Richard was thinking very clearly. If he could study this knowledge point clearly, the benefits would be unimaginable!
Not to mention anything else, just the fact that it involves binding free energy elements through magic patterns and fusing them with ordinary materials to create special spell materials can already change the entire world.
After all, whether the world is advanced or not depends on science, and the performance of science lies in technology, and most technologies are limited by materials.
For example, nuclear weapons, the most terrifying weapons on earth, are essentially just a few pieces of uranium-235 stacked together.
But the problem of how to obtain high-concentration uranium-235 has stymied more than 90% of the countries on the planet. Without materials, they can only make nuclear weapons even if they want to.
To give another example, a major feature of the fifth-generation stealth fighters on Earth is that they can become invisible. To achieve this, in the final analysis, it relies on one or more materials that can significantly reduce the radar detection rate.
Only a few countries can produce this material, and the rest can only continue to think about it.
The third example is that superconducting materials can reduce resistance to zero. If superconducting materials are used on a large scale, power loss can be minimized and the world's electricity can be liberated.
The use of superconducting materials on the earth has very harsh conditions. Most of them can achieve superconducting effects at more than minus 200 degrees Celsius, so they are called low-temperature superconducting materials - they can achieve superconducting effects at minus 196 degrees Celsius (liquid nitrogen temperature). Materials can be called high-temperature superconducting materials.
What if there are room temperature superconducting materials
It can directly cause changes in the entire earth's power system, but on earth, with existing technology, it is difficult or impossible to produce this kind of material.
It's like being in a colorless world of pure water, with no color visible.
But it's different now.
With science and magic patterns, there will be endless possibilities, and you can truly combine things from the two worlds.
Room temperature superconducting materials? It is indeed difficult to achieve on earth, but with the magic pattern effect, it is very possible to make it successfully.
Even more amazing materials can be produced:
For example, materials that are harder and lighter than carbon fiber can be used to make space elevators. Of course, they can also be called the Tower of Babel, or a more magical one - the Tower of Babel.
For example, materials with a melting point far exceeding that of tantalum-hafnium carbide alloy (the material with the highest melting point on earth, 3983°C) can be used to build solar ships and explore stars or the earth's core.
Another example is to combine the above two to create a special pair of powered metal mechas to replace the air armor produced through spells. After wearing it, you can deal with the enemy. Even if the opponent attacks for three rounds first, it may not be able to break through the defense.
If you can really master this technology, you can create an unparalleled empire of magic materials, a dreamland where towers are built on the tips of needles and castles are suspended in the sky.
"call-"
Thinking of this, Richard took a deep breath, his eyes flickered, and he suddenly felt that he might have a better idea of what the Black Spirit Empire was like in the past - after all, the knowledge he studied was left by the other party. His research, in a sense, is to restore the history of the Black Spirit Empire.
"A once-real empire of magic materials?" Richard narrowed his eyes and murmured, "How did such an empire suddenly perish? What was the real reason?"
Richard's eyes narrowed, and he felt that the more he learned, the more confused he became.
It seemed that the world and what was hidden behind the Black Spirit Empire were more complicated than he thought every time.
"Then let me figure it all out bit by bit, slowly." Richard said.
After saying this, Richard began to operate, starting many instruments in the research room with his hands and conducting various tests.
One of the most important instruments is the cutter. The end of the cutter's long mechanical arm does not have any special blade installed, but instead houses two currently idle space iron rings.
Utilizing the "absolute processing of spatial precision" and "absolute cutting of space scissors" of the iron ring, any object can be precision processed. The spatial storage function of the iron ring can even collect the cut debris during the processing. , clean and pollution-free.
"Shashasha..."
A subtle, undetectable rubbing sound sounded. Richard was processing and busy, preparing to produce a relatively special spell material that had a special effect on gases.
This material has a small amount of records in the island treasures. If it is successfully produced, it has many uses.
Richard processed for a while, then remembered something, walked to the corner, opened the wooden box he got from the auction, took out the colored paintings, and put them on the table.
"thorn-thorn-"
Richard carefully tore off the drawing paper, rolled it up and put it aside, then walked out with the heavy frame. The picture frame is thrown into a pool for acid hydrolysis, and then a necessary substance—the metal rhodium—is extracted from it.
Yes, the metal rhodium.
Rhodium metal is a member of the platinum group of metals. Its appearance is silver-white, with metallic luster, opaque, and relatively high density. When he saw the frame at the auction, he made some guesses about the material. He was not completely sure. He just narrowed it down to the entire platinum group metals and then bought it.
Now that the metal rhodium has been extracted, it is more in line with expectations. This kind of metal is a brittle metal and has many applications in electrical, instrumentation, high-temperature alloys and precision alloys. It should also have some effect on the spell materials he wants to make.
Of course, the specific situation needs to be tested slowly.
This test lasted for three full days.
…
Fast forward three days later.
In the research room, Richard bent over and stood in front of the wooden table in the corner, with his hands on his left side, staring at the open scroll on the table, and said to himself: "The general direction is correct, but the materials are still a bit question."
Turning his head, Richard looked at something placed on the wooden platform in the research institute. It was a silver-white cylinder with complicated magic patterns carved on its surface. It was one of the many failures in the past three days. In fact, it was very close to success. .
If the success is to make the water boil, the water is already half boiled. The problem is how to continue to heat the water until it boils, or try to reduce the air pressure so that the water boils automatically at low temperatures.
Withdrawing his gaze, Richard continued to mutter to himself solemnly: "It is right to use platinum group metals, but it should not be metal rhodium. Metal platinum is also excluded, so it can only be the other four members of the platinum group... such as metal osmium, Metal iridium, metal ruthenium and metal palladium. The most likely one should be metal palladium, after all... "
"But -" Richard breathed out and changed his tone, "Metal palladium is not very easy to get now. Even if it can be obtained, it will take a lot of time. In this case... I can only go and see if that person has it. Ready in stock.”
