Anything else? "
Roddy continued to ask, "Simply looking for their weaknesses is only the most superficial research. If we encounter them on the battlefield, our soldiers will have to pay a huge price to kill them even if they know their weaknesses. So … Do you have any more in-depth discoveries? "
This kind of question made Talia understand that the Prime Minister was not here for show, but was really concerned about these problems. This made her even more excited. She was obviously standing on an unprecedented stage, so she must seize this opportunity!
So without waiting for Elder Usilian to answer, she immediately replied, "It's like this, Prime Minister. We have a lot of new discoveries on the communication method of these Apocalypse Guardians … It's just that … their brains are not very smart. If we can simulate the way their leader commands and let them receive this signal through a magic circle, then it's very likely that we can control their behavior."
"Really?"
A few elders asked exaggeratedly, while Lord Crupus asked calmly, "Is this confirmed?"
But Elder Usilian's expression was not very good. He said with a taut face, "This is a hypothesis that she proposed in the experiment, but it has not been verified. Prime Minister, my lords, I'm really sorry, but Mage Talia is currently only assisting us in our research as a patient, and does not have the authority to conduct independent research … "
Although his words were polite, his tone was obviously a little cold. The other researchers around them realized that Talia had said something wrong. This kind of thing that had not been verified in front of the Prime Minister was completely asking for trouble.
Silvia was right behind her. Seeing this situation, she didn't know how to salvage the situation. Instead, she tugged at her sleeve nervously. But Talia immediately said, "It's like this … Prime Minister, my lords, I have actually done the first step of verification, and his reaction is indeed in line with expectations … But Elder Usilian thinks that this doesn't mean anything —"
"It really doesn't mean anything. The signal that you sent out is more like noise, the reaction of the Apocalypse Guardians has no specificity …"
He waved his hand domineeringly, as if he wanted to change the topic. But Roddy raised his eyebrows and said, "Mage Talia is not an official researcher yet?"
"She … will only take the qualification exam next week, and because she's still treating the symptoms of 'demonic infestation', she hasn't had the time to attend the swearing ceremony hosted by Her Majesty."
It was Crupus who said, "I'm actually more interested in what she said. Young man, if you dare to speak before us Dragons and the Prime Minister, it means that you're betting your own fate and believe that your research has value, right?"
Tyria nodded immediately. She was so nervous that her palms were sweaty. When she turned to look at Roddy, she found that the latter was hugging his shoulders and staring at the Doom Guardian in deep thought.
"How about this, if you can prove that your research is indeed in the right direction, we will give you a chance. How about that?"
"Alright! Alright! Sir Lord! "
Since the lord had spoken, Yusilian didn't say anything else. The group of people gave way to Tarya, allowing her to cast a spell. Tarya's movements were a little rusty, but after a simple spell, she actually managed to make the originally quiet Doom Guards restless through a strange high-frequency sound …
And before Yusilian could show a disdainful expression, she suddenly changed the tone of her voice. The Doom Guardian actually quieted down in an instant, even its breathing became much calmer.
This scene was obviously very convincing. Roddy nodded repeatedly as he watched. Crupus turned to Yusilian, who was silent and gloomy, the corner of his mouth twitching.
"I can understand your behavior, but next time you encounter such a thing, even if you're not an official researcher, try to give it a chance when you see the feasibility."
"Yes, Sir Lord."
Yusilian's voice was dull, but Crupus did not punish him. Instead, he emphasized, "If there's a good seedling, we should cultivate more. Research results will be signed anyway. I don't think she knew this by chance."
"Yes!"
This time, Yusilian's mood was a lot higher, and Tyria was also relieved, because this meant that she would not be 'making things difficult for her'.
Seeing her heave a sigh of relief, Rody suddenly asked Sylvia, "How's her preparation for the exam?"
"Tyria is very serious in her studies, Prime Minister. I think she will definitely pass the exam."
She turned to look at Roddy, and found that the latter nodded and looked at her, "Not bad. Right now, the research department needs mages with the spirit of research like you."
With that simple sentence, he no longer paid attention to Tyria and turned to Sylvia, "Let me know when she passes the exam. You'll definitely receive preferential treatment."
Then, he did not have any intention of continuing the conversation. He turned to the group of lords and said, "Now it seems that our plan has made some progress. What I mean is … The Orcs cannot be underestimated. Since they have a deep relationship with the demons, we can also pull them over for some specific research."
"It seems that this is indeed feasible …"
The group of big shots slowly left, while Tyria stood there without moving until the door closed. Only then did she let out a heavy sigh of relief.
Sylvia, who was beside her, patted her hard, "You have to seize the opportunity … It's not easy to make the Prime Minister remember you! You may not know this, but the Prime Minister has never been stingy with his own people. Don't be surprised when the time comes! "
Tyria could not help but smile, and Elder Yusilian did not seem to be calculative with her. Instead, he generously instructed her: "How about this, I will now assign the direction of your research to you independently. When the time comes, write a paper, and I will be responsible for looking at it for you. If you need to make some changes, it should not be a problem to publish it."
"Ah … Elder Yusilian, I-I have never done independent research before —"
"Then you will have the experience of your first research."
Tyria, who returned to the 'prison' that day, was so excited that she could not sleep for the whole night. She very much wanted to tell this news to Naifei who was outside the Magic Tower, but Tyria eventually calmed herself down … She had to ensure that she did not fail in the examination, otherwise everything would be an illusion.
However, when she came to the canteen for her meal the next day, preparing to quickly finish her meal and memorize the questions, she found that the pale-faced 'patient' from before was also eating at a table not far away. However, the latter's mental state was the complete opposite of hers. This fellow's eyes were lifeless, and he sat there as if he would die at any time.
The guardian mage beside him seemed to be somewhat helpless, and could only try his best to persuade this fellow to eat something.
The latter listened blankly, and suddenly raised his hand and swept the breakfast in front of him to the ground. Amidst the crackling sounds, Tyria turned her head in surprise, and was immediately frightened by the scene in front of her …
