Chapter 982 Advancement
Qiao An is deeply aware that the cost of scientific research in the Austrian law industry is too high. If he aspires to make scientific research a lifelong pursuit, there are only two ways to go.
Either try to do business to make money first, turn yourself into a millionaire like Mr. Kaufman, gain financial freedom, and use the money you earn to support scientific research investment.
Either find a way to apply for scientific research funds like colleagues in the Austrian law academic circle, and seek support for scientific research funding from the government, military, universities, enterprises, various non-profit organizations and even individual funders.
Qiao An doesn't think he has the talent to do business, and his energy is limited, so it's hard to balance making money and scientific research. In contrast, applying for fund support is the right way.
With the "golden master father", although there will be some restrictions, at least you don't have to suffer from financial constraints, and you can't wait to break a copper plate in half to save money.
While meditating, time passed quietly.
When Joan came back to his senses, the hour hand on the pocket watch had already pointed to three o'clock in the morning.
Joan yawned, quickly packed up the laboratory equipment and stationery, washed up in a hurry, and went to bed.
Although it was late and he was quite sleepy, he still insisted on meditating for an hour before going to bed.
The will probe formed by the condensed mental power continued to drill into the depths of the magic net, and finally broke through the invisible barrier at the last moment when Qiao An was about to end his meditation, and reached the inner layer of the third magic net!
Qiao An breathed a sigh of relief, and the corners of her lips rose slightly.
After finishing the meditation, he turned on the "Inner Vision" to check his status, and found that the mage level and the number of spell slots had changed as expected.
...
Physical state: basic health (disabled right eye; infected with worm disease)
Occupation Level: Mage 6/Mythic Archmage 2
Current spell slot: 0th level - unlimited; 1st level - 6 (intelligence attribute bonus + 3); 2nd level - 5 (intelligence attribute bonus + 2), 3rd level - 4 (intelligence attribute bonus + 2)
Path Abilities (Mythic Archmage): Mythic Power 7/day, Wild Arcane, Mythic Casting, Energy Replacement, Mythic Mana +2, Mythic Counter;
Supernatural abilities: shape change, worm armor, worm curse, worm identification, blood enchantment (+trigger, +peace of mind);
Attributes (belt +4 enhancement): Strength 14, Dexterity 16, Constitution 16, Intelligence 29 (Tear of God +6, Fountain of Wisdom +5), Wisdom 18, Charisma 20
...
The mage level has been raised to level 6, and one spell slot for the 2nd ring and 1 spell slot for the 3rd ring have been added. This is all in Joan's expectation. What really surprised him is that "Self-Blood Enchantment" was finally replaced by "Inner Vision". "Detected, and included in the "Supernatural Ability" column, it is not in vain to work until midnight.
With a big yawn, Joan lay down on the bed and fell asleep contentedly.
Early the next morning, Joan went to the school library, borrowed a lot of periodicals, and searched for the physiological signs of the warlock during the blood vessel strengthening period.
Sure enough, several papers have mentioned that during the period of strengthening the blood vessels, there may be abnormally excited physiological impulses.
Related experiments with mice and apes have shown that males are even significantly more aggressive after being injected with "blood vessel enhancers".
Similar experiments with female mice and apes generally show obvious estrous characteristics.
It can be seen that "bloodline strengthening" will indeed cause a stronger reproductive impulse, and this phenomenon can be observed by both male and female test subjects.
On the surface, this is because warlocks are more attractive than mages, and are more likely to attract the pursuit of the opposite sex. The deep reason is that the supernatural power of warlocks mainly comes from blood, and excellent blood itself has a strong motivation to spread and reproduce .
Qiao An has always wondered before that the way of practice of a mage is more stable than that of a warlock, and the upper limit is also higher. It stands to reason that after tens of thousands of years of survival of the fittest, the arcane industry should be dominated by mages. Warlocks, an extraordinary profession, should have been It's right to be eliminated.
However, the reality is just the opposite. The absolute number of warlocks far exceeds that of mages. Especially at the level below level 10, warlocks occupy the overwhelming majority.
After reading these research documents, Qiao An suddenly realized.
A mage is learned, but a warlock is born.
As far as intergenerational inheritance is concerned, those with excellent bloodlines are the most advantageous, followed by the owners of money and power, and those with knowledge are the most disadvantaged.
The extraordinary power of a mage mainly comes from knowledge. Many mages are not particularly good at innate intelligence.
The excellent lineage of warlocks can be passed on to their offspring, so that the offspring will occupy a more superior position when they are born, and their innate endowments will be stronger than others.
The mages are full of knowledge, but they cannot benefit their children through innate inheritance.
For most people, learning is a painful thing.
The couple are both archmages, and they may not be able to give birth to a genius. Their children still have to learn from the most basic knowledge, and the starting point is not much higher than that of ordinary people's children.
If things go on like this, of course, there are far more people with warlock talent than those with outstanding intelligence who are willing to study hard.
But looking at it from another angle, even for tens of thousands of years, warlocks have devoted themselves to giving birth to children like mice, and the number of offspring has an absolute advantage in terms of number and innate endowment, hasn't it failed to eliminate the mage profession?
Today, the mage profession still occupies half of the arcane industry, and its achievements in the high-end field completely crush the warlocks, which is enough to prove how powerful the extraordinary profession of the mage is!
Thinking of this, Qiao An felt relieved, feeling that he was in the right business.
Just imagine, if he had chosen the career of a warlock, even if he did not consider the hidden risks of the "Sacred Seal of Different Eyes", his withdrawn and awkward personality alone would never be able to adapt to the debauched life of Sleeping Flowers and Willows. I don't have much interest, no matter how good my blood talent is, it would be a waste if I can't pass it on.
Compared with being busy with dating women and writing love letters all day long, Qiao An thinks it is more interesting to do scientific research and write papers.
