Chapter 1419 Painting

Now, the magical mecha has been manufactured according to Joan's idea.

Looking at the steel giant towering in front of him, Qiao An couldn't help but feel a little pain in spite of his pride.

In order to manufacture this magical mecha, Joan spent a lot of money, and just spent 27 ounces of magic crystals as an enchantment stabilizer.

Among them, 5 ounces are used to attach the 5-ring "item activation technique", and the remaining 22 ounces are all used to make the clockwork module, which is equivalent to 16,000 Gold Durga.

The magic crystal in Joan's inventory was only 19 ounces, which was not enough at all, so he had to buy another 8 ounces of magic crystal at the magic equipment store on campus. After the discount, it cost him 48 credits!

The 10 tons of steel that Joan bought before, including other miscellaneous construction materials, cost a total of 800 gold duga, which was also settled with credits.

Joan participated in three underground expeditions this year, plus two military missions, and published four core journal papers, accumulating a total of 180 credits.

Excluding the previous expenses, until this morning, Joan originally still had 62 credits, but in the end, he spent 56 credits in one go to make the magic mecha, and now only 6 credits are left.

The purchasing power of 1 credit on the university campus is equivalent to 100 Gold Duga, and spending 56 credits means that Joan spent 5,600 Gold Duga for the manufacture of this construct, and this money is only for the entire construction cost a small part of it.

If the value of "Crystal Python Horn" and "Arcana Siphon Crystal" is included, and the spells cast by Joan during the production of the magic mecha are converted into labor costs according to the market price, all of which are priced in cash, the total cost of making the magic mecha is The cost... totals no less than 100,000 Gold Durga!

There is no doubt that among the magic items made by Joan himself, this is the most expensive work ever!

The money has already been poured in, and there is no point in being distressed. Qiao An sighed with a complicated mood, and cast "Advanced Internal Vision" to check the performance data of the magic mecha.

This construct was made by Joan himself, and its soul also regards Joan as its master, and does not resist his scouting spells, allowing Joan to have a clear view of all the performance parameters of the magical mecha.

The data presented in front of him was more complicated, and Joan was fascinated by it when Duo'er's call came from his ear.

"Mr. Vader, is the magic mech finished?"

Joan looked back at Duo'er, saw that she still had something to say, and replied frankly: "This is my first attempt at making a construct, and I lack experience, so there will inevitably be some ill-considered things. If you think If there is a problem, just speak up."

"Mr. Vader, then I will venture to offer some suggestions." Duo'er smiled slightly, "Magical mecha soldiers are steel structures, if exposed to the air for a long time, especially in a humid environment, it will inevitably rust , not only damages the appearance, but also shortens the service life of the structure, have you considered adding an anti-rust process?"

Joan froze for a moment, then shook his head in embarrassment.

"I really didn't think about this question, Duo'er, thank you for reminding me."

"There is no need to be polite between us, Mr. Vader, there are many kinds of metal rust removal techniques, and there are special spells for anti-rust, but as far as I know, the easiest method is to give the rust to the metal exposed to the air. Brush the metal surface with a layer of paint." Duo'er thought about it, "There is still a large bucket of anti-rust paint in the laboratory warehouse, which is left over from the owner's custom-made structure for a customer before, if Mr. Vader needs it , I'll get it right now."

"Okay, but I have to send a letter to the instructor first, and get his permission before using the materials in the warehouse." Joan said cautiously.

Professor Moriarty, who was obsessed with securities speculation, had long forgotten that there was still a bucket of anti-rust paint in the laboratory warehouse, and wrote back to his students telling his students that the materials in the warehouse could be used by him, and there was no need to send a special letter to ask for instructions.

Dol and Ruby, working together, brought a large bucket of paint.

Joan pried open the lid of the bucket and found that the paint was bright red, and it seemed that some kind of alchemical compound specially used for anti-corrosion had been added, exuding a faint aroma.

"That's right, it's anti-rust oil, but this color... tsk tsk, isn't it a little too gaudy?"

Looking at the bright red paint, Joan frowned slightly, hesitating whether to use "liquid alchemy" to change the paint into a less eye-catching color, such as black or silver gray.

"What's wrong with red paint?" Ruby put her hands on her hips and said solemnly: "Ruby, I think the bright red construct is the most beautiful!"

"I like the red painting too, doesn't Mr. Vader like it?" Duo'er looked at Joan with a hint of worry in her eyes.

Qiao An first looked at the "Miss Ruby" in a red dress and red hair, and then at Duo'er, who looked like a mature version of Ruby, and answered wittily, "Actually, I like red too..."

"That's it!" Ruby excitedly picked up a large brush, "Brother Joan, you have worked hard for a long time, sit down and have a cup of tea, and the work of painting the magic fighters will be handed over to you." Give it to Ruby!"

"Uh, thank you for your hard work, be careful, don't smear the paint on yourself."

Qiao An saw that the little girl regarded painting as a game, and secretly laughed.

"Miss Ruby, let me brush for you!"

Duo'er was still a child at heart, so she picked up another long-handled brush and walked towards the paint bucket excitedly.

Ruby turned into a half-human, half-mosquito hybrid form, and said to Duo'er, "Aunt Duo'er, you brush the parts below the waist of the magic mecha. Where you can't reach, I will fly up and brush!"

"Well, it's a very reasonable division of labor, but Miss Ruby, why do you call me 'auntie' again? It's 'sister' - obviously 'sister'!"
