Night fell.
Colin Workshop, attic.
The orange light from the lamp lit up the entire small room. Duke was sitting in front of his desk, flipping through his boss Colin's notes. His eyes were deep in thought. From time to time, he would frown and smile.
"Looks like my boss is quite capable. Just the early notes can give me such great inspiration. As expected of the man who single-handedly created Orianna!”
After closing Colin's notebook, Duke let out a sigh of relief and opened his personal interface. His Clockwork Technology was still at Specialist level, but Duke was confident that he could upgrade Clockwork Technology again.
" The so-called clockwork technology is actually a precision mechanical device that operates through a clockwork device. It can operate for a long time just by using the clockwork power device as the core.”
" The advantage lies in its precision. With the interlocked gears, it can transform tiny kinetic energy into powerful kinetic energy. Perhaps, in addition to gears, a block of wheels can also be added. In addition, parallel and series connections can also be added.”
Looking at Collin's notebook, Duke tapped the table lightly." This is amazing. With this thing, I won't be able to unlock the blueprint in the short term, but it's enough for me to study for a period of time!”
"If I were to decipher the blueprint, it would be best if it was an energy system. I could use the linked energy device to supply energy, but I don't have the money.”
Duke put Colin's notebook aside, picked up a pen and paper, and began to draw a sketch on the white paper.
" I've already reached Specialist Level, and I've also completed a portion of my theoretical knowledge. Logically speaking, I should be able to carry out more in-depth practice.”
"Right now, I need strength to arm and protect myself. I also need to think of a way to get a portion of the funds to recharge my Wealth.”
"Collin mentioned the Bluescent Manor's evaluation meeting. This might be an opportunity for me, but how do I participate in the evaluation meeting?”
Looking at the colorful lights outside the window, Duke fell into deep thought. Ever since he knew that he had entered the world line of the Battle of the Twin Cities, he felt a sense of urgency.
Although no one had started yet, in the following period of time, all the famous heroes would usher in a period of rapid development.
Duke could foresee that the world would become more and more dangerous. Perhaps he would be involved in some incident and die.
From now on, he had to seek more opportunities for himself to obtain power.
Duke, who was drawing on the blueprints with a pen, had not unsealed any of the Iron Man blueprints. Even if they were unsealed, it would be difficult for him to invest in the development without funds.
Therefore, he had to think of all ways to strengthen himself!
Clockwork Technology was a good stepping stone. It was worth the test and had a lot of potential for him to explore.
However, before that, he had to make some reservations.
Dong Dong Dong
There was a knock on the door. Duke frowned slightly, but he still stopped writing. He put the blueprint into his drawer and walked over to open the door.
As soon as he opened the door, he realized that it was his boss, Colin, who was also Orianna's father.
"Sir!"
"I asked Orianna to make some tea. Do you want to chat?”
Colin raised the tray in his hand. There were teapots, teacups, and pastries on it.
"Please come in, sir."
Duke let Collin in and the two of them sat down in front of the work desk. Duke held a teacup in his hand and looked at my amber-colored tea.
"Have you finished reading the notes?" Colin glanced at the notes on the desk and asked Duke casually. Duke nodded and said," It's very helpful to me. Many of the ideas recorded in it have inspired me. I'm very grateful.”
"So, what are your plans?”
"I plan to produce my work and participate in the evaluation meeting of the Bluescent Manor to fight for a chance!”Hearing Colin's question, Duke replied resolutely,""I have a new idea. As long as it succeeds, we might be able to enter a new level!”
"A new level."
Colin held his teacup and fell silent. Seeing that the boss didn't say anything, Duke also tactfully didn't say anything. He could feel that Colin was hesitating.
"Can you briefly tell me your idea?”
"Of course, sir!"
Duke placed the cup on the table, took out the draft he had drawn earlier, and handed it to Colin. Colin picked it up and saw the prototype of a pair of boots.
"You…"
" Clockwork Power Enhancement Device!"
As soon as Duke opened his mouth, Colin crumpled the blueprint and looked up at Duke."Tell me your thoughts!"
"The Clockwork Device is indeed very outstanding, but that's all!”
"Is that all?"
Colin's voice was filled with doubt and anger. After all, as the successor and pioneer of Clockwork Technology, he was already a master in this field. Hearing Duke's words, it was inevitable that he would be suspicious and angry.
"That's right!" Duke didn't care about Colin's doubt and anger at all. He said bluntly,"The current development is changing with each passing day. Pi City is a city of progress and has gathered all the skilled craftsmen on the continent. It is impossible for everyone to be stagnant!”
"That's why I think we have to be innovative and seek more development!”
"What do you think?"
"Through the clockwork device, humans can obtain power far beyond ordinary people!”
"I saw the law enforcers chasing children from the lower city today, but they couldn't catch up at all. The adults chased after a few children, but they couldn't catch up.”
" Therefore, I plan to make this pair of clockwork boots that can increase a person's jumping ability and speed. The clockwork core inside can store power during daily walking. At critical times, the power can be released to achieve superhuman effects.”
"This is just my idea. As for how to do it, I have to finish drawing the blueprint!”
"It's already very good, it's already very good!”
Colin, who had taken off his glasses, rubbed his eyes and laughed."You're indeed a different child!”
"Boss, do you mean to say…"
"Come with me to the parliament hearing tomorrow. I'll bring you to see the world!”
Colin took out a notebook from his clothes and placed it on the table. He patted Duke's shoulder and said,"Don't stay up late tonight. Rest early. I'll bring you to buy clothes tomorrow and then go to the parliament hearing!”
"Alright, boss!"
After Duke sent Colin off, he locked the door and jumped to the table. He picked up the diary and began to read, absorbing the knowledge inside hungrily.
Of course, he understood what Colin was talking about. He was planning to officially train him. However, Clockwork Technology was only a springboard for him. He could not jump on it all.
If Hextech, Alchemy Technology, and Orianna Technology were to gather together, he might be able to use his brain and create a world-class masterpiece.
Colin, who had just come downstairs, heard the commotion above and could not help but smile and shake his head.
"It's good to be young!"
"Father, did you go and reprimand Duke again?”Orianna, who was holding a lantern, stood at the top of the stairs. Colin shook his head."No, I just made a decision. Also, don't you want to go to a concert recently?”
"Go buy the tickets. I'll go with you later!”
"Good!"
Orianna was very excited.
Inside the pavilion.
After Duke flipped through Colin's diary, he looked at his own draft again and tore it into pieces." It's simply trash!”
"I have to reimagine now. I can make the boots and exchange them for funds, but a pair of boots is no longer enough for me!”
"I want to create a Clockwork Battle Armor, a battle armor powered by Clockwork technology!”
"Before I unlock the blueprint, I have to do my best to strengthen myself!”
Duke, who was extremely serious, opened the diary again.
What the hell was that?
There was still a long night ahead. When could he not sleep?
............
In a certain cell in Picheng Prison.
"Sigh, why did such an accident happen?”
A young man in the academy uniform sat on a hard bed and touched the wristband on his wrist. There was a stone engraved with runes on the wristband.
"Who did this? It's too detestable. All my efforts have been in vain!”
ta ta ta
The footsteps of the jailer echoed outside. Not long after, the cell door was opened, and a figure was projected in front of the door, attracting Jess's attention.
Jess, who stood up, walked towards the cell door. A Yodel man with yellow hair and a white beard poked his head out from the side of the cell door.
"The true meaning of imprisonment is really intriguing!”
Hemmerdinger, who was wearing a special edition uniform, walked into the cell shakily. He looked around and tiptoed to pick up Jess's leftover dinner.
A tentacle with a toothpick sticking out of it.
"I still remember the first time I saw you in the academy. You looked just like me when I was young!”
Looking at the octopus tentacle in his hand, Hemmerdinger looked at Jess."He is a scientist who is always ready to open up new fields!”
"Tell me the truth. What kind of research were you doing before, Jess?”
Hearing Hemmerdinger's question, Jess sat back down on the bed and stroked the runestone on his wristband. He whispered,""I've developed a way to use science to control magic. It's amazing!”
"As long as I have some more time, I will definitely succeed!”
"Really, Professor, you have to believe me!”
"Magic?" Hemmerdinger's beard trembled and he raised his eyebrows." Listen to me, child!”
"The power of magic is dangerous. It is the power of nature, and science cannot control it!”
"What if I can?" Jess took a step forward, his face filled with urgency."I'm very sure that I'm about to make new progress!”
"Unfortunately, this won't work, child!”
Heimerdinger shook his head and said,"How old are you this year?"
"Twenty-four years old!"
"Twenty-four years old!" " It's an age full of imagination and yearning for the unknown," Hemmerdinger said emotionally." But I'll warn you as someone who has been through it, Jess!”
"In the past 300 years, I've seen many people who tried to control magic, but none of them had good results!”
He casually threw the toothpick in his hand at Hemmerdinger on the table and walked towards the cell door with his hands behind his back.
"Give up on your unrealistic fantasy. Pi City can't withstand such a huge impact yet!”
Standing in front of the cell door, Hemmerdinger clasped his hands." Go to the parliament and apologize. Don't even mention the word magic!”
"Otherwise, you'll touch some people's sensitive nerves!”
Heimerdinger said meaningfully,""Some people who are hiding in the darkness and watching this city!”
.
