"Nothing."
Faced with the question, Anmos calmly replied, "The lighthouse's effects have been experimentally tested and are proven to stabilize the borders of the secret realm, repel creatures from the Dream Realm, and provide long-term protection for adventurers. It can also interact with the Guidance Beacon and the Dream Amulet, enhancing their performance and charging them."
The bird-like Transcendent asked, "The data says the current lighthouse is just a simplified version. If there's enough funding and time, can the complete version achieve the desired effect? That's the envisioned 'Star Torch' state?"
Anmos said firmly: "Yes."
He spoke with confidence and righteousness, completely dispelling any nervousness he had before going on stage.
When soliciting investment, the most taboo words are vague, uncertain, etc.
If you are timid, the funds will grow wings and fly away even if they are cooked.
Only by bragging bravely and getting the funding will you have the right to discuss the next research matters.
Since you're selling a product to important figures, you naturally have to exaggerate and boast about how awesome it is, even if it doesn't reach the target. Not to mention that he even made a simplified version, and the results are obvious to all, it's indeed impressive.
This made him more confident.
There was silence on the platform for a moment. It was difficult for the mediocre people below to know what the extraordinary people were thinking, but it did not prevent them from speculating that the extraordinary people were now discussing this plan in a way that they could not know.
If the plan is approved, this scholar will become a hot new star.
Some people have tried to obtain Anmos's resume, thinking about how to please him and build a good relationship with him.
There was a restless atmosphere in the audience, as if a real gaze was cast down from above, and all around suddenly fell silent.
Immediately, Chaofan announced their decision: "Since you are confident, then give it a try. I look forward to the day when you accomplish your mission."
Those who achieve success must be extraordinary.
The extraordinary people who presided over this meeting have all gone very far on the path. They expect Anmos to accomplish his mission, which shows that Anmos is not far from the realm of the extraordinary.
People looked at Anmos more eagerly.
The meeting was still going on, and there were still some eye-catching products, but the audience seemed to have lost interest because of the excellent products before them. Anmos' performance had left its peers far behind and stole their glory.
The participants picked out information about the Anmos project, trying to find out what the "lighthouse" is and why it can attract the attention of extraordinary people.
When the meeting ended, Noita returned to the workshop, where Anmos' students and colleagues were cheering.
The list of projects launched by the association has just been released, and the products of their workshop are at the top of the list. How can this not make the students who have been studying alchemy day and night with their mentor happy?
Because they also have a share of credit for the development of the product.
Noita walked into the workshop quietly, came to a bell stand, and rang the bronze bell.
The bell attracted the attention of the scholars, and they all turned around and looked at Noita.
Noita clapped her hands and cheered, "Let's cheer for Master Anmos. He has earned us enough investment to realize our dreams. In the coming time, you will be able to obtain better instruments for experiments, and more advanced knowledge will be available to you."
The beautiful person pointed to the door, and following her slender jade finger, people saw Anmos with a happy face.
"Mentor!" "Anmos!"
Students and colleagues crowded around him, cheering for him.
The warm welcome ceremony lasted for a long time. When it quieted down, the team members looked at Anmos eagerly, wanting him to say a few words.
Anmos's face was tense out of habit, but joy could still be seen from the upturned corners of his mouth and in his eyes.
He said kindly, "In that case, let's eat first."
The crowd fell silent for a second, and then a louder cheer followed.
"Okay, let's eat first!"
People left the workshop in a bustling atmosphere. Noita didn't know who led her into the crowd. She lowered her head and saw the cold Luhua.
She held her finger and led her along with the crowd.
The conversations around were ambiguous, as if coming from a distant horizon, and no one present noticed the presence of Luhua.
Noita plucked up the courage to rub Luhua's head, but before he could put his claws on it, he was hit by an invisible force.
She discussed with Luhua: "Can't you let me rest for a day?"
Luhua replied: "You are very useful. Letting you rest is a waste of resources."
"You're making me look like a mere tool. And weren't they originally told it was a casual position with little work to do? Why have I been asked to do so much since I took over?"
"Your reason. If you proposed a research project that has no practical significance, I wouldn't have found these teams for you. The responsibility lies with you." Lu Hua shook her head and pointed at the other party. "Having dinner with them will be good for you."
The cold tone that sounded like an order made Noita shake her head.
"If you're doing this for my own good, you should be gentler. Besides, I was planning to go to the dinner anyway. If you hadn't blinded their senses, I would have already started chatting with them."
Although Noita is an investor, his age is not much different from that of Anmos' students; they are of the same age.
Although these young men and women were exhausted from struggling with various computational experiments all day, they were also energetic young people outside of the experiments. They had many common topics with Neuta and they got along very well.
"My fault."
Luhua decisively admitted her mistake, and her cold and indifferent face was quite cute.
Noita quietly picked up a strand of Luhua's hair and pulled it gently, but to her surprise, the hair was torn off.
broken?
"Ok?"
Noita looked at the green hair in her hand uncertainly, and observed Luhua's expression guiltily. She knew how painful it was to have her hair pulled out. She wouldn't be beaten, would she?
Fortunately, Luhua looked calm and had no intention of taking advantage of the situation.
But the hair in her hand slowly grew longer, sprouted, and in the blink of an eye became a flexible branch.
[This is the blessing of an extraordinary person. Holding the green branch, all fatal wounds aimed at you will fall into the air. The wound will not be able to catch you.]
Lu Hua said, "This gift for you contains some of my power. If you are unfortunate enough to encounter something bad, it will protect your life."
"Thank you."
Noita thanked him, took off the firewood she was wearing around her neck, and tried to pass the slender branch through the hole of the firewood, but she tried for a long time but couldn't get it through.
Luhua glanced at the fire, and the branches automatically wrapped around the golden chain of the fire and merged with it.
Noita narrowed her eyes in a smile and put the firelight back on.
The gifts from the elder sister should be placed together with the gifts from the younger sister.
With vague disrespectful thoughts flashing through her mind, Noita asked Luhua, "Would you like to go to the dinner party with me? Just pretend to be my sister and they'll be happy to take care of you."
"I have something else to do. I hope you have fun." Luhua shook her head slightly and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Run so fast.
Noita was a little disappointed. She really wanted to see Luhua's attitude when she was surrounded by young people.
Pity.
Because Luhua left, the communication sounds from far away in the sky returned in an instant and surrounded Noita.
Several students spoke to Noita without any unusual reaction: "Ms. Noita, what do you think is the relationship between time and light?"
Along the way, Luhua created illusions to communicate with these people on behalf of Noita. Now it seems that Luhua has good social skills and talks very harmoniously with the students.
Noita seamlessly took over the topic and said with a smile: "According to the mainstream school of thought in Chongtianling, light is the magic of time..."
The girl smiled gently and walked into the restaurant with the students.
Chapter 120 Reunion
The joyful dining time continued into the afternoon, with Neuta chatting and laughing with his colleagues and imagining a bright future.
The tower will be built, the star torch will illuminate the world, and the light of ideals will illuminate the bottomless dreams of the deceased gods, bringing wealth, ideals, splendor and glory to Serkar.
Noita listened to Anmos's conversation with others with a calm expression and without saying a word, only speaking a few words when the topic turned to her.
Compared to chatting with these drunk old men, she prefers talking to young people.
When all the food is finished, the dinner is over.
Anmos announced that everyone would be given two days off to rest and adjust their condition, and then continue the project after the rest.
The holiday naturally caused another round of cheers.
Noita and the students dispersed in a lively manner and disappeared into the crowd in the blink of an eye.
Arriving at the commercial street, Noita slowed down his pace and blended into the crowd like a tourist. In the blink of an eye, he changed his appearance three times and began to stroll around the streets without being recognized by anyone, trying out the newly opened snack shops.
When I was walking into an unknown store, a sound as clear as a bell rang beside me.
"Sister Noita, here, here."
Noita subconsciously turned her head and saw an unfamiliar snow elf sitting at the table, waving at her energetically.
Opposite her, the dashing snow elf sat at a table, eating steaming hot spicy hot pot.
It's an ice dragonfly.
When Noita looked over, Bing Qingting was just holding up the bowl to drink soup with a heroic movement. Because of the name that was suddenly called, a pair of snow-white eyes raised up, and their watery eyes met Noita's gaze.
Noita dared to guarantee that she saw confusion in her eyes.
The spicy and hot soup slid down Bing Qingting's throat. Her eyes widened instantly. She put down the bowl with one hand and covered her throat with the other hand, coughing softly.
Noita walked over to the Ice Dragonfly and sat down, pretending to be innocent and asking the Snow Elf opposite: "What happened to her?"
"Perhaps I'm just too excited to see you," the Snow Elf introduced. "I'm Snowflake, Ice Dragonfly's younger sister. You might not know, but she often tells us about your deeds at home, saying she hopes to one day repay you for saving her life. It's because she mentioned you so often that I was able to recognize you right away."
The girl smiled sweetly, as sweet as a sunflower in summer.
But Noita instinctively felt that this girl was not a well-behaved person.
It feels like meeting a worthy opponent.
Feeling that the girl was difficult to deal with, Noita said sternly, "We are even now. Ice Dragonfly has completed my commission and no longer owes me a life-saving favor."
Bing Qingting pressed his forehead against his arm, his shoulders trembling slightly, and it took him a long time to recover from the burning sensation in his throat.
She looked up and replied cheerfully, "Indeed, Miss Noita and I are even now."
"Okay, okay, I can't figure out what the adults are doing." Xuehua kept looking between the two of them. Seeing that they had reached an agreement and were in tacit understanding, she spread her hands and indicated that that was it.
The curve of Bing Qingting's lips was barely perceptible, and she apologized to Noita: "My sister is naughty and disturbed you."
"It's okay. It's been a while since we last met. It's fate that we meet again." Noita said with a smile, "Do you mind sharing a table?"
"Just sit down."
Xuehua rolled her eyes helplessly, as there was clearly an empty seat behind them.
Noita picked up the menu and ordered.
While waiting for the meal to be served, Noita curiously asked Xuehua, "I look completely different from last time. How did you recognize me?"
Snowflake was about to respond, but Ice Dragonfly learned to answer first: "Your disguise skills are flawless, but I recognize people not only by appearance, but also by body shape and temperament, so I can recognize you in a crowd at a glance. Besides, although the orchid scent on you has become very faint, it has not completely disappeared."
"So that's it."
In fact, I didn’t understand it at all.
Noita still didn't understand why she and Xuehua could see through her at a glance. She was clearly paying attention to small details like her movements, and she had covered up her smell with perfume, but she was still seen through.
Is my disguise really that bad?
Noita secretly tried to recall the difference between the way snow elves recognized people and that of ordinary people. However, when she recalled it to the end, she found that her knowledge of snow elves was very limited. She only knew that snow elves lived in the snowy plains of Jinghai and were extremely rare.
This is what I learned from the race atlas in the game.
In the grand game, they seem particularly inconspicuous.
While she was thinking, the waiter brought the food.
Noita couldn't think of a reason, so she put the question aside for the time being and asked about Ice Dragonfly's recent life.
Ice Dragonfly said, "After resurrecting my sisters, I went looking for revenge on the Crystal Scorpions, but I was still no match for them. I had no choice but to retrieve their weapons and escape their territory. Now I help the association explore secret areas and occasionally protect the scientific expedition team. Do you want to hire me? I'm a good fighter."
There is no doubt that she can fight, and her record of hunting Wingard proves her strength.
What makes Noita suspicious is why Ice Dragonfly is so persistent in the mission.
Noita asked, "Are you short of money?"
"A little bit. Most of Xuehua and the others' equipment was lost when they died. It will take some effort to get it back."
