"Crack!"
The key is inserted into the keyhole and makes a crisp sound.
"Kaka..."
The key turned, causing many rusty machines to rotate together, making a permeating sound.
"Squeak—"
Finally, under the linkage of rusty machinery, a simple iron door slowly opened, revealing a secret room inside.
"Ta-ta-ta..."
Richard stepped into the secret room, and with a bang, the iron door quickly closed behind him, leaving not even a single gap.
Richard was not surprised by this and looked at the entire secret room with squinted eyes.
You can see that the entire secret room covers an area of about 300 square meters. There are stones with lighting spells engraved on the walls, exuding brilliance and paying attention to illuminating every corner.
There are dozens of tall metal shelves standing in the middle of the secret room, and there are many iron chains hanging from each metal shelf. There was a metal box tied to the end of the chain. It was square and extremely strong, and it was difficult to break it with external force. This made Richard couldn't help but recall that there seemed to be such a metal box outside the "Chapter of Monroe". Box protected.
When you get closer, you can see that there are special magic patterns on the surface of each metal box. Free energy elements must be injected to activate the magic patterns. Open the box and take out the precious information contained inside to read - this is always a relatively high-end preservation method.
And this is the secret library in the dark gathering place of the jungle hut.
It is different from the public library managed by the wizard Teddy. The public library contains information that does not need to be kept confidential and can be accessed by most wizards and even apprentices. The secret library has a very high level of confidentiality and stores secret information about the entire gathering place and the entire jungle hut, as well as very profound spell scrolls.
Not to mention ordinary wizards, even core wizards must apply to enter. The small request that Richard made to Eva before was to enter this secret library and check out some information.
After getting Eva's permission, Richard appeared here.
Looking at the numerous metal racks and the iron boxes hanging on the metal racks, Richard felt a little emotional.
I remember that at the beginning, he tried many methods but could not crack the metal box outside "The Monroe Chapter". It was not until the fire snake was hunted and the oil containing "magic power" was extracted from the snake's body that it was considered successful.
Now you don't have to go to such trouble. If you want to open the iron box and inject free energy elements, it is simple and efficient. This can be regarded as progress in the two years since leaving the Blue Lion Kingdom.
With this thought in mind, Richard walked to a metal frame, glanced at the words on the metal box, stretched out his hand and pressed it on the surface, quickly injecting free energy elements.
With a "click" sound, the metal box opened, revealing a relatively well-preserved scroll inside - the lifetime notes of Artis, the founder of Jungle Lodge.
The purpose of his coming to the library was to read Attis's notes and try to learn more about the "World-Destroying Gloves".
After all, he is now at an impasse in his research on the "Glove of Destruction". After producing the "Finger of Death", he has been unable to make further progress for a long time and needs to obtain more knowledge before he can break through.
Although he didn't think that the required knowledge would definitely be available here, there was no harm in giving it a try.
With this in mind, Richard browsed quickly.
"Shuashushu..."
Almost at the speed of a glance, I quickly browsed through the entire notebook, rubbed it under the sun and recalled it. I didn't find any knowledge related to the "World-Destroying Gloves", so I put it back into the iron box decisively. Then he opened another iron box next to it and took out another scroll to browse - there were many manuscripts of Atis during his lifetime. Except for those buried with him in the holy land, most of them were kept in a gathering place of more than a dozen jungle huts. Just the notebooks in the dark forest gathering place are enough to browse for a long time.
Next, Richard was in the secret library, browsing, browsing, browsing.
During the browsing process, Richard wanted to put all the scrolls into the Garden of Eden more than once. After reading them once, he would put them all back. This would be more efficient. But he also knew that this was impossible.
Because in this secret library, every scroll has a hidden magic mark on it, and the metal box where the data is stored also has a magic mark on the prophecy spell.
Normally, there is nothing. Once the data leaves the metal box for a certain distance, the metal box will send out a warning, notifying the manager of the secret library that this is Eva, and it will be difficult to explain at that time.
This is a very effective anti-theft method. Compared with the anti-theft methods used in the Baishi City Underground Market and Taboo Bookstore, it is much stronger.
In fact, it is said that some wizard organizations use more powerful anti-theft methods: under the influence of prophecy spells, once the data is stolen or even spied on, the data will be automatically destroyed, completely preventing data leakage.
In this regard, Richard didn't want to spend a lot of time cracking the anti-theft mechanism in order to read some information that he had permission to read. It was thankless, so he could only keep browsing while tutting his lips.
…
A few days later.
Richard browsed through all the necessary scrolls, left the secret library, returned directly to his residence, and then entered the Garden of Eden.
In the Garden of Eden.
Richard strode into the main laboratory.
As soon as he entered the door, he took out a long scroll from a bookshelf on the wall with a "swipe" sound, then placed it on the experimental table, and unfolded it with a "clatter" sound.
"Pop!"
Pressing his hands on the surface of the experimental table, Richard bent his upper half of his body completely and stared at the content on the scroll without blinking.
The content on the scroll is the structural diagram of the "World-Destroying Glove" that was previously created, including the main body of the "World-Destroying Glove", the spell chip and the connecting magic pattern. In the past few days of browsing, Richard found a lot of knowledge about the "World-Destroying Gloves" from the notes written by Artis during his lifetime, and he had new ideas for making the "World-Destroying Gloves". At this time, looking at the structural diagram, my brain was spinning and thinking rapidly.
After a long time, Richard straightened his body, took a long breath, and said slowly: "Sure enough, there was a problem with the previous design. Under the premise that the magic patterns were in conflict, just letting one finger work was enough to hold up the sky, and the rest The mobile phone can only be used as a decoration, let alone the full function of the gloves. In this case, it must be modified. First of all, the main body of the gloves needs to be modified, several spell chips need to be modified, and the connection magic patterns must also be modified. Revise… "
After speaking, without hesitation, Richard quickly jumped into action.
…
Next, for many days, Richard stayed in the Garden of Eden, busy with a lot of things, such as: configuring special alloys, making new glove bodies, modifying drawings, modifying photolithography templates, remaking spell chips, and installing components. , connecting the depiction of magic patterns...
After finishing all this, Richard got a new version of the "World-Destroying Gloves".
The main body of the alloy glove is made of a variety of elements, with a silvery cold light on the surface. The joints have been specially treated to allow free movement. Therefore, it will not affect daily life and combat if it is always worn on the hand. Of course, whether it can tolerate the weird looks from others is another matter.
In addition, the newly designed spell chips are guaranteed to function more effectively, greatly reducing the conflict between spell chips and slightly increasing their power. Ideally, it would be able to produce 100% of the effect of the original "World-Destroying Gloves".
Of course, we still need to test it to know how much it will work.
Machining Sector, Research Laboratory.
Richard slowly took off the finished "World-Destroying Glove" from the operating table, stretched out his hand, and put it on with a "click".
He simply moved his fingers and made a "click" sound. Without wasting time, he walked out of the door and walked to the spell testing ground.
