In the blink of an eye, many days passed.
During these days, Baishi City has been shrouded in a tense and gloomy atmosphere. Wizard-level battles will break out at an uncertain time and place. Sneak attacks, ambushes, and counter-ambushes emerge one after another, making the entire White Rock City look like a battlefield.
Ordinary people are walking on the road in Baishi City. As soon as they take a step, a huge explosion may occur from under their feet or beside them, shattering their bodies and leaving no bones left. This has caused many ordinary people in Baishi City to feel panicked. They usually don't go out because they don't have anything urgent to do, and the streets are extremely cold.
Some people even started to pack their bags and flee White Rock City with their families to join relatives in other places.
Richard didn't have much feelings about this, but silently accelerated the progress of some of his research.
…
Many divas.
The world inside the box, the main laboratory.
Several incandescent lamps were on in the laboratory, dispelling all darkness and making it look like day.
At this time, Richard stood in front of the ring-shaped experimental table in the middle of the laboratory. He reached out and carefully picked up a beaker from the experimental table. He looked at a small pile of white crystals at the bottom that looked like salt blocks. His eyes flashed, and then Take a long breath.
"call-"
The tired look on Richard's face due to long hours of hard work softened. A faint light shone in the depths of his eyes and he said, "It seems like it was a success. Well, it was a success. It wasn't easy..."
It's really not easy.
The reason why I say this is because the crystals in the beaker look like salt. In a sense, they are indeed salt, but they are not the common table salt (sodium chloride, NaCl) in daily life.
Its name is...
Pentazole anion salt!
right.
Pentazoles... anions... salts!
The weird and tongue-in-cheek name represents one thing - it is not an ordinary substance, not a substance that can be easily obtained.
Its existence, in a sense, represents the cutting-edge level of the entire world in a certain field.
And this so-called "certain field" is generally speaking in the military field, but more specifically in the field of explosives.
Pentazole anion salt is an explosive, an extremely advanced explosive, and a high explosive containing extremely high-tech levels.
The main reason why this substance was produced was that Richard had an idea:
Since leaving the Blue Lion Kingdom, he has been researching and working hard to explore the wizarding world using scientific methods, and the gains are not small.
Not to mention the built-up magic knowledge system, just in terms of physical combat prowess, he is no less than an ordinary wizard. If there are some preparations, the second-level wizard can also kill under certain risks. The second death of Solmen before was an example.
However, it would be very difficult to face level 2 wizards and above, as well as more powerful characters. However, if he is given enough time to prepare and can make full use of his home field advantage, he will be confident in killing even a third-level wizard who is really stronger than a second-level wizard.
After all, the human body is fragile. Bacterial biological warfare agents, viral biological warfare agents, rickettsial biological warfare agents, chlamydial biological warfare agents, toxin biological warfare agents, and fungal biological warfare agents. There is always one that can Take effect.
Even if a wizard can defend against smallpox, cholera, and anthrax, he can't still defend against all poisonous substances such as botulinum toxin and Ebola virus, right
As long as the essence of a wizard, as a carbon-based life, as a mammal, does not change, then he must surrender under the rules of science.
If it doesn't work, creating a powerful explosion, creating an ultra-high radiation field, or even a nuclear explosion can always kill it. When these methods are actually implemented, it is not technically as difficult as imagined. The only limitation is the materials.
In short, in Richard's view, his combat strength is not a definite value, but a range. This range starts from the first level wizard and reaches the third level wizard and above. What the limit is is impossible to estimate.
It seems that he is very powerful, but from another perspective, his strength is very unstable.
Prepare him, and he won't even be afraid of third-level wizards, but without preparation, in a hurry, he may face a few ambushed first-level wizards with hatred. It was because of unpreparedness that after encountering a powerful man in blue at the residence of the great scholar Suratis, he released a spell barrage and then gave up without further entanglement.
So: the ceiling of his combat effectiveness is high, non-existent, but the floor is very low.
According to the bucket theory, determining how much water a bucket can hold does not depend on the highest board, but on the lowest board. What determines a person's overall strength is not the strongest point, but the unavoidable weaknesses.
Now he was in the shadows, safe. But once the mysterious organization behind Solmen and Mu Keni notices him and targets him, then maybe a few first-level wizards will kill him. He would never forget that the dragon Gregory was so powerful back then, but he was killed in a targeted manner by Solmen, a wizard he had killed twice.
To defeat someone, you don't need to be stronger than the opponent in every direction. You just need to be stronger than the opponent in one aspect and then take advantage of it in a specific environment.
In order to prevent him from being defeated like this, he must raise the lower limit of his combat power.
Therefore, he planned to summarize what he had learned during this period of research in the wizarding world and monetize his knowledge.
Turn theoretical knowledge into real combat effectiveness.
So what to do
Putting aside the props that cannot be copied, his current strongest spell attack methods are two: using extremely complex magic patterns to inscribe and release a spell on an enlarged crystal plate - Meteor Pyroblast; which requires a long time in the early stage. It takes time to "accumulate" and prepare, which consumes a lot of brain calculation power, mental power and free energy elements to release a real and genuine spell barrage.
And these two spells have one thing in common, that is...explosion-explosion!
This is because explosions are the most efficient way of bursting out energy and can cause the greatest damage in the shortest time.
Therefore, when consuming the same amount of mana, fire spells are often more powerful than other energy evocation spells.
Richard thought, could the intensity of the explosion be increased, could the explosion be more powerful
And if you want to do this, if you want to strengthen the explosion in a scientific way, you must understand one thing - the essence of the explosion - dynamite.
Without explosives, there is no powerful explosion—at least not when it comes to chemical explosions.
What exactly is dynamite
Generally speaking, an explosive is a substance that burns or decomposes very quickly. Explosives are highly adaptable to the environment. Generally speaking, regardless of whether they are sealed or not, the amount of explosives, or even in the case of zero oxygen supply, as long as there is strong energy to stimulate them, the explosives will perform detonation work on the outside world and release It emits a large amount of heat energy and produces high-temperature and high-pressure gas, causing powerful destructive power.
The power of explosives ranges from strong to weak. The weakest explosive is undoubtedly the black powder invented in ancient China for the first time in the history of the earth. The most powerful explosives are... in constant change, with the advancement of science and technology, they are constantly updated.
To evaluate the power of explosives, there are two key indicators: detonation heat and detonation speed.
Explosion heat refers to the amount of energy released in the detonation. The larger the number, the greater the power.
Explosion velocity can be regarded as the speed of explosion propagation. The greater the explosion velocity number, the greater the amount of explosives exploded per unit time and the stronger the destructive power.
Generally speaking, black powder, the first-generation explosive product made of monosulfur (sulfur) dinitrate (potassium nitrate) and tricarbon (charcoal), is not very powerful. Regardless of the explosion heat, it only has an explosion speed of 500 meters/second. , there are too many limitations and it is difficult to be widely used. After that, the power of explosives continued to increase, and it gradually developed.
For example, mercury fulminate, invented by Edward Charles Howard, is made from mercury and nitric acid. It has a detonation heat of 1486 kJ/kg and a detonation velocity of 5400 m/s. It ranks among the ranks of modern explosives and can be widely used. It is mostly used for detonation. Medication.
For example, guncotton, also known as nitrocellulose, is made simply from acid and cotton. It has an explosion heat of 4053 kilojoules/kg and an explosion speed of 6300 meters/second. It is several times more powerful than black powder.
For example, TNT, also known as "2,4,6-trinitrotoluene", was invented by J. Wilbrand and is the most famous because it does not react chemically with metals or absorb moisture and can be stored for many years. And there are very few effects of friction and vibration. Unless a detonator is used, it will be difficult to explode even if it is shot.
TNT is very stable in nature, so it is the most widely used explosive on the modern earth. When calculating a powerful explosion, it is converted into the mass of TNT.
The detonation heat of TNT is 4200 kJ/kg, and the detonation velocity is 6900 m/s. The data is very good, and it is cheap to make. It can be called the explosive with the best comprehensive performance on the modern earth.
However, TNT is the explosive with the best overall performance, but it is not the most powerful explosive.
There are many explosives that exceed the power of TNT, such as liquid oxygen explosives, picric acid, C4 explosives, nitroglycerine, Dana explosives, etc. - each one is stronger than the last.
And among these many explosives, there is a stronger one, and its name is... RDX.
Hexogen, scientific name is cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine, code name RDX. It was originally intended to be used in medicine and later used in explosives. The explosion heat is 5400 kJ/kg, and the explosion velocity is 8750 meters/second.
On top of RDX, it’s too safe.
Tai'an, ΤЭН, scientific name is pentaerythritol tetranitrate, code name is PETN, used in medicine and later in explosives. The explosion heat is 5895 kJ/kg, and the explosion velocity is 8300 m/s.
Above Tai'an, Octo is here.
Octagon, scientific name is cyclotetramethylenetetranitramine, code HMX, explosion heat 5673 kJ/kg, explosion velocity 9110 m/s.
RDX, Tai'an, and Octogen are considered the three kings of explosives. They are far more than ordinary explosives. Because of their high cost, they are generally not used in ordinary ammunition—that is a huge waste. More It is a component of high-power missile warheads, detonating charges of nuclear weapons, or solid rocket propellants.
Even so, these three kings are not the most powerful in the world of explosives.
Technology never ends. After them, CL-20 (hexanitrohexaazaisowurtzitane), DNAF (4,4'-dinitro-3,3'-azofurazan oxide), etc. appeared. The monster's explosive speed reaches 10,000 meters per second.
Above the monsters, there are even more terrifying beasts.
The name of the vicious beast is... pentazole anion salt!
Pentazole anion salt is a step for China to return to the top in the field of explosives on modern earth - before this, high-end explosives such as RDX, Tai'an, and Octogen were all invented by other countries on the earth. China and Enter. Pentazole anionic salt was the first breakthrough and successful invention made by China. After more than a thousand years, China has returned to its peak position when it invented black gunpowder.
Pentazole anion salt is a high-energy azide radical substance, and explosives made from high-energy azide radical substances are generally called salt explosives.
The reason for this name is that only a small particle of this substance, less than 0.1 grams, is enough to blow up a laboratory fume hood.
According to theory, the pentazole anion salt is the highest level of high-energy azide substance limited by technology. It is called N10. It is the strongest explosive that can be produced, far exceeding any known energetic material on the earth. In the field of chemical explosions the pinnacle of.
Explosive heat... The explosive heat of the pentazole anion no longer makes much sense, because it can reach 14000 m/s - more than 40 times the speed of sound just by exploding, and the explosion pressure generated by the explosion will reach 60-90GPa, which is nearly Millions of atmospheric pressures. No matter how hard something is, under its power, it will become as fragile as a piece of paper and then turn into ashes.
This is the pentazole anion salt!
"Click!"
Richard gently picked up a particle of "pentazole anion salt" with tweezers and squinted at it.
The stability of "pentazole anion salt" is not weak, and it is not as dangerous as nitroglycerin. Even if it is not as good as TNT, its decomposition temperature is as high as 116.8°C, and it is difficult to excite at room temperature.
The reason why Richard was cautious was because what he made was not actually a "pentazole anion salt" in the true sense, but an analogue of a "pentazole anion salt".
This was mainly due to the limited technological level of the laboratory. He used many alternative methods and relied on some magic patterns and spells to create the product with difficulty. It may be very similar to "pentazolium anion salt" and has almost the same functions and properties, but there are still some differences.
He planned to call this analog... magic salt.
Well, spell salt.
Before he understood all the properties of magic salt, he thought it would be better to operate with caution.
After carefully observing the spell salt for a long time, Richard already had a perfect idea in his mind, which was to try to combine this spell salt with some of the spells he knew to exert the dual power of spells and spell salt.
In this way, he can ensure that he will have a huge advantage when facing ordinary wizards and achieve the goals he wants to achieve.
Of course, how much the target can be achieved needs to be tested in practice.
"call-"
Richard exhaled gently, put the magic salt particles picked up with tweezers, and gently put them back into the beaker. With a wave of his hand, he put all the magic salt into the space iron ring. He walked out of the main laboratory and walked towards the door. The magic testing ground.
