After the familiar space was distorted, Yanis' figure was revealed, with a trace of confusion on her face.
"Mr. President, how do you know I'm here? I obviously haven't released the concealment technique yet."
"It's simple, because the familiar feeling when you were always by my side suddenly came back, so I knew you were back." Xu Yi replied with a smile.
"Familiar feeling?" Yanis looked puzzled. "What does that feel like?"
"I can't explain clearly. In short, if you are next to me, even if I can't see you, there will always be a strange feeling that lets me know that someone is around." Xu Yi explained.
"Then if another elf uses the invisible technique to be around you, wouldn't you be able to detect it?" Yanis asked.
"It's not the same." Xu Yi shook his head. "Perhaps it's because you've been with me for a long time. Even if you use the invisibility technique to hide next to me, I can still feel that it's you, but if it were another elf, I might not be able to detect it. Hard. If anything, maybe it’s because of the smell on your body that betrayed you?”
"Smell?" Yanis frowned slightly, lowered her head and sniffed her body. "It doesn't have any special taste."
Xu Yi had the urge to go over and smell it, but thinking that doing so would be too abrupt, he suppressed the urge, smiled, and changed the subject: "Okay, no more gossip. You are alone this time. How was the business trip?"
"Oh, I met Chief Shilui, Chief Mento, and the elders, and conveyed to them what you told them. Then they asked me to bring some things back to you."
Yanis took off the huge backpack she was carrying on her back and opened it to see a bunch of iron lumps of different colors inside.
Xu Yi was surprised: "You didn't run all the way from the Falling Rain Forest with so many things on your back?"
"Yes. What's wrong?" Yanis asked strangely.
Xu Yi was immediately speechless.
Such a big backpack. It is also filled with various iron lumps. The weight is over one hundred kilograms anyway.
However, Yanis ran for more than 200 kilometers from the Forest of Falling Rain with such a heavy backpack on her back. Should we say that the elves are extremely talented, or should we say that she is stupid
"Don't abuse yourself like this next time. I just asked you to bring back one or two of the samples that Chief Shilui said, but I didn't ask you to carry so many. Don't you find it too heavy?" Xu Yi shook his head.
"These are all samples." Yanis took out a stack of papers from the compartment in her backpack and handed it to Xu Yi. "This is the list given by Chief Shilui. He said that it marked the formula of each sample and the results of their preliminary tests. He asked me to show it to you."
"Are they all samples?" Xu Yi glanced at the backpack and thought that there were at least twenty kinds in it. Is it possible that the Norma tribe has developed so many new alloy steels in one go in the past few months?
If that were the case. The dwarves' talents in materials and craftsmanship are too terrifying.
However, after taking the list and reading it over, Xu Yi felt a little dumbfounded.
It turns out that these so-called samples were actually made by the Shilui clan leader who was inspired by the silver leaf steel and continuously added various strange ingredients to the molten iron during this period, including even cow dung powder. have.
It would be strange if the so-called alloy steel produced in this way can have any special effects.
However, after checking the experimental results, Xu Yi discovered that the twenty-three alloy steel samples brought over by Chief Shlubi actually had their own effects.
Apart from some characteristics such as "breaking into pieces with one knock" that made Xu Yi almost vomit blood, one of the alloy steels listed as "No. 17" by the Shilui clan leader actually performed extremely well in a series of experiments, reflecting the Excellent corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance.
Xu Yi was very satisfied that such an alloy steel with special properties could emerge from so many useless research results.
This kind of steel with high strength, corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance is widely used. If the characteristics of stainless steel can be added, countless new types of magic machines can be developed with this steel.
"Very good. Let me see, which No. 17 alloy steel is..." Xu Yi rummaged through his backpack and found an iron lump with the word No. 17 engraved on it.
This lump of dark red iron is extremely heavy to the touch, and its density is significantly higher than that of ordinary pig iron. It seems that after the dwarves added special ingredients to it, the internal structure of the entire steel has changed.
Xu Yi couldn't help but feel a trace of emotion in his heart.
Although Sainz Continent has much more technological discoveries than Earth, it can always find some advantages that are not found on Earth.
Take silver leaf steel as an example. It is not simple to make alloy steel with excellent properties like silver leaf steel on earth. However, on the Sainz continent, you only need to add ubiquitous alloy steel to the molten iron. Silver leaf grass powder can be achieved.
As for the current No. 17 alloy steel with corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance, according to the description on the list given by the Shilui clan leader, it is just produced by adding several common plant stem and leaf powders to the molten iron. Refined through some special process.
"What the hell is this principle?" As a rigorous-thinking engineering student, Xu Yi was really puzzled by this strange phenomenon.
But this is the reality, and Xu Yi finally had to explain that Sainz Continent and the earth are different after all.
Seeing that Xu Yi had read all the samples, Yanis reached into her arms, took out a small box, and handed it over.
"The elder asked me to bring this to you, saying it was a gift for you." Yanis said.
"Gift? What is it?" Xu Yi opened the box curiously and found that there was an exquisite little man model lying in the small wooden box.
This little man model has a crystal-clear body. Except for the bright golden color of his hair, the rest of the figure is basically a light milky white.
When Xu Yi touched it, he discovered that the little man model should be made of plastic.
However, what surprised him the most was that the carved little man was Steele!
Looking at this, it's only less than twenty centimeters tall. But it is carved extremely finely. Steele's face is perfectly presented. Xu Yi could not help but marvel at the model with every strand of hair visible, and praised: "It's so beautiful! If Steele sees it, he will definitely like it very much. Yanis, thank Elder Elusia for me, I am very satisfied with her gift.”
Yanis smiled sweetly: "The elder said that this is a gift for a friend, so you don't need to thank me. In addition, the elder also said that after seeing this gift, you should understand what she means."
Xu Yi glanced at the little man in his hand, rubbed it with his fingers, and nodded: "Yes, I understand."
Elder Elusia asked Yanis to bring this gift, undoubtedly to tell him that the Yege tribe's research on plastics had met Xu Yi's requirements.
Looking into the wooden box again, I found that in addition to the little man, there was also a piece of transparent, milky white, square plastic lying on the bottom of the wooden box.
Xu Yi picked up the piece of plastic. First, I brought my nose close and smelled it hard. Not only did I not smell the expected stench. Instead, I smelled a faint fragrance and couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction.
Then he put the plastic on the ground, picked up a sharp stone on the ground, and under Yanis's surprised gaze, he pointed the sharp corner of the stone at the plastic on the ground and smashed it hard.
"puff-"
The stone hit the plastic hard with a muffled sound.
Xu Yi took the stone away and took a closer look, only to find that there was only a very small dent on the surface of the plastic, and the rest of the plastic was not affected in any way.
"Very good. There are no problems with the smell, hardness and flexibility. The next step is the most important test."
Xu Yi picked up the plastic again and held it in the palm of his right hand. Magic power surged in his body. After a moment, a strong cold air came out from his right hand. In an instant, the surrounding air that seemed a little warm because of the entry of May turned into Extremely cold.
Level 6 water magic - Frozen Nova.
This is the first level six magic that Xu Yi has mastered not long ago.
Once the magic of Frozen Nova is cast, it can quickly cool down the surrounding air. Depending on the magician's magic power and mastery of this magic, the temperature lowered will be different.
It is said that if a magician casts this magic, it can even freeze a stone to pieces at its lowest point.
Although Xu Yi's magic was not so exaggerated, it was still able to quickly reduce the surrounding temperature to below zero.
After a moment, a small area of snow powder fell around Xu Yi's right hand, and the entire right hand became white and even somewhat transparent due to the effect of this magic.
Yanis looked at Xu Yi's right hand, her big eyes full of surprise.
Although she is currently majoring in some special elf magic and has not yet started learning elemental magic, she can certainly recognize that the magic Xu Yi is using is Frozen Nova.
After following Xu Yi for such a long time, she knew very well that Xu Yi was actually a magician with level 5 magic ability. His ability to use level 6 magic already surprised her, and what surprised her even more was that Xu Yi was able to maintain this magic for such a long time!
Although the scope of this magic was limited to Xu Yi's right hand, and the magic power consumed was greatly reduced, he was able to maintain it and maintained it for such a long time. In addition to proving that his mastery of this magic is far more sophisticated than ordinary magicians, it also proved that His magic power is probably no weaker than that of a sixth-level magician.
Yanis couldn't help but think of what Steele relayed about the great magician Camilla's evaluation of Xu Yi.
"If this boy concentrates on studying magic, he will probably become a powerful magician."
Thinking of this, Yanis couldn't help but feel a hint of regret in her eyes when she looked at Xu Yi.
After following Xu Yi for so long, she certainly knew very well that Xu Yi really loved the research on magical machinery.
Even though he would spend time studying magic, in Yanis' opinion, it was mostly to make it easier for him to study magic machines.
If he devotes all his time and energy to studying magic machines, then Yanis is sure that with his talent, he will definitely become a powerful magician.
Xu Yi on the side didn't pay attention to what Yanis was thinking, and still concentrated on observing the plastic block in his hand.
Seeing that the plastic block had not shown any signs of deformation over time, Xu Yi smiled with satisfaction.
After insisting on casting the Frozen Nova for a few more minutes, Xu Yi restrained his magic power and lifted the magic.
Due to the rapid temperature change on the surface of the plastic block, the newly formed layer of frost turned into water droplets, which then formed streams and slid down the smooth surface.
Xu Yi carefully observed the surface of the plastic block and found that the small pit he had made with a stone remained the same without any change.
"Great!" Xu Yi looked at the plastic block in his hand, showed a happy smile, turned to Yanis and said: "Yanis, haven't you been asking me what exactly you are interested in in the elves? Is it valuable? Let me tell you, just this piece of plastic contains infinite value!”
Yanis looked at the ordinary piece of resin in Xu Yi's hand and wondered.
It is obviously an ordinary resin that can be seen everywhere, why does the president think it is a treasure? (To be continued...)
