"Arthur, what specialization did you learn? I'm also a mechanic apprentice! " The girl sitting opposite was called Fini. She had a liveliness that matched her appearance. She kept asking questions along the way. Chen Rui, who was supposed to ask questions, became the one answering instead.
"I've learned all three specializations, but I'm just scratching the surface." Chen Rui said modestly. Arthur was his alias and the original name of this body. To be on the safe side, Chen Rui didn't intend to use the name "Richard" in the Shadow Empire.
"That's amazing!" Fini's big black eyes lit up, "I only learned the accessory specialization."
The middle-aged man had been silent. Looking at Fini and Chen Rui talking harmoniously, he interjected, "Young man, it's better not to be greedy. It's better to specialize in one."
Chen Rui knew that this was a pertinent remark. It seemed that this middle-aged man was also a first-rate mechanic, so he nodded immediately.
Before the middle-aged man said anything, the young knight named Monroe spoke, "Hmph! An acolyte with eyes but no sight! You don't even know how to say thank you after getting this sir's guidance! "
Through [Analytical Eyes], he learned that the middle-aged Rummenigge, the young knight Monroe and the girl Fini were all from the Asmodeus Royal Family. Rummenigge's strength was Demon King, Monroe was a Higher Demon and Fini was an Intermediate Demon.
After reaching Megrez state, [Analytical Eyes] was further upgraded and could accurately analyze the opponent's various qualities. Take Monroe for example – Race: Lust Royal Family. Comprehensive Strength Assessment: D +, Physique: D +, Strength: D +, Spirit: E, Agility: D.
As the peak of Higher Demon, Monroe's physique and strength were his strengths, but his spirit was weak and his speed was average. He obviously focused on strength training.
Not only that, the upgraded [Analytical Eyes] also unlocked the hidden attribute of identification which could identify the attributes of equipment. At this level, it still wasn't [True. Analytical Eyes]. If it reached the "True" level of the evolved skill, he didn't know what kind of powerful function it would have.
Monroe seemed to have always disliked Chen Rui, but Chen Rui didn't care. This kind of character could be easily killed with one finger, so he didn't care at all. However, he still had to thank Rummenigge for his kind advice, so he immediately said, "Thank you for your advice."
Rummenigge saw that Chen Rui was also at the peak of Higher Demon (shown by True Breath Holding), but his self-restraint and bearing were much better than the impetuous Monroe. He nodded slightly.
"Ignorant …"
Monroe still wanted to speak, but Fini glared at him with dissatisfaction. "What do you mean ignorant? Do you know mechanics? Then tell me, what ratio is needed to successfully smelt the Crimson Stone, Blue Light Sand, Griffin Feather, and the blood of the Three-Horned Rhinoceros into a Claret Crystal? "
Monroe was speechless for a while. Chen Rui frowned slightly, "Fini, you're using the 5: 3: 1: 1 formula, right? The Claret Crystal obtained by this fusion ratio is relatively fragile. If you add three drops of purple ice dew before the blood of the Three-Horned Rhinoceros, it can double the success rate, and the quality of the Claret Crystal obtained will also improve. "
"Purple ice dew?" Fini's eyes widened and she looked at Rummenigge on the side. "Grandpa, is it like this?"
Grandpa?
This title made Chen Rui feel a little surprised. He thought they were father and daughter, but he didn't expect them to be grandfather and grandson. However, the life span of Demons was generally hundreds of years. It couldn't be seen from the appearance alone. Generally speaking, the stronger the power, the longer the life span, but the lower the fertility rate. Therefore, it wasn't surprising that Rummenigge was Fini's grandfather.
Hearing Chen Rui's improvement on Fini's formula, Rummenigge was slightly surprised and nodded, "Not bad, but the nature of the purple ice dew is unstable. Generally, only a mechanic can master it. It's still early for you."
"En." Fini nodded and looked at Chen Rui with admiration, "Brother Arthur really knows a lot. Are you going to the capital this time to pass the mechanic certification?"
This was originally a cover for Chen Rui's identity. After nodding, Fini's interest was greatly increased. She asked a lot of questions about mechanics. Chen Rui also learned a lot of relevant news about the Dark Shadow's capital from her. Many of them weren't in the information provided by Jía. At that moment, he patiently answered Fini's doubts one by one.
Rummenigge on the side became more and more surprised as he listened. This apprentice named Arthur is not simple. From some theoretical knowledge, his level of mechanics has reached the level of mechanics. No, there are some things that even senior mechanics may not be able to master!
Rummenigge said, "Arthur, who is your teacher?"
To be precise, Chen Rui's teachers were Chief Tauren, Delong, Master Skye, and Master Xingxing. However, he definitely couldn't say these, so he could only say that his teacher was a mechanic who didn't want to be named.
Rummenigge knew that the Demon Realm was full of hidden talents. Although many masters weren't famous, their strength was no less than those famous senior masters, so he didn't ask much at that moment.
From some exchanges, Chen Rui had confirmed that Rummenigge was definitely a senior mechanic who was proficient in accessories. He might even be a master. He immediately raised some difficult problems in the daily production of accessories.
Rummenigge became more and more surprised. Some of "Arthur's" questions were quite rookie, but some were extremely profound. Even he had to think carefully before answering. He really didn't know how a teacher taught his apprentice. On the other hand, Fini on the side was confused and couldn't interrupt for a while.
Only Monroe's eyes flashed with jealousy when he saw this situation.
Rummenigge took out a copy of "Basics of Mechanics" from the space ring and lent it to Chen Rui to read. Chen Rui was overjoyed. Although he had the guidance of Master Xingxing and Master Skye as well as rich experience in practical operation, his foundation was actually very lacking. Many things were copied and imitated through [Deep Analysis]. He knew how it was, but he didn't know why. At present, this book was a timely help. It was a great luck to travel with the three of them this time. Chen Rui quickly thanked Rummenigge and read it carefully.
Opening the first page, he saw a few words written under the preface: Genius comes from hard work – Rummenigge Asmodeus.
Fini and Monroe chatted a few words, but they couldn't find a topic of interest. Feeling bored, they also took out a mechanics book from the space bracelet and started reading. Rummenigge showed approval, closed his eyes and began to pretend to sleep.
Fini was already absent-minded. Her big eyes kept looking around. When she glanced at Chen Rui from the corner of her eyes, her eyes also froze.
She saw Chen Rui flipping the pages of "Basics of Mechanics" quickly. That speed wasn't reading at all, but flipping the book. In about half an hour, the thick book of basics was flipped.
After Chen Rui finished flipping, he closed his eyes. Under the skill of [Deep Analysis], his brain was like a smart computer. It began to quickly sort out the new data it absorbed, constantly strengthening and improving the memory imprint.
After reading "Basics of Mechanics", Chen Rui's basic knowledge that he had been lacking was supplemented. He was overjoyed and took a deep breath. Then, he saw Fini looking at him dumbfounded. She stuttered and asked, "You just … finished reading?"
"I think so." Chen Rui scratched his head, knowing that he was overdoing it. However, this kind of book wasn't sold on the market. Only some mechanic masters had it. Even Skye and Xingxing didn't have it (One didn't have it, and the other didn't accept disciples so he didn't carry those things with him). The opportunity was rare, so he couldn't care much.
"It's like this. I've read an incomplete basics before. Now, I've just completed those that I haven't read before."
Chen Rui's excuse wasn't brilliant. If it was just a completion, then he should focus on reading the incomplete parts carefully. How could he flip through it at a constant speed like just now?
Fini rolled her eyes and took out three more books, "Brother Arthur, I also have" Advanced Mechanics "that recorded three kinds of proficiency. Grandpa gave it to me to read after I became a mechanic. Have you read it?"
This kind of book was even rarer. It was an advanced book. It was rare that it had all three proficiencies of metal, leather and accessories. Chen Rui looked at the three books covetously and shook his head quickly, "I haven't read it before. Can you lend it to me?"
"No problem." Fini looked very generous, but she showed a wise smile, "But I have to test your knowledge of" Basic "first. If you answer all of them correctly, I'll lend all three books to you."
"… Okay."
After a question and answer session, Fini's eyes were sparkling. He actually answered all of them correctly! Even the question about the page number that she had deliberately made difficult for him was answered accurately.
Monroe looked disdainful: This method of picking up girls is too clumsy. She clearly memorized this book long ago. Everything before was just an excuse.
Chen Rui happily took the three books of "Advanced Mechanics", only to hear Fini add another sentence, "You have to return it to me in an hour."
Chen Rui was a little speechless. For the sake of precious knowledge, he had to take the books and flip through them one by one. After reaching the Megrez state, his spirit had also undergone a qualitative change. Coupled with the effect of the earth elemental heart, [Deep Analysis] could be used five times a day, so these books weren't a problem.
After quickly "flipping" the three books and digesting the advanced knowledge using [Deep Analysis], Chen Rui returned the books to Fini and shook his head regretfully, "These books are too profound. They are much more difficult than basic studies. I can't understand them, so I'll return them to you."
"You can't understand them, yet you're flipping through every page?" Fini looked doubtful.
Chen Rui shrugged, "I'm just curious."
Rummenigge, who had been closing his eyes to rest, opened his eyes, "Arthur, I thought of the answer to your previous enchantment problem. Extend the third baseline straight to the fifth baseline, remove the eighth baseline and the ninth baseline, then you should be able to complete the perfect water defense enchantment. "
Chen Rui thought for a while and frowned, "I think the third baseline should be extended to the seventh baseline, the eighth baseline should be retained, and if the ninth baseline is removed … the effect should be better."
Rummenigge nodded approvingly and discussed a few more questions in a probing tone. He was getting more and more surprised. Could it be that Arthur really understood those books just now? In such a short time? Impossible!
This Arthur is likely to have known my identity from the name left in the book, so he deliberately approached me to show goodwill. After all, the name Rummenigge is well-known in the Shadow Empire. Although there are many people with the same name, the senior master of the Mechanic Association, Rummenigge Asmodeus, is the only one. There are no other branches.
However, this apprentice really should change to an official mechanic robe. From the perspective of understanding and comprehension, he has quite the potential.
"By the way, sir, this book is back to you." Chen Rui returned "Basics of Mechanics" to Rummenigge. "Thank you very much for sir's generosity."
Rummenigge shook his head, "I'll give this book to you."
Monroe was shocked. Who is Master Rummenigge? He actually gave a book to this Great Demon apprentice. It seems …
In fact, all the contents of "Basics of Mechanics" had been copied by [Deep Analysis]. This book was no longer useful to Chen Rui. However, since he was kind, he naturally couldn't refuse, so he quickly thanked him.
"I believe you have heard about the capital's mechanic contest." Rummenigge glanced at Chen Rui faintly, "You have great potential. I hope you can participate in the contest after passing the mechanic certification."
The master seems to be very optimistic about this Arthur? Monroe was shocked again. The reason why this contest attracted mechanics from all over the world was that several masters of the Mechanic Association would choose their successors from the winners!
Chen Rui's goal this time was the Custer Family. He wasn't too interested in the mechanic contest, so he casually agreed.
This casual attitude seemed to make Rummenigge a little surprised. He couldn't figure out the apprentice's thoughts, but he didn't continue. As a senior mechanic master, it was already a lot of care to say so much to a mechanic apprentice even if this apprentice had potential.
This trip that was supposed to be a boring carriage trip had unexpectedly gained a massive amount of theoretical knowledge of mechanics, especially the most lacking basic knowledge. It made Chen Rui, who had rich practical experience, get a good supplement. At this time, there were still a few days before arriving at the capital. Chen Rui wasn't in the mood to chat with Fini anymore. He pretended to be sleepy and entered the Super System.
Chen Rui chose to enter the refinery.
The appearance of the refinery was a bit similar to a blacksmith shop. There was a flame symbol in the center. When he came to the door of the refinery, there was a light screen showing the options of forging and automatic refining. When he selected "automatic refining", a space to put items would appear. After putting the corresponding drawings and materials in, the required equipment would be automatically generated. Chen Rui put his thoughts on the option of "forging", and the door of the refinery opened. When he walked in, it was a vast space that could automatically generate various tools at will. There were not only mechanics but also potions.
The more amazing functions were not limited to these. The refinery had a link function that could automatically connect with the storage warehouse and the training ground. Not only could he directly retrieve or store items from the storage warehouse, but he could also use the time rule of the training ground! It was just that after the link, the aura required for the training ground was doubled. For example, the price of the 5: 1 time rule per day had become 10,000 auras.
With Chen Rui's thoughts, tables, chairs, and various special tools for making accessories and magic items appeared in the space. Then, he took out some materials from the storage warehouse and began to try.
The forging room had a special function of additional proficiency and comprehension ability. His mechanics were growing rapidly in the process of crafting again and again.
