The strong black man followed Richard to the upper floor of the bookstore with some trepidation. To his relief, Richard did not reveal his "offensive behavior" to the store owner Hardy and left the bookstore directly.
After leaving the bookstore, Richard quickly walked out of the underground market and returned to the laboratory.
…
Laboratory, main laboratory.
Richard lined up the eight books he purchased on the table. His eyes were bright and he was already certain of his previous guesses.
Among the eight books, three are "Towards Nobility" that I already own. The numbers in the Black Spirit Empire logo are 1, 2, and 25 respectively. There are three copies of "My Autobiography - Moratos" that I already own, numbered 18, 27, and 36 respectively. There is a book that I already own, "Blood and Fire", and the number is 20. There is also a spell book called "Soul Wail", numbered 5.
Together with the books we already owned, the results are as follows:
There are five books in "My Autobiography - Moratos", numbered 9, 18, 27, 27 and 36. It seems that the numbers are all multiples of 9, which is very regular, but looking at the other books it is not. so.
For example, "Towards Nobility" currently has four books, numbered 1, 2, 25 and 34 respectively. There doesn't seem to be any regular connection between the four numbers.
Another example is "Blood and Fire". There are currently two volumes, numbered 11 and 20 respectively. There seems to be no regular connection between the two numbers.
The last "Soul Wail" is numbered 5, let's not care about it for now.
In short, there are twelve books, divided into four categories, and the connections between them seem extremely confusing.
But when Richard looked at these books, he smiled and said to himself: "It looks like this is really the case. It's really a coincidence. If it weren't for his previous behavior, it would be really hard to guess."
The twelve books in four categories are related. In Richard's opinion, they are very closely related.
Take the book "My Autobiography - Moratos" as an example. The five numbers are 9, 18, 27, 27 and 36.
Then you can calculate it like this:
9+9=18, 18+81=99;
18+18=99;
27+72=99;
27+72=99;
36+63=99.
Palindrome number! Licrel number! What I told the great scholar Suradis before was the connection hidden in the symbol of the Black Spirit Empire on the last page of the book!
What about other types of books? The same can be verified.
For example, "Towards Nobility" has four numbers: 1, 2, 25 and 34. Then the process of verifying the Licrel number is:
1+1=2, 2+2=4, 4+4=8, 8+8=16, 16+61=77;
2+2=4, 4+4=8, 8+8=16, 16+61=77;
25+52=77;
34+43=77.
For another example, "Blood and Fire" has a total of two numbers, 11 and 20, so the process of verifying the Licrel number is:
11+11=22;
20+02(2)=22.
Finally, for example, for the new book "Soul Wail", the number is 5, then the process of Licrel number verification is:
5+5=10, 10+01(1)=11;
Because the final palindrome numbers of 11 and the other three types of books are different, it is another type of book.
Of course, there are many issues that need to be paid attention to.
First, if the so-called connection between numbers in books is really palindrome numbers and Licrel numbers, then how to explain the fact that there is currently no relevant knowledge about palindromes and Licrel numbers in the wizarding world? At first, he told the great scholar Surates about the knowledge of palindromic numbers and Licrel numbers.
Is it not true in the current era, but it was present in the past era of the Black Spirit Empire? In this case, could it be that the Black Spirit Empire had a higher level of mathematics and other aspects at the time, and after its demise, the world experienced some kind of decline, leading to a decrease in the level of mathematics
Second, according to the definition of mathematics on modern earth, a palindrome number in the strict sense must include one digit such as 1, 2, 3, etc., because 1 is always read no matter it is read from left to right or from right to left. It is 1, which conforms to the definition of palindrome number. The current inference is that in the so-called connection between palindrome numbers and Licrel numbers, palindrome numbers do not include one digit. The minimum number starts from 11. There are also many small details in other aspects.
Could it be that the original mathematics of the Black Spirit Empire was different from that on Earth? Therefore, the so-called "relationship between palindrome numbers and Licrel numbers" should be the "modified version of the connection between palindrome numbers and Licrel numbers"
In any case, for now, the connection does exist in this way.
According to this method, since there are currently no digital numbers exceeding 40, the number range can be controlled within 40 to perform some calculations.
Under this calculation, during the verification process of the Licrel number, there will be 11 palindrome numbers of the Black Spirit Empire version, ranging from small to large, 11, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66, 77, 88, 99, 121,363.
Under the current circumstances, "The Wail of the Soul" with palindrome number 11, "Blood and Fire" with palindrome number 22, "Towards Nobility" with palindrome number 77 and "My Autobiography - Moratos" with palindrome number 99 》Already got it.
The rest are the books involved in the seven palindrome numbers 22, 33, 44, 55, 66, 88, 121 and 363, involving a total of 29 numbers.
In other words, the worst possibility is to find the remaining 29 books with different numbers in order to try to unlock the secrets of the White Stone Tower and the Black Spirit King. The most optimistic possibility is to find at least one palindrome number each representing A total of 7 books will do.
The road is long and long... The task is arduous and the road ahead is long.
Richard sighed and thought in his mind.
While thinking, it was late at night.
…
Late at night, somewhere in the slums of White Rock City.
The two men lowered their heads and walked quickly.
The man walking in front was tall, with a powerful appearance, and a scar on his face, which made people even more wary. There was a man walking behind who was extremely thin, with a wretched aura that penetrated into his bones, making people look down upon him with the utmost contempt.
The two walked and talked while walking.
The thin man asked the tall man: "Brother Lance, is what you said true?"
The tall man responded: "Heite, when have I lied to you? I said yes, of course. This time, if you pay the membership fee and successfully join the membership, you can be classified as one of my subordinates. In this way, I will just join in." If you have enough subordinates, you can be promoted to deputy minister, and you are considered a formal member.
Remember, Hatt, President Winkle is a real big shot, and he is here to help us out of the best of intentions. You can't slack off just because you're a member. We must sincerely follow President Winkle’s teachings, work hard, and attract more people into the church. In this way, our Black Gold Society can become stronger and stronger, and you and I can have a higher status.
Now let me tell you again, if you can't win one person, you will always be the lowest member. If you recruit three people, you can become the deputy team leader, and if you gather three deputy leaders, you can become the official team leader. Next up is deputy minister, who I want to be promoted to, and then minister. Further up, there are the vice president, official branch president, and vice president.
In short, the more you work, the more you will gain. President Winkel said that when he becomes the vice-president, he will be qualified to be on an equal footing with him and can jointly manage the entire Black Gold Association with him. In addition, Knox's castle and Pist's large territory can also be shared with us. "
The tall man looked at the thin man, as if he was affected by what he said, and said with burning eyes: "In short, as long as you work hard, you can get ahead! Do you understand?!"
Do you understand? !
