Chapter 199: Exploration of the Digestion Method of Magic Potion
In the laboratory, the work on extracting the memory of wish ghosts has come to an end.
These memories are all about ancient ghost riders. After learning about them, Wang Xiaoming gradually lost interest.
If he were still an archaeologist, he might have conducted in-depth research on this information.
After making a simple summary of these memories and extracting valuable information, Wang Xiaoming began to observe the supernatural runes of the wish ghost and the ghost cabinet.
While observing the supernatural runes, he found that because the two evil spirits were in a state of conflicting rules, the supernatural runes became easier to observe. At the same time, these runes leaked more information, allowing him to quickly understand the meaning of the runes.
By the time he had memorized all the magical runes and returned to his residence, it was already nine o'clock in the evening.
However, Wang Xiaoming did not rest. Instead, he went to the magic room on the second floor, took out a cardboard box, and took out dozens of parts from it.
There are cylinders, lenses, chips, etc., which are exactly the materials he is going to use to make an astronomical telescope.
Using spiritual vision, these materials were flashing with light of various colors. They were refined by Wang Xiaoming using extraordinary means and had quality far exceeding that of similar materials.
When it was late at night, Wang Xiaoming came to the second-floor balcony, holding a bronze monocular telescope in his hand.
The telescope is about the thickness of a baby's arm and twenty centimeters long. There are countless complex and ancient runes carved on the outer shell. From the appearance alone, it looks like an ancient object that has traveled from ancient times.
Raising the telescope, Wang Xiaoming stretched it, adjusted the length, and began to observe the stars in the sky.
In fact, with his current strength and knowledge reserves, it would only take a few hours to forge a telescope that can observe the starry sky.
The reason why it took several days to build this telescope was because Wang Xiaoming added a computer system to it.
This is a computer that combines mysterious knowledge and uses spiritual energy. Wang Xiaoming has been studying this thing most of the time these days.
The final product is a chip-sized supercomputer with a computing speed of 10 trillion times per second. Although it is not as fast as the top supercomputers in various countries today, it is more than enough to be used in a telescope for observing the starry sky.
This computer system will repair the image of the starry sky and make fine adjustments to the observation direction when Wang Xiaoming uses a telescope to observe the starry sky.
After all, the universe is so vast that if the telescope deviates slightly by half a millimeter, the observation position may shift to other galaxies.
The computer system will come into play at this time, just like a camera with a gimbal, which can firmly lock onto the target to be observed.
Time passed slowly. After an unknown amount of time, Wang Xiaoming put down the telescope and a look of satisfaction appeared on his face.
With the addition of a computer system, the accuracy of his portable astronomical telescope is no less than that of the large astronomical telescope in the observatory.
"I didn't expect that this sudden idea of making computers extraordinary would have such a rewarding effect." Wang Xiaoming played with the telescope in his hand and began to consider the prospects of extraordinary computers.
The extraordinary computer he built for the telescope this time did not use any advanced technology. It was just the addition of extraordinary capabilities, coupled with improvements in materials, that created this computer with a computing speed of ten trillion.
This means that extraordinary computers have amazing potential. If we work more seriously and add some supercomputer technology, the computing speed of extraordinary computers will definitely make a leap forward.
After mentally listing the extraordinary computer as a project that must be researched in the future, Wang Xiaoming habitually sensed the magic potion in his body being digested.
"what!"
He couldn't believe it, and then he sensed it again, and the result was the same as before: "Strange, why did I get more potion feedback from observing the starry sky this time?"
Just now, he discovered that the digestion of today's potion had doubled. It would originally take three days to accumulate 1% of the digestion rate, but at this rate it would only take one and a half days.
Wang Xiaoming was confused and couldn't think of the reason for a moment, so he tried to mobilize his memory and recall the entire process of stargazing today.
After returning to his residence today, he went directly to the spell room on the second floor and took out some materials needed to forge the telescope.
Then he used his forging abilities to assemble all these things together. The most time-consuming part was the computer system, as he needed to carve out tens of billions of spiritual patterns at the nanoscale.
After the telescope was forged, he began to test its capabilities to make sure it met the requirements for observing the starry sky. At this time, the potion did not react at all.
"It wasn't caused by the forging telescope."
Wang Xiaoming was a little disappointed. If he could digest the potion by forging stargazing equipment, he could shorten the time it takes to advance to Sequence Four to two months. After becoming a craftsman, forging items would be too easy for him.
As his memory continued to trace back, he came to the balcony and began to observe the starry sky. When he found different stars or galaxies, the potion in his body began to show signs of digestion.
It's just that he was absorbed in observing the starry sky at that time and didn't notice it, or he subconsciously ignored it.
The amount of potion digested each time was very tiny, but when added up over an hour, the amount of potion digested in the end added up to about twice the usual amount.
"Could it be that the observation equipment I use is different?"
After recalling his memories, Wang Xiaoming did not find any obvious clues. He could only make guesses by comparing the different points he had observed in the observatory before.
Thinking of this, Wang Xiaoming took out his phone and dialed a number. A few minutes later, Zhou Tong appeared downstairs.
Seeing Wang Xiaoming appear, Zhou Tong took the initiative to ask: "Professor, where are we going today?"
"Bulaotun Observatory!"
In order to explore the reason why the potion was digested more, Wang Xiaoming decided to go to the observatory again and use some astronomical telescopes that he had never used before.
After arriving at the observatory, they contacted the person in charge again and were quickly invited in.
Wang Xiaoming directly stated his purpose and was then led to an unfamiliar observation room. Here, Wang Xiaoming skillfully operated the astronomical telescope and began to observe the starry sky.
After a while, he left the operating table somewhat disappointedly, and asked someone to take him to other observation rooms, where he used all the astronomical telescopes.
Eventually he came to the conclusion that the changes in potion digestion had nothing to do with the utensils used.
After leaving Bulaotun, in the mysterious taxi,
Zhou Tong took a peek at the back row through the rearview mirror and found that Wang Xiaoming was thinking about something with a frown on his face. Although he didn't know what the professor was thinking about, he knew it must be related to the observatory.
So he took the initiative to say: "Professor, there are several observatories in Dajing City, why don't we go there and take a look!"
After hearing Zhou Tong's suggestion, Wang Xiaoming thought about it and nodded in agreement. Since he was already out today, he might as well visit a few more places.
Soon, the two arrived at another observatory near Dajing City. Because they had made contact on the way, when they arrived, there was someone to greet them at the door.
Led by the person in charge, we walked smoothly into the observatory. "Professor Wang, this is our most advanced astronomical telescope, which can detect... We are the second institution in the country to be equipped with this equipment, and the one ahead of us is the National Astronomical Observatory."
After arriving at the observation room, the person in charge began to explain the origin of this astronomical telescope.
But Wang Xiaoming was not interested in these. After politely asking the other party to leave, Wang Xiaoming started stargazing again.
While stargazing, Wang Xiaoming kept sensing the condition of the potion in his body. Just when he felt that he was going to return disappointed this time, the potion was being digested faster.
"This is……"
Feeling the magic potion being digested in his body, Wang Xiaoming felt a little surprised and a little astonished.
Why is it possible this time?
Wang Xiaoming was puzzled, so he decided not to go back today and stay here to study until he figured out why the astronomer's potion was digested faster.
The east is white,
The night passed, the sun rose, the best time for stargazing had passed, and Wang Xiaoming finally left the observatory.
At this time, he already had a rough idea and just needed to verify it in the evening.
After returning to the headquarters, Wang Xiaoming temporarily put aside the matter of digesting the potion and went to the new laboratory to make some arrangements.
He first found Chen Wei, who was still working in the underground laboratory, and asked her to hand over the work of the underground laboratory and then be responsible for the affairs of the new laboratory.
Then notify Cao Yanhua to temporarily suspend the production of supernatural weapons. In the future, all supernatural evil spirits acquired from the headquarters will be numbered and registered and sent directly to the No. 2 warehouse instead of being sent to him.
After that, he would find time to go to Warehouse No. 2 every month to deal with these evil spirits in a centralized manner.
After finishing everything, he took out the ghost cabinet and wish ghost that had been completely refined and dead, and began to analyze the abilities they possessed.
It was noon, and after finishing her work, Chen Wei came to the new laboratory.
Wang Xiaoming immediately called her over and said, "From now on, you will be fully responsible for all matters in my laboratory. You don't have to worry about other things."
Chen Wei and Pang Dong are both old employees who have been following Wang Xiaoming since he joined the headquarters. Before that, Pang Dong was responsible for the trivial matters in his laboratory.
Now Pang Dong was recommended by him to become the leader of the treatment team, and a position became vacant next to him.
Wang Xiaoming has always been watching Chen Wei's performance. She believes that she is serious, down-to-earth, capable, and especially able to endure loneliness.
When researching the magical e-liquid, Chen Wei conducted experiments day after day. Even though Pang Dong's experimental group successfully developed the magical gunpowder, she was not impatient at all. In the end, Chen Wei's contribution to the development of the magical e-liquid should be at least 30%.
Upon hearing her appointment, Chen Wei remained calm, nodded and started working.
"Wait a moment, I need you to do something."
Wang Xiaoming stopped Chen Wei, handed her a document and continued:
"His name is Zhao Kaiming. Because of an experiment, he is temporarily in the state of an ordinary person. You assign him a job at the headquarters. Remember not to let any strangers get close to him."
After recalling that nothing was missing, Wang Xiaoming waved to Chen Wei to leave.
Yesterday he recruited Zhao Kaiming because he was interested in his connection with the wish ghost, and even the distance of knowledge and wilderness could not cut off the connection between them.
On the other hand, he saw another possibility for a ghost rider in Zhao Kaiming, which was the curse he had always dreamed of, to ride on evil spirits.
In the original novel, there are not many ways to control evil spirits without causing any damage. Zhao Kaiming and Wang Chaling are two of the most similar examples, which have great research value.
This is why, when Wang Cha Ling came to the headquarters and asked him for the ghost-exorcism bell, he decisively agreed in exchange for the other party's cooperation in studying the evil spirit curse.
If the method of controlling evil spirits by cursing is popularized, ghost riders will no longer have to worry about controlling evil spirits causing erosion to their bodies. That will be the real and complete solution to the problem of evil spirits reviving for ghost riders.
The day passed quickly, and it was nine o'clock in the evening when Zhou Tong arrived downstairs of Wang Xiaoming as promised.
After Wang Xiaoming got in the car, Zhou Tong started the taxi and drove quickly towards the distance.
Not long after, the mysterious taxi stopped in a remote place without surveillance. The two people got off one after another and came to the nearby observatory.
They were received by the same person in charge as yesterday again. This time, they came to the observation room they had visited last night with ease and began today's starry sky observation.
Just after half an hour, Wang Xiaoming sensed that the speed of potion digestion in his body had dropped to half of yesterday's, just like when he was at the Bulaotun Observatory. He then went to several other observation rooms and the results were almost the same.
Regardless of everyone's surprise, Wang Xiaoming took out his homemade portable astronomical telescope, went to the rooftop of a tall building in the observatory, and began observing the starry sky.
"Sure enough, the potion is digesting at the same speed, half the efficiency of yesterday."
Feeling the speed at which the potion was being digested in his body, Wang Xiaoming gradually understood what factors affected the speed at which the potion was being digested in his body.
He did not delay any longer and said goodbye directly to the person in charge here. Ignoring the other party's attempts to keep him, he and Zhou Tong left quickly.
"To the next observatory."
In the mysterious taxi, Wang Xiaoming looked at the scene outside the window that was constantly receding, and a smile gradually appeared on his lips. If his speculation was true, the time required to completely digest the sequence five potion would be reduced from one year to about three months.
It is now late July, and three months later it will be the end of October. By then, even if the promotion ceremony is more complicated, it will not take more than two months at most.
This means that he could be promoted to the fourth saint this year before the plot of the original novel begins.
"But I have messed up this world so much that the plot in the novel may not happen!"
Wang Xiaoming shook his head, wiped away the distracting thoughts in his mind, and concentrated on digesting the potion.
In the pitch-black night, a yellow light flashed, and the mysterious taxi crossed a distance of hundreds of meters. In just a few minutes, it crossed Dajing City and arrived in Nancheng District.
There is a new observatory here, which he had never been to before. After getting off the bus, Wang Xiaoming did not walk towards the observatory, but went to a nearby park instead.
After arriving at the open space in the park, Wang Xiaoming took out his telescope and started stargazing.
Although this is not a good place for stargazing, Wang Xiaoming can still observe many nebulae and galaxies thanks to the powerful performance of the extraordinary telescope.
As the observation was ongoing, the potion in his body began to digest, and the digestion speed was much faster than usual.
