Chapter 249 Abnormal Biology Research Department
"It's so troublesome..."
Mu You sighed, not only need a specific time, but also climb the stairs in a circular spiral, like some mysterious and evil ritual.
[Ms. Jing Mo raised the cardboard again and told you some details to pay attention to: "The next full moon night in the astral world will start on this Thursday night, but only when the moonlight is the strongest, that is, Thursday From 11:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m. on Friday, the Silent Beasts will leave to go to the rooftop to pray for the moon, so you only have two hours to act."]
["In addition, after entering the silent library, the search spell can only be used once. The search spell is a large spell, and continuous use will cause the magic power on the spot to fluctuate. When you use it for the second time, the fluctuating magic power will definitely be suppressed by the silent beast on the roof. Be aware...don't be greedy!"]
In the text, the words "don't be greedy" are specially used in emphasized fonts.
Mu You wondered if this was the taboo she committed at the beginning, the excessive thirst for knowledge made her greedy in the library, and she searched for multiple questions at once, which led to her being turned into a ghost by the silent beast.
After answering the questions, Jing Mo Niang stopped caring about Mu You and started reading the new book.
And Mu You got the information about the library, and did not leave in a hurry.
Stayed in the bookstore for a while, and after midnight, I immediately took a new Harry Potter book and sent it into the game again.
【A new day is coming, Jing Mo Niang gladly accepted the new book you presented, and asked you what else you need? 】
According to the usual three options, this time Muyou chose tutoring magic.
【There are three kinds of magic you are learning now, which magic do you want to receive tutoring? 】
Of the three spells that he just learned during the day, Mu You chose the lowest progress and the 'Silence Curse' that will be used soon.
【Jing Mo Niang didn't surprise you with your choice, and let you sit across from the desk. She used her wand to continuously release silent spells, demonstrating and breaking down the details of the spell for you. As you continue to watch the demo, your spell learning progress begins to slowly increase. 】
【Studying the silent spell, it is expected to end in two hours...】
Jing Mo's desk seems to be a professional magic teaching desk.
Next, Muyou will no longer be able to operate the game, and the late-night private lesson of the glasses girl lasts for two hours.
Mu You hung up on the game, went out to complete the update task, then went home and entered the lock cylinder space, came to the magic fireplace, and began to refine the potion.
After many days of accumulation, there are not many first-order root potions that he has not met Vivienne's requirements, and only the last five are left: small sobriety potion, small healing potion, cleaning potion, hair erecting potion, and detox potion.
These five kinds of potions are not complicated, especially in the case of his recent batch refining of evolution potions, his level of refining medicines has already surpassed the first-level potion master by a lot, and the last five kinds of potions are going to be given to everyone today. Finish.
Prepare all the materials, the Fool's Barrier is opened, and Mu You starts repeated reincarnation practice.
The final process was also relatively smooth. Except for the slightly complicated cleaning agent, which took 452 times, the other four were used less than 300 times, and successfully achieved the achievement of 100 consecutive times without mistakes.
So far, he has officially reached the first-order potion master under Vivienne's standard.
As for his current level, how many potions is he in the astral world? This depends on the specific place.
If it is in some small countries and small cities, where the standards for potion masters are not strict, and the potion of a certain level can be refined with a success rate of more than 70%, it is a potion master of a certain level. According to this standard, Mu You is now an official Tier 4 Potion Master.
The standards of the Wizarding Association are much stricter. At each level, at least five kinds of root potions must be steadily refined in order to obtain the title of Potion Master of the corresponding level.
Much like Mu You can only refine a fourth-order potion, but he has never learned any of the second- and third-order potions. He can't even participate in the assessment of the second-tier potion master, and he still belongs to the first-tier potion master. But psychologically, others will admit that you already have the strength of a fourth-order potion master.
Of course, cases like Mu You's partial subjects are very rare, because the process of advanced potion masters is a process of burning materials, and the materials of fourth-level potions are much more precious than low-level materials.
General potion masters start from refining low-level potions. Only when they have mastered all the first-, second-, and third-level potions, and their strength has reached a sufficient level, can they dare to try the refining of mid-level potions.
No one can do it like Mu You. With the support of time pocket watch, he can skip the low-level potions and directly brush up the proficiency of high-level potions regardless of material consumption.
"The next step is the second-order potion..."
Mu You opened Vivian's potion formula book, and checked the list of second-order potions.
The second-order root potions are a little less than the first-order potions, only thirteen kinds, and most of them have mediocre effects. There are many overlaps with the first-order potions in terms of function, but they have become enhanced versions.
According to the whole article, there are only two potions with special effects: veritaserum and love potion.
Teritaserum, as the name suggests, is a potion that makes people confess the truth after taking it. The specific effect is 'during the duration of the potion, the user cannot tell lies'.
But this can only ensure that what the user said is true, but it cannot force the other party to say something, so the real purpose of this potion is to prove that what someone said is true, not for interrogation and stealing secrets.
Love Potion is better understood, the famous love potion, but unfortunately Love Potion cannot bring true love, but only makes the person who takes the potion have a strong attachment to the person who gave him the potion. Once the effect of the drug wears off, all unreal emotions will disappear.
Mu You checked the materials at hand, compared the formulas of the thirteen second-order potions, found the gaps in the materials, made a list, and passed it to Jiuyou through the forum.
At two o'clock in the morning, Jing Mo Niang's tutoring session ended on time.
【Under the teaching of Jing Mo Niang, the learning progress of your 'Silent Silent Curse' has increased by 20%. The current rate is 57.5%. 】
"20%?"
Mu You was taken aback. It just so happened to be an integer?
Could it be that...Jing Mo Niang's make-up lessons are fixed by a certain percentage? Mu You immediately thought of this possibility, clicked on the text of the bookstore, and tried to ask this question.
【Jing Mo Niang tells you that she can only tutor the spells you have already started to learn. For low-, middle- and high-level magic with talents of 6 points and above, the progress will be fixed by 20%, 15%, and 10% respectively. The progress of low, middle and high-level magic below talent 6 will be increased by 10%, 5%, and 1% respectively. 】
Sure enough, it is a fixed ratio!
In this way, the value of Jing Mo Niang's one-on-one private training is much higher, especially for middle and high-level magic.
A high-level spell with a 6-point talent needs 59.9 hours in the academy, that is, 30 classes to learn. Even if it is calculated as one class per day, it will take 600 years of life and one month.
But with Jing Mo Niang, this kind of magic only needs to take one class in the academy to learn the beginning, and the rest will come to the glasses girl for tutoring, 10% of the progress every day, and it only takes ten days to learn it. Save the high tuition fees and save a lot of time.
The jack-o-lantern really found him a god-level NPC that day!
After finishing the game, Mu You sent the character to the Misty Mountain. After refining the evolution potion for a while, he went offline to rest.
The next morning at six o'clock, Mu You got up on time.
However, he did not let the game characters go to the spell class. Today the class needs to be suspended for a day, because he wants to take the animals to the capital for quarantine.
After tidying up and confirming that all the animals in the belt are brought, Mu You walked out of the pet shop and locked the door.
At this time, Lin Xue's car was already waiting for him at the door.
Originally, Mu You planned to go alone, but yesterday Lin Xue said that she had a classmate when she was studying abroad who happened to work in the Capital Academy of Sciences, so she planned to go with her and meet her old classmate by the way.
At nine in the morning, the plane arrived in the capital.
The two left the airport, took a taxi and went straight to the Academy of Sciences.
Yesterday, Mu You asked Zhang Yang. As early as two years ago, when the Game of Fools was just emerging, the National Academy of Sciences created a new department specializing in the study of alien creatures. department.
After two years of development, it has become a very complete department. Now all stores related to magical animals in the country have to go there to obtain approval before opening.
Mu You asked for the address from Zhang Yang, and the two rushed to the address quickly.
I saw a group of buildings surrounded by high walls standing in front of it. There was no signboard marked at the gate, but there were many armed police patrolling nearby, and the gate was strictly guarded by four heavily armed soldiers.
Mu You didn't expect to be able to break into such an important place with his own face, and planned to borrow the relationship of the members of the Bureau of Dissonance.
Mu You held up his mobile phone, and was thinking about who to contact for a recommendation, when he suddenly glanced at the front door, a woman with a short ponytail and a white coat hurried out, looked around, and soon saw Two people across the road.
The woman waved her hand immediately, ran over to the road with a smile, and hugged Lin Xue.
"Xiaoxue, long time no see!" The two hugged, and then chatted as if no one was around on the side of the street.
Mu You took a look and found that this girl was about the same age as Lin Xue. Seeing that the two of them knew each other well, this should be the classmate Lin Xue mentioned. Unexpectedly, she happened to be working in the Different Research Department.
With this connection, he doesn't have to bother to find someone.
Just as I was thinking about it, I listened to the girl's words: "By the way, Xiaoxue, come and work with us too. We are short of manpower here. The dean has urged me several times, asking me to call all my former classmates over to help. You are the best among our group of foreign students, the dean will definitely welcome you when you come!"
Lin Xue shook her head directly when she heard the words: "I already have a job."
"What job? Just quit it?" the girl said naturally.
"This..." Lin Xue looked a little embarrassed, and subconsciously looked at Mu You next to her.
As for the treatment, the government department, the treatment will definitely not be bad, not to mention that with Lin Xue's family background, how can she care about such things as treatment.
"Cough..."
This has already begun to poach people, and Mu You can no longer watch, coughing, showing his presence.
The girl noticed that there was someone standing beside her, looked Mu You up and down, and looked at Lin Xue with some strangeness: "Xiaoxue, who is this?"
"This is my boss, Mu You. Today I accompanied my boss to find you to approve animals." Lin Xue hurriedly explained, and then introduced to Mu You: "This is Song Wenjing, a classmate of mine when I was studying abroad. He is a breeder of the Alien Research Department."
"boss?"
Song Wenjing was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized that her invitation just now was equivalent to digging a hole in front of the boss, and she suddenly said awkwardly: "I'm sorry..."
"It's okay... By the way, is the beauty interested in working in our pet shop? Our shop lacks talents like you." Mu You smiled indifferently, and gave a business card backhand.
"Ah, this... I'll think about it..." Song Wenjing took the business card with a dry smile, and stuffed it into her pocket casually without paying attention. After all, she is an official member of the special department of the state, and she is doing a job she likes. How could she accept a job in a pet shop? She just thought it was a joke at this time.
"Let's go, I'll take you in first." Song Wenjing led the way, and the three of them directly entered the gate of the Alien Research Department.
With Song Wenjing leading the way, the soldiers guarding the gate were not in any trouble.
After entering the gate, Mu You realized that there were already a lot of people gathered inside. They seemed to come from all walks of life, and they all gathered in front of one of the buildings to line up. Everyone had more or less animals in their hands. .
"These are also people who come to quarantine magical animals?" Mu You asked curiously.
"Some are here for approval, and some are here to sell magical animals." Song Wenjing said.
"Sell?"
"During the large-scale internal test before, our department issued an announcement to the society. If you find or encounter a magical animal, you can contact us or send it to our department. We will test whether it is a real alien animal. If If it is, it will pay to buy the ownership of the animals according to the rarity of these animals."
After Song Wenjing finished speaking, she looked at Lin Xue and asked, "By the way, what animals do you want to quarantine?"
"Well... more..." Lin Xue said.
"How many?" Song Wenjing was surprised.
"Are there dozens?" Lin Xue asked Mu You uncertainly as she spoke.
"It depends on what to do. If all of them are subject to quarantine, there will be several hundred..." Mu You said.
"Hundreds of them?" Song Wenjing's voice rose several degrees, causing those who lined up in the distance to look over curiously.
Song Wenjing looked at Mu You in surprise, and after confirming that he was not joking, she looked at Lin Xue again and cast a questioning look: Is your boss serious?
Lin Xue nodded silently to her.
"Then...you come with me, I'll take you to the dean."
Song Wenjing led the two of them to the side of the building, entered the building through the back door, passed through several checkpoints, and came to a certain basement... No, it should be said to be an underground base.
In the wide space opened up underground, a large number of magical animals are placed in various glass isolation rooms. Many staff members in white uniforms like Song Wenjing shuttle around in it, stopping from time to time to exchange and record information. They all seem to be very busy. look.
Mu You felt as if he had entered a museum of magical animals. Along the way, all kinds of familiar and unknown animals from other worlds, birds, fish, insects, and jungle animals were all here.
"There is a dangerous animal area over there, be careful not to approach it!"
Song Wenjing led the two of them to the depths of the underground base, pointed in one direction, and then ran to the other side.
On a desk over there, there was an old man wearing reading glasses. There was a pile of materials in front of him, and the old man was busy checking and reviewing the materials.
After Song Wenjing walked over, she quickly said a few words in the old man's ear. The old man looked up at Mu You and Lin Xue over here, then took off his glasses, left the desk and walked towards them.
Walking to the two of them, the old man glanced at Mu You, and then turned directly to Lin Xue: "Are you Lin Xue?"
"Hello, Dean Chen." As a person with a background in animal-related majors, Lin Xue has of course heard of this academician Chen Yichuan, who is well-known in the field of zoology.
Chen Yichuan nodded without any nonsense, and said directly: "Come work here, your ability can only be displayed here, you can ask for any treatment you want!"
Mu You was speechless as he listened beside him. Can these scientific scholars disregard the world's sophistication?
Mu You could hear what Song Wenjing said to him just now. Song Wenjing had already introduced their relationship. The old man knew that Lin Xue was his family's veterinarian, so he was not shy at all at this time.
Beside Song Wenjing was also a little embarrassed. In order to avoid this kind of misunderstanding, she made it clear the identities of the two of them just now, but the old dean still invited them, and the first thing she said was 'just mention the treatment'.
These words are useful to others, but not at all to the girl in front of me.
The result was exactly as she imagined. With a smile on her face, Lin Xue politely rejected the other party: "Thank you, but no need, my job is very good now."
"You're wasting your talent!" The old man looked heartbroken, but he still didn't give up, and continued to persuade: "If you come to work here, you can look at the materials of the Alien Research Department at will. These are two parts of our department. The crystallization of knowledge accumulated over the years, including the changes in the habits of all abnormal animals on the earth, gene sequencing, antibody serum preparation, germ prevention and control, immune function changes, etc...I guarantee that this is something you will never see in other places .”
Lin Xue was also a little moved when she heard the words, but she shook her head in the end: "It is indeed very precious information, but I'm sorry, I don't intend to change my mind."
"you…"
The old man frowned and looked at Lin Xue helplessly, not knowing what to say for a while.
Mu You, on the other hand, was listening to the old man's words, and was very interested in the information he said. Taking advantage of the silence at the scene, he suddenly asked a question: "May I ask, do you sell these materials?"
"..."
The scene suddenly fell into silence, and the other three looked over with strange expressions.
Mu You hurriedly added: "Oh, of course I don't want your intellectual property rights, I just want to buy a viewing right, copy a copy of the material for us, and then sign a non-disclosure agreement or a contract, so as not to spread it..."
"Uh, this..." Song Wenjing wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the old man.
"Sell! Ten million, do you buy it?" The old man sneered.
"Ten million..."
Mu You pondered seriously for a moment. Ten million, he didn't even dare to think about it before, but now, he can still get it together with a little effort.
"Ten million, is all the data packaged?"
If it is indeed the kind of information the old man said, then it is okay to buy it. He is destined to deal with animals from other worlds for a long time in the future, and these things can be used.
"..." The three faces were confused.
The old man was also speechless at this time, so he just reported the number casually, meaning that he wanted the other party to quit. After all, who would spend 10 million to buy a viewing right, and a buyout is almost the same.
In the end, why did the other party take it seriously? It seemed that he really planned to buy it, which made him a little bit embarrassed. Let’s sell it. A person who doesn't know the details; don't sell it, and if you just say it, you turn around and slap your face?
The old man didn't know how to answer the conversation for a while, but his breeder was more winking at this time.
"Let's talk about this later, so what, aren't you here to quarantine animals? Come and take a look, President Chen will personally quarantine you." Song Wenjing changed the topic.
"Is it here?" Mu You asked.
"That's right, it's here, don't worry, it's safe here." Song Wenjing said.
"Fine…"
Mu You also noticed that the other party didn't seem to want to sell at all, so he didn't ask any more.
Opened the backpack on the spot, made a door-shaped entrance, and walked in under the gaze of several people.
After a while, he came out from the door again, with two more birdcages in his hand.
Chen Yichuan was still a little embarrassed about the incident just now, and when Mu You came out, he subconsciously rolled his eyes at his hand.
As a result, his eyes widened in a flash, and what happened just now was thrown out of the blue.
"Silver Owl?!"
The old man rushed to Mu You quickly, his speed was not like that of an old man at all.
Holding the cage on Mu You's right hand with both hands, the old man carefully stared at the owl inside and observed it repeatedly, and then he was even more shocked: "It's still a silver owl that hasn't been neutered!"
"Where are you from?"
