Studying Science in the Alternate World

boom!

The smoke composed of spirituality gradually dissipated, and Duke blew on the sand eagle's muzzle, then turned around handsomely, and inserted it into the waistband of his trousers.

The large-caliber armor-piercing projectile smashed the head of a spirit beast a hundred meters away.

"Not to mention doubling the power, it has also increased by at least 50%." Duke walked around the forest and tested the power of the Sand Eagle 2.2 large-caliber version.

There is a kind of sand eagle in hand, I have the feeling of the world.

The existence of Sand Eagle directly saves Duke a lot of arcane polishing time. In order to increase a little combat power, most of the arcane wonders on the ring track have built attack-type arcane wonders. Time consuming.

Only Duke can rely on Sand Eagle to get things done, and there are too many slots on the ring track.

And the combat power can also be stepped up.

The fighting power of other 3-ring arcane mages is only 3-ring. Although Duke is also a 3-ring arcane mage, but now the big arcan mage is in front of him, he may not be able to get too much money—especially the armor of the original energy and the armor of the arcane weapon. After the completion and the defense can keep up, the gap will be further narrowed.

"Xiaoyi, establish a new process and develop the Sand Eagle 2.3 bullet chain version." Duke issued a new order with satisfaction.

After the magazine was originally developed, a pair of magazines can be loaded with 30 rounds of ordinary bullets.

But now after the development of large-caliber bullets, a pair of magazines can only be filled with 24 rounds of ordinary large-caliber bullets, which is a full six rounds less.

It is far from Duke's Gatling-style Sand Eagle vision.

So he simply developed a bullet chain. Anyway, the Sand Eagle is a fantasy weapon, and the underlying logic is the rules of spiritual arcana. It is an arcane weapon, not a thermal weapon. With the basic support of the underlying logic, you can use your imagination as much as possible.

"Good master, a new process has been added for you."

Back at Duke Sage and Mage Tower, the sun had just risen. Duke had a simple breakfast and then took the shuttle to Cuihai City Union Tower.

As the chief executive, he doesn't need to come to work every day, he just needs to come back when something important happens, usually a few ordinary executives can share the daily affairs for him. It is said that in some cities, the Chief Executive of the Union Tower does not even come to the Union Tower several times a year.

The authority of the chief executive does not come from the position itself, but from the chief executive himself.

For example, Keyston Rage, even if he stayed in his mage tower for the rest of his life, the job of chief executive was emptied of by the rulers. As long as he wants, he can take back all power in an instant.

There is no other reason, he is the only 5-ring ocean arcanist in Heijiaohe.

The strength here is the criterion for testing the truth.

So is Duke.

Although his strength is not outstanding among arcanists, the deterrence brought by the title of double sages is no worse than that of a five-ring ocean arcanist.

Because behind him stood the stars, and it was the Seven Towers Federation that gave him the supreme status.

Who dares to disrespect a sage, then the stars will naturally teach him to be a man, and no one dares to break the rules passed down from generation to generation.

certainly.

In fact, most of the sages are themselves powerful arcanists. Academic achievement represents an excellent understanding of spiritual mysteries, and the knowledge of spiritual mysteries is itself the path of practice for an arcane master. The two complement each other.

"Good morning, Chief Regent."

"Good morning, my lord."

"Good morning, Lord Chief Regent."

After entering the United Tower of Cuihai City, the staff inside the tower saluted Duke one after another, and sent him away with attention.

Take the spiritual ladder to the top office, where Duke will work in the future.

"Sir, the decoration here is good, but it's a bit too plain." Mu Lali went around the office and chirped, "Should we mention it to the logistics department and let them redecorate it to suit your preferences, sir ?”

"There's no need to waste it again and again." Duke waved his hand indifferently. "This is just an occasional meeting. Duke's sage mage tower is the permanent place to live."

He opened the window, overlooking the entire Cuihai City.

new!

This was his first feeling.

The whole Cuihai City is brand new, with new roads, new buildings, new communities, new green plants, new shuttles and cars.

"Phew, there is only the tree king of the 3rd ring - the banyan forest, and you can still vaguely see the old scene." Duke quickly established a breathing resonance with the banyan forest, and then the entire inner city was basically under his surveillance, with all kinds of people Personnel appear in vague perception.

This is the ability of the 3-ring Great Spirit Envoy.

"I don't know when I will be able to light up the stars corresponding to the green banyan forest... If I had known that the dream of stars uses the tree king as the entrance and exit, I should have prevented the felling of the Wannian pine cone." Duke thought of another thing with regret. tree king.

Now the trunk of the Wannian pine tower has become the backbone of the Duke Sage Mage Tower.

"But it's hard to say. Once the large springs in Cuihai City are exploited, they may only be able to meet the needs of a tree king... Sooner or later, the Wannian Pine Tower will be cut down and become mine. A part of the mage tower is used to its full potential."

Turn around.

He ordered: "Mu Lali, go and invite the two deputies to come to the office to discuss matters."

"Good sir."

"Mu Lashan, go and inform the acting heads of the various departments that the meeting will be held in the conference room after ten o'clock."

"Yes, sir."

A few moments later, the two deputy governors rushed to Duke's office. Before the chief executive was elected, all the governors and executives could only act as agents. They had to wait for Duke to nod and sign the relevant documents before they could officially take office.

"The Chief Executive." The two saluted and said hello.

"Your Excellency Hamdi Snow Eagle, Your Excellency Hosue, please sit down." Duke gestured for the two to sit down, and then said gently, "Both of you are my old acquaintances, and they are quite familiar with the work of the Union Tower. In my experience, His Excellency Hamdi here will become a full-time official, and I will issue the document later."

Hamdi Xueying nodded with a smile and breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you, Chief Executive."

Speaking up.

Duke and Hamdi Xueying really have a relationship.

Duke had just been promoted to be an arcane master, and when he went to Penrose Master Tower to study, there was a classmate named Roroya Xueying, who was Hamdi Xueying's nephew.

Luo Luoya Xueying's father was married into the Xueying family, so after Luo Luoya was promoted to an arcanist, he was crowned with the Xueying family's surname.

After the evil molting, Roroya Snow Eagle seemed to be forced to go to Runwu City, and he is still studying in a certain mage tower. No one paid attention to him anymore, even Duke, the two were not very familiar with each other.

After solving Hamdi Snow Eagle's regularization, Duke looked at Hosue again: "Are you really not going to stay and take over the administration?"

"I'm sorry, Lord Duke." Hosue said politely, "I didn't want to act as an agent at first, but it was Lord Keyston's repeated orders, so I reluctantly agreed. Now the Lord is the chief executive, and Hamdi Your Excellency will help you with all your strength, so there is no need for me to contribute any more."

He doesn't have this ambition, and prefers to stay in the mage's tower to study academics.

"Well, since that's the case, I won't force it." Duke agreed to the other party's resignation, and he himself didn't plan to stay in the Union Tower.

If the subordinates are also absent-minded, the work of the Union Tower will definitely suffer.

Therefore, it is still necessary to find an arcane mage who is obsessed with affairs to take up the ruling position and share Duke's workload.

Originally he preferred Penrose, but he was embarrassed to let Penrose downgrade, so he had to give up.

After a pause, Duke asked, "I don't know many people. I don't know if there are any good candidates for the ruling of the two. Would you recommend them to me?"

Hamdi Snow Eagle is not yet familiar with Duke, so he doesn't know whether Duke really intends to ask, or just to find out about himself.

So stay silent and just shake your head.

Hosue was already planning to leave, so he didn't care whether Duke asked sincerely, and replied, "There is indeed a good candidate."

"Please say."

"Your Excellency Fruel." Hosue said, "Your Excellency Fruel has previously served as the joint tower of Shenjiao City. He is the external and internal supervisor. He is also a third-ring arcane mage. He is young and vigorous and should be able to take on the job of governing."

"Hmm!" Duke nodded. He remembered that Fruel took over the class of teacher Suktara and is currently serving as the internal supervisor of the Union Tower in Shenjiao City. The position of the tower's chief director."

Of course it wasn't elected, and it didn't even get a few votes.

However, it can also be seen from this that Fruel still has a lot of ambitions and wants to make a career in the five towers of Cuihai City.

So after Duke weighed it, he immediately asked someone to send an official letter to Fruel, formally inviting him to come to the Union Tower to be in charge.

Fruhl didn't hesitate, and immediately readily agreed.

So far, the governing framework of Cuihai City Union Tower has been determined. In the next few days, Duke inspected the department heads one by one and made them regular, formally confirmed the order in this tower, and began to transfer power smoothly. .

Previously, most of the work in Cuihai City was managed by Shenjiao City, but now, the United Tower where Duke is located takes over one by one.

Large conference room.

The five-tower meeting of Cuihai City was held for the first time. It was a local meeting of Cuihai City, unlike the ten-tower meeting in Heijiao River.

"Chief directors and governors, I believe that after a busy period of time, everyone has sorted out the work in hand." Duke sat at the head of the round table at the meeting, and deliberately grew a beard, looking more mature and stable.

There are teacups on the table, which looks like a meeting of veteran cadres.

"Today, I don't want to discuss too much fake content, such as the development direction of Cuihai City, the education of the people, spiritual cultivation and other topics, I will focus on one." Duke looked at the crowd, "Cuihai City's population!"

It has been a year and a half since the establishment of the city, and the current population of Cuihai City is less than 400,000.

Compared with Shenjiao City's population of nearly four million, the difference is ten times faster.

Most of them were relocated from the towns of Heijiaohe, as well as several surrounding areas and Runwu City.

There are less than 30,000 people who immigrated from other fields.

"Cuihai City is newly built, and there are opportunities everywhere, but opportunities are often accompanied by dangers, so people from other places want to come, but they dare not come." After Duke finished speaking, he began to ask, "About this point, do you have any questions?" thoughts?"

Boyton Wind Snake said: "The population issue is indeed the top priority. The chief executive, maybe we can increase investment in immigration advertisements. Recently, fantasy films have become popular all over the world. We can shoot some fantasy films about Cuihai City. The film is released externally."

Phantom is really popular. When Duke is practicing now, he can get a lot of spiritual feedback from the Seven Towers Federation and even overseas people every day.

Let him practice speed, a thousand miles a day.

But phantoms are only a kind of adjustment of spiritual life after all, and they belong to a kind of carrier. More and more film and television companies have risen and shot all kinds of phantoms, which has made the first-mover advantage of Cuihai City less obvious. .

After all, the construction of the entertainment capital was missing a key attraction.

after all.

We can't let Duke be a copywriter, reproducing classic movies on the earth all day long, to attract talents and grow the film and television industry.

Several other chief directors also put forward their own suggestions.

But Duke is not very satisfied. It always feels that it is attracting immigrants. Everyone's thinking is too conservative.

In the end, Duke himself suggested: "I think it should be divided into two steps. The first step is to promote Cuihai City and attract as many people as possible to come to Cuihai City to travel, start businesses, and settle down. The second step is to build public security and civilization in the city. Keep your heart!"

A city is basically an independent city-state, so Duke can fully display his talents in Cuihai City.

He continued: "We want to increase the sense of participation of ordinary people in urban construction, instead of only attracting Sanhai monks. At the same time, we must establish sound rules and regulations as much as possible to restrain all kinds of uncivilized phenomena and ensure the healthy growth of the city. "

After a pause, he continued: "Finally, we have to take the initiative to attract talents by maximizing preferential policies... My idea is to cooperate with the mercenary group and let them go to major cities to recruit people, and the round-trip fee will be reduced." We pay for everything, if you want to go back, we will send it, and if you stay, we will pay for the settlement.”

The plan is over.

Everyone discussed a few words with each other, and Boyton Wind Snake couldn't help asking: "Isn't this a bit too urgent, chief executive?"

The lifespan of an arcanist is usually one or two hundred years.

There is absolutely no need to make any achievements in a short period of time, and there is not much need for political achievements to maintain one's own status.

Utilitarianism, or aggressiveness, is usually not strong.

Duke wants to say in a deep voice: "The era is developing and progressing. It is no longer a reckless era in which our ancestors moved forward. It will be an era of soaring... We must make all preparations before the era comes."

Then, he said: "Next, I will launch a birth-encouraging policy, and establish a Sanhai pharmaceutical industry in the city, as well as free medicines for the whole people, to ensure that people can take them safely, and to give everyone the opportunity to practice."

"Hiss..." Hout Warthog took a deep breath.

Others were also lost in thought, or looked at each other for a while, and did not immediately respond enthusiastically to Duke's move.

It is something that the Seven Towers Federation has been doing all the time, but not every arcanist supports it. Resources seem to be endless, but for Arcane Masters, every additional one means more competition and less sense of superiority.

After a while.

Jovis Bobcat said: "My lord, the opportunity has long been open to civilians. Whether they can seize it is their business. Why should we promote this?"

As long as civilians are willing to spend money, they can always buy gas-increasing potions, blood-boiling potions, and awakening potions.

"But it's not enough!" Duke said, "Sanhai Pharmacy is risky, which prevents the desire of a large part of the people. Many people generally believe that it is possible to cultivate to a high level only when it is opened naturally, and the potential is very limited when it is opened by taking drugs. This has aggravated the concerns of the public.”

It seems that my persuasion is not very sufficient.

Duke simply raised a banner and said, "I shouldn't have revealed it to you, but I still plan to tell you."

Everyone looked at Duke.

Duke said indifferently: "That day in the Holy City of Arcane, I activated the will of the stars and got some enlightenment about the future."

Whoa!

Several chief directors and governors all changed their faces and pricked up their ears, for fear of missing any word.

"Because the stars have sealed most of the content by contract, I can't reveal much, but I can tell you that the future will be an era of tremendous development. Just like the wheels of the black beetle car, rolling forward, crushing everything."

He said, looking at everyone present in turn: "And we are living in such a changing era. Whether the big waves wash away the sand and go down with the sand, or the tide recedes and the gold shines, it depends on your choice."

Everyone immediately looked at me and I looked at you.

Feeling heard, but not listening.

I don't know what Duke leaked, and what kind of enlightenment the will of the stars gave.

But looking at Duke's expression of "you earned it", they seem to feel that they have really realized a lot, which is worth pondering carefully.

"All in all, the future will be a frenzy of development involving the participation of all people. Our Seven Towers Federation will also follow the trend of the times, step out of the corner of the wild continent, and embark on a bigger and wider world." Duke made a summary.

Karius Flamingo wiped the sweat from his head, and said involuntarily, "My lord, is the Manghuang Continent considered a corner?"

He said with some disapproval: "The north is an extremely cold place, and the east, south and west are surrounded by the sea. The current mainstream view is only the west and north of our Seven Towers Federation, and the south of the Golden Empire. We can continue to develop the land.”

Duke raised an eyebrow.

This is indeed the case in the academic circles.

Almost all the spiritual springs that can be found have been found, and eighteen countries have covered most of the Manghuang Continent.

To the east is the direction from which human beings have migrated. It is the boundless Great East China Sea. In the distance is only the legendary island of knights.

To the south, the Rainstorm Empire at the southernmost point has already explored the boundless Great South China Sea. In the south of the Golden Empire next door, although there are still some areas that have not yet been explored, it is speculated that it will soon reach the Great South China Sea, sooner or later.

To the west is the endless sea.

Except for the scattered islands, there is no land. Once the exploration of these islands is completed and it is determined that there is no hope of land, it will be officially named Daxihai.

To the north, except for the Ice and Snow Kingdom, most of the area is frozen all year round, and it is so cold that arcanists cannot gain a foothold or explore.

Moreover, under the solid ice, some arcane masters once dug down to the dark deep sea, so most arcane masters recognized that there is also a Great North Sea in the north, but it was sealed by ice.

In other words, this planet is a vast ocean star.

There is only a small piece of land, the Manghuang Continent, suspended in the endless ocean, living alone and multiplying.

There is even a saying that the Manghuang Continent is located on one side of the planet, surrounded by sea water, and the other layer of the planet facing the Manghuang Continent is the origin island of knights, which is far smaller than the Manghuang Continent. times the islands.

The source of knights cannot accommodate the reproduction of human beings, and this is how the great voyages and migrations in ancient times occurred, and finally found the Manghuang Continent.

Many arcane masters also firmly believe this.

But Duke didn't believe it. He looked at Karius and said seriously: "It's far more than that. The Wild Desolate Continent is almost endless. Of course, I can't answer how big it is, but the will of the stars tells me that it is very big. Big, unimaginably big!"

Can it be small?

Every time he enters the dream of stars, Duke can light up dozens of stars, but so far, he has only found the king of trees, King Xueshan, distributed in the human territory.

With such a probability, it really cannot be said that humans have already reclaimed most of the Manghuang Continent.

Either the Manghuang Continent is very large, or there is a new continent beyond the endless sea. In short, the land area of ​​the planet Manghuang World is absolutely beyond imagination.

"Is it really that big?"

"It's huge!"

Boyton Wind Snake pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "I believe in the chief executive, and I am also very glad that we humans still have more habitats to open up. Your lord has been inspired by the will of the stars, and he will definitely lead us in Cuihai City to the To develop a better tomorrow."

In any case, at the first five-tower meeting, Duke's will was carried out.

With several other members of the Five Towers Conference, we also had a certain run-in and communicated with each other's ideas and propositions.

Cuihai City is on the right track. Not only has the construction not stopped, but it has become even more fervent.

all summer.

Duke is busy at his job in the Union Tower in Cuihai City.

While continuing to study and practice, the classes are not interrupted every morning and evening, and fellow practitioners in the three seas are uninterrupted; while adapting to the status of chief executive, formulating various development policies and strategies for Cuihai City.

Before I knew it, it was September in early autumn.

The autumn tiger was still raging, but there was already a hint of coolness in the morning. After enjoying a breakfast, Duke left his tower.

Take a shuttle and fly from the middle of the mountain to the foot of the mountain.

Instead of flying towards the city along the road, they stopped in front of a gate at the foot of the mountain. At this moment, a large number of people had gathered in front of the gate.

Wait until the shuttle opens the door.

A group of arcane mages, knights, and spiritual envoys headed by Suktara applauded immediately to welcome Duke.

Waving to the crowd, Duke is used to the spectacle.

As the chief executive of the United Tower of Cuihai City and the leader of the entire city, it can be said that everything in this city revolves around him.

When he is promoted to the stars, there will be even bigger scenes waiting for him.

"Duke, congratulations, Lingyashan Sanhai University will be the world's first professional institution of higher education." Suktala smiled and hugged Duke, looking at his successor, The achievements are getting bigger and bigger, and I am full of joy.

Duke also responded with a smile: "Teacher, as the first president of Lingyashan Sanhai University, you will also be recorded in history."

Today marks the official opening ceremony of the first university prepared by Duke.

Previously in the Suktara Mage Tower, the classification of primary school, middle school, and university had been implemented, but it was not independent from the Mage Tower.

Lingyashan Sanhai University is the first university that was actually built.

It is called Sanhai University, and it is actually a comprehensive institution. It not only has spiritual knowledge, blood sea, and Qi sea practice knowledge professors, but also has a variety of cultural courses to cultivate professional talents from all walks of life and industries. .

There are more and more people.

All kinds of flying shuttles rushed in one after another.

Most of the guests do not need to be received by Duke. His status is too noble, so he just needs to sit in the school auditorium and wait.

A group of arcanists surrounded him, looking for opportunities to chat with him.

At this time, a familiar arcanist came to him, came to Duke, bowed and saluted: "Master Duke, congratulations on the establishment of Sanhai University in Lingya Mountain."

It's not someone else.

It was Delari, who had a rift with Duke.

He stretched out his hand and didn't hit the smiling person, since the other party came to congratulate him sincerely, he wouldn't ignore it, but he really had nothing to say to the other party.

Then he saw a young man brought by the other party, and asked, "This is the son, right? The bell rang a few days ago for him, right?"

The young man immediately took a step forward, bowed respectfully and saluted: "Deron Kaishu, pay homage to Lord Duke!"

"That's right, young and promising, the future of Cuihai City is hopeful." Duke smiled.

In fact, Deron Kaishu is already twenty years old, only two years younger than Duke. His talent is not outstanding, and the future of Cuihai City is definitely not on him.

after all.

He is probably an ordinary arcane mage in this life, and his lifespan is limited. He is destined not to survive Duke, so how can he take on the future of Cuihai City.

After greeting De Laili Kaishu, he bowed and left, and took Deron Kaishu to find a seat by himself.

At the beginning of the month, ask for a guaranteed monthly pass~
