Chapter 322 CD
Sheshou Town was renamed Sheshou County.
This is what happened in March of the year 4425 of the Storm Calendar, and Sheshou County was still building a city wall on the outskirts of the county.
The city wall is mixed with spiritual gold materials and spiritual beast spiritual materials, and can resist attacks by spiritual beasts below level 4.
And these city walls will also be equipped with 4-ring light shields and 4-ring lightsabers developed by Duke Sage Mage Tower and produced by the Giant of Light Group in the future. This is the result of Lidman's team's efforts to research lightsaber technology, and it is also the result of Duke's help with calculations based on Xiaoyi's supercomputer.
In the era without supercomputers, it would be difficult for even an arcane instructor to find the most suitable one from countless sequences.
Therefore, the Leadman lightsaber team is far ahead in the development and application of lightsaber technology.
Now, it is the first to develop 4-ring lightsaber technology.
Lightsaber technology is just a general term. This technology can create any shape. Among them, the 4-ring light shield is the best city defense weapon. If the city wall can be covered with 4-ring light shield, it will be difficult for land beasts to break through the city wall defense. .
Coupled with the attack power of a 4-ring lightsaber, it can be said that the invasion of spiritual beasts will hardly cause harm.
However, before building the city wall, the Black Snake family had pruned the central area of the county, in front of the original Duke's former residence on Second Vertical Street, into a small square.
In the center of the square, an eleven-meter-high full-length statue of Duke was erected.
The whole body is made of a kind of spiritual gold called orichalcum. The color of this orichalcum is somewhat dark, but it works very well when used on human statues, giving it a special thick texture.
"From now on, this will be Duke Square, the most important cultural activity center in Sheshou County." Mulander Black Snake put his hands on his back and looked up at the newly completed Duke orichalcopper statue, "4 rings of earth arcane mage, 4 rings of dragon Knight, 3-ring Great Elf Envoy, 11 rings in total, corresponding to a height of 11 meters, perfect!"
“It is indeed perfect.” Muhans Black Snake was wearing a large cloak, and his momentum had already surpassed Mulander Black Snake.
Nothing else.
Now Muhans Black Snake has obtained a batch of beast blood pills in advance through his daughter, so that his second-level fantasy beast-the flaming python can swallow it.
This phantom beast named Fire King has managed to live up to its expectations, winning a glimmer of hope and evolving into a level 3 high-level phantom beast.
In other words, Muhans Black Snake is now a third-level advanced fantasy beast knight, and the most powerful person in the entire Black Snake family. The title of Baron Black Snake was firmly placed on his head, and his identity as the family patriarch was further consolidated, with the right to speak surpassing that of the high priest Mulander Black Snake.
“Muhans.” Mulander Black Snake suddenly sighed.
“Second uncle, please speak.”
"I plan to completely retire and plant flowers and fish. From now on, I will leave it to you to take full control of the path the Black Snake family will take."
If it were in the past, Muhans Black Snake would not have the confidence to be able to shoulder the family's future.
But now as a high-level Phantom Beast Knight with two 3-ring lightsabers on his waist, Muhans Black Snake has enough confidence to face all challenges.
He nodded calmly: "That's fine. Second uncle, you have worked hard for the family all your life, and now it's time to enjoy it."
"Before I leave, I still have to give you a few words, so that you don't feel annoyed."
“Second uncle, please tell me.”
"Our Black Snake family can establish a foothold in the Black Dragon River and develop vigorously. The Black Snake descendants are becoming more and more prosperous and developed. The root of all this comes from the fact that we were the first to embrace the prophet's lap, and we were able to embrace him. The tightest.”
"I know."
“You will be the master of the family from now on. I don’t care how you want to plan the family, but you must not forget to hug the prophet’s lap!”
Muhans Black Snake nodded with deep understanding and replied: "Second uncle, don't worry, I will cling to Prophet Duke's lap with a vassal attitude. From now on, the Black Snake family will give priority to the interests of Prophet Duke. Even family interests must come second.”
"It's good that you have this understanding." Mulander Black Snake took a souvenir glance at the greatly changed county town and left slowly, "Hold the prophet's thigh tightly, the Black Snake family will be prosperous for at least three years. One hundred years, no, four hundred years!”
8The theoretical lifespan of the Arcane Master of the Ring of Light is approximately four hundred and fifty years.
From Mulander Black Snake's point of view, it is inevitable that Duke will be promoted to the 8th Ring of Radiant Moon Arcane Instructor.
Rather than letting Muhans Black Snake see him off, Mulander Black Snake took two old followers and walked alone through the streets of the county town towards the Black Snake Manor.
On the street, a group of knights riding tall horses passed through the street in an orderly manner.
In response to Cuihai City's security operations in the past few years, the Black Snake family also made great efforts to reorganize the security knights and patrol knights. These knights not only have good discipline, but also do no harm to the people, and have become a sight on the streets.
Each knight has a lightsaber that looks like a flashlight on his waist.
In fact, in Mulander Black Snake's view, this era should not be called the era of boiling beast blood, but the era of lightsabers.
This small lightsaber is an important factor that really changes the knight's status. With the lightsaber, the knight has the capital to compete with arcane mages of the same level. Using lightsabers to break arcane spells has become a compulsory course for knights.
Unfortunately, there are only three levels of handheld lightsabers: 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. A 4th-level lightsaber is no longer something that anyone can carry.
Even a three-ring lightsaber is as thick as a water bottle and requires a knight to hold it with both hands.
Suddenly.
The captain of the knight team recognized Mulander Black Snake strolling along the street, and immediately led the team to dismount and salute: "High Priest."
“Well, I’m busy with you, so don’t worry about me.” Mulander Black Snake waved his hand and quickly disappeared into the crowd on the street.
The older he gets, the less he enjoys being surrounded by people. Instead, he likes to mingle among ordinary people and enjoy the quietness that ordinary people have.
"Biles joins hands with Zolde to once again contribute to screen love. "Shen Jiao Holiday" is shocking and will have its world premiere on March 11!" A brand new huge poster was posted in front of the gate of the Phantom Opera House. A man and woman ride on a bicycle.
The background is clearly Shenjiao City.
There is no doubt that this is a phantom blockbuster produced by DreamWorks. Perhaps it was influenced by Duke. Most of the phantom movies shot by DreamWorks like to set the story background in two cities in the Black River. Shen Jiao City and Cuihai City.
Through the continuous promotion of DreamWorks Fantasy films, Shenjiao City and Cuihai City may not be as charming as the Holy City of Aofa, but they are still two entertainment cities.
I don’t know how many people want to come here to pursue their dreams.
Chasing the dream of the increasingly prosperous entertainment industry and the dream of building a new city in Cuihai City. In short, the increasing number of immigrants is the best proof.
By the way, Sheshou County also benefited, with its population exceeding 200,000.
"Sir, do you want to go in and see the Phantom?" The attendant saw Mulander Black Snake's gaze lingering on the Phantom poster for a long time and couldn't help but ask.
Mulander Black Snake shook his head and said, "I remember Zolde, the phantom star who came out of Sheshou County, right?"
"Yes." A follower said, "I have met his parents, who lived in the original No. 1 Heng Street. But now they have moved to Shenjiao City."
DreamWorks Pictures, undoubtedly, has made a large number of actors in Black Dragon River popular.
“Write it down for me, and invite Zolde to Black Snake Manor as a guest and have dinner together when you have time.” Mulander Black Snake ordered.
He then continued walking along the street, but instead of returning to Black Snake Manor, he came to the rail platform in the north of the city.
The whirring rail train, carrying more than a dozen carriages of goods, stopped at the platform. A large group of workers immediately stepped forward to unload the goods. On the other track, the passenger train also stopped. A group of passengers got off and a group of passengers got on, in an orderly manner.
The emergence of rail trains has completely changed the way people travel.
The black centipede cars and black beetle cars in the past have gradually become short-distance means of transportation and no longer travel between cities. Even airships were once affected by rail trains. After all, airships have no advantage in terms of speed.
There is a large screen on the platform, which is an outdoor light camera and is playing the local Heijiaohe light television program.
Some passengers waiting for the train were watching the program with their heads raised.
Not far away there is a light phone booth, and several passengers are queuing up to insert their cards and make light phone calls to report to their families that they are safe.
"What a huge change." Mulander Black Snake put his hands behind his back and sighed with emotion. "In just a few years, it seems that an entire era has spanned."
The follower echoed and said: "Sir, we have really crossed an era. When we were young, we were originally in the era of great arcana. Now, the Fourth Ring Prophet, the great master, has led us into the era of cave spirituality."
Another follower also smiled and sighed: "Sometimes Sheshou County changes so much and so fast that I feel like I am in a dream."
Mulander Black Snake nodded and said: "It seems that the biggest change is brought about by the Ring of Light. The Prophet uses light to connect the entire world. Those of us who live in the south and the north now live together In a small town!”
"Yes, my grandson has been promoted by the master and is studying at the Knight Monastery in Cuihai City. I miss him. I can see my grandson just by chatting!"
“Isn’t it true? When I go shopping with you every day, I like to watch the optical system. I can see news in other fields. It’s amazing.”
“So, I must be grateful to the prophet.” Mulande Black Snake clasped his hands together and bowed in the direction of Cuihai City.
The two followers quickly followed suit, clasped their hands together and bowed in the air, saying, "Thank you, Lord Prophet!"
In the past, people called Duke the same as they called other arcane mages, and they liked to call him Master Prophet.
But as Duke's achievements have grown, he has become a living sage, even surpassing Abbotts to become the greatest sage.
Many people gradually called Duke the prophet.
After paying homage to Duke, Mulander Black Snake took two old followers and walked around the county town like a lion patrolling its territory, and then returned to Black Snake Manor to rest.
…
the other side.
The breeze of early spring blew by, and among the canopies of the ancestor of the oak tree, dark brown acorns looked like naughty children, playing hide and seek with the air.
The acorns bloomed last fall, and by this spring, in half a year, these acorns will finally mature.
Duke picked an acorn and took it into the tree house to study it carefully. When the hand of the arcane weapon was pierced into it, all the information was clear at a glance.
“It’s not mature yet, the energy hasn’t been born yet.” Duke dropped the acorn on the table.
He has been waiting for the acorns to mature and researching the factors that can give the acorn man power. He temporarily calls this power the power of woodification.
Just like in his spiritual sea, he understood the mystery of the ancestor of the oak tree and gained the power of acorn and wood transformation.
In other words, Duke himself has the power to turn into wood, but this power is obtained through the mysterious vision of the Tree King. It is elusive and difficult to find and difficult to study directly.
"We have to wait a few more days." Duke pushed open the door, returned to Duke's Sage Mage Tower, and walked into his own exclusive laboratory.
Today's Duke Sage Mage Tower is full of talents.
There are more than twenty professors at the level of Huanao Mage. They lead different research groups and study day and night. There are even four senior professors at the level of fourth-level earth arcane mage, not counting Suktala.
These four arcane earth mages have all recently joined the Duke Sage Mage Tower.
Hence. There are many Da'ao mages who come to Duke Sage Mage Tower for academic visits, but there are very few who are willing to stay and lead the research team to do research.
However, as more and more Arcane Mages stow away on the Lingxi Road, Arcane Mages gradually become worthless—some Arcane Mages even proposed to remove stowaways from the Arcane Mages class and establish a new class separately.
For example, it is called Lingxi Arcana Mage.
In short, some of the arcane mages who smuggled in could not even maintain their own mage towers, so they were naturally willing to work for others.
The four arcane earth mages who stayed in the Duke Sage Mage Tower all came from the Lingxi Road by sneaking there.
But even stowaways, even if they were devalued as psychic mages, their strength could not be underestimated, so Duke added the title of senior professor on top of professors.
The front foot has just entered the door.
Assistant Ibuprofen walked in with a pile of information: "Sir, this is the backup information collected from various research groups today."
“Put it down.” Duke waved his hand casually, and the Arcane Weapon Hand and Arcane Weapon Eye materialized.
Then the hands of the arcana turned over the data, and the eyes of the arcana looked at the data. They quickly expanded the database for Xiaoyi, and Xiaoyi summarized and organized it.
Duke himself has no intention of wasting time on reading these materials. After all, they are all spiritual and arcane contents with no freshness.
For example, the Ring of Phantasmal Beasts team led by Paliska, the Lightsaber team led by Lidman, the Ring of Light team led by Kairich Gray Deer, and others such as the film and television team, the Branded Ring team, and the Consonance Team. Ring team and more.
These are all topics pioneered by Duke. No matter how hard you study them, you won't be able to come up with many new tricks.
"Sir, I have to take a few days off. My brother is getting married soon, and I have to go over and help." Ibuprofen said suddenly.
Duke was surprised: "That boy Bullock, are you going to get married so soon?"
It is said to be that boy. In fact, the Bullock siblings are about the same age as Duke. They are both twenty-nine years old now.
"My brother is so dull. If a female arcane mage can fall in love with him, he has to get married and **** quickly." Ibuprofen joked, "Lest the other party regrets it later. My brother is getting older and older, and there is no female arcana mage." The mage can take a liking to him."
“You’re only twenty-nine years old, so old.” Duke said.
Ibuprofen sighed: "For you, sir, of course you are not old. Sooner or later you will be able to ascend to the stars and your lifespan will be infinite. But for us ordinary arcane mages, that is not necessarily the case. I have not been promoted to the second level yet. Woolen cloth."
Promoted to Arcane Mage at the age of twenty-two, and now at twenty-nine, the Ibuprofen brothers and sisters have stayed in the first ring for seven years.
Duke smiled and said: "Don't feel sorry for yourself, it's only been seven years. I remember that I broke the record of being promoted to the second level Arcane Mage the fastest. The previous holder took six years and seven months... It usually takes ten years. Just advance to level 2."
The promotion time of arcane mage is actually not taken seriously.
Even if countless years are wasted at each level, as long as you can continue to expand your understanding of spiritual arcana, there is hope for advancement.
The reason why Duke's previous record-breaking was so sensational was entirely because he raised the record to an incredible level.
It takes two and a half years to advance to the second level, another three years to the third level, and another four years to the fourth level.
It adds up to less than ten years.
At the same time, arcane mages were still at level 1, but he had cleared away the fog of spiritual arcane magic and became a level 4 earth arcane mage.
Therefore, the record caused a sensation because Duke broke the record crazily, not because Duke broke the record.
“Oops.” Ibuprofen smiled sarcastically, “I’ve been following you, sir, for so long that I forgot that your records can’t be used as a reference.”
"Okay, I've approved your leave. Go and help your brother prepare for the wedding. Oh, by the way, you go find Pheasant Yu yourself and choose a gift from the castle's warehouse as a congratulatory gift from me to your brother." Duke had no plans to go to the wedding.
With his current status, there is really no wedding that he can attend—except for himself.
Send away the ibuprofen.
Duke began to arrange his own new experiment. This experiment should be regarded as another reference to earth technology.
"CD!"
Duke started operating on the test bench, using the sensitive operation ability given by the arcane hand to process this special piece of spiritual material.
It is somewhat similar to the card materials required for making spiritual cards, but optical signals can be stored in it by changing the medium.
Duke has his own exclusive Phantom film screening room. Every time a new Phantom masterpiece is released, he will have someone bring a Phantom card to show it and enjoy it. However, after years of development, the phantom card roll is still very large and has poor storage effect.
Some longer phantom films with higher-definition drawings may even require several phantom cartridges to be shared together.
So he thought of the compact disc on Earth.
I want to use the spiritual arcane method to copy the disc in the Seven Towers Federation to store information more conveniently.
In fact, there is no need for Duke to conduct research himself. He only needs to provide an idea and then leave it to the experimental team to overcome it. But Duke had nothing to do now. He happened to be waiting for the acorns to mature, so he took action on his own.
A few days later.
The acorn is about to mature, and Duke has made great progress in conquering optical disc technology.
“Xiaoyi, have you noticed that optical disc technology actually has great potential?” Duke was researching and making semi-finished optical discs.
The optical disc on the earth uses lasers with different reflectivities in different media to burn pits with different reflectivities, thereby reading the signals of 0 and 1, and then converting these 0 and 1 signals into real information through equipment.
But Duke couldn't copy it, for the simple reason that there was no equipment to read the so-called 0 and 1 signals.
However, his solution is also very simple. He directly stores the information in a ring structure and then burns it on the spiritual material.
Countless small ring structures are stacked on top of each other to store countless amounts of information.
The more troublesome thing is that ensuring the stability and readability of these ring structures at the same time requires very high requirements for the material itself and the burning technology.
“Master, the algorithm of the disc ring structure can be further optimized to improve the information storage capacity of the ring structure.” Xiaoyi has continuously optimized the storage effect of the ring structure through calculations and developed a complete recording technology.
Next, as long as the materials are in place, optical disc technology will be ready.
Alchemy.
Duke controlled the hand of the arcane weapon and repeatedly alchemized the spiritual materials. Finally, one day at the end of March, he obtained the extremely flexible card material he wanted.
The recording equipment is also ready. A modified Lingka imprinting instrument, with the help of the increasingly developed imprinting ring and the psionic stance technology of the steady-state ring level instrument, can convert optical images and sounds. Integrate into ring structure.
“Let’s call it a disc burner.” Duke gave it a random name.
L.
The disc burner started working, and the ring-shaped disc continued to record images and sounds in the psychic position.
The burning speed is not very fast.
About ten minutes later, "Shen Jiao Holiday", which was released recently, was burned to the disc, using about one-tenth of the capacity of the ring structure.
"Hmm, not bad, not bad!" Duke was very satisfied with this. ""Holiday" is a blockbuster released by DreamWorks. The idea came from "Roman Holiday" I provided. The scenes are exquisite and grand, and it requires four Phantom cards. It can only be accommodated by the volume!”
It can be seen from this that the storage capacity of the optical disc is much greater than that of the phantom card.
And this is still the first generation of optical discs. With continuous optimization in the future, the storage effect of optical discs will be even more terrifying.
After burning a disc, Duke quickly took out the disc and put in another instrument he had modified himself - a disc projector.
Just use an ordinary phantom card reel projector with slight modifications to read the signal stored in the optical disc.
As the disc projector is started, a piece of beautiful music sounds, and the DreamWorks logo animation slowly unfolds.
The picture is clear and stable, no worse than the effect of the Phantom card.
"Very good!" Duke is quite satisfied with this. The fact is that when the knowledge given to him by the earth collides with the spiritual arcane system, wonderful sparks can be produced. In addition to the Ring of Consonance and the Ring of Phantom Beasts, many of his Inventions are like this.
Click your fingers.
Duke started calling: "Ibuprofen."
"Sir." Another assistant walked in. It was not Ibuprofen, but a female spiritual apprentice from the assistant team. "The director of Ibuprofen has taken leave and has not come back yet."
“Yes, her brother is getting married.” Duke remembered.
The main reason is that his development of the optical disc has progressed so fast that only a few days have passed and Bullock's wedding has not even been held yet.
After thinking about it, he ordered: "Go and call Winona Yingzhu over."
"Yes, sir."
A moment later, Winona Yingzhu, wearing a floral dress, walked in with brisk steps like a dancing butterfly.
“Teacher, are you looking for me?”
“Tomorrow, April 1st, you will hold an academic conference for me to broadcast the optical disc technology I invented live.”
Duke does not plan to live broadcast the academic conference in person. In his view, the CD technology is indeed good, but it is nothing more than that, and it is not worthy of being a prophet.
In order to maintain the style of the Four-ring Prophet and Six-Sage, in the future he will only hold press conferences in person for ring-level technologies, or technologies close to the ring-level.
“Ah, me?” Winona Yingzhu exclaimed.
Then he asked with surprise and trepidation: "Instructor, can I do it? I'm afraid I'm not familiar with CD technology and I might make mistakes."
"It doesn't matter, there is still time, I will explain the disc technology to you carefully." Duke motioned Winona Yingzhu to sit down, "I thought about it, don't you intend to be my assistant? That's just right, just Be my academic assistant and publish academic papers for me from now on."
With his status and status, he is exposed to high-end spiritual and arcane content, and it is difficult for ordinary people to be qualified for the role of assistant.
At present, I only have one arcane mage assistant, Ibuprofen, which is obviously not enough. I might as well hire Winona Yingzhu as an assistant. In addition, he also plans to hire Agnes Ice Crown as an assistant to handle knightly matters for him.
In the future, we will recruit an arcane mage with dual cultivation of spirit sea and air sea to handle matters related to the way of elves for him.
In short.
Other prophets, stars, and even great arcane mages help run errands, and Duke is no exception. It is necessary to form a team of assistants composed of arcane mages.
After listening to this, Winona Yingzhu thought carefully and nodded solemnly: "Tutor, don't worry, I will do a good job as an academic assistant and I won't let you down!"
