My Endless Life

Chapter 22 Magic Technology Research Institute

"Hey, Warrant Officer Li Qi, good morning."

"Good morning, Lieutenant Miller, I didn't expect you to pick me up."

Downstairs in the dormitory, the middle-aged uncle Miller, who was once in charge of Li Qi's entrance examination, greeted Li Qi.

Li Qi responded politely and showed surprise appropriately.

He originally thought that Lieutenant Miller was a teacher at the military academy and was under the jurisdiction of the higher-ups of the military academy.

But now, Miller seems to be more like Bolent's subordinate or lieutenant, handling some chores that are inconvenient for Bolent.

Just like the current response.

But isn’t he a member of the logistics department?

Why did logistics get mixed up with the intelligence department?

Li Qi thought for a moment, but didn't ask any more questions. He raised his head and asked Miller:

"Lieutenant Miller, I wonder where Chief Bolent is taking this officer?"

"Huh? Minister, didn't he tell you?"

"The chief didn't say anything clearly at the time. He just told me that he would send someone to contact me over the weekend."

Li Qi responded calmly.

Miller nodded suddenly and said with a smile: "Maybe the minister wants to give you a surprise."

"surprise?"

"Yes, surprise, Warrant Officer Li Qi, you will know when you get there."

Miller sold it out a bit.

Although Li Qi was curious, he did not continue to ask. Instead, he got into the carriage with Miller and headed to the place he mentioned.

Because of the assessment conducted at the time of admission, Li Qi did not relax his vigilance throughout the entire process.

His superpowers and his own hearing operate at high power, and he observes everything around him.

Fortunately, it seemed that this time it was just a normal trip. Li Qi didn't find any ambush or other traps along the way.

The two of them arrived in front of an organization in the royal capital smoothly.

"Magic Technology Research Institute...?"

Li Qi read the name on the plaque softly.

Miller smiled at Li Qi and said: "It is a department that combines magic technology and science and technology. Many of our current battlefield technologies come from here."

After Miller's brief introduction, Li Qi also vaguely understood what kind of place this 'Technology Research Institute' was.

To put it simply, this is equivalent to the ancient Ministry of Industry, or the modern Academy of Sciences.

The only difference is that in addition to studying technology, magic is also being studied here.

Although magic has fallen behind, there are obviously still people who are unwilling to give up magic.

Some people are trying to combine magic and technology.

Li Qi figured out the key to this, and then thought of the reason why Bolent called him here.

The reason why Bolent and Li Qi agreed to meet on the weekend was because Li Qi said that the Magic Army would be weak in the future and explained the root cause of the Magic Army's weakness.

That is, weapons.

And now Bolent called him here and said he wanted to give him a surprise...

Could this science and technology institute have developed modern weapons that magisters can also use?

Enchant bullets?

Li Qi thought in his mind.

It's not like he hasn't tried before, using magic to enchant bullets, trying to use bullets to attack with higher power.

But it's a pity that Li Qi can't do it at all.

The magic power of firearms has poor circulation, perhaps because there are too many parts inside. Once the magic power enters it, it will be immediately dispersed, making it completely impossible to attach it to the bullet.

Even if you can barely attach the magic power to the bullet, it will be disconnected from the magic power the moment the bullet comes out of the chamber.

After all, the act of enchanting weapons with magic power requires the continuous flow of magic power.

Once the weapon leaves your hand, the magic attached to it will disappear instantly.

This is true for swords, and even more so for bullets.

Therefore, both Li Qi and the country's senior magisters gave up the idea of ​​adding magic to bullets.

But now it seems...the Academy of Science and Technology seems to have other inspirations?

There was no way to think about it outside. After thinking about it, Li Qi followed Miller into the Science and Technology Institute.

Showing his military officer ID to register, Miller led Li Qi while walking inside the Science and Technology Institute.

Li Qi also observed the internal routes and facilities of the Science and Technology Institute.

The architectural style of the Principality of Uno is a very classical Western European style.

Or to be more precise, it is similar to the architectural style of some Western European countries in the Middle Ages.

Therefore, when Li Qi first regained his memory, he thought he was in a magical country similar to the Middle Ages.

But the architectural style of the institute is different.

From the outside, although there are some Uno-style building exteriors, the interior is closer to the office buildings Li Qi has seen before.

It is square and square with sharp edges and corners, and there is a department logo posted above the door of each room.

Li Qi felt as if he had traveled through time again.

After following Miller for some distance, Li Qi clearly felt that the surrounding defenses had become tighter.

Even though Miller showed a special pass certificate, he still conducted two extremely strict checks before letting the two people in.

Are we almost there?

Following Miller, Li Qi thought in his mind.

With such tight defenses, it was conceivable that they were close to the core area of ​​the Academy of Science and Technology.

Thinking this, Li Qi calmed down and his expression became a little more serious.

After passing through the inspection gate, Li Qi took only a few steps before his eyes suddenly opened up.

An empty flat land, the size of two football fields, appeared in front of Li Qi.

There are various targets on the open field, and occasionally you can see a few members in white coats standing outside the target's warning line, talking to a certain non-commissioned officer.

Further away there are medical magisters on standby, as well as senior magisters who are used to set up soundproof magic circles.

To be honest, when he first came here, Li Qi thought he was at a training ground for new recruits.

If he hadn't seen the scientific researchers in white coats, Li Qi would have thought that this was a training ground prepared by the military camp.

After taking one look at the shooting range, Li Qi withdrew his gaze and followed Miller towards Bolent, who was standing in the distance.

Scarface Major Bolent was currently communicating with a white-haired old man wearing a white coat and glasses.

"Report! Warrant Officer Li Qi has been brought!"

Miller stood in front of Bolent, saluted and reported to Bolent.

Bolent raised his hand in symbolic response and said to Miller:

"Lieutenant Miller, thank you for your hard work."

After speaking to Miller, Bolent waved Miller away.

When only Li Qi and the old man in the white coat were left, Bolent smiled and asked Li Qi:

"Warrant Officer Li Qi, I think you must be wondering why I called you here?"

"Indeed, I don't quite understand your intention, sir."

Li Qi said slightly modestly.

Bolent smiled when he heard this, turned to Li Qi and introduced:

"Let me introduce you, the person next to me is the dean of the Magical Science and Technology Academy, Dr. Eric Levi. Dr. Levi... This is the person I recommend to you."

Bolent's last words were addressed to Dr. Reevy.

The doctor named Eric Reavie pushed up his glasses and looked at Li Qi. Then he squeezed his white eyebrows together and asked Bolrent with a surprised look on his face:

"...a child?"

"Dr. Levi, don't look at him as a child. He is a recipient of the Unicorn Medal. More enemy soldiers may have died in his hands than the soldiers you have seen."

Bolent said to Dr. Reevy.

After hearing what Bolent said, Dr. Reevy's brows relaxed a little.

He looked Li Qi up and down and asked:

"Your name is...Li Qi?"

"Yes, Warrant Officer Reach Glatt, hello, Doctor!"

"Okay, okay, don't be formal, let me see...what's your magic level?"

Dr. Levy asked, pushing up his glasses again.

Li Qi replied without hesitation: "Strategic level, doctor."

"!?"

Hearing Li Qi's self-introduction, Dr. Levi was obviously surprised. He looked at Li Qi more seriously this time.

Finally, he walked to the table beside him without saying a word, took out a red glass-like device the size of a food plate from the table, and brought it to Li Qi.

"You put it on and try it."

Dr. Levi handed the disc-shaped device to Reacher.

Li Qi took it from the other party's hand and looked at Bolent with a slightly confused expression.

Let’s not mention what this thing is.

Even if Li Qi wanted to wear such a big oval 'plate', he wouldn't be able to wear it!
