Chapter 1592 Flaws of ‘Edda’
,!
No matter who they are, these two things are something that can be encountered but cannot be sought. If Lin can get it, he can't get it by throwing money at it. Obtaining any of these will have its own circumstances or corresponding dangers to face.
After that, even if Lin offered a large reward, he still couldn't find the third rare object. Let alone buying it, there is not even half of the confirmable news. All the magicians who collect rare items tightly keep the news secret.
Now it can be replaced by magic stones to create an energy pool for the magic tower. Even though it has not been experimentally verified, as soon as this news gets out, it is estimated that there will be an earthquake in the land. The impact is far greater than the impact of forums and banks, and it is a far-reaching earthquake!
Moreover, this design can also cooperate with the reduction of the function and scale of the magic tower, lower the design standards of the magic stone group, and save money, labor and trouble.
If one only needs to build a war tower that meets the standards of the old Kaweigong, the cost of the matching magic stone energy pool will be less than one-tenth of the traditional energy pool. The difficulty of construction and the difficulty of collecting materials are extremely different from the traditional form.
Especially the traditional magic tower actually spends a lot of effort on how to restrain the traditional energy pool so that it does not get out of control. Or when it is on the verge of losing control, such as when a large amount of power is extracted, there are control or suppression methods to avoid real misfortune.
A magic tower that uses a new type of magic stone energy pool has no such concerns and naturally does not need corresponding devices. This saves a lot of effort, materials, and space to set up the device.
If we really want to talk about shortcomings, the new magic stone energy pool is not without any shortcomings.
That is, once the power consumption exceeds the design upper limit, it may cause irreversible over-extraction of the magic stone group, even until it is drained dry. At this time, you can only discard the drained magic stones and replace them with new ones.
This is because the power reserve of the traditional energy pool, compared to the consumption of the magic tower, is like building a nuclear power plant just to supply an air conditioner.
Even if I say it very boldly, I will open ten of them at once! Because there is a power plant behind it, ten air conditioners are at the level of drizzle.
But the magic stone energy pool is like a generator set with a power limit. If the usage limit is exceeded, the machine may stop working. At this time, let alone the air conditioner, the electric fan cannot be turned on.
In order to avoid such a situation, the reserve amount must be taken into consideration when designing the power capacity of the magic stone energy pool. Increasing the capacity will correspondingly increase the cost and manufacturing difficulty. How to decide between these choices depends entirely on the wisdom of the builder.
This is not like the energy pool of a traditional magic tower. After a certain magical item is obtained, the supporting measures must be meticulous and the best. It is impossible to cut corners or use cheaper and more trouble-free methods.
Because once safety is ignored, the consequences are not just an explosion of the energy pool. There is a huge chance that the entire magic tower will be blown up to the sky with him, and it may also have an unpredictable impact on the labyrinth ground.
In the early history of Lost Land, there were many times when the magic tower's energy pool had problems. In the end, it was the gods-level figures who came out to clean up the aftermath, and ordinary people couldn't get involved at all.
As for the losses, there is no need to say more. According to estimates from the records of Midi, Lin can directly use atomic bombs as units to simulate.
For example, in a certain year, month, and place, the magic tower exploded and destroyed the Three Kingdoms, which was equivalent to the power of ten little fat people. This part is certainly Lin's understanding. Moreover, according to field surveys, the actual scope of the impact is not much different from the records.
Although the explosion of the magic tower energy pool did not contain radioactive dust, it seems that it will not cause trouble for long.
In fact, the construction of energy pools involves dimensions or planes. Once it explodes, if left alone, the cracks in the broken space may continue to expand, eventually swallowing up the entire Lost Land and causing the destruction of the world. That's why a god-level existence is needed to come forward and deal with it.
Even if the space cracks are closed and repaired, normal creatures may not be able to live in the land that has been impacted by chaotic energy, not to mention that not a single blade of grass will grow. Even just entering it may disrupt body functions and eventually lead to death.
But the power of the lost creatures is far beyond the imagination of a certain time traveler. There are also creatures that are adapted to survive in such an environment. The destructive power of these creatures is not inferior to that of king-level monsters, or even worse.
Fortunately, creatures that have adapted to such an environment will in turn be unadapted to living in normal areas. So it’s no surprise that they are wreaking havoc in the world where ordinary people live.
If we want to talk about the advantage of the magic stone energy pool, it is that there is no worry about exploding the traditional energy pool. This is not to say that the magic stone energy pool will not explode, but it is more likely that the power will be drained directly. Even if it does explode, the consequences and subsequent impacts will not be that serious.
In a relatively short period of time in reality, Lin had integrated the technology of the Miser Energy Core in front of him and perfected the design of his magic stone energy pool to a certain extent. Even the simulation tests passed smoothly, leaving only actual verification.
In order to explain to Guardian Ada, as well as the chief and second-in-command of magic on the floating island, Lin also told his own experience as much as possible and proposed three models of design templates.
They are the basic five-stone energy pool, which is the minimum tetrahedral energy pool design with four red and one orange.
An advanced layered energy pool. However, it is only the basic form of the inner tetrahedron and the outer hexahedron.
Finally, there is the standard energy pool that competes with traditional magic towers. At this stage, it becomes infinitely complicated. And the space required is quite large. A standard designed magic tower would be difficult to fit on one floor.
In fact, when explaining these contents, the understanding ability of the people on the floating island was not weak, but they still spent a lot of time.
The most important thing is that the magic knowledge that Lin studied and the magic knowledge of heavenly people are two sets of knowledge that have been separated for a long time. Each has its own system, and there are many differences in the proper nouns.
In order for both parties to understand, Lin had to explain in a different way, which was more difficult than teaching a child from scratch.
Sometimes they even treat the other party as if they don’t know anything and explain everything from scratch. But often when the story reaches a certain level, the other person suddenly says: 'Ah, this is what it is'. Let the two sets of knowledge finally match up and understand each other.
What is more fortunate is that the heavenly people on the floating island are not ignorant of mathematics. Lin did not test how high their mathematics proficiency was. But at least if addition, subtraction, multiplication and division are replaced with concepts that humans can understand, the four arithmetic operations will be no problem.
Therefore, Lin generously handed over the formula for calculating the power capacity of the magic stone group. However, whether they can use it and whether they can calculate it is no longer within their own business scope.
In fact, if the heavenly beings on the floating islands, who think highly of themselves, admit that their knowledge of magic is not as good as that of a surface magician, they will not be able to do it anyway. Therefore, many of the things Lin explained were memorized by rote and they did not really understand.
Fortunately, there are three sets of design drawings for the magic stone energy pool. Even if they can't use formulas to deduce new designs for certain needs, at least they have these three sets of drawings that they can copy.
And don’t think that the basic five-stone energy pool is inconspicuous and is of no use at all. In fact, Lin has also been considering the design of portable multi-barrel rotating machine guns that fire energy bombs.
The biggest factor limiting this weapon is that it consumes a lot of power. Using too high-grade magic stones is a pure waste. Because high-grade magic stones have many uses, they are difficult to replace with low-grade magic stones.
But if low-grade magic stones can be used to form a limited-capacity 'magazine', then the usability and portability of the multi-barreled machine gun can be greatly improved. But these methods of use, of course, have nothing to do with the heavenly beings on the floating island.
As for why the gods value this technology so much, Lin actually has a guess. This is related to the weakness of the floating island, so the gods did not relent in this regard, they just showed their emphasis on technology.
Don't look at the floating island, which has a Myser energy core as its core, connecting thousands of energy pools on the island. Comparing this to the situation in my hometown, it is not a mere power plant level configuration at all. It is probably a nuclear fusion power plant, the kind that can support the consumption of an intercontinental continent.
Logically speaking, with such a large amount of power support, the defense of the floating island should be impregnable, and an attack can destroy the country in one strike.
However, judging from the recent battles on the floating island, even if a large number of enemies are within the attack range of the standard magic tower, the floating island has never used magic to directly attack and kill a large number of enemies at once. They all sent out celestial troops to cooperate with the empty whales to encircle, annihilate and strangle them.
In addition, the floating island cannot move freely and its movement speed is not fast. These two things made Lin realize that perhaps the energy demand of the floating island is still quite embarrassing.
After all, in order for an island of such a large mass to float in the air, there are daily defensive barriers and concealment magic that need to be maintained. Even if it appears at the moment, the consumption of invisible magic can be saved, and it is estimated that more investment has been invested in protection.
It seems that the energy distribution on the floating island is stretched to the point of being stretched. This is also because Lin noticed that the layout of the magic tower and energy pool on the island is quite unreasonable.
The area where the Miser Energy Core is set up and the layout and proportions of various devices are so exquisite that they look like works of art. However, the magic buildings on the island are built wherever they come up, with no reasonable planning at all.
When you first look at it, you will be shocked by such a huge cluster of magic towers. But at the second glance, it just looks messy and has no sense of beauty at all.
Don’t underestimate the issue of ‘aesthetics’. In someone's hometown, in classical aesthetics, the beauty of a thing means that it conforms to certain mathematical laws.
Like the famous golden ratio, it is widely used in various fields. It can be as large as the pyramid, or as small as the human body structure or the distribution of facial features.
It complies with the laws of mathematics, which means that even if such a layout is not an optimized configuration, at least it will not have too many problems with balance.
However, in Lin's opinion, this floating island completely failed to meet the most basic requirement. In addition to the various magic buildings in a mess, more importantly, there is no extra space on the island to build new magic towers.
