The Ancient Capital Military Department moved quickly.
They said they would arrange a trip to the Demon Capital Research Institute, and they departed that same evening.
By the time the sun rose the next day,
Jiang Yuan had already arrived at the entrance of the Research Institute, slowly passing through the gate in a large truck.
The truck carried not only the imperial jade seal, Qin Yun, and Qin Feng, but also some Undead System materials specifically for the Research Institute to use in their Undead research.
The Research Institute members had received the news early; as soon as they heard that the imperial jade seal had appeared, they all put down their work and lined up at the entrance like penguins, waiting.
When the Military Law Enforcers helped Qin Yun and Qin Feng off the truck, they immediately swarmed over.
"The imperial jade seal, where is the imperial jade seal?"
"Quick, let us see it, there must be a huge secret inside!"
"This is the imperial jade seal owned by Qin Shi Huang; it might even be the ultimate treasure of the Undead System!!"
"..."
The usually silent Research Institute members instantly erupted, chattering away.
Some sharp-eyed ones immediately spotted the imperial jade seal in Qin Yun's hand and stealthily reached out to touch it.
Feng Zhoulong, the head of the Demon Capital Research Institute, was also among these people; his secondary cultivation was the Undead System, and he was even more interested in the imperial jade seal.
"Such dense death energy." Feng Zhoulong's attention shifted from the imperial jade seal to Qin Yun and Qin Feng, and he frowned.
"Don't rush to study the imperial jade seal; the Ancient Capital said to save the people first."
Feng Zhoulong held high prestige; as soon as he spoke, the other Research Institute members reluctantly withdrew their gazes and began discussing the most suitable rescue plan.
Although the Research Institute usually focused on researching magic, demons, and artifacts, they were quite accomplished in saving people.
They would provide the methods, and how to implement them would be left to the Potion Association and the Mage Hospital.
Soon, they finalized the treatment plan.
Feng Zhoulong found Jiang Yuan, who had been waiting for a long time, and comforted him: "Are those two people, who were eroded by death energy, your teacher and martial uncle? They don't have any major problems; we will send them to the hospital, and they will fully assist them."
"They will gradually wake up within three days, so don't worry too much."
"Thank you!" Jiang Yuan sincerely thanked him.
This matter had originated because of him; if anything truly unexpected happened, he would live in guilt for the rest of his life.
"Go get some rest; it's a long and bumpy journey from the Ancient Capital, so you must be very tired," Feng Zhoulong said.
Jiang Yuan wasn't particularly tired, though.
Neither his mind nor his body felt any fatigue.
He shook his head, declining, and then asked, "Can I visit the Research Institute? I've always been very curious about it."
"Of course, we welcome young mages like you to visit here," Feng Zhoulong said with a smile.
Young people nowadays, when they enter school, they only learn how to fight; very few students are willing to develop in the direction of the Research Institute.
However, this was also due to the international social environment; no one advocated for magic research, so it couldn't be blamed on the students.
Under Feng Zhoulong's guidance, Jiang Yuan entered the experimental area of the Demon Capital Research Institute.
At this time, those Research Institute members were gathered around the imperial jade seal, researching it.
The mages from the Ancient Capital had been unable to separate the imperial jade seal from Qin Yun and Qin Feng, but they had managed it quite easily.
"I never expected that the qin dynasty imperial jade seal would have a day of reappearance; we all thought it had been destroyed long ago or buried somewhere in the wilderness," Feng Zhoulong sighed with emotion.
"Is the imperial jade seal attracting something?" Jiang Yuan asked.
Feng Zhoulong shook his head: "We don't know that yet; further research is needed to confirm."
Although Jiang Yuan really wanted to know if the imperial jade seal was attracting the Sha Abyss, he also knew that this matter couldn't be rushed.
He believed that with Feng Zhoulong's level, he would be able to get an answer.
After all, Feng Zhoulong was the creator of the Fusion Magic!
...
For the next period, Jiang Yuan stayed in the Demon Capital.
Qin Yun and Qin Feng gradually woke up in the hospital.
However, due to the erosion of death energy, they needed a period of recuperation; this erosion could not be immediately eradicated even by Healing.
Unless they found mages from the Parthenon Temple, only they would have a way.
But it wasn't necessary; a longer period of recuperation could also eradicate it.
While taking care of Qin Yun and Qin Feng in the hospital, Jiang Yuan also frequently visited the Demon Capital Research Institute.
Gradually, he became familiar with Feng Zhoulong.
Today, Jiang Yuan came to the Research Institute as usual.
The Research Institute's research focus during this period was entirely on the imperial jade seal.
Seeing Jiang Yuan arrive, Feng Zhoulong joked, "You come here every day; why don't I discuss it with Mingzhu Academy and just let you study directly at the Research Institute?"
"I'll have to consider that," Jiang Yuan replied seriously.
Feng Zhoulong smiled and continued to tinker with some research materials in his hand.
Jiang Yuan sat by his side, thinking that the time was almost right; it was time to plant a seed of the Fusion Magic in Feng Zhoulong's mind.
After waiting for a short while, Jiang Yuan spoke: "Old Feng, I've had an idea for a while now: can magic be fused together to produce some unexpected effects?"
"Why would you have such an idea?" Feng Zhoulong looked up in surprise.
He then explained: "Based on existing theories, different types of magic cannot be fused. Many people have attempted practical operations, and it was considered very lucky if they only ended up crippled."
"Compared to magic fusion, the operability of magic combination is much greater."
"For example, wind aiding fire: Wind System magic combined with Fire System magic can make the fire burn more fiercely. As for fusion, whether from a practical or theoretical standpoint, it carries extremely high risks, and the benefits are completely disproportionate to the effort."
"What if we first create a spiritual vortex in the spiritual space and store magic inside it..." Jiang Yuan roughly recounted the theory Mo Fan learned after mastering the Fusion Magic.
The more Feng Zhoulong listened, the brighter his eyes became.
According to what was said, it seemed there was indeed a certain feasibility.
If this could truly work...
"I must say, you are truly talented, and your ideas are more innovative than us old guys."
Feng Zhoulong looked at Jiang Yuan with eyes that seemed to be gazing at a rare treasure.
Jiang Yuan laughed awkwardly, saying, "I just provided an idea."
He was really afraid of being entangled by Feng Zhoulong.
He dared not say another word.
But one sentence was enough.
For researchers, even if something seems impossible, they will try it before making a decision.
Especially if there is a certain possibility of it being realized.
The seed has been planted early, and the time it takes to grow into a towering tree will be significantly shortened.
Leave professional matters to the professionals.
Jiang Yuan only needed to reap the fruits himself.
