Alone and Infinite.

Chapter 650 Li Xia Goes to School
Are you questioning my calculations?

Madao snorted coldly, deciding to take care of the underachiever and directly gave his conclusion:
"If you combine the strength of your single arm with the strength of the bow arm, I estimate that the energy output of this slingshot can reach 400 to 500 million joules at an instant."

If you don't really have a concept of this, then you know Barrett, right? Its kinetic energy is only a little over 10,000 joules.

Four or five hundred times the output!

If a small sphere made of super-steel steel is used to stimulate it, as long as it can withstand the deformation and does not self-destruct, it may even reach a terrifying speed of 100 times the speed of sound!
Even with a balanced 1-kilogram ammunition, it can reach speeds of over ten times the speed of sound, combining extremely high penetration and strong impact with stable accuracy!

Madaro proudly raised his head:
Do you know what the biggest advantage of a slingshot is?

Li Xia tentatively said:
"One meal is all you need for every hundred shots?"

"Pooh!"

Madaro said irritably:
"The advantage is that you can quickly select ammunition according to different needs!"

To penetrate and hit enemies with high defense, choose lightweight ammunition with extremely high speed and maximum kinetic energy. It's unbeatable for penetrating armor/hard targets!

If you want to destroy buildings, use high-quality materials to maximize the impact and the shockwave/area destruction!

Moreover, the bullets used in slingshots are different from bullets; they are essentially high-strength steel balls.

It's also cheaper than high-grade bullets!

This time, Li Xia understood. The gun was actually just a launcher; its power depended entirely on the bullets. It was an external object and had little to do with the Apostle's own strength.

Therefore, bullets have always been quite expensive inside the Hall of Light.

But a slingshot is different; it's a bit like a hidden weapon, and how much damage it does depends entirely on the material of the slingshot and how strong it is.

As for Li Xia's concerns about the power—

All I can say is that a slingshot combined with one's own arm strength has a kind of numerical beauty; the extreme values ​​bring terrifying destructive power!
"So, slingshots are indeed feasible, and quite powerful?"

"It's more than just big! Let me put it this way, no single-target ranged weapon in the fourth tier can compare to it!"

Even the best orange-tier sniper rifle won't work; it still consumes bullets. The bullet limit for Tier 4 is fixed, unless you get some kind of enchantment or something that makes each shot incredibly painful to fire.

But who says slingshot ammunition can't be enchanted?

Madao patted the dragon tendon leather rope beside him:
"Just leave it to me. The bow materials will probably cost more than 20 Hall Points. I'll see what materials are suitable."

"no problem!"

Li Xia didn't even blink. The Hall Points were no longer of any use to him. He had simply distributed the previous 600,000 Hall Points to the three little ones.

However, the three little ones didn't use up all of them, only less than 300,000. If he needed Hall Points, he could exchange them with Time-Space Copper Coins or other things. In short, Li Xia wasn't worried about Hall Points at all.

The two chatted casually for a while, and then Li Xia simply said goodbye and left.

Before leaving, Madao looked at the female ghost clinging to Li Xia's back and wrapping her arms around Li Xia's neck:

"I wish she were my PhD student. She's incredibly talented and has far more potential than you, I mean academically!"

What's the use of academic talent if you still get scammed and end up being cheated out of everything?
In her personal space, Li Xia returned to the sofa and took a nap. After the three little ones came back, she simply returned to the real world.

Helen, who was lying on the rocking chair in the living room humming a little tune and doing her skincare routine, was surprised and delighted to see the three people suddenly appear in the room.
"Owner!"

The three little ones stood up groggily, and as usual, first cursed the Hall of Light, condemning its inhuman teleportation. Then, Li Xia lifted them up and headed towards the bathroom.

"Helen, just make something simple, nothing too fancy."

"Good host!"

Helen clenched her pinkish-white fists, her eyes shining:
"Master, would you like to take a bath? My database has tons of bath-aid plugins built in~~~"
Helen bathes with her owner!

Li Xia stopped and simply shoved the three little ones into Helen's hands:
"Then you wash them, I'll just order takeout."

Helen stared blankly at the three little ones, but her master's orders were absolute, so she could only look back every few steps, carrying the three little ones with a wronged expression as she walked towards the bathroom.

The light from the phone reflected onto Li Xia's face, and the female ghost's pretty face rested on his shoulder as she curiously looked at the screen.

Li Xia stopped pointing, shifted her gaze slightly to the side, and sighed.

After returning to the mortal world and breaking free from the rules of the palace, she was now only visible to himself. As for what to do with her, he hadn't figured it out yet. Even if he scattered her, she could reassemble. Moreover, she seemed to have done nothing, because without absorbing luck, she had no physical form, and without a physical form, she couldn't do anything. Apart from constantly clinging to him, she seemed to have done nothing at all.

Oh well, let her be. Anyway, she can pick them in 7 days.

Li Xia turned her gaze away from the glowing screen of her phone, casually ordered a generous portion of Sichuan cuisine, and then swiped her finger to find Director Zhang in her contacts.

As the beeping sound continued for the third time, Director Zhang's somewhat excited voice came through the phone:

"Mr. Li, you were looking for me?"

"Well, I'd like to ask you to contact Jinling University and find a few professors to teach me for a few days." "No problem!"

Director Zhang on the other end of the phone agreed with absolute certainty, almost to the point of making a solemn pledge.

What kind of professor do you need?

"Mathematics, classical mechanics, electromagnetism!"

Having experienced being ruthlessly crushed by knowledge in Madao's courtyard, Li Xia's desire to learn became even more urgent. The key is that knowledge may not seem to form power, but knowledge can amplify power.

Putting everything else aside, if Li Xia could understand the spatial configuration and figure out the spatial energy resonance, he could analyze the operating principle of the Flying Thunder God.

He can then specifically improve his teleportation ability, but knowledge is a long-term process that requires time and effort, and cannot produce immediate results.

"Mathematics, classical mechanics, electromagnetism. Okay, I've got it. Sir, may I ask what the purpose of hiring these teachers is?"

Director Zhang spoke quickly, afraid of causing a misunderstanding:
"The main thing is to understand the purpose so that we can make more targeted arrangements. Otherwise, if it doesn't meet your expectations, wouldn't that waste your time?"

That makes a lot of sense!

If a research-oriented person comes along, it's like trying to boil dumplings in a teapot—the pot is full of stuff, but the contents just won't come out.

"Teaching must be of high quality!"

"Understood. Who is it for? What's the age group? Are there any specific needs?"

While taking notes, Director Zhang was also puzzled. They had already thoroughly investigated Xian 01's social and family relationships. He was a single son for three generations, basically a flawless case, which was why they felt so uneasy.

If you had a close relative, you would have already made an example of them; even influencing them in some way would be beneficial.

It's not that we need to be able to do anything, the key is to prevent him from doing anything!
“Teach me, as well as the little dragon and the little cat beside me.”

Director Zhang was taken aback, but his years of experience allowed him to respond with lightning speed:

"Received. You can go to Jinling University anytime tomorrow; I'll make all the arrangements!"

"Okay, thanks."

Li Xia was about to hang up the phone when she suddenly heard a voice on the other end:
"Sir, although I would love to tell you the good news in person, I think I should at least give you a brief report over the phone."

Director Zhang took a deep breath, suppressing his excitement:
"The medicine you provided has been successfully replicated in the laboratory with some of its effects, based on our research, although it is still far from being a complete replica."

But even such a medication has brought almost miraculous healing effects to patients with mild symptoms and neurological issues!
On behalf of 1.4 billion people in China, thank you!
Thanks! "

Li Xia put down her phone, looked at the darkened screen, and a slight smile appeared on her lips.

Good.

Li Xia opened her eyes, and the faint morning light shone into the bedroom through the gap in the curtains.

He assessed how crowded the bed was. Xiaolong, Heitan, and Xiaotian all looked humanoid here, but they still stuck to their old habits and insisted on squeezing in with Li Xia.

Besides the three of them, Li Xia sensed something else, and his eyes glanced to his side.

Helen's voluptuous, long legs were pressed against her body. She was only wearing a silk camisole, and her long, waterfall-like hair cascaded down her back. Her perfectly shaped face, even in a sleeping state, was stunningly beautiful, and she was still hugging her own arms.

On the other side, it was occupied by a female ghost. No, what are you sleeping like a female ghost?

Li Xia put on her clothes. At this moment, the city was not yet fully awake. The sun had only peeked out, but the steaming aroma from the breakfast stalls was already spreading to the vicinity.

There were far fewer cars on the road, and the swishing sound of brooms sweeping the ground mingled with the sounds of passing vehicles, creating a percussion effect reminiscent of life itself.

Li Xia jogged slowly to the nearby park. In the modern world, exercise was no longer of much use, but once a habit was formed, it was hard to break.

This activity was already relaxing. He first stood in a stance for a while, and then practiced some boxing by the lake, which drew praise from the retired old men taking a walk around him, even though they didn't understand what a fourth-order apostle was.

However, one can still discern a certain charm in the movements and the air of a master.

Several elderly men even came over to chat, expressing their desire to learn with her. They said the tuition was negotiable, but Li Xia politely declined each time. The old men could only leave regretfully, but they didn't forget to leave their numbers and a green bubble as they left.

By the time she got home, it was already broad daylight, and the small three-bedroom apartment was bustling with activity. Helen, wearing only an apron over her silk slip dress, was making breakfast in the kitchen. When she saw Li Xia, she smoothed the hair behind her ear, smiled gently, and set the breakfast on the table.

Li Xia picked up her chopsticks and her first words stunned the three little ones.

"Let's go to school after we finish eating!"

Huh? Going to school?!
