Chapter 720: Secret Path
Chapter 720: Chapter 720: Secret Path
Just an hour.
After a thorough discussion on the existing experimental equipment and research projects with Swollen Doctor and walking around Manor Laboratory Area with West, they had found a common topic.
In their discussion, they slowly returned to the core laboratory, completely forgetting the existence of Han Dong, the ‘big boss’.
Seeing this, Han Dong was no longer worried about any ‘two tigers can’t live on the same mountain’ situation.
“Doctor, please provide me with some recent research reports, I will study them when I go back.
If there are any new experimental directions or any difficulties that you want to overcome, please try as much as possible… In about a year’s time, the [Big Expedition] will officially start.
...
I need a large number of special troops to go on an expedition with me.
Apart from that, I will also try to communicate deeply with the gold master to introduce some steam technologies, such as prosthetics, power cores, or automation devices.
After all, this world has completely abandoned the technological line of [electricity], and has now reached a higher technological level through [steam].
In a while, I’ll come back to talk more with you.”
The first thing Han Dong did after including West on this visit to the mansion was to meet with Swollen Doctor, because Han Dong firmly believes ‘science and technology are the primary productive forces’, and he can’t delay even for a moment.
At this time.
Professor West, who is inside the glass jar, also gives a positive response to the laboratory:
“Apart from the lack of [electric energy] here, everything else is very interesting.
However, my brain is far from reaching the standard of a computer.
It takes a lot of time to solely rely on human brain calculation and there will be distractions.
If your world is mainly based on steam technology, then the “Differential engine” may have reached the level of a transistor computer, or even higher.
If there’s an opportunity, bring a few super-sized computers over.”
“Mmm, feel free to make any requests…”
In the remaining few hours, Han Dong, Swollen Doctor, and West had a relatively superficial scientific research discussion and have basically established a research direction.
The final direction of the research still needs to be decided after Han Dong meets with the gold master.
Like that.
After leaving West for good, Han Dong returns to Holy City on his own.
The time of scientific research discussion passes really quickly, and it was already late at night when he returned to Holy City.
Quickly moving along the familiar Dark Moon road, passing by the tall towers and turning into Dead Water Marsh… Mia’s little tree house is in there.
Several hours ago, Mia had already been waiting by the window.
Although she was often lied to by Han Dong before, she still believed that her loved one would not lie to her… moreover, Mia was very excited about the gift that Han Dong was bringing back for her.
“The ‘True Fate’ is full of dangers, and Nicholas even deliberately brought a gift for me from Fate Space. Could it be that he really…”
Just as Mia fell into her own fantasy.
A figure quickly stepped on to the drawbridge between the marshes. Before Mia could react, the door of the wooden house was pushed open.
“Mia, let’s go.”
“Ah… where to? Didn’t you say we were staying in the tree house?”
About half of Mia’s brain was filled with imaginary scenes of the two of them entwining in the tree house.
“I just said to wait for me in the tree house. I didn’t say we would stay here all night.
Let’s go to Witch Academy… I have a special gift for you!”
“Okay.”
While the two were quickly jumping through the crooked trees in the marshes.
Han Dong can clearly feel Mia’s changes… she has become much faster.
Unintentionally, Mia had already pulled a fifty-meter distance from him.
“My dear, do you want me to wait for you?”
As Mia slowed down, trying to wait for Han Dong, who seemed to be lagging behind in her memory.
An almost invisible tentacle mixed with a void attribute and transparency in the night rapidly shot out, touching the tree branch next to Mia…
Whoosh~
Han Dong appeared beside her.
“Spatial… movement?” Han Dong’s newly showcased ability left Mia stunned.
Speed and spatial movement are two different concepts, just like things on different levels.
Han Dong complimented her, “Mia, your speed seems to have increased a lot… The full potential of a ‘Insect Changer’ seems to have given you a significant boost.”
“What’s the use of being faster, it’s nothing compared to your ability… Can you let me experience what short-distance spatial movement feels like?”
Before Han Dong could respond.
Mia jumped onto his back, her thin black stockings wrapped around Han Dong’s waist, holding him tightly.
It must be said, Mia’s body was really light, weighing only around seventy kilograms, probably related to her status as an insect transformer.
Whoosh!
A series of transparent tentacles shot out.
Touching and transferring.
There was no need to take a boat to the center of the marsh.
With the help of the tentacles’ reach, the central island hundreds of meters away was reached… They came directly in front of the Witch Academy.
At the moment, there was a group of mysterious department students who were specializing in Witch Studies gathered in the academy, listening to Witch Kaylonia’s class. They each had to perform witchcraft in front of the witch, only allowed to leave after meeting the required standard.
Sister Mia~ Sister Mia~
In the eyes of these Apprentice Knights, Mia, who had won the top ten in the last knight competition as a witch, was their role model… each of them respectfully called out as they left the academy.
However.
Whenever the gaze of these young juniors shifted towards Han Dong, they would immediately feel a murderous intent from Mia.
Even if these apprentice witches recognized Han Dong’s identity, they could only bow their heads and leave quickly.
At this moment, the voice of the witch suddenly came, “Mia, what are you doing here? Is there nothing wrong with the Doomsday Knight Brigade …Hmm? This young man is here too.”
“Greetings, Mrs. Kaylonia.” Han Dong bowed respectfully, greeting the witch in her black satin robe.
“Achieving two talent points at once, Black White has indeed recruited a good student… Hmm.
What brings you here? The Great Plague Chief is not here today, if there’s nothing, you better leave.”
“Teacher, Nicholas he…”
Mia was about to explain something, but was immediately stopped by Han Dong extending his hand, and he directly stated his purpose.
“In my journey of fate, I accidentally received an ancient witchcraft originating from a small island in Northern Europe, which I believe could greatly benefit Mia… However, this witchcraft has a certain backlash effect on the individual.
Therefore, I intend to have you look at it first, to see if this witchcraft is suitable for Mia to use.”
“Small island in Northern Europe? Let me see.”
With the witch’s permission.
Han Dong looked at the witch directly through his demonic eye, conveying a section of ancient witchcraft knowledge from Miss Jane.
“Tri-Witch Mystery Teaching… Secret Path… Where did you get this!?
It’s impossible, how could you bring this high-level Secret Text of Witchcraft out of the Fate Space, the material transfer between worlds requires a ‘price’ – that is, Fate Points.
These witchcraft glyphs, although far from decoding the route to the Secret Country, are enough to serve as a gateway.”
The witch widened her eyes, unable to believe that Han Dong could bring out such high-value witchcraft glyphs, and even planned to give them to Mia.
What do you think?
