Dudian closed the door after he returned to Old Fulin's room. He waited for Old Fulin to sit down: "The nobles should be aware of the potential threat that exists in our consortium. From today onwards we won't be a small consortium that will decline at any time in their eyes but a new force with great potential. It's not a good thing for us but it's not a bad thing either. In any case we have to beware of the other consortia."
Old Fulin nodded: "I know. They won't mind stepping on us if we have a problem. Now we can only rely on you. If you can become a master of the 'Temple of Elements' then our consortium will have a solid backing. At least we can draw in one or two allies. In that case the future pattern will be fixed. We won't be suppressed as long as there aren't any major incidents."
Dudian's eyes lit up: "I believe that we will encounter trouble soon. But it doesn't matter. You have to stabilize first. I'll fight back when the time comes!"
Old Fulin was startled. He thought for a moment and nodded: "I will."
"It's getting late. You should rest early." Dudian got up and closed the window. He isolated the cold wind outside: "I have something to do. I'll go back first." After saying that, he turned around and left the room. When he arrived at the dimly lit corridor, he turned around and glanced at another room. His eyes flickered slightly, and he slowly retracted his gaze. He turned around and left, riding a carriage back to his castle.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
After the banquet in St. Petersburg, the business district was as peaceful as usual, but the undercurrents between the consortiums were surging. Only the executives of the consortiums in the center of the whirlpool knew what happened. At the same time, in another art industry, there was also a small wave.
"To the oak …"
"If I love you …"
The beautiful poem was sung by the poets. In the castles of the nobles who had more social connections, the servants could often hear their young masters or young ladies reciting this poem. Even in the ordinary residential areas of the small towns, there were some handsome and brave boys who were courageously reciting this poem to confess to the girl they loved.
In addition to the catchy and beautiful poem, the structure and content of the poem were also analyzed by some well-known poets. Many of them searched through various ancient books, but could not find what 'Ling Xiao Flower' symbolized. Even the two words' Spring Rain 'were extremely unfamiliar to them. They had only heard of' Calamity Rain '. For a time, there were even some poets who commented that the poem was' made up 'and' completely ignorant '.
However, on the second day after the poem spread, the classical poet, Grand Master Taizha, gave an evaluation and analysis of this poem. The 'Firmament Flower' in the poem was a type of flower from the Ancient Era that had long gone extinct, while the 'Spring Rain' in the poem referred to a wet season in the Ancient Era. These were only recorded in extremely isolated and cold historical knowledge.
After Grandmaster Taizha's analysis, everyone came to a sudden realization. They didn't think that these two unfamiliar terms would have such a deep origin. They also gasped in admiration at the creator of this poem. Just this kind of knowledge alone was far better than most poets.
Erudite meant connotation and artistry in the hearts of many people. There were still some doubts and evaluations about the structure of the poem after the analysis and evaluation of master Taizha. But the statements were vague and objective. They didn't dare to attach negative comments. They didn't want to get into an embarrassing situation if it was proven that the poem had an origin.
Dudian didn't expect that the poem would spread his reputation in the circle of poets and aristocrats.
Mount Erdos. Burong family.
Majestic castle.
"Even the spring rain, even the sunlight …" Jenny sat at the desk in front of the window, reading a poem on a roll of paper in her hand. Her pearl-like eyes gradually became moist, and tears fell from her eyes, slid down her cheeks that were as soft as the moonlight, and soaked into the paper.
The warm sunlight shone through the window, and tiny dust particles floated in the air. The carrier pigeon standing on the windowsill was combing its soft feathers with its sharp beak, and the roll tied to its leg was engraved with the words' Melissa '.
…
…
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
"Mission of the Temple."
"Improved 'snake crossbow'!"
Dudian received his mission from the 'Temple of Elements'. "The 'snake crossbow' was created by the architect Tiya. It was created in the 263rd year of the giant wall calendar. It has been 45 years since then. The snake crossbow is known for its flexibility and versatility. It can control the wind speed and make it difficult for the enemy to figure out the trajectory …"
Dudian carefully read the records of the mission. He gradually understood what kind of crossbow it was. In general, the structure was relatively new and not complicated. But according to his idea there was no need to improve it. The flexibility of the snake crossbow also determined its strength. Although it seemed to be advanced and easy to use but in fact it didn't have much of an advantage compared to the ordinary crossbow. In short, the initial positioning was wrong.
Archery was about killing in one shot. It had to be fast, accurate and ruthless. If the speed and strength of the arrow increased, even if the enemy could see it, they wouldn't be able to avoid it. The snake crossbow was obviously a common phenomenon among mages. After all, mages sat in the 'Temple of Elements' to do research. They didn't personally experience combat, so they didn't have a deep understanding of some weapons.
As a result, there would be some things that seemed to be useful but the effect was not great.
"I have to make a big change." Dean pondered for a moment and made up his mind. This was his first mission so he wasn't only paying attention to his immediate superiors. People from other factions in the 'Temple of Elements' would also pay attention to him. Some consortiums that had ideas about him would also pay close attention to him. So he had to do his best.
He put away the drawings and looked at the snake crossbow. He didn't modify it but went directly to his room. He cut the wooden planks and prepared to make another crossbow.
Half a day passed in the blink of an eye.
Dudian came out of his room in the afternoon. He carried two crossbows on his shoulders and went to the mission hall.
