"No, it's not a condition, it's a risk." Rommel shook his head and corrected, "If you can complete this task, in addition to the rewards you deserve, I can make an exception and hand over the 'Blood Alchemy' that can only be redeemed by core members. Here you go. However, you have to think clearly, it is very likely that you will not be able to complete this task."
"I accept."
"Um?"
"I accept." Richard repeated, "I accept this task and am willing to take the corresponding risks, because I believe that my research will have results."
"All right… "
…
After more than ten minutes, some details of the task were determined, and Richard left the conference room.
Canon turned to look at Rommel and couldn't help but ask: "Director, did you really agree to him like this?"
"Why not?"
"Didn't you say that this is a dead-end road?"
"But you should also know that Wizard Richard is a very persistent person. In other words, he is a very paranoid person." Rommel said, "Once such a person has determined a direction, he will not stop until he hits a wall. Give up. Even hitting the wall once is not enough, you have to hit the wall several times in a row.
So instead of persuading him, let him let nature take its course. One day, he will realize it on his own. In this process, it would be best to help solve Holos' problem. If it can't be solved, it will be his life. "
Canon was convinced.
Rommel didn't hesitate any more, turned around and walked out with the rabbit in his arms.
After a while, Canon suddenly reacted, stood up and shouted: "Supervisor, my... rabbit..."
There was no response, Rommel had already walked away.
…
the other side.
Richard returned to Blue Lake Manor in Jialan City and sat in his study.
At this time, he did not feel the pain of running into a wall as Rommel had imagined. Instead, he held the quill confidently and calculated something on the papyrus scroll.
"Shashasha..."
After the calculation, Richard looked satisfied with the final result - 3.005±0.0125.
This is the value obtained by reducing the energy consumption after recent efforts to study the energy evocation spell, and it has reached 3. Next, he is going to slowly lower it to 2.
After it is really reduced to 2, although there is still some gap from the theoretical value of 1, it has reached a level that is barely acceptable. By then, the research and manufacturing plans for nuclear weapons will be greatly accelerated.
Of course, before that, he had to get the "Blood Alchemy" spell for research.
Before that, he had to complete the task he received not long ago - to explore the dangerous forest and find out the detailed information.
Before that, he had to make some preparations for exploring the forest and performing tasks.
After thinking about it, Richard took a new piece of papyrus and started writing a letter with a quill.
After writing the letter, he put it in an envelope and called the butler Gallie.
"Give this to Wizard Vicky of Ash Academy." Richard handed over the letter and ordered.
"Yes, Master." Gallie did not hesitate after hearing the words, carefully took the letter, put it in his arms, turned around and walked out of the door.
…
Soon, the next day comes.
Ash Academy outside Jialan City, early morning.
A carriage pulled by four strong horses came from a distance, and then slowly stopped in front of the door.
Bobo Bovich came out, glanced at the carriage, and snorted angrily.
Richard opened the curtain, looked at Bobo Bo Vicki, and said, "Why, you don't want to go on a mission with me?"
"It's weird if you are willing." Popobo Vicki folded his hands on his chest and said angrily, "Don't think about me when you do good things, and only think about me when you do bad things. You make so much money by running a mine, why didn't you ask me to join you? Do it now. The mission is over, but you ask me to accompany you, what good does it do me?"
"Didn't you complain to me before that you didn't have enough points within the Truth Society to exchange for many things you want?" Richard said, "Because this mission is a seventh-level danger level, there will definitely be a lot of points once it is completed. . And I don’t value points very much, and I have already received another promise, so I plan to give you my share of points. Of course, if you don’t want to agree, forget it, I will go find the others.”
After hearing what he said, Bobo Bovich stood there for a moment. Then he burst onto the carriage with unimaginable speed, sat down next to Richard, and said with great seriousness: "Who said I won't agree? I have already agreed!"
Richard shrugged: "Okay, let's set off now."
"Wait a minute!" Popobo Vicki suddenly shouted again.
"What's wrong?" Richard asked.
"First let me go back to the academy to prepare some potions to take with me." Popobo Vicki said, "This mission of yours is really dangerous. Although your conditions make me very excited, you can guarantee that my life will be better." It’s important to be fully prepared.”
"Then you have to hurry up."
"Will do."
Bobo Bovich responded, jumped off the carriage again, and returned soon holding a heavy box.
Richard took a look at the box. The bottom was about 30 centimeters long and wide, and the height was over 20 centimeters. It was roughly estimated that it could hold hundreds of bottles of medicine, and he couldn't help but said: "Isn't this a bit too much for you? "
"No more, no more. If you hadn't urged me so urgently, I would have brought the other half with me." Bobo Bo Vicki said, "You don't know, I have just developed several brand-new potions recently, and I was just thinking about it." To try the effect, of course you have to bring more."
"Okay, as long as you don't mind the trouble." Richard shook his head, said no more on this topic, and set off.
…
This journey took four days and three nights.
We changed horses several times along the way, and even changed the mode of transportation in the second half—getting on a wooden boat and going down the river.
Finally, on the night of the fourth day, Richard and Popovich arrived in a small town called "Roach".
According to the arrangement of the Truth Society, they will meet a third-level wizard from the Holos branch here and explore the forest with each other.
In the night, Richard and Bobo Bo Vicki walked into the town and walked towards the only tavern in the town - that was the agreed meeting point.
Bobo Bo Vicki was walking with the medicine box in his hand, and couldn't help but complain: "To be honest, I suddenly regret coming here now. Isn't it too far? And the climate here is so hot. The blue is not the same at all, it’s damp and wet, and it makes my nose feel uncomfortable all over, ah-yeah!”
As he spoke, Bobo Bovich sneezed loudly.
Richard glanced at Bobo Bo Vicki, didn't answer, opened the door and walked into the tavern.
When the people in the tavern heard the noise, they turned their heads and looked at each other with different eyes. The person dressed as a farmer is curious, the person dressed as a warrior is a little wary, and the skinny thief has flashing eyes, secretly guessing whether he can make some money.
Suddenly, the boss behind the counter coughed.
"cough!"
"Swipe" for a moment, all eyes converged.
