Magus Tech (Technological Wizard)

night.

Laboratory, main laboratory.

Sitting down at the long experimental table in the laboratory, Richard took out the book he bought from the Taboo Bookstore and put it on the table.

After that, I took out the three previous books with the Black Spirit Empire logo and put them in one piece.

Of the three books, except for the duplicate, the remaining two are and.

It is a book mainly about the etiquette of various nobles. The number on the logo of the Black Spirit Empire is 34. In addition to etiquette, this book also involves some knowledge of family emblems, clothing, etc., which is much more ordinary in comparison.

After all, at least it is still a book related to wizards, ignoring the content of training male slaves, and telling a lot of useful magic tricks, it is purely a public book.

Even worse, it's a knightly novel, and the number on the Black Spirit Empire's logo is 11. The content is mainly about the entangled experiences of tall and mighty knights and noble ladies.

This kind of story has always been very popular in a world similar to the Middle Ages, and the story of the affair with the noble arrow and the story of the knight slaying the dragon are the most popular types, and are constantly spread by the bard. But the problem is, apart from the story, there is nothing related to the so-called Black Spirit Empire, let alone clues related to the secrets of the Black Spirit King and the White Stone Tower.

"11, 34." Richard arranged the books on the desktop in order of size from left to right, guessing the contents of the other numbered books.

"The number on the sign is 9." Richard picked up the book he got from the library of Baishi Gaota College, put it on the far left, and thought about the difference between the two numbers and why the content was so surprising.

"Could it be that the top 10 numbers are all wizard books, 11 to 20 are tool books. 20 to 30 are another type of books. 30 to 40 are useless fiction books." Richard Talking to himself, his eyes flashed slightly.

After speaking, Li Cha picked up the books he bought from the Forbidden Bookstore and put them to the far left, ready to stack them together.

Just as he was about to put it down, Li Cha saw a gap open on the last page of the book, subconsciously glanced at the numbers on the sign on the last page, and was suddenly stunned.

Then his eyes sharpened, and the movement of putting the book stopped.

"Huh?!" Li Cha said, eyebrows raised a little bit.

"Snapped!"

With a light sound, Richard put the book he bought from the Forbidden Bookstore on the table alone, and opened the last page completely. I saw the logo of the Black Spirit Empire above. Although it was a little vague, it was recognizable, and the number written on the mark was not 9 at all, but... 27.

27?

27!

For a moment, Richard suspected that he had bought a fake book, but quickly denied it. The taboo bookstore is so special, with many banned books on display, obviously there is a lot of support. Under this premise, it is unlikely to deliberately sell fake books.

This is equivalent to an aristocrat, who can collect taxes and make money in an upright manner, and does not need to do anything like theft or fraud, which damages his own reputation and makes little profit.

And the most important thing is that this book can make the simple ring worn on the finger heat, but the heating effect may be weak due to the poor preservation.

Then if this book with the number 27 is regarded as a book that is really related to the secret of the White Rock Tower and the secret of the Black Spirit King, what does it mean?

Richard thinks.

First of all, his previous conjecture that the number corresponds to the type of book is wrong - the number is obviously not to divide the type, but should carry more special information.

What would that be?

Why is the book number 27 the same as the book number 9? Is there any connection between these two numbers? It can't be because the number of the former is three times the number of the latter. Or, can't they be the same book because they are both divisible by the number 3?

In this case, the label 11, is a prime number. The label 34 of , is the product of 17 and 2,

17 is also a prime number...

After thinking for a long time, Li Cha rubbed his eyebrows and said, "It's a bit messy, it's really a bit messy. What is the relationship between 9 and 27, and why can they belong to the same..."

"Binary? Hexadecimal? Sexadecimal?"

"ASCII code?"

"Morse code?"

"..."

Richard was puzzled and felt that his current state was very similar to the way he visited the great scholar Suratis during the day, and Suratis could not answer the question of the thief's secret room.

It seems that everyone encounters difficulties sometimes, so...

Um? wait!

Li Cha suddenly raised his head, stared at the empty air with burning eyes, then stretched out his hand, raised a finger, and swiped meaninglessly in the air.

While swiping, he muttered to himself, as if he was hallucinating: "Back, back, keep back!"

This is the feeling of a moment when Li Cha was trying to find a lot of thoughts and having a flash of inspiration.

"Back, back, back..."

"Stop! Right here, stop!"

Richard's fingers stopped in mid-air.

"Visit the great scholar? The problem of the great scholar Surates? The problem?"

Richard's eyes flickered, and he looked at the two books with different numbers, and he had a guess in his heart - a guess that was somewhat unacceptable, but could explain everything in a clever way.

"In this case, we must find more corresponding books handed down from the Black Spirit Empire to verify. In this case, we must go to the Forbidden Book House once and enter the interior.

Going back now is a little too anxious, and the test must be handled with caution. Then... just wait for the next big underground market to open, and then go, that is, three days later..." Li Cha muttered to himself and made a plan.

After finishing the matter of the book, Li Cha was relieved, let out a sigh of relief, then cleaned up the desktop, and started to work on the magic pattern.

As before, the magic pattern research conducted by Richard is mainly to decipher the magic pattern on the magic pattern spell items that were auctioned from the auction house.

The magic pattern of the "paralysis ring" has been cracked before, and this time it is about to crack the magic pattern of the frozen bracelet.

Lighted the candle, adjusted the light intensity, took out the papyrus scroll, everything was ready, and Richard moved his hand.

After that, Li Cha spent a night of work to complete the crack.

One day later, in the night, Richard cracked again, cracking the magic pattern of the Venom pendant, and it took a whole night to succeed.

In the night two days later, Richard spent one night trying to improve the magic pattern of the cracked paralysis ring, frozen bracelet and venom pendant.

Three nights later, Li Cha spent one night erasing the original magic pattern on the paralysis ring, and then painted the three cracked and improved magic patterns on it.

In a flash, it was the night four days later—the day when the big underground market opened again.
