mechanical court

This indirectly led to the people's admiration for mathematics. Whether they were nobles or commoners, they all respected people with high levels of calculation.However, under normal circumstances, the subject of planning is monopolized by the nobles and the priestly class, so the people often regard it as a special ability only available to the upper class.

Therefore, when Ivan showed a special mathematical ability, Yassin felt that it was a divine ability.

"Do you think it's difficult to plan?" He asked with great interest.

"Disaster!"

Yassin nodded resolutely, then lowered his head uncontrollably, and explained in shame:

"So many words, combined together, I'm dizzy at a glance!"

"The hieroglyph is too complicated. Use my method to read it. This symbol represents the number one..." With the attitude of giving it a try, Ivan began to teach his guard chief about mathematics.

"Well, let me try..."

Yassin looked guilty, and he didn't want to go against his will, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and nod.

"This symbol stands for two, this is three, this is four..."

------------

10 minute later.

"What's eleven plus 32? Don't break your fingers. Even adding your toes isn't enough. Use paper!"

"Equal...equal...equal to 44!"

"Congratulations, you got it!"

Ivan patted him on the shoulder vigorously, and said with a gratified expression, "I believe it won't be long before you can master addition and subtraction within one hundred."

"How amazing!"

Yassin held up the scrap paper excitedly, and said incoherently, "These symbols must have magical powers. They can speed up my thinking and improve my calculation ability by leaps and bounds."

"..."

Ivan shook his head helplessly. Superstitious people are really scary. There is no magic power in numbers, they are just simple and easy to remember.

Wait, simple and easy to remember is not the biggest advantage! ?

He quickly realized that if these simple symbols could be promoted, the efficiency of the calculation would definitely be greatly improved, and along the way, he could gain a reputation for saving his life.

Chapter 49 Unexpected

After making up his mind, Ivan immediately embarked on his own path as a mathematician.

He first listed all the blue star numbers, which corresponded one-to-one with the hieroglyphic numbers, then brought out the simple mathematical symbols of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, explained the concepts, and finally attached a nine-nine multiplication table.

After doing all this, it was already noon.The sun had already pierced through the clouds and hung above the head, and the temperature and light were much more intense than in the early morning.

The place where Ivan stayed was another ancient prayer hall with a simple structure and narrow space. The dome was originally not high, and there was a wheel-shaped candle chandelier hanging there.After the sun shone hotly in, the air was steaming, making it stuffy and hot.

"This is the first one... first try the waters with enlightenment mathematics... just make it easy to popularize."

He carefully put the manuscript of Enlightenment Arithmetic into the drawer, then stood up, ready to go to the backstage of the auction to have a look at the situation.

Before walking out the door, Ivan found a servant coming along the corridor, holding a pot of drink in the tray in his hand, which seemed to be for him.

When Ivan found the waiter, the other party also found him, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he said from a distance: "Your Majesty Ivan, Queen Ellome knows that you have been working hard recently, and ordered me to send you a pot to relieve the heat." Come over with your drink."

"A drink to relieve the heat?"

Ivan was immediately vigilant. Elle Luomei is not in a hurry to mess with herself now. How could she give herself a drink? If she really wanted to, it would be poisonous wine!

"That's right, then I'll give you this jug of drink, stand there and drink it for me!" He resolutely refused, and was about to let the other party suffer for himself.

"..."

The attendant raised his eyebrows fiercely, but did not speak, but a cold light flashed from his squinted eyes for an instant.

"Don't drink!?"

Yiwen's face darkened, and he concluded that he had met an assassin, so he deliberately raised his tone, enough for the surrounding attendants to hear.

Whoosh-!

However, at this moment, the attendant's body did not move, he just threw away the tray and flicked his wrist, and the sword light flickered around him immediately, and the silver light was dazzling, and he directly slashed in front of the target.

boom--!

Yiwen's expression remained unchanged, he punched in the air, smashed out a ball of broken light, and resisted the blow head-on.He bowed his back and bowed his knees, and his figure flew out, rushing forward with heavy wind pressure.

"Dark Lord!"

The assassin's pupils shrank in an instant, and the next moment, his body jumped tens of meters away, his arms moved forward once, and two hidden swords that shone with cold light suddenly extended out, facing Ivan and charged straight away.

Whoosh-!

His whole body is like a gust of wind, the speed is so fast that it almost exceeds the limit of the naked eye's recognition, afterimages flicker where it passes, and the air explodes layer by layer, making a roar similar to that of an airplane passing by at low altitude.

"Foolish Lord!?"

Yiwen's eyes turned cold, and a mouthful of evil fire blocked his chest. He watched the figure of the other party rush towards him, and a series of afterimages intertwined together, forming a gesture of raising his hand to stab.

call--!

The strong air current blew the hair on his forehead, and in the next moment, the air exploded, and his two fists condensed into raging flames, raised up flat and struck out, forcibly smashing on the two Hidden Swords that were stabbing at the vitals.

boom--!

The two heavy blows made the same loud noise, and the sharp Hidden Blade hit the peak of the fist, and then it shattered inch by inch, and the air suddenly exploded into messy spray.

At this level, I can learn from other people's assassination! ?

How dare you say that Lao Tzu is a fool?

I'm just a backer, not a fool!

A trace of disdain flashed in Ivan's eyes, and his fists continued to advance. The flaming fist peaks were like two rockets. The moment they touched the assassin's arms, the impact force blew his hands into pieces.

Keep alive!

After crippling the opponent's arm in the blink of an eye, he put away his murderous intention, and raised his arms outwards, sweeping out a large whirlwind of flames, and blasting away all the light energy condensed in his hands.

"hey-hey."

This scene fell into the eyes of the assassin, but it caused him to let out a cold and strange smile, and his expression became ferocious and distorted.
