"It looks like you're fine, but I'm worried. As Ingres left the chamber, a familiar sound sounded in his ears.

This is Sanders' voice.

Ingres followed the fluctuation of energy and blended his voice into it.

As Ingres and Sanders spoke, Muse and Midora, who were walking in front, seemed to have noticed something, glanced back at Ingres, and didn't say much, but their pace became a little slower.

"I'm going to go to the R&D institute now, and I'll be back when it's over. By the way, does the mentor know about my brother's situation?"

"Leon came to take his salute before, and that friend of yours, Nausica, has left. ”

Sanders said something more to Angel, and it wasn't until Ingres arrived at the door to enter the R&D Institute that he said, "The R&D Institute has a shielding field, and other things will be talked about when you come back." ”

With that, Sanders cut off the sound technique.

Angels also walked into the R&D institute in due course.

As before, along the cliff wall path in the shape of "Zhi", they extended all the way to the top hall of the Fantasy Machine City.

Muse hands the access card to a mechanical puppet and asks it to inject new information.

Next, Muse and Midora sat down and continued their conversation with Angels.

This exchange time is not long, but it is just to wrap up some unfinished topics before. When the story was almost finished, Muse couldn't wait to conduct an experimental verification.

In the end, only Midora and Angel were left staring at each other.

"Since the muse is busy, then I will tell you about some rules of the R&D institute. Midora muttered.

With Midora's narration, Angel gradually has a general understanding of the R&D Institute. From the outside world, the R&D Institute is a sacred institution, but in fact, it is a subjective idea whether the institution is sacred or not, but this is definitely the most loosely managed institution that Ingres has ever heard.

There are many benefits that can be obtained in the R&D Institute, such as knowledge interaction with fellow alchemists, deepening the discussion of alchemy topics, an almost unlimited supply of ordinary materials, cherishing the right of first refusal to purchase materials, and special materials can even be exchanged for points...... Wait a minute.

There are basically no special obligations, only two things, which may be considered more mandatory measures.

First, teach some alchemists who remain in the Machine City, and you will earn points for teaching, and the points can be exchanged for a lot of things.

Second, and the thing that all members avoid the most, is to sit in the R&D Institute!

The director of the R&D institute is irreplaceable, the muse. But those who sit in the R&D institute are not necessarily the muses, but in rotation.

Sitting in the R&D institute can actually be understood as acting dean. When you become the acting dean, the power can be raised to a very large level, which may seem very tempting, but it will also cost a lot.

One of the most frustrating things for the members is that they spend a lot of time doing things that are very tedious but have to be done in person.

For example, all R&D institutes negotiate with other organizations, arrange the work of R&D institutes, formulate projects, publish works, and follow-up ...... Wait a minute.

These things make the people in charge feel very troublesome.

The life of an alchemist can basically be summed up as "home and freedom".

Either he is a muse, or he loves freedom like Gandalf.

Muse stays in the R&D Institute all year round to conduct alchemy research, and basically doesn't go out, so all the things in Sky Machinery City are pushed to Rosen, and he is only responsible for producing alchemy results.

Gandalf's nickname is "The Light Walker", and the walking in it actually speaks for itself. Wander the world all year round, looking for inspiration along the way.

Muse and Gandalf represent two alchemist attitudes, either of which are the opposite of sitting in the R&D Institute to handle all kinds of chores.

And the members of the R&D institute are either muse-type or Gandalf-type.

Therefore, almost everyone does not like to sit in the R&D institute.

Only when it is my turn will I touch my nose and come over hard.

Of course, whether you are teaching or sitting in the R&D institute, you can choose not to come. For example, many members have not come to the R&D institute for thousands of years, and there is still no punishment, but correspondingly, you will not get any convenience.

It's okay if you only want the convenience of the R&D Institute and don't want to contribute to the R&D Institute, but in that case, the other members will naturally be dissatisfied, you will only be more and more marginalized, and no other members will communicate with you for alchemy.

"So, if I join the R&D Institute, I will also be arranged?" Ingres couldn't help but ask after listening.

"Not yet, because the R&D Institute still needs a basic assessment, which covers many aspects, and I don't expect to make arrangements for you in a short period of time. But in the future, if you have been enjoying the convenience of the R&D institute and have passed the assessment, you will definitely be arranged. Midora paused: "Although you won't be in charge now, if you have time, you might as well come to Sky Machinery City to teach a few lessons, some alchemists don't think that the technique is not enough, but their ideas may give you a great touch." Moreover, the points obtained from the lectures are also very useful, and you can consult Antonio later. ”

Angel nodded understandingly: "I have never taught it, and I don't know if I can do it." ”

"Granny Nails talked to me before, you go to her alchemy shop, but there are apprentices chasing you and wanting to be your assistant. In fact, teaching and bringing an assistant are generally about the same. They don't understand, it's their business, and it's none of your business. Midora smiled: "Moreover, with your current popularity, if you start a class, I estimate that whether it is gold and stone science, pharmacy, or even some more special schools of alchemy, you will want to come and hear about it." ”

"Now that classes are open, I don't know if I'm going to teach or being watched. Ingres shuddered at the thought of that scene.

"Anyway, you don't lose, the more people you have, the more points you earn. "Midora doesn't care about being watched.

Angel still shook his head: "Forget it, I won't start classes for the time being." Also, I won't be experimenting anytime soon, and I have more important things to deal with. ”

Whether it's Jon's business, Toby's business, including his own promotion, he needs to be one step ahead, and other things such as teaching and coming to the R&D institute to communicate, these are secondary.

Midora nodded, Sanders had come to him not long ago and said something, so he knew what was going on with Angel.

"In any case, it is a great pleasure for you to join the R&D Institute. ”

Midora's words have made a knot here for the time being. However, Ingres's access card had not yet arrived, so he asked about one thing he had been puzzled about during the previous ceremony.

"Lady Baucia, who was sitting next to me, her name always sounds familiar to me, who is she?" Ingres asked.

"It's normal for you to feel familiar with Baucia, do you know the Shuya balance formula?"

Angel was stunned for a moment, and suddenly reacted: "Baucia's triangular conjunction!"

"Yes, this is an alchemical magic formula that modifies a loophole in Shuya's balance formula, which was discovered and named by Baucia. Midora said with great emotion: "Baucia is a very genius alchemist, and Granny Nails once even said that she may be the closest person to the mysterious realm in the current research and development institute except for the muse. ”

"But now, you've overtaken me. Midora laughed.

Angel didn't expect that Baucia would be able to modify this basic alchemy formula, and it would be successful. Sure enough, the members of the R&D institute cannot be underestimated.

Next, Midora talked to Angel about the members in the conference room this time.

Overall, these members are neutral, which is a relatively moderate type. None of the radicals, such as Dongla, came this time...... By the way, there is also a digression, the pool filled with special reaction liquid that Angel saw in the Fantasy Machinery City before, the owner is indeed Dongla.

Among them, Midora specifically mentions Maguston.

"Don't blame Margustone, his personality isn't actually radical. Midora sighed, "The main thing is that your position is a little vague now, and Maguston has to do so. ”

Whether Midora's cheeks were useful or not, he himself did not know.

Because, he didn't know if the relationship between Angel and Frost Moon would improve, or if it would continue to be ambiguous, or even go towards the opposite side of the fierce side.

While they were about to talk, Antonio, who glowed with a pale blue glow, came from a distance.

Antonio looked at Angels and handed over the access card in his hand: "The information in it has been saved, and it will belong to Mr. Pat exclusively in the future." This card can also be used as Mr. Mechanic's ID card in Sky Machinery City. ”

Angel nodded and took it.

Midora also told him before that this access card has a very big effect, not only in the R&D Institute, but also in other facilities in the Sky Machinery City, and it can even enter the endless corridor.

The Nova Tournament, which is still in full swing at this moment, is actually the qualification to enter the Endless Corridor.

After Antonio handed the access card to Ingres, he added, "However, there is some information in this that is not perfect, such as the name of Mr. Pat. Because there are too many names in the Gaiden right now, and I don't know which one to use, so it's empty for the time being. If you need to register, you can come to me at any time. ”

Midora also said at this time: "Speaking of which, I'm also curious, what name are you going to use?"

Ingres actually thought about the matter of correcting his name, although he had ideas in his heart, but he did not make a conclusion.

Midora thought that Angel didn't have an idea yet, so she said: "The name is just a codename, after all, the meaning of the name is very delicate, and it would be more appropriate to have the name as a buffer." You don't have to worry, anyway, many people don't have a nickname until they are officially wizards, it all depends on your willingness. ”

Angel nodded: "The name matter, when I have an idea, I will tell Antonio as soon as possible." ”
