Reina left, leaving Kodorf standing alone in the wind.
Kodorf stood there and watched Reina's figure disappear into the lobby of the main building of the castle. Only then did he sneer, "It's not your turn to look down on me. Damn Reina, isn't it just that your level is higher than mine?" At Level 15, I'll catch up to you in another year or two. "You tyrannosaurus rex, who only knows how to charge around, go to the Outer Realm battlefield. When you come back, you'll find that I'm already standing in the core circle of the clan!"
"Wisdom is far more important than martial force, idiot!"
After cursing a few times, Kodorf left with a heart full of anger. However, when he walked into the bottom floor of the main building, he had already changed into his usual gentle smile. However, Kodorf's eyes were cold, as if a blizzard was brewing inside.
Two months later, the wind and snow finally visited this majestic floating island. In the first week of December, an ice and snow swept through Babylon. After the ice and snow subsided, the floating island was covered with a layer of silver makeup. Whether it was the low walls or the towering bell towers, everything seemed to have lost its substance after being covered by snow. It was like a white dream, seemingly real and illusory.
The silver-white snowflakes blurred the boundaries between things, merging the heavens and the earth into one, making them indistinguishable from each other.
Unknowingly, Allen had already spent three months in the Blade of Dawn. After the first snow of this year, he stood out among his peers with excellent results and was promoted to the beginner class as the first in his class. He began to learn more in-depth knowledge. Behind Allen was Hughton's granddaughter, Vera. It was only when the tutor announced the results that the students of the same year were shocked to realize her existence.
Ever since Allen and Vincent fought at Twilight Bar that night and defeated Vincent. Allen discovered that the enthusiasm of the students of the same level towards him had suddenly risen. Faithfully implementing the principle of "one more friend means one less enemy", the circle around Allen gradually grew, and he faintly became an outstanding figure among the junior students. However, the time he spent socializing was still limited. Allen's day was filled with classes and various training.
On the first day of the elementary course, Allen received a list of income and expenditure personally handed to him by Helsing. It listed Allen's expenses in the previous quarter, including the cost of hunting the Black Widow, the living expenses of Dawn Blade, William's monthly salary, and other trivial expenses. Allen skipped over the different names and his gaze fell on the total amount of expenditure.
The 180,000 yuan expenditure still shocked the young man who was new to economics, but when he saw the list of income, he was finally relieved. In the list of income, other than the initial 20 million from the Federation Government, the family had also given him a 250 thousand subsidy for the first quarter. There was also a special budget of 10 million yuan. Although he did not know what the special budget was, there was a total of 550,000 yuan in the bank. After deducting the expenses, there was still a balance of 370,000 yuan. This made Allen relatively optimistic about the expenses of the next quarter.
However, he soon realized that he was happy too early. By the time he knew this, it was already time for him to follow Hughton and come into contact with the knowledge of the Magic Cube sequence.
When he began to come into contact with the elementary course, Hughton informed him that he could go to his house to study every night, which made Allen jump with joy. So every night after dinner, Allen would take a taxi to Rio Avenue, and Hughton's house became his second school.
Learning from Hughton is not an easy task. You can't expect him to teach you from low to high in simple language like the lecturers and professors of Dawn Blade. The old drunkard said almost everything he thought of, so tired that Allen had to take notes honestly with his amazing memory so that he could sort it out and understand it further over the weekend.
After studying with Hughton for a month, Allen came up with a clue about what he was talking about, and thus knew some of the general principles of the Magic Cube sequence.
Simply put, the Magic Cube sequence consists of three parts: the basic template, the pivot array, and the source point arrangement.
The basic template is the base of all Magic Cube sequences. It is a universal module that can be embedded into any component of a magic energy weapon. It can be seen as a bridge between the Magic Cube sequence and the magic energy weapon. The pivot array was the essence of the Magic Cube sequence. The so-called pivot array was actually an imitation of the genetic circuit in the Origin Energy System, causing the energy to move according to certain rules, combine, and produce specific abilities.
According to Hughton, there were hundreds of basic pivot arrays used in magic energy weapons below the fifth grade. Beginners like Allen had to be familiar with and accurately draw all the basic pivot arrays before they could be considered qualified.
If the basic template was the skeleton that supported a Magic Cube sequence, then the pivot array was the blood vessels that allowed energy to flow in the sequence. The final arrangement of the source points was the soul. The number of source points determined the energy level of the sequence, and the order of the arrangement affected the power of the sequence.
The basic template could be obtained through assembly line production, while the pivot array had many diagrams that could be learned and copied. Only the design of the arrangement of the source points was the basis for distinguishing between a sequence technician and a master. How to effectively combine the arrangement of the source points and the pivot array, so that a sequence could use the lowest energy consumption and exert the greatest power had always been the pursuit of every master.
That required many years of experience, but it also required the occasional inspiration and unconstrained imagination!
"A guy without imagination can only be a technician who replicates diagrams forever." Hughton had said that when he mentioned the arrangement of the source points.
Generally speaking, the design of the Magic Cube sequence required rigorous and systematic scientific theories as support. At the same time, it also required the rich imagination of a poet or painter. The combination of the two was a true master-level work. For Allen, who had just entered the sect, he spent almost every day dealing with the diagram of the basic pivot array for the next two months.
Another quarter passed.
When he received the income and expenditure list for the past quarter, Allen was shocked to discover that he had spent nearly 30,000 Federation dollars in the past quarter! This huge sum of money was mainly spent on the basic template and the materials used to practice the processing of the pivot array. The investment in learning the Magic Cube sequence far exceeded Allen's imagination. Only now did he know why even a sequence technician was a rare and precious talent in Babylon.
On the income list, apart from the 250,000 yuan family funding, the special budget for the next quarter suddenly increased to 30,000 yuan. Allen vaguely guessed that this special budget should be prepared for his study of the Magic Cube sequence.
Allen's guess was correct, but he did not know that this budget would continue to increase as he learned. In Hawes' opinion, the upper limit of this budget was set at the level of one million, and the Clan Council of Elders had already approved it. If Allen showed the potential of a master, then this budget could even be raised to the upper limit of ten million!
From the changes in the budget figures, it was not difficult to see the difference between a technician and a master from another side.
That night, Allen completed the production of a low-level sequence by himself. The sequence he created allowed the magic energy armor to generate an ability called "Wind Travel", increasing the speed of the wearer by about 15%. The entire sequence had no bright spots to speak of. From the processing of the pivot array to the design of the source point arrangement, it could only be said to have reached a qualified standard.
However, considering that it had only been half a year since Allen had started learning, this sequence was commendable. When the sequence was sent to Horn and transferred to the meeting table of the Clan Council of Elders, Allen's special budget for the next quarter was increased by half. The budget of 450,000 yuan was enough to make any disciple of the clan jealous, including direct blood relatives like Kodorf.
But now, Allen didn't know the value of the small sequence in his hand. He was only happy that he could create a sequence on his own, even if it could only be used for low-grade weapons below Gear 5. So when Hughton stuffed him a bottle of beer, not only did Allen drink it, he drank four or five more bottles, and the world became blurry in his eyes again.
Hughton also drank a lot. He happily patted Allen on the shoulder and said, "You did a good job, boy." It only took him half a year to create a low-level sequence. He could already be said to be talented. Of course, you're also working hard. At least I've never seen a student study like you, almost day and night. "You did the right thing. There aren't many geniuses, but there are even fewer people who can persevere!"
"Apart from talent, hard work and perseverance are also essential qualities for successful people."
Allen nodded vigorously and said, "I will remember, teacher."
Hughton laughed, "I really want to see you set up your own school and show those so-called genius students under Lawrence that they're nothing. As far as I know, it took that old fellow's proudest student a year and three months to complete a low-level sequence on his own. Look, you're much better than him! "
After laughing loudly, for some reason, Hughton gradually became a little gloomy. He silently took a sip of liquor and said, "Little fellow, you know what? Actually, there's nothing to be proud of for magic energy weapons. Its energy technology comes from Adahua Planet's Magic Cube device, and its concept comes from the Origin Tool. Back then, a fellow who had seen the Origin Tool put forward the bold idea of copying the Origin Tool, which was why he had the current magic energy weapons. That fellow is the father of the Devil Martial Arts, Monroe. "
"Origin Tool?" Allen asked in surprise, "Teacher Hughton, what is an Origin Tool?"
"Those are weapons and equipment that can directly absorb and drive cosmic origin energy. No one knows how many of them there are. They only know that obtaining an Origin Tool is enough to change the strength of a faction. For example, our young Marshal Greed has an Origin Tool in Windsor Bellow's hands. That's … "
