"It looks like you're fine, but I'm worried for nothing." When Angel left the conference hall, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in his ear.
This is Sanders' voice.
Angel followed the energy fluctuations and incorporated his own voice into it.
When Angel and Sanders were talking, the Muse and Midora who were walking in front seemed to have found something. They looked back at Angel and didn't say much, but the pace became a little slower. .
"I'm preparing to go to the R&D Institute now, and I'll be back when this is over. By the way, does the instructor know about my brother?"
"Leon came over and took his salute before, and your friend Nausicaa has already left."
Sanders said something to Angel again, and it was not until Angel arrived at the door to enter the R&D Institute that he said, "The R&D Institute has a shielding field, and I'll talk about other things when you come back."
After speaking, Sanders cut off the telephony.
Angel also entered the R&D Institute at the right time.
As before, along the "Zhi"-shaped cliff wall, they extended all the way and directly entered the top hall of the Fantasy Machine City.
Muse handed the access card to a robotic puppet to inject new information.
Next, Muse and Midora sat down and continued the unfinished communication with Angel.
The communication time this time was not long, and it just concluded some unfinished topics before. When the story was about the same, Muse couldn't wait to carry out experimental verification.
In the end, only Midora and Angel looked at each other.
"Since Muse is busy, then I will tell you some rules about the R&D Institute." Midora pondered.
Following Midora's story, Angel gradually gained a general understanding of the R&D Institute. From the outside, the R&D Institute is a sacred institution; but in fact, it is a subjective idea that the institution is sacred or not, but this is definitely the most loosely managed institution that Angel has ever heard of.
There are many benefits that can be obtained in the R&D Institute, such as knowledge interaction with fellow alchemists, deepening discussions on alchemy issues, almost unlimited supply of common materials, cherished materials priority purchase rights, special materials can even be exchanged for points... and so on.
There are basically no special obligations, only two things, which may be regarded as relatively compulsory measures.
First, teach some alchemists who stay in the mechanical city, and the teaching will earn points, and the points can be exchanged for many things.
Second, and the most unavoidable thing for all members, sit in the R&D Institute!
The president of the R&D Institute is irreplaceable, the muse. But it is not necessarily the muse who sits in the research and development institute, but rotates.
Sitting in the R&D Institute can actually be understood as acting as the dean. When you become the acting dean, the power can be raised to a great extent, which may seem very attractive, but it will also pay a lot accordingly.
Among them, the most distressing thing for the members is that they have to spend a lot of time doing things that are very tedious but must be performed in person.
For example, all R&D institutes negotiate with other organizations, work arrangements of R&D institutes, formulation of topics, publication of works and follow-up...etc.
All these things make the people in town feel very troublesome.
The life of an alchemist can basically be summed up as "home and freedom".
Either house like a muse, or love freedom like Gandalf.
Muse stayed in the R&D Institute for alchemy research all the year round, and basically would not go out. That's why the matter of the Sky Machine City was all pushed to Rosen, who was only responsible for producing the alchemy results.
Gandalf's nickname is "The Light Walker", and the walking in it has actually explained the problem. Wandering around the world all year round, looking for inspiration on the way.
Muse and Gandalf represent the attitudes of two alchemists, no matter which one is, they are contrary to sitting in the R&D Institute to handle all kinds of chores.
The members of the R&D Institute are either Muse type or Gandalf type.
Therefore, almost everyone does not like to sit in R&D institutes.
Only when it comes to myself, will I touch my nose and bite the bullet.
Of course, you can choose not to come, whether it is to teach or sit in the R&D institute. For example, many members have not come to the R&D Institute for thousands of years, and there is still no punishment, but correspondingly, you will not get any convenience.
If you only want the convenience of the R&D Institute and don’t want to contribute to the R&D Institute, it’s okay; but in that case, other members will naturally be dissatisfied, you will only be more and more marginalized, and no other members will communicate with you alchemy .
"So, if I join the R&D Institute, I will also be assigned to sit?" Angel couldn't help but ask after listening to it.
"Not yet, because you still need a basic assessment to be in the R&D institute. This assessment covers many aspects. I don't expect to make arrangements for you in a short period of time. But in the future, if you always enjoy the convenience of the R&D institute, and the assessment After you pass the border, you will definitely be assigned to sit in town." Midora paused: "Although you won't be in town now, if you have time, you might as well come to Sky Machine City to teach a few classes. Some alchemists don't care about technology. It's not enough, but their ideas may inspire you a lot. Moreover, the points you get from teaching are also very useful. You can consult Antonio later."
Angel nodded understandingly: "I've never taught a class before, and I don't know if I can do it myself."
"Mother-in-law Nail talked to me before, you go to her alchemy shop, but there are apprentices who want to be your assistants. In fact, teaching a class and bringing an assistant are basically the same. They don't understand, it's their business, It has nothing to do with you." Midora smiled: "And, with your current popularity, if the class starts, I guess whether it is epicology or pharmacy, or even some more special alchemy schools, all want to come and listen. Listen."
"The class is starting now, and I don't know whether to teach or be surrounded by people." Angel couldn't help shivering when he thought of that scene.
"Anyway, you don't lose. The more people you have, the more points you earn." Midora didn't care about being watched.
Angel still shook his head: "Forget it, I won't start classes for the time being. Moreover, I won't be going to experiments in the near future. I have more important things to deal with."
Whether it's Jon's business, Toby's business, including his own promotion, he needs to be a step ahead. Others, such as giving lectures and coming to the R&D Institute to communicate, are secondary.
Midora nodded. Sanders came to him not long ago and said something, so he knew about Angel's current situation.
"In any case, it is a very happy thing for you to join the R&D Institute."
Midora's words, for the time being, make a conclusion here. However, Angel's access card had not been obtained yet, so he asked about something he had always wondered about during the witnessing ceremony.
"Ms. Portia who was sitting next to me before, her name always sounds familiar to me. Who is she?" Angel asked.
"Portia, it's normal for you to feel familiar, do you know the Shuya balance formula?"
Angel was stunned for a moment, and suddenly reacted: "Portia's triangular conjunction structure!"
"Yes, this is an alchemy magic formula that modifies a loophole in Shuya's balance formula. It was discovered and named by Portia." Midora said with great emotion: "Portia is a very talented alchemist. My mother-in-law once even said that she may be the closest person to the mysterious field in the current R&D institute, apart from Muse."
"But now, you have surpassed me." Midora said with a smile.
Angel did not expect that Portia could actually modify this basic alchemy formula, and it was successful. Sure enough, the members of the R&D Institute cannot be underestimated.
Next, Midora told Angel about the members in the conference room this time.
In general, these members are neutral, a relatively moderate category. Radicals such as Dong La did not come this time... By the way, there is another digression. The owner of the pool full of special reaction liquid that Angel saw in the Fantasy Machine City before is indeed Dong La.
Among them, Midora specifically mentions Magstone.
"Don't blame Magus Stone, his character is not actually a radical." Midora sighed: "The main reason is that the position you are currently in is a bit vague, and Magus Stone has to do it."
Whether Midora's cheeks were helpful, he didn't know.
Because, he didn't know whether the relationship between Angel and Frost Moon would improve, or whether it would continue to be blurred, or even move towards fierce opposition.
When they were talking about the same, Antonio, who was covered in pale blue light, came from a distance.
Antonio looked at Angel and handed over the access control card in his hand: "The information inside has been saved, and it will belong to Mr. Pat in the future. This card can also be used as Mr. in Sky Machine City. Identify card."
Angel nodded and took it.
Midora also told him before that this access card is very useful. It is not only used in the R&D Institute, but also in other facilities in the Sky Machine City. It can even be used to enter the endless corridor.
At this moment, the Rising Star Competition is still in full swing, and the final reward is actually the qualification to enter the Endless Corridor.
After Antonio handed the access card to Angel, he added: "However, there are some incomplete information, such as Mr. Pat's name. Because there are too many rumored names, I don't know which one to use. So it's vacant for now. If you need to register, sir can come to me at any time."
Midora also said at this time: "Speaking of which, I am also curious, what name are you going to use?"
Angel had actually thought about the name rectification. Although he had an idea in his heart, he did not make a conclusion.
Midora thought that Angel had no idea, and said: "The name is just a code name. After all, the meaning of the name is very subtle. It would be more appropriate to have a name as a buffer. You don't have to worry, anyway, many people don't have it until after the official wizard. Nickname, it all depends on your volition."
Angel nodded: "I will tell Antonio about the name as soon as I have an idea."
