Teacher, Look What I Found

Wang Yi carried the dozens of kilograms of cow bones and flipped over from the blind spot of the surveillance camera on the bridge into the bridge hole below.

After arriving at a place that could block one's vision, Wang Yi casually threw the bag of cow bones to the ground.

The two silver bracelets he had bought last time appeared in his hand.

Originally, ordinary skeletons would definitely not require materials like silver. However, the mana in this world was too lacking. Wang Yi had to make some modifications and engrave magic patterns that absorbed and stored mana on the skeletons.

The silver bracelet melted on Wang Yi's hand and began to glow faintly.

Wang Yi's eyes also began to glow with the brilliance of an arcane spell.

"Grpaoizjiapaxs!"

The liquid silver began to outline itself in the air, and the arcane light in Wang Yi's eyes bloomed to the extreme.

In the next moment, the ox bones that had been thrown aside began to tremble continuously. Then, they began to float in the air and piece together.

As for the floating liquid silver magic patterns, part of them would fly to the joints every time the bones were pieced together, as if they were an invisible adhesive.

Soon, a humanoid skeleton made of cow bones appeared in front of Wang Yi.

Summoning a skeleton was originally a rather simple spell, but it was precisely because of Wang Yi's proof that he found a few practical mathematical tools to complete the improvement.

This skeleton, which belonged to Wang Yi, was an excellent assistant who could have many DIY small functions.

Since it was made from the ox bones, this skeleton clearly looked extremely strong. It was definitely not something that ordinary fragile skeletons could compare to.

With the support of magic patterns and the infusion of mana, this skeleton definitely had the strength of a knight's squire in terms of combat power alone. Moreover, it did not have much of a problem cleaning up the house, serving tea, guarding the house, and even helping out when researching.

Even if it was delivered to a factory, it would be able to turn the screws on an assembly line.

However, it required Wang Yi to make up a few different sets of operational instructions for it. Its potential was far from what the original summoned skeleton could compare to.

Moreover, because the free mana was too lacking, although Wang Yi had used silver magic patterns to enhance it, it still needed to combine work and rest. It either needed to do some low-consumption actions for a long time, or use it for a short period of time and rest to recover. If he exceeded the limit, he would need to inject additional mana.

After completing the initial summoning, the mana that had just recovered was immediately consumed.

The lack of mana in this environment made Wang Yi feel a little uncomfortable.

In the future, he had to build a super mage tower made entirely of mithril and create a top-notch mana pool.

After completing the summoning of the skeleton, Wang Yi first gave it the order to standby, which was equivalent to directly turning it into a large-scale figurine. Then, Wang Yi put on the skeleton a cheap cosplay suit that he had prepared in advance. After disguising it, he carried it on his shoulder and quickly climbed back.

Because it used cow bones, although this skeleton was in human form, the difference was still quite big.

Even if he carried it on the road, it would only attract some curious gazes and not cause panic.

Even ordinary people had heard of cosplay before, not to mention that this was Shudian City. It might be a prop from some production team.

Just like that, Wang Yi carried the skeleton back to the rental house.

There was no sound in Ma Dong's room anymore. He must have sobered up and gone out to work. Something was simmering in the kitchen. It smelled like soup. There were cow bones and seafood.

After returning to his rented apartment, Wang Yi turned on his computer and completed the server order that he had prepared.

Buying the basic framework of the server itself would cost a fortune, but the cost of expanding and modifying the server based solely on one's own needs would be even greater.

Moreover, he needed to pull another fiber optic cable.

However, the vengeful spirit he caught still looked dazed. Its recovery speed was limited and it was a little delayed. He could only start some program compilation and support work first.

Or maybe he should find a fresher one?

Although it was difficult for wraiths to be born in this mana-lacking environment, there was still a high population in China. If he really wanted to find one, he would definitely be able to find some in this city.

Wang Yi had already spent more than half of the 500,000 yuan he had just received.

However, the hardware and facilities needed for the initial stage of artificial intelligence were already complete. He just had to wait a few days for it to be delivered to his doorstep.

After doing all this, he browsed his Twitter and Weibo again.

Very good. The replies that it had been forwarded to professionals had already appeared in the comments on both sides.

As expected, as long as the popularity increased, these problems could be resolved…

Xijiao University, Mathematics Department.

Zhu Biao was 32 years old, but he already crossed the threshold of associate professor and was considered a young and promising backbone of the university.

Moreover, mathematics also required a young age. It was easiest to produce academic results when one was in their twenties or thirties. For example, the Fields Medal required one to be under 40 years old.

This was related to the physiological structure of the human brain. It was almost an unstoppable factor.

Associate Professor Zhu Biao himself had some academic achievements, but his main focus was applied mathematics, and he had already achieved some achievements in discrete mathematics.

As a young associate professor, other than teaching some students, he also had some specialized classes to teach. Because he was funny and his teaching was not rigid, he had a good relationship with the students.

Many students added his YChat.

Today, he received a call from a student who said that he had seen a paper that claimed to prove Goldbach's conjecture. Although he knew that it was fake, he could not find anything wrong with it. It was a little difficult to read and he wanted to consult his teacher.

Zhu Biao couldn't help but laugh at these words. Then, he asked the other party to send the thesis to his email.

After returning to his office, he opened his email and downloaded it. The first glance surprised him.

"It's a well-formatted, clean paper."

Many graduates had to modify the format of their thesis a few times. At the very least, there was nothing wrong with the format of the other party's English-language submission. It was just that the workplace was rather simple.

The layout was also very comfortable, giving people the motivation to continue reading.

"The derivation process looks decent…"

Then, he began to read while drinking his tea. Slowly, he frowned and put the teacup in his hand aside. At the same time, he took out a few pieces of paper and began to gesture on them.

"Heh, I don't believe it."

He had already read a third of the derivation process and it had already come up with three self-proving formula tools. Although he had yet to finish reading them, he already felt that the value of this thesis had increased after following the steps and finding that all three tool formulas were valid.

Each of these three formula tools alone was enough to publish a paper.

And he had only read a third of it!

"Good God."

After completing another calculation with his own formula, a trace of excitement gradually appeared on Zhu Biao's face.

Because the fourth formula was helpful in one area that he was studying, he was inspired.

"What happened?"

A colleague asked curiously when he passed by and saw Zhu Biao waving in excitement.

"I'm calculating the Goldbach conjecture."

"Oh, the two papers by Harold Holfgate of Gaul last month?"

Last month, at the École Normale Supérieure in Paris, Harold Holfgate published two papers announcing the completion of the proof of the weak Goldbach conjecture.

People in their major would definitely pay attention, but number theory was still very different from their applied mathematics.

He knew, but he didn't go and take a look.

"No, maybe something big is going to happen…"

After Zhu Biao completed the evaluation of the fourth formula tool, he also felt that this thesis did not seem to be as simple as a random shocking headline!

When he looked up and realized that it was time to get off work, he felt hungry. Zhu Biao turned around and said to his colleague,

"Xinguang, come over and take a look. This was sent to me by my student. Currently, I've already checked four formula tools. There's not a single mistake. Moreover, one of them is very helpful to me. Shall I ask everyone to study it together?"

At this moment, the teacher called Xinguang walked over and saw Zhu Biao's papers filled with calculations and the thesis sent from the computer…
