Within the Department of Electrical Research, Sleydon Watt is undeniably the leader.

Beneath him, there are various research groups directly responsible to him, focusing on different aspects of electricity application.

For example, using electric current to drive mechanical transmission, as a source of power.

Or, using electric current directly as a weapon.

There are also more whimsical proposals. After all, electricity has only recently been discovered, and everything requires inspiration.

What William Jessel is responsible for is the transmission of information via electric current.

Below him, there are various researchers.

Going down from the researchers, there are research assistants like Su Lu and the more pitiful Andrew, are fundamentally on the bottom tier of the pyramid.

“We know…the speed of an electric current is very fast, extremely fast! And the experiments of static electricity response have also been proven…..”

Shortly after, William Jessel arrived, stating excitedly, “If we can accomplish our plan to get the electric current to carry the information we want it to carry, it will surpass all postmen, carriages, even trains! It will become the best carrier of information in the new era! ”

Su Lu was assisting on the side, observing silently the experimental device before him.

It had complex lines, divided into thirty-six, each entering different saltwater tubes.

On each saltwater tube, there were detailed markings, they were letters of the Common Hebrew language along with some common symbols.

This is the receiving end; it will be used to express the information in the electric current.

“What’s the status of the receiving terminal?”

Hearing William’s question, Su Lu promptly stepped forward to check:

“Everything is normal!”

“Very good! I’m going to start!”

From several meters away, William used the typewriter in his hand.

With each letter he typed, an electric current would run through the circuit, enter different saltwater tubes, causing an electrolysis reaction that produces tiny bubbles.

“Slow down! Slow down…quickly, record it!”

Cecilia watched this scene, her cheeks flushed with excitement: “Gre…Tree…

Castle!”

These were not stammers, but information typed letter by letter.

“Absolutely right, it’s ‘Green Tree Castle’! Ha ha…” William laughed loudly, “We succeeded!”

For a moment, the people in the lab all cheered.

“The prototype of the telegraph?” Amidst the cheers, Su Lu mused to himself,

“What a pity…it’s not practical at all.”

“Good!”

After trying a few more times, William made a decision, “Report the experimental results, apply for more funding… this time, I want to challenge a distance of one hundred meters, no! One thousand meters!” Watching so many people cheering, Su Lu felt a toothache.

After the experiment, in the office.

“Professor, may I come in?

Su Lu knocked on the door from outside.

Since William didn’t take him as a student, he couldn’t call him a tutor.

“Yes!”

William’s voice came from inside, and he showed a rare smile at the sight of Su Lu entering.

Firstly, because the experiment was successful and he was in a good mood, and secondly, over time, Su Lu had proven to be truly capable.

“I’ve heard that you’ve been reading in the data room recently? Good, very good… Electricity is an emerging discipline, but I believe in its potential!” William smiled.

“I too hold supreme confidence, and furthermore, there is one thing.”

Su Lu smiled as he handed over two papers, “This is the thesis I’m preparing to publish. Professor, what do you think?”

“The inference of Direct Current?”

William took a look at them and his eyes lit up immediately, “Good, very good… it even inspires me! I want to do two more experiments. I think it’s worth 10 points, solely on the strength of this thesis, you can promote to researcher!”

“Thank you!” Su Lu politely responded, finally bringing up the real purpose of his visit, “Today’s experiment, it indeed holds hope for the transmission of electrical information… but I think it has some issues, it’s too unstable…”

Su Lu chose to say this privately after the experiment as it would be somewhat face-losing to say it public. “If it’s just for the experiment, there’s nothing wrong. But it’s almost impossible to mass produce. Maybe we should consider a different approach!”

“A different approach!”

William’s stern face straightened again, “Are you implying that I would fail in the experiment?”

“No, no, Professor… what I mean is, the experiment might succeed, but it would be very challenging to continue down this path!” Su Lu tactfully proposed his suggestion.

“Get out!”

William’s face darkened, “Remember, you are just an assistant! And science, it requires constant exploration, especially in new disciplines!”

“I apologize!”

Su Lu turned and left.

On leaving the Information Building, he looked at the clouds in the sky and sighed.

Not everyone has his experience, knowing which path is the right one and which path leads to a dead-end.

But scientific research requires some hard heads.

Only after finding the path completely impassable, after many trials and tribulations, we can prove the path is wrong and should be abandoned!

Late at night.

In his dormitory at his desk, Su Lu was eagerly writing, “About several inferences of Direct Current in the future…”

In any case, he had to write this thesis first, then consider getting those ten points.

After William’s assessment today, he was even more confident in this thesis.

After who knows how long, Su Lu came to his last period, stood up, stretched his waist.

He came to the window, staring at the almost pitch-black night outside, and the sky full of stars with the moon. “This used to be my planned life. What a pity…”

All meals and lodging included, with generous perks.

Basically, even a university student would find it hard to find a similar job.

If according to the original plan, Su Lu would have slowly released the knowledge he knew, eventually earning a title like theoretical physicist.

And adding the gain from patents, or perhaps starting a company, he could then make a successful transition into a businessman, allowing the Pottery family to flourish in the White Eagle Federation.

Unfortunately, the appearance of the Dawn of the Gods changed everything.

“Even…not only the mystical aspect, even physics must change because of them!”

“For this reason, I have to improve my identity as soon as possible, even if it’s a little aggressive!”

Su Lu returned to his desk, picked up his previous thesis, and began writing about some new knowledge points he remembered.

Since becoming a transcendent, especially of the spirit characteristic type, he found that his memory was becoming clearer and clearer. Whether before or after the transmigration, as long as he thinks about it, he can recall most of them.

This was of great help to the sorting out of his past knowledge.

“According to my observations during this period, in the field of electromagnetic information, Professor William’s team is indeed leading, and their ultimate goal is the telegraph?”

“In fact… some of the prerequisite knowledges have been almost completed by the team. The only thing left is a direction!”

This is the difficulty in scientific research.

Even though all prerequisite conditions are met, the correct path cannot be found, lacking Newton’s proverbial apple.

But not Su Lu!

The experience of his previous life allowed him to take a shortcut, to walk directly towards the most correct direction, avoiding the detours that could take tens or even hundreds of years.

“Morse Code! It’s your turn!”
