Sword of Daybreaker

Hetty’s explanation is unclear, but Gawain guessed the role of the device from the words. He was on the spot for a while, and there was an endless problem in his mind. – But before these problems filled his mind, Camel’s voice regained his attention.

The ancient Sorcerer was calmer than Hetty. He saw Gawain never commented and asked him: “Feudal Lord, do you have any questions about this device?”

“How are you… getting breakthrough?” Gawain looked towards Hetty, “I remember you and Rebecca studied for a long time, but there was no way to stabilize the mana divergence effect of Holm crystal – because it could not be stabilized Measure any parameters, so your research has been stuck for a long time.”

“This is an accident, ancestor, thank you Camel Master for coming. If you don’t have him, I am afraid we will have to stay in this bottleneck for a longer time,” Hetty said, calming down, with an uncontrollable smile, “I and Rebecca.” Camel Master was drawn to the test of how to excite the mana field more efficiently. His special life form is very sensitive to mana…”

“It’s really…sensitive,” Camel said. “I can sense the exact mana field change, and I can directly ‘see’ the response of this crystal after being stimulated by mana, especially after learning it. After the magical features, I have a huge interest in it…”

Gawain quickly figured out how Camel was involved in Hetty’s experiment, and how they matched the breakthrough in the precise control of the crystal, and all this made Gawain have to sigh: Camel Bringing it out of the rebellious fortress is definitely one of the most sensible decisions he has made in his life.

“I used the rune design ideas of the Gondor period – of course, these forms have changed a lot, thanks to the help of two young ladies, Jenny and Rebecca, who would like to rearrange these runes in the traditional way without them. It’s an unimaginable big project,” Camel pointed at the rune and nicks on the metal structure of the magic guide, sighing from the lungs. “I also have to thank my mutant body for letting me never think about it. The way to interfere with the flow of mana. The device in front of you is already a mature sample. After my initial tests, it can be operated for a long time under stable and controllable conditions.”

Gawain has no nonsense: “Demonstration.”

“Very happy,” Camel said, then he floated beside the magical device and injected his mana into the base of the magical device—because the device is not currently connected to the magic circuit of the Federal Mansion, Camel I acted as an energy source myself.

After the mana injection, Gawain saw a scene that made her life unforgettable –

The magic device emits a slight humming sound, and the crystal structure of the main body is quickly illuminated. A large number of blue rays of light appear on the surface of the crystal, and begin to change as if breathing, and the metal base and top of the device The cover also began to tremble at the same time. With the “咔哒” a light sound, the fixed buckles in the device automatically bounced off, and then the top cover above it and the Holm crystal as the main body were separated from the base by the mana. Start to rise slowly!

The entire unit that was originally connected together eventually became three separate parts. The base was firmly fixed to the ground, and the main crystal and the upper top cover floated in the air, and the mana surged to make people Intoxicating light blue radiance.

The stable, continuous mana field is centered on this device and quickly spreads into the surrounding space.

Waiting for Gawain to open his mouth, Hetty has picked up another device from the table: the device is a simple metal tray with a thumb-sized Holm crystal in the center of the tray, and on the card slot next to the tray, A piece of depleted magic storage crystal is fixed.

As the Holm crystal on the tray and the magical device in the center of the study emit a synchronized glow, Gawain sees that the magic storage crystal surface also shimmers with a light blue glow, and the entire crystal brightens at a rate visible to the naked eye. .

This is a receiving device while it is giving crystal charge!

Gawain suppressed the excitement and excitement in his heart and quickly asked: “How effective is it?”

“This experimental installation can cover the mana field to the entire block – in fact its mana field coverage will be even larger, but after a distance of more than three hundred meters, the mana field strength will decay rapidly. Almost no valid mana output can be provided outside the scope.”

“What about the bearing? For example, if there is a large number of magic machinery running at the same time in this range, can this crystal hold on? If it can’t stop, what security measures does it have to prevent accidents?”

“I have considered this problem. This experimental crystal can theoretically support hundreds of the largest current magic engines running at the same time. This value will definitely be higher after the later improvements, but if the mana consumption in the range is really high. Exceeding the limit of the crystal, then the floating limiter will play a role in the flow – its floating effect is maintained by a suspension formation embedded in the black stone matrix, once the range appears too strong Mana surge, the fragile black stone will rupture immediately, the limiter will fall to the crystal, the contact will form a rune trigger circuit, change the connection of these rune on the crystal surface, so that its output power is forced to reduce – If this still does not relieve the pressure on the crystal, then the second limiter on the base will self-melt afterwards, allowing the crystal to fall back into the pedestal and completely cut off the external output. However, the base is completely scrapped. Must be replaced in order to be re-enabled…but it is better than losing the crystal body or generating waste energy The explosion is strong.”

Gawain stared blankly at the small metal structure floating above the crystal: “Is this the 1st Level limiter… Are you using Blackstone in the limiter? Is this the idea of ​​’safe media’ in the magic circuit?”

“Yes, I refer to the ‘insurance’ device you designed in the magic circuit,” Camel admitted with a little embarrassment, and then some sighed, “This is really worth thinking about and learning. The poor quality material also has it. The use of it, as long as it is used properly, its fragility is itself a value…”

“As far as I know, the security devices that people set up in magical facilities during the Gondor period usually put a saturated charge crystal on the breakpoint and use it to blow up the out-of-control formation unit… The idea of ​​’fuse’ is the same. The cost can be between difference between Heaven and Earth.”

Camel sighed: “After all, mana was worthless in that era, and the charge crystal was too much.”

Gawain also sighed, but after sighing, he was more pleased to see the crystal device still in operation. Since Camel did not stop supplying it, the device still steadily floats in the air and continues. The ground releases energy.

A problem that magic circuit has always faced has finally been solved.

That is the transmission of energy, or the “wiring” problem.

Mana is a very special kind of energy. Although it is becoming the foundation of Cecil’s industrialization, it has a very different nature from the “electricity” that acts as an industrial foundation in Earth: this energy cannot be transmitted by “wires”.

Mana can only be passed through rune, through the rune formation of each and everyone connected to conduct, the traditional so-called “magical material” is actually just shaped into a unit in the magic formation, so that it conducts mana, There is no way to transfer the magical material into a filament, and you can transfer the mana to a distant place. Before Hetty and Camel’s device appeared, the only way to transfer the mana to a distant place was to put the magic circuit unit old. Go all the way through the road.

what does this mean? This means that if you want to transfer mana to every corner of a place, you have to fill the magic circuit in every corner! At the very least, make sure that there are at least “one column” of magic circuit units in the mana transmission.

Even if the cost of each “honeycomb unit” is low, it also requires an astounding resource. A piece of rune substrate is arranged in the past, which is much more expensive than pulling the same metal into a filament.

What’s more, after the emergence of more and more high-rise buildings on the Feudal Territory, the mana supply will also encounter the problem of height difference. It is even more unrealistic to simply lay the magic circuit to transmit the mana – not only the magic formation Ground, you have to use the magic formation paste wall, even if Gawain turned his head and shaved Charlie I’s grave, it is not expensive!

Gawain did tell Rebecca that he wanted to spread the magic circuit across the world, but he didn’t want to do it…

Of course, due to the fugitive nature of mana, even without direct physical contact, the magic circuit unit can provide energy to a certain range of items, but the distance is actually small. Poor: a single magic circuit unit can only emit mana. Centimeter, and even the factory-level magic circuit, the distance around the “蹭” is only a few meters… no practical significance.

But with this device in front, mana’s transmission bottleneck is finally broken through.

Cheap, convenient, mana technology can be transmitted without the need to spread the magic circuit all the way, just in front of Gawain.

After a long time, he regained his eyes, looked towards Hetty and Camel standing beside him: “What is the name of this device?”

“There is no name yet,” Hetty shook his head slightly. “This test device was just made by Camel – I only knew the news when I returned to the lab and I brought it directly to you.”

Having said that, she was a little embarrassed to bow her head: “I know this is not very rigorous… This kind of thing should be tested more, and I will report it to you with more detailed data, but I can’t help but want to This good news tells you that you want to show off to you…”

“It doesn’t matter, I understand your excitement,” Gawain smiled and waved. Hetty looked like a mature and steady person, but in front of Gawain, she would accidentally reveal such a childish side, which is also a personal feature. “Since it doesn’t have a name yet, it’s called… magic energy obelisk, the obelisk that transmits magical energy, easy to understand, how?”

“Ah, it’s a good name,” Camel admired the name, and the brightness of the whole person increased a few points. Then he gradually stopped the energy injection of the magic energy obelisk, allowing the various components of the device to fall back and combine. Together, “I will complete the remaining test items for it as soon as I go back, and I will hand over the information to the Mechanical Research Institute and let Mr. Egg arrange the production.”

“Very good,” Gawain praised nodded, and was pleased to see that Camel had adapted to the rules of the Feidal Territory in such a short period of time, and the relationship with Nicholas Egg seemed pretty good, then he took a deep breath. Exhale slowly, “But when you are immersed in joy, let us not forget to think about some issues.”

Hetty is puzzled: “Thinking about some issues?”

“How many more questions,” Gawain looked at the magic energy obelisk that had stopped working. He said without hesitation, “Have you ever thought about why mana can remotely, without rune contact, Spreading steadily? Why can’t it escape from the magic circuit? Why is there a mana everywhere in the natural environment, but only the mana extracted by the magic circuit and released by the magic energy obelisk can be used? Extending from these problems, what is the nature of mana? How does the mana in nature change after entering the magic circuit? These are all problems.”

Looking at Camel and Hetty’s confused expression, Gawain paused, continue: “And in addition to these long-term thinking issues, we can also think about it – this mana that can be transmitted remotely, in addition to transmitting energy What else can I do?”
