Doctor of Science's Journey into Another World

Chapter 255 Notes and the Weeping Stone

Tomorrow is the day they leave Kled. After lunch, Kalia took Yula to the newly opened market in the southern suburbs of Kled to buy souvenirs.

With Youla's lazy personality, it would be impossible for her to walk for a whole day like an ordinary girl, but when Bai Hao promised to reimburse all the expenses for the day, Youla immediately went out with Kalia happily.

Xing Lili originally planned to serve Bai Hao as always, but was eventually persuaded by Bai Hao to enjoy the girls' activities. If it weren't for Bai Hao's mandatory request, Xing Lili would definitely work without a holiday all year round.

After the girls left, Bai Hao immediately looked at the two items on the table excitedly. They were a blood-stained book and a black stone. They were both gifts given to him by Duke Krey.

Zelianus was very smart because he accurately found Bai Hao's favorite thing among countless gifts, and he successfully obtained the Campbell family's promise of commercial support to the Kled Territory.

This book is the research notes of Jia Nanyuan who died tragically not long ago, and this dark stone is his latest research result - the Weeping Stone!

Jia Nanyuan was a very famous dark elf scholar in southern Xinjiang, and his research direction happened to be the magicization of magic stones, which Bai Hao was most concerned about. The research notes he left behind were definitely priceless treasures.

Previously, Dr. Jia of Zangyuan brutally killed him in order to perform his secret technique. However, according to the tacit rules of the Central Plains nobles, the remains of anyone who died in their own territory would belong to the local lord!

Even if Jia Nanyuan's wife or son came to Zelianus to ask for the relic, it would be impossible. Now, this priceless treasure has been given to Bai Hao by Zelianus in the name of the lord.

Bai Hao couldn't help but shook his head as he looked at the large dark red bloodstains on the notebook. In a sense, Bachelor Jia Nanyuan died in his favorite research.

When I opened the cold book cover, what came into view was a lifelike portrait of Jia Nanyuan's handsome face, with his full name and a bunch of densely packed titles written in some scribbled language next to it.

Bai Hao put his hands together and performed a standard Moon Goddess moment of silence for the deceased scholar, then began to read the magic stone research notes with great interest.

This notebook describes in detail Jia Nanyuan's twenty fantastic ideas and conjectures, most of which are related to the Weeping Stone in Bai Hao's hand.

At the same time, the Weeping Stone has also been successfully transformed by Jia Nanyuan. This unremarkable stone may be the only stone in the entire Walterlan continent that can store intermediate magic.

Not only that, this Weeping Stone also greatly reduces the loss of magic power during injection, and at the same time significantly improves the utilization rate of magic power.

This is definitely a research result that will cause a sensation in the entire Walterland academic community, and Jia Nanyuan may just be passing through the Krey Territory. Bai Hao guessed that his final destination should be Scott.

Scott can almost be said to be the academic center of the Walterlan continent, not only because the city’s geographical location is right in the center of the continent, but more importantly, it happens to be the cultural intersection of humans and elves!

Nowadays, scholars choose to publish most of their research results in Scott, because this allows their latest research to be spread across the continent at the fastest speed.

Bai Hao was convinced that if he took Jia Nanyuan's research results for himself and published them in Scott under his own name a few days later, Bai Hao would definitely become famous in the Walterland academic community and gain unimaginable great reputation.

"Haha, this guy Zelianus actually had this in mind. He really underestimated me, Bai Hao!"

Zelianus must have read the research notebook carefully before giving the gift. Bai Hao believed that Zelianus, who was still rebuilding his homeland, would definitely use the notebook to gain reputation compared to the so-called scholar's integrity.

But he chose to give this priceless treasure to Bai Hao. It seems that between stealing the scholar's reputation and the Campbell family's financial support, Zelianus chose the latter.

After finishing reading, Bai Hao slowly closed his notebook. He smiled, shook his head and sighed, "I, Bai Hao, have been a scholar for two lifetimes. How could I become a pseudo-scholar who pursues fame and fortune?"

Bai Hao didn't care about the so-called reputation of a scholar. To be remembered for eternity? To be admired by thousands of people? These were just weeds on the road of research and exploration.

The fragrance of blooming wild flowers and the freshness of green grass are indeed soothing, but it is too stupid to stop for the scenery along the road, or even reveal an ugly face to steal or rob.

Bai Hao will not slow down at all because of this. Reaching the end of the road is his ultimate ideal!

No matter how shocking the contents of the scholar's notes left by Jia Nanyuan were, Bai Hao would eventually send them to Scott and publish them in the name of Jia Nanyuan.

This is the research result of a great scholar named Jia Nanyuan. Bai Hao has always respected such a powerful and pure scholar.

Unfortunately, Jia Nanyuan's method of transforming the Weeping Stone used dark element magic, and it was an extremely special high-level dark element magic secret technique, which made Bai Hao feel troubled.

Dark elemental mages are as rare as light elemental mages, not to mention great magicians like Jia Nanyuan. Such high-level dark elemental mages almost all belong to black magic organizations.

When thinking of the black magic organization, the first name that popped into Bai Hao's mind was Zang Yuan. Presumably, they should have also obtained Jia Nanyuan's research results.

The ultimate goal of magic is to allow ordinary people to use magic at will, and the use of magic by living beings is no longer restricted by race or talent. Orcs like Xing Lili can also use high-level magic like gifted wizards.

“It’s really too difficult. Materials and methods are indispensable, and so are universality and flexibility!”

Bai Hao pondered secretly and planned to go to Nako Lake to ask the Siren Tribe in person about the materials. As for the method of transforming the magic stone, Bai Hao placed his hopes on Scott's library and magic school.

The Swart Empire is the human empire with the strongest academic atmosphere. The library of just one dukedom is so exaggerated, not to mention Scott, the imperial capital.

Bai Hao didn't even dare to imagine what kind of outrageous building the national library there would be, but Bai Hao was sure that he would die happily.

With endless scholarly manuscripts, endless research reports, endless debate conferences, and countless great scholars and academic institutions, Scott is definitely a paradise for scholars and an utopia for researchers.

Bai Hao was really worried that he would not be able to leave Scott after going there, even though he had promised his father that he would go back to Omo Empire to go to school...
