers and give them some extra wages." Duke said, "You just have to plan the land. Now, I will arrange for someone to build a breeding greenhouse."
Burrowing army ants live underground, and Duke will dig an underground breeding area and then come over to train the ant colony himself.
"I understand. I will plan the breeding greenhouse according to your instructions." James responded.
While they were chatting, a group of knights came galloping from a distance.
Duke looked over.
James immediately said: "It's Captain Vivian, training your knight guard, as if practicing some kind of combined attack formation." "I
know."
This was Duke's idea.
After the last insect invasion, Vivian served as the captain of the Knight Guard, but failed to protect Duke, so she asked to go to get off work with Duke every day.
Duke didn't agree. He came to Penrose Mage Tower to work, not to perform.
However, Vivian insisted strongly and did not want to live in the villa and eat and drink for free. Unable to overcome her stubbornness, Duke asked her to go with him during the day, but the destination was arranged to be Duke James Farm, where knight training would be conducted.
Once something happens, you can rush to the mage tower for protection as soon as possible.
"Sir!" Vivian led the team to fly over, and she had already seen Duke.
Behind her were five great knights, all of whom she had recently recruited, three men and two women, who had been carefully screened before staying.
Not every great knight has the opportunity to protect an arcane mage.
"Thank you for your hard work. Vivian will follow me and the others will continue training." Duke motioned to Vivian to stay and patrol the farm with him.
A round of inspection.
Duke declined James's dinner invitation, took Vivian with him, and took the shuttle to his other property, the Giant of Light Spirit Weapon Company.
"Mr. Duke, this is the latest concept portable lamp." Vuillard glanced at his daughter standing behind Duke, and concentrated on explaining the latest product of the company's R&D department, "After integrating the built-in spiritual storage card, The cost cannot be reduced, so we can only take the high-end route."
Duke motioned to his entourage to get a few portable lamps, preparing to find opportunities to give them away to advertise the portable lamps.
The little assistant Mulali also got a portable lamp: "It's so beautiful, sir."
Vuillard glanced at Mulali again. Compared with his daughter, who seemed rigid, this Duke's personal assistant was just... Be bubbly and much more lovable.
This made him feel a little sad.
I can only think on the bright side: "Vivian's down-to-earth personality is more reassuring and her figure is better. Perhaps these are more attractive to Mr. Duke."
Take heart.
He continued to listen to Duke's speech. Duke, who said he was not involved in the company's operations, had many opinions: "Don't just focus on portable lights. I think that in the early stage, if the company wants to open the market as soon as possible, it must start with big customers, such as Xibidi Ling." Mining Company."
"Do you mean to sell mining lamps and headlamps to Xibiti Ling Mining Company?" "
Yes, the mining lamps and headlamps we designed have very obvious advantages for underground operations. Xibiti's Buyers are not fools, they know how to choose." "
I will ask the R&D department to produce different designed lamps as soon as possible, and then arrange people to sell them to major organizations." "
Send me the headlamps and miner's lamps . I will go back and sell it directly to Lord Erwin." Duke said.
The chief director of the Erudite Tower and the director of the Xibidi Spirit Mine Company, Master Erwin of the Earth, had recruited him twice.
Although Duke did not intend to change his family, since the other party favored him so much, it would not be a friendly response to sell his products to him.
"Although I don't work under you, I am still promoting the study of natural history." Duke thought in his mind, "As a senior in the study of natural history, I would like to help the juniors, which is what the title says. How about purchasing a batch of miner's lamps and head lamps?" Isn’t it appropriate for the occasion?”
Upon hearing the name of Erwin’s Earth Arcane Mage, Vial immediately exclaimed: “If the lamp can be presented on Lord Erwin’s desk, the reputation of the Giant of Light Spirit Weapon Company will surely rise and become a A household name brand!"
To put it bluntly, if there is a live broadcast here with goods, Erwin will definitely be the top one.
The public may not have heard of the name Christian Raging Waves, but they definitely know who Erwin of the Erudite Tower is.
If any spiritual weapon is listed as "recommended by Lord Erwin", people will make a mindless choice.
Duke then warned: "If you want to include Mr. Erwin in the publicity plan, you must first submit it to me for review, and then I will approve it before publicizing it." "Mr. Duke, please rest assured, it involves a
great Arcane Mage, we will never dare to mess around." Vial said cautiously.
"In short, I will do my part in publicity and help the company get on the right track as soon as possible, but you must ensure the quality of the products and don't embarrass me." What Duke wants is to become bigger and stronger, not to make quick success. One stroke and away.
Viard solemnly guarantees that product quality will be the first priority.
Duke then left with satisfaction.
On the way back to the mage tower in the shuttle, he said to Vivian: "In the future, the guard knights can make an extra trip to the Giant of Light Spirit Weapon Company to help guard the place and prevent young people from coming over. Destroy."
Business competition is often plain and simple.
Runwanjia Spiritual Weapon Factory, which has already monopolized the city's spiritual weapon market, may not be willing to see the rise of the giant of light, even if it only produces a single lamp.
It's perfectly normal to send someone over to do some damage.
