Meanwhile.
The Third Botanical Garden, in the Deputy Directorâs office.
Sophie Lucia was organizing experiment logs, streamlining experimental thoughts, and analyzing experiment data.
After initiating several experiments and making diversified attempts for six days, none of the experiments successfully germinated within these six days. However, Sophie did not lose heart.
Experiencing setbacks is not unusual in research; success cannot be achieved overnight.
But Sophie had collected adequate data. Based on these data, she could deduce the germination method of Link Grande.
That was exactly what she was doing now.
After a while, Sophie put down her pen with a pleasant smile of victory on her face.
She had succeeded in figuring it out!
The germination method of Link Grande was not advanced, and it could even be considered quite basic.
Unfortunately, because it was too basic, Sophie and others who had tried to figure out the Silver Star Flower Seeds germination method overlooked something.
The Birth Induction Technique promotes growth by consuming the vitality potential of its subject.
The secondary Misty Rain Technique has the effect of nourishing vitality, which can compensate for the vitality consumed by Birth Induction Technique. However, the Normal Silver Starflower Seeds inherently have vitality risks, not to mention those problem seeds.
The vitality nourished by the secondary Misty Rain Technique canât compensate for the vitality consumed in one term Birth Induction Technique. The solution is simple, namely to increase the use of the secondary Misty Rain Technique and reduce the use of the Birth Induction Technique.
One secondary Misty Rain Technique in the morning, two in the evening, and one Birth Induction Technique every other day, which has to be performed between the two Secondary Misty Rain Techniques.
This way, the germination success rate can be effectively improved.
Sophie Lucia prepared to conduct another round of experiments.
As soon as the first round of the experiment was over and after obtaining the data, she would write her new germination method for the Silver Star flower into a âthesisâ for publishing.
In this way, she would become the developer of this new germination method and own all its rights.
Moreover, from all aspects, she independently developed this new germination method, so it would not involve academic plagiarism.
All experimental records and data are available for anyone to examine and scrutinize.
At most, she could say her âinspirationâ was triggered after seeing Link Grande successfully germinate the Silver Star Flower Seeds within six days.
After finishing the experiment and âthesisâ, Link left the dorm for dinner in the cafeteria.
If Link were alone, it wouldnât matter how late he arrived, as long as he didnât go hungry.
However, Jasmine was waiting to dine with him, so he couldnât forsake her for too long.
Having sent a message on his handheld device, Link left the room.
The cafeteria.
Link rendezvoused with Jasmine, and she was beaming with happiness and joy. âSuccessful?â
Link asked softly.
After the evening classes, Link returned to his dorm to continue his experiments and âthesisâ, while Jasmine went back to practice Deep Meditation during her spare time.
Judging from her meditation progress in the past few days, Link concluded and informed Jasmine that she was on the verge of achieving the first level of the Meditation Technique and becoming a First Rank Wizard Apprentice.
A regular meditation session one day might just seal her success.
And just as predicted, she fulfilled Linkâs prediction.
Given the bustling cafeteria, Link lowered his voice when he asked. He didnât want to attract public attention.
âYes.â
Jasmine Kidman restrained her excitement and nodded her head. Although she was more than a month behind the first and second groups, it was a moment of celebration when Jasmine Kidman successfully transcended the mundane and entered the realm of the extraordinary.
If not for Linkâs slight influence on her, keeping her low-profile and practical she would have wanted to shout it out loud to anyone she knew.
âCongratulations.â
Link could feel Jasmineâs indescribable joy and promptly congratulated her on her success.
âThank you.â
Jasmine flashed a brilliant smile.
For the first time, Link found Jasmineâs smile truly beautiful, worth admiring, and unforgettable.
In the past, Jasmineâs smile was also beautiful, perhaps described as cute and compelling.
However, those smiles lacked sincerity.
Your smile looks pretty good, even better than before.â
Link soothed her with his words, hoping sheâd understand his implications.
âReally?â
Jasmine replied with a smile, not sure whether she understood his intent or took his words to heart.
The two chosen their meals and found a vacant seat.
After eating for a while, Link remembered the Magic Blueprint Scroll and asked, âDo you have enough Magic Stones?â
Only the top five of each batch of New Blood who reported their promotion to First Rank Wizard Apprentice had the qualification to freely exchange a Zero Ring witchcraft.
AU other new blood, even those with advance fifth rank qualifications, had to use Magic Stones for purchase.
Five standard first-level Magic Stones are needed for exchanging a Zero Ring witchcraft Blueprint Scroll, which is considered fair and honest.
The price starts at ten Magic Stones when purchasing from a bookshop, and there is no bargain on the black market.
The only advantage of buying Magic Blueprint Scrolls from bookstores or the black market was that it wouldnât record which witchcraft theyâve bought under the college information system.
Jasmine contemplated for a moment and then told the truth, âItâs enough for exchanging one Zero Ring witchcraft.â
âHmm.â
Link nodded without continuing the topic on Magic Stones, and instead asked,
âAre you sure about the Birth Induction Technique?â
âDefinitely.â
Jasmine was absolutely certain.
She wouldnât change her decision that was made weeks ago.
She understood all related knowledge of the Birth Induction Technique and had conducted several observations and experiments.
If there were any issues, couldnât she ask Link anytime?
Jasmine believed there was no need to deliberately defy tradition to emphasize her independence or personality.
âTonight, Iâll accompany you to the Witchcraft Trade Center.â
âOK.â
Having reached a consensus, the two didnât chat anymore and concentrated on their meals.
After dinner, they left the cafeteria, took a walk to the library to aid digestion.
This had been their routine for weeks now.
Jasmine found some materials and reviewed related knowledge of the secondary Misty Rain Technique.
Link continued to refine his âthesis.â
According to Linkâs experimental design, once the three experiments were all completed and yielded the expected results, two âthesesâ could be produced.
One thesis mainly narrates the new germination methodâs reduction of germination time for Silver Starflowerâs normal and problem seeds, particularly problem seeds, the increase in germination success rate, and the economic value of the new germination method.
Based on this thesis, Link could then apply for the âpatentâ and reap its benefits.
The other thesis required subsequent research and data support, mainly proving the feasibility, direction, and method of optimizing Silver Starflower seeds and verifying the positive influences of the new germination method on the seedâs quality of Silver Star flower.
The completion time would be lengthy, involving a large number of samples and experiments, and even more data collection.
Under Linkâs current conditions, it was unfeasible to support that.
Thus, Linkâs focus was on the first two experiments, and the first âthesisâ was what he had been working on.
Now, the body of the âthesisâ was already completed. He could officially publish it once the remaining pieces of data have been collected in the next couple of days.
If everything goes as planned, Linkâd be able to pay back Jasmineâs investment in no time..
