Lando took out a black communicator, which was given to him by Odo after returning from the world of Astraea. It is said that he can be contacted at any time as long as he is in the empire.
He placed the contact device on the open space in front of him, and as Lando opened it, a chaotic picture was projected above it.
After a while, the picture suddenly became clear and clear, and Lando saw the expressionless face of his mentor Odo!
The scene was spinning for a while, and it seemed that Odo had thrown the communicator onto the table next to him.
Lando also saw clearly the scene on the other side of Teacher Odo.
He was wearing a gorgeous and complicated black robe, with stars of different colors flashing on the robe. At this time, the instructor was lying on a large chair with an expressionless face.
The background of the picture is a huge office. From Lando's perspective, he can see that both sides are filled with bookshelves. Each of the books on the bookshelves exudes a dazzling or dim light, and many of them are even bound by chains.
It looks like it can't be opened easily.
As soon as Otto grabbed it, a document would fall into his hands. He glanced at it briefly, gave an evaluation, and then threw it away. The document would fly out of Lando's sight, as if it would come back.
Get to where you should be.
"turn down!"
"This plan won't work!"
“(__)(-.-)(~O~)……(-.-)! (Cheer up!)”
"Whose proposal is this? How did it get to me? Take it back and let them discuss it again!"
"Do those old guys from the Arcane Council want to kill me?!"
Throwing the document in his hand out, Odo finally stopped what he was doing temporarily, rolled his eyes and said feebly to Lando: "What's the matter?"
Seeing that his mentor looked uninspired, Lando suddenly felt that his idea was really right. Reporting his progress during this period to mentor Otto would definitely make him happy!
"Teacher, I have read all the space-related books you gave me." Lando said respectfully.
"Oh, it's not bad. It took me a week to fully understand those books back then. I didn't expect that it only took you two months to read them much faster than I expected. You are considered a genius among ordinary people!"
Otto said casually.
Lando:???!!!
Why is it different from what I expected?! Did I fail to meet the instructor’s expectations?
"Tutor, I would like to ask about the next step of study plan." Lando said with some frustration.
Otto remained calm and calm, as if Lando's small achievements were not worth mentioning.
"What you have to do now is to establish spatial awareness. Judging from your current progress, it may take one or two months, maybe one or two weeks. When you have established your own spatial awareness, you can consider what to learn next.
"I think I only used the knowledge of your mentor back then..." Otto suddenly paused and asked, "You probably haven't established spatial awareness yet, right?"
"Teacher, my spatial perception has been established." Lando said with a wink.
"...Well" Otto responded and asked casually: "How long did you use it?"
Lando thought for a moment and said hesitantly: "About an hour. I was just having fun and didn't pay attention to the time."
Otto:......
Seeing that his mentor was a little silent, Lando called out in a low voice: "Mentor? Mentor?! Is there any problem?"
"No problem, you did a good job. It seems that you do have some talent in space, although there is still a gap between you and me. Even when you tutored me, it took me... half an hour, but you can complete it in an hour.
, it has exceeded my expectations, not bad, not bad!”
Lando was a little happy to receive praise from his instructor, and he was looking forward to the next step of his study plan.
Otto sat up straight, pushed the communicator back, put one hand on the table and leaned on his chin and said: "Now that the spatial perception is completed, it means that you have mastered the basic knowledge quite well.
Going deeper will reveal the confidential knowledge of each school."
"Our Silver Tower School's attainments in space arcana are not outstanding, and I learned a lot of space knowledge from other schools. Because of the confidentiality contract, I can't teach it to you, and I study it myself.
Those are basically applications based on talent, which are too high-end for you now and may not be applicable."
"Actually, the best place for you to study is in the Ancient School, where you can have access to the most comprehensive knowledge related to space arcana."
Lando said with some disappointment: "Doesn't it mean that I have to wait until I come back from the special laboratory and enter the ancient school of thought through the exchange student system?"
Otto was also a little speechless, because this was what he had planned. The only thing he didn't expect was that Lando's progress was so much faster!
"Teacher, is there no other way?" For Lando, even if he temporarily puts down the talent of [Skywalker (Purple)], he still has many other research projects, but the best improvement can be achieved in a short period of time.
The only one with his own strength is this talent.
Otto thought for a moment and said, "Actually, there are no other ways."
Lando's eyes once again showed a look of anticipation.
"For us arcanists, research and learning are equally important. If we can find the right place, the efficiency of research will not be lower than learning existing knowledge. And compared to learning, the results of arcanists' own research are
It should be more suitable for you."
Lando nodded.
"There is a region in the empire called the Tide Land. This tide is not a sea tide, but a space tide. The Tide Land is also a holy place for studying space arcana, and it is also the main production base for Sky-Suppressing Grass."
"What does the mentor mean by asking me to go there to study space arcana?" Lando thought thoughtfully.
"Yes, I am now compiling a list of space knowledge that I know that does not involve confidentiality contracts and the relevant knowledge of the Silver Tower for you. When you get there, you can learn this knowledge while trying to research some of your own stuff and see.
Whatever the effect is, let’s tentatively wait for... a month. If the effect is not good, just quit. Don’t waste time. After all, studying space arcana still depends on talent. If the talent is not strong..."
Otto's words suddenly stopped. He thought that it only took Lando an hour to establish spatial awareness, and then he changed his words and said: "Anyway, you should try it first. If you can study the space suitable for your own talents like your mentor and me.
Arcana is also a good harvest!"
"Yes, mentor!"
Looking at the image that returned to chaos in front of him, a look of confusion slowly appeared on Odo's face: "As a disciple, I shouldn't have had space talents before, right? It's really reasonable to be able to get started with space arcana so quickly just by relying on purple qualifications.
?"
At this time, the door of the room suddenly opened, and two handsome assistants, a man and a woman, who looked as good as Lando's, came in. Each of them held a small stack of documents and put them on his desk under Otto's dull eyes. At the same time, the woman
The assistant waved, and two large stacks of two-meter-high documents placed on the table flew into her hands, but they turned into a small stack when she took them.
The male assistant looked at the remaining documents on the table and frowned and said: "Mr. Odo, your efficiency is too low. Please temporarily cut off contact with the outside world and concentrate on correcting the documents. This is related to the normal operation of the empire!"
Otto nodded mechanically, and then the two assistants showed satisfaction and exited the Speaker's office.
With a tap of his finger, one of the two stacks of documents that had just been delivered suddenly exploded and turned into a two-meter-high pile of documents. He waved, took one and looked down.
"Grand Arcanist Gilder Melton has successfully developed a fruit tree that can produce delicious food. In order to study animals that can cook themselves delicious meals, he hopes to allocate more research resources and experimental stars."
Otto's eyes twitched and he suddenly threw the document on the desk.
"Does this have anything to do with whether the empire can function normally?!"
Finally, Otto fell softly on the large seat, his eyes distracted.
"Reject it and let Grand Arcanist Gilder Melton come up with more valuable results!"
"..."
…………
After receiving the guidance from his mentor, Lando felt excited and began to apply for permission to go to the Tidelands.
This is very simple, just spend enough credits, and the rest of the college will help take care of everything.
Yinhua, the intelligent core of the college, is very efficient. Lando just applied. In just a few minutes, Yinhua issued the permit to Lando. As Odo said, he applied for it for a month first.
, if you feel you have gained well by then, you can continue to apply to stay.
Instead of going directly, I first read and replied to the messages during this period one by one. There was nothing important. I went to Old Moore's place for a good meal and told him about leaving the college again.
Old Moore has become accustomed to this. Other arcanists studying in the academy may not be able to travel once a year except for mission requirements. Lando, on the other hand, cannot stay in the academy for more than a few days throughout the year.
In the afternoon, Lando left through the academy's teleportation array. During the process, he passed through a crossroads and transferred to another transit star named Garel, and then directly arrived at Damien, the world closest to the Tidelands.
The two transit stars and Damien are both distinctive worlds, but Lando's interest was obviously not there, so he didn't particularly stop there.
By the way, it is worth mentioning that when Lando went to the Black Territory, he rented the airship from Pres and returned it when he returned to the academy. Although he felt that the steward and the waitress were a little too enthusiastic at the time, he did not care.
.
Now he wants to go to the Tidal Land without renting a spaceship, because this is inside the empire, and the security conditions are naturally good. The Tidal Land is also an area rich in sky-suppressing grass, which leads to the departure from Dami.
Well, shipping to the Tidelands is quite developed.
Lando can just take a direct airship at will, and he doesn't have to worry about being trapped in a certain world because there is no airship like in the Black Domain.
Lando came to the ticket window, showed the other party the proof of his application, and successfully bought the ticket to the Tideland.
I casually strolled around the area and bought some special snacks, which didn't feel too good. After passing the time for a short while, Lando's spaceship prompted me to check in and board the ship.
The spaceship is not big, and can only hold a few dozen people. By the time Lando arrives, it is almost full. Looking around, although there are some non-human races among the passengers, most of them are humanoid creatures. The only comparison
The special one is a chimpanzee wearing a white combat uniform.
The chimpanzee is a big and strong person, and one chimpanzee can occupy the seat of two people. Of course, it also took out two tickets when checking the tickets. The spacecraft staff are accustomed to this kind of thing.
As if noticing Lando's gaze on it, the chimpanzee turned his head and looked at Lando, his eyes clear and bright, which seemed to contain extraordinary wisdom.
The chimpanzee paid no attention to Lando's rude surprise, but smiled and nodded at him calmly.
This made Lando recover from his surprise, smiled slightly awkwardly, and quickly looked away.
The journey was calm and the spaceship quickly reached its destination.
The so-called Tideland originally originated from the abnormal space tidal fluctuations in this area, which affected a wide range of areas. The empire once sent a great arcanist to investigate. Although the final results were not announced, the establishment of the Tideland by the Empire has already explained
The place is harmless.
From a long distance on the spacecraft, you can see dozens of creations that look like the Dyson rings in Lando's previous life concept, covering a huge area. Each Dyson ring has its own independent trajectory. They do not interfere with each other, and generally do not interfere with each other.
The area facing the inside is the research institution and training ground, while the outside layer is the leisure and residential area.
The spaceship docked at one of the Dyson rings. As soon as Lando got off the spacecraft, a requested connection was passed to Xiao Hui through the public network.
Lando naturally knew that this was the management and control intelligence core here. After connecting, he sent his identity certificate and application certificate to the other party. The management and control intelligence core slipped away after leaving a dry "Have a nice day".
Bad review! Lando curled his lips and thought.
The next step is to rent a training room and start your own research.
Just as Lando was thinking this, a tall figure appeared next to him.
"First time coming to Tideland?" A low and gentle voice sounded.
Turning around, he saw that it was the chimpanzee in combat uniform on the spaceship.
Lando felt a little wary in his heart, and said with a smile: "Well, I want to come here to study the arcana of space, but I don't know where to go."
The chimpanzee nodded and fiddled with the smart core on his wrist. Soon Lando received a prompt that a file was transmitted, and he chose to receive it.
This is a topographic map of the Dyson ring where he is now. One of the research institutes is the most detailed description of the area around the center, and the information becomes less and less as you move outward.
Well, it's much easier to use than the maps on the public network.
"The one in the center is my research institute. If you encounter any trouble here, you can come to me. Of course, it will only be the kind that is not particularly difficult."
After saying that, the chimpanzee turned and left. Looking in the direction, it was exactly where the research institute marked on the map was.
A good guy? Or does he have an ulterior motive?!
Seeing the other party walking away, Lando asked aloud: "My name is Lando, I still don't know what your name is?"
