The exchange team in the academic city has returned to the road. Although there are no other caravans, the number of the team has not decreased too much, because in the past few days in Omran, there are two more academic cities from other kingdoms and regions. The exchange team came to Omran, the three teams merged together, and additional mercenaries were hired to prevent accidental hiring, so that the final number was still around three or four hundred.

Because the team has become bloated again, it has become inconvenient to travel by land, and some cultists who have not been cleaned up are scattered in the nearby mountains. These cultists and heretics who have already reached the end of the road can do crazy things. , once encountering the team, there may be casualties, so after a brief discussion with the main instructors of the three teams, they finally decided to rent a boat and travel by water to the emerald city, an important port on the inland river of the Kingdom of Teresa.

The Emerald City is located in the hinterland of the kingdom. It is much safer than the surrounding area of ​​Omran, a border city. Basically, no cultists and heretics dare to operate there. It will be much safer to go overland again at that time. , although doing so will take some long detours and waste a lot of time, but in terms of safety, it is much better than going directly overland.

So the main instructors of the exchange team went directly to the city government of Omran, rented ten inland cargo ships through the city government, and simply changed them to passenger ships, and then continued to go upstream against the rapids.

If in the past, boats were going retrograde on the turbulent torrent river, they could only rely on trackers to pull them on the shore, but now most of the boats added are equipped with steam engines, which can easily sail against the current through the power of steam engines.

However, these inland ships do not use propellers, but some special row paddles. This is mainly because a very tough aquatic plant grows in the torrent river. Using the propellers will easily get entangled by the aquatic plants. There is no such problem.

Because the water of the Rapids River is very fast, in order to make the boats stable and avoid the sudden rapids to overturn the boats, the ten boats are connected together with live buckles in two rows side by side. The planks are fixed and can walk around each other.

Although the scenery on both sides of the Jiliu River is very good, it will make you tired after watching this scenery for a long time, and everyone's attention will naturally shift to the inside of the team. For example, are there any outstanding students recruited this time? What interesting things, etc., and Leo and Sylvia, who were outsiders, quickly became the center of the conversation.

After the scholars from the other two teams who came together learned about Leo and Sylvia from the mouths of Delkan and others, they showed very high enthusiasm for the two, and even in the subsequent exchanges, they In his enthusiasm, there is not only respect for those with extraordinary knowledge, but also some flattering behaviors that should not have appeared on them.

However, what is puzzling is that this kind of flattering behavior also appeared in Delkan and the others, and compared with the previous attitude of Delkan and others towards them, there has been a significant change.

Leo was also puzzled by the changes in the attitudes of Delkan and others, so he asked side-by-side, only to find that the slight changes in the attitudes of these scholars were all caused by money.

The academic city has a wide variety of research subjects. There are more than 700 formal research projects in statistics alone, and there are thousands of other research projects arising from the hobbies of scholars. These research projects need to be obtained from the academic city. Funds can only be started. Although Xuecheng has huge wealth, it cannot withstand the consumption of so many projects. Therefore, some research projects that have no future in the eyes of management will only provide basic research funds, or even not provide research at all. funds.

In this case, to keep the research project going, the academics who lead the project have to find funding for themselves.

However, the merchants and nobles who can provide it are not fools. They naturally cannot spend a lot of money to support some research projects that are unlikely to bring them any benefits. The scholars of the academy are also arrogant and can't let go. To deal with nobles and businessmen, not to mention to please them, so basically the research projects abandoned by the management of the academy will become dead projects.

In addition, almost every Citadel scholar has one or two dead projects on hand that have arisen out of their interests and are waiting for funding to come back to life.

Today, the appearance of Leo and Sylvia is undoubtedly a huge surprise for their scholars. The relevant knowledge displayed by Leo and Sylvia is no weaker than or even surpassed by the great tutor of the academy, the scholars It's not unacceptable to show respect and flattery in front of these two people.

The most important thing is that the two have a lot of wealth, and in the conversation, they also clearly expressed their interest in various research projects in Xuecheng and are willing to invest. The scholars in the exchange team will naturally not let this investment in their own projects. Opportunity, in their opinion, it is best to get enough financial support for their research projects on the way back to the academy, lest Leo and Sylvia arrive at the academy and find out the real situation and transfer their investment to other in the project.

After learning about the situation, Leo and Sylvia did not show any distaste for these people's deceptive way of pulling funds. Instead, they asked these people to write a detailed research project plan and hand it over to them. Interested projects will be selected to invest sufficient funds.

Afterwards, various research project proposals with strange contents were successively sent to Leo and their cabins. When Leo and Sylvia looked at these proposals, they felt that the academy had stopped supporting these research projects. Financial support is definitely a smart move.

Although Sylvia had predicted that the research subjects in these plans must be very weird before she got the research project proposal, but after reading it carefully, she had to admit that she underestimated the weirdness.

For example, the research subject of a plan is to find out the law of the difference in hair growth in various parts of the human body, why the hair can continue to grow, but the hair on the nose and the private parts stop growing after a certain degree of growth, why some people The body hair on the body is strong, but some people's body hair is like a baby's hair and so on.

Although this research project on hair seems odd to Sylvia, the ultimate goal of the research project is very promising. Bottom hair volume.

Compared with Sylvia, Leo has seen more research projects that are even more bizarre than these research projects, such as projects such as the stimulation of human taste buds by the nasal secretions of the Moss.

It is precisely because of the difference in knowledge that Leo easily finds a large number of research projects that can produce different benefits from these private research subjects of scholars who are considered by the city to have no research value and potential. The hair research that Ya thought was too weird was the first investment subject that Leo selected and signed a contract with.

After that, Leo selected more than a dozen research projects from the hundreds of research projects. Although most of the projects have not been favored by Leo, for these scholars, it is already a very good result. And the scholars who were not selected were not too disappointed.

In order to celebrate the restart of more than a dozen research projects with new funding injections, the chief instructors of the three exchange teams discussed holding a celebration competition for the omniscient card, and even students were allowed to participate, but Leo was unable to do so. are excluded.

The scholars of the other two teams were puzzled by this, but they were shocked to know that Leo had won all the scholars with a clean record before, and their admiration was beyond words.

When the ship arrived in the emerald city, Leo had become the most prestigious and prestigious person in the entire communication team, and even some of the daily affairs of the team would be discussed with an outsider like him.

Delkan jokingly said that if Leo can win all the games in the academy with a 100% record, then he will definitely become the most admired and popular person in the academy, and he may surpass everything in the next election of the dean of the academy. Rules and procedures, from an ordinary scholar directly to the dean of the city.

Although Delkan was joking, the people who heard Delkan's remarks also discussed it very seriously, and felt that this matter was indeed feasible, and also discussed a set of implementation methods, which also made Sylvia and Leo, who didn't care at first, had some careful thoughts.

After sailing safely on the Rapids for a few days, the fleet arrived at the Emerald City.

Under the guidance of the staff at the wharf, the ships docked at the corresponding wharf one after another. When everyone got off the ship, they all felt that there was something wrong with the atmosphere in the city.

The Emerald City is one of the important inland ports on the Rapids, but it is famous not because of its port, but because of the emerald green color of the entire city.

All the stones needed for the construction of the Green City are a local greenstone. Before this greenstone was mined, it showed a very ugly gray-green, so no one had ever used it before. building materials.

It was not until later that it was discovered that this greenstone was polished and soaked in water for a period of time, and the color changed from an unsightly gray-green to a very beautiful emerald green. Subsequently, more and more people used greenstone to build houses. Buildings throughout the city were replaced with greenstone.

Emerald City seems to have a soft spot for green, they not only replaced all buildings with emerald green, but also hired the best garden scholars in the city to plant them in every available place in the city. A variety of plants were added, and finally the emerald city and the emerald forest next to the city were perfectly integrated.

On the streets of the emerald city, some primitive animals of the emerald forest can often be seen walking on the city streets. Even some ferocious carnivorous beasts become very well behaved after entering the emerald city, as long as they do not attack or provoked it , it will not attack humans.

Some people once suspected that the scholar who planned the garden for the green city was a natural shaman, so when he planted every plant, he applied natural shaman spells to it, and primitive animals were subjected to natural spells. Influence will become peaceful and harmonious with people.

In this regard, Xuecheng and Emerald City neither admitted nor denied it, as if they were playing a riddle with those good deeds.

Although the natural shaman has not been included in the list of heretics by the Church of the True God, the church does not have a good impression of this kind of supernatural power master, and will suppress it whenever there is a chance, and the Kingdom of Teresa has become these natural The shaman's preferred refuge, the Green City is the most recognized place to live, so you can see many natural shamans living freely in the city, which is also a very famous scene in the Green City.

On the way to the emerald city, when scholars introduced the emerald city, they repeatedly mentioned the natural shaman who lived freely in the city, and some people even called the emerald city the city of shamans.

However, on the streets of the emerald city now, there are very few natural shamans in various costumes mentioned by the public before, only two or three sporadically walking on the streets, and the residents of the emerald city seem to have any concerns. When the natural shamans approached, they avoided them far away, and those natural shamans did not show dissatisfaction in the face of this situation, and their faces were always worried and sad.

The people who felt that the atmosphere was not right did not stop on the road, and went directly to the apartment in Xuecheng, where they settled down, and when everyone unpacked, they also inquired about the reason why the atmosphere in the emerald city was so wrong.

It turned out that just a few days ago, the leader of a shaman organization and his followers in the city suddenly mutated into some tree monsters in public, attacking the people around them. When the city guards and heresy hunters arrived, the scene There have been hundreds of casualties.

Although the city guards and the heretical hunters joined forces to solve all the natural shamans who mutated into treemen, the casualties were also very heavy. uukanshu. com Including ordinary people, there were more than 500 casualties in total. Such huge casualties have never been seen since the establishment of the Emerald City.

The natural shaman who was originally respected in the city immediately became the object of rejection and suspicion by everyone. The city government also immediately imprisoned and detained a large number of natural shamans who may be related to the shaman organization that caused the tragedy. After the interrogation is over, it is confirmed that there is no involvement before they are allowed to leave.

Although many natural shamans have been determined to be innocent by the city government and were released immediately, the aftermath of the massacre has not disappeared, and the feelings of rejection against them are gradually fermenting. Can provide them with shelter and food, and now they may only go to the emerald forest to live with primitive animals.

Those innocent natural shamans are very aggrieved by the rejection of city residents, but in addition to the grievances, they are even more worried that this rejection and resistance will affect their ability to continue living in this city that is completely in line with their hearts and minds. Breeding in their hearts and affecting the surrounding plants, the green city plants that never withered actually withered, and these yellowed plants also made the green city look as ugly and ugly as it was covered with abscesses .
