In the new year, apart from his car manufacturing career going on the right track, his mathematics classes seemed to have gone astray.
He had planned to go all the way in the field of pure mathematics until someone's stomach was emptied. He decided to leave the real research field to those who were interested in it. Pure mathematics was too difficult to study. His interest was not there after all.
However, because the R&D center had recruited a lot of Mages from mathematics classes, they also discussed their problems with their peers and even asked questions during the Q&A session at the end of the class. Before he knew it, the focus of the class had gone astray to physics.
He had wanted to change the topic. But after thinking about it, he gave up. After all, if he really wanted to calculate the mathematical structure of spell models, he had to have knowledge of physics. In the past, when he stayed in the Orange Eaton Academy in the Xijia district of the southwest peninsula, there was only some superficial physics in the basic course of "Nature," which was far from enough to play with spell models or build cars.
Besides, after he started teaching physics, the atmosphere in the class was much livelier than before. Whether or not there were Mages involved in the building of cars, they were all happy to discuss and study the topic. At least, the practicality seemed much better than mathematics and closer to life. So, Luke made the best of his mistake and went on with his lecture.
Otherwise, according to the original plan, if he continued to fight with pure mathematics, there was no telling how many Mages would have been killed. Luke's schedule and lectures were quite fast. In the recent mathematics classes, Lin had seen a lot of expressions of doubt. It was as if they would give up if he put in a little more effort. So, he had to change the topic to make everyone relax.
Also, from another perspective, was it really a good thing for him to bring all his mathematical knowledge into the knowledge system in the land of mazes? It was equivalent to bringing all his mathematical knowledge from the Mayans to the early twentieth century to this world that was quite unfamiliar with mathematics.
At this moment, his teaching progress had only just touched calculus. Perhaps this was a good time to stop. It meant that he could choose to bring a broader knowledge system instead of digging deeper into a certain system, resulting in a situation where knowledge was biased.
Besides, if he slowed down and waited for the people behind him to catch up, it would be possible for him to continue making progress. Otherwise, right now, he couldn't even find someone of the same level as him to discuss with. There was no one who could question him, so how could he prove that he was right?
As for that monster Lich, he had never considered him in the first place. She had always used her fists to question or answer questions. That kind of academic discussion was too intense, and she couldn't bear it.
Speaking of which, this class was clearly called Mathematics. What was going on with Physics? Although knowledge was not separated into families in the early days, unlike the era of transmigrators, where knowledge was divided into categories in great detail. However, from time to time, a certain person who was giving the lecture would have an urge to smash an apple on everyone's head to see who would figure out the principle of gravitational acceleration.
It was the same for teaching to the outside world, and the three apprentices at home were even more unprofessional than a certain person who taught physics in a math class.
The two girls had nothing to say. They put all their efforts into rearing silkworms and reeling silk. Not only did he plant mulberry leaves in the courtyard for the Demon Moth larvae to eat, but he also tried to increase the number of Demon Moth larvae. Inside the silkworm house, there were originally long cubicles with cultivation tables. Now, there were cubicles with cultivation racks. Each rack had at least six to seven layers of cultivation plates, and some even had more than ten layers.
As for the new apprentice, Leonardo, he wanted to learn whatever he saw. Although it was only three minutes of interest, he picked it up faster than anyone else. He didn't pay attention to practice, nor did he deliberately memorize. He also didn't have the ability to draw inferences from one instance. However, he had an indescribable intelligence.
No matter what he was doing, he could find something that others didn't notice, and he could express it to others very well. It was as if God was telling the world the beauty and uniqueness of this world through his mouth.
This seemingly impeccable apprentice was actually very resistant to learning 'magic'. If someone were to keep an eye on him and ask him to learn and practice magic, Leonardo wouldn't go against his teacher's wishes. However, as soon as he let go, it was as if magic was forgotten from his world. Even for things that could be easily solved with a 1st-circle apprentice spell, he would rather use his hands and use a more tiring method to complete them.
It wasn't hard to understand his inexplicable persistence. It didn't matter if Leonardo was the one Leonardo imagined. It was certain that Leonardo came from Europe in the Middle Ages, or Florence, which was very close to the Vatican. To him, the Catholic faith and taboos were part of his life and growth.
Under that faith, the only place where anyone who used magic could go was the stake. Therefore, his rejection of magic was just like how people naturally hated feces, cockroaches, and flies. It was fine to force him to touch and touch them, but no normal person would play with cockroaches and feces for fun.
Lin didn't think about correcting his attitude. This was not his hometown in history, where there was a social atmosphere where 'everything is inferior, only studying is of high quality'. In this mysterious land, learning magic or anything else was just to make a living. Since Leonardo had his own ideas and talents, there was no reason to restrict his development.
Of course, in order to protect this fellow who didn't have much ability to protect himself, Lin gave him a ring, one of the Nine Rings. He also explained its uses and advantages, and asked him to consider whether he was willing to expose his whereabouts to his teacher. Leonardo didn't have much of an aversion to this life-saving magic item. He probably just wore it like a normal ring.
Also, catching someone and talking about his hometown dialect was one of the things that made him happiest. As long as Leonardo didn't do anything outrageous and provided food and shelter, he couldn't be chased away even if he wanted to.
Not only Lin, but the two girls and the Lich also learned Italian, or more accurately, the dialect of Florence in the Middle Ages. If Lin remembered correctly, the official language of that era was Latin.
It was just that Leonardo's strange attitude towards magic made Lin angry and amused at the same time. If he wanted to move something, he could use a Potency spell to buff himself, but Leonardo just didn't want it. However, if he wanted to use a magic puppet that could lift heavy things — which the Silver Bearded Dwarves had plenty of — to move them, no matter how heavy they were, Leonardo wouldn't reject it.
He didn't reject using magic, but he didn't reject using the "engineering machine" in his eyes. Several times, Lin wanted to tell this new apprentice that the essence of that thing was still a type of magic that was based on some metaphysical and unfathomable energy.
However, considering that it was already sad enough to be a transmigrator, he didn't want to destroy his worldview as a fellow transmigrator. Not to mention that he had grown up in the Middle Ages and had a narrow worldview.
He thought that these comfortable days could continue, but even if he didn't go out looking for trouble, trouble would come knocking on his door. At least for this uninvited guest, Marco Lin didn't think it was another opportunity. The Emperor of the Guevana Empire, Armin Casarnia's special envoy! Grand Duke Riza's eldest son, Aja, had come to visit.
This noble, who was about the same age as Lin Li, was much more ostentatious than Grand Duke Carvey.
Back then, Grand Duke Carvey ran around with half of the Duke's guards, but when he came to Lin Li's house, it was only him, two guards, a servant, and a Warlock Saint. When the Emperor's special envoy, Aja, arrived, in addition to the twenty family knights, he also brought twenty palace knights, who represented the Emperor's military force. A total of forty knights and warhorses almost filled up the courtyard, which didn't have much space left.
The reason why Lin Li recognized these armed men was because the coat of arms on the twenty palace knights was exactly the same as the one on the mage who had caused trouble for him in math class. And that mage claimed to be a member of the Emperor's personal palace guards of the Guevana Empire.
Although it had been more than a year, that mage was still persevering in math class, and it was obvious that his hairline was receding. But as a civil servant, could he take leave for so long? Or was the math class actually a mission that he was sent out on, so he was supported by the public?
As for the other twenty family knights, it was simply because the coat of arms on their bodies was the same as the one on the special envoy. Not to mention the gorgeous equipment, the calm performance of the warhorses showed that they were able to withstand the pressure from the dragons. They were all good horses that were one in a million. The armed forces of this family were not inferior to the Emperor's palace guards at all.
Seeing the mounts of this group of people, and thinking of the mounts of Grand Duke Carvey and the Duke's guards, Lin Li felt like he was going out and seeing a fleet of Ferraris. There was not a single cheap car that would go limp after running, all of them were luxury cars!
Speaking of which, were sports cars sold at the price of cabbages or something? Why did it feel like the streets were full of them? After living in the southwest peninsula of the Maze Continent for more than ten years, what he saw were not horses, but mules.
However, he didn't spend much time admiring them. After the Empire's special envoy called the person out, he looked at the person who had not completely recovered from his skeleton-like appearance with a look of disdain.
He took out a paper edict from the letter tube in his attendant's hand and read it aloud, "To Mage Guebrache Tripwood. I, the Emperor of the Holy Guevana Empire, Armin Cazarnia, confer upon thee the title of Royal Magic Advisor. Upon seeing this edict, immediately go to the Imperial Capital to take up the post, and the Empire will facilitate it. Armin the Defender. "
After reading it aloud with a strange accent, the special envoy unfolded the edict in front of Lin Li, displaying His Majesty the Emperor's signature and seal. He handed it forward with the same look of disgust, saying, "Mage, I, His Majesty the Emperor, have forgiven our former enmity and recruited you as the Royal Magic Advisor. Pack your things and follow me back to the Imperial Capital now. "
