Without Avril, life became busy again.
Hard work and research became Gong Hao's focus.
From the moment he took over Andrew's position, Gong Hao no longer followed Lancelot on hunting trips. At the same time, he no longer served as a recorder in the library.
To Gong Hao, these two jobs were no longer likely to bring him more benefits. In fact, he didn't even get involved in the management of the servants and focused on alchemy experiments.
Among all of Heinz's alchemy research, the progress of spatial magic was the slowest. This might have something to do with the fact that spatial magic was a top-notch magic. And the achievements that alchemists could achieve in the deepest field of magic were always limited.
This was Gong Hao's main topic at the moment.
He had to do his best to complete the research of the Teleportation Formation in the remaining time. Only then would he have the possibility of leaving freely.
However, this was clearly not easy.
Throughout history, there had been countless famous alchemists who had conducted experiments on spatial magic. Countless spatial mages and alchemists had thrown themselves into it, frantically trying to build a spatial passageway that could freely connect to various spatial locations, but the results were all failures.
It was not until 700 years ago that an alchemist named Boyd Waite successfully made his first storage accessory, which led to a glimmer of hope in the study of spatial magic alchemy. However, with the sudden death of Boyd Waite, this technology also disappeared. Not long after that, there were also people who completed various inventions, but the most famous one was still Elektra.
He was the first and only person to complete the teleportation array.
Similar to storage accessories and long-distance communication, the teleportation circle used powerful energy to open a space barrier and create a man-made space channel. Then, through this channel, it completed the transmission or storage of physical or information.
For Heinz, who had been studying this for a long time, it was not impossible to open a passage with powerful energy. After all, a space mage could do this. The real difficulty was how to maintain the passage.
This was something that neither magic nor alchemy could achieve.
This was like how Heinz had already made the propeller blades that could allow helicopters to fly, but he had never been able to solve the problem of the subsequent energy supply for the engine.
And this energy supply was needed to open the spatial barrier. The energy required was far greater than the energy needed to fly dozens of tons of steel.
In fact, Heinz could only do such experiments a few times a year because the consumption was too high.
This was also the reason why spatial magic had stagnated. The huge cost of experimenting was not something that anyone could afford.
Not long after Gong Hao accepted this new job, he realized that the development of these three technologies had stagnated because of the same reason,'energy support'. Almost all the other problems had been solved. The only problem that could not be solved was the problem of energy support.
This was the only test Gong Hao faced. As long as he could solve the problem of continuous energy support, all the problems would be solved immediately.
However, how should he solve this problem? Gong Hao once again fell into a long and difficult exploration.
——————————————————————
"Bang!" With a loud explosion, thick smoke billowed out of the window on the fifth floor of the Alchemy Tower.
Then, Gong Hao walked out with a dark expression on his charred face.
His robe was burned into holes, and he looked extremely miserable.
A few acolytes chuckled. Only the stiff puppet assistant mechanically brought a towel to Gong Hao to wipe his face.
These days, ever since Gong Hao immersed himself in alchemy experiments, such a thing had happened more than once.
Every time, Gong Hao would be blown out of the laboratory with a dirty face.
If he hadn't cultivated Combat Energy, become a Grade 2 Warrior, and had also cultivated wind magic, which allowed him to release an air shield, he would have been severely injured by the frequent explosions.
These days, he had become more and more proficient in using the Air Shield Spell.
"What's wrong? Failed again?" Andrew came down from upstairs and smiled at Gong Hao's embarrassment.
Gong Hao shook his head helplessly. This is really too depressing."
Andrew shook his hand." Hughie, I've said it before. You don't have to call me Lord anymore."”
"Other than that, I have no other way to express my respect to you. "I think without your support, I wouldn't be able to wear these clothes today and carry out my favorite experiment on the fifth floor of the Alchemy Tower.”
Andrew was very satisfied with Gong Hao's "respect". "I know you've been working very hard. You've been experimenting without rest these days. However, alchemy was never a career that could be accomplished overnight. It required patience and perseverance. It's good for you to rest. It can clear your mind and keep your thoughts active.”
"I don't know what else I can do other than work.”Gong Hao was confused.
Andrew laughed." Oh, Hughie. Your greatest strength is your focus, but your greatest weakness is also this. Why not go out for a walk? Today is the day the Freedom arrives. According to the rules, you should be delivering the goods.”
"Ah, Freedom." Gong Hao immediately realized that today was the day Freedom arrived. The hard work he had put in during this period of time had indeed made him forget the time.
"Alright, I'll go and prepare it now." he said.
The Liberty had arrived.
In the past twenty years, the one who received the Liberty had always been Andrew.
But now, he had become a young man who was not even fifteen years old.
Every time he saw Gong Hao, Chakly would feel that this youth was filled with incredible magic.
He had broken through the time limit that the servants could not survive on the island for more than a year.
He became an apprentice.
And now, he had become an assistant.
All of this was done in less than two years. Shuiglaire was completing the triple jump of his life at a flying speed, which made even Chakley, who had sent the boy, sigh.
Until now, he still remembered the crying face of the little boy Xiu Yi when he was about to leave his hometown. Now, he was standing in front of him in high spirits.
"30 Puppet Warriors, 20 Flesh Puppets, Undead Puppets, and Demon Spirits. The rest are in the box.”Gong Hao said politely to Caucasus.
"Shuiglaire, I heard that Master Heinz has entrusted you with the important task of researching Space Arrays?”Chakly didn't go to collect the goods. This kind of thing was done by his subordinates. Instead, he began to chat with Gong Hao enthusiastically.
"Yes, Lord Zakley. This is all due to the teacher's appreciation and nurturing.”
"You have also put in a lot of effort."
Gong Hao didn't reply.
Chakley turned back to look at the ship. There, Bailey and a few other warriors were waiting at the bow.
"You have a good relationship with Bailey and the others?”Then, he said indifferently,
"Lord Bailey has always taken good care of me.”
"To the point where I had to treat you to a few drinks every time you delivered goods in the past?”
"…Yes, my lord."
"Shuiglaire, did you hear that Bailey got married last month?”
"I have not heard of it, my lord."
"This is his third marriage in the past year. In the two years since you came to the island, Bailey has married five wives. He has thirteen women now.”
"Lord Bailey is so lucky."
"What surprised me was how he could afford so many women.”Chakly looked at Gong Hao and said meaningfully,"Maybe I should ask Heinz if the materials in his castle are used in a larger scale.”
"There's absolutely no such situation, Master Beckley," Gong Hao replied calmly. Of course, if Lord Chakley needs it, you can actually marry many wives.”
"Oh?" "You have to know that as a leader, sometimes you can't be too strict with your subordinates. He needed to open his eyes when it was time to open them, and he also needed to close his eyes when it was time to close them. Those who stood in the way of others 'wealth were always unpopular. However, if the empire suffers losses because of my generosity, that would be a little unreasonable. What do you think I should do?"
"This is my oversight, Lord Zakley, but I can find a way to make up for it.”
"Very good. You know where my room is.”
"Yes, my lord." Gong Hao smiled.
Chakley turned around and left. Gong Hao walked towards the bow of the ship.
After getting on the boat, Bailey laughed and hugged Gong Hao."Hey, look, is this Shuiglaire? Roar, he had already become a great alchemist's assistant. Oh my god, you're driving me crazy. I heard that Pierre died of illness. Is that true?”
"Yes, Bailey, but that shouldn't be a reason for you to marry so many women. Damn it, you've made Beckley suspect us.”Gong Hao really wanted to punch these guys. Zakley was not someone to be trifled with. His subordinates were secretly colluding with the people of Purgatory Island to make a fortune. How could he not do anything?
A warrior called Bose interrupted,"It has nothing to do with marriage. That's just an excuse. Last month, Bailey bought a female elf slave at the auction house. Do you know how much he spent? That damned son of a b * tch, Bailey. He bought him for a thousand Gold Witts. This was a number that even the nobles could not bear to part with!”
"She makes me ecstatic! And I asked a friend to buy it for me.”Bailey retorted.
"But she appeared in your house, you idiot.”"And you let Challenger see you," cursed Bowes.”
"In the end, Chakley went to investigate all of us. He found that in the past two years, all of us..."
"Spending money like water?" Gong Hao asked coldly.
" That's right." Bowes shrugged helplessly." Isn't money meant to be spent?"”
"Then congratulations, you have one more partner to share your money with. I'm afraid I'll have to give everything I have this month to Chakley to quell his anger.”
"Oh, no!" Several warriors shouted at the same time.
"I'm very sorry, gentlemen, unless you intend to let the matter be exposed.”"You guys got two years of benefits, while Zakley got nothing," Gong Hao said helplessly. He's a senior officer, we have to make it up to him."
"F * cking Bailey, I already warned you that women are trouble!”Several warriors cursed at Bailey at the same time.
" Alright, alright," Bailey said helplessly." I'll sell her when I get back. I've had enough fun anyway." I will subsidize everyone."
"Bailey, where's the thing I want?" Gong Hao stopped them from quarreling. This kind of thing really wasn't suitable for quarreling.
"It's here." Bailey replied. He took out a stack of documents."I finally know what happened to Lancelot. Damn it, this guy was actually a royal.”
"Imperial clan?"
Gong Hao was stunned.
"Yes, but not the Glory Clan.”
"A member of a Southern family?" Gong Hao understood.
" That's right, the Southern Family." Bailey answered with certainty.
Gong Hao nodded slightly and took out a new name list."This is what I need next month."
"The things you want are always so strange and troublesome. I don't think Sir Chakley would go all out for this. Damn it, we put in the effort, but he only took the benefits.”Bailey began to grumble.
Gong Hao replied bluntly,"Moreover, if anything happens, you guys will be the scapegoats." Chakley wouldn't waste any time talking to me about this. He never talked to me about money, but he got everything he wanted. If anything were to go wrong, he would at most be accused of not being strict with his subordinates, while you would be hanged. Even so, you still have to thank him for his generosity, kindness, and generosity. Look at you, then look at your commanding officer. This is the difference. I suggest that you stop being angry at Beckley's greed. If he wasn't greedy, you would all die. On the other hand, nothing might happen to me because the Purgatory Island needs me.”
The warriors were speechless at Gong Hao's sarcasm.
Unknowingly, the blond boy who used to call them adults could now teach them a lesson at will.
This change in status was so natural, yet so great.
