Chapter 56 Preparing for the Journey

Hill listened carefully to Fran's detailed teaching inside the crystal ball. He vaguely understood why Adrian said it was a completely opposite direction.

Although Hill studied civil engineering, he had a dual degree in geology. Back then, he thought if he couldn't get into graduate school for civil engineering, he would go to the geology department to study minerals.

So, he had studied mineralogy.

Years of habit made him instinctively want to research the electronic configuration of crystal ions.

Upon discovering that space crystals were made up of single elements and couldn't be separated, he began studying crystal defects and valence changes.

To Hill, who had conducted years of experiments, the variability and complexity of single elements were not too difficult. He felt confident he had summarized most of the laws of definite proportions.

But in this world, such systematic research did not yet exist.
