Doctor of Science's Journey into Another World

In a few days, Bai Hao will set off for the Swart Empire. Today, he plans to say goodbye to some familiar people in Campbell County. After all, his trip will take at least half a year.

After breakfast, Bai Hao deliberately chose the most common white wizard cloak in Campbell County. The cloak had a loose hood that completely covered Bai Hao's face.

In addition to Xing Lili, who was the personal guard, Kalia also clamored to come along, so the three of them set off for the outer city area of ​​Campbell County.

Although Bai Hao lived in the most luxurious inner city area of ​​Campbell County, there was no other place to go in the inner city except for exquisite and elegant jewelry and clothing stores and expensive but not very useful wizard supplies stores.

As for those high-end banquet halls where nobles and wealthy businessmen often gathered to talk and chat, or the classical music hall that Bai Hao called a hospital for insomniacs, Bai Hao would only be extremely reluctant to stay there when it was necessary for family activities.

Of course, there was no shortage of brothels in the wealthy Campbell Territory. In fact, many small nobles made their main income from running brothels. However, not all prostitutes were voluntary. Most of them were brought in by nobles and wealthy businessmen through deception.

Since Elsa has been in charge of internal affairs in Campbell Territory for the past decade or so, all kinds of deceitful and fraudulent means are strictly prohibited in Campbell Territory. There is a lack of fresh blood, and brothels are often the focus of law enforcement officers, which makes brothel business increasingly difficult.

However, the brothel business corresponds to the most primitive desires of human beings. Even though the prices continue to rise and the quality of prostitutes declines year by year, there will always be an endless stream of customers to take care of the brothel business.

The carriage that Bai Hao took to the outer city area was generally an old brown-black carriage. Such carriages were not only owned by every civilian household in the inner city, but even by some merchants in the outer city.

Every time Bai Hao needed to go out to purchase materials for research experiments, he would choose to travel in such a carriage in a low-key manner, thus avoiding a lot of unnecessary trouble.

Inside the car, Bai Hao's indifferent expression formed a sharp contrast with the excited Kalia. Kalia always had an undying enthusiasm for everything in the outer city. Occasionally, when she saw a snack stand, Kalia would beg Bai Hao to stop the car and buy some.

Xing Lili was driving the carriage in front, also wearing a hood to hide her face. The old carriage was moving slowly on the soft dirt road in the outer city. Occasionally, a few energetic children would chase the carriage and play around.

Kalia was concentrating on eating a large ball of cloud candy. The stall owner was a low-level wind elemental mage. This cloud candy was made by him using some simple wind elemental magic, but in Bai Hao's opinion, it was almost like something from his previous life.

Bai Hao looked out the window at several children aged seven or eight who were running after the carriage. They were wearing shabby clothes, but there were no holes in their clothes and there was some cotton wool in them. The children had rosy faces and their eyes were filled with the innocence that is unique to children.

Bai Hao knew clearly that such ordinary civilian children who could have enough food and clothing could probably only be seen in the wealthy Campbell Territory. The civilians in most aristocratic territories were generally hungry and ragged.

For example, in the territory of Capet, where natural disasters and plagues continued unabated, although the efforts of the Cult of the Moon Goddess and Count Capet prevented civilians from cannibalizing their own children, it was still common for people to starve to death or die of disease.

One year, a plague broke out in Capet, and Kalia happened to come to Campbell to go to school, so she told Bai Hao about the scene on the streets there.

Many pale and skinny people sat numbly on the streets. Sometimes you could see people who died of starvation or disease being carried to the square for mass cremation. The air was often filled with a strange smell of cooked meat.

Soon, Bai Hao arrived at a grocery store. The owner of the store was a slightly plump middle-aged man named Dolly. He had sparse hair and simple clothes, but he wore a pair of exquisite gold-rimmed glasses.

Dolly recognized Bai Hao's carriage from a distance, and hurried to the door of the shop waiting for Bai Hao to get off. Dolly was a smart man, and he knew that Bai Hao was of noble status.

When Bai Hao came to the store to buy something for the first time, Dolly could tell from Bai Hao's appearance and the clean and smooth coins he used when paying the bill that Bai Hao was not an ordinary person. At that time, Bai Hao told Dolly his identity considering that he would be a frequent patron in the future.

When Dolly first knew Bai Hao's identity, he said he would never accept the money, but he reluctantly accepted it after Bai Hao insisted. After a while, Dolly soon realized that Bai Hao was not one of those noble dandies, but he still had to follow proper etiquette.

Bai Hao got off the carriage, and Dolly, who had been waiting at the door, quickly took off his hat and bowed, giving Bai Hao a standard aristocratic salute.

Bai Hao nodded slightly, motioning Xing Lili to take out a bag of coins and hand it to Duoli, then slowly said: "Mr. Duoli, this is the money owed on credit for purchasing materials last time, please count it."

Duoli took the purse handed over by Xinglili with both hands, weighed it casually and put it away, stroked his mustache and smiled, "No need to count, Lord Viscount, I trust you, have you ever made a mistake in paying the bill in all these years? What materials will Lord Viscount come to purchase this time? You can give me the list first, and I will sort it out and send it to the inner city for you later."

Bai Hao shook his head and said, "I came here to say goodbye to you. I will not be in Campbell Manor for about half a year. I asked you to find special materials before. If you find them, please send them to Campbell Manor. My butler, Mr. Michel, will naturally give you a generous reward."

Dolly nodded repeatedly, but soon looked embarrassed and said, "The stone that the Viscount asked me to find that can absorb light elements has not been found yet. I only have some information that is hard to tell whether it is true or false. It is said that someone in the northern Seth Empire once found a stone that glows at night in the wild. I have asked someone to look for it. Maybe I can give it to you when you return to Campbell Territory from outside."

Bai Hao nodded, chatted with Dolly for a few more words, and then got in the car to head to the next destination.

Dolly is the owner of the largest grocery store in the outer city. Dolly's ancestors have taken root here hundreds of years ago. Therefore, Dolly's store has a wide variety and quantity of goods. Naturally, his procurement channels and familiar merchant connections are also spread throughout the Omo Empire. This is why Bai Hao entrusted Dolly to find materials.

Bai Hao wanted to find luminous stones and luminous pearls similar to those in his previous life. This special stone that can absorb light and then release it might be able to absorb the magic power of the light element and serve the purpose of storing magic power.

Not only that, if the magic power that has been converted into magic is injected into this kind of stone in advance, can it become a disposable magic output item?

Bai Hao has countless guesses about the application of magic in his mind, but specific experiments are extremely difficult at this stage. However, Bai Hao did not give up, so he carried the Moon Goddess Memo with him, which recorded many experiments that are currently impossible to realize.
