Release that Witch

220. Chapter 220 Decomposition and Reduction

    Roland had a variety of test props on the office floor early in the morning.

    From solids to liquids, minerals to ingots, inorganics to organics.

    “You look very happy.”Nightingale crouched down and pinched the small soup bag from the plate and threw it into his mouth.

    “Of course, there is another new witch in the small town, and her ability is so incredible,” Roland raised an eyebrow. “In addition, don’t think I didn’t see it. You just stole the guinea pig?”

    “There are a few more,” she wiped her mouth. “Is Lucia’s ability useful?”

    “The use is enormous, whether it is decomposition or reduction, it can make great progress in smelting and manufacturing.”Roland said with excitement, “With Anna, you can increase the strength of the machine several times. Even if you don’t have energy, just make a few masters by hand. It is definitely a qualitative improvement for the production level of small town.”

    Now the machine tool used in the Greycastle Industrial Company’s factory is exactly finished by Anna. Although it is extremely accurate at the beginning, it is limited to the defects of the material itself. The wear and deformation of the machine tool is becoming more and more obvious during the production process, and the tool is broken and broken. Cracking is a common phenomenon. These machine tools can only be used for a maximum of one or two years without the addition of Anna’s maintenance parts.

    Lucia’s capabilities make it possible to precisely control the composition of materials. Machine tools made of high-strength cast iron, steel, and even alloys not only increase service life, but also improve machining efficiency and machining levels. For example, revolver, something that can only be produced by Anna for a while, can also enter the sequence of mass production.

    “Do I?”Nightingale jumped back to the table. “But she doesn’t seem to think so.”

    “Because she hasn’t really realized the value of her abilities, it’s the same as Mystery Moon.”Roland didn’t take it. “If Lucia can read through the «Theoretical Foundations of Natural Science», I won’t have this idea anymore.”

“……”Nightingale silently stuffed two dred fish into his mouth.

    When Lucia finished her breakfast and came to the office, the proficiency test officially began.

    Roland looked forward with anticipation to turn a test piece into a pile or a few piles of different substances – iron ingots and iron ore turned into silvery white particles. If you look closely, you can find some on the side. Mottled powder. The grapes and steaks did not change, and the steamed dumpling turned into water, meat and flour.

    When she turned to half, she suddenly stopped, and some embarrassedly said: “I seem to…The magic power is exhausted. ”

    Roland looked at Nightingale, and the latter nodded. “The magic power stored in her body is very small. It looks like a smoky smog, but this color is the first time I see it.”

    “what colour?”

“……GrayShe told me:

    Roland returned to his desk and waved at Lucia. “Witch’s magic power is growing with age and training. You don’t have an adulthood yet. It’s great to be able to do this.”When the little girl went to the table, he pushed the prepared parchment to the other side. “Since you decide to stay in Border Town, sign this contract.”

    Lucia looked down at the end of the contract and couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. “One month gold royal? Your Highness…Yes, but my ability has not tested Ah yet?
”

    “It’s not about your ability,” Roland smiled and shook his head. “As long as you are a member of Witch Union, this contract will last forever.”

    “Even if the power of the witch is useless?”She did not dare to ask.

    “You can understand this too,” the prince said. “But I believe that the power of any witch has its own unique use, but the discovery is different. So you don’t have to worry that you can’t use it. ”He is paused, “In addition, you should have heard the real reason for the magic power phagosome from other witches, so in order to ensure a smooth awakening day, you have to practice your abilities repeatedly every day. After dinner, Teacher Scroll will teach the witch in the living room, and you have to go to the lecture – although you have mastered the reading and writing, it is necessary to learn the elementary mathematics and nature basics. ”

    “Yes, Your Highness.”Lucia nodded hard.

    “You still have a sister, right?”Roland laughed. “When I was in class, let her take it with me. She also reached the age of education.”

    Lucia gave a slight glimpse, and the raised head confirmed that he was not joking, and happily walked into the court, “obey.”

    After the girl retire, Roland took the signed contract into the drawer and looked at the variety of test products on the ground.

    What was the outcome?Asked by Nightingale.

    “It’s amazing,” he picked up the plate with steamed dumpling and fiddled with the finely ground meat and flour. “Like this…When the flour is kneaded, the gluten contained will form a network structure, which makes the flour dough flexible and stretchable. Once cooked, the gluten of protein will be denatured by high temperatures, and even if it is powdered, it will irresively return to the delicate and smooth appearance. This shift is irreversible, but…”Roland picked up a small cluster of powder and spread it out in the palm of his hand, feeling smooth and smooth, like freshly ground flour. “She let the flour return to its original appearance.”

    “Hey, I don’t understand it,” Nightingale grinned. “But to say that her ability can be seen as a reducing substance?”

    “Not so,” Roland pointed to the iron ingot. “If it is just a reduction, the iron ingot should become iron ore, but in fact it is broken down into iron powder and other impurities.”

“……What is her ability? ”She is confused.

    “It’s not clear yet, but at least it can be speculated that perhaps her ability has both effects, and the specific form of that form depends on her knowledge.”

    (See识

    “The meat chops are not much different from iron ore in nature. They are made up of a variety of particles, but Lucia’s ability can only decompose iron ore, but not on the steak. I think it’s probably because she can’t understand the organics… …Or the composition of the living body. ”Roland explained that he is also not sure if this guess is correct, but there is no doubt that Lucia is the one who needs to learn additional knowledge as soon as possible.

*******************

    Three days later, when the second fleet carrying the eastern region refugees arrived in the small town, the same disease broke out on the ship, and this time it was even more serious, with almost half of the people infected. Roland learned by question that some patients developed dark spots on the first day after boarding, which means that they had been parasitic by the stranger earlier, and the incubation period was shortened accordingly.

    At the same time, Roland also received a letter from Kingdom Capital, which was marked with Margery Commerce.

    After reading the contents of the letter, his brow wrinkled.

    The evil epidemic is spreading in Kingdom Capital. The church claims that this is a plot of witch and tells the public that they have elixir that can fight the evil. There have also been a large number of infected people outside Kingdom Capital, and Tasa chose to temporarily suspend the delivery of refugees for security reasons.

    If the time is not estimated wrong, the first returning fleet will return to Kingdom Capital four days later, and take the small town to cure the plague, but those who have been infected may not have the opportunity to stay on the boat for nearly a week. The journey, and Church’s propaganda also made him smell a hint of conspiracy.

    After considering it over and over again, he decided to send a team to escort Lily to Kingdom Capital. Otherwise, Kingdom Capital and eastern region refugees will die in this man-made disaster, and survive to become Church’s devotees.

    Roland must avoid such situations as much as possible.
