This development ... seems to be a bit beyond imagination?

Watching the old man smiling like a madman, Arthur did not know what to say.

What he scribbled... was very good?

He was completely unaware of this!

He had just 'eaten' twelve books, how can it become so powerful?

"... but it's missing something...."

"Direction!"

Dr. Erskine suddenly yelled.

"What?"

Arthur's attention was drawn.

"What you know is all over the place. A bit of everything. What you lack now is a proper direction! .. wait, wait, um..."

Dr. Erskine exclaimed: "Now that I am aware of your situation, can I have some of your time now?"

"Apart from getting some rest, eating and bathroom emergencies, my free time is definitely yours, right?"

"Great!"

Dr. Erskine spoke: "That said, since we both have enough time until this evening. Now, let's go, get up and wash your face and refresh yourself! As a soldier, you actually let me this old man wake up before you! Hurry up."

He was somehow in the doctor's study.

He still couldn't understand... were twelve books enough to pass as a genius?

Wasn't this too easy?

Dr. Erskine brought out two pieces of paper and put it in front of him: "Come on, let's see your level!"

Arthur's eye twitched.

Exam?!

Childhood nightmare vs A war! He did not know what was worse.

This reminded him of the dark memories of his past school days.

He couldn't help but shudder. After picking up the pen on the table, he found out that the contents of this paper were not particularly difficult.

Starting from the first question, his pen only stopped while reading the question. Only on the second page did his pace slow down.

It was easy, since everything was basically printed in his mind.

He took slightly more than 20 minutes. Putting down the pen, he looked at Dr. Erskine.

It turned out that Dr. Erskine was watching him all the time.

He was a little embarrassed: "That..."

"Art..." Dr. Erskine looked at him with a slightly complicated look: "I never thought that I would have met someone like you. You have the best grasp of the basics I have ever seen !"

Dr. Erskine seems to be thinking about his own words: "Knowledge is a wonderful thing. Never ending. It is impossible to study every subject thoroughly. The more you know, the more you can discover. There is always a bigger sky waiting for you. Though, not finding the end is disappointing."

Dr. Erskine smiled: "But we can record our research and pass on our legacy to those younger, more energetic and more talented people to study!"

"Art!"

Dr. Erskine's sudden call made him climb out of his brain hole.

"You need a proper guidance to further your studies!"

Dr. Erskine looked at the summer night: "Your test results were perfect. It turns out that you have a very profound interest in this respect. Much different than what your father told me about you."

Arthur was scratching his head, a little bewildered and embarrassed, he had never been praised before.

He didn't know what to say for a while.

Two people were looking at each other, the atmosphere was inexplicable.

Finally, Arthur, taking the hint, said in a hurry: "But l don't have anyone to guide me."

"I know!"

Dr. Erskine quickly replied: "Yes, maybe you never thought about it. Otherwise, you should already have a proper subject you want to pursue. But you don't. And now it doesn't matter anymore, it doesn't matter, which is really great!"

"What?"

"Anyway", Dr. Erskine looked at him seriously: "If you like, you can follow me and see what I am researching!"

"Really?"

Arthur did not expect him to be so direct.

"Of course"

Dr. Erskine sighed deeply: "I know my own situation, Arthur, even if it's you, can you really guarantee my safety ? I want to say... you are a genius. If one day, I have an accident, at least you can remember everything I have studied."

"This... isn't this too reckless? You don't even know me..."

"I know everything you!", Dr. Erskine said: " Colonel Phillips told me a lot about you, ever since you were in your rebellious period, he spoke to me a few times. That said, I still remember one of the girls called..."

"Ok, stop!"

He quickly stopped him, what is this special mess? He don't know any of the things that the old man said.
