The formation of the melting sword marks the further improvement of Cecil's combat soldiers in terms of combat effectiveness and combat form - in this world where there are various magic and counter-magic, it is difficult for a single long-range weapon or melee weapon to deal with complex battlefield situations , and the melting and cutting sword is filling the current shortcomings of Cecil's combat soldiers, and its other great significance is an improvement in the thinking of the local craftsmen and technicians in Cecil's territory.
Different from the new things that appeared in the Cecil collar in the past, the "Melting Sword" was completed by local people from the initial conception to the final product. Except for Gao Wen's suggestions when choosing the technical route, All the technical and creative links of the entire process did not involve his "plug-in". The craftsmen, technicians, knights, and warriors in the territory brainstormed to complete the design of the new weapon. For Gao Wen, all of this The meaning contained in it has even surpassed the technological achievement of the melting and cutting sword itself.
During the manufacturing process of the melting sword, he saw the ability of the local technicians in this world to use existing technology and materials to process and create - the blade of the melting sword uses a special magic material called "purple steel" , this material has very special properties. It is extremely resistant to high temperatures, and it is almost impossible to use any form of high-temperature forging furnace for melting and processing. Only in an environment of specific intensity arcane energy, purple steel will show Plasticity; on the other hand, the heat insulation material in the melting sword uses a mixture of quartz sand and crystal dust, which is a by-product of the processing of various magical substances in the "magic crystal smelting factory". It has the characteristics of extremely high temperature resistance and poor thermal conductivity. After being mixed with an acidic adhesive, it can be quite firmly used as a filler between metal materials...
The so-called "heat insulation" rune on the sword body is one of the most commonly used basic runes by magicians in the laboratory. It can restrain the heat and direct it to the gap between the rune groups. People usually use it as the outer protection of the alchemy table to prevent the alchemy table from being damaged by all kinds of extremely high temperature magic (after all, many magic experiments need to be realized in extreme environments, and the material of the alchemy table itself cannot resist all kinds of magic. extreme magical effects), the rune craftsmen who often help magicians arrange alchemy devices cleverly use this rune on the melting and cutting sword, allowing it to bind all the heat energy near the blade in an approximate "focus" manner …
These are all substances or technologies that belong to this world, and their unique properties can only be described as unimaginable to the technicians on earth. However, this seemingly backward "medieval world" has its own set of technical routes to process And dealing with them, this really touched Gao Wen a lot.
On the second day after the fusion sword was finalized and put into production, a brand new magic device was being erected on the Lord's Square in the center of the city.
A large group of magicians - the unique "Magic Industry Technicians" in Cecil Territory - were busy under the leadership of Kamel. They transported a "big man" covered with a sheet of tarpaulin to the center of the square, and then began to dismantle the square. The metal cover plate on the center ground exposes the connection end of the magic net under the cover plate. The magicians use various rune substrates with magic circles engraved in advance to measure the situation of the magic net, and after confirming that the connection end is working well , Kamel manipulated the mage's hand and the weight reduction technique to move the two-meter-high "big man" above the connecting end.
People were attracted by this unusual scene and stopped around the square one after another. They noticed that there were soldiers guarding the inner area of the square, but there was no sign of martial law outside the inner area. This means that the lords and scholars have created incredible new things, which have great effects on the realm, and the common people can watch at will from a safe distance.
In other aristocratic territories, commoners are never interested in the affairs of the lords, because most of them have nothing to do with their daily life. The so-called "nobles belong to the nobles, and untouchables belong to the untouchables", but in Cecil On the territory, people are gradually getting used to paying attention to any changes in the territory, because they know that all these are closely related to their lives.
Under the watchful eyes of countless pairs of curious eyes, the large device covered with thatch landed firmly on the connection end of the magic net, and then Kamel's mage's hand uncovered the sheet, and a huge and mysterious magic device appeared in front of everyone. in front of people.
It was a two-meter-high square tower made of crystal and metal—it was the finalized obelisk of magic energy. Compared with the original "prototype machine" that was only half a meter high, it was even bigger, more beautiful, and more beautiful. It will be more stable and efficient.
The magicians immediately began to fix and connect the obelisk. They had already made a round hole for fixing in the center of the square in advance. Now they started to use strong bolts to firmly fix this magic device on the ground. Some people are responsible for fusing the connecting ends extending from the ground to the base of the obelisk—their arms are equipped with "gauntlets" similar to military magic terminals, but the gauntlets are not equipped with lethal scorching rays Instead, the power and range are reduced, and the continuous output performance of the hot-melt beam is enhanced. This magic circle modified based on scorching rays is a new technology of the Rune Research Institute. It has cracked almost all low-level runes. For the mysterious Jenny, such a transformation is a breeze.
Kamel's eyes stayed on the "industrial magic terminals" equipped by the magic technicians for a long time. He knew that these magic terminals could also be equipped with various functional components, from melting beams to cooling rays, Even power drills and chop saws can be installed—just change the housing or the modules inside. In terms of versatility, this magical terminal has even more functions than military terminals. Of course, its power is much lower than that of military models.
According to the lord, this kind of industrial magic terminal is just an "intermediate product". Their ultimate goal is to realize civilian use, so that ordinary people in Cecil Territory can use it in their daily lives.
The arcane sparks on Kamel's face flickered. He watched those magicians who didn't even know a little bit of magic melt the metal with the power of magic, and fixed the base of the magic obelisk. Their operation was so Fluid, even as good as real magicians—in fact, they'll do even better in the future, since they don't have to be distracted to maintain magic and chant spells.
"Magic is just a kind of power, which can be used by mages, ordinary people, and everyone" - what a crazy idea, but what is even crazier is that it is gradually being realized in this land.
"The bolts are all fixed." "The connection end is welded." "The first layer of runes lights up, and the magic connection has been established."
"Master Kamel, the installation is complete, do you want to activate the obelisk? Master Kamel... Master Kamel?"
A few calls from his ears made Kamel recover from his distraction. He floated up slightly, coughed twice majesticly to cover up his embarrassment, and then looked at the magic obelisk that had been installed .
He could easily see the magical power flowing inside and outside the device without getting up close to observe it. Obviously, the installation by the technicians was perfect, and it had entered the best working condition.
"Open the obelisk and release the limiter." Kamel buzzed.
A magician stepped forward, pressed the rune trigger device on the base of the obelisk, and fixed it with a safety bolt. With a low buzzing sound, the large magic device immediately began to fill up. With a wonderful blue glow, the main body of the original deep purple crystal gradually brightened, while its various parts slowly floated up under the action of the floating circle, and entered the predetermined position in midair...
The surging magical energy swept across the entire square in an instant, and almost no one could feel the blowing of this energy, but Kamel opened his arms in the magical energy, quietly enjoying the feeling of full magic.
After adjusting his arcane flow, he no longer felt the "itch".
The soldier who had been waiting by the side immediately stepped forward. After being confirmed by the technician, the soldier took out the "propaganda materials" written by the previous lord, and began to explain the function of this device and the function of this device to the people gathered in the square loudly. Safety instructions during the operation, but Kamel did not pay attention to what the soldiers were preaching, he just raised his head and looked at the sky of Cecil Territory.
A pure white snowflake fluttered down, it was affected by the magic swirl, swirled and fell on the edge of the square, followed by more snowflakes, one after another, fluttering down from the sky.
It's snowing. After winter, the southern region has seen many snowfalls, but in Kamel's eyes, the snowflakes falling at this moment seem to have a different meaning.
"Do you want to extinguish the lights of human civilization?"
The magister from ancient times quietly watched the sky, watching the snow that kept falling from the sky and was getting bigger and bigger.
"You are indestructible."
In the middle of the first winter in New Cecil Territory, the first magic obelisk in human history was lit.
In the Lord's Mansion opposite the Lord's Square, Gawain stood on the balcony, quietly watching the scene on the square through the open window, and after the magic energy obelisk was lit, he showed a faint smile—not excessive Joy, because everything was expected, and the biggest surprise was already experienced when the "prototype" was designed.
He turned around, returned to the room from the balcony, and picked up an improved "receiving device" that was only half the size of a palm from the desk. He installed the receiving device in the newly set card slot on the wall of the room , with a light "click", the receiving device was seamlessly connected with the magic circuit in the room, and a magic spar lamp specially used to test the magic field lit up.
Hetty was already standing in the room, she looked at Gawain with a smile on her face: "Ancestor, the first magic obelisk has been lit, and we will modify the magic machines within the range according to the plan, increasing the number of energy The receiving device for receiving the magic field, after that, the newly produced magic equipment in the factory will also be directly pre-installed with the "magic field receiver". As for the magic spar lamp used as a street lamp, it will not be modified, and it will still be directly powered by the old magic net system .”
Gao Wen nodded: "Very well, let's follow the plan."
"To be honest, I thought you would personally host this 'opening ceremony', just like in previous similar occasions." Hetty looked at Gao Wen with a smile on her face, "After all, it is such an important moment."
"There will be many important moments in the future. I don't need to be there every time. Let Kamel show up this time—he also needs the acceptance and approval of the people in the territory," Gao Wen said lightly. Hosting the 'opening ceremony' in the square, we have more important things to do now."
"You mean... the report from the Observation Tower of the Dark Mountain Range at noon today?"
"Yes, the Wall of Magnificence flickered once—not a good omen."
