Studying Science in the Alternate World

Guided by Sorel, he left the Suktara Mage Tower and was going to go outside to concentrate on research. This was something Duke only found out when he was invited to the farewell party.

The farewell party was a buffet, held in a cafeteria in the castle.

In addition to Teacher Suktara and the three 1st-ring arcane mage students, several arcan mages who had left before also rushed back.

Duke found the opportunity and toasted Sorel who came over: "I didn't expect Sorel to leave so soon. I also want to find an opportunity to ask you some questions in the field of life."

Sorelton stopped.

The red wine glass in his hand shook slightly, his eyes lingered on Duke for a long time, and he felt a little nervous when he saw Duke, and then he said calmly: "You are very good, Duke, I hope you can continue to be so lucky and inherit the teacher's life. Research."

Without drinking, Sorell left after speaking, not interested in talking to Duque.

"Sir, Your Excellency Sorel, you are so rude." The little assistant Mu Lali came over with a wine glass, "He won't even drink your toast, sir, what is he so proud of, isn't he just a ring 2 arcanist? In a few years, sir, you will definitely be a 2-ring arcanist."

She was really angry, feeling that the entire Su family in the restaurant was hostile to her and Duke.

"Keep a low profile, Lili." Duke chuckled, "Everyone has their likes and dislikes. I'm not the golden dragon of the federal currency. Everyone likes and respects me."

Send Mu Lali away.

Duke simply found a corner by himself and silently watched the other people socialize.

This level of indifference did not cause any fluctuations in his heart. In his previous life on earth, he ran a soybean oil factory, and as the owner of a small factory, he had experienced a lot of indifference.

Not to mention cold reception, even being humiliated, I have experienced it a lot.

"But having said that, the attitude of Sorel and the people of the Su clan towards me is indeed a bit wrong, with strong hostility." Duke shook his glass, not interested in drinking, "It stands to reason that I didn't do anything, just because I became a student of Teacher Suktara, so you are hostile to me?"

This logic makes no sense.

Duke then thought of other aspects: "Being hostile to me must be a conflict of interest between me and them, what kind of conflict of interest it will be... It should have something to do with me being the successor of Teacher Suktara, could it be that they thought Am I here to grab the Mage Tower?"

Although he didn't have the idea of ​​grabbing the mage's tower, he couldn't help others think so.

"That's right, Morris said that the Suktara Mage Tower has been purged recently, and many members of the Su clan have been purged out... They must think that this is Teacher Suktara who wants to abandon the Suktara people." signs, after all, the two parties are not real blood relatives."

The blood of Suktara's elder brother or younger brother is shed on the body of the current Su clan, not Suktara's own blood.

There will be betrayal and abandonment even between blood relatives, let alone relatives separated by a layer.

"But why Sorel is hostile to me, and those three 1st-ring arcane mages don't seem to be very enthusiastic about me. Could it be because of the people of the Su clan?"

"wrong!"

Duke didn't believe that Sorel and others would turn against an arcanist like him for the sake of ordinary people.

Therefore, there must be a conflict of interest between each other: "So what is the conflict of interest between Sorel and me?"

Reminiscent of Sorel's sudden departure, Duke vaguely guessed something: "Could it be that they are hostile to me because they think that the teacher will tilt the resources of the mage tower to me? And because they can't get the resources, That's why Sorel left?"

It seems to have figured it out, but after all, it's just deliberation.

Duke thought for a while before giving up and continuing to think deeply: "Forget it, it's none of my business, as long as it doesn't affect me, I don't care why Sorel left!"

He took a sip of the wine, and his mood returned to ease: "I was cultivated by Teacher Suktara based on my ability, so why should I care about other people's opinions? Even if Teacher Suktara wants to give me the mage tower, I am not embarrassed , as accepted!"

Duke, who thinks through, eats and drinks as usual, regardless of whether others are enthusiastic or indifferent to him, it is reasonable to take care of his stomach first.

After eating and drinking, the farewell party is over.

Duke took Mu Lali and left. Before returning to Tower 2, he saw Assistant Subbotan waiting at the door with a smile on his face.

"Your Excellency Duke, please go to class as usual."

"Eh..." Duke took out his pocket watch and glanced at it. It was already past eight o'clock. Unexpectedly, Suktara would not let it go even tonight. "Teacher just returned from the farewell party, don't you want to take a break?"

"My lord left early from the farewell party, took a bath, and asked me to come over to inform you."

"Okay, I'll go to class now."

When Duke passed by, Suktara had already prepared the teaching materials and waited for Duke to arrive with a smile on his face. It really didn't waste any time.

Concentrating his mind, Duke also focused on his studies.

"The spirituality contained in each kind of spiritual material is different. Even if the selection criteria of spiritual materials of the same species are the same, there will be countless gaps in spirituality. Only by grasping this slight gap can you practice Prepare the required spiritual materials."

"We alchemists have been passed down from ancient times to today, and even the profession was born longer than arcane mages. As long as the knights conquered the forest, alchemists had already begun to refine gold and crack the mystery of material transformation."

"Duke, you were born an alchemist, I can feel your talent."

"Don't waste it, teacher, I will train you to be a qualified alchemist!"

Suktara would always describe Duke's future blueprint between teaching sessions, encouraging him to continue exploring in the field of alchemy.

Big pie can't attract Duke.

But the joy of learning knowledge allowed him to patiently listen to Suktara's teaching and cooperate with Xiaoyi to raise various doubts.

The interaction is frequent and the teacher-student relationship develops rapidly.

At least in Suktara's mind, it has become more and more certain that Duke is her successor bestowed by spirituality to make up for her regrets in the last stage of her life.

Dangdang.

Butler Su Li knocked on the door, reminding the teaching practice to be over.

"Teacher, then I'll take my leave first." Duke began to tidy up the materials on the table. They were all ordinary spiritual materials, which were used as teaching materials.

Suktara nodded with a smile: "Rest early, child."

Exit Tower 1.

Calling on the drowsy little assistant, Duke took advantage of the moonlight and walked on the main road of the castle. The street lights were still on, and there was a patrolling guard knight team not far away, patrolling in formation.

suddenly.

Behind a big tree in front of Duke, a person turned out, not a stranger, but Sulaier, the manager of the mage tower and castle.

The leader of the Su clan, the lord of the castle.

At this time, Su Laier was full of alcohol and looked drunk. He stopped in front of Duke and stared blankly at Duke with red eyes.

There were no waves on Duke's face, and Xiaoyi and Lingzhi in the castle always breathed and resonated, so as long as there was Lingzhi, no one could hide in front of him.

He had known for a long time that Su Laier was hiding behind a big tree.

"You are a villain!" Su Laier suddenly grinned, and laughed sinisterly, "You have evil intentions, and you are coming to the Suktara Mage Tower!"

Duke's expression remained unchanged.

But Mu Lali couldn't take it anymore, and immediately fought back loudly: "You are a villain, my husband is a genius arcane master, Mr. Suktala invited him several times, and he agreed to come to study, you villains, don't Turn black and white!"

"Fart! Duke, you dare not admit it, right? What kind of arcane mage are you? You covet other people's mage towers. Don't you know how to make money yourself! Aren't you a genius arcanist? If you have the guts, go build the mage tower yourself. Come here! Don't you feel ashamed to snatch my Su Clan's mage tower!"

Su Laier pointed at Duke's nose and questioned loudly.

But he found that Duke, and Mu Lali, who was still angry before, looked at him indifferently, without saying a word.

He became more and more arrogant, his eyes widened and he roared angrily: "I dare not speak anymore, I was stabbed in my mind, haha, I knew it, you are just a villain!"

He scolded fiercely, but Duke and Mu Lali in front of them still had the same expression and did not speak.

The patrolling knight guards seemed to have been ordered, and they were indifferent to the yelling and scolding here, and went straight to patrol the front.

On Tower 1 not far away, a window was pushed open.

Suktala stared down coldly, only seeing Su Laier, pointing at the air in front of him and yelling, and the scolding became more and more intense.

The real Duke and Mu Lali had already walked to the gate of Tower 2, and entered the gate without looking back.

What remained in front of Sulaier was only the fantasy arcane technique cast by Duke.

"Sully."

"Old lady." Butler Su Li bowed forward.

"This embarrassing thing, you know how to deal with it."

"Yes, old lady."

"Deal with it as soon as possible. I don't want these people to cause any disturbance between me and Duke. If it can't be done, I will change it."

Su Li took a deep breath: "Madam, please rest assured."

...

"Sir, why are you taking me away? I still want to scold that Sulaier." Mu Lali, who returned to the No. 2 tower, was still angrily.

"What are you scolding for? This is the teacher's castle, so you have to show the teacher face." Duke knocked the little assistant loudly.

"That can't be scolded by others for nothing."

"There are a thousand ways to solve a problem, and cursing is the least practical way." Duke waved his hands, ready to take a shower.

Mu Lali was still not convinced, and snorted, "It's the most comfortable to swear."

The next day was Saturday, and instead of going to work at the Penrose Mage Tower, Duke was called by Suktarah early in the morning to attend class.

In Suktara's words, her lifespan is running out, and she is fighting for the day and night.

I don't get free time until noon.

On the way to dinner, I saw the butler Su Li, who hurried over while wiping the sweat from his forehead.

"Your Excellency Duke."

"Mr. Sully, what's the matter?"

"I'm sorry that you couldn't enjoy the quietness in the castle due to the interference of some factors. The old lady scolded me, and now everything has been resolved, and no one will disturb you anymore." Steward Su Li said quickly, "Your knights can also rest assured to train in the castle."

Duke nodded happily: "Although I don't know what happened, thank you very much, Mr. Sully."

"This is what I should do."

"I also hope that you can replace me and tell some people that when I move in, I only want to follow the teacher to learn alchemy knowledge, and I don't have any other pursuits." Duke said frankly, "I have my own secrets outside. cause."

"Your thirst for knowledge is admirable, but please rest assured that no one will pester you again, this is what the old lady means."

After a pause, Butler Su Li smiled slightly: "I only serve the old lady, there is no doubt about it."

"I understand, thank you, Mr. Sully."

"May the spirit bless the old lady and you."

After talking with Chief Steward Su Li, Duke truly felt that the atmosphere of the entire castle had changed, and no one from the Su Clan dared to show cold eyes to him.

Vivienne led the guarding knights to train, and there would be no big knights who were not open-eyed to find fault.

on the contrary.

While Duke was taking a stroll, a patrolling knight team passed by, and the first knight left the team and came straight to Duke.

"Your Excellency Duke, the new knight captain of Suktara Mage Tower, Herdos greets you."

"Hello, Captain Herdos." Duke returned a salute, then asked curiously, "I feel the breath of a phantom beast, are you a phantom beast knight?"

"Your perception is amazing. Indeed, I am an Eudemons knight, and I was cultivated by Master Suktara, so I have the strength I have today." Herdos is about forty years old, and his height is close to two meters, " If you have anything to do in the castle, just give me an order."

After saying hello, Herdos said goodbye and left.

Duke watched the other party gallop on horseback, feeling quite emotional in his heart, the power of the 3-ring Arcane Mage should not be underestimated.

Although Suktara did not train a descendant of arcane masters, among the knights under him, there are 2-ring Eudemons knights.

"As nobles, the Black Snake family has only cultivated Muhans Black Snake, a 2-ring Phantom Beast Knight..."

"certainly."

Duke thought: "If the teacher has descendants, I'm afraid he will launch a pioneering war to compete for a noble title and start his own family... It's a pity that the Su clan is not up to date, and the teacher's life goal is to find a successor."

Time flies.

In a blink of an eye, September 15th arrived.

At this point, Duke asked for leave on purpose, and sat in the headquarters of the Light Giant Spirit Tool Company, watching Runwanjia launch a competing product, the Spirit Lamp.

At the first time, people bought a batch of lamps of the Emmanuel lamp series.

Disassemble the research one by one.

"This is simply a change in the shape of the portable lamp. The lamp head, buttons, and even the design of the card machine interface are plagiarized!" A designer in the R\u0026D department reprimanded loudly, "My lord, you must sue Runwanjia for patents. Infringement."

"If there is a lawsuit, it will be regarded as structural infringement at most, and the luminous structure is still the luminous structure of the Lingfeng lamp." Another designer said in a deep voice.

"It's nothing to infringe on the appearance, the key is to infringe on the creativity of adults!"

"Yes, the difference between the portable lamp and the spiritual wind lamp, as long as the people in the Learning Tower are not blind, they will be able to tell the difference."

"I'm afraid they won't recognize it even if they figure it out, and they'll spend a lot of time in a lawsuit with us."

"Then go to court!"

Everyone in the company shouted in outrage.

General Manager Vuillard came to Duke: "Mr. Duke, shall we sue Runwanjia for infringement?"

"Of course." Duke put down the magic lamp he was playing with in his hand, "Didn't you contact the lawyers? There was nothing wrong with the magic lamp. It just copied the product and went to Boxue Tower to sue Runwanjia for infringement, and then contacted the reporter to stir up the lawsuit. .”

"yes."

"By the way, how much is the price of this aura lamp?"

"The lowest aura lamp is priced at 35 copper dragons, and our cheapest portable lamp is priced at 45 copper dragons... However, Runwanjia has not launched a portable lamp with a built-in storage card, and they have not launched any products with a built-in storage card. .”

"The reason is very simple. The built-in storage spirit card technology is unique to me. If they copy it, it is easy to determine the infringement. Only the structural creativity of the portable lamp can be used to improve and optimize the spiritual wind lamp. The people behind Runwanjia can carry it. live."

Duke smiled and didn't care, but said: "According to the original plan, we will also lower the price when they lower the price, and the agents in other cities will also lower the price, and we will compete for the market at a loss!"

110,000 Golden Dragons were raised.

Just to fight the price war.

Duke didn't panic at all, but expected the Runwan family to follow up quickly, and fight from Shenjiao City to the entire Fengxi territory, and the sky was dark and the earth was dark.

"Yes!" Vial responded excitedly.

He is one of the few people who knows the technology of strong light hand lamps, and he also knows Duke's entire business competition plan. There are not many moves, but they are quite clever.

It is absolutely possible to tear off a big piece of fat from Run Wanjia, let the giant of light eat to its full, and then really gain a firm foothold in Shenjiao City and even the entire Seven Towers Federation.

"Okay, go get busy and call Shacron over."

"yes."

Shacron is the brother-in-law of Muhans Black Snake, the uncle of Mu Lali, the vice-captain of the Serpent Head Town Security Knights, and a 1st-ring Grand Knight.

"Mr. Duke." Shakron saluted.

"You're welcome, Shakron." Duke smiled. "My name is Uncle Muhans. You are his brother-in-law. We are all one family."

Shacron replied with a smile: "Yes, a family."

"How about it, working two jobs, are you tired?"

"Fortunately, the mayor gave me a vacation for a while and allowed me to work on the second phase of the factory building first, so I'm not so tired."

"That's good. The second phase of the plant must be kept secret."

"I understand, please rest assured."

Sha Kelong has been appointed by Duke as the deputy general manager of the Light Giant Spirit Tool Company and the factory director of the Snake Town factory.

Responsible for the secret construction of a new factory in Sheshou Town, which is used to produce a series of strong light hand lamps.

Relying on the current series of portable lamps, table lamps, and headlights alone, it can compete with Runwanjia's aura lamp series, but it is unrealistic to defeat Runwanjia.

Even if the patent infringement is won, the other party can still sell while losing money.

However, the patent pool of strong light hand lamps is much deeper than that of portable lamps. If Runwanjia dares to infringe the rights, the Giant of Light can rely on the infringement fees to make money lying happily.

In fact, many polymaths who hold patents for spiritual tools do not set up factories or companies themselves, but rely on patent licensing to make money.

Runwanjia has obtained the exclusive agency rights of many patents in Shenjiao City.

"I asked Mu Lali to arrange for lunch together at noon." Duke finished his business and invited Shacron and others.

Following Duke's order, the entire Giant of Light took action.

The giants of light have promoted the spiritual tool stores where Runwanjia put products, supplemented the products and set the price on the same standard as Runwanjia.

Where Runwanjia puts slide card advertisements, there are slide card advertisements for giants of light.

In addition, the Giant of Light also has a subsidy. Every time a lamp is sold for the Giant of Light, a subsidy of one copper dragon or two copper dragons will be given to the store, prompting the shop owner to actively sell the portable lamp of the Giant of Light to customers instead of the aura lamp.

In addition, the legal department of the Giant of Light directly filed a lawsuit against Run Wanjia against Boxue Tower.

At the same time, they paid a lot of money to publish infringement lawsuits in newspapers, exaggerating Runwanjia's patent infringement against the giant of light, disrespecting knowledge, disrespecting the laws of the Seven Towers Federation, and disrespecting spiritual mysteries.

A great battle about lighting was launched vigorously.

In just one week, the Giant of Light received good news.

According to the investigation team's tracking of data from several spiritual tool stores in Shenjiao City, relying on price cuts and subsidies, the sales volume of portable lamps far exceeds that of aura lamps, and is several times that of aura lamps.

In addition, we have also negotiated a group of agents with other cities to provide agents with portable light series products at low prices, blocking the export road of Runwanjia.

The giant of light holds the patent, and is not afraid of losing money at all, and there will be a day when it will make it back.

Runwanjia had to strangle the giant of light to death and then buy the patent rights, otherwise, as long as it was defeated, it would have to pay huge patent infringement fees.

"Keep working hard, don't be afraid, we have plenty of Golden Dragons!" Duke said at the company meeting with high spirits, "Keep an eye on Runwanjia, and we will also lower prices when they cut prices. Unless they join hands with arcane masters from other places to suppress us, we will never retreat Half a step!"

"My lord, what if it is blocked by an arcanist from another city?" Corytia, the deputy general manager of full-time sales, asked.

"Then take a step back and release products directly to ordinary spirit tool stores. If it doesn't work, we can withdraw from this city, or directly cooperate with the local spirit tool factory. The Wind Breath Domain has eight regions under its jurisdiction, and we win half of it! "

After a pause, Duke continued: "And let's not just focus on the Wind's Breath domain, the twelve domains of the Seven Towers Federation are our battlefields...The geographical locations between the domains are too far away, and product transportation is inconvenient. Directly cooperate with the local production, and earn a little patent licensing fee!"

The territory of the Seven Towers Federation is so vast that even airships cannot traverse it.

An area like Shenjiao City is basically equivalent to a province on the earth; the Fengxi domain is even as large as half of China; so the Seven Towers Federation is basically equivalent to the total area of ​​the earth's continents combined.

In such a vast area, the route distance has been continuously extended. Some dangerous routes can only be traversed by airships and warships. It is really inconvenient to trade goods.

So patent licensing is the best way.

If the giant of light can occupy half of the Fengxi field, it can be regarded as a giant company and successfully dominate the lamp light source market.

So, another week passed.

Time has entered October in a blink of an eye, and autumn has quietly arrived, and some trees on the streets of Shenjiao City have begun to turn yellow and lose their leaves.

Run Wanjia, whose sales were miserable by the giant of light, finally came to his senses.

"My lord, the giants of light don't speak honesty. Their sales team colludes with the spirit tool store and subsidizes one or two copper dragons for every product sold. So those store owners are trying their best to promote portable lamps, and even sell our The lamp is hidden in the corner."

The person in charge of sales, with his head down, reported to the chairman, Kleinda.

Kleinda, who is a third-ring arcane mage, was so angry that her liver hurts: "What a bunch of trash, since you know it, don't imitate it! They subsidize one or two copper dragons, and we subsidize two or three copper dragons!"

"Yes, my lord, I will arrange it now."

"Also, how is the contact with the partners in several cities outside?"

"Already in talks, but... but the price given by the giant of light is the same as ours, and they have patent rights, so... for now, we are still fighting for..." The sales manager replied stumbled, they did not expect , the giant of light dared to fight recklessly.

Even the discount given was lower than that given by Runwanjia.

"What a bunch of trash, if you count on you, Runwanjia might as well close its doors!" Kleinda waved the sales manager to leave.

Immediately, he called his secretary: "Send a letter to His Excellency Mesta in Spike City, telling him that I am going to visit the Mesta Mage Tower. It is a private visit and no academic preparation is required."

"Yes, my lord."

"In addition, write to His Excellency John in Rainbow Bay City, and His Excellency Lovekis in Huoyoudi...inviting them to visit my mage tower."

"As you wish."

The secretary went to work.

Clarinda rubbed her temples, with a sullen look on her face: "A little 1-ring arcanist, how dare you compete head-on with me!"

He clenched his fist with one hand and squeezed his fingers loudly: "Since I was injured in the war, my spiritual core was permanently damaged, and I had to change from an arcanist to an arcane scholar. I have been suppressed everywhere, and I can't get a scholar title. , now even a little 1-ring arcanist dares to fight against me!"

The more I think about it, the angrier I get.

Clarinda now just wants to vent all her anger on the Giant of Light, and just wants to completely destroy this small company that dares to compete with him.
