Dimensional Expedition

Chapter 59: 59. Expensive knowledge

Views:

Nancy finally followed Lu Cheng back to the camp safely and came to the school in the camp.

The school temporarily built by Professor Lin is actually two tents. Under Professor Lin's arrangement, it is used to teach Chinese to the children in the camp in the morning, and to teach some researchers and soldiers in the camp the common language of this world in the afternoon.

It was lunchtime, just when they were done with get out of class. When Lu Cheng brought Nancy here, he saw the picture poster pushing a wheelchair out of the tent.

The picture was pushing a wheelchair... Lu Cheng had an impression of this wheelchair, so she privately asked Lu Cheng if he could apply for a wheelchair from the research base.

After Lu Cheng made a brief report to the research base, the application was quickly approved. Sitting in the wheelchair was a little girl about the same age as Noi. Lu Cheng remembered that she was the last refugee rescued by the search and rescue team.

When Lu Cheng first saw her, her legs were still bleeding, but now her legs are in plaster.

"Are you taking care of her?" Lu Cheng remembered that the medical team where Pictorial was located was taking care of many children who had lost their parents.

"Yes, Captain. She is in relatively good health. Plus, she wants to learn to read, so I signed her up for Professor Lin's school." Pictorial said, "But due to her health, she may not be able to attend the afternoon classes."

"I hope you can get better soon." Lu Cheng said to the little girl in the wheelchair.

She nodded slightly, still looking a little afraid of Lu Cheng.

However, when the pictorial took her away, Lu Cheng still felt the energy transmitted from the girl flowing into the crystal on the back of his hand.

The energy of the holy crystal on Lu Cheng's hand increased by nearly 1.5 grams throughout the day yesterday, which was ten times the increase during the seven days he was stationed in the royal city.

This also shows that the refugees living in the camp feel very safe because they have a safe place to sleep.

"Come with me."

After Lu Cheng watched the pictorial leave, he walked into the makeshift school with Nancy, who was a little nervous, behind him.

Last night, Professor Lin sent his assistant to explain how to use daily necessities and asked if there were any refugees willing to participate in the study.

But in this era, in the eyes of most parents, it is better to have an extra hand to farm than to let their children learn to read and write.

Driven by this concept, there were not many children in the tent school. Lu Cheng counted and there were only thirteen of them, seven boys and six girls. Including the girl who was taken care of by the pictorial, there were only fourteen in total.

The oldest student in the entire tent school is Elena, and the youngest is probably Tata, the younger sister of the boy named Derek.

When Lu Cheng came in, Tata was lying in front of Noi's desk and talking to Noi happily, and Noi was answering him using his notebook.

The moment Nuoyi saw Lu Cheng coming in, he ran to Lu Cheng and held up his notebook.

There were already several pages of simple Chinese characters written on Noyi's notebook, such as one, two, three, you, me, etc., with the pinyin syllables marked on them.

If Nuoyi could speak, she would have excitedly read these words in front of Lu Cheng at this moment.

"Very impressive. Our language is a little difficult to learn. You must work harder in the future."

Lu Cheng's words were not meant to scare Nuoyi. There are many languages on earth, but Chinese is definitely one of the most difficult to learn.

Nuoyi nodded silently while holding the notebook, but she soon set her eyes on Nancy behind Lu Cheng.

"Just find a seat and sit down. You're lucky to have me teaching you today."

The afternoon course was actually first-grade math, but the researchers in the camp who knew the alien language all participated in the reclamation plan, so Lu Cheng, as the commander of the camp, had nothing to do.

“Find a seat…”

Nancy looked around and saw that most of the students sitting in the tent were around ten years old. If it weren't for Princess Elena sitting in the last row, she would have mistakenly thought that she had entered something like... an early childhood enlightenment school.

There were only three empty desks in the tent, so Nancy had no choice but to sit down next to the princess.

After Nancy sat down, she watched Lu Cheng walk to the podium and briefly introduce himself. When Lu Cheng's class was about to begin, Nancy was sure that it was definitely a preschool education! Or the lowest level of arithmetic addition and subtraction! Starting from one plus one!

Nancy was an excellent apprentice of the Gemansis Secret Society after all. She really couldn't listen to this kind of enlightenment teaching, but Elena next to her made her sit down obediently and listen to Lu Cheng's lectures very seriously.

Because although it is basic addition and subtraction arithmetic of one plus one, the numerical symbols used in Lucheng are completely different from the numerical symbols in this world.

That is to say, if... if Xiu Enzhe comes to the kingdom and has the opportunity to introduce their golems, the operation must use their language and numerical symbols.

Nancy must learn these as soon as possible, and learn better than the Queen of Scarlett!

The class didn't last long, just under an hour. Lu Cheng ended the class when the kids were losing their concentration, and gave each of them a White Rabbit candy as a reward.

"Here, this is yours." Lu Cheng handed the candy in his hand to Nancy and said.

"I don't actually need this kind of thing to coax me." Nancy glanced at Elena who was eating happily next to her, and still took the candy from Lu Cheng's hand.

"How about that? Mathematics from our world."

Lu Cheng found a chair and sat in front of Nancy, wanting to ask the princess about her experience in learning addition and subtraction in the first grade of elementary school.

"I don't have too many feelings about it. It's just that the symbols have changed. Vertical addition and subtraction are more efficient than the arithmetic method invented by the Gemansis Secret Order, but these..." Nancy didn't know whether she should say the next sentence here.

"These have no effect on your country, right?" Lu Cheng said what Nancy wanted to say next.

"Um?"

Elena, who was eating White Rabbit milk candy at the side, was finally attracted by this key word. She stared at Nancy, who was sitting next to her, for a long time.

"I seem to know you. You appeared in the castle... and discussed something with my sister." Elena said.

"Your Majesty Elena, I am Nancy Morgan... the fourth princess of the Xiuenzhelai Kingdom."

After being recognized by Elena, Nancy had no choice but to stand up and bow to Elena solemnly.

As the ruler of Scarre, even though it is a country that has been ravaged by blood crystal beasts and is close to destruction, Elena still needs to be respected by Xiu Enzhelai's kingdom.

Because Elena seems to have a very good relationship with these people in the camp.

But this is not good news for Nancy.

"A year ago, I visited Skarre as an envoy to discuss matters concerning the coalition forces." Nancy also stated the reason for her visit to Skarre.

"Scare is now... no longer able to send out coalition forces." After hearing this, Elena still took on the responsibility of being the king, and regretfully told Nancy this news that everyone knew.

"It's not your fault."

As Nancy said this, she also began to worry about her own country. As early as a year ago, the Principality of Leslota, which was supported by the Far South Empire, had tried to pull her country into the territory of its vassal state.

A year later, Nancy felt that... Yuannan should have succeeded long ago, but what worried Nancy more was whether Scarre's blood crystal beast disaster could spread to her country.

"When do you plan to return to your country?" Lu Cheng listened quietly to the two girls' slightly immature conversation and asked Nancy a very crucial question.

"There's no point in me going back now. I need to at least learn something useful from you guys."

Nancy no longer concealed her purpose for staying in the camp.

"Is that so? I think I can tell you a piece of knowledge that can theoretically conquer the world for free." Lu Cheng stood up from his chair and walked straight to the blackboard.

Nancy didn't seem very happy about it being 'free'. She bit her lips lightly, not knowing how to answer Lu Cheng.

Because Nancy knew the saying that free things are always the most expensive.
