Melita left, and took the ring left by the cultist with her when she left. As a transaction item, and as a thank you for Gawain's help in recovering the ring, Melita made a ring on behalf of the Mithril Treasury. promise:
In the future, as long as there are any leftover fragments of the Eternal Slate, or similar "inhuman things", they will give priority to telling Gawain.
To Gawain, this promise was far more valuable than the ring.
But a humiliated half-elf didn't seem to think so. Amber lay on Gawain's desk, put his face on the table, paralyzed there like a salted fish, and muttered while paralyzed: "One It looks like an expensive thing... I just took it away... I didn't even take out a single copper plate... The people from the Mithril Treasure House are too stingy... And they have to eat a meal when they leave... …”
Gawain squinted at this guy: "They will help collect information on the Eternal Slate and the like, don't you think this is more valuable?"
"That can't be used for money, and the veiled woman said it easily. God knows how long it will take them to find a new slate fragment—that's the eternal slate! It's not a stone on the road," Amber continued paralyzed, "Ah, they If you can't find it in a hundred years, you wait a hundred years, okay?"
Before Gawain uttered a word, he heard this guy continue to babble: "Ah yes, you have special skills, the big deal is that when you get bored, you will be pulled down to death, and then when they find it, let your descendants give it to you. You go to the grave and burn the news for you, and then you climb out..."
"Speaking from the bottom of my heart, even if you are really chosen by the God of Shadows, it's really a miracle that you can live so big," Gao Wen raised his eyebrows and glared at Amber, "Don't talk nonsense - go and help me Open the box over there and bring the top bag inside."
Amber, a salted fish, stood up and got up from the table, swaying to the thing while muttering: "Isn't it usually Betty who does it for you, why is it my turn today - by the way, where did that little maid go? ? I haven't seen her for a long time..."
"I gave her a half-day leave, and let her take Pea to get acquainted with this place. Pea is afraid of life and can't speak. She is easily frightened when she comes into contact with people in the territory, but she gets along very well with Betty unexpectedly, maybe they two to be friends."
Amber put the bag in front of Gawain, and leaned over with a smile: "I tell you, I really appreciate you a little bit now - I thought at first that your approachable people are all pretending, but now It seems to be true. People who are not serious can't arrange this step for you."
"Thank you for your appreciation." Gawain casually said,
While pulling Amber's head aside, he poured out the contents of the bag.
There are a bunch of grayish-white crystals with a dull color. The average size is only the size of a pinky finger. The surface has a slight color and luster, with a mysterious atmosphere unique to magic materials. However, regardless of the appearance or texture, it does not look like some high-end stuff. Son.
"What is this?" Amber was silent for a few seconds. After seeing these things that seemed to be sold for a little money, he immediately gathered up again: "Crystal? But it looks like the quality is very poor..."
"This is the magic crystal that has just been shipped from Tanzania. It's a sample of the first shipment. You forgot? I placed a huge long-term order for that Viscount Andrew."
"Magic storage crystal? This thing?!" Amber stared at the gray-white crystals for a while, then suddenly shouted, "That Viscount Andrew doesn't have such a rude person! We saved him. Damn, he will use this thing to fool people? This kind of crystal is thrown away as slag in a slightly larger bonanza!"
Gawain looked at this puffed-up half-elf with a little surprise. He never expected that this guy who didn't care about anything in the territory would be so angry at this time because of the loss of the territory, but he just smiled: "Don't be so exaggerated, this thing is much better than the slag, and the Mr. Viscount is not cheating at all-he sold these crystals to the price of three Cecil silver coins and one taka (weight unit). Ours, where can you find this price?"
"Three silver coins..." Amber quickly thought about the size of the newly minted Cecil silver coin in his mind, and then his face became subtle, "That's really cheap... But you buy so many inferior magic storage. What is the crystal for? This kind of appearance... I am afraid that only the most basic apprentices will use them when doing exercises? And the apprentices with a little money may not be willing to use them."
Gao Wen smiled: "Do you know what the biggest problem with this inferior magic storage crystal is?"
"The magic storage capacity is only half that of high-quality crystals of the same volume, and the energy dissipation is extremely serious, especially the second one, which directly makes them useless." Amber obviously still has some understanding of these common sense issues, after all When it comes to whether it can be sold for money, "the reason why man-made magic storage crystals are not popular is also for this reason."
"Yes, the low magic storage ability is only a small problem. Just put two more crystals. The biggest problem is that the energy dissipates quickly. Magic's crystals are fatal, so these crystals are so worthless, although they have huge reserves, they are hard to come in handy," Gawain said, opening the locker under the table and taking out a piece from it. The hexagonal metal plate is placed on the table, "But if you change your mind, these crystals that can't store energy can also come in handy..."
Amber looked curiously at the metal plate Gawain took out. She recognized that it was something from Rebecca not long ago. It seemed to be the product of the machine shop. The edge is the kind of "industrial product" that is pressed out of the machine mold in an instant using the latest "stamping and forming technology", and on the surface of the metal plate, you can also see neat groove lines, and inlaid in the lines. magic material.
This is a "universal substrate" engraved with a magic circle, and Amber thinks he has seen the rune structure on it.
After trying hard to recall for a long time, she finally said "Oh-": "Oh~~ I see, this is the thing Rebecca and Jenny drew before!"
"Honeycomb type magic net unit, this is a basic unit, it can work alone, I engraved it on a universal base plate that can be moved, and it becomes a 'part' that can be combined with other things at will," Gao said. As Wen said, he turned the substrate over, exposing the vacant grooves on the back of the substrate, "and these grooves are connected to other things."
"So this metal plate is now gathering magic power?" Amber looked at this new thing completely different from traditional magic props in amazement, "Then what are you going to use these magic power for? Such a small magic net unit can The magic power gathered should be limited, right?"
"It is indeed limited. It is very difficult to activate a first-level spell based on the output of this magic net unit alone, so you must first charge these crystals with energy," Gawain pointed to the inferior magic storage crystal next to him, "Complete one After the charging cycle, the magic power in the crystal is exported. Since the charging is carried out continuously, the escape of the crystal is no longer a problem. You see, it acts as a temporary register in this system. , used to store a small amount of magic power generated by the magic net unit, then as long as the crystals form an array and supplemented with a long enough charging cycle, it is completely possible for such a basic unit to release enough magic power to drive advanced spells ."
Amber's eyes widened from the moment he heard it, and when he heard the last look at Gawain, something was wrong: "You bastard... Are you really sure that you are a knight?"
"Uh... as for such a big reaction?"
"You are a knight, where did you get all these magic theories!" Amber stared, and then he looked at the array substrate and crystal in Gawain's hands in disbelief—these things haven't been combined yet, There are still many key runes and control circles lacking, but it is obviously not far from completion. "This thing... is it a magic device? But it still seems to be just a part..."
"Yes, it is still a part, but a very important part, and with it, I have completed the most important part of my plans: how to solve the mobile energy problem without the fixed magic net power supply problem," Gao Wen smiled, "I plan to name it Magic Capacitor, what do you think of this name?"
"Magic capacitor?" Amber blinked, "What does this thing have to do with electricity? Are you going to use it to launch lightning bolts?"
"Uh... well, I didn't expect this," Gawain thought for a while, and then put it another way, "Then I decided to call it a magic capacitor."
Amber: "...Still bring something like this!?"
Seeing Amber's stunned look, Gawain felt great joy, so he lowered his head happily, found the batch of drafts that he had not completed before, and prepared to continue to calculate the power and charging efficiency of the honeycomb magic net unit. It was a problem, but not long after he started working, he suddenly heard a commotion outside.
"I'm going to see what's going on!"
After saying these words, Amber disappeared in front of Gawain in a flash: As long as Gawain writes something, she will definitely be dizzy, and at this time, she would like to find an excuse to run away.
But just after she ran out for a while, she rushed back in a hurry: "Gawain! Gawain! Knight Byron is back!"
"He's back?" Gao Wen immediately put down the pen in his hand, "Let him in!"
Knight Byron walked into the tent. The exploration of the ruins for several days made him look quite tired, and he looked like he was in a mess, but the expression on this gentleman's face was obviously very excited. When he came in, he gave Gawain a knightly salute, and then said excitedly: "My lord! We found a hidden area in the ruins, which may have been the secret testing ground of the Gondor Empire back then! Not only are there many intact equipment, equipment, and supplies inside. , and... and also found a small number of manuscripts and documents that are still recognizable!"
