The Card Apprentice

Chapter 157

Views:

Chen Mu has been in this village for two months, and he finally has a more specific understanding of this isolated village. The village does not have a name, and their surname is also very strange, called Wanqi, which even Bowen, who has a certain amount of research on surnames, has never heard of it.

For children of wealthy and quasi-rich families like Bowen, surname study is one of the courses they must learn. This course is of great help in the communication of the upper class. Basically, the Tianyou Federation's rather famous surname, Bowen, is well known, and he even knows some ancient surnames that were once glorious. But he had never heard of such a weird surname as Wantong.

There are about 100,000 people in the village, which can be regarded as a large-scale tribe. What surprised Chen Mu the most was the level of technological development here. Although they are very backward in terms of cards, they are much more advanced than Tianyou Federation in other aspects, such as metal crafting.

The metal manufacturing process has never been valued by the Tianyou Federation. The protective performance that metal can provide is really limited, which also limits its military use. On the contrary, because of its low cost, it is widely used in civilian applications, such as construction.

In Chen Mu's view, the metal technology in the village was unbelievable. They can produce very precise instruments, which far exceed the average metal manufacturing level of the Tianyou Federation. This can be seen from the making of the measuring instrument. Alfonso used an extremely light alloy to make the measuring instrument. It took him only two days to imitate the measuring instrument very easily, with excellent performance.

Unfortunately, neither Bo Wen nor Cheng Ying realized this. In their opinion, can the most sophisticated metal instruments be compared with higher-precision detection cards

However, Chen Mu saw the broad prospects contained in it, even though he was only a teenager. Compared to cards, the cost of metal is simply too low. The use of pure metal is limited, but if you combine the superb metal technology with the card system, the power of this combination will become very powerful! Moreover, Chen Mu learned from Alfonso that there were several ore veins near the village. Chen Mu couldn't help but wonder how Alfonso's ancestors found such a place with such a superior geographical environment.

From Chen Mu's point of view, the cards in the village were relatively primitive, and he discovered a strange place. Although Alfonso knew how to make cards, he didn't know anything about the card system, which made Chen Mu feel very incredible. After asking Alfonso, he found out that these production techniques they called "kawu" were handed down from their ancestors, and now there are very few left. There are not many types he can make.

Alfonso was also vague about the deeds of their ancestors, so it was inconvenient for Chen Mu to ask more.

Alfonso's progress is the fastest among all of them. He has experience in making card machines, and it is easier to understand card knowledge than others. Among the other teenagers, there were three who had improved significantly faster than the others, so Chen Mu didn't expect Du Hong to be among them. The only thing Chen Mu felt sorry for was Alfonso. Due to his age, his perception increases very slowly, the slowest among all people. Perception is the most basic skill a card maker should have, which will greatly limit Alfonso's future development space.

The three teenagers, including Li Duhong, have made rapid progress in this area, which can be described as divine speed, which is not much worse than that of Chen Mu back then. Especially liduhong. Among the three, he is the youngest and the fastest progressing. Chen Mu didn't hide his secrets, he taught these teenagers the perception training method he learned from the mysterious cards.

He was amazed by the resilience of these fellows' nerves. Back then, he was tossed to death by the extreme exercise method, but these children all acted as if nothing had happened.

Chen Mu soon fell in love with the life in the village, which is quiet and free. There is no need for him to do anything here. Basically, he will teach Alfonso first, and let Alfonso teach the other children. The material here is rich, richer than the base! This also greatly stimulated his research enthusiasm. The only thing that makes people uncomfortable is that all the materials here are the most primitive materials, and he needs to deal with them one by one.

Where did he learn how to handle materials? In desperation, I had to explore slowly. Fortunately, this process is full of fun. In addition, the children in that class are really obedient, many things only need to be listed in the experiment table, and they will strictly follow the above experiment, which greatly reduces the time required for the experiment.

In two months, the area of "Chen's Laboratory" tripled, and the number of his subordinates also tripled, to nearly eighty people. The knowledge these children learned from Chen Mu will be recorded in detail and left with Seth for backup.

The cards made by Chen Mu are affecting the village little by little, such as energy cards. The energy utilization rate of the energy card is much higher than the energy extraction device they used before, and it is also much smaller. The most popular ones are heating cards and lighting cards. These two common cards are welcomed by almost all villagers. For the villagers who need to enter the jungle, the lighting card and heating card can greatly reduce the weight of their carrying materials.

The two cards made by Chen Mu only have one star, and they are the simplest cards. Their functions are limited, but they don't have any requirements for users. Chen Mu had his own considerations for launching these two cards. Although these two cards are simple, they are very practical, and these two cards are just for the beginners below to practice.

The one-star energy card, one-star lighting card, and one-star heating card are all one-star, but for these villagers who have never touched the cards, they are full of shock.

Compared with the "card objects" they usually use, the weight and size of the measuring instrument are almost negligible, and it is much more convenient to carry around. After trying the benefits of Duyi, after the villagers heard that more advanced cards require professional training, the flow of people in Bowen and Cheng Yingna immediately surged.

It's okay for Chen Muna to be taken care of by the patriarch, as long as he doesn't take the initiative to speak up, he doesn't dare to go to that place called the laboratory.

What puzzled the villagers the most was that Mr. Chen had a good relationship with Weah.

Weah was in the village and only listened to the words of the patriarch. He is not from the village. A few years ago, the patriarch found Weah in a coma in the jungle and rescued him. After Weah woke up, he lost his memory and couldn't remember who he was. Even his current name, Weah, was given by the patriarch for him.

From then on, he followed the patriarch and was inseparable. He is extremely skilled and has no rivals in the village, which makes many competitive young people treat him very badly. It's just that the strength is there, and no one dares to find fault. Weah was indifferent and taciturn, and would not listen to anyone except the words of the patriarch.

"Your physical condition is the best I have ever seen." Weah said with a cold expression, he was making his fortieth effort.

"Oh." Chen Mu didn't take it seriously, he has been busy with his research. For the first time like this, he can spend his time as he wants without any pressure. He doesn't need to worry about money, in fact, money is of no use here. And all the villagers in this village are extremely kind and respectful to him, and the patriarch didn't give him any hard requirements. He can do whatever he wants without worrying about materials. The materials here are rich and of high quality, which are hard to find in other places.

Isn't this the life you want

Chen Mu didn't think about leaving the jungle anymore. He thought that after leaving the jungle, he would not live better than here.

Weah's interest in him was born after seeing him practice calisthenics. More objectively speaking, he is interested in Chen Mu's body. He thought that Chen Mu's physical fitness was excellent, and he could learn some skills by himself. According to him, only Chen Mu's condition can meet the standard in the whole village.

"I don't remember many skills, but enough to teach you." Weah's expression was still iceberg.

Chen Mu couldn't remember how many times he refused: "Weah, I really don't have time. Look, how busy I am now?" He pointed to the assistants who were busy in the laboratory: "I still have a lot of time. Experiments to be done. I need to re-determine the properties of these materials, otherwise, they are just a pile of grass."

Weah was unmoved: "You are very suitable to learn my skills."

Weah's persistence caused Chen Mu a headache, and he sighed helplessly: "Weah, I'm really sorry. I've already learned a lot of skills, if there are more skills, it will become more complicated. You also know , Too complicated often means that nothing can be achieved. What I need now is not to learn new skills, but to continue to mine and refine the skills I have learned.”

Chen Mu didn't realize that due to the change of the environment, he needed to communicate with different people. Alfonso, other assistants, Colin, etc. also talked more than before. And as the pressure of death lessened, Chen Mu also began to gradually recover his youthful nature.

"I won't take up too much of your time." Weah still didn't intend to give up.

At this moment, Colin suddenly broke into the laboratory, and said solemnly: "Mr. Chen, the patriarch invites you to go over."
