Episode 1299
Simon’s presentation went smoothly.
First, Simon explained in detail about the resource called ‘Coral’. Just like I had heard the explanation before in Whiteland, I tried to recreate the process by hitting the two resources Fertilium and Volcarium together and then heating them with a lighter.
A moment later, the audience gasped as a purple flash of light erupted from the contact between the two metals.
“But the biggest problem in creating the Coral cannon was how to combine these two resources and fire them safely and accurately.”
The Coral main cannon was made using Whiteland’s unique technology that the continent cannot replicate, and the cannon was made using resources and minerals only found in Whiteland.
It was also discovered through Alaze’s experiments that the two worlds have different climates and atmospheric mana concentrations, making them unsuitable for use as a main force on the continent.
That’s why Simon grafted the Dark Alliance’s undead biotechnology onto the continent’s exclusive Coral Battery.
“The corpse of ‘Molgula’, which is the basis of Metal Lamia, has nine internal organs. First, the Fertilium and Volcarium components are absorbed into two of the organs, and then mixed with the undead’s thought cells and stored. During the launch process, these are combined to a critical state just before explosion and then shot into the atmosphere.”
The audience all nodded and listened to Simon’s detailed explanation.
“When Coral is launched and comes into contact with mana in the atmosphere, a chemical reaction occurs, the protein component that touched the atmosphere disappears, and the two resources collide and collide in earnest. In other words, the principle is that it is released in an explosive manner with ignition the moment it comes out of the mouth.”
hmm!
Oh!
Exclamations of interest came from all over the place. Some nodded their heads as they looked at the copies of the paper Simon had placed on the table.
“but.”
First memory.
Then one hand was raised high.
“After all, isn’t that a technique that only you, the commander, can use?”
Growl, grumble!
The audience murmured as they saw the man raising his hand.
“It’s Bintrada!”
“If it’s Bintra, then it’s the thesis cutter Bintra, right?”
“Why is the Pentamonia’s thesis examiner here… …!”
Bintra was notorious at the Pentammonium conference for tearing up worthless papers right in front of their authors. Among the Kizen students, he was known as the ‘paper cutter’ or ‘Bintra of the paper tearer’.
The students and graduates of Kizen present were looking at him with nervous eyes.
“After reading the contents of the paper, it seems that the process of dividing Fertilium and Volcarium is only possible if you possess a specific unique undead. And it would be an undead of the 7th Legion, so no other necromancer besides the student council president can do it. In that case, wouldn’t this paper be nothing more than the student council president’s self-satisfaction or showing off his achievements?”
Bintra’s eyes lit up.
“What do you think, Student Council President?”
A deathly silence fell over the room. Daniela, who had been listening silently, bit her lip.
‘This is an overly nitpicky point.’
But the reason Daniela couldn’t come forward right away was because she was secretly thinking the same thing as Bintra.
The papers of geniuses like Chatel Maer, Eisel Bringer, and Simon Pollentia are undoubtedly valuable in their own right, but they are impossible for the average person to understand or reproduce.
Are geniuses incompatible with ordinary people? Like water and oil, they cannot mix. Will they use their own language to go higher and higher, leaving ordinary people behind?
It’s as if Kizen graduates are being pointed out as forming a cartel.
“that…….”
“Ouch! Excuse me!”
Just before Simon opened his mouth, someone suddenly ran onto the stage laughing.
It was Arthur Blemann, the mercenary king and second-year Kizen student who had come to help his senior. He was pushing a cart full of documents in both hands.
“The printing was a bit late because I had to add some content at the last minute! Please look at this material along with the original paper!”
“?”
On the cart was a pile of new papers, made of blue paper.
As Arthur made a quick gesture, other Kizen’s minions came and lined up the carts containing the papers to the side, making it easier for the audience to grab them.
People, including Bintra, approached one by one, opened the paper, and began to read it.
“This is no way… … !”
“Yes, that’s right.”
Simon smiled broadly.
“I also thought long and hard about the issues pointed out by Bintra. So I recreated the undead that handles Korhal based on the formula without using the power of the Legion.”
thud!
Simon pulled out a giant toad-like undead, Murgle, the size of an adult from the subspace. With its black skin and sagging body, this undead looked like an unremarkable entity at first glance.
But what surprised people was not the appearance of the undead. It was that Simon did not stop at writing a paper, but created a new undead based on that paper.
This is the paper that proves the thesis.
“The monster Murgle is an omnivore that eats both plants and animals, and it has two types of organs. One organ digests plant-based food, while the other only digests animal-based food, turning it into nutrients for each. The reason Murgle uses different organs is because it needs to create a ‘swamp burp’ that only collects plant-based ingredients and releases them from its mouth.”
Everyone listened to Simon’s explanation without even breathing.
“Back to the main topic, we will focus on the undead Murgle. The bullets for Coral firing are loaded through oral ingestion. Fertilium is mixed with plants to differentiate into vegetable organs, and Volcarium is mixed with meat to differentiate into animal organs.”
Simon dragged the chalk to the blackboard on wheels and moved it quickly. Formulas and ingredients were listed on the blackboard.
“If you fire the Swamp Trum in this state, only Fertilium will come out. Here, you need Chimera knowledge. Cut open the back and surgically connect the animal-like organs.”
The chalk on the blackboard danced, and the audience followed the movement of the chalk, rolling their eyes and taking notes with quills.
‘… … Amazing.’
Daniela was impressed.
‘This presentation is only a graduation thesis presentation in name, but in reality it is a place to prove Kizen students’ performance in front of outsiders. No one was very interested in the thesis. But-‘
The entire audience, even those who weren’t necromancers, held their breath and listened intently to Simon’s story. Even Bintra, who had initially been a troublemaker, was smiling almost from ear to ear.
‘… … To those who are only interested in the commodity called talent, the thesis is being sold as it was originally intended. And it is none other than the student body president and overall number one, Simon Pollentia, who is doing so.’
Detailed analysis and formal development.
Clear explanations that even non-experts can understand.
This is not something that just anyone can do. It will take a lot of effort and focus to prepare all of this in a limited amount of time after the employment assessment.
‘It’s different. There’s definitely something different from others.’
Daniela’s fist tightened.
‘Is this what he meant when he said that the scout was mentally complete?’

I thought that Meyrin and Serene might be interested.
At this moment, Daniela wanted the boy to enter the Ivory Tower more than ever. Even if that didn’t happen, she thought that the Ivory Tower had to maintain good relations with Simon Pollentia at all costs.
Okay!
Simon stopped his chalk and looked at the silent crowd.
“Let’s begin the demonstration. First, the undead toads will fire plant-based foam for the ‘Swamp Trum’.”
Kkeugkeug!
The undead Murgle opened its mouth and fired a droplet. It was a red droplet.
“Then, activate the magic circle inside your body and fire a second animal bubble.”
This time, the drop was blue. The red drop flew slowly towards the sky, while the blue drop flew faster in the same direction.
“deployment!”
The waiting servants waved their arms in unison and formed a defensive barrier in front of the audience. And at that moment, the two drops flying at different speeds collided.
WHAAAAAAHH …
The surrounding area flashed purple and then exploded in a large purple ring that spread out.
People lowered their postures or bowed their heads, making a whoa!
WHHHHHHHH!
The aftermath of the explosion created a whirlwind of wind, and people slowly raised their heads.
Simon was seen standing still, holding onto his flowing hair. His student council coat draped over his shoulders flapped wildly and then fell down.
“The firepower is limited, and in actual combat, the power can be increased a little more. Of course, since it is an undead created for research purposes, I plan to refine it further in the future. At the back of the thesis, I have listed studies that can be referenced using this formula. That’s all.”
Simon bowed his head.
“I will conclude my presentation.”
In the thick silence.
Clap clap.
Bintra, who had pointed out Simon, was the first to applaud in satisfaction.
Clap clap clap clap clap!
Wow!
This was followed by thunderous cheers and applause.
Simon smiled and bowed his head again. The barrier the servants had created was removed, and a hot wind briefly spread around, causing people to raise their voices even louder in the heat.
The most academic conclusion to this paper presentation.
And then there is the rising expectations and value placed on the existence of Simon Pollentia.
Simon didn’t intend to promote himself from the beginning, but he naturally proved his worth in the best way possible.
“Well, this is a thesis!”
“Very good!”
“It was a presentation that satisfied everyone!”
No one present at this moment asked about Simon’s whereabouts, because everyone now realized that they were not in a position to decide Simon’s future.* * *
The graduation thesis presentation was a success.
Simon dragged his tired body towards Pier’s ruins.
‘As I said at the presentation, Murgle’s practicality is not that great.’
But, as expected, there is no such thing as meaningless study in this world.
Simon also formalized the process of making Alazeh and learned a lot from it in the process of making Murgl.
Originally, Simon was content to just see the results Alajeh created and use them to the fullest without complaint, but now he has background knowledge of the production process.
-You know, Alaze. How about changing the next Skullwing nests you build to a single-breeding system instead of a construction system?
-[!]
I gained the ability to ask Alaze questions.
-Instead of dividing the thought cells here, how about degenerating them altogether?
-[Commander. Great idea. But continued degeneration will cause the entire cell to fragment.]
-So it’s not degeneration, but rather excretion through the skin?
Now, I have reached a point where I can understand, understand, and even advise Alazeh to some extent.
So, unlike when Alaze was indifferent at the beginning of the graduation thesis, now Alaze is the one who initiates the conversation. Through Alaze’s thoughts, I could clearly see that my intimacy with Simon had grown.
-I think it would be better if Metal Lamia also had a transformation formula. How about making a completely different undead instead of Murgle?
-[Development to begin immediately.]
Especially when Simon came up with the idea, Alaze started creating coral undead that could be used in actual combat, not just for research purposes.
Currently, Simon has the three major undead, the Death Knight and the Bone Dragon, but he does not have a Lich yet.
Of course, Hersheba was also a lich, but strictly speaking, by finding a body this time, she became a third entity, not a lich.
So this time I thought I’d replenish my Richie again.
[Work is going smoothly.]
Simon followed Alaze into the research building deep within the ruins of Pier, where a purple, throbbing ‘Life Vessel’ was slowly growing.
[Coral Reach Unit Project. The most powerful means to counter the 1st Legion.]
This vacation presents a new challenge for the entire 7th Corps to complete.
