I have a Synthesizer

“The Thinker's Mark has been achieved, Klein. From this moment on, you are a member of the Jay Society.

I know your doubts; not all new members have their contracts concluded by me.

I just wanted to meet you, and of course, let you meet me. After all, we father and son rarely get to see each other.”

Klein smiled at this moment. His cheap old man was a leader here. He wondered if he could benefit from being the son of a high-ranking official.

“So, Father, what do I need to do here, what obligations must I fulfill?”

Esmond waved his hand, signaling Klein not to rush, and took out a small bag from the drawer, handing it to Klein.

“Well, here, take this first, Klein. Open it, take a look, and then keep it safe.”

Klein opened the small bag, inside were 5 special coins.

The appearance of the coins was completely different from the currency of Terella. They were covered with magical patterns and shimmered with obvious magical radiance.

【Coin (Oddity)】

Effect: Unknown.

Introduction: Unknown.

Klein was "shocked" once again.

These coins were actually oddities, and each one was. Were they the currency used here? Using oddities as currency, what a grand gesture.

“This thing is called a Knowledge Token, and it can be used at the Jay Society headquarters or any of its branches.

The token has a wide range of uses: exchanging for knowledge, technology, abilities, resources, hiring others, all can be done with it.

Of course, you can also trade with other Jay Society members, but this thing only circulates within the Jay Society.”

Klein pondered whether this thing could be forged. Even as he thought of copying it, Esmond dispelled the idea.

This kind of internally circulating token is the foundation of every society and organization's cohesion.”

Klein nodded. This approach was actually similar to the points system of some game guilds.

Exclusive currency could indeed increase cohesion, because this currency could not be used anywhere other than within the organization.

“Then how do I get tokens?”

“Completing Jay Society tasks, or rather, requests, will earn you Knowledge Tokens.

You are just an ordinary researcher in the Jay Society. The basic requirements for researchers are very low.

Within six months, you must complete at least 6 tasks or requests. If you need to go into secluded cultivation for a long time, it's best to report it in advance.

You can complete 6 tasks within a month and then rest for a few months. This is allowed.

If you want to leave the Jay Society, you need to sign a curse contract with the Jay Society, but don't worry, the level of the curse is definitely sufficient.

This curse basically guarantees that you will not violate the contents of the contract.

If you defect directly from the Jay Society, you will be hunted down by other members of the Jay Society.

That's basically the situation. As for what to do specifically in the Jay Society, what to learn, you'll have to familiarize yourself with that yourself.”

Klein listened carefully, nodded, then put away the tokens, stood up, and got up.

“I understand. Then, Father, if there's nothing else, I'll leave first.”

Esmond stopped Klein.

“What? Don't you want to chat with your father?”

Klein stopped awkwardly. It wasn't that he didn't want to chat, but he didn't know what to talk about with Esmond.

Although he had been in this world for almost a year, Klein had only had a few real interactions with his father, Esmond.

Moreover, thinking of the dormitory manager John's words, Klein would inexplicably develop some resistance to Esmond.

Someone even more powerful than John, a space ability expert, someone John directly admitted was inferior to him.

How could he be the so-called useless professor? Father, was he also hiding his strength?

Esmond seemed to see Klein's awkwardness and waved his hand with a smile.

“Forget it, go ahead.”

“Yes, Father.”

…

After Klein closed the door, Esmond returned to the window.

From his angle, he could see a group of magic teams conducting some kind of biological research.

Esmond tapped the window sill, looking at the humanoid biological research being conducted below, and said in a low voice.

“No magic pool, and the magic fluctuations are very weak. Well hidden.

Klein, both are from ancient ruins, what exactly is the difference between you and Joe?”

…

Klein walked downstairs. He really didn't know what he should do now, or where he should go.

Unlike other organizations with clear requirements, Esmond, apart from asking him to complete the necessary tasks, didn't have any specific requirements for refining potions.

The situation he had originally expected, where someone would exploit him and ask him to refine mongoose or ethereal potions, didn't occur.

“Regarding being exploited by organizations and societies, am I overthinking it? With the effects of the ethereal potion, it's impossible for mages to not react.

Is it because of my father?”

This doubt made Klein feel that his sense of existence had diminished a lot.

Just as he walked out of the stairs, Klein noticed Lance standing not far away, probably waiting for him.

Seeming to hear Klein's footsteps, Lance turned his head.

“Klein, now, we've become society members.”

“Yes, Senior Lance, what should I do now?”

At this moment, Lance's tone and expression changed slightly.

“Klein, now, the relationship between us is different.

In the Jay Society, if you want to get something, you have to give something. Everyone in the Jay Society values equivalent exchange.

If you need my help and guidance, then please give me a token.”

Klein was stunned for a moment. Was it really this realistic? But he wasn't from this era, and his acceptance and adaptability were quite strong.

He didn't have any aversion to this kind of equivalent exchange model, so he took out a token and handed it to Lance.

Lance's eyes flickered slightly, and he reminded him.

“Klein, I'm surprised that you can accept this change so quickly.

But do you know the specific value of such a token?

As a member of the Jay Society, you must have an accurate concept of value.”

Klein didn't care. He had his own confidence and wasn't afraid of being intimidated.

Having fought so many years online, he had long seen a lot.

“Oh, is it very valuable? I'm not very clear.”

“Such a token can be exchanged for a complete series of first or second-tier magic details, or ten third-tier magic details.

By details, I mean every aspect of the magic, from research direction, origin, model, magic patterns, spells, usage, optimization, all methods are available.

Not only that, but secrets, secret techniques, forbidden magic, materials, recipes, potions, can all be exchanged with tokens. The value of the tokens is beyond your imagination.”

“Oh, then I'll save them for later.”

Klein shrugged, his expression still indifferent.
