With a population of tens of millions in Daxia, the carefully selected archers are indeed extraordinary.

Of the 20 people, it was not until the 18th round that anyone missed an arrow. Before that, they faced a standard target 400 meters away and never missed a shot. On the battlefield, this would cost the lives of 18 officers.

Of course, the excellence of crossbows is also one thing. Ordinary people in the Covenant are probably too lazy to use bow and arrow weapons, but they have not given up on the research of various physical weapons. Equipment made with knowledge structures and advanced materials thousands of years later, naturally It cannot be compared with the handicraft workshops in feudal society.

The existence of a master may be able to make up for the gap of 200 or even 500 years, but the changes in one thousand or two thousand years cannot be predicted by previous generations. No matter how tough the steel is, it can't compete with titanium alloy, just like no matter how strong a dog is, it can't defeat a bear, and no matter how fat a monkey is, it can't defeat sumo - even if they are of similar breeds and have the same attributes, they are still the same. There is a huge difference.

The three soldiers with the best accuracy fired 48 rounds without missing a beat. Lieutenant General Cheng was like a dog looking at grapes at TLF, with his tongue hanging out longer than the belt. He was the commander of a military division and had no chance to interact with ordinary soldiers. Who would have thought that among the infantry there were archers who were stronger than the cavalry. Each of them was holding a crossbow, as stable as gold.

This is true talent.

Nearly half of the best people from the tens of millions of people in the entire empire are concentrated here.

As the fourth player lost in the 48th round, Vice General Cheng stopped the next contest and took the three people to see Cheng Jinzhou first.

The competition between 20 people using a crossbow took half a day. When they arrived, Cheng Jinzhou was not waiting in the room.

Even though Vice General Cheng was a second-grade military general, he was a first-grade civil servant, so he didn't dare to make any noise in Cheng's house.

He held a gold ingot in his hand and carefully put it into the hand of a servant. Then he asked in a low voice: "I don't know where Mr. Star Warlock is at the moment. Please let me know."

The small gold ingot sank in his hand, and Menzi's face instantly bloomed, like a spring morning glory.

"Third brother is discussing something in the Star Tower. It's not good for us to report." Menzi said that he did not want to report, but he held the gold ingot tightly in his hand and refused to give it away.

If he were in Shaonan, he wouldn't dare to charge like this even if he was beaten to death, but the situation is different in Beihan.

Thousands of miles away from home, and without the constraints of various rules in the old house, the biggest steward is Cheng Jinzhou's Shi Mo - his intimidating power is completely inferior to the first and second housekeepers.

Vice General Cheng smiled. He didn't care about the bit of gold, but he still said calmly: "Then please pass a note inside."

"Okay." Menzi agreed happily.

Sending notes is a tradition of aristocratic families. It is somewhat similar to the concept of business cards or famous tattoos, but it is usually temporary and it is not known whether the owner will read it. Because of this, only lower-level officials and nobles who want to see senior officials can only send notes. Only used by officials and nobles.

This is quite a low profile.

Some officials and aristocrats who want to have a "humble" reputation will even refuse notes from others, saying that it is "not appropriate to welcome them politely."

However, at Cheng Jinzhou's age, his preparation for various officialdoms was far from adequate.

If the master doesn't say anything, the servants will naturally have no scruples. Perhaps in their eyes, it is quite a face-saving thing for someone to hand over a note.

Of course, it is true.

The note was passed from layer to layer, and it was only at dusk that it was stuffed into Shi Mo's hand.

As Cheng Jinzhou's bookboy and de facto little housekeeper, he did not dare to delay at all. He quickly opened the door and walked in. He lay in Cheng Jinzhou's ear and said, "Third brother, the three selected archers are here."

Cheng Jinzhou was seriously discussing the first part of "Kepler's Three Laws" with Jiang Huang. He shook his finger impatiently and said, "Let them wait."

Jiang Huang laughed and said, "It's already dusk, so let's treat them to dinner first."

"It's dusk?" Cheng Jinzhou suddenly raised his head, and then realized that it was really not good for people to wait so late.

Secretly praising Jiang Huang for his wise behavior, Cheng Jinzhou took the note from Shi Mo and said, "Let the imperial chef of Hanting prepare a meal for them. Don't make it too complicated. Just say that the competition consumes a lot of energy. When they finish eating, come up and call me." "

"Yes." Shi Mo quickly retreated.

Cheng Jinzhou turned around and smiled: "Let's continue talking..."

"Our idea is to build a complete celestial computing system." The speaker was Duan Rui, an astrologer specializing in mathematics. Since he did not need experimental equipment, he came all the way from De'an just to Stay by Cheng Jinzhou's side.

And when he saw Kepler's three laws of planets, he abandoned pure mathematics without hesitation and stayed firmly in the corner of astronomy.

There were four other star warlocks who made the same decision as him.

They now want to take this opportunity to push it one step further - although the Three Laws have not been widely recognized, and it has not even had time to appear in a famous excerpt journal, no one will doubt the law itself.

Mathematically speaking, astromancers are the most sensitive people.

The Copenhagen team, which has gradually gained experience, will select valuable mathematical achievements through mutual discussions.

In the past period of time, they paid no attention to the so-called border crossers or other messy things, and focused on discussing the three laws of planets. For astromancers, the only issue they need to care about in their lives is astrology.

Continuous learning and research will naturally lead to fame and fortune, and anything else can be discarded.

The three laws of planets are used immediately, and re-establishing a complete celestial calculation system is indeed conducive to the improvement of astrologers - just changing the original circle to an ellipse can make the star map much more accurate.

Cheng Jinzhou held his chin, thought for a while and asked, "You only have five people to do all the star maps. I'm afraid it will be very hard."

"If you are willing to guide us, we will be willing to do it even for 20 years." Duan Rui stood up so excitedly.

Speaking of which, Kepler's three laws of planets at the level of the 19th century, not to mention the unpublished parts at the end, are difficult, but the previous content is still a headache. If it can be easily made, why would they bother Cheng Jinzhou.

Dr. Cheng Da raised his eyebrows and thought, in 20 years, if a pig is as big as a cow, what use will it be?

He pondered for a moment and said, "Do you need to verify the formula?"

Duan Rui said in surprise: "We still don't understand some formulas."

He said it very sincerely. The thick paper was a homework question submitted to the Star Alliance. Needless to say, it was difficult, even though Cheng Jinzhou deduced it from the basic theory.

Jiang Huang also turned to look at Cheng Jinzhou. As a senior mathematician of the 17th century and a pioneering scientist of the 18th century, he also had little understanding of the derivation of the three laws.

Perhaps three to five years of research will allow him to make a breakthrough, but Jiang Huang will not use the last precious tenth of his life to care about irrelevant things - but on the other hand, his My curiosity couldn't be contained, so I always sat next to him and listened carefully.

What Duan Rui hopes is to have Cheng Jinzhou explain it to them in detail. They even asked him to join the team directly for discussion.

However, that will take up more time.

Improving the level of astronomy will directly increase the combat effectiveness of the astromancers, which is quite in line with Agent Cheng's interests.

He thought for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "I'm going back to De'an soon. Let's go back to De'an and form a team again."

Raising a duck is also raising a group of ducks, which is completely opposite to raising ducks. Cheng Jinzhou simply pulled out the entire team to avoid having to spend 20 years to systematize the star map.

Duan Rui felt a little regretful, but he was also a very smart man, so he immediately smiled and thanked him and nodded. Although the whole team research will dilute the weight of individuals, from the perspective of the entire Star Warlock world, what is the difference between 20 people and 5 people, or even 50 people.

Everyone was happy, Cheng Jinzhou also stood up with a smile, and smiled at Jiang Huang: "Mr. Jiang, I have to trouble you again."

"oh?"

"There are still a few special characters that need to be dealt with." Cheng Jinzhou said, pointing to the trainer badge on his chest.

Duan Rui didn't know what it was, but he said simply: "If Mr. Cheng still needs help, I can go back and find Erwin and the others."

"It's fine." Cheng Jinzhou is not a person who pays attention to what is sufficient.

Playboys always need a more gorgeous opening. As for waste, that has never been a problem.

Star warlocks in the Northern Han Dynasty basically belonged to the De'an family. It has to be said that due to the increasingly ambiguous political attitude of Warlock Jiang Huangxing, his existence is the main reason for the rapid development of the De'an Department. In addition, Cheng Jinzhou's "God's Favorite" is another promoting condition.

Bishop Kant stayed here for a long time, and took action many times in cases of unfair transactions, more than half of which were due to this. Otherwise, even if it is a fair deal - if someone can afford the price - whether the bishop will agree is another matter.

Hanking was so big, and the star warlocks who stayed in Hanking knew each other by name. Dozens of them acted together. Not only did the whole city know about it, but Phil and Andrew also heard the news.

In view of their status as fourth-level star warlocks, the situation between the two was more like house arrest than imprisonment. Moreover, they had their own star warlock apprentices to run errands, so they quickly sent someone to inquire.

So, just when Cheng Jinzhou was telling the archers and star warlocks about the goals of this trip. Child Zhao Yeyu appeared in front of him.

Zhao Yeyu put his hands on his hips and said the same childish words in a no longer childish voice: "Cheng Jinzhou, a gentleman acts aboveboard. If you have any business, why don't you inform me and Master first?"

"Inform you and Master?" Cheng Jinzhou could barely grasp the crossbow, his eyes widened and he didn't know why.

"Not bad." Zhao Yeyu looked serious and was definitely not joking.

Because what he said was so serious, Cheng Jinzhou took three seconds to really consider the cause and effect relationship, and finally decided: "Let's continue."

He didn't speak with his back to Zhao Yeyu.

The former Shota was not discouraged and continued loudly: "A gentleman is magnanimous and tells others everything. Master and I will follow you."

He simply decided for Phil.

After all, the Nanling Zhao family is a noble family. Cheng Jinzhou looked helplessly at the trainer badge on his chest, shook his head and said, "If you want to follow, just be obedient and stop talking nonsense."

Since we are chasing border crossers, it would be useful to take Phil with us.

Poor Comrade Phil, in his ignorance, he was sold by his apprentice, and the price was not sold at all.
