Academic exchange is indeed the main purpose of Wang Qi coming to the Fountain of Youth.暚
Leiming Kingdom also has a college with a magic department, but it was not as planned. When he learned that Huguang University had a magic department, Wang Qi asked someone to consult and found that the top leaders of the departments only had five rings.
In addition, this department has not existed for a long time, and there is no way of exchanging documents for student status like the Black Forest Academy of Magic. The spell documents of third ring and above are also clearly not allowed to be seen by outsiders, and there is no overall communication value.
From the beginning, we targeted the Fountain of Youth Magic Academy because it is more famous here. The Holy Mothers of the Church of Life have a good reputation even among the members of the Self-Rescue Society, and they are the type that is easier to communicate with.
Specific communication still needs to be done step by step.
Send the letter of intent first.
Wang Qi's identity in the document is "Honorary Principal of Black Forest Academy of Magic."
In the magical world, there are many ways to identify lies. For example, the third ring of the prophecy system has a "lie detection" spell that can be used on itself, and the law has a "power word spell" that can be used on the target, so try to use it where you can avoid lying. Real information is easier to win people's trust than nonsense.暚
The main reason is that there has been no formal communication between the two worlds for hundreds of years. Even if true information is reported, it is difficult to determine the source of many things.
For a magic academy that has existed for thousands of years, it must have encountered many scammers and people trying to get close to it. In order to appear formal enough, the letter of intent used by Wang Qi was also the official letter paper of the Black Forest Academy of Magic. In the Phoenix Kingdom, this kind of special correspondence paper is mainly used for admission notices, graduation certificates, etc., and is one of the "work-study" projects for third-year (second ring) students.
It uses a printing technology that combines magic. It prints background lines on cashmere-containing paper. These lines are distributed diagonally and are relatively parallel, but not straight. Through line changes, three similar lines are formed on the letter paper. Watermark pattern.
The three images are the image of the Mobius Building (dormitory building) in the middle, the college emblem in the lower right corner, and the college's abbreviation and name stamped above.
The influence of magic on this is that after it is made, the magic can be sent to the paper to change the color of the ink lines. The originally dark green lines will turn into a gradient color of red, purple and black, making the watermark more intuitive and vivid.
Letter paper is quite special. Even without magic inspection, it can be easily detected by hand feel and normal vision. It is not something that can be purchased casually.
After sending the letter of intent for exchange, Wang Qi and Li Xiang changed into local clothes and walked around the streets to find some special food and handicrafts.暚
The basic fabrics of local clothing are mainly white, emerald green, and sky blue. Other bland colors are used as color matching, and dark colors are rarely seen.
Take the ordinary monks and nuns of the Church of Life as an example. Their clothing is white. The colors of the nuns' waistbands, lapels, and cuffs, which serve as belts, are pink and green. The colors of the monks are mostly light blue and bright yellow.
Local clothing tends to be working-style, with narrow cuffs, stand-up collars, and hems near the knees. Working people's clothing is shorter, with hems reaching the hips.
The trousers are non-riding ones, and there is no concept of closing. The shape of the trousers is similar to bell-bottoms, but there is no such exaggerated mouth opening, and overall it is not conducive to big movements such as jumping into a horse.
As for the legendary nuns wearing stockings... I have never seen them before. Not to mention the fact that there is no nylon, there are no socks that are longer than the knee in clothing stores.
Although socks are inconspicuous, they are also very interesting in the comparison of different worlds.
Wang Qi’s Little Kingdom starting team are all second-generation disaster-stricken people. They have all seen people who have used functional socks that are compatible with friction, protection, sweat absorption, and breathability. They also brought some with them when they moved, so the textile industry is basically directional development. , in socks, you will pay more attention to the elasticity of the fabric. Although polymer elastic fiber materials such as spandex have not yet been developed, socks have also developed to the point where no additional ties are needed.暚
In areas with insufficient productivity, socks are a typical luxury product and are only available to a very small number of people. Most of them are not elastic and require additional ties to help secure them.
When workers need foot protection, they usually use cloth strapping, which is much more reliable than non-elastic socks.
There are actually ready-made socks for purchase in local clothing stores, which is enough to get people interested.
Socks that have no elasticity at all must be customized according to the shape of your feet, otherwise even if they have laces, they will hurt your feet, so it is better not to wear them.
There are finished products for sale, which proves that local socks have certain size adjustment capabilities.
Field observations revealed that this adjustment ability is not inherent in textile fibers.
The fabric of their socks is not dead cloth, but its elasticity is about the same as that of pure cotton. More adjustment capabilities come from several rubber rings on the socks.暚
Wang Qi asked. This thing is actually a specially processed animal tendon. It is made into sheets and then glued into a ring using magic glue to provide adjustment capabilities.
What a pity, I thought it was rubber.
Although we already have the mass production capacity of butyl rubber, if we can find a substitute for natural rubber, we must find a way to get some seeds back. After all, the two are not exactly the same thing. It is difficult to use modified butyl rubber in some product directions. achieve optimal results.
In terms of food, locals are mainly vegetarians. About 80% of the food stalls sell vegan food, and the overall taste is relatively bland.
The situation is different in the outer city. The proportion of snacks such as meatloaf and meatballs is significantly larger. This is obviously caused by the cultural influence of Life Church.
The Life Church itself does not prohibit eating meat, but whether it is out of fraternity or overflowing compassion, many people only eat meat on certain days. They are usually vegetarians and drink milk at most. Eggs are considered meat here.
Wang Qi didn't feel bad about this either. After all, he was someone who had experienced the magic era of environmental protection. It was quite normal for the locals not to paint the doorways of other people's houses colorfully just because they ate meat.暚
Humans have spent countless years emerging from the food chain to be called omnivores, not just to go back to being vegan. As for personal choices, we naturally need to respect them.
Wang Qi is a meat-vegetarian balance type. As long as it tastes good, both meat and vegetable dishes are fine. It’s best to pair them with each other.
There is a very delicious local porridge. The raw material is something similar to taro, but you can be sure that it is not taro because after it is broken and cooked, it will form small particles that taste like coconut pulp.
In this way, I spent the whole day exploring various stores, and the next day I went to see Bai Xiaojiao outside the city. I wandered around the city for three days, waiting for a reply.
The reply was not particularly formal, using ordinary paper, and asked Wang Qi to meet at a dim sum restaurant.
Probably out of fraud prevention considerations?
Anyway, Wang Qi is really here to communicate, and he is not afraid to verify the quality.暚
He and Li Xiang changed into the regular clothes they wore in the palace, and took two of the Eight King Kongs to the place to meet the person named "Denise Larton".
