A Beekeeper in a Magical World Chapter 71: Magic box upgrade plan

"Because the abyss scholars are not mentally normal!"

"Don't say that, they should be considered heroes."

"Crazy hero!"

"They are so powerful if they can withstand the erosion of the abyss!"

……

Ignoring the heated discussion among the sisters behind him, Xiao Hong continued to explain to him: "Abyssal scholars can come from various races, but after joining the Abyss Research Association, they automatically leave their place of origin and no longer belong to any other organization. Their goals are only There is only one left, and that is to study the abyss."

"But this research will have a negative impact on them?" Hua Mi guessed.

"Yes, Abyss scholars are on the front line of Abyss prevention and control all year round. They must have strong enough mental power to resist the erosion of Abyss information."

At this point, Hua Mi can almost understand.

This is what is called "when you stare into the abyss, the abyss is also staring at you."

"But no matter how high their mental power is, it is impossible to completely avoid the influence of the abyss. Although understanding the abyss allows them to borrow the power of the abyss, the price is to lose part of their mind and become a little... crazy. This is why the mental state of abyssal scholars always seems to be different from ordinary people, and even if ordinary people have been in contact with them for a long time, they will be affected by the aura of the abyss..."

After some introduction, Hua Mi had a basic understanding of the profession of abyss scholar.

This is a very special profession.

It is different from ordinary professions such as mages and alchemists.

They gain power by understanding the abyss.

To put it simply, the deeper your understanding of the abyss, the stronger your power will be.

The upper limit of this profession is very high. After being promoted to Grand Bachelor, the power will be comparable to that of a seventh-ring or eighth-ring mage, or even worse.

Correspondingly, the price is also very high.

Affected by the Abyss, their sanity will be significantly lower than ordinary people in most cases, and their thinking becomes elusive.

And the aura of the abyss on them makes people instinctively uncomfortable.

This is what Xiaohong said, nine out of ten people will avoid contact with them.

Not everyone can endure this kind of loneliness.

So there are not many abyss scholars in the entire Western Continent, and they are all managed by the Abyss Research Association.

The association regularly conducts various measurements on members, including cognitive testing and abyssal breath concentration testing. Once the warning value is reached, all information contact between the scholar and the abyss will be suspended until various indicators return to normal levels.

So, although Abyssal Scholars are the people closest to the Abyss in the world and can be said to be the first line of fire protection, under strict institutional constraints, this group rarely completely falls out of control.

After the Second Abyss Invasion War ended, for nearly a thousand years, there were only a few sporadic cases of Abyss scholars losing control.

Hearing this, Hua Mi felt a little relieved.

He trusts a mature and complete system more than individuals.

No matter how strong self-control is, it is not as reassuring as a mature system.

This is why wild alchemists have a bad reputation, while academic alchemists are respected. Because the latter is lawful and the former is chaotic.

Xiao Hong also emphasized one point, don’t try to understand the thinking of the abyss scholars.

Alais separately mentioned in the letter that this companion was an abyss scholar, which was considered candid.

But before agreeing to her, there is one more thing to consider:

"Now I have another bargaining chip."

Equivalent exchange, the immutable law of beekeepers.

……

That afternoon, Alais came to the Bee Whisperer hut.

The abyss scholar did not come with her.

"Where is your companion?" Hua Mi asked casually.

"It's nearby, probably."

She seemed to be used to this. She glanced at him and added: "Don't worry, he will show up naturally when the time comes."

By then, of course, it means when they set off.

Hua Mi originally thought this answer was a bit strange, but then she thought about it and realized that the other person was an abyss scholar.

Suddenly it felt very reasonable.

Although he has never seen an abyss scholar before, it fits his imagination of this profession.

"Don't try to understand the thinking of the Abyssal Scholar."

Xiao Hong’s warning still rings in my ears.

Alais’s casual attitude clearly understands this truth.

Hua Mi didn’t ask any more questions.

The reason for inviting Alais here this time is to let her help upgrade and improve the magic box before setting off to the Lost City - this is considered as the reward for hiring him (the prepaid part).

This master of architectural design is well versed in various spatial magic principles. He can complete a greenhouse of such a large size in three days, even a mere magic box.

There are two directions for upgrading the magic box in Hua Mi's imagination.

One is [inner space].

As the number of bee colonies increases, sooner or later there will be a day when they can no longer hold it.

So take precautions and expand your space as soon as possible.

The space is large, and you can also store other things in case of emergency.

The other is [mode of operation].

The current operation is somewhat inconvenient. If you want to release the swarm, you have to find a place to unfold the magic box. It will take three or four seconds at the fastest. This "swing forward" is too long.

Hua Mi told Alais about her idea and asked her if she could realize it. Find Shuyuan www. zhaosｈhuyuｽａ.com

Alais said calmly that everything can be achieved in theory.

And by the way, he made his own evaluation of this magic box: the design is rough and barely usable.

The tone was full of the master's disdain for bronze.

However.

The more disdainful she is, the greater the room for improvement of this magic box.

The future is promising!

But Alais changed the subject and said that it would be difficult to collect the materials needed to expand the internal space in a short while, and even if they were collected, the entire upgrade process would take several days.

However, the improvement of the operation method does not require additional materials. She can design a shortcut window on the magic box, so that the bee swarm can be quickly collected and released without opening it.

Hua Mi has moved all the beehives into the greenhouse.

Give the empty magic box to Alais.

Ales walked to the open space reserved next to the greenhouse, put something in his hand on the ground, and took a few steps back.

Swift——

The thing on the ground expanded into a simple but exquisite wooden house in an instant.

Following a "clacking" sound of metal collision, two active armors rose in front of Alais, each holding a two-handed sword, standing in front of the wooden house.

"This work is not difficult and can be completed tomorrow - if I can work without interruption."

This is a gentle warning not to disturb her work.

Hua Mi nodded to show that he understood.

After Alais finished speaking, he entered the hut without looking back.

Hua Mi noticed a sign hanging on the wooden door of the hut with a line of elven text written on it, probably something like "Alais' Temporary Workshop".

"It's so convenient."

Hua Mi couldn't help but sigh.

However, it must be difficult to achieve, and both financial resources and technology are indispensable.
