Opal, a silica gel gemstone, contains 5-10% water.
In the base of the Ministry of Magic under the night, in a standard suite bedroom in the dormitory building, Gu Jun was looking at a crystal and colorful opal in his hand.
There are two types of opals: color-changing and color-changing. This one is color-changing, oval, 4.5m long, 2.1m wide, and is produced in western Australia. This is what he specially ordered the people in the recreation department to pay attention to when buying, because he thought that "Wharton Town" still had another hint of meaning.
Since opal is amorphous, some structures will discolor or even crack due to lack of moisture, but if the structure is stable there will be no change.
This one is full of moisture, bright in color, and round in body, which he thinks roughly meets the requirements of the "Nakt Manuscript".
"Hmm." Gu Jun took this gem and sat down at the work table specially placed in the middle of the bedroom. There were some carving tools on the table, such as carving knives, electric drills, drill bits, grinding needles... like a hundred orthopedic surgery. treasure box.
And around the corners, he installed cameras himself, which will record his next situation.
In fact, Gu Jun didn't know what he was going to do, he only knew that he was going to carve an old seal on this opal.
But how to carve, and how it will be effective, he has no idea.
That is an old seal application technique recorded in that chapter "Nakt Codex". It is different from the big old seal stone, and its function is to "monitor reason".
Gu Jun understood it this way, because the content of the above text was too obscure, and he was only half guessing.
However, "rationality, rationality, rationality", he could see how much the civilization that created these technologies valued this. Reason is their highest essential, and knowledge and science are the only way they are willing to understand the universe.
So this tool for monitoring rationality, if you want to use a metaphor, may be like a human health watch to see how many steps you have taken.
"But this kind of gadget." Gu Jun thought about it, "If it can be manufactured, it will solve our big problem."
The painting on the "Nakt Manuscript" clearly shows the lines to be carved, but each line seems to contain the most superb mathematical laws. The strange precision even made him feel a kind of insignificance when looking up at the starry sky, which is definitely not a human being. Science that can be understood at this stage.
Just like primitive people don't understand what calculus is. Although he doesn't understand it very well, high math always gives him a headache.
"Try it." Gu Jun took a deep breath and picked up a carving knife. He felt quite comfortable using it for the first time, and his calm hand can also work here.
He had already ordered Cai Zixuan, who was staying with him, not to let anyone come in to disturb him until he went out.
Gu Jun closed his eyes, opened the "Nakt Manuscript" in his mind, and turned to the page about making "old seal ornaments", looking at those unimaginable lines, unspeakable patterns, and how to put them together. The combination of spiritual power and opal can regulate the water in the stone and reshape the structure...
Gradually, his mental strength became more focused, and he gradually developed a headache.
"Ugh..."
It seemed that many dreams came flooding in, replacing the darkness.
Gu Jun looked around, and found himself standing in the huge vaulted library again, but it was not the same place as last time, and there was no dark shadow from last time.
Those rows of huge bookshelves were far away. He was standing next to a wall, with a faint light shining through. He saw that the huge stone wall was full of carved lines, as if they were rubbed out with sandpaper. The scratches are densely layered and mottled, and are many times more complicated than the ones on the "Nakt Codex".
"These are... the technical principles of the monitoring stone..."
The more Gu Jun looked at it, the more he was shocked by a delicate and delicate force. Every straight line and curve on the wall seemed to be able to outline his soul.
He looked at these carved lines, and quickly put his mind into it, and he didn't feel any discomfort, so he forgot the time...
I don't know how long it has passed, when he slowly stretched out his right hand, wanting to touch the wall.
Suddenly, the illusion receded, and Gu Jun suddenly opened his eyes wide. The surroundings were no longer a grand library, but a spacious bedroom in the dormitory.
It's just that the sky outside the window has become brighter, and the clock shows that it is past six in the morning, and the night has passed.
"Ah..." Gu Jun took a deep breath, as if he had reconnected his body, and then a surge of extreme fatigue came over him, causing him to almost fall headfirst onto the work table. Especially the two arms, which are so sore that they seem to be broken...
What situation made his third-level calm hand become like this
Gu Jun's heart skipped a beat, he looked down at the work table, did I carve anything
He saw a lot of bits and pieces of stone chips on the table, he was still holding the carving knife in his right hand, and the opal in his left hand.
It is still oval in shape and hasn't been changed much, but there is an old seal engraved on the front. It hasn't been polished yet, but it seems to be natural, everything is just right, and the horizontal branches of the old seal are even connected with its different color classes.
"This..." Gu Jun frowned, and found that the electric drill and other tools hadn't changed. Did he use this carving knife all night
With all his strength, he got up and his feet were exhausted, but he walked to the computer and turned on the surveillance video to watch it. He saw that after he began to sense the "Nakt Manuscript", his hands quickly moved, holding a knife to carve the opal...
He looked at it at normal speed for a while, then turned it up to look at it at a higher speed, and then he sculpted like that for the whole night.
Changing the camera to look at different angles, Gu Jun found that his eyes were always closed, which was like an activity in a sleepwalking state.
"It seems that I just engraved an old seal on it. In fact, this is also a kind of spiritual engraving. The internal structure of this opal is already different."
The question is, is this little old seal stone useful
According to Gu Jun’s understanding of the "Nakt Manuscript", he played with the stone for a while, and saw that its brilliance changed, and the old printed pattern flickered again... He couldn’t help laughing happily, holding the stone tightly, It's done! It should be done, life-saving medicine.
He immediately went to get his mobile phone and called Master Tong, and it was his turn to wake up others early in the morning.
"Hello?" But Master Tong picked it up very quickly, and he didn't seem to be sleeping. This old guy was busy enough this week, and he was haggard for a few laps.
"Master Tong." Gu Jun said with a smile, "I finally figured out a technique passed on to me by Great Elder Atar, and our health watch has come out."
"What health watch?" Master Tong was stunned, "Atar still knows this?"
"The health watch is a metaphor. It is actually a monitoring check equipment for the rational state of the spellcaster."
