It is a tedious task to test out a combination that meets the requirements from a vast number of basic spells and basic materials - although the overall research environment of the Magical Technology Institute is pleasant, this does not mean that the research work itself It’s also light-hearted and enjoyable.
Cohen has been conducting these basic tests for dozens of days. During these dozens of days, he has tested nearly a hundred different magic materials with more than a dozen different magic effects - including combining various New materials formed after mixing magic materials. During these tests, he did find that some substances would change when stimulated by specific types of spells, such as softening, hardening, expansion and contraction, etc., but they fully met the project requirements. Moreover, a combination with a reversible process has not yet appeared.
But he was still doing these tests silently, and recorded the results of each test in detail.
He adapts to this kind of boring work. In fact, he even likes this kind of boring work a little bit, just like he also likes precision, likes planning, and likes to use one step at a time to get from the research institute. Entering the laboratory through the front door - when he was in the royal capital, a girl he secretly admired commented on his quirks as "weird, rigid, and a little neurotic", but Cohen could not change his habits after all.
After several detection runes on the magic experiment table slowly dimmed, Cohen emptied the samples and placed them separately, and then reset the experimental environment. He took out a thin piece of copper-silver alloy from the sample box at hand, clamped the piece of alloy to a fixed bracket in the center of the experimental table, and then pressed the bracket down so that it came into contact with the runes carved on the experimental table. circuit, and then he raised a set of metal devices next to the experimental table -
This metal device looked like an arm composed of several iron rods covered with runes. At the front end of the "arm" , fixed with a high-quality magic focus crystal. This device is called the "Magic Exciter" and is one of the most indispensable tools in the magic technology laboratory. By adjusting the sequence of several rune triggers at the connection between the rune iron rod and the experimental bench, it can be connected to a large rune "palette" located on the back of the table. The disc-shaped rune is jokingly called the "palette". A dozen of the most basic magic arrays are prefabricated on the device, which can easily release the spell effects required by the experimenter.
The ordinary technicians in the magic laboratory who do not have magic talents rely on this kind of thing to conduct complex magic experiments.
Magicians like Cohen who have the ability to cast spells quickly realized the value of this thing after coming into contact with the "Magic Exciter" and fell in love with it in just a few days. This is a useful device.
In his opinion, this is simply a great invention - the magic activator relies on the magic network buried under the laboratory floor, so there is almost no problem of mana depletion, and it can release There are almost all types of basic spell effects, but ordinary spell casters are limited by their talents. There are situations where certain spells cannot be cast. In the end, it is also the most frustrating thing for science.What makes En satisfied is that the magic actuator is a kind of machine. All its structures, materials, and parameters are fixed. Before failure, this device can ensure that every spell impact released is accurate. This is for It is self-evident what meaning it has for those engaged in magic research!
And such a genius creation was invented by the young lady who was standing in the center of the laboratory and discussing with several senior technicians enthusiastically - in fact, the entire laboratory She invented more than half of all new devices.
It is said that her spellcasting level is only level three.
Everyone is a low-level mage, so why is she so good... Could it be because her surname is "Cecil"?
Cohen collected the thoughts that were wandering in his mind and activated the magic activator.
The focusing crystal quickly brightened, and a moment later, an electric arc struck the alloy surface from the tip of the crystal, leaving shallow traces on the alloy surface as the crystal moved.
Cohen immediately began to test various changes in the alloy samples after that, and recorded the results:
"X day, month X, year X, XX test, sample number XX, arcane lightning acts on the surface of the copper-silver alloy, leaving discolored dents. The area of the sample affected by magic produces weak arcane affinity properties. This process may be irreversible and can be used to create new high-performance array substrates. ..."
The tests so far have not obtained the desired results, but this does not mean that these tests are meaningless. In tests that are almost random, the researchers have discovered There are many new magical material properties, most of which are new properties of mixed materials. All of these properties will be recorded in detail. One day in the future, maybe one of the properties will come in huge use - as of today, the project has Some researchers have even set discovering new material properties as their work goal, and this is really a very motivating thing.
As a mage from the royal capital who was born orthodox, Cohen knew that in the past era, there were no mage who discovered new material properties or created new mixed magic materials from daily experiments. However, all the old research They are all independent, closed, and fragmented. Those traditional mages found them in their dark and cramped wizard towers, and then regarded them as treasures. They may not share their discoveries with the outside world in their lifetime. As long as these mages die, they The discoveries will also be buried in the graves - like in the Magical Technology Research Institute, a large group of people conduct large-scale tests in a planned and orderly manner, and then put all the findings together, and there are also people responsible for coordinating the rules of the experiments. Things that are unimaginable to traditional mages.
It is precisely because of this that the experimental efficiency here is simply astonishingly high.
After completing this batch of data recording, Cohen did not rest. He sealed the samples and related records, handed them to his colleagues, and immediately prepared for the next step.Testing of samples.
But just when he clamped the sample, aligned the crystal of the magic activator with the fixed bracket, and was about to press the rune trigger, a gradually deepening buzz suddenly came from under the experimental table. , and then the flashing runes on the tabletops of several surrounding groups dimmed, including his experimental table.
"What's going on? My equipment stopped..." "It's a new crystal, isn't it overloaded?" "Did the magic stop?" "Who is using the heating pad on the experimental table again? Are you cooking noodles?" "Over there, who's next to the inspection plug? Check to see if the fuse is burned out."
Cohen was stunned for a moment before he realized from the complaints all around him. As the problem is not on the experimental bench, there should be something wrong with the magic network node in the laboratory. There are currently two forms of magic supply in the territory, one is the wireless magic field provided by the magic obelisk in each block, and the other is the wireless magic field provided by the magic obelisk in each block. The first is the traditional direct contact with the magic network to extract energy. The First Practical Technology Research Laboratory happens to have a built-in magic network in the laboratory (experimental high-performance magic network), so half of the experimental benches are Connected to the Magic Network in a traditional way.
After reacting, Cohen immediately put down what he was holding and walked around behind his experimental desk. Behind his experimental desk, there was a hexagonal metal pile as thick as an arm extending from under the floor. , that is the so-called "check plug".
One of the six silver-white facades of the inspection plug was obviously blackened. Cohen carefully put his hand on it and immediately felt a burst of heat.
He glanced at the node position represented by the blackened facade, waved his hand and shouted: "The nodes in the third or fourth ring of Area 6 are burned, and the other nodes seem to be fine."
"Shield that node first and fix it after the work is over," Rebecca in the center of the laboratory gave the order, "Also, I just heard someone say that someone is using a heating pad in the laboratory. Cooking noodles? Has anyone really done this?"
The laboratory suddenly became quiet...
Cohen also shrank his neck subconsciously, but he didn't use the experimental bench. He had cooked something on his heating pad, but he had baked bread...
But at this moment, the corner of his eye suddenly glanced at the piece of wood that was black and heated due to the surge of arcane energy. inspection plug.
After the surging arcane energy recedes, the changed mithril coating on the inspection plug is gradually returning to its original state...
One of the characteristics of mithril is that it absorbs arcane energy. Magic energy will be accumulated in the process, and the appearance will not change during this process; after the external arcane energy disappears, the magic power will be quickly released. During this process, the mithril will heat up and change color...
From Wang The young magician of the city fell into deep contemplation...
North of the main city of Cecil, at the Whitewater River dock, a cargo ship with the mark of the Cecil Chamber of Commerce was under the command of the dock personnel. He slowly leaned on the case.
The cargo ship’s gangplank was set up on the trestle, and the captain stepped down and started handing over to the staff on the dock., and leaving the cargo ship with the captain, there was also a sturdy figure and a dozen civilians from other places in shabby clothes.
“Have you formed a group of immigrants?” The management staff at the pier saw those people walking off the gangplank and turned to the captain and said, “Don’t forget to register, otherwise these immigrants will not be able to leave the trestle area. "
"I am not responsible for these immigrants," the captain waved his hand, pointing to the extraordinarily strong figure, "They were brought by the Reverend Mr. Wright."
"Mr. Wright?" The dock manager then saw that the man walking down the gangplank was actually the pastor on the territory - but the pastor was not wearing the iconic old pastor's robe at this moment, but was wearing a high-heeled shirt. He was wearing burlap and rags similar to those of a poor man, so he didn't recognize him for a moment. Now that he recognized him, he immediately ran forward, "Mr. Wright! Didn't you go back to the Holy Spirit Plain? Why did you come back so soon?"
"I have seen what I want to see, so naturally I have to go back to where I should go," Wright Aviken smiled gently and pointed at the immigrants he brought behind him, " These people are the victims I helped on the road. They are all people persecuted by the Holy Light Church. The lord said that they will be accepted."
"The church persecutes... Oh, okay, I'll do it. Arrange registration," the dock manager did not expect that the only priest in the territory would come back so soon, nor did he expect that the Holy Light priest would actually lead a team to bring back more than a dozen people who were persecuted by the Holy Light Church. This is quite a lot of information. The big fact made him stupefied for a moment before he could react, and then he noticed that there seemed to be some faint blood stains on Wright's clothes, "Mr. Wright, this is on your body..."
Wright looked down. He glanced at the marks on his clothes that had not been cleaned, and shook his head helplessly: "It got on when I was trying to reason with people."
The dock manager breathed a sigh of relief: "Oh, that's okay. , I thought you were trying to reason with the bear again - everyone has had enough bear meat."
(I recommended the book, the title is "Hogwarts on the Bite of the Tongue", Judging from the name, you can tell that it is a very imaginative book... In a word, as long as the heart is big enough, there are ingredients everywhere. It seems to be a relaxing and imaginative book. This is also a friendly army, and it should also be a milk book.
