Lord of Rot

Chapter 553 is simply called "Hogwarts"

"According to my reading of the classics and various materials, combining runes and magic circles, it is indeed possible to create something that increases the range of spiritual power."

Scholar Thomas spitted Xingzi proudly: "Hell has provided a lot of help here. She is definitely the best student I have ever seen!"

Li Qi looked at Hel, who had no limbs. He was a little embarrassed.

"Oh? What help was provided?"

"I am based on the letterpress printing invented by you, sir," Thomas scholar said, picking up stacks of snake skins. Basically, the skins of the four-headed snakes that Li Qi obtained were taken away by Thomas scholars. For this reason, He wanted to get a few more space bags but couldn't.

But he also knew the importance of research. It was just a snake skin and nothing at all.

Scholar Thomas took out a snake skin engraved with different runes, spread it on the table and said: "I asked Hel to constantly provide spiritual power, sense it at any time, and then change the runes."

He gestured and pulled away a piece of rune, then replaced it with a new one.

Good guys, exhaustive method.

Li Qi also knew that he couldn't really try them one by one. He probably wanted to experiment with permutations and combinations after he had a general direction in mind. However, the genius Hull as a tool man also played a great role.

"The potion needs to be supplied," Li Qi said.

Even if the magic potion can make up for the vacancy and consumption, it cannot make up for the mental fatigue. The role played by Hel here is definitely not just a tool. At least Li Qi in the entire territory is unwilling to do this. Others include Ake. No one has the capital to do this.

"It has been arranged a long time ago" Scholar Thomas chuckled.

Li Qi: "..."

I wonder why money is spent so fast!
However, Li Qi was very satisfied with the results Thomas Thomas could produce.

"How much can the range be expanded?" he asked.

"This, if you expand the scope and stabilize the supply of spiritual power..." Scholar Thomas suddenly shut up, turned around and took a notebook, opened it and rummaged through it for a long time, and finally looked dizzy at the list of Li Qi's The formula was sent to him.

"I have calculated that if a 50-foot-tall tower is built, the coverage area can be as large as two porcupine collars, but the only problem is that someone needs to be permanently stationed in it."

Ordinary people can't do it at all. Not only is it a waste of mental power, but people can't concentrate as well.

"Give me the architectural formulas, models, and drawings," Li Qi said, "I'll find someone to evaluate."

"Do you know other scholars?" Scholar Thomas asked hurriedly.

It's not that he's jealous, but that many of his studies have stalled. If other scholars help, the problem can be solved to a certain extent and draw parallels.

"No, but there are experts in spiritual connection."

What Li Qi is talking about is Isis. Isis's "debut" relies on mental control and spiritual links. Now she is the core of the ghoul network. Li Qi can let Isis experiment. If it is really feasible, start building a large number of signals. tower.

When the time comes, you can dig a hole and stuff the ghouls in it, and then use it as the core of the signal tower to concentrate on "power supply" and provide signals.

Li Qi didn't like the coverage of the two porcupine collars. He could connect to the ghouls in the water stream with his own spiritual power, but if it was not a hard enhancement but a multiple increase, it would be a huge profit.

Second grade students say, from now on, no one can cover Li Qi’s eyes!
"There is also a walkie-talkie," Li Qi said: "The walkie-talkie signal is a problem. Another point is to increase the frequency band, which one should be connected to which one."

Looking at the confused Thomas scholar, Li Qi simply explained what he meant.

It is impossible for only two walkie-talkies to be used with each other in this world. If applied to the military, a group of people would be talking on different channels, just like rushing to a big gathering, and would be completely useless.Scholar Thomas nodded. This is not a difficult technique, just a small problem in alchemy. Threaded stones actually have this function. Otherwise, using so many threaded stones together would have caused chaos.

Then there are the switches and other small designs.

Li Qi simply said that there were not too many functions, as long as the walkie-talkie was manufactured, it could be slowly improved and changed in the future.

In fact, after the ghoul signal tower was successfully built, Li Qi didn't know whether it should be called a walkie-talkie or a telephone... No, it should be called a magic word.

Scholar Thomas shamelessly asked Li Qi for a research fund, but he followed the stick. Knowing that Mr. Li Qi was happy, he asked for 10000 gold days for research expenses, and Li Qi gave him a slap. A discount of only 1500 gold days.

Although he became rich again because of the war, he must be restrained in funding and use part of the research results to give part of the money, otherwise it would not be called throwing money away.

Li Qi has no grudge against money, the more the better.

And Scholar Thomas didn't think it was less. He only gave 1000 gold days before, but now he was given 500 more. Betty was jealous when she saw it. Although her funding for Betty's Alchemy Workshop was also pleasant, all the money was spent on materials. That burned The speed of money is completely inferior to that of Thomas scholars.

Tonks is a scholar...she is fishing.

Li Qi stayed in the Porcupine Territory for a few more days. He was not too eager to have children, and with the Grass of Life, even griffons could conceive children, so there was no way he couldn't.

But when I take medicine, I always feel like something is wrong.

Then there is the screening of talents. Tiegu has almost sorted it out, and Li Qi cannot put all the eggs in one basket, so they must be transferred.

It is best for scholars to live in the Iron Wall Fort in Iron Valley. First, the Iron Wall Fort has better defense and has a geographical advantage that is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

Second, Iron Wall Fort has a more advantageous geographical location and can quickly connect with other areas.

If it weren't for some problems with Shuijian's "reputation", Shuijian would be more central.

Thirdly, aren't magic schools built on high mountains, or deep in mountains and old forests? Otherwise, the quality would not be enough.

Night school teaching has already begun in areas under Li Qi's command, such as Monkey Island. Teaching counting, addition and subtraction within 100, etc. are all compulsory courses, as well as literacy, but it is not mandatory.

Go to work when you are older, otherwise it will be a waste of resources.

Of course, if someone wants to learn to change their destiny on their own, Li Qi will not stop him. People who work hard can gain a lot of favor from Li Qi.

Most people are resistant to learning. It may be new at first, but learning is something where it is difficult to get feedback in time.

You can make money by working hard, you can strengthen your body by training hard, and you can even work hard to pick up girls, but as long as you study and work hard, you won't be able to learn if you don't have enough brain power.

Without positive feedback, it is difficult for people to persist in learning.

In Li Qi's territory, talent is greater than hard work, because he really doesn't have many resources to let people spend more than ten years to study hard and go to work if there is no improvement in a few months. The territory has hundreds of thousands of mouths, etc. It is impossible for Li Qi to forcefully promote universal learning while eating.

My stomach is not full, so why should I be idealistic?

But for children, especially those who are unable to work, Li Qi makes learning semi-mandatory and starts training from an early age. As long as there are no intellectual problems, they can basically learn about the same. When they are teenagers and can work, one by one There is no problem in arithmetic or literacy.

The best of the best will be selected. Those with good brains or unique characteristics can be trained to become scholars, and those with spellcasting qualifications can be focused on training. In this way, the magic school based on the Iron Wall Castle is officially opened.

Reacher called it a "vocational school for professional magic and training of scholars and advanced technical personnel", or "Hogwarts" for short.
