Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

Task 1: Learn to Build a Plan

Note: If you plant the next college bully today, you will reap a basket of bullies tomorrow. Think about it. It's wonderful.

Requirements: Instruct students to complete a graduation thesis.

Reward: 1 ~??? Subject Experience (Final value correlates positively with the academic value of the research topic, negatively correlates with the direct participation of the host in the topic, positively correlates with student participation). 500 points. Lottery Opportunity (50% Garbage, 25% Samples, 15% Drawings, 10% Special)

Looking at the first task that was brushed out, the ark had some weak slots.

What exactly does this system think of Scholar as?

Leek?

But the word "college bully”, let's just say it's a compliment.

It was recognized by higher civilizations, and it was unclear whether the Ark was a pleasant thing.

Task 2: King of the Green Inn

Note: Rugby is a national sport in the United States, and the Super Bowl is a well-known event here. It seems a little too difficult for hosts to get stuck in the Super Bowl, so it's always okay to target the winner of the Ivy League in the fall?

REQUIREMENTS: Attend any Princeton football club, get a promotion at least in the on-campus games, and get a quarterback or higher in the league games.

Reward: 10,000 ~ 50,000 free experience. 500 points. Lottery Opportunity (80% Garbage, 10% Samples, 6% Drawings, 4% Special)

Ark: …

What the hell is that supposed to mean?

Feels like everything's wrong.

Thinking of a big guy like the Green Titan of Connie, the ark feels it's better to stay away from the dangerous sport of football.

If something goes wrong with him, it's not just his own loss, it's the loss of all mankind...

Excluding Father Pit's task directly from the options, the Ark continues to look down the task bar and towards the last task on the list.

Task 3: Lithium Sky is the future!

Note: Lithium-sulfur batteries will eventually be eliminated, and lithium-empty batteries are the future!

REQUIREMENTS: Solve a range of technical problems with lithium air batteries, so that lithium air batteries have a market share of more than 5 per cent in the global battery market. (Determined by system rules.

Reward: 0 ~??? Subject Experience. 500 points. Lottery Opportunity (50% Garbage, 30% Samples, 10% Drawings, 10% Special)

The task itself does not have much of a groove, but the rhetoric of the system is somewhat similar to that of Professor Sarot.

I don't know if it overestimates the scientific and technological level of human civilization, or if it simply sees itself praising too many points and wants to pit a little bit out of its stock of points.

However, since the system is so confident in lithium air batteries, the Ark feels that it may be appropriate to seriously consider buying the patent for that caged carbon molecule from Professor Stanley.

It probably won't cost much anyway.

Looking at the three tasks, the Ark finally chose Task 1 as its main line task after some deliberation.

Task 1 is undoubtedly a relatively low-difficulty and highly plastic task, as opposed to task 2, which is too dangerous, and task 3, which is temporarily invisible.

However, on the point that "reward experience is negatively related to the host's direct involvement in the topic", the system seems to mean that he wants the subject to be left to the student to complete independently, rather than by him personally…

The ark touched the chin and caught in contemplation.

That's a little tricky.

……

Just as the Ark was thinking about how to accomplish its next mission, there was an angry growl at the Institute of Materials at Binghamton University.

“Ricardo! Get out of here! Damn... where did that idiot go? ”

Professor Stanley, who searched for Ricardo's figure next to the department, seemed like the fire in his eyes was about to erupt and his beard was shaking with tremors, even though no wind had blown.

Apparently, he has reached the point of anger.

During this time, a number of laboratories have questioned his thesis, indicating that his laboratory results could not be restored in repeated trials.

Professor Stanley naturally pressed down on these questionable voices with his own influence, choking them back with "you can't make it doesn't mean no one else can".

This response sounds somewhat irrational.

But for academia, it's not unusual.

While the essence of science is that it can be repeated, not every “scientific result” can be repeated.

After all, even if the experimental report has written the operating procedures without great detail, some nuances can lead to very different results for the same experimental steps.

And in fact, caged carbon molecules do suppress the shuttle effect.

However, it is far less effective than what Professor Stanley described in his thesis.

As academia lost interest in his research, so did industry's response. ExxonMobil, in particular, is increasingly impatient with the indifferent market.

To reverse this situation, for the past month Professor Stanley has stabilized ExxonMobil while trying to do everything possible to make that caged carbon molecule a little more useful.

Unfortunately, however, the skeleton of the cathode sulfur material is not capable of preventing the diffusion of the polysulfur compound into the electrolyte, regardless of the mixing method he uses. Often the battery only cycles more than 200 turns, and the cathode material is almost lost.

The double-sided spy speculation is becoming more and more certain that the shameful traitor suddenly disappeared from his lab as Professor Stanley prepared to find Ricardo's stall.

He didn't know until he talked to his research assistant.

That guy hasn't been in the lab since the day before yesterday.

For a moment, Professor Stanley understood everything.

The thing he was most afraid of eventually happened.

To think that he still had a little hope in the character of the traitor, he felt like a fool a few months ago!

Looking at Professor Stanley with a temper, the researchers in the lab were fearful.

No one knows why Professor Stanley, who has stood at the height of his life since he traveled to Manhattan Island in New York to attend that feast, has suddenly changed his temper and become irritable.

Even in the same lab, in charge of the same research project, not everyone knows the specifics of the experiment as well.

Apart from the core researchers whose names will appear in the thesis, most researchers at this Institute of Materialology know nothing more about the specifics of that caged carbon molecule than those who learned from the journal.

Most people believe that they have solved the shuttle effect of lithium-sulfur batteries, a world-class technical difficulty…

“Damn it, Fuck!” Constantly cursing rude words, Professor Stanley sat on his office chair with his forefingers pressed against his eyebrows and his heavy breathing relaxed.

At this point, the phone at the corner of the table suddenly rang.

Looking at the number displayed, Professor Stanley took a deep breath and made himself look a little calm, reaching out and picking up the phone.

As soon as the phone was on, Woods' voice came from the other end of the phone.

“My engineer told me your battery couldn't be built at all! Don't try to fool me with those boring reasons, I need a reasonable explanation. ”

This was the fifth time he had called Professor Stanley's office since the Manhattan Island banquet. And compared to previous times, his tone was no longer as polite as previous times, even with obvious distrust.

Professor Stanley fell into brief silence over Woods' aggressive voice.

His mind suddenly moved when he finally made up his mind to set things straight for the CEO.

Ricardo disappeared from his lab the other day, and ExxonMobil probably doesn't know that yet.

This is not a good thing for him to try.

At least, he has a dumping pot object...

Pressed down, Professor Stanley spoke heavily: "We've been fooled. ”

After hearing this unexpected answer, Woods obviously stunned and frowned slightly: “What do you mean...”

Professor Stanley continued with a shady face: "The data is false, Ricardo's real identity is a double agent, don't you see? We were fooled by that guy from the start! ”

Woods's back was cold, and he immediately said, "Impossible. Where could he go? And with a lawsuit on him, even if he wanted to run, he couldn't get far. ”

Commercial espionage is a very serious crime in the United States, especially in relation to intellectual property rights, and can be seriously and even criminally liable. Moreover, the entry and exit of Ricardo is restricted by the courts.

And as long as Ricardo stays in America, it's too easy to find him.

“Since he's a double agent, do you think Startech will continue to sue him? Perhaps when you don't know, they've all dropped the charges...” Combined with their guess, Professor Stanley confessed everything he's hiding.

After listening to Professor Stanley, Woods fell into thought and his face was gloomy and uncertain.

When he called, he was ready for the entertainer to question him, and after learning that Professor Stanley had been hiding from himself for the past month, his mood was even more unquenchable.

But after hearing about the "double agent”, his anger passed on to Ricardo.

If what Professor Stanley says is true, then the responsibility is not entirely on him.

After all, the idea of digging the foot of the wall from the ark belongs to him.

However, now is not the time to be held accountable…

Woods took a deep breath and said slowly.

“With regard to Ricardo, I will revert to the legal department to confirm the proceedings. And now..."

For an energy giant like ExxonMobil, he faces lawsuits almost every day, big and small, and the lawsuit of a district clerk does not come to his attention.

Unless his secretary was specifically instructed to follow the case closely, no one would put these trivial things on his desk at all.

Of course, if it's true, he'll make that greedy guy pay.

As for now…

After a moment of pause, Woods continued.

“As for now, we must hold our feet steady! The news that the effect of the new material is not ideal must not be conveyed! Investors remain confident in us and we have an obligation not to make them happy for nothing. ”

“In addition, I understand that the most recent research in the Ark is theoretical, and lithium-sulfur batteries are not the focus of his research. Even if we take a little detour, we're definitely not too far apart. ”

“I need you to start experimenting again. ”

“We've wasted a lot of resources and I don't want to get nothing but pointless garbage, and I'm sure you don't want to end up like this either! ”

After hearing this, Professor Stanley relieved himself.

Apparently ExxonMobil is also not going to easily admit defeat, and Woods still chooses to be on the same front as him.

With a gentle tone, Professor Stanley continued.

“I've been doing this. ”

He had no intention of admitting to failure.

Even if he holds on, he will hold on until the day he achieves results.
