Studying Science in the Alternate World

Chapter 337 The glowing moon is forever dark

Duke answered the questions Franny Merganser encountered one by one.

As a 5th-level Elf Qi Refining Master, I have truly experienced various druids, shamans, and wilderness gods.

On the path of Qi of all things, no one knows better than him.

But he still sticks to his usual style, which is to make a start and leave the rest to professionals. After the release of the Qi Refining Ring, apart from retaining a research team in the Mage Tower, he ignored the rest of the research and promotion work.

Anyway, with Alston Lanhe and Frannie Sanduck, the two stars and prophets, in charge, the subsequent development work will definitely go smoothly and there is no need for him to worry too much.

Play the role of mentor and solve the problems the two of them encounter, that's all.

In a blink of an eye.

At the end of the year, Duke, who had not thought about what he was going to study next, was basically sorting out his existing knowledge of spiritual arcana.

Practice silently.

His research is too complex and too much, and the spiritual feedback is rich, but his understanding of the spiritual arcana needs to be slowly improved, and he cannot be fattened up in one sitting.

In addition, his foundation has not been solidified.

In the Linghai Spiritual Core, there is one empty slot in the third ring orbit, and there are three empty slots in the fourth ring orbit, which he needs to think about how to use.

"There are already two sets of instant forbidden spells, the Grasp of Immortality and the Sword of Glory... Although the linked arcane system of the Sword of Glory has not yet been established, the linked arcane wonders of levels 1 to 4 have been To establish it, only the fifth ring of radiance envelope and the sixth ring of holy light field are left.”

The fifth-ring orbit and the sixth-ring orbit have not yet been opened, and there is no Sinking Demon to send nightmare clones again, so arcane wonders cannot be built for the time being.

"Even if I am promoted to level 6 Sky Arcana Mage, I can only build two sets of instantaneous forbidden spells..."

Due to the limitation of slots on the ring track, basically a 6-ring sky arcane mage can only build two complete wonder linkage systems, thus triggering forbidden spells.

Duke has already set up a system, but there are still some vacant slots left, and they can only find and fill the gaps.

"Are the empty slots on the ring track used to cast arcane weapons or build arcane wonders?" He sat in the treehouse, sipping Kung Fu tea and meditating.

Honestly.

He does not want to build arcane wonders. Although instantaneous arcane spells are extremely effective: "But I have a fifth-level arcane hand. Under the forbidden spell, I can release any arcane spell, but the release time cannot be compared to the instantaneous spell." It’s just arcane magic.”

Therefore, he quickly rejected the idea of ​​building arcane wonders.

"I should even clear away all the irrelevant arcane wonders and artifacts on the ring orbit... On the first ring orbit, I can clean up the two arcane wonders of illusion and healing; on the second ring orbit, I can sublimate the arcane wonders. The Eye of the Weapon leaves a slot open.”

In this way, at least one slot can be freed on several ring tracks.

"Then I can build another forbidden technique system... Although there are no extra slots, building auxiliary wonders and strengthening the power of the forbidden technique, but being able to release the forbidden technique is enough!"

Forbidden spells require a fixed linkage of wonders to form a system. At the same time, they also need auxiliary wonders to enhance the power of the forbidden spells.

For example, the 7-ring forbidden spell - Grasp of the Immortal, is composed of 1-ring arcane shield, 2-ring elemental shield, 3-ring elemental armor, 4-ring earth armor, 5-ring brilliant gem and 6-ring meteoric grip.

At the same time, if there are 2-level Stoneskin Technique and 3-level Thunder Grip to assist with Wonder Linkage, the power can be increased.

The same is true for the 7-ring forbidden art - Sword of Glory, which is composed of 1-ring Candlelight, 2-ring Sword of Light, 3-ring Great Sword of Light, 4-ring Pillar of Light, 5-ring Glory Envelope and 6-ring Holy Light Domain. .

At the same time, if there are 2-ring Warming Sun Technique and 3-ring Continuous Light Blooming, and auxiliary wonder linkage, the power can be increased.

In this way, two complete forbidden magic systems require four 2-ring arcane wonders.

Duke's second ring orbit only has five slots, so it can only accommodate a second ring arcane wonder.

If a third set of forbidden arts system is built, there will be no auxiliary wonders to link with, and the power of the forbidden arts will be greatly reduced.

"Which forbidden technique should I choose? If you think about it carefully, you still have to choose the auxiliary forbidden technique. Otherwise, there will be no auxiliary miracle. After the power of the offensive and defensive forbidden techniques is discounted, the effect is really average... Well, it is better to choose the 7-ring forbidden technique - Windy and windy!"

7th Ring Forbidden Technique - Long Wind, as the name suggests, it uses the power of wind to move thousands of miles in an instant.

Not only can the caster's own speed travel thousands of miles in an instant, but it can also encircle more people or objects and fly together.

It can even hijack a battleship and move it dozens of kilometers away in an instant.

"It's really good. I have the Grasp of Immortality for defense, and the Sand Eagle Pistol and Sword of Glory for offense. Now I'm missing someone to escape!" Duke took a sip of the newly brewed tea. The tea was still the same tea, but brewed with Kung Fu tea. In the process, the level of force has skyrocketed.

The entrance feels more refreshing.

But soon, Duke hesitated again: "Chatting with the stars, I already know that the stars can also master magical powers that are comparable to forbidden arts... There is a magical power called the Möbius Ring, which can achieve the effect of being as far away as the world. !”

When he was aboard the battleship Bibo, he was attacked by the fallen demon Miguel.

After receiving the news, Selsus cast the Ring of Möbius and rushed on. Unfortunately, the arcane trajectory was disturbed, resulting in the loss of precise coordinates, and he was unable to make it in time.

If the arcane trajectory is not disturbed, it can be said that with the help of the Möbius Ring, Selsus can arrive in a minute or two.

"When I advance to the stars and master the Ring of Mobius, won't this forbidden technique be wasted by then?"

Having said that, after repeated consideration, Duke decided to practice Changfeng Wanli.

Firstly, the time for promotion to the stars is not yet known, so it is important to keep it secret with the help of Changfeng Wanli; secondly, when that time comes, we can completely overthrow these arcane wonders and rebuild a new system.

"It's just a waste of time. With Xiaoyi helping me build the arcane wonder, it will be easy." Duke did not hesitate too much and quickly made up his mind.

7th Ring Forbidden Technique - Changfeng Wanli, which is formed by the linkage of 1st Ring Wind Technique, 2nd Ring Tearing Gale, 3rd Ring Wind Rush, 4th Ring Tornado Blade, 5th Ring Storm Arrival and 6th Ring Wind Immersion. It can also be composed of 2-ring small tornado, 3-ring large tornado, auxiliary wonder linkage.

"Xiao Yi."

"Master, I'm here."

"Clear the illusion and arcane wonders on the first ring track." Duke chose to retain the healing spell among the illusion and healing spells.

In case of injury, instant healing is still crucial.

"Good master, we have begun to dismantle the arcane wonders of the illusion."

"After dismantling it, immediately build a 1-ring Wind Movement arcane wonder."

"clear."

"In addition, the Arcane Eye on the second ring of the track should be sublimated. After the slot is vacated, build a 2-ring tearing gale arcane wonder... When the Arcane Eye of the Arcane reaches level 3, the third ring of the track will be full again. , then sublimate the Arcane Hand upwards, free up a slot, and build a 3-ring Arcane Wonder of the Wind Rush."

"Okay, we're building the memo."

"In addition, on the fourth ring orbit, immediately build a 4-ring tornado blade arcane wonder."

"Yes, Master." Xiaoyi quickly wrote down Duke's plans on the memo list, "At this point, the four slots of the first orbit of the master's spiritual core are completed, and the five slots of the second orbit are completed. , the six slots of the third ring orbit are complete, and six of the seven slots of the fourth ring orbit are used.”

"Well, leave a slot for me to think about, and then I can cast another arcane weapon."

That is to say, the space on Duke's ring orbit is large enough, and the Sand Eagle pistol provides combat power, so there is no need to consider offensive arcana.

Only then can we calmly construct three sets of forbidden arts systems.

Some ordinary arcane mages must not only build a forbidden spell system, but also have appropriate arcane defense and attack, and also have to leave space for arcane weapons. The slots are extremely tight. Souchou, after being promoted to level 6 Sky Arcana Mage, he was able to build a system of forbidden arts and smiled.

"Sir, International News, this is from Princess Tiffany." Assistant Ibuprofen knocked on the door and came in.

"Okay, I understand." Duke put down his tea cup, got up and went to the mage tower to connect to the video call and chat with his wife, Princess Tiffany.

"My dear, when do you plan to come over after the Chinese New Year?" Princess Tiffany finally asked expectantly.

Looking at the beautiful Princess Tiffany in the video, Duke thought for a moment and said, "Number ten."

After a trip to Snow Shirt Palace, he would have to wait ten days to come back. Duke must first appease the Holy City of Offa and Cuihai City.

"On the 10th, it's so late..." Princess Tiffany was a little sad.

But he quickly put away his sad look and asked, "Is your practice going well? When will you be promoted to Ocean Arcana Mage?"

“If it’s slow, it’ll be within nine years, if it’s fast, it’ll be three to five years.”

"It will take several years. It feels so slow."

"Do you know what you are talking about, Tiffany? No one in the world practices faster than me. It can even be said that I have raised my practice record to a level that makes everyone despair." Duke said with a smile. Of course he knew Tiffany The princess's thoughts.

She just wanted Duke to be promoted to Ocean Arcane Mage quickly, and then cast an Ocean Replica Ring, so that he could often activate the Ocean Clone and stay with her.

Princess Tiffany sighed: "It's a pity that I have a princess status and can't just go to the Seven Towers Federation."

"It doesn't matter. If our love lasts for a long time, how can we stay together day and night... Wait for me, I will leave for the Snow Shirt Palace soon."

Kiss me in the light chat for a while before hanging up the video.

Duke glanced at the time on the Dou Qi holographic screen. This optical video call lasted for thirty minutes. He couldn't help but shake his head: "Fortunately, I invented the Ring of Light. Otherwise, lovers don't know how much lovesickness they would have to bear." suffering."

Looking out the window, you can see the clouds in the sky through the branches and leaves of the ancestor oak tree.

Cuihai City has not yet seen its first winter snow this year, but the temperature has dropped below zero, and a layer of fog has condensed on the corners of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the constant-temperature office.

When I got up and left the office, the temperature in the corridor was still constant.

"Sir, do you want to go out?" The ibuprofen outside stood up and asked.

"Wander around as you like, you are busy with your business." Duke waved his hand and refused to follow Ibuprofen, "Oh, by the way, don't forget to pay attention to the location of the battleship Three Rings. When Winona arrives, let me know. I'll have a chat with her."

This year Winona Yingzhu returned to the Holy City of Offa for the New Year, mainly to prepare for the wedding and become Duke's third wife.

After Duke successively married Princess Tiffany and Kelia Furious, everyone understood his idea and followed the example of Speaker Andre Evening Primrose and enjoyed the blessing of everyone - to a five-ring prophet No one among the seven sages dared to ask for more.

Afterwards, Duke took the spiritual ladder down to the experimental floor alone.

The researchers were not surprised that he came to inspect. After greeting him respectfully, they went about their own experiments.

Today's Duke Sage Mage Tower has an increasingly large experimental team.

Arcane mages coming from all over the country had already overcrowded the mage tower. For this reason, Duke had to divert some of his people to the surrounding mage towers. Many mage towers throughout the Black Dragon River land have taken on a large number of projects from here.

The holy land has become a climate.

"Sir." Scholar Lidman bowed and saluted.

"I heard that you are still studying the fifth-level lightsaber?" Duke was inspecting the laboratory while talking to the third-level arcane mage Lidman.

Lidman replied: "Somewhat unwillingly."

He has been leading the lightsaber technology team before, and his team was the first to release 2-ring lightsaber technology, 3-ring lightsaber technology, and 4-ring lightsaber technology.

However, the technical team was stuck on the 5-ring lightsaber technology. In the end, a mage tower in the Holy City of Arcane took the lead in releasing the 5-ring lightsaber technology.

Duke immediately informed Lidman to transform the lightsaber technology team and stop focusing on the 5-ring lightsaber technology.

"There's no need to be dissatisfied. You're just a third-level arcane mage. It's very rare to be the first to develop a fourth-level lightsaber technology. It's even more difficult to break through a fifth-level lightsaber technology." Duke reassured, "I think Your first priority now is to expand your understanding of spiritual arcana and attack the 4th level earth arcana mage as soon as possible."

"I have only been promoted to the third ring for a few years...it is still too early to say I will hit the fourth ring."

"You won't be able to experience the new world of spiritual arcana until you hit the fourth level. So now, you need to calm down and delve into some projects that suit you."

"What you are trying to teach me is that I understand and will no longer be obsessed with the 5-ring lightsaber technology." Scholar Lidman nodded.

"Just understand, lightsaber technology is a technology with broad prospects. Don't just focus on higher levels, but also develop horizontally appropriately and develop more new technologies for lightsaber technology." Duke suggested, "Recently, the Holy City of Aufa has released optical glue technology. Have you seen it?"

"Look, it's very creative and has room for development." Lidman replied.

"The Light of the Erudite Tower is basically scheduled for next year." Duke also said with emotion. He started the lightsaber technology, and subsequent expansion is someone else's business. I didn't expect a surprise. "There are so many things that can be expanded with light glue technology. "

Photogel technology, hence the name Civic, is a gel formed using lightsaber technology.

This gel can effectively repair the ring structure and restore the damaged ring structure to operation.

It can repair spirit cards, assist puppet cores, activate formations, and even use gel to release arcane spells when the spiritual energy is exhausted... Although the current technology is still very rough, its application prospects are absolutely broad.

When Lidman heard this, he said with some shame: "I'm sorry, sir, but I ignored these aspects of lightsaber technology."

"I don't blame you. One flower blooming alone is not spring. When a hundred flowers bloom, spring fills the garden. If only Duke's Sage and Mage Tower can continuously innovate and release various new technologies, it will go against my original intention." Duke looked forward to the future. , "Blooming everywhere and competing with each other is the true prosperity of spiritual arcana."

In front of Lidman scholars, let’s briefly reveal the pattern.

Duke quickly inspected other laboratories. From the Brand Ring to the Qi Refining Ring, there were research teams in Duke's Sage Mage Tower.

Although he himself no longer conducts in-depth research, he has not given up supporting the team. Occasionally, he will give some of his flashes of inspiration to the research team for implementation.

With the help of the five rings and the Duke Sage Mage Tower, he is creating the era of Dongwei spirituality bit by bit.

"I've almost finished researching everything that needs to be studied. Next, I should expand the spiritual era of cave micros and let the spiritual arcana enter the true 'cave micro' stage!"

What is a hole?

In Duke's understanding, it is a chip, it is digital...

"So, it's time to invent the computer and let humans in the wild continent enter super computing and the Internet of Everything!"

If there is no controllable electricity, then use controllable light.

"Photon computer, this is the first step." Duke asked Xiaoyi to write down the development of photon computer on his schedule.

However, he did not start research immediately.

Xiaoyi's current workload is too heavy. Without Xiaoyi's assistance, it would be difficult to develop a photonic computer.

"It's the New Year's Day soon. Let me be cool first and then talk about it."

However, Duke was preparing to spend the New Year in style, but an accident suddenly happened.

The condition of the true head of the Seven Towers Federation, Speaker Andrei Primrose, suddenly deteriorated, which instantly touched the hearts of all the stars.

Duke, as a star among the stars, was also affected.

"How's it going? How's it going, Lord Speaker?" Duke's earth clone has arrived at the Evening Primrose Crystal Palace.

I saw Selsus who had just walked out of the training room.

Selsus shook his head, motioned Duke to find a quiet corner, and then said: "Psychic energy has been replaced by black smoke, and we are only one step away from the Sinking Demon."

"The Sinking Demon?" Duke was shocked, "Is the Speaker really going to perish?"

"No." Selsus said decisively, with admiration in his eyes, "Master Andre is saying his final farewell to his family. When the farewell is over, our eight Huiyue will incinerate his body. Refining it to completely isolate it from spiritual erosion."

"Does it still need to be incinerated and refined?"

"His body has been contaminated by spirituality. Once it is cut off from vitality, it will immediately degenerate into a walking corpse and become a slave of spirituality... The reason why your Excellency has not fallen yet is because of a will that has sustained it so far. When a person dies, his will will be extinguished. go……"

"Oh." Duke sighed.

Together with the other stars, they waited outside the training room, waiting for Andre Evening Primrose to close his eyes before preparing for his death.

However, what Duke didn't expect was that he thought he was just here for a routine visit, but was actually received by Andre Evening Primrose on his deathbed.

"Master Duke, my ancestor hopes to meet you and have a few words with you." Andre Evening Primrose's descendant trotted up to Duke and said with choked sobs.

Duke glanced at Selsus and the others, then nodded: "Okay, lead the way."

Following the other party, he quickly entered the training room. The entire training room was arranged in a formation, and the arcane runes shone brightly. Apparently, this method was used to suppress the spiritual contamination of Andre Evening Primrose's body. Prevent corruption.

Lambert Raven is also in the training room. As a prophet in the field of life, he is breathing another breath for Andre Evening Primrose.

Seeing Duke, Lambert Raven immediately said: "Everyone else, get out."

"Yes, two adults." Andre Evening Primrose's concubines and juniors immediately left the training room crying.

Duke walked to the bed and looked down at the withered old man lying on the bed.

In the past, when I saw Andre Evening Primrose, I could still feel the profound aura of the abyss, but now I couldn't feel it at all.

And you can see traces of black air rising from Andre Evening Primrose's dry body.

"Ah...Duke is here." Andre Evening Primrose opened his eyes. Although his voice was weak, his eyes were still bright.

Duke leaned down and said, "Here I am, Lord Speaker."

"Sit, sit..."

"good."

Sitting gently on the edge of the bed, holding Andre Evening Primrose's hand that he struggled to raise, Duke listened carefully to the other person's last words.

"I'll make a long story short... 9th Ring Sunday... I've seen it before..." Andrei Evening Primrose didn't talk nonsense and directly talked about the impact on 9th Ring Sunday.

Duke listened carefully.

Lambert Raven, who was breathing another breath for Andre Evening Primrose next to him, also pricked up his ears and listened carefully.

"It's not difficult to walk through the Chapter of Crowning the Sun... It's a pity that I don't have enough successors... There is a door above the Gangfeng, and there is also a door at the bottom of the deep sea... You can complete the Chapter of Crowning the Sun by pushing the door open... This world is incomplete... That door can't be pushed open... You can make up the road to the sea of ​​​​qi and sea of ​​blood... or you can make up the whole world..."

Andre Evening Primrose spoke intermittently.

Duke gradually frowned. He didn't quite understand these words, but he seemed to be able to find some problems from these words combined with his own knowledge.

The Eye of the Arcana had been condensed by him early, suspended on his shoulder, and recorded the scene carefully.

Andre Evening Primrose continued: "The legend of the island where knights come from is true... The Wilderness Continent is the origin of knights... You will definitely understand..."

Said.

Andre Evening Primrose suddenly exclaimed: "Yeah."

Then he stretched out his hand and pointed tremblingly in the direction of the ceiling, his eyes began to become cloudy and dull: "The door to the bottom of the sea has opened... The devil of sinking is here... I, I will never sink... Du, Duke, go up, go through Gangfeng, open the door..."

The last sound was stuck in his throat, and the breath of life of Andre Evening Primrose had disappeared.

The wisps of black smoke began to grow.

Lambert Raven put away his eavesdropping ears and said quickly: "The Speaker has gone, Duke, you leave first!"

"Okay." Although full of doubts, Duke quickly left the training room.

Selsus and other 8-ring Huiyue arcane instructors filed into the training room and began to preside over the subsequent incineration and refining process.

Duke returned to wait outside. André Evening Primrose's wives, concubines, and descendants had already begun to wail, and the stars were silent in response.

In the history of the Wilderness Continent, the greatest arcane master of the 8th level of Huiyue, and the only arcane mage who had hit the realm of the 9th level of the sun, suddenly passed away.

There were staff stationed here at the United Supreme Tower. After consulting Siegel, the executive director of the United Tower and one of the stars, they quietly left the Evening Primrose Crystal Palace and sent the news of Andre Evening Primrose's death back to the United Supreme Tower. tower.

On the big screen at the waist of the Arcane Supreme Tower.

The four tower characters in black and white were quickly played - the bright moon will always be dark.

Immediately afterwards, the large screens around the waist of the other six supreme towers, as well as the large screens of all the buildings in the Holy City of Austria, all turned into black and white, and only the four characters "Glory Moon Eternal Darkness" were played.

The programs of the Seven Towers Optical Television Station also switched from color to black and white, and left the four characters "The Moon Will Always Darken" to be spread to thousands of households.

Immediately afterwards, the optical observatories in various major fields and local optical observatories turned into four big characters in black and white: "The bright moon will always be dark."

In an instant.

The entire Seven Towers Federation lost color.

The news of the sudden death of 8 Ring of Radiance Arcane Master and Speaker of Parliament Andrei Yuencao drowned out all the hustle and bustle.

In the field of spiritual arcana, the arcane master who has reached the highest and farthest level has completed his mission in this life and returned to the true spiritual sea.

"Director Siegel, it's time for my clone." Duke said hello to Director Siegel, who was temporarily in charge of the affairs of the stars, and the earth clone shattered into dots of fluorescent light.

His consciousness returned to his real body and he sat up from the sofa chair in the office.

Looking out the window, the light show that was originally adding to the atmosphere of the New Year has disappeared, replaced by black and white. The busy traffic on the street also stopped completely. No matter the dignitaries or the common people, they all stood in silence.

It seems that even the sky is in mourning, the belated first winter snow, the snowflakes are finally falling one after another.

"The moon is always dark..." Duke sighed inexplicably. He was not familiar with Andre Evening Primrose, and had only met him a few times.

But at the moment, my heart is heavy, as if I have countless things to say, but I can't say a word.
