MTL - Studying Science in the Alternate World-Chapter 205 it's all for your own good

  Chapter 205 is all for your own good

   Illusion arcane is really amazing.

  Duke wandered around in the tower of the Penrose mage, and except for the arcanist, he was almost invisible to others.

  Even a ring 1 great knight needs to be fully concentrated in order to detect the traces of Duke's passing through subtle spiritual fluctuations.

   And facing the Arcane Mage of the 1st ring, as long as Duke stands still, Balza, Blanc, Orianna and others will not be able to find it. But as long as Duke moves, they can immediately perceive the abnormal fluctuation of spirituality and accurately locate Duke's figure.

   As for facing the 2-ring Arcane Mage, Duke couldn't hide from their perception even if he stood still.

   "It's the breath of the arcane. The 2nd-level arcanist interacts with the spirituality of the outside world all the time, and detects all the information carried by the surrounding spirituality. Therefore, as long as your illusion arcane can't deceive the ubiquitous spirituality, you can't hide it from my perception." Vikas explained the reason.

   "What about spirit beasts?"

   "Spirit beasts with ring 4 and above can also interact with the surrounding spirits, but the interaction is not strong, so if the spirit beasts are not vigilant, they can be concealed by the illusion. But if the spirit beasts are highly alert or consciously search, the illusion is difficult to work."

   "I see." Duke nodded in understanding.

   Illusory Arcane Art is a good disguise, but you must not rely on this disguise to feel that you can sneak under the eyes of spirit beasts.

  However, in a critical situation, it is not difficult to throw off the pursuit of spirit beasts by using illusion arcane magic and other camouflage. After all, not all spirit beasts can maintain a high level of vigilance and accurately track every spiritual particle around them in a combat state.

   As an auxiliary type of arcane art, illusion is good enough.

   And with Duke's development of Illusion Arcane, its value will further increase.

  During the whole day, he didn't study and experiment seriously. He was basically exploring the application of the illusion. It is basically confirmed that the functions of the illusion arcane are divided into "smear" and "copy".

  Relying on changes in the surrounding light and shadow, as well as spirituality, objects can be hidden, as if painted out from the real world.

  At the same time, all light and shadow effects can be copied within the scope of the arcane magic of the illusion. For example, a cup can be copied in the illusion. Two identical cups, or even three, five, or even a hundred can be copied, but it cannot create a toothbrush that did not exist.

  Duke did an experiment. After he cast the illusion, he "smeared" himself, then "duplicated" another self, let the other self pretend to walk, and then stood in place.

   Successfully fooled everyone.

   Including several 1st ring arcanists.

   Even in an experiment, even the assistant Vikas was accidentally recruited.

   "Although I can interact with the outside world all the time, who has so much energy to analyze what the surrounding environment looks like... You guys don't use me as an experimental subject. I am already very old and my five senses are no longer sharp. You might as well go to Leadman for an experiment."

  Vikas made an excuse for himself, and then encouraged Duke to experiment with Leadman.

  Duke really went.

  Standing at the door of the laboratory, he cast an illusion, "duplicated" himself, walked over and smiled at Leadman.

  Liedman, who was doing the experiment, looked up at the cloned Duke, frowned and asked, "What's the matter, I'm busy."

   "Director Leadman, I'm here to ask a question." The copied Duke made a voice.

  The illusion can distort even the light and shadow, not to mention the mere sound vibrations. In the magic area of ​​the illusion, Duke can distort his own voice to any position at will.

   "Speak." Leadman replied reluctantly.

   Immediately, he seemed to have discovered something, frowned and glanced at the copied Duke, then turned his head suddenly to look at the door of the laboratory.

   His face darkened all of a sudden, and he said in a cold voice, "Duke, are you here to tease me?"

   "Sorry, Assistant, I have just built the Illusory Arcane Wonder, and I am still figuring out how to use it. I just have a question to ask you for advice."

   "It's not fun, and I'm not interested in accompanying you, so go find someone else." Leadman suppressed his anger and waved Duke away.

   "Okay." Before Leadman got angry, it was better for Duke to leave first.

  But he was very proud in his heart. If the illusion was used properly, he could indeed deceive the 2nd ring arcanist, so there was a great possibility to deceive the 4th ring and above Eudemons.

   After all, how can the perception ability of spirit beasts surpass that of high-level arcanists.

   "When Mentor Penrose comes back, I will experiment in front of him." Duke left in a cool manner.

  Leadman in the laboratory quickly put away his gloomy expression. In fact, he was not angry, nor would he be angry about such a trivial matter.

  He just doesn't like socializing with people.

   "Duke..." Leadman pondered for a moment, "It took him more than two hundred days to complete the wonder of the arcane shield, and he built the wonder of the illusion. This speed...is it really only a genius arcanist? It's really frustrating!"

   Among arcane mages, he is already considered talented.

  However, when compared with Duke, I immediately feel that the world is full of malice, and no matter how much sweat is swayed, it cannot compare with talent.

   "Huh."

  Leadman let out a foul breath, and his eyes became firm again: "It doesn't matter that he is a genius arcane master, I just need to pursue my spiritual arcana!"

"Continue to study!"

   No longer thinking about things, Leadman once again concentrated on his experimental subject.

  …

   "Arcane shield, illusion, two kinds of instant arcane, the hand of the mage is also proficient, these three arcane, 1 environment is enough."

  Duke felt that he should be invincible among the 1st ring arcanists.

  The main reason is that he has a super-powerful arcane weapon called Sand Eagle in his hand. It can kill even 4-ring spirit beasts, and killing a 1-ring arcane mage is also easy to catch.

   As for killing a 2nd-level Arcane Mage, it depends on what instant-cast arcane spells the 2nd-level Arcane Mage has.

  If there is a defensive type of instant arcane, it is not necessarily possible to rely on bullets to penetrate the defense. Once it is blocked by a 2-ring arcanist, the means of counterattack is enough for Duke to drink a pot.

   "Secretary Levsky, is the tutor still in the office?" Duke walked around the Mage Tower and went to the top floor.

  Lewski was reading the newspaper on the sofa outside, and immediately responded after hearing the words: "Your Excellency is taking a rotation break with Tower today, and is correcting documents in the office."

   "Oh, I have a question for my mentor."

   "I pass it on for you."

  Lewski knocked on the office door and soon got Penrose's promise.

  So Duke entered the office, immediately cast the Illusion Arcana, copied himself and walked to the desk, while he stood at the door without moving.

   But the next moment.

  Mentor Penrose squinted his eyes and looked towards the door: "I'm ashamed to use this trivial trick in front of me, so put it away quickly."

   "Hehe." Duke didn't feel embarrassed, and took advantage of the situation to disperse the illusion arcane.

   Asked another small question about card making, then took his leave and left.

  He has already tested the results. In front of the 3rd-level arcanist, the 1st-level illusion arcane has no slight success rate of camouflage.

  Three ring arcane mages can already see through the reality of spirituality.

  Leaving Penrose Mage Tower, Duke went straight to the Duke-James Farm not far away, and he would make time to visit every few days.

  One is to use the breathing method as a 2-ring elf envoy, and provide breath resonance with the 2-ring elf Ji Yulu, the spiritual plant, and many Yulu, to help these spiritual plants evolve.

  The second is to cast spells on the Chuixuezhu seedlings to help them grow better.

  The farm has a special area for planting Chuuxuezhu, which encloses more than 500 acres of land. Unfortunately, the real Chuuxuezhu doesn't even have an area of ​​10 acres.

   This is also thanks to the seeded snow-blossom tree sent by Leadman.

  The Fuxuezhu planted by cuttings, divisions, etc. are basically dead, and only the Fuxuezhu grown from seeds can continue to grow.

   "My lord, the growth of the Fuxuezhu looks good, but compared with the samples of the Fuxuezhu sent by Broken Sword, I found that they have degraded seriously. Even if they grow up, they may not achieve the effect you envisioned, my lord." James said regretfully.

  The Broken Sword mercenary group has been around the No. 3 well area, searching for more Chuuxuezhu to send over.

  Duke has already started to see this: "Continue to plant. After Chuuxuezhu loses its resistance to evil spirits, the decline in quality is a predictable result. But we don't care if it falls or not, we will continue to plant. There will always be a plant that retains the 'spiritual pool' gene I need!"

  The red worm tentacles of Chuixuezhu contain a lot of mixed spirituality, which is an excellent raw material for spiritual materials.

  Duke named the genes that can store mixed spirituality in the tentacles of red worms the spirit pool, which means the pool for storing spirituality.

  Planting Chuuxuezhu is to obtain the spirit pool gene.

   "Yes, my lord, I will keep your instructions in mind, carefully cultivate Chuuxuezhu, and strive to cultivate the spirit pool gene as soon as possible."

   "Cultivated, you and I will get rich, and the value of Lingchi Chuixuezhu will not be much worse than Yulu."

   "I know that very well." James nodded. As a ring 1 Great Spirit Plant Envoy, he can naturally clearly understand the value of Fuxuezhu.

  After casting the spell, Duke didn't stay any longer, and just said goodbye and left.

  The whole day was so busy.

  After returning to the Suktara Master Tower, it was time to change clothes. The dining table was already full, and Aunt Virginie had cooked dishes according to his taste.

  Little assistant Mu Lali, captain of the guard knight Vivian, accompanied him to enjoy the food.

   Butler Morris stood aside, and took advantage of the meal time to communicate with Duke for a while: "Master, the Mage Tower has been in turmoil for the past two days, and many management positions have been changed, especially the management staff of the Su Clan. Most of them have been ripped off, and even some of the Su Clan staff have been dismissed from the Mage Tower."

   "Huh?" Duke asked while eating, "Have you found out why these people were replaced?"

   "I made indirect comments on the chief steward Su Li and others. It seems that Master Suktala ordered that the Su family no longer support idlers."

   "This is strange. These members of the Su family are all relatives of the teacher. There is no reason to drive them out?" Duke didn't quite understand.

  The Mage Tower and the castle are integrated, which is equivalent to the home of the Arcane Mage.

  Family must live at home, of course.

   There is no reason to kick the family out and leave the mage tower and castle to professionals.

   It makes sense to say that the Mage Tower is managed by professionals. After all, the Mage Tower is a special existence integrating industry, education and research. But the basic function of the castle is to serve the arcanist and his family. Most of the arcanists who own the tower of the arcanist will live in the castle.

   "Sir, I don't know." Butler Morris shook his head.

  Vivian didn't have the slightest interest in these trivial matters, and concentrated on eating the food on her plate.

  Mulali said with great interest: "Sir, could it be the members of the Su clan who offended Lord Suktara? These members of the Su clan are originally Lord Suktara, and they are adopted brothers and descendants. There is a layer of kinship between them."

  Duke thinks it makes sense.

  But he scolded: "Do your job well as an assistant, and put the rest of your mind on cultivation. These things are not your concern."

   "Oh, I know." Mu Lali dragged out her voice.

  Duke said to Morris again: "Restrain everyone, try to stay in Tower 2 as much as possible, and avoid unnecessary troubles caused by going out during this time."

  Although Suktra treated him well, he was dependent on others after all, and Duke didn't want to be misunderstood.

  Morris replied: "Master, don't worry, I will restrain the servants."

  Vivian suddenly raised her head and asked, "Do you want to change the training place for the knight guard team? Su's guard knight team has not been very friendly these two days, and there have been several frictions with us."

  Since Duke moved here, there was a big enough playground in the castle, so he asked Vivian to change the training to the castle playground.

   "What kind of friction?"

   "Some verbal greetings, and then a few charge competitions. There were losses and wins. It can be seen that some of the big knights on the other side are a bit angry."

   "Really." Duke squinted his eyes, "Let's go to the farm instead, and I will change back after I find a chance to talk to the teacher."

   "Okay." After Vivienne finished speaking, she focused on the food again.

  After dinner, Duke went to Tower 1 as usual to learn alchemy knowledge from Teacher Suktara, and the teaching atmosphere was as harmonious as ever.

   After the break, Duke smiled and said, "Teacher, the atmosphere in the Mage Tower has been a bit serious these two days."

   "Did you feel something?" Suktara had a kind smile on his face.

   "A little bit, Morris told me that a lot of people have changed in the castle."

   "Yes, a lot of people have been changed." Suktara seemed to be talking about a topic that was not related to him, and his tone was very indifferent, "The tower was made into a mess. I didn't have the energy to clean it up before, but now I have some energy, so I let someone clean it up."

   "I see." Duke stopped, saying nothing more.

   After resting, continue to follow Suktara in class, like a dry sponge, desperately absorbing every drop of knowledge.

  Teaching until eleven o'clock in the evening.

  The housekeeper Su Li knocked on the door, interrupting the teaching of the old and the young: "Madam, it's late at night."

   "Why is it so early at night." Suktara murmured unsatisfactorily, and then smiled at Duke, "Go and rest, kid, we will continue tomorrow night."

   "Okay teacher, you should go to bed earlier." Duke said goodbye and left.

  Suktara's gentle expression gradually turned serious, and he looked at Butler Su Li: "During the rectification, some people made trouble?"

   "What do you mean?" Su Li asked cautiously.

   "Duke, is someone targeting Duke, or targeting Duke's servants?" Suktara sneered, "Don't dare to lose your temper with an old woman like me, so you dare to vent your anger at what they think are outsiders, right?"

  Su Li pondered for a while, and said, "I will restrain them."

   "Sully, listen to me too."

   "Old lady, just give orders, Su Li only has you as the master in his heart, and Su Li will carry out 100% of your orders."

   "I understand your loyalty." Suktara nodded slightly, "My clansmen, let alone not my immediate family members, even if they are my immediate family members, they can't inherit my research in spiritual arcana... But Duke is different, he is my hope."

  Give Sully a time to digest.

   Then Suktara said gently: "In my life, my research is the most important thing. Whoever can inherit it will be my relatives, understand."

   "Understood, Su Li already understood." Butler Su Li nodded solemnly.

   "Go to work, such a sensible child, I don't want him to be disturbed in the process of passing on my knowledge."

   "As you wish." Su Li bowed and exited the room.

  …

   "Your Excellency Sorel, the grandma is really confused." Facing the second-ring arcanist Sorel, Sulaier poured out his bitterness.

  Sorrell is a student of Suktara and the only assistant of the Mage Tower.

  However, his research direction is the life box, which is regarded as the field of life, not the field of alchemy, so he cannot take over Suktara's class.

  Sorrell taught the lesson without pain or itching: "How can you say that the teacher is confused, too big or small."

   "Aren't I in a hurry to get angry? You have also seen that the grandma is too heartless. She directly drove the members of the Su clan out. This is clearly to vacate the cage to change the bird, to make room for Duke, so that the mage tower and the castle can be replaced by masters!"

   "The teacher naturally has her reasons for making such a decision."

   "Don't say that." Su Laier glanced at Sorel, and said bluntly, "You are also a student of my grandma, and you are still a 2-ring arcane mage, so you would like to see my grandma give everything about the sorcerer's tower to an outsider?"

  Sorrell pondered and said: "If the teacher really decides to do so, as a student, I can only respect her decision."

   "Stop, stop!" Su Laier looked at the pretentious Sorel, and went straight to the point, "Just tell me what you need to do to help us Su Clan members... Stop perfunctory me, we are driven away, can you get any benefits?"

   "Hiss..." Sorrell still refused to speak.

   "Grandma's posture, once Duke has some achievements, even if there is only a little hope, grandma will inherit all the mage tower and castle to Duke. Of course we, the Su clan, will not be able to do well. As a student of grandma, what good will you gain by serving grandma for half your life?"

   After Su Laier spoke dryly and upset.

   Sorel, who was silent for a long time, suddenly said: "I want the Mage Tower!"

   "Huh?" Su Laier was taken aback, and then flew into a rage, "Your appetite is really big. If you give it to you, we Su clansmen might as well go to Duke directly. Anyway, the result will be the same."

   "Listen to me." Sorel said calmly, "I want this mage tower, and the castle will be handed over to you members of the Su clan. The two parties have made a contract, and they will never regret it in their lifetime."

   "No, no, no, the mage tower must not be taken by you alone, the castle is only worth a few dollars! We want the mage tower, and the castle will be given to you." Su Laier is not relaxed about killing him. He is not the only one who has the final say on the members of the Su clan. The value of the castle cannot satisfy everyone's appetite.

  After all, members of the Su clan have always regarded themselves as the masters of this mage tower and supporting castles, and it was not until Duke appeared that they felt a sense of crisis.

   It's just a sense of crisis.

  This sense of crisis is not enough to make the Su clan give up their ownership of the Mage Tower.

   "You have also seen that the teacher's decision is obviously that everything will be handed over to Duke. If I don't make a move, you will get nothing." Sorel sat firmly on the Diaoyutai.

   "You...can you just watch the Suktara Mage Tower and hand it over to outsiders?"

  Sorrell sneered: "The tower is not mine, why should I offend another arcanist and fight for the interests of the Su clan?"

"this…"

  Su Laier was sweating profusely, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I have to go back and discuss it with everyone."

   "Walk slowly, come to me after you think about it."

  After Suleil left, in the empty office, Sorel poured himself half a glass of red wine, shaking his eyes while meditating.

  He is studying the field of life, which has already deviated from the field of alchemy.

  The reason why they still stay in the Suktara Mage Tower is self-evident, and it is for the Mage Tower itself.

   "Teacher, teacher, you have given up on it. You have given up everything for another twenty years, why did you suddenly change your mind?" Sorel said softly to himself, "I have waited all these years just to serve you well and then take over your inheritance!"

   "What ring copying materials, such an illusory subject, you are still obsessed with it. The method of the great arcanist is that you can easily shake it, so that ordinary arcanists can also learn the ring of projection?"

"so."

   "I must shatter your illusions, and let you leave this world without regrets, instead of finding another liar to cheat your old foundation." Sorel took a sip of the red wine, which was bitter and astringent, and the quality was quite poor, but he just took a sip.

  Bitter wine entered his throat, making him shiver comfortably.

  I feel that the whole person is energetic: "You haven't cultivated an arcane mage for the people of the Su clan in your old life. It can be seen that the teaching ability is the same. I should inherit all this. Don't worry, I have a lot of good seedlings in the Suo clan. I will definitely carry forward the Suktara mage tower!"

"No."

   "At that time, it should be called Sorel's Mage Tower!"

  Dangdang.

  The assistant knocked on the door outside: "My lord, Secretary Subotan is looking for you."

   "Ask him to come in."

   "Your Excellency Sorel." Subbotan walked in generously. He is the secretary who has followed Suktarah for many years. "My lord, please go over."

  Secretaries, assistants, and housekeepers are all service personnel around the Arcane Master, but their job functions are different.

  Sorrell nodded: "I see, just pack up and go."

   "Then I won't bother."

  After Subotan left, Sorel looked in the mirror, rubbed his face, and then showed a gentle and elegant smile.

   Then he got up and left the office, and took the spiritual ladder to Suktara's office.

   "Teacher, are you looking for me?" Sorel entered the office.

   "Come and sit down." Sukta stretched her hand to signal, and waited for the assistant to pour a cup of tea for Sorel before she said, "How many years have passed in a blink of an eye, little Sorel, you are about to become an old man, and I am even older, with half of my body buried in the ground."

   "Teacher, you are still as energetic as you were when you were young. Students believe that you will soon be able to break through the fog of spiritual arcana and be promoted to a great arcane mage."

   "Haha, you will say these flattering words to make the teacher happy." Suktara smiled and shook his head, "Teacher is destined to miss the 4th Ring in this life, but you still have a long way to go, and you still have a chance to surpass the teacher."

  Sorrell responded: "I will definitely live up to your high expectations, teacher."

   "That's right, you should have such ambition. The path of spiritual mystery is full of thorns. How will you know if you can do it if you don't rush."

   "The teacher said so."

   "Sorrell..." Suktara's tone was a little sad, and it seemed that some words were difficult to say.

   "Teacher, please tell me." Sorel was a little confused.

   "I'm going to let you out." As soon as Suktara said the words, he no longer hesitated, "You study the life box, this is the subject you will rely on in the future, and it is also the ladder for you to pursue spiritual mysteries. The teacher is not going to delay your future any longer, and bind you in this alchemy mage tower."

   "Ah!" Sorell felt a thunderbolt at the time.

  He never thought of leaving the Suktara Mage Tower, because he subconsciously regarded all of this as his own foundation.

  So when Suktara asked him to leave, his expression changed drastically immediately, and he suppressed the astonishment and anger in his heart.

  The voice trembled a little and said: "Teacher, you are joking. How can I rest assured that I will leave you, and I can still do research if I stay here, and it will not delay me. Teacher, you can rest assured."

  Suktara kept smiling: "The teacher is for your own good."

   Looking for tickets~
