The first thousand three hundred and eighty-six chapters teahouse half-day leisure
I talked a lot with Anseth about void navigation, especially some details on the ships of the Ancestor Fleet back then, such as how they used limited technology to maintain a long-lasting order field strong enough to ensure the large-scale Ark.
The fleet can survive in the void for a long time, in addition to the ecological environment and material circulation on the Ark - because the ancestors did not have the technology to create materials, the Ark's supplies are limited. I am very curious about the earliest materials in the Xiling Civilization.
What does a self-circulating system look like? I may not understand the actual technical details, but Ansers himself is not a scientist, so he told me what happened on the spacecraft from the perspective of a captain and a layman.
For me, it was that year, but for Anseth, it happened "more than a month ago".
It can be seen that only these topics can really arouse the ancestor's interest. Other than that, things like the prospects of civilization, the empire's political system, and the void pattern do not interest him at all. This is normal, after all, Ansers
He spent most of his life on the Ark. He joined the spacecraft maintenance force after leaving the training center as a teenager and worked in more than ten positions. For decades, everything in his life revolved around the spacecraft. Ansers also
I have learned about the current power of the Empire from various channels. I know that the current Imperial starships only need a few breaths to complete the information offset of several months of those original arks (i.e., the "voyage" in the void). I know that they are stronger.
The Xiling Apostle can even survive alone in the void for a long time, and after the deification of the entire clan is completed, this void adaptability will even improve. He was amazed by the traversal network of the macro world, and was fascinated by the connection between the void quadrant and the teleportation of the divine world.
He was also very interested in other things like this. Some of these things he had heard of before, and some of them were mentioned by me for the first time today. The two technical experts, both of whom were neither very good at it, had a heated discussion for most of the day, and finally Anser
Si Po sighed with emotion: "These things were unheard of back then. Who knew the void was divided into quadrants at that time? No one knew what the connection was between the universe and the universe. We were all wandering around in a daze, no matter where we went.
Which. Our scientists have also guessed that there may be many worlds in the void, but no one has thought that they can set coordinates for them, and as long as they adjust the frequency of the order field, they can reach their destination in no time...
"
"It is not easy to study these things," I nodded, "especially in the early years when the foundation was laid. All research projects related to the void were very, very slow, and because the void was unpredictable. Whether many theories could be applied almost depended on luck.
.Before the Xiling Apostles could not live forever, a new type of navigator might even consume all the energy of several generations. They integrated the memories of the previous generation into their own databases from birth, and then spent their entire lives just to verify one thing.
If the two constants are correct, then condense your memory into a data disk and leave it to the next generation - this is how the original high-speed void shuttle was created."
"That's why I feel that I have no peace of mind when I am forced to live in amazement," Ansers smiled and poured himself tea. "One of the reasons is that I know that it is not easy for you to develop to this day. The Xiling people can only drop a seed.
The rest is your own business. And I am not the scientist who originally created the original body - I cannot be resurrected today, hundreds of millions of years later, to eat free rice just because of the work of another group of people hundreds of millions of years ago.
All this is just because I am a Xiling person."
"Long live understanding." I raised my cup to greet him with tea instead of wine. I said that this special tea from the elves tastes really good and is quite magical: it tastes 30% like tea and 60% like juice.
One part has a sweet and bitter taste like tree sap, which is completely different from the taste of ordinary tea. After drinking it, you can vaguely feel a kind of beneficial energy spreading in the body: if an ordinary person drinks this thing
The feeling should be more obvious. I originally thought this was something similar to blended tea, but it turned out that there was only a small light green leaf in the teapot. It seemed that this could only be a specialty of the elves in a certain world.
At this time, the elf girl who had just served tea happened to be walking by, so I stopped her and said, "Where did your tea come from? Is it a specialty of your world? It tastes good."
The elf girl was very happy when she heard the customer's compliments. But she still shook her head: "It's not from our Elsawen elves, it's something that the store manager recently wholesaled from a chamber of commerce called Fialli Void Consortium. It's said to be from living things.
It is collected from the nursery protected by the power of the goddess, and then carefully processed for three days and three nights to make it."
"Oh... I see, you can do your business," I nodded. I didn't expect that the vendor queen would get involved in the non-staple food industry so quickly and get involved with the church. Such amazing business power is really impressive.
People were amazed. Thinking of this, I connected the communication with Phyllis, "Hey, Phyllis, business is booming."
"Haha? So it's His Majesty the Emperor?" Phyllis seemed to be not used to the spiritual communication network. Although the communication was connected, she didn't know who was calling. After a moment of reaction, she exclaimed, "Is there something wrong, Your Majesty? Investment and financial management.
Or is it information trading? Hiring murderers is not something I do recently. Emotional counseling is possible, but the current service is limited to chatting with me..."
The more I listen to it, the more I sound like that old pirate dealer - but the scale of Felice's business is much larger than that of Cicaro.
"Don't go too far - I heard that you are in the tea business recently? Or is it a tea business in cooperation with the church?" I said in my mind while sipping the tea. There was a reason why I called the hawker queen specifically for a cup of tea.
: Sandora likes to drink tea. If there are good products from the Feiyali Consortium, can I buy it directly from them?
But she didn't expect that after asking this question, Phyllis's voice suddenly became panicked, and then she laughed awkwardly: "Ah, ah ha, it's just a small fight, it's not cooperation with the church or anything..."
I suddenly had an ominous premonition: "...To be honest, what exactly are the tea leaves that you claim to have collected from the goddess nursery?"
Phyllis rambled on in an attempt to cover it up, but my curiosity had already aroused. How could I let it go so easily? After some questioning, the other party finally answered like a mosquito: "...Isn't there a lawn under the World Tree..."
I suddenly sprayed all the tea in my mouth: "What?!"
"This is not a scam to consumers," Phyllis quickly explained. "It sounds unpleasant to say, but can't you just pick up bricks from around the goddess temple and use them as earthshaking seals! Those grasses squeezed into juice can cure at least thirty
Various diseases..."
I tried to calm down and thought so. But more curiosity came up soon after: "Leave aside the issue of raw materials, how did you go in and pull the weeds? The vegetation around the temple is guarded by church knights and fighting monks.
."
Phyllis answered very proudly: "Doing business requires a lot of brains - we have a yard maintenance project, we charge very cheaply by the square meter to mow lawns, we even offer discounts for church services, and we mow all the lawns around the Tree of Life."
I only collected over two thousand from them, it was fast and clean, and..." At this point, Phyllis finally reacted: "Hey, Your Majesty, you have to believe that I am dedicating myself to religious causes and consumer rights.
A lifelong heart for boxing..."
I:"……"
Otherwise, it makes sense for some people to get rich. You see, this business talent is not possessed by ordinary people. Poor those stubborn archbishops in the temple. They were deceived and had to pay more than two thousand at a time, and you can't even say that the Philippines
Liz is operating illegally. This is a strategy, you know? Do you want to tell Lilina about this? With the abilities of these two people, they will definitely make each other crazy.
But considering that they are more likely to play with the Shadow City until everything goes crazy, I think it’s better to forget about it.
Anyway, after getting in touch with that hawker queen, I realized one thing: I might not be able to be a businessman. I can’t live with my conscience...
At this time, I noticed that someone was looking at me across from me, and I suddenly remembered the existence of Ansers. Moreover, my "poof" just now must have scared the other person. I waved to my ancestor awkwardly: "It's okay, I just said
An acquaintance made a phone call and was a little overjoyed to find out that she was suffering from a serious illness..."
Of course, Ansers didn't take this seriously, but he was very enthusiastic about pouring me tea: "This is a little bit..."
I quickly waved my hand to interrupt him: "No, no, no..."
It was getting late at this time, although I thought I could stay outside for a while. Ansers had to say goodbye because he was worried about work. Knowing his character, I naturally stopped trying to stay, and just called him a few more times.
I asked him to pack the snacks and bring them to the other ancestors. After Ansers was escorted away by several royal guards, I followed him out of the teahouse and prepared to go home. But as soon as I lifted my legs, I saw an acquaintance walking this way.
Come here...oh, it's here.
It was a girl who looked to be under twenty years old. She was very beautiful. Her upper body was wearing something with no visible texture. It seemed to be a cool waistcoat made of seaweed and some kind of fish leather. She looked youthful and attractive, but her lower body was covered in a bright strip of clothing.
She has a fish tail, with bows and shiny trinkets hanging on her tail. The main way she moves forward is by jumping, so from a distance I can hear the sound of her tail slapping on the ground.
This is an old acquaintance, the Goodwill Ambassador of the Salvation Army in Shadow City, the representative of the Shadow City Water Quality Protection Association, and the spokesperson of the "Be Kind to Marine Animals and Protect Ecological Balance" organization, Isanna, a... a mermaid.
But even though she is an acquaintance, I haven't seen her for a long time - this fish girl usually lives in the lake of Avalon, and her main office is in the moat. I am generally not good at swimming, so I rarely visit her.
Behind Isana were two white-bearded old men wearing purple starry mage robes. Both of them looked like senior magic scholars. Although the combination of two old men and a mermaid princess looked quite awkward, but
The three of them are obviously together.
The three people from Li Laoyuan saw me. The reaction of the two old mages was that they were stunned. Isana immediately looked happy, and then... jumped hard this way. Seeing her excited and strenuous look, I
They were all exhausted for her, so they quickly took two steps forward to meet the mermaid girl: "Hey, Isana, long time no see - by the way, aren't you a mage? Just give yourself a floating wind flash spell.
Save yourself the trouble, doesn’t your tail hurt?”
"I'm trying to lose weight and need to exercise," Isana replied briskly, bouncing on the spot twice to maintain her balance. "I've gained a little weight recently, and my tail has become thicker."
I especially want to remind her that her tail is thick because it was swollen from jumping on the ground...
"Why do you have time to go ashore today?" I supported the mermaid who was struggling to stand on the ground and looked shaky, "Who are these two?"
"I'm going to school to give a speech to promote the importance of rational development of marine resources and environmental protection of the ocean floor," Isana replied. I knew that this energetic mermaid princess participated in a lot of unknown marine conservation organizations, so I didn't
Unexpected. Then she pointed to the two old mages and scholars behind her, "These are two old seniors whom I met when I went on a mission to another world. They are the most respected magic masters in that world - I just happened to meet them in school.
They went out for a walk together."
"I don't dare to mention the word "grandmaster" here," the old mage who looked older (that is, with a longer beard) waved his hands hurriedly, "We are just students studying now. Are you... His Majesty the Emperor?"
"Ha, easy to talk to, no need to be polite in private." I shook hands with the two old men, knowing that these were scholars from another world who had recently come to Shadow City to study. Despite their gray-haired appearance, they were actually at the Military Academy.
By the way, transfer students like this who look like they can be the fathers of all the teachers and students in the school can be seen everywhere. Little Paopao has a classmate who is an old man with a beard longer than Gandalf. He is in the first grade of elementary school. He is also the leader of the daily team.
…
"Your Majesty, you are also out shopping, right?" Isana pulled my arm enthusiastically, "There happens to be a teahouse opened by the elves here. The specialty tea of the elves in Aissawen is a good thing. Let's go together.
,I’m treating you today…”
"Wait..." I was just about to say that I had just come out of there. This enthusiastic mermaid princess skipped forward on her own. I shrugged and could only follow. The two old mages also followed a little cautiously.
Behind us. Within a few minutes of leaving the teahouse, I sat back down where I had just been. Several elf waiters had particularly surprised expressions on their faces.
I waved my hands to them: "Haha, let's try it again..."
"Your Majesty, have you been here?" Isana asked curiously.
"Well...according to the last time I came here, it hasn't been that long..." I smiled dryly and nodded. In order to prevent the mermaid girl from being embarrassed, I quickly changed the subject, "Just order whatever you want, but don't order the temple special xxx
,I'm allergic."
Isana gave me a confused look. She probably didn’t understand why someone would be allergic to something given by God, but she probably thought that the Xiling Apostle himself was a kind of God. So she didn’t pursue it and just asked for it.
With two pots of tea and a few snacks, I looked at what she ordered and felt relieved: they were all specialties of the Essawen elves, and they should not be grass...
"Drinking tea is good for your health." After waiting for the tea to come, Isana poured herself a cup first, touched it with her lips carefully, and immediately grinned, "Oh, it's so hot - actually, I never knew that tea was
It can be brewed and drunk. Although we have also obtained tea from the mainland, we always eat it directly as snacks..."
I thought about it and felt that the first person to sell tea to mermaids might have been a relative of Sicaro - can you make tea at the bottom of the sea?! No wonder Isana always thought that tea is for eating directly and grows in sea water.
As a grown-up, she had no concept of "drinks" at all...
The two old mages sat across from Isana and I, looking a little reserved. I guessed that they had been in Shadow City not long ago, and they didn’t know much about the local customs and customs. They had never met the First Family in groups to cook food a few times.
The grand scene of the market: After meeting them a few times, they should calm down. I chatted with the two old men for a few words to ease the atmosphere, but in the end they were not familiar with each other and there was not much to talk about, so I asked Isana again about the ocean.
Ecological protection. The latter introduced to me in detail the various public welfare activities she has participated in recently, especially the call she personally launched, which was signed by aquatic intelligent races from twelve worlds and published the "Aquatic Race Rights Initiative"
"Book", the specific content is the issue of restricting all kinds of naked swimming and urinating and defecating on the river bank - this fish's spare time life is really colorful.
"By the way, Grandpa Lucan, has the issue you discussed with Grandpa Duncan come to an end?" Isana said and suddenly thought of something else. She looked up at the two old mages across the table, and then she
He explained to me, "They are two scholars who have been arguing over an issue recently. They are both stubborn and determined not to look at the correct answer in the imperial database and have to deduce it by themselves."
I was immediately in awe and deeply interested: these two old men looked like the kind of old academic figures who have profound attainments in the field of magic. Such people may be very stubborn, but their attitude in academic research is absolutely impossible to criticize and cannot be criticized.
Knowing what problems they encountered in the Imperial Military Academy, they are still quite capable at such a young age. Could it be advanced arcana? Or natural magic? Or alchemical theory?
Then I saw the old man with a long beard smiling and shaking his head: "I think it is feasible to add an object with infinite mass in an open space to distort and close a part of the space. According to gravity,
Impact on space…”
Another old mage suddenly paused with the staff in his hand: "Your attitude towards this experiment is very lax, because you are not sure that the space where you conduct the experiment follows the ideal basic rules, and you do not limit the infinite mass of this object to have a finite
Volume, not to mention that the scope of application of general relativity is the third type of classical universe, as Einstein said well..."
Master Master No. 1 slapped the table: "You are so rigid in your thinking! We must have a flexible scientific attitude. It is possible to adjust various parameters and even definitions according to the experimental environment. Language does not necessarily have the only meaning, Bi Da
There is a famous saying of Golas..."
I:"……"
Seeing two old mages who looked like Ganfu and Dumbledore talking about theoretical physics, my worldview collapsed. Isana came over and explained in a low voice: "They reported it in school.
Science Department…”
At this time, the two master mages suddenly noticed that they were making too much noise and had attracted the attention of the surrounding tea guests. They immediately smiled awkwardly and discussed with each other: "Let's go back to discuss..." "Well, go back and discuss.
Bar……"
Isana smiled cheerfully, and as if she suddenly remembered something, she patted my arm: "That's right, His Majesty the Emperor, have you heard about the ghost ship?"
