The wizard era begins with the alchemist wizard

Chapter 135 New Mission
"Academic seminar?"

The two people who had just arrived were slightly stunned, and then looked at Qiao Luode on the side.

"Academic seminar...is that what I'm thinking of?" Anna asked uncertainly.

"Yes and no." Qiao Luode said lightly.

"You are all my students, and your level is not better than mine. This academic seminar is basically the same as a lecture. The only difference is that you can put forward your own opinions, and you will not be thrown out of the classroom like you were when you were an apprentice."

After hearing what Qiao Luode said, the two of them were instantly certain in their hearts.

"Good lecture." Chucks said carelessly, "I'm also researching Spider Knight, so I'd like to take advantage of your presence, little junior brother, to hear your thoughts, teacher."

But Anna questioned it.

"Teacher, I study alchemical machinery. I don't think I can be of any use to you guys discussing knowledge about synthetic beasts."

"Hey, Senior Sister, what are you talking about?" Richard walked up to Anna and said, "We are all wizards, and time is not as tight as it was when we were apprentices. If you learn more, you will have more ways to deal with problems in the future.

In this war, the bodies of the Spider Knights recovered were all incomplete. But if they had systematically studied anatomy and synthetic zoology, they would have discovered that the Spider Knights had a fatal weakness at the waist. By exploiting this weakness, it would not be a problem to capture the Spider Knights alive. "

Anna was slightly stunned. What Richard said made sense.

"Besides, we are all students of the teacher. If we learn more knowledge, we can teach some apprentices in the future. Who knows, it may be able to carry forward the knowledge." Richard said with a smile.

"...Okay, but I can't really help you."

Seeing that the two agreed, Qiao Luode waved his hand and took the three people to his room.

Opening the developing crystal ball, the detailed anatomical diagram of the Spider Knight appeared in the air again.

"I have been studying the Spider Knight for some time, and I have discovered a lot of interesting things during these days."

Jorod pointed to the nerve center at the Spider Knight's waist.

"This nerve center is one of the Spider Knight's vital points. If it is destroyed, the Spider Knight's lower body will be paralyzed and his muscles will become paralyzed. Anna, you can remember this."

Anna nodded when she heard this and took out a notebook from her magic pocket and wrote it down.

"In addition, this nerve center itself is also a node of energy circulation. It and... this," Qiao Luode pointed to a tumor below the nerve center, "are responsible for converting the energy of the lower body of the spider into the upper body so that the black crystal worm can use it."

Chucks nodded when he heard this, then raised his hand and said:
"Teacher, how much have you studied about this transformation? I have studied that sarcoma..." Chucks paused subconsciously, and his wizard instinct made him stop leaking his research information.

"Go ahead, Chucks, we're all family." Joe Lord nodded slightly at Chucks, encouraging him to continue.

Academic seminars are not just his business.

"Okay, I'll continue." Chucks seemed to have made up his mind, "There is also a weak energy cycle inside this tumor. The structure of this cycle is somewhat similar to the three-type life and death energy conversion. However, due to time constraints, I haven't studied too much. This is the energy cycle diagram I studied."

As he spoke, Chucks took out a crystal ball from his pocket and released an extremely abstract energy cycle diagram.

"It does look like the third type of life and death energy conversion." Anna suddenly interrupted, "I have done some research on this thing. There is something wrong with your diagram."

Anna pointed to several energy nodes on the cycle diagram.

"You must have made a mistake at these two nodes. If the energy cycle was carried out according to this diagram, the tumor of the black crystal worm would have exploded long ago. It is probably like this..."

As she spoke, Anna drew several new energy lines with her fingers.

Looking at the students discussing, Qiao Luode, who was supposed to be the protagonist, was a little confused, but soon he smiled with relief.

Seeing his students display their talents, how could he not be proud as a teacher?

Soon, he joined the discussion.

"Anna, what you said is wrong. Living things and alchemical machines are two different things. Some energy cycles will cause some changes in living things..."

……

The academic seminar was very successful and it was a perfect attempt.

At this conference, Richard discovered for the first time that there were connections between some unrelated disciplines. A long-standing problem in one discipline might be solved as soon as one gets started in another discipline.

Richard learned a lot in this seminar, and also made some progress in the neural connection technology of black crystal worms.

And among them, Richard also got a problem that had been bothering him for a long time.

Why he was able to refine his skills from the Queen's Guards.

The answer to the question is simple, because the Queen's Guard's bladearm can no longer be considered an organ of the body, but more like an external tool.

Like a prosthetic limb.

To use an unlucky analogy, if Anna's robotic arm broke, Richard might be able to learn some skills from it.

This answer disappointed Richard a little, but it was consistent with his previous findings.

And on this basis, Richard slightly sensed the refining standards of the Miracle Furnace.

The refinement of certain skills may have something to do with difficulty and time.

According to Joe Lord, the older these queen guards are, the brighter their gold color becomes. And the one Richard encountered was indeed very bright in gold.

A skill may need to be used on a tool for many years before the furnace can refine the skill from the 'traces of use'.

The more complex the technique, the harder it is to leave a trace.

The Duke of Hesse at the time was just an ordinary man, and all he left behind were rudimentary swordsmanship, so it would only take a few decades to leave traces. However, this Queen Insect Guard may have lived for hundreds of years, and the skills he used involved energy circulation and muscle use, so it took hundreds of years of use to leave traces.

However, this is only an immature guess. Some skills cannot be explained by this theory, such as the spell inscriptions he extracted from the wizard robe.

However, any theory is full of loopholes at the beginning. Richard believes that he will be able to figure out the principles behind the extraction in the future.

The seminar lasted nearly ten days. The wizards didn't need to eat or drink, so ten days was basically nothing for them. After the seminar, everyone left satisfied, and even Anna gained a lot.

When leaving, Joe Lord patted Richard on the shoulder and said:

"Richard, that's a good idea. Maybe we can hold such activities more often in the future."

"As long as you think it's good."

Without a doubt, this is a good start.

……

After returning from Joe Lord, Richard began to apply the theory.

At the seminar, Joe Lord shared a diagram of the muscle structure and energy circulation of the Queen's Guard. With these two diagrams, the skills Richard extracted from the Queen's Guard can come in handy.

The most powerful thing about a wizard is that he can absorb the strengths of his enemies to strengthen himself.

After some adaptation, Richard began the actual operation.

The muscle structure began to deform due to the manipulation of flesh and blood, and the magic power also simulated the energy cycle of the Queen's Guards under the control of mental power.

When these two conditions were met, Richard found that he could not control his arms and suddenly swung them forward.

boom!
A sonic boom sounded.

Richard looked at his dislocated arm and scratched his head.

When used on humans, this skill is somewhat similar to a whip, with a power of about four hundred energy levels.

Much weaker than the original.

But this is normal. After all, Richard's muscles are not the muscles of the Queen's Guards, and his energy is also a more peaceful magic.

It's quite impressive to be able to produce such a powerful force.

But for Richard now, this power is obviously not enough.

However, power is only one aspect; the knowledge and inspiration Richard gained from it are more valuable.

He could combine knowledge with inspiration to make the black crystal worm's skills more suitable for wizards.

Learn from your enemy and adapt yourself.

This is how wizards become stronger little by little.

……

The days of rest passed quickly.

After receiving the mission props, Richard found Ellie and Lawrence in the residential area.

"Sneak into Hive No. 12 and wait for an opportunity to destroy or gather intelligence. The command will give you a reward depending on the importance of the intelligence."

Richard explained the content of his mission and looked at the other two people, who all nodded.

“That’s mine, too.”

"me too."

Richard raised his eyebrows: "Are they all from Hive No. 12?"

Ellie coughed awkwardly.

"I asked the teacher to change our positions. Since we are all going to sneak into the insect nest, let's go in together. Maybe one of us can help the other."

The task of sneaking into the insect nest cannot be carried out by a small team. The scope of the insect nest is quite large. If several dark wizards gather together, not only will they become a big target, but the efficiency of the task will also be reduced.

However, if several wizards are familiar with each other, they can carry out tasks in several adjacent areas so that they can look after each other when problems arise.

"Sure, Ellie." Richard was a little surprised. "See if there are any missions with low risk and high returns. I'll leave my mission to you from now on."

Ellie rolled her eyes at him and said, "How can it be that easy? We are not even in the middle of the war yet, and none of the missions have a low risk factor.

This kind of mission will only appear at the end of the war, but it will be given priority as a reward to those wizards who have performed well in the war. It would be good enough if we can get a mission with low risk and low return.

The command center is not a one-man show for teachers."

Lawrence, who was standing by, heard this and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that he also had someone above him.

The relationship has reached the headquarters.

After discussing the mission, several people began to head towards the mission location.

The Hive No. 12 that they sneaked into was not the main attack direction of the White Wizard Legion, so the protection inside the hive was relatively weak.

After all, the main force must gather in the direction of the main attack to prevent the White Wizard Legion from breaking through their defense line with one punch and losing another insect country.

No matter how great the strategic depth of the Black Mirror Bug is, it cannot be defeated in this way.

What Richard and his team have to do is to disrupt the order inside the hive as much as possible.

As for gathering intelligence... there is little hope for first-ring black wizards like them.

……

Under the eternal night, countless black-robed wizards gathered at the front line. They stared at the insect nest as tall as a mountain, preparing to enter it.
