Saint Aiven City, which has gradually entered the fast track of developnt, is not just that.
Due to its superior geographical location, it is a natural gateway connecting the New Continent and the Old Continent.
However, during Ilya’s reign, like many countries, it was rely used as a resource supply for the holand, only thinking of continuous plunder, without ever considering vigorous construction here.
Aiven, who is very optimistic about the developnt here, wants more than anything to keep the pioneers and capital continuously flowing from the Old Continent to this treasured land.
On the basis of a world-class large port, it is upgraded to a trade center connecting the north, south, east, and west. Through the aggregation of capital and talent, riding the waves of productivity revolution such as steam industrialization, it will further develop into a world manufacturing center, trade center, and financial center.
Especially since finance is a double-edged sword for a country, it cannot be relied upon fundantally, but it cannot be ignored either.
In another world’s international bankers control huge capital, and even can determine a country’s rise and fall, making it difficult for even governnts united by the power of the people to resist.
They attract public deposits and pay interest by establishing banks, then profit through industry investnt, and distribute the profits back to the accounts of depositors.
And through this process of investnt, bankers unknowingly extend their tentacles into multiple industries.
As a trend of world developnt, if Aiven does not plan early in this industry, sooner or later soone else will fill in these gaps driven by interests.
Therefore, Hawkins, who had left the New Continent long ago to preside over affairs on Ugor Island, has just returned, and under Aiven’s authorization, he selected a batch of financial elites from the talent pool of the territory.
He established the "Long Island Developnt Bank" in Saint Aiven City, which also operates insurance business.
It is the second "state-owned" enterprise completely controlled by the Marquisate, following the "Hartson Fur Company".
And in his new team is the widow of Speaker Jero, who has now been renad Edith Hobian, a young and charming noble lady.
Though she has changed her appearance, her beauty level remains the sa as before. One must admit, Hawkins is... ahem, quite perceptive.
Aiven did not concern himself much with bank affairs after presiding over the ribbon-cutting ceremony together with Olivia and expounding his developnt ideas. Although secular wealth is important, it is not fundantal to him, as Aiven has already plunged back into his new research project at the first opportunity.
...
Wizard Tower, third-level internal ecological circulation system.
After becoming an Upper-Rank Wizard, he gradually expanded the spaces within the Wizard Tower, with even the smallest floors being expanded by at least three tis, turning the largest area of this space into a sprawling botanical garden.
After finding "Iron Wall Knight" Ambrose without any results, Aiven temporarily put aside the so-called "clock about to appear in this era..."
For matters not certain to be related to him, it is not worth expending too much energy for the ti being.
Instead, he refocused his attention on enhancing his own strength, which is also his most important research project at present, [Genetic Theory].
Especially at this ti, the Silver Knights happened to provide him with so very interesting material.
Whir——
Four splendidly bright, excellently presentable flying horses, each with a height of at least 2.6 ters, but very light, weighing only about three hundred kilograms, rely on their strong, powerful wings and extraordinary talent magical abilities to fly.
Aiven and Angie discovered that the flying horses are not celestial creatures close to an energy body like the servant demon "Celestial White Deer" Minnie possessed by Angie, but a type of fleshy, demonized creature in the material world.
Perhaps in ancient tis, through the "Dawn Church" or so other person, artificial crossbreeding or demonization induced created this type of sacred, extraordinary creature that even Tier 2 Official Knights could ride as a powerful flying unit.
It is simply the best mount that every Knight dreams of, apart from a Giant Dragon.
Equipped with bows and crossbows and javelins, the Silver Knights have an advantage facing ground troops, just like when the [Jade Coronet] faces ordinary sea warships.
Aiven also knows very well that the powerful Great Knight holding the Holy Sword easily gave up on these flying horses, not fearing others duplicating such a formidable mount. The difficulty of breeding is one thing; another is that all four flying horses are male, making normal reproduction impossible even if obtained by others.
Wearing a wizard’s robe, Aiven chuckled lightly, "Naive."
If he truly needed them urgently, he wouldn’t even require an entire horse, just a single drop of blood would suffice.
Just like now, he and Angie are observing several treated blood slides under the light source, decoding their secrets with the aid of [Witchcraft: Super Microscopic Vision], as if reading a book.
With the continuous developnt of "Microscopic Vision", it is now not even a challenge to "see" the genetic structures at the microscopic molecular level directly.
The DNA double helix is composed of two DNA single strands moving in opposite directions, each single strand consisting of four bases (A, T, C, and G) forming the DNA double strands according to the principle of complentary base pairing.
So-called [Gene] is the DNA fragnt with hereditary effects, the basic genetic unit controlling biological traits.
Compared to computer code 01 sequences, [Gene] is rely the sequence code of four base pairs. They are now able to take a sample and extract the life code from the DNA as though reading from a hard disk.
Since the creation of the [Super Microscopic Vision] witchcraft last sumr, they have been exploring the secrets hidden in the bloodlines of ordinary creatures, demonized creatures, extraordinaries, and other such existences in this world.
Aside from recording related theoretical knowledge into the Inheritance Secret Scroll "Flesh Sacrifice", Aiven has also crafted a magic book "Genetic Code".
This magic book records the decoded [genetic] sequences of various creatures, serving as the foundation for the School mbers for subsequent research. It also provides theoretical support for converting [Talent Magic: Bloodline Plugin] into a universal witchcraft within the School.
This milestone in life sciences, the "Biogeno Project (not limited to humans)", led by Aiven with Angie as deputy, was initially intended to offer an excellent research direction for Angie, who had crossed the threshold of a Senior Official Wizard, aiming to gain resources for future advancent to Tier 3.
Aiven is primarily guiding Angie forward.
Therefore, upon noticing the sudden astonishnt on Angie’s face next to him, Aiven couldn’t help but lean over and ask:
"Angie, did you encounter any problems?"
The girl lifted her head, her silver pupils shimring with confusion, vaguely saying to Aiven:
"I seem to have discovered sothing remarkable within the [gene] sequence of the flying horses, sir, I think you’d best take a look too!"
