The Lord Demon King is Unfathomable! Chapter 279 - 117: When Science is Added to the Magic Bullet

Watching Miranda excitedly move close to sniff the sll, Yiye Zhiqu covered the chemical pool with a breath, startling him and he reflexively slapped the back of his head.

As a result, the forr sniffed in vain, and the latter slapped in vain.

This guy was a ghost; he couldn't be touched, so naturally, he couldn't sll anything.

"What are you doing?" Miranda asked in surprise, watching Yiye Zhiqu's actions by the chemical pool, completely bewildered.

Yiye Zhiqu coughed and said.

"I wanted to say this thing is poisonous... uh, I just rembered you're a ghost, poison can't kill you even if it wanted to."

Miranda: "Poisonous?! Why???"

Yiye Zhiqu nearly spat blood.

"Are you freaking 'Why Tis a Hundred Thousand'!?"

Miranda was stunned for a mont, then asked instinctively.

"Why Tis a Hundred Thousand'... what is that?"

"...Anyway, just rember that it's poisonous, as for why, you can figure that out yourself, I don't know either." Yiye Zhiqu actually knew the answer but really didn't want to explain any further.

Because once he started explaining this issue, he would have to delve into the fact that people are also made up of countless tiny things called "cells."

Ignoring the thirst for knowledge in those eyes, Yiye Zhiqu steered the conversation back to the lecture he wanted to give.

"So as you can see, 'gas' differs from 'gas'; so gases can burn, so can extinguish flas. You can't explain this phenonon with a simple six elents theory, so one could deduce that the wind elent can be subdivided further."

While saying this, Yiye Zhiqu covered the fla that was burning with the waste gas produced after combustion and the fire flickered hesitantly before quickly being extinguished.

Miranda's eyes widened.

"What's this?"

Yiye Zhiqu said with a smile.

"Another combination of oxygen and carbon elents, this ti it's two parts oxygen to one part carbon. Unlike the 'carbon monoxide' before, it is generally non-toxic, and not only does it not burn, it doesn't support combustion either; it can be used to put out fires."

The truth was, this laboratory wasn't very rigorous—it was more about shooting an arrow before painting the target.

Taking it seriously, he couldn't even confirm whether the fla was extinguished due to insufficient fuel or indeed due to the high concentration of carbon dioxide snuffing it out.

But this wasn't the college entrance examination.

All he needed was for the ghost in front of him to get the gist of it.

Although he thought what he was teaching was nothing more than simple knowledge, to Miranda it was as earth-shattering as thunder, shocking him so much that it took a long while for him to co back to his senses.

It felt as if a doorway to a new world had been pushed open in his mind!

The Great Mage of the empire—

His life's research didn't even compare to a skeleton from the Great Graveyard!

Unfortunately, Yiye Zhiqu didn't know what was going through his mind, otherwise he certainly would have been smug for a mont.

Raising his skeletal arm, Yiye Ge wiped the dust off his face, and said.

"Are you satisfied now?"

Miranda nodded excitedly but then shook his head quickly, saying.

"Oxygen and carbon... and iron, I understand. What about the other elents? Is there any rule to their interactions? You must know, right?!"

"Damn it!" Yiye Zhiqu glared at him, "Are you hooked on listening?!"

Without waiting for his plea, the old brother continued with an undeniable tone.

"No, no, it's too much of a loss for to teach you every day for free. I haven't done a single task from Lord Demon King because of this!"

Miranda imdiately asked.

"What tasks did Lord Demon King assign you?"

Yiye Zhiqu: "Capturing adventurers! Knight! Princess!"

"Uh, can we change it?" Miranda said nervously; he who had already caused a huge disaster really didn't want to harm anyone else.

Yiye Zhiqu said regretfully.

"There's also slaying beasts."

Miranda said at once.

"That's not a problem, I can help you with that."

Yiye Zhiqu looked at him in surprise.

"Really?!"

"Of course," Miranda said with a slight smile, confidently, "Don't be fooled by my appearance... I'm at least a Bronze-level Magic Apprentice."

Actually, he was originally Iron-level.

But after completing Novel's ceremony, the God of Chaos, as a reward to please him, had sublimated his soul once.

Although now it seed like a bait, it was sowhat of a blessing in disguise for him.

Yiye Zhiqu smacked his lips, thinking that it was acceptable; at least he had acquired a Bronze-level fighter.

Even though he had more aweso robots to use, those things couldn't really be utilized in a labyrinth, and besides, every move they made was like a "Crystal Swallowing Giant Beast."

"Alright... then I'll teach you for four hours every day, and you'll take to train for eight hours, which ans to hunt magical beasts."

"Four hours?!" Miranda exclaid, "Why so short?!"

Yiye Zhiqu said irritably.

"Be content! Knowledge has a price! I haven't even charged you tuition yet!"

Thinking about it made him angry.

Though he hadn't made much money since getting the beta test access, he had rarely made unprofitable deals.

Yet with this dead ghost, he had managed to lose what he earned!

For three whole days, he had done a physics and chemistry experint that a junior high student would know, and he even went online to buy a second-hand chemistry textbook.

Make no mistake—

This was definitely the malice of the developnt team!

And the purpose was to get him to help test the ga's physics engine.

However, on the flip side, during these three days, he hadn't been without gains.

At least regarding his understanding of magic, especially the theoretical side, he might have surpassed Yiye Zhiqu.
