Chapter 2314 Emblem Bracelet

Joan made a special trip to the jewelry store that Xiao Miao took him to, and bought mercury and red phosphorus from Mrs. Julia, who also sells alchemy materials.

These two materials are not expensive, and Joan spent less than a thousand gold in Duga to clear out the inventory in the store.

Mrs. Julia had a great deal and was very happy to give him a 20% discount.

Joan brought mercury and red phosphorus home, including the two pockets of diamonds and opals, the total value of these materials alone is as high as 100,000 Gold Duga, which can be used to cast the "Shock and Awe Emblem" 100 times, which should be enough used.

Joan grinds red phosphorus, diamonds and opal into powder, mixes them with mercury, and performs "mythical craftsmanship" to fully combine the viscous paste mixture and shape it into a ring shape, like a huge bracelet.

Such a "bracelet" is enough to serve as a belt for the hill giant. Joan first enchanted the 3-ring "Shrinkage Technique" to make it shrink to the size that matched his wrist.

Both mercury and red phosphorus are toxic and easy to volatilize, so wearing them next to your skin is harmful to your health.

Joan cast a spell to wrap a layer of mithril shell on the bracelet, firstly to prevent volatilization, and secondly to prevent the skin from coming into direct contact with toxic materials.

At this point, the embryonic material of the magic weapon is completed.

Next is the enchanting craft.

Joan first depicted the No. 9 rune "Hagal" on the bracelet. The meaning of this rune is "obstruction and restraint", which is suitable as the enchanting carrier of the "Emblem of Deterrence".

It took ten minutes for Joan to successfully engrave the "Emblem of Deterrence" on the bracelet. Afterwards, he tried to activate it, and the effect was good. A group of sparrows who were chirping and singing in chorus on the window sill were stunned, stupefied, and recovered after a minute. Sober, cursed and flew away.

...

Last winter, Joan and Gaina, the "Winter Witch" of Niflheim, co-authored a paper on the study of hags and witch gatherings, which was submitted to the highest-level academic journal in the world of Vales, Arcane Exploration.

In the blink of an eye, at the beginning of March 1625, this article titled "The Mystery of the Gathering" was finally published in the spring issue of "Arcana Exploration". Joan and Gaina wrote it side by side, and the academic evaluation of the editor and peers was as high as 89 points.

On March 8, Joan received a sample publication from Master Rawls at Leiden College.

In fact, as early as two weeks ago, he learned that this article was about to be published in a letter from the editor-in-chief of Tennyson, and the editor-in-chief also had a strong interest in his partner, Ms. Gaina, and pointed Joan in the future. Work more with this Styx witch, and write more articles about Niflheim.

Two or three years ago, when Qiao An first entered the academic circle, he might not understand what Mr. Tennyson meant.

Why did Mr. Editor-in-Chief suggest Joan to write about Niflheim?

Because for the scholars in the world of Vales, the "Nation of Fog" once shrouded in magic fog is like a "black box". People know that there is such a place, but they don't know the specific local conditions.

Now that the magic mist over Niflheim has just been dispelled, teleportation magic is no longer restricted, but the extreme cold and harsh climate, endless monsters, especially the mysterious Church of Styx, still hinder them from exploring the polar regions in the eyes of foreign scholars obstacles.

Just because people are curious about Niflheim and lack of understanding, it will inevitably become the next academic hotspot, attracting more and more scholars and adventure teams to go deep into the polar regions.

The thesis co-authored by Joan and Gaina can be said to be the harbinger of this wave of polar exploration.

Under such circumstances, Mr. Tennyson felt that Joan should take advantage of this craze, rely on his own knowledge of the polar region, use his contacts in the Styx Church, and create a series of Niflheim-themed works while the iron is hot. Papers are not only easier to publish, but more importantly, to seize the "status" and establish themselves as the "founder" of this field, a recognized authority in the academic circle.

Geniuses are rare, but most geniuses spend their entire lives doing minor repairs in a certain field created by the senior masters. It is very rare to create a field by yourself. This requires not only talent and knowledge, but also A little bit of luck is more needed, and the latter is often more critical than the former.

In Mr. Tennyson's view, Joan is the kind of genius with "good luck". The old man has spent most of his life in the academic circle, and he is well aware of how precious a "gold mine" like Niflheim is, so he wrote to Joan and urged Joan to take advantage of this rare opportunity.

Joan is very grateful to Mr. Tennyson for his unreserved support and guidance. Although he does not fully agree with the other party's point of view, he always feels that this method of "catching a hot spot and pouring water into it" is too eager for quick success. He does his own research. It's mainly because of his interest. He doesn't really care if he can win an award, attend the annual meeting of the academic circle, or become a master who can establish a school.

However, Joan was eighteen years old, and was no longer the unreasonable boy he used to be. He wrote back to Mr. Tennyson that night, thanking him for his suggestion, and enclosed the first draft of another thesis, please editor-in-chief Mr Reviewer.

This 200,000-word essay systematically introduces the geographical environment, natural ecology, supernatural phenomena, customs and religious beliefs of the Arctic region. Joan tentatively titled it "Introduction to Ecology, Society and Religion in Niflheim" , the subject is in full compliance with the guidance given in Mr. Tennyson's letter.

Joann sent the letter and went to bed.

As a result, he was woken up by the "Advanced Spiritual Connection" before dawn. It turned out that the editor-in-chief stayed up all night to read his thesis manuscript.

Qiao An suppressed the drowsiness, yawned, and discussed with the over-excited editor-in-chief until it was bright, and finally persuaded the old man to catch up on sleep. After all, he was old, so he should pay more attention to his health.

"Joan, your paper is full of weight, please revise it carefully and try to publish it in this summer issue."

"Summer issue? Then there is only two months to revise at most. Is it necessary to be in such a hurry?" Joan asked in surprise.

"It's better to publish it in the summer magazine, of course, because the annual meeting is usually held during the summer vacation! You are so smart, do you need me to say it?" Old man Tennyson ended the call.

Of course, Joan could hear that Mr. Tennyson hinted that he might get an invitation letter to participate in the annual meeting of the "Varesio Law Society" by virtue of this paper.

According to the past practice, the summer issue of "Aofa Exploration" is usually released in early June, and the annual meeting is held in August or September every year, and the meeting place is either in a famous university or a scenic tourist attraction.

To get an invitation letter to the annual meeting, at least one paper with a score of more than 90 must be published in the "Abstract Exploration" issued this year.

This also means that Mr. Tennyson believes that the "Introduction to Niflheim's Ecology, Society and Religion" that Joan is writing can not only be published, but also the academic score will not be lower than 90!
