Pioneer Lord: Starting From Daily Intelligence

Su Li couldn't help but smile. This trip really couldn't be separated from adventures; opportunities were abundant everywhere.

However, wasn't Hilude going to sign the agreement? What kind of adventure could happen at a camp of the Imperial Engineering College?

Su Li smiled and asked, "You encountered a giant dragon attacking the camp, causing chaos all over the place. You accidentally picked up a magical chicken that lays bombs in the camp. Then, you could summon a whole bucket of bomb family using the 'Chicken, You're So Beautiful' spell every day. You successfully defeated the giant dragon with exploding eggs and saved the camp. Grateful, the academy gifted you a pure Unicorn mount. But since you're not a pure maiden, you had to go through some trouble to tame it. From then on, this narcissistic unicorn developed the habit of fluttering its eyes and must be washed with rose essential oil every day. Every time it goes to battle, it flutters its eyes at the enemy, shouting 'You can hit me, but don't mess up my bangs!' "

Hilude burst into laughter, her mood particularly bright, then she happily finished the tender venison Su Li had cut for her, and said with a smile, "Although this joke is quite outrageous, the situation was actually not far from it."

Su Li's eyes suddenly widened. No way, he had just randomly made up a joke without thinking, and it really matched the reality?

Hilude said with a bright smile, "The situation wasn't as exaggerated as your joke. When I arrived, a team of beastmen was attacking the camp of the Imperial Engineering College. A two-legged flying dragon had already broken through the apprentices' defenses, causing chaos. I casually chopped off the head of the two-legged flying dragon and helped them repel the beastman attack. They saw my identity as the Chosen One of the Sun Goddess and were extremely favorable."

Su Li raised an eyebrow and asked, "The identity of the Chosen One of the Sun Goddess? What does it have to do with the Imperial Engineering College? How could seeing your identity make their favorability soar?"

Hilude patiently explained, "It was also my first time learning that the Imperial Engineering College has a special connection with the followers of Her Majesty Violet. Many engineers among them are fervent followers of the Sun Goddess."

Su Li's eyes lit up, that explains it. A group of fervent followers, seeing the arrival of the Chosen One of the Sun Goddess who saved them from disaster, how could their favorability not increase? They might even think this was the Sun Goddess sent to save them.

"Describe in detail the situation with the engineers, how come they have connections with Her Majesty Violet."

"The Terrabheim Imperial Engineer School, also known as the Imperial Engineer College, is the most prestigious organization of engineers and engineering masters in the Empire. It was founded by the imperial genius Leonardo de Miraglino and has been responsible for many technological innovations of the Empire over the past centuries."

"In its long history, the school has been rebuilt at least a dozen times following erroneous experiments and catastrophic failures. The Imperial Engineering College carefully positioned itself as a secular institution with a mild inclination towards Redemaism (an attitude considered appropriate for any major institution in Terrabheim). But as a Divine Spirit with special connections to the science of war, Her Majesty Violet has many followers within the school."

"Ordinary soldiers might think Violet is the goddess of officers, but she also has some of the most fervent followers among the ranks of engineers. The Imperial Engineer School is one of the wealthiest institutions in the Empire, providing rune armor and engineering equipment to provinces nationwide."

"Nowadays, the main work of the Engineering College is to propose new ideas to counter the Empire's threats; anti-aircraft weapons, tunnel boring machines, ice rays, war chariots, alchemy bombs, and other strange devices (such as an ultra-large submersible, mainly a barrel with a pedal wheel inside to drive a propeller). Unlike the Magic Academy, which is an independent institution, the Engineer Academy mixes alchemists, medics, biologists, astronomers (as opposed to astrologers of the Celestial Academy), and various troublesome and genius madmen in one place."

Hearing those classic and familiar words—one of the wealthiest institutions in the entire Empire! Su Li instantly confirmed that this must be an institution closely related to Her Majesty Violet.
