Studying Science in the Alternate World

Chapter 324 The journey to find the great elf

Joining the Oak Man Manufacturing Project, Franny Merganser immediately established an experimental center at the Spiritual Plant Research Institute and merged the experimental team Duke recruited from the Spiritual Pet Alliance into the experimental center.

Frannie Sanduck also ordered her warship to fly towards Cuihai City, carrying the sky replica ring.

 She planned to let her sky clone station in Duke's Sage Mage Tower and personally study the acorns that Duke said "can make oak men".

 Hearing the news.

Alston Lanhe, the dean of the Elf Research Institute, expressed his opinion when attending some private academic salons: "Franny is crazy. This crazy woman actually pinned her hope of promotion to Huiyue on the earth. On the arcane mage!"

 As two prophets in the field of spiritual cultivation.

Alston Lanhe could naturally tell at a glance that the intention behind Franny Sanduck's move was to impact Huiyue.

"I'm so confused. How can the Chapter of the Moon Phases be so easy to succeed!" Alston Lanhe's tone contained a lot of regret for Franny Sanduck, thinking that the other party's behavior was completely sacrificing his own worth, "If I could Relying on a small experiment, after completing the chapter of the moon phases, I knelt down and kowtowed twice to Duke!"

 Somehow.

 When he should have raised the flag happily, he suddenly felt guilty and stuttered.

A sage attending the academic salon reminded him leisurely: "Your Excellency Alston, Duke is a fourth-level prophet and six-level sage, a living sage recognized by the world, and cannot be treated as an ordinary fourth-level earth magician. "

Alston Lanhe immediately understood why he felt guilty.

 Duke is too young, and many monsters who are hundreds of years old, including himself, actually have a feeling of contempt from the bottom of their hearts.

I always feel that young people can’t do things with their words.

 I have eaten more salt than young people have eaten rice, so I naturally believe that young people should fail and be depressed, and then humbly ask themselves and other old people for advice on life.

 The same goes for Duke.

However, Duke is different. Although he is young, younger than many people's great-grandchildren, his achievements are unrivaled in the world. No matter how stubborn the old monster is, no matter how much he despises and despises Duke in his heart, he still has to face it.

 That is Duke, who has become a living sage, and every move he makes can be regarded as truth.

 To oppose Duke is to oppose the truth.

How can you not feel guilty?

"No, no, no!" Even though he understood where his guilty conscience came from, Alston Lanhe still insisted on his opinion, "This time, Your Excellency Duke, you have reached a dead end. The oak man manufacturing plan will definitely fail and miscarry. Human beings are not grass and trees. It’s not vegetation!”

These words reached the ears of the person involved, Frannie Merganser, who laughed it off without making any rebuttal.

 Just led the research team and began to study the power of the Tree King according to the ideas provided by Duke.

However, the experiment seems to be as Alston Lanhe concluded, even if there are acorns from the ancestor of the oak tree as specimens, there is still no progress at all.

 In the Duke Sage Mage Tower.

Franny Merganser's sky clone walked around the laboratory and found that the research team had made no progress, then went to the Lingchi Farm at the foot of the mountain.

"How long have you been planting snow-blowing pillars?" She visited around them under the leadership of James, the person in charge of the farm. "These snow-blowing pillars' spiritual ponds have begun to take shape. After a few more generations of cultivation, they may be able to meet Duke's requirements. It’s a real spiritual pool.”

"I started planting it about ten years ago. The original Fuxue Pillar didn't look like this. How can I describe it? It was very ugly and disgusting." James answered respectfully. In fact, the two branches were already fighting. The seemingly inconspicuous one in front of him The middle-aged woman is one of the stars.

 Duke Sage Mage Tower is often visited by the stars, but James can only watch the stars from a distance.

I never expected that this time, the stars would settle in Oak Tooth Mountain, and I could lead the stars to visit Lingchi Farm.

 In the heart.

James did not know how many times he recited silently, Spiritual Love Me, to suppress the excitement in his heart and to face the awe of the stars.

Of course, he knew very well that these stars were all heading towards Duke, so in awe, he couldn't help but feel a sense of pride and superiority in his heart - so what about the stars, he was the sage Duke. vassal!

 A vassal of the sages!

 Do you understand the value of it?

If it weren't for the spiritual particle aura pressure given by Franny Merganser's sky clone, James would have really wanted to secretly do a tactical retreat.

"Ten years ago." Franny Sanduck obviously didn't know and didn't bother to know what kind of psychological activities a small person like James, a first-level spiritual planter, had in his heart. She sighed, "Research in the field of spiritual plantation, That’s it, time is the least valuable thing.”

A tree king takes tens of thousands of years to grow. Time is indeed worthless.

 She studied blowing snow pillars for a while, then walked around, and found that there was a greenhouse area in Lingchi Farm, which was planted with strange tropical rainforest plants.

“These are the seeds that our adults brought back from other places, and it took a lot of effort to cultivate them to the current scale.” James said, in fact, these seeds were collected by Duke from the Asiba tribe and brought back with the help of the exclusive starry sky.

“It’s very interesting, these are plants that have never been recorded before!” Franny Merganser found something interesting.

 The next moment, she stretched out her hand in vain.

 Soon after, a large wordless book materialized in her hands. It was a mysterious weapon.

She held the large wordless book and pointed it at a strange plant that looked like a piranha in the greenhouse. Four large characters suddenly appeared on the blank paper of the large wordless book.

 “Not recorded yet.”

“Sure enough!” Franny Merganser laughed, “This is a new species that has never been recorded.”

 She smiled and asked, "Can I pick a little as a sample?"

James immediately responded: "Please do as you please. Our Lords have already given instructions. You can study everything here as you please."

"Okay." Franny Merganser directly pulled out the weird piranha plant, and then with a wave of her hand, the piranha plant was swallowed up by the wordless book, and then appeared on the blank page of the wordless book. It's so lifelike, as if it's not a painting.

James glanced at it twice and was a little curious about this wordless book, but he was not surprised because the arcane weapons were so strange.

After Franny Merganser collected the specimens, she asked, "What do you call this plant?"

 “Rafflesia, my lord.”

 “Rafflesia, an interesting name.”

Franny Sanduck then collected all the plants that were not recorded in the Wordless Big Book, put them in the Wordless Big Book, and named them.

 The big wordless book is not big, just the size of an ordinary book, but it seems to have endless capacity.

James even saw Franny Merganser uprooting a three-meter-high shrub with a wave of her hand and stuffing it into a wordless book. After entering, I don't know where the plants are hidden, and the entire wordless book only has a dozen pages of thick leather paper.

 After visiting Lingchi Farm, Frannie Sanduck suddenly felt that she had gained a lot.

The Duke Sage Mage Tower has returned.

But he went up to the tree house of the ancestor of the oak tree from the 30th floor corridor, knocked on the door of Duke's tree house, and then entered.

“Those plants at Lingchi Farm, did you bring them back from other places?” Frannie Sanduck asked.

"Yes."

"My 'encyclopedia' told me that these plants have never been seen before, and..." Franny Merganser said with some confusion, "the encyclopedia can't find their similar species. In other words, these plants are all It’s a completely new species.”

Duke said casually: "It's a completely new species."

"You don't understand what I mean." Frannie Sanduck directly manifested her arcane encyclopedia, "I once traveled throughout the wilderness continent with the encyclopedia, and all the plants I saw, I stored it all, identified its genes, and determined its species."

 After a pause, Franny Merganser said: "But the plants you collected do not have any close relatives of the same genus in the encyclopedia."

Duke then raised his eyebrows: "Aren't there any closely related species?"

"No." Frannie Merganser narrowed her eyes and said, "I now suspect that these plants are not species from our wild continent."

Duke also realized it.

If Franny Merganser has really collected most of the species in the Wilderness Continent, then she will definitely be able to find close relatives of these plants. After all, in the same continental environment, the evolution of all species should follow certain rules.

It is impossible for so many new varieties to suddenly appear, which are not even close relatives.

“So, the Axiba tribe is not actually in the Wilderness Continent? But it is on another continent on this planet?” Duke thought silently.

He even thought: "The Manghuang planet is just that big. The Manghuang continent occupies a large area. I'm afraid there won't be such a big new continent... Maybe the Axiba tribe is not actually on this planet, but on another planet! "

 “What are you thinking about?” Franny Merganser asked.

"Sorry, I was thinking, I can't give you the answer now." Duke did not reveal his secret.

The Mark of the Stars on Duke's Star is his trump card. Although interested people can guess a secret or two, as long as he doesn't tell it, it will always remain a mystery.

He immediately changed the topic: "Your encyclopedia is very interesting. In addition to recording plant information, it can also analyze plant genes?"

Franny Sanduck replied: "It can record not only plant information, but also all living organisms, as well as mineral deposits, spiritual gold, etc. Analyzing genes is only a basic function. As long as there are corresponding samples, all information can be basically recorded Analyze it.”

 “Cool!” Duke was very interested, “How many levels of arcane weapons does it belong to?”

  “5 rings.”

 “Um, just to ask, can I appreciate its ring structure?” Duke planned to study the encyclopedia’s spell model.

 Although he has some skills, he can record any data.

 But Xiaoyi is not an analyst and can only record the surface properties of an object, or the properties provided to it by Duke after research.

For example, for a Rafflesia flower, Xiaoyi could only write down its appearance, and then compare it with another Rafflesia flower based on its appearance. But there is no way to proactively analyze the characteristics of things like an encyclopedia, and can only rely on Duke's embodied arcane eyes and arcane hands for analysis.

"There is nothing to keep secret. I will send you the design information of the encyclopedia later." Franny Sanduck said cheerfully.

 “Thank you.”

By the next day, Franny Merganser once again gathered the sky clone and brought the prepared information.

 The information is very thick, and the spell model of the 5th level arcane weapon is by no means simple and clear.

But Duke had the Arcane Eyes and the Arcane Hands to read the information, and then gave it to Xiaoyi to summarize and record all the information in an hour.

“Your eyes and hands, although they are a bit ugly, are really good in function.” Franny Sanduck also became interested in Duke’s arcane weapon.

Duke understood: "I will summarize the information on the Arcana Hand and the Arcane Eye later and store it in the Offa Tower. You can retrieve it and observe it at will."

"good."

 The two chatted for a while.

Franny Sanduck said: "Your experimental procedures are very good, but we lack samples similar to the Oak ancestor. There are only seven third-level elves recorded in the entire Seven Towers Federation, including yours. It’s the King of Seven Elf Trees.”

“I don’t have much time to spare, and it’s too troublesome to travel to various places. I can only focus on the ancestor of oak trees and the nearby acacia boxwood. The remaining five trees are left to you to study.”

 “It’s okay, but it’s still not enough.” Franny Merganser shook her head. "Research first, I will find a solution." Duke responded confidently.

Frannie Sanduck glanced at Duke and nodded in agreement: "Okay, then I will study it first and wait for your good news."

 …

Duke's solution is simple. Since the Seven Towers Federation does not have enough Elf Tree Kings, he can find them from the Dreamland of the Stars.

Among the more than 30,000 stars that have been lit up, there are quite a few corresponding to the 3rd ring Elf Tree King.

 It’s just that Duke didn’t explore it before.

Now that you are strong enough, you can study these Elf Tree Kings and look for 3-ring great elves to enrich the Elf Paradise in the air sea.

“But before that, I have to wait a moment until I can upgrade the Arcane Hand to level 3.” Duke started in no hurry.

  Because after obtaining the information from the 5th Ring Arcane Weapon-Encyclopedia, with the help of Xiaoyi's supercomputing power, Duke analyzed that the encyclopedia's species collection and recording, genetic analysis and comparison capabilities could be integrated into the hands of the 3rd Ring Arcane Weapon.

  The reason why the encyclopedia is a 5-ring arcane weapon is because it needs to accommodate the gene pool of countless species, and the level cannot be too low.

But Duke can completely combine the gene bank with Xiaoyi's database, so that the Arcane Hand has an external gene bank, reducing the necessary ring structure of the Arcane Hand, thereby ensuring that it can be reproduced at the 3-ring level. 5 Ring Encyclopedia Functions.

“Process 6: Hand of Arcane Weapon 3.0, arcane weapon sublimation, research and development consumption 75% power. The current research and development progress is 82%, and the time budget is 12 days.”

In order to sublimate the Arcane Hand as quickly as possible, Duke has asked Xiaoyi to allocate most of his power to this process.

 So the research and development speed is very fast.

 Two weeks go by in a blink of an eye.

The Oakman Manufacturing Plan made little progress throughout the summer. It can even be said that there was no progress at all. It seems that as Alston Lanhe said, this is an idea that has been proven by countless forefathers and has become a dead end.

 The power of the Tree King can never be used by humans like the blood of spiritual beasts.

"No one can make mistakes without being a sage. Prophet Duke has been on a smooth journey, and it's time to try the taste of failure." Some arcane mages who are paying attention to the Oak Man manufacturing plan are happy to see this, and hope that Duke can also fail. Once or twice.

However, there are also many arcane mages who have extraordinary confidence in Duke: "No one can make mistakes without being a sage, but Duke is indeed a sage!"

　　It is said that Duke is a living sage, so it is logical that a sage can do something that others cannot do.

“The idea of ​​opening up the path to the elves is a good one, but it’s a pity that it leads to a dead end.”

"The development of spiritual arcane magic to this day is to find all possibilities from the impossible. If Duke's prophet can revitalize the way of knights, he can open up the way of elves."

"The way of knights has existed since ancient times, and it is even the earliest power that we humans have mastered. Elves have been common for a long time, but the way of elves has never been opened up. It can be seen that the way of elves is a beautiful idea, and the prophet is also trapped in fantasy! "

 “Turning fantasy into reality reveals the sage’s methods!”

 “I don’t know how high the sky is and how high it is!”

 “The frog in the well!”

 In the Arcane Mage circle, the discussion about the Oak Man manufacturing plan has been aroused. It is true that Duke's influence is too great now, and any of his research is watched by countless people.

 In the past, Duke kept its research secret first and then announced it to the public after the results were produced.

This time, before even studying it, it has already made a huge noise, which naturally attracted the attention of most arcane mages.

 Having created the controversies that are now at odds with each other.

 Fortunately, both Franny Sanduck and Duke were able to bear their temper and did not waver at all. They still led the team to do research leisurely. Regardless of whether there is progress or not, just follow the experimental process anyway.

“Your Excellency Franny, I am going to go out for a trip. Please help look after the experimental teams on both sides.” Duke said.

 He still has his earth clone here, but it only lasts for one hour and fifteen minutes every day.

Franny Merganser nodded: "Okay."

 After a brief exchange, Duke took Little Dou, Little Chicken, and Oak Spirit to activate the Mark of the Stars in his office.

 As the sky spins and the earth spins, you enter the dreamland of stars.

There are more than 30,000 stars in the sea of ​​​​light, and Duke cannot guarantee that he will remember every one of them, but he focuses on the stars that he perceives as the third-ring Elf Tree King—every time he comes out, he will rely on memory to let Xiaoyi Help him draw a star map.

 “Here, this one!” Duke found the first marked star.

 Touch perception, the next moment you are possessed by a three-ring tree king, and you can perceive everything around you from the perspective of the tree king.

"Well, it is indeed an Elf Tree King. I remembered it correctly. And there are no signs of humans around. Instead, the tree is full of monkeys... Maybe it was the monkeys who trained this Tree King into the Elf Tree King." Duke said silently Calculate.

 The birth of elves is not an accidental phenomenon, but the spiritual plants are born after being infected by spirituality during their long-term domestication and cultivation.

For example, Duke's chicks were born by burrowing army ants who constantly planted Ji Yulu in their nests, thereby becoming infected.

"Don't be in a hurry to come. There is still time in the dreamland starry sky. I will light up a group of stars." It takes ten days to charge for two hours in the starry dreamland. Duke will not waste it. He quickly teleports to the edge of the sea of ​​​​light, and then Light up the stars one by one.

 Wait until the time is almost over, then teleport to the star of the Elf Tree King, touch it, possess it, and then your thoughts will come.

 After the world spins.

Duke has accurately landed on the top of the crown of this Elf Tree King.

 The moment he appeared, Xiaoyi started breathing and established a breathing resonance with the surrounding forest. Quickly project all the information in the environment on the Dou Qi holographic screen.

 The armor of the arcane weapon was instantly embodied by Duke, covering his whole body.

 “Chiji!”

 “Ah hoo hoo…”

As soon as Duke prepared for defense, a group of monkeys on the Elf Tree King had already discovered his presence, and began to roar like thunder. And under the leadership of the most powerful monkey king, they quickly approached Duke.

"There are 453 unknown monkey-like spirit beasts with 5th ring, 71 unknown monkey-like spirit beasts with 6th ring, 12 unknown monkey-like spirit beasts with 7th ring, 3 unknown monkey-like spirit beasts with 8th ring...and 286 1st, 2nd, and 2nd-ring unknown monkey spirit beasts. 3-ring and 4-ring monkey-like spirit beast cubs...a total of 830."

On the Dou Qi holographic screen, Xiaoyi accurately reported the number and strength of the monkey group.

 This is a group of huge monkey-like spiritual beasts, with a total of 830 of them, ranging from 8th level to 1st level, which is very rare.

 The higher the level of the spirit beast, the less likely it is to live in groups.

 The reason is simple. High-level spiritual beasts eat an astonishing amount of food, so they need a huge hunting territory to support themselves.

 He glanced at the three 8-ring spirit beasts that seemed to be monkey kings approaching him, and their whole bodies shone with the thunderous sheen of arcane magic. Duke quickly prepared for battle, called out Kabuto, merged with himself, and entered a state of true dragon symbiosis.

In an instant, a three-meter-tall half-human, half-dragon figure, clad in arcane armor, stood on top of the Elf Tree King.

 The dragon tail sword in his hand flashes with cold light.

"Tentative name...Thunder Monkeys!" Duke quickly gave this group of monkey-like spiritual beasts a name, and in the next second, they flew out of the tree crown like sharp arrows.

 He was afraid that the battle would endanger the Elf Tree King.

The thunder monkey group did not calm down because Duke flew away. The three 8-ring monkey kings continued to lead the group and jumped from the crown to the surrounding trees.

Their size is considered very small among high-level spiritual beasts. Their adult body is only the size of a silverback gorilla. Their whole bodies are flashing with thunder sparks, and they jump quickly in the canopy, chasing Duke closely, and occasionally He also stretched out his arm and condensed the thunder spear in his hand.

　　Boom!

Like throwing, dozens of thunder spears flew into the air and shot at Duke.

“Level 3 Arcane - Thunder Spear.” On the Dou Qi holographic screen, Xiao Yi gave the arcane level of these thunder spears, which were not very strong.

 But the advantage is that the attack speed is very fast, and these thunder monkeys can quickly throw another one after throwing one thunder spear.

 In an instant, the sky was filled with flying thunder spears.

The wings on Duke's back fluttered, and he stood taller, throwing away most of the thunder spears. Occasionally, two thunder spears flying high were easily blocked by his instantaneous 4-ring compound arcana - Armor of the Earth. .

 “Chiji!”

 “Ah hoo hoo!”

The thunder monkeys screamed wildly again, and then more thunder spears were projected out.

Duke holds the Dragon Tail Sword in his right hand, lying horizontally in front of him. When his left hand moves forward for a moment, the three-ring sand eagle turns into a gray barrel, floating above the back of his hand.

The corner of his mouth curled up slightly: "It's hunting time!"

 The words have not yet finished.

 Three-ring Sand Eagle activates violent rate of fire, instant burst shooting and terminal bullets. The three modes are superimposed, and the attack power is directly maxed out.

 Boom, boom, boom, boom!

 A hail of bullets exploded in the woods below.

Even if all the thunder monkeys activate the solidifying arcana, the 5-ring composite arcana - Thunder Shield still cannot stop the explosion of the terminal bullet. The Thunder Shield was directly exploded, and some 5-ring Thunder Monkeys were directly exploded and instantly turned into a ball of plasma.

 "Ho **** ho ho!" The three 8-ring Thunder Monkey Kings emitted more dazzling lightning, which could easily withstand the explosion of the terminal bullet.

However, I saw the weak thunder monkeys in the group dying suddenly one by one.

The three Thunder Monkey Kings were furious, and the thunder light all over their bodies instantly bloomed forward, turning into thunder monkeys composed of huge thunder. In the blink of an eye, they flashed to Duke's side, like thunder coming to the world, sealing off the space around Duke to escape.

However, before the thunder light exploded, a **** hand stretched out from the void, tearing the space apart and quickly cutting off the Thunder Monkey.

 Hiss, boom!

The Thunder Monkey exploded, and the thunder continued to rush towards the **** hand, but the defense of the 7-ring forbidden technique - Immortal Grip was not something that Thunder could break through.

 Duke is in it, safe and sound.

Instead, he continued to shoot at the group of thunder monkeys while studying the thunder monkeys with great interest: "Xiao Yi, is this a brand new arcana?"

"According to data comparison, there is a 52% possibility that it is a variant of the 6-ring compound arcana - Beast King Raikage, and a 48% possibility that it is a brand new arcana." Xiaoyi quickly gave the answer. In its database, almost any Arcane magic is recorded.

Duke was suddenly disappointed: "I thought it was a brand new arcana, but now it seems that it is indeed a variant arcana of the Beast King Raikage."

Beast King Raikage, a 6-ring composite arcana. Different spiritual beasts have different solidification forms, but the basic structure is pretty much the same.

"Continue fighting!"

 Duke was suspended in mid-air, and continued to lock in the chasing group of thunder monkeys, looking for the weakest 5-level thunder monkey among them to kill.

 First clear the mobs, then fight the BOSS.
