Chapter 200 Astronomy and Geography
Late at night, in a quiet and deserted remote park,
Wang Xiaoming finished stargazing and looked at Zhou Tong who was standing by and said, "Let's go! Let's go to the observatory!"
Zhou Tong immediately took out a taxi from the storage bag and opened the back door for Wang Xiaoming.
Although he was a little curious about some of Wang Xiaoming's behaviors, Zhou Tong knew that if he wanted to be a qualified driver, he should not ask anything and just drive.
The less you know, the safer you are.
After a while, the two came to the nearby observatory. Because they had greeted in advance, they were received by a special person.
Unlike the previous observatory, the people here felt more dull, and the person in charge of reception would only lead the way silently in front.
It took nearly two hours for Wang Xiaoming to use all the astronomical telescopes that could be used here. The result was the same as he thought, the speed of potion digestion was twice as fast as usual.
"The speed of potion digestion does not depend on the equipment, but on the location."
Although it feels a little difficult to understand, from the experience of the past two days, this is the correct answer.
"If you only observe the sky from one location, the feedback you can get from the potion will be less and less, and there may even be a day when you won't receive any feedback from the potion."
"Is this encouraging every astronomer to go out for a walk?"
After Wang Xiaoming complained a few words in his heart, he began to think about the problem of potion digestion.
"If it is a problem of location, then what is the radiation range of a location? How far do you need to go to keep the potion digestion rate at the highest level?"
These problems cannot be solved by imagination, and require constant experiments. Looking at Zhou Tong who was in a daze, Wang Xiaoming smiled and said:
"Get ready, today is a sleepless night!"
"Well, no problem, professor!" Zhou Tong said indifferently: "My body can stand not sleeping for a week."
After becoming a ghost rider, their bodies are different from normal people. Their hearts will beat slower, their blood will stop flowing, and sometimes corpse spots will appear on their bodies, so most ghost riders will have some corpse odor.
Even after being treated by the supernatural array, it only restores the body to the state when the first ghost was controlled, and the erosion of the body by the ghost is uninterrupted.
Sleeping, eating and other behaviors that maintain human survival are not necessary for ghost riders.
After leaving the observatory, Wang Xiaoming did not test immediately, but first marked the headquarters and several observatories in Bulaotun on the map, and then took the shortest distance between them.
"35.7 kilometers!"
After a simple conversion, Wang Xiaoming got the answer for the shortest distance, which is the straight-line distance from the headquarters to Bulaotun.
The smallest influence range of the starry sky observation position is within this distance, and then he only needs to test it step by step.
"Go here!"
Wang Xiaoming pointed to a position on the map that was exactly opposite to the headquarters.
Buzz!
A yellow light flashed, accompanied by the sound of the engine, and the ghost taxi disappeared from the spot.
A few minutes later, the taxi appeared at the destination, then disappeared again and appeared in another location.
If you raise your vision and look at it from a bird's eye view, it is easy to find that all the places where the taxi appears can be connected into a straight line.
And this straight line is the same as the straight line connecting the headquarters and Bulaotun, in the other direction of Bulaotun.
The speed of the supernatural taxi was very fast, but Wang Xiaoming had to get off the car every time to observe the starry sky and test the digestion of the magic potion, which slowed down the test speed.
But even so, half an hour later, Wang Xiaoming still measured the minimum radiation range of an observation point, which was greater than 29 kilometers and less than 30 kilometers.
In other words, as long as the straight-line distance from the previous observation point reached 30 kilometers, the speed of observing the starry sky and digesting the magic potion would not decrease.
Next, in order to verify the accuracy of this distance, Wang Xiaoming conducted multiple rounds of retests and finally determined that the distance was 29.7 kilometers.
After the entire test was over, it was already four o'clock in the morning, and there were more pedestrians on the road.
"Go back! There will probably be nothing else today."
Having successfully verified what he thought in his heart, Wang Xiaoming was in a good mood, because next he could digest the magic potion at the maximum speed.
"Who would have thought that the digestion of magic potions by Sequence 5 astronomers requires starry sky observations in different places, and that an astronomer actually has the attribute of wandering."
"Perhaps astronomers also need to know some geographical knowledge. After all, knowing astronomy and geography is a symbol of knowledge and wisdom."
After returning to the headquarters and sending Zhou Tong away, Wang Xiaoming began to think about the meaning behind the digestion of magic potions.
After a long time, he got a possible correct answer, that is, the correct way to digest magic potions should be to travel around the world and appreciate the scenery of heaven and earth.
"Astronomers study the universe and the stars, and need to look up. But the planet under our feet is also part of the universe. We are all in the universe."
"Looking up at the vastness of the starry sky, looking down at the heaviness of the planet, both are astronomy."
"So I should add some knowledge about planetary geography when learning astronomy. I guess this can double the speed of potion digestion."
After thinking it through, Wang Xiaoming took advantage of the early morning to start learning astronomy. This time he added some geographical knowledge. After the potion promotion, Wang Xiaoming's learning ability has far exceeded the human limit.
He just glanced at a document of thousands of words and memorized it all, and then understood it.
In just one hour, Wang Xiaoming completely mastered and memorized the knowledge that ordinary people could not learn in a month.
After learning, Wang Xiaoming sensed the digestion of the magic potion in his body, and his face showed an unexpected look.
As he thought, the digestion of the magic potion doubled compared to before.
"In this way, the time for me to completely digest the magic potion will be earlier, at least 20 days earlier."
"But next, I may not be able to stay in the headquarters for a long time."
The limitation of magic potion digestion means that if Wang Xiaoming does not leave the headquarters, the magic potion feedback brought by his observation of the starry sky will become lower and lower, which will seriously slow down his speed of sequence promotion in the future.
"But it's okay, anyway, I was going to take a break before, this time I'll just go out to relax, some research tools can be stored in the knowledge wilderness, and when needed, I can find a place to conduct experimental research at will."
Thinking about the digestion of magic potion in his mind, Wang Xiaoming came to the new laboratory.
It was around eight o'clock in the morning, and Chen Wei was already in the laboratory. Because there was not much work, she was cleaning at this time.
Reaching out his hand to call Chen Wei over, Wang Xiaoming asked about Zhao Kaiming's current situation. When he learned that there was no major problem, he began to analyze the wish ghost and the ghost cabinet with confidence.
At present, Wang Xiaoming has memorized all the supernatural runes of the two evil ghosts. The difficulty is that he has not yet fully understood the meaning of the runes.
This has caused considerable difficulties in his ability to analyze the two evil ghosts.
At ten o'clock, a violent vibration sound came, and Wang Xiaoming's phone rang.
He picked up the phone and saw that it was Zhao Guangxian at the experimental base.
"Professor! We succeeded! We successfully copied the composition structure of the Chinese medicine powder."
As soon as the phone was connected, Zhao Guangxian's excited and loud voice came from the other side.
Wang Xiaoming held the phone farther away until Zhao Guangxian's voice became normal, then he approached and said:
"Yes, I was right about you. You should seal off the lab immediately, and no one who knows about it is allowed to contact the outside world. I will send someone to the lab to take you to the headquarters."
"Okay, professor, we are all in the lab now," Zhao Guangxian explained, "The experimental results just came out, and I called you directly."
After hanging up the phone, Wang Xiaoming immediately found Chen Wei and asked her to lead a team of soldiers to the experimental base to bring Zhao Guangxian and the experimental data to the headquarters.
After receiving the task, Chen Wei set off immediately. She first contacted the security department of the headquarters to transfer a team of soldiers, and then asked for several cars from the logistics department, and then set off for the experimental base.
The experimental base is not far from the headquarters. After about an hour, Chen Wei brought Zhao Guangxian and the other two to the headquarters.
In the new laboratory,
Wang Xiaoming stopped the experiment in his hand, looked at Zhao Guangxian and the other two who were full of joy, and encouraged: "You have done a good job. You have worked hard during this period."
Although it was just a short sentence, it made Zhao Guangxian and the other two's eyes red. They had been working overtime day and night to do experiments before, wasn't it for now?
After simply comforting Zhao Guangxian and the other two, Wang Xiaoming began to test the samples they brought. After comparing them with the raw materials of Chinese medicine powder, it was determined that the composition structure was the same.
During the test, Zhao Guangxian and the other two kept staring at Wang Xiaoming's movements nervously, fearing that the final result would be different from theirs.
When the test results came out, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief and showed a relaxed look.
"It seems that the Chinese medicine powder really worked this time." Wang Xiaoming looked at the gray-white powder in his hand, and a satisfied look appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Although there is now a healing formation, the resurrection of the evil ghosts of the ghost riders at the headquarters has been solved, but this does not mean that the Chinese medicine powder is useless.
Chinese medicine powder has a very powerful emergency effect. When the evil spirit revives and cannot be suppressed, or is in a difficult situation and cannot escape, and the ghost driver cannot rush to the headquarters, the role of Chinese medicine powder is reflected at this time.
After the test, there is one last step, which is to put it into the supernatural transformation array to see if it can be transformed into Chinese medicine powder.
Wang Xiaoming came to the corner of the laboratory, where a supernatural transformation array had been arranged long ago.
Unlike the array arranged in the underground laboratory at the beginning, the supernatural transformation array he arranged this time not only shrank in size by half, but also had most of the runes on the array.
The bronze tripod placed in the center of the array was replaced with a transparent beaker, and the eight candles surrounding the array disappeared.
The array in front of him was modified, and Wang Xiaoming had his own understanding based on the supernatural array.
After being promoted to Sequence 5, with the blessing of the complete version of the Eye of Secrets, he could get a lot of supernatural information from the evil spirit, giving him the ability to transform the supernatural array.
In fact, Wang Xiaoming is no longer satisfied with the ready-to-use model. He transforms the formation into what he wants, which is not only an experiment of newly acquired knowledge, but also an exploration of unknown directions.
Now this spiritual formation can not only transform spiritual power into each other, but also realize the mutual transformation of spiritual energy and spiritual power.
In other words, when he presides over the formation, he can transform the Chinese medicine powder without spiritual power.
Entering the formation, Wang Xiaoming put the gray powder copied by Zhao Guangxian and others into the transparent beaker in the center of the formation and activated the formation.
He did not place evil spirits in the formation, but directly began to outline the spiritual runes contained in the Chinese medicine powder, and then transformed it into spiritual power through the formation and melted it into the gray powder in the beaker.
After the transformation was completed, Wang Xiaoming picked up the beaker and directly identified the gray powder inside. This time, the information prompted was no longer ordinary medicinal powder, but Chinese medicinal powder that could suppress the resurrection of evil ghosts.
Done! ! !
Next, he only needs to make some changes to the formation of the medical team, and there will be a steady stream of traditional Chinese medicine.
The medical team produces powdered traditional Chinese medicine, which can be considered a professional counterpart.
Recalling the appraisal results just now, Wang Xiaoming showed a look of satisfaction on his face:
"The effect is no different from the original version. The most important thing is that the storage time has been greatly improved, reaching one year."
The supernatural items produced from the transformation array have a flaw, that is, they have a limited validity period, which causes many of the supernatural items produced to be unable to be stored for a long time.
Now the validity period of traditional Chinese medicine powder has reached one year, which is a huge improvement.
"However, I am not in charge of those formations in the medical team. Will the validity period be shortened by then?"
Wang Xiaoming suddenly thought of a problem. If the validity period of the powdered traditional Chinese medicine converted by the medical team is too short, this would greatly affect the use of the powdered traditional Chinese medicine.
"I have to fundamentally solve the problem of the expiration date of these transformed supernatural items."
Thinking of some previous speculations, Wang Xiaoming gradually came up with an idea.
"There are three types of runes contained in the body of the supernatural ghost, namely tiny runes, supernatural runes, and giant runes. Each of these three runes is the basis of the latter rune."
"The reason why the supernatural items that come out of the transformation array have usage time limits is most likely because the tiny runes that make up the supernatural runes have not been outlined."
"Supernatural runes are composed of tiny runes. Such supernatural runes should be the most stable and will not collapse easily.
In the formation, I only outlined the supernatural runes, and the same is true for the supernatural runes transformed by the formation. Without the foundation of tiny runes, these integrated supernatural runes are likely to slowly collapse, and then Causes supernatural items to fail. "
Thinking of this, Wang Xiaoming ordered Chen Wei to get a batch of supernatural items from the logistics department that were about to expire.
"Professor, what's the problem?"
Seeing Wang Xiaoming calling Chen Wei away, Zhao Guangxian felt uneasy and asked quickly.
"It's okay!" Wang Xiaoming said: "The copying was very successful. You have made a great contribution this time. Just clean up and I will take you to see Minister Cao."
See the minister! ! !
Zhao Guangxian and the other three suddenly felt nervous. They had never seen an official as high as the minister in such a long time since they had joined the headquarters.
After the tension, there was endless joy. Wang Xiaoming took them to see the minister, which further showed that their results were very important.
