Wizard: Starting from Escaping Another World to Pioneering

Matthew was referring to the calculus content he learned in school. As a top student in his previous life, he hadn't forgotten all of it.

However, he did not reveal the contents all at once to avoid arousing suspicion.

He rested his chin on his hand and paced around the room in deep thought, under the gaze of the two men.

A moment later, Matthew walked to the desk and pointed to the witchcraft shape on the draft paper.

"If we consider the area between these two points as a region and divide it into many very small segments, the smaller the value of each segment, or the closer the value is to 0, the more accurate the shape calculation will be."

"Also, we can..."

And so, Matthew, sometimes pondering, sometimes pausing, gradually derived a series of calculus concepts such as definite integrals and derivatives.

About an hour later...

"Great, great, great!" Lucien couldn't help but slam his hand on the table. "Matthew, your idea is really good. This method greatly improves the efficiency of calculating the shape of witchcraft."

He had recently lost a lot of hair from calculating the complex state of this witchcraft, so when he heard Matthew's derivation of this so-called "calculus," he felt like he had struck gold.

If Silas hadn't been there, he would have hugged Matthew tightly and told him about his painful calculations over the past few days.

At this moment, his opinion of Matthew changed considerably. Although Matthew's wizarding aptitude was poor, he was able to come up with some practical computing tools.

Silas fell silent, glancing at Matthew with surprise in his eyes.

With his intelligence, he immediately understood what the other person was saying, but he didn't expect that this was a method devised by a novice apprentice.

This calculation method is far more efficient than the cumbersome method of the Golden Eighteen Laws.

This is not to say that Matthew is smarter than them, but rather that those involved are often blinded by their own perspectives, and sometimes people need new ideas.

Wizards only focus on pursuing power and don't value these mathematical tools. They can easily get a bunch of apprentices to help with calculations by spending a few magic stone fragments. Who would bother to study something that doesn't directly enhance strength?

Because his sorcery did not take into account the unevenness of the curves in its shape and structure, a crack always remained in a certain corner of the spell, preventing it from being perfectly released.

He came up with two solutions. One was to precisely calculate the shape of the entire spell so that the magic could evenly support each node. However, due to the enormous amount of calculation required, he handed the task over to Lucien.

The second method was to modify the entire form of the witchcraft, but this involved the core of the witchcraft, which could affect the whole body if one part was changed. For this reason, he had been stuck at a bottleneck for a while.

He even began to doubt the validity of his own witchcraft, but unexpectedly, Matthew, his novice apprentice, helped him complete the witchcraft.

"He is indeed quite talented in mathematics, it's just a pity that his aptitude is too poor."

Silas sighed. "Matthew, right? Your idea is excellent. You don't need to come out of the Poison Ivy anymore. Go and help Lucian calculate the spell shape."

He paused, then continued, "Also, you've done me a huge favor this time, so I can answer one of your questions for free."

Upon hearing this, Matthew immediately perked up. He never expected that simply restating what he had learned before would earn him the opportunity to ask questions to a formal wizard.

"Knowledge truly changes destiny!"

Without the slightest hesitation, he asked the question he most wanted answered: "I want to know how to resolve the soul corruption!"

Silas was taken aback. In the study of souls, soul erosion is a field that only advanced apprentices would come into contact with, and even many formal wizards would treat it as a subject of study.

Ms. Clara of the school suffered a backlash from her own soul because of her research on soul erosion.

He looked at Matthew with a puzzled expression, never expecting that this novice apprentice would ask such a question.

However, he did not intend to investigate why Matthew had asked about soul corruption.

Celes fell silent and did not answer immediately.

Because he doesn't understand either...

"This... this..."

Silas coughed lightly, seeing Matthew's expectant expression.

"Well, some powerful magical beast bloodlines can resolve soul corruption. If you have this problem, you can try fusing with the bloodlines of those magical beasts..."

Upon hearing this, Matthew couldn't help but feel disappointed. According to the common sense of bloodline studies, under normal circumstances, each person can only fuse with one bloodline.

Different bloodlines can conflict and reject each other. Without special methods, forcibly fusing two or more bloodlines will inevitably lead to genetic collapse.

At this moment, Matthew suddenly recalled the prompt given by the system when he used it to check the information on Mold.

[Ingredients: 70% water, 15% protein, 7% fat, toxic pyroxene gene, iron pyroxene gene...]

"Poisonous Breath Dragon Gene, Iron Sand Dragon Gene..."

How did Mold manage to possess the bloodlines of two different dragons simultaneously?

Silas felt a little embarrassed when he saw the disappointment on Matthew's face.

He could certainly sense that Matthew had been fused with bloodlines, but his expertise in alchemy and shaping meant he had little contact with the study of souls, so he didn't know how to deal with soul erosion.

He coughed again. "Your calculus method is very useful for many calculations in plasticity."

I've reassessed the value of this method, and based on the principle of equivalent exchange, you can ask me one more question.

Matthew's thoughts were pulled back by Slas's words.

He had been trying to improve the Burning Hand, but modifying it based on the original spell was too difficult. He later changed his approach and decided to try a new direction to improve it.

And he has just found this direction.

"Lord Silas, I want to study sculpting!"

Silas remained noncommittal upon hearing this, saying, "Sure, but how much you learn depends on yourself."

"Don't worry, sir, I know the rules!"

Silas turned to Lucian, "For the rest of the time, you and Matthew will calculate the shape of the sorcery."

In my spare time, I'll guide him through some basic sculpting knowledge—remember, just the basics.

Lucian nodded solemnly, "Yes, mentor Silas."

……

And so, Matthew began his new job.

He came to the laboratory every day to help Lucian calculate the structural shape of the Silas sorcery.

Lucian, on the other hand, would dedicate an hour each afternoon to guiding him through the basics of plasticity.

Calculus is ultimately just a mathematical tool; its value is only enough to provide introductory knowledge of plasticity.

But Matthew didn't care, because he had the system.
