Chapter 158 How Could Kael Be So Easy to Copy (5K)_3
The game begins, let's go!
As for why one could display their skills immediately after reincarnating and even achieve such great success in the fields of magic and magic potions, it was merely due to information asymmetry.
Just like scientific research in a previous life, whether it's magic or magic potions, in the vast majority of cases, a lot of trial and error is often required to distill something valuable from the vast ocean of theories.
Setting aside Kael's research abilities, he had an absolute advantage in this regard; he knew the development directions of certain professional skills, types of magic potions, and spell categories.
After his memory enhancement was obtained through his professional traits, he could recall many snippets of information he had glimpsed in his previous life.
These bits of information were not enough to grant him new skills, unlock new magic potion formulas, or carve out new research domains.
However, if Kael conducted relevant research himself and understood the general development trends, he could completely skip the trial and error phase in his research, achieving the most efficient results in the shortest amount of time.
It's important to know that the results of those messy field studies were directions that the inhabitants of the continent had only managed to forge after many years of research.
Take the armored knights, for instance; just to serve as live dissection subjects for new players, at least 20,000 naïve players were used, promised huge profits, and assigned a multitude of repetitive tasks—guess if that was achievable.
And these naïve players could be repeatedly harvested without worrying about public opinion pressure, nor caring for their lives.
Only under such huge investments were they able to find the right balance and direction for development, as well as the theoretically optimal material compositions.
Yet, Kael didn't need to do any screening; he could just make adjustments directly and use it.
The result was what Renata saw: Kael's research speed that shocked the entire Mage World.
The Body Magic Potion triple pack that got Renata so excited was also a product of this situation. The magic potions in this pack were the ones Kael remembered most clearly.
Because this magic potion was concocted by players by chance, due to its relatively simple production and single source of ingredients, it almost instantly became one of the few magic potion brewing methods familiar to many players who wanted to improve their attributes.
In fact, even Kael himself did not know what kind of monster he had been promoted to in the Mage Academia.
In just half a year's time, his research achievements that stunned half the Mage World came one after another, an endless stream!
Kael's somewhat dismissive attitude left Renata stunned for a moment; she hadn't expected such a nonchalant reaction from him.
But such a widely popular magic potion was the easiest way to spread one's fame among ordinary professionals.
If Renata could independently develop one of them, she could be proud of it for three or four years.
"I'll arrange for someone responsible for this matter to follow you later. You can find a place in the domain to rest first, and after you're settled, they will take you to see what Lancaster has to offer."
Kael did not stay long; he turned and rode back to the Lord Mansion on his horse.
Next, he intended to cleanse the Twisted Jungle and take control of all the manageable monsters, then devote all his energy to the third Dungeon that was soon to descend upon Lancaster.

[Lord Mansion—Study Room]
Kael took out some books about the goblin empire that he hadn't finished reading from the bookshelf.
After checking them again, his gaze fell upon a page of records.
Your next chapter awaits on My Virtual Library Empire
Previously, through Hassaka's perspective, he saw that the Goblin Vanguard was wearing armor, and with some memories from past life games, that familiar silhouette soon enabled him to identify it as one of the Vanguard Armor types.
As the name suggests, this set of armor was specially designed for the Goblin Vanguards.
However, the Vanguard Armor would have different details depending on the goblin empire era and the batch of troops it belonged to.
The only certainty was that this was not the earliest version of Vanguard Armor.
Combining this with what the world will had said before—that this Dungeon was called "Empire's Ashes"—it could almost certainly be placed after the goblin empire faced the united assault of the Elf Magic Corps from the "Supreme Forest," the Crusaders from "Holy Briania," and the monster army from the "Infinite Sea" disaster area, but before the last great city of Feather City was conquered.
Looking back further, the flourishing goblin empire could not be described as mere ashes, and frankly speaking, the current Supreme Forest, which had declined quite a bit from its heyday, may not even be able to replicate the magic corps' bombardment of the goblin empire from those days.
Looking ahead, the original goblins who were exterminated could not represent the glory of the empire, for when Feather City was about to fall, the new higher-ups almost simultaneously released a "Locking" mechanism hidden in their bloodline.
In just half a day, the goblins were reduced to a horde of irrational monsters, defecating everywhere.
Afterward, if the subsequent goblins didn't coincidentally stumble into relics from passed eras and have their lock released, they wouldn't even qualify to don the Vanguard Armor.
Knowing this, Kael was confident in using the model of that Vanguard Armor to confirm the era of the new Dungeon in advance.
Thus, the timeline for searching for Vanguard Armor could be narrowed down to five to ten years.
Even though more than 200 types of Vanguard Armor were still produced during that period, it was much easier to search for them.
It didn't take Kael long to find the manufacturing time corresponding to that Vanguard Armor.
"Shenhua calendar year 113, a batch produced in Wandong City?"
Seeing this time point, Kael paused for a moment.
The time when Kael arrived in this world was the year 777 of the Shenhua calendar, and now, after two rounds of internal testing and an official public test, the time had come to the year 779 of the Shenhua calendar.
The birth of the Yibel Federation occurred in the year 522 of the Shenhua calendar. Going further back, there was the age of the Loa Spirits causing the Totem Chaos, with the former Totem Coalition crumbling into countless human city-states.
