Chapter 590 New Era (Part 2)

Another half an hourglass time has passed.

Laura couldn't bear the fatigue either, and felt sleepy. She fell asleep and struggled several times at the desk. Seeing this, Lei Luo gently held her hand.

"Go and rest first. I'll go over after working for a while."

After waking up again, Laura rubbed her eyes and yawned softly.

"Um."

With a happy smile, Laura enjoyed a moment of sweetness.

Get up.

Laura, who was about to leave the room, seemed to suddenly notice something. She suddenly stopped and stared at the crack in the door in astonishment.

With a flash of figure, Lei Luo suddenly appeared beside her.

Holding the crystal lamp in his hand, he also looked at the slightly distorted shadow in the shadow of the door.

"One actually sneaked in. Isn't it even safe under the radiation magnetic field of the energy tower?"

Dark ghost, this is the new name many people give to the wall demon.

For the truly powerful, this kind of ghost shadow is troublesome but not fatally dangerous. But for ordinary people and low-level scholars, this kind of pervasive immortal 'different-dimensional' creature that haunts the shadows, It's like the right hand of the god of death, far more terrifying than superhuman beings, death storm monsters, and radiation sickness!

The way the deceased died was often extremely cruel.

When they are discovered, they are often embedded in any substantial material such as soil, stone, or even wooden tables and furniture, and suffocate to death.

Fortunately, over the years, although scholars have not been able to essentially analyze the nature of this 'different-dimensional' creature and find their ecological habits, they have also found some ways to reduce the impact.

for example.

Curfew policy, don’t go out after dark, don’t go into shadows and darkness even during the day.

Another example.

The way ordinary people sleep has changed from wooden beds to hammocks.

In addition, the vicinity of a strong energy magnetic field can often dispel the mysterious dark substances mixed into the air and soil. After losing these dark substances, ghosts are like humans losing the protective circle of the eye of the wind, and rarely appear.

There are also new materials such as shadowless bright lights and forced ban bottles...

all in all.

Although these ghosts are quite serious danger to humans, at least in the eye of the storm supported by major towers, people have found some ways to deal with them.

"Even here under the source of energy, wall demons can sneak in. I'm afraid that the academy will be unstable again in the near future, and death reports are inevitable."

Lei Luo sighed sadly.

In the new era, population has become the most precious resource!

Even Lei Luo and Laura's child Tianci was a baby born in response to Lei Luo's pronatalist policy, as a member of the inheritors of scholar civilization construction in the Glen Academy of Natural Sciences.

In the new era, the administrative units that were once managed by the state have long since ceased to exist.

The death storm swallowed up everything in the principality. Small wind-eye science academies established one after another with the scholar tower as the center became brand-new administrative units!

These academies of rheumatism and ophthalmology are often ruled by a powerful academician and pioneer who has mastered the power of law. They have adopted a new era education system. They communicate with each other based on distance and relationship, and exchange materials and knowledge. However, due to the focus of knowledge research, The material foundation and the level of the college deans are different, and the strength of the rheumatology colleges also varies greatly.

In the old land of Gran, the Gran Academy of Natural Sciences rebuilt by Lei Luo was undoubtedly the strongest among the nearby typhoid academy of sciences!

Its power is not only reflected in the eye area. The energy tower has been able to radiate for more than ten kilometers. The number of inhabitants has exceeded 100,000. The average annual birth rate of newborn babies has remained at an astonishing rate of more than 6,000. More importantly, The Grantham Academy of Natural Sciences has implemented five-year compulsory education for all!

In the more than ten years since the academy of sciences was rebuilt, the Gleneagles Academy of Natural Sciences has not only completed the literacy task for all adults in the storm center, but also ensured that more than 95% of newborns will pass the college diploma without resorting to any external resources. , independently display 10 degrees of academics, or independently kill a carnivorous beast in any way based on the written examination.

As a result, in terms of the number of scholars alone, the Grantham Academy of Natural Sciences has not only not decreased compared to before, but has actually increased!

This is a dark apocalyptic era in which an ethnic group has hit rock bottom, but it is also a new era in which civilization and education for all are rising!

As for the nearby Academy of Sciences, which is slightly inferior.

The Vladik Academy of Sciences and the Corleone Academy of Sciences established by Serratos are also very strong, and the Windsor Trade College is developing reasonably well. In addition, the strength and development of the other dozen or so colleges are much inferior, and there is no corresponding response. Its strength and scale ensure that the eye of the storm may be destroyed at any time due to an unknown crisis.

For more than ten years, extraordinary scholars and wandering academicians have been trying to purchase energy sources from the Grantham Academy of Natural Sciences and establish their own rheumatism academy. The number of them has reached no less than a hundred, but the number of rheumatism that has survived is only ten. Save one.

In this way, the solar energy reactor has become one of the best-selling large-scale products of the Grantham Academy of Natural Sciences, bringing huge profits to the academy and supporting the healthy development of the storm eye.

the other side.

Unlike Lei Luo who first thought about the safety of the eye of the storm, Laura first thought of her mother's identity.

"You grab it, and I'll go see what God has given you!"

After saying that, she released the energy magnetic field and left quickly.

Lei Luo shook his head. Instead of catching the invading ghost himself, he took out the crystal ball and called the college guard.

After a while, two senior scholars riding on giant owls flew over.

"Dean!"

Two members of the academy's bodyguards, one male and one female, with strong energy magnetic fields within their bodies, approximately at the level of esoteric scholars, looked respectfully at the dean of the Glen Academy of Natural Sciences, the guardian of this eye of the storm!

"Um."

Lei Luo said: "An invading ghost was found in the high tower and fled over there. You are responsible for searching for seals and notifying other guard groups. In the past few days, we will conduct a strict search for invading ghosts in the city to prevent mass deaths. case to protect residents’ safety in production.”

"yes!"

Hunting for ghosts is the most routine task of the Eye of the Wind Guards.

Compared with Lei Luo, these escorts have more professional search and sealing methods, but even so, several deaths will inevitably occur every month.

The two left quickly.

call……

A cold wind blew, and the night was quiet.

One of the best ways to avoid the harm of ghosts is to impose curfews to reduce activities in darkness full of shadows. Otherwise, even with the protection of the energy magnetic field of the solar energy reactor, casualties caused by ghosts in the eye of the storm will It will be more than ten times what it is now!

Lei Luo closed the window and turned to look at the documents on the desk that were messed up by the breeze.

These are all the intelligence and events that happened yesterday and require his warrant approval. Sighing softly, Lei Luo arranged them neatly and read them carefully one by one.

The Avenue of Truth Deaths.

Recently, a mysterious death occurred in a family of five on Truth No. 225.

These five people followed the search and rescue team to the academy a month ago, and after arranging corresponding work units and residences, they died five days ago. The Guardian immediately implemented a regional information blockade, and confirmed and denied it after detailed autopsy tests by the students. Superbody infection.

The cause of death of the deceased was due to a mutated parasitic infection. After the specimens were collected and analyzed, the source of infection was classified as a third-level dangerous substance, the records and files were sealed, and the regional information blockade was lifted.

In the radiation wasteland, underground ancient creatures brought many ancient animals and plants with completely different habits from the surface world. With radiation pollution, the surface creatures in the Star Curtain Land are undergoing various incomprehensible mutations at an alarming rate, and begin to become Dangerous and aggressive to adapt to the increasingly cruel living conditions here.

Level 3 dangerous objects, which belong to the lowest category of dangerous creatures, will not cause large-scale infection and death. At the same time, the mutant creatures that naturalists can deal with independently are almost as dangerous as level 1 monsters, a level more dangerous than large carnivorous beasts. .

After Lei Luo read the parasite information carefully, he signed his name and looked at the next page of documents.

food crisis.

Vladik Academy of Natural Sciences Large-scale mutations have recently occurred in wheat.

The reason for the investigation is that the dose of radiation contamination in the regional farmland exceeded the standard, and the wheat mutated unstablely and became fatally toxic, leading to a sharp decrease in food production and severe famine. The authorities are now planning to export ten heavy-duty balloon airships to major academies of science to alleviate this year's epidemic. crisis.

Ten ships?

Lei Luo quickly took out the crystal ball and checked the college's material reserves.

After a long time, he rubbed his forehead and approved a warrant for eight hundred tons of grain on the document to be used in exchange for heavy-duty balloon airships.

The so-called heavy-duty balloon airship is a new generation of balloon airship developed by Serratos at the Vladik Academy of Sciences. It can travel between the storm eyes and is used for short-distance passenger transportation in the death storm area. It is an important means of communication between civilians in the storm eyes. It is the only means to do this. Because it consumes an astonishing amount of energy and the ticket price is often quite astonishing, it is still hard to get a ticket. It is also one of the main sources of tax revenue for various storms.

in recent years.

Although the Grantham Academy of Natural Sciences has successively purchased some heavy-duty balloon airships, there are only seven in total. Except for the three for military purposes, only four are used for passenger transportation with surrounding storm eyes, while the others are weaker. What's even worse is that there is often only one ship or even no ship at all. We can only rely on extraordinary scholars for communication, and ordinary civilians cannot communicate at all.

As a result of the lack of information, it often takes a long time for what happened to be known to other phoenix eyes. This is also the fundamental reason why some small phoenix eyes were destroyed due to the inability to receive timely support after being hit by disasters.

Moreover, the purchase of the airship is partly due to the actual needs of the Grant Academy of Natural Sciences, and on the other hand it is indirectly supporting the Vladik Academy of Sciences. The relationship between the two storm eyes has been pretty good in recent years.

However, when it comes to food production, among the many nearby storm eyes, the Gran Academy of Natural Sciences cannot keep up with another storm eye, and that is the Corleone Academy of Natural Sciences!

I think they will definitely take advantage of this opportunity and invest heavily to introduce it.

After all, the food prices given by the Vladimir Academy of Sciences are much higher than the market price.

Unfortunately.

After Vladik's death, although Serratos inherited the name of his mentor and established the Academy of Wind Eyes, the main research directions of the Academy are combat platforms, clustered energy weapons, and high-tech materials. Research on war puppets has already begun. It was gradually surpassed by an academy established on the land of the distant Utolan Principality.

Lei Luo flipped through the next page of documents.

The seventh exploration team is destroyed!

The seventh team, which is responsible for searching for survivors and resource intelligence, consists of 2 extraordinary scholars and 11 naturalists. It lost contact two months ago.

After searching by other exploration teams, the information about the team's death was confirmed.

After preliminary confirmation, the team was killed by a superhuman, and the body has been transported back to the academy to prepare for a hero's memorial ceremony. The application for orphans and widows' pension totals 2,285 gold coins, the memorial ceremony expenses are 800 gold coins, and the funeral expenses are 280 gold coins...

Superhuman!

Lei Luo first signed the gold coin approval warrant, then took out the map, found the coordinates of the team's accident, and marked a dangerous red mark.

I saw that on this map, the area near the Grantham Academy of Natural Sciences was filled with densely packed marks, with hundreds of them!

After a while, Lei Luo turned to the next page of documents.

The degree certificate awarding ceremony for three extraordinary scholars.

After rigorous review and selection, of this group of seventeen naturalists who applied for the assessment, a total of thirteen members were unsuccessful and failed to complete the assessment. One person died unexpectedly during the assessment, and three members completed the assessment.

After careful consideration by the review committee, it was decided to award these three with the Grantham Academy of Natural Sciences Extraordinary Scholar Degree Certificate and enjoy the new post treatment of extraordinary scholars.

Below is the basic information of the three people and the signatures of the judges. [Power of Flame Heart] Orn is among them.

"Of the three qualifying candidates, the academic energy intensity exerted by one of them with the help of the Mysterious Body actually exceeded 400 degrees. It seems that the academy's results in the first quarter were quite good..."

Finally, there was good news. Lei Luo couldn't help but smile, and looked at the next page of documents.

Page after page of documents, and before you know it, another busy day has passed.
