Chapter 307 The Desperate Genius

There is no doubt that Schopenhauer failed in using utopian alchemy to create substances and elements that did not exist in the real world.

Don’t get me wrong, he didn’t fail to verify fantasy alchemy, it was just that he failed to create substances or elements that did not exist in the real world described by Purficott.

Through fantasy alchemy, he created a new alloy material that he had always envisioned.

This material is a new type of material that Schopenhauer is still conceiving and imagining. It has higher strength than steel, but is lighter than wood. It is Schopenhauer's plan to use it as a stepping stone to become a formal academician of the Royal Academy of Sciences. .

According to his original estimate, he should spend another three to seven years completing this research after spending five years continuing to research and study.

Then, through fantasy alchemy, he created this material that was still under his own conception.

This was no different from the material he imagined, but the entire refining process was completely different from what he understood and imagined. It could even be said to be completely opposite.

"It's unbelievable. Why does this work?" Schopenhauer could no longer maintain his expression and proper behavior, and seemed very out of sorts.

The other alchemists around him didn't think he was rude, because their behavior was even worse.

Born in such a family, Schopenhauer was not a mediocre person lying under the shadow of his ancestors.

Only a few celebrated the advancement of alchemy.

But even so, these "incompetent people" who still occupy high positions in the academic world still have to pretend that they are very capable and can achieve results quickly even in the field of fantasy alchemy.

On the contrary, Schopenhauer, who had shown his talents and abilities since childhood, was not only nurtured by his family, but he himself also worked very hard.

Because once they can't show such a look, they will be eliminated by this era really quickly.

He was born into a family of alchemists. His family has been a famous alchemist since his great-grandfather. His family's knowledge has been passed down for four generations and is enough to easily turn any ordinary person with a talent above the passing line into a person with outstanding abilities. The alchemist.

There were some people cheering with joy, but most of them were admirers of Perfectcott, and the cheers were just to flatter the Northern Lord.

After all, although they are incompetent, they are not ignorant. They can still clearly understand the changes and impacts that fantasy alchemy can bring to the world.

Even if they have clearly realized that they are the kind of incompetent people who are stuck in the shackles of reality as Perficott said.

There were some who were furious, but on this occasion they could only suppress their anger, and they also had to echo and flatter, praising Perficott for ushering in a new era of alchemy.

Among all people, Schopenhauer was undoubtedly the one who suffered the strongest impact.

Although there is a gap between him and the Brandlis couple who became famous ten years before him, Schopenhauer always believed that the difference between him and him was only the accumulation of time, not the gap in ability and knowledge.

He believes that as long as he grows up step by step, he will soon reach the position that the Brandlis achieved ten years ago and achieve the same achievements as them.

He has always believed so, and his growth trajectory has given him such confidence that he can succeed. Just like he believed that he would become a formal academician of the Royal Academy of Sciences when he was forty years old.

But when Perfection came into being, the name Perfection Brandless eclipsed all the geniuses of her generation.

That was a legendary figure who had already begun to change history and promote the course of the world at the age of fourteen. He even directly relied on his own abilities to seal territories and become the first dragon slayer and holder of the Philosopher's Stone in hundreds of years.

Even among those absurd novels, her deeds are the most outrageous.

If she was just a fictional character, Schopenhauer would only smile disdainfully, thinking that the author's fantasy and obscenity were too much.

But when such a character is a real person and a contemporary of himself, it is nothing less than nightmare news for someone like Schopenhauer who considers himself a genius.

Because Purficott's existence made him clearly realize that he was a genius, but he was just an ordinary genius, a genius in the ordinary sense.

And Purficott? She is an unparalleled genius, a genius for geniuses.

The reason why she is called a genius is because genius is the only adjective, not because she only has so many talents.

Schopenhauer looked at Perfectcourt's manuscript in front of him, as if he were looking at a mountain that he could never climb. He tried to raise his head, but he could never see where the top of the mountain was.

Even if he climbed hard, he felt that when he really stood on the top of the mountain, Purficott would only stand on the top of a higher mountain than him and look down on him, and there was no possibility for him to catch up.

This is the disadvantage of having an overly clear understanding of one's own strength. Schopenhauer cannot imagine himself surpassing Perfectcourt.

He couldn't even imagine himself catching up with her, because he had a clear understanding of his abilities and he couldn't do it.

He could not break the existing theoretical system of alchemy at the age of fourteen, create a brand new theoretical system, and create fantasy alchemy outside of real alchemy.

It's like everyone is climbing a mountain together. Schopenhauer and other alchemists are just following the path opened by their predecessors, while Perficott has opened up another path by herself, and she has to be ahead of them. Climb to the top of the mountain.

This gap may not be so obvious to others. After all, the gap between a mediocre person and an ordinary genius is already so obvious. How can he feel the abyss-like gap between himself and Perfect Court?
To put it bluntly, the gap between a mediocre person and an ordinary genius is far smaller than the gap between an ordinary genius and Perfect Court. A mediocre person can't even see where the boundary of the gap between him and Perfect Court is.

But for someone like Schopenhauer, who was a genius in his own right and had a clear understanding of himself, this gap was so despairing.

As the saying goes, "The more you know, the more you feel your ignorance."

At this moment, Schopenhauer just wanted to say: "The more you know, the more you can feel what a desperate peak you are facing."

That is so unattainable that even if you look up at her back, you have to do your best.
