"Cough, yes, I don't know when I will come back here," Jason said unnaturally.
He then handed the video data taken in that world to Marcus, saying, "You guys are busy first. I'll send these Dragonglass crystals to Professor Zhou and the others to see if they can research something. After all, this thing may store magical elements."
Hearing Jason's words, Marcus also became curious. "Magical elements? We don't have that here in modern times."
"Who knows? Let the professors study it first." Jason shrugged. He was just a little curious, so he was being casual about it.
Professor Zhou and the others were in the newly built laboratories of the base. The experts in the entire advisory group were mainly researching the subject of Jason traveling through space and the Otherworld, though there was no progress for the time being. This was giving the professors a headache. Now, switching to researching the Dragonglass crystal could also ease their mood. The direction of time and space was truly difficult!
When Professor Zhou and Professor Zhao received these more than ten black and red "stones" personally delivered by Jason, they were a little confused.
"Is this the Dragonglass written in the novel that is suspected to contain fire magic elements?" Professor Zhou picked up a piece of Dragonglass, adjusted his glasses, and observed it carefully.
Several other professors also took a piece out of curiosity. They had all read the entire novel and were curious about the strange stone that could kill the White Walkers.
"Yes, this is the Dragonglass from the world of A Song of Ice and Fire. Melisandre followed Stannis to Castle Black and brought a wagon full of stones like this!" Jason affirmed.
While observing the Dragonglass from the Otherworld, Professor Zhou asked, "Mr. Liu, do you want us to study this kind of stone?"
Jason nodded quickly. "That's right, Professor Zhou. I'm a little curious about what is so special about this kind of stone that it can store magical elements. I don't know if anything can be researched on our modern side. So, I brought it back and wanted you experts to help study it."
"Hahaha, no problem, I'm also a little curious about this Dragonglass stone. Mr. Liu, you can just give it to a few of us old guys. The equipment and other parts are all here at the base," Professor Zhou agreed with a smile. It wasn't a difficult task for them anyway.
Seeing that these academician-level bigwigs agreed to help with the research, Jason was very happy. He left the Dragonglass and departed. He was a scumbag from an ordinary university, and he couldn't help with experimental research at all; he didn't even know the names of the instruments that needed to be used.
Handing over the matter of the Dragonglass to Professor Zhou and the others, Jason tried to call Lin Xiaohan, wondering how she was feeling now.
Because Jason was in the world of A Song of Ice and Fire, in order to gain control over the North, he had to gather all the forces of the North and the Riverlands to fight against the ghoul army and win that life-or-death battle. The foreigner married Sansa Stark as his wife and thus successfully took over the entire North.
Originally, Jason's idea was that since no one knew he had married a wife in the Otherworld, it wouldn't matter if he had a girlfriend here in the modern era. But who would have thought that he was discovered by the National Security people and had to honestly explain his affairs in Westeros?
After discussion by the advisory group, it was finally decided to inform Lin Xiaohan of the facts. After all, Lin Xiaohan was already participating in the whole plan, which meant it was no longer possible to hide the fact that Jason had a wife in Westeros.
So, Jason confessed to his girlfriend. Lin Xiaohan didn't expect her boyfriend to marry Sansa Stark in the opposite world. She was confused and angry for a while. However, she wasn't as angry as Jason had imagined. After all, they were people from two different worlds. Her boyfriend only had one woman on the modern side, so in a sense, it wasn't a betrayal or infidelity.
Coupled with the help of women in the group to persuade her, Lin Xiaohan agreed in confusion and did not make trouble for Jason. But she still didn't give Jason a good look for several days.
From the perspective of the entire planning team, everyone didn't care about Jason having multiple women. Compared with the resources and markets of a world, the little things between men and women were truly not worth mentioning.
After being persuaded by many people in turn, the righteous Lin Xiaohan knew in her heart that she couldn't let a small temper cause conflicts over this kind of issue, so she could only ignore it. Jason also gradually realized that since Lin Xiaohan knew the secret and was participating in the whole plan, she was trapped.
If Lin Xiaohan broke up with him on the grounds of his infidelity, Lin Xiaohan herself would be the most hurt. Without the identity of Jason's girlfriend, Lin Xiaohan , an ordinary girl, would be completely insignificant in this major plan that affected the future of the country. For the sake of secrecy, she might be randomly locked in an unknown secret location and never be free again for a lifetime.
Thinking of this, Jason couldn't help but be horrified. Between the country and the individual, the individual was truly too small. Jason , who already felt sorry for Lin Xiaohan in his heart, would never give up on her, because this was the only thing he could do to protect her. Therefore, regarding Lin Xiaohan's indifference these days, Jason continued to coax her with kind words, not wanting to tell her the dark thoughts in his mind, for fear of scaring this innocent and kind girl.
The Results
In the underground base laboratory, Professor Zhou and the others held the dozen pieces of Dragonglass and began testing the characteristics of the stone.
The results showed:
Hardness: $4.8-5.0$, close to hematite.
It has strong acid and alkali resistance.
It has low transparency, and is black and red.
Then, the test results including true density, volume resistance, surface resistance, gloss, and refractive index also came out.
The most concerning tests were on the elemental composition and atomic structure of the Dragonglass, which everyone was very curious about.
When the assistants used instruments to measure the elemental composition and material structure of the Dragonglass, the lead experts were immediately surprised. Dragonglass was mainly composed of two elements, carbon and silicon, and the structure was a spherical special body. It was a special silicon carbide structure that had never appeared in modern times.
Seeing this result, the experts and professors were in high spirits and immediately began to test the unique properties of the Dragonglass.
