Chapter 009: Summoning the Altar for the First Time
That night, Shu Hui was a little sleepless.
Today is a special day.
Not only Shu Hui's new house will be properly furnished, but he will be able to go out of the county office to see the real Tang Dynasty. The most important thing is that after nearly ten days of energy storage, the energy tank of the system, which was already close to depletion, has finally been fully accumulated.
Shu Hui's long-awaited summoning altar function will unveil its mystery tonight. Shu Hui couldn't wait for this.
The summoning altar could not only be used in a state full of energy, but Shu Hui's first attempt to make everything as perfect as possible, so as not to have some accidents that could have been easily avoided when he was not familiar with the process.
The first time you call, what should you search for?
Needless to say, hard currencies such as gold and silver can be used to summon gold and silver sacrifices, and you can't make a fortune directly from this.
Pearls can be summoned with the same constituent elements but at a low price, but they are not short of money right now. Another point is that the process of the first summoning will replace the target of the Lord with a sacrificial transformation nebula, which is a small moral matter, and the key point is that it can also cause unforeseen disasters.
Shu Hui didn't know much about the summoning altar, but from the words on its short introduction, he vaguely saw a very serious safety hazard in its use.
For example, Shu Hui summoned a ruby, and it happened to be set on the hairpin of a certain woman. Regardless of the structure of the sacrifice used by Shu Hui at the molecular level, even if it was kaolin, which also contained alumina, it was first converted into free oxygen and aluminum before the summoning altar and then replaced with ruby.
In layman's terms, the matter is still in its place, but the substance occupied by a ruby is first formatted from the sacrifice, and then the information of the ruby is cut directly from the place where it is summoned. Shu Hui obtained this ruby and left only a nebula of free oxygen and aluminum in its original place.
Then at the end of Shu Hui's summoning, the altar releases the lock on the substances at both ends of the summoning channel, and these free oxygen and aluminum will react according to the laws of nature. They reacted violently and emitted a large amount of light and heat, burning a large hole in the skull of the woman with the ruby hairpin!
Or there will be a dust explosion!
It's not as simple as stealing something, Shu Hui can't do it at all. He now just wanted to conduct a safe summoning test with the easily available sacrifices at his disposal, and evaluate the maximum distance and energy consumption of the summoning.
From a safety point of view, it is of course the safest to summon items composed of elemental elements. But using one copper coin to summon another copper coin, isn't it enough to be fed? In fact, because the impurities contained will vary slightly, it usually takes two copper coins to successfully complete the summon.
After thinking about it, Shu Hui decided to divide the one-step test into two parts. First of all, try to summon at a short distance, so that the summoned target is under your nose, so as not to make any big news if you don't think about it for a while.
He got out of bed lightly, for fear of waking up the sleeping Redfish.
But as soon as he moved, Redfish had already woken up. Her slightly hoarse voice came from behind the screen, as if she was about to fall asleep.
"Young Master, are you looking for Mazi?"
“???!” Shu Hui looked puzzled and shocked: "What did I hear just now?" ”
Before he could come up with a reason, Hongyu had already staggered out of bed, went around to the corner behind Shu Hui's low bed, and quickly walked in front of Shu Hui with a small pot.
She found that it seemed a little inconvenient to bend over, so she simply knelt in front of Shu Hui's side. Then he carried a small pot in one hand, and went to untie Shu Hui's silk pants with the other hand.
"Young master, let's drow."
Hongyu finally untied Shu Hui's trouser belt, but she had never taken care of the child herself, so she didn't know what to do next. Although the eldest grandson has many children, he has not produced anything from the time Li Shimin was crowned King of Qin to the time he ascended the throne.
Although Li Shimin and the other women's children can only recognize the eldest grandson as their mother, whether they are born or not, the children are actually taken care of by the nursing mother. Being in the palace forbidden, and being able to reach it, it is natural that Hongyu has no experience in this area.
The eldest grandson sent him to take care of Shu Hui, and I am afraid that he also loves her very much. After all, Li Shimin is a well-known Lolitacon, and he often summons talented women who have not yet reached the end of the palace into the harem and accepts them as talented people. And he not only controls himself, but also lets others control with him. Li Shimin in history once made a matchmaker for his nine-year-old daughter, but fortunately was rejected by the man's family.
"Lying on the grass and !! hastily" At this moment, Shu Hui's head was completely confused.
It's been ten days since I came here tonight, but Yuan Tiangang has no female dependents at home, where will he take care of people? I never thought that Shu Hui's bladder was immature as a child, and she often needed to get up in the middle of the night to pee.
Shu Hui didn't think about it himself, because he was a little anorexic these days, and he didn't rest during the day, so he never got up all night.
Now facing such an embarrassing situation, Shu Hui said calmly: "I don't pee, I just want to come down and drink a glass of water." "I tied my trouser belt very calmly, as if there was no wave in my heart.
"Pretend to be a child, pretend to be a child, pretend to be a child, pretend to be a child......"
While constantly hypnotizing himself, he secretly thought: "It turns out that this is "Ma Zi", when I first watched Hong Kong movies, I thought it was just an ordinary black sentence, but I didn't expect it to be the meaning of RBQ. I was still too pure at the beginning, and sure enough, people in the city are better at playing. ”
"Oh, that slave and maid pour water for the young master." There is a boiled tea soup on the table, although it is close to summer, it is a little hot during the day, but it is quite cool at night, so there is no need to worry about the tea soup spoiling.
Shu Hui came to the desk and sat down, and ordered, "Pour two cups, and you go to sleep." ”
"Yes, young master."
After the red fish returned to sleep behind the screen, Shu Hui waited quietly for a while. It wasn't until I could hear her faint breathing in the empty room that I set my eyes on the two cups of tea on the desk.
Summoning in the water will undoubtedly increase the safety factor a lot, and you don't have to worry too much about causing fire or poison gas. Of course, that doesn't mean it's completely safe.
"Summon the altar, unfold!" Shu Hui meditated in his heart and embodied the summoning altar.
Shu Hui is already quite familiar with this step, whether it is the space-time teleportation device that was deployed when he received the aura of the reward protagonist before; Or the protagonist aura and dark shelter in the items obtained by yourself, there is a process of unfolding.
Shu Hui felt that something that seemed to be able to penetrate everything in the world came to him, but he couldn't see anything.
"Binding the Altar!" Connecting his mind to the summoning altar that had been unfolded here, Shu Hui designated a small part of the space on the table that included a few tea leaves in one of the cups of tea as the working space of the altar.
"Summon—" Shu Hui used some of his mind connected to the altar to direct the altar to bind the summoned object to another cup of tea. This small piece of tea was reflected in Shu Hui's heart at this moment, but it felt as if it was as grand as a whole universe, so that he didn't dare to observe it in depth.
He felt that if his perspective forcibly followed the altar, he was afraid that the connection between his mind and the altar would be shattered by the information fed back by the altar.
To be on the safe side, he summoned a shield of dark protection to cover his entire body, leaving only a slit at his eye to cover it with a force field of lesser intensity, so that he could barely see in the dark. Some of the shields were divided and a semi-enclosed test chamber was enclosed on the table.
"Execute!" When everything was ready, Shu Hui held his breath and gave the first summoning order in his life.
Also......
Successfully complete the summoning for the first time.
I saw that the tea leaf that was summoned should have been slowly rising and falling in the tea water that had not yet completely stopped, but at this moment, it suddenly stood still as if it had been immobilized by a spell. At the same time, the whole leaf and another cup of water began to cast a purple-black glow over the vast majority of the larger tea leaf that was part of the altar and the barely visible tiny part of the edge of the other small tea leaves.
Shu Hui, who had cut off the perspective of the altar, stared at the two cups of tea without blinking, but he didn't see the process of change at all, only to see that the cup of tea that was summoned was rapidly freezing. Except for a little bubble, the summoned tea inside turned out to be more or less intact, only slightly different in color.
However, the cup of water bound to the altar's workspace contained an extra piece of tea that was in the same shape as the one before it was summoned. At the price, several of the sacrificial tea leaves were more or less defective, and even the largest tea was almost gone.
Seeing that there was no danger, Shu Hui put away the shield first.
He looked at the energy consumption: "Summoning mass: 0.31 grams, lock duration: 1.42 seconds, energy consumption: ......".
The search process is omitted, and the tea leaves that are only ten centimeters away in front of you are summoned, and if you don't lock it for too long, the energy consumption can be said to be negligible.
The most important thing is that there is no distance in the consumption given by the altar! This means that the energy consumed by the summon, regardless of its distance, is only related to mass. Of course, items that are out of Shuhui's field of vision need to be located using the search function, which is the next test target.
Shu Hui estimated that if the summoned object was within his own perception range, then the fully filled energy gauge could support himself to summon about twenty-five kilograms of items at a time. On average, in terms of the energy recovery efficiency of each day, Shu Hui can summon nearly 2.5 kilograms of items every day.
There is another point that can be regarded as a relief for Shu Hui. The teacup in which the previously summoned tea leaves were located did not react violently after the summoning ended, and even froze. Although the tea leaves that are supposed to be replaced by nebulae are composed of free atoms, the mechanical vibrations of the atoms are stopped by the system and reach absolute zero.
And although the connection between the atoms has been sheared away, the distance has not changed, and most of the atoms that were previously in the chemical state are closer to each other than the other atoms, and the opportunity to establish the connection is preferentially established. Of course, because the entropy of each reaction is different, it is not possible to establish a connection close together, and this is the reason why the part that was previously turned into a gas escape. Shu Hui estimated that it was nitrogen and hydrogen, which make up ammonia.
"Altar, summon tea again!" Then Shu Hui tested the altar's re-summoning function. Re-summoning does not require access to the target's information, but instead uses the materials preserved by the altar to directly reorganize the matter. Shu Hui easily specified a few other tea leaves in the teacup that had been used as an altar, and then chose to carry it out.
A blue-purple glow crept all over the offerings. Soon, a part of the sacrifice was disassembled, and the dots coalesced together to form a tea leaf that was identical to the one summoned earlier.
Two identical tea leaves appeared! Because the same tea leaves have the same composition at the molecular level, there are no free atomic contaminants formed in the altar.
He picked up the cup of tea and took a sip carefully.
It's really not the same, it's still the same salty and astringent. Nervous for a long time and a little thirsty, Shu Hui drank all the tea in his hand.
Since you believe that this cup of tea is harmless, then express your belief with action!
Shu Hui still remembers that in his previous life, he saw on the news that a tycoon surnamed Gates personally demonstrated in front of the media that he drank a glass of water extracted from feces in order to express his confidence in the space water recycling system he produced.
It's completely different from the restaurant lobby manager who eats cockroaches in his guests' meals, and it represents an unwavering trust in what he knows and learns.
Re-summoning consumes less energy than the initial summon, due to the lack of the target and clipping information. Shu Hui estimated that the energy he obtained every day could support himself to summon three kilograms of items.
This means that if Shu Hui is thrown into the wild, he can rely on feces and soil as sacrifices to create three kilograms of food every day, whether it is coarse tea and light rice or delicacies from the mountains and seas, it is three kilograms.
After trying to summon another tea leaf with a teacup as a sacrifice, the altar will indicate that there are not enough sacrifices to summon after locking on the target. I tried again and summoned again, but something was different. The re-summoning also indicates the lack of offerings, but it is prompted after the execution has begun, although it ends quickly.
In other words, re-summoning does not check whether the sacrifice is sufficient by default, and can be forced to abort due to the lack of sacrifice during the summoning. It's no wonder that when summoned again, the entire marked sacrifice will be covered with a blue-purple glow, so it turns out that there is no check on how much is needed.
Knowing this, Shu Hui lay back on the bed, and he wanted to continue to test the altar's search function.
This function is that the altar compares it in a certain range of the material world according to the description of a certain object provided to it by Shu Hui. It traverses all of Shuhui's space at a certain depth on the surface, from near to far, until it finds a match, or runs out of energy due to searching.
Shu Hui decided to divide this experiment into two parts, first testing the summoning, and now testing the search.
Closing his eyes and connecting his consciousness to the altar, Shu Hui recalled all the beauties he had seen, and quickly built a model of his aesthetics in the altar.
"Altar, search for the most beautiful woman in the world!" Because it was to test the limits of the altar's search function, Shu Hui did not specify a specific target for the search, but an unlimited range of fuzzy matching. When the system still has energy, the altar will continue to search, and if it encounters a woman who is more beautiful than before, it will replace the previous result.
Shu Hui called up the energy gauge of the system while observing the search interface of the altar, and said lightly: "Execute!" ”
Suddenly, only a small amount of energy had been consumed in the first few experiments, and the energy bar was about to be replenished again, and it was quickly filled with black representing emptiness like a bathtub with a valve open. When the black whale swallowed the simulated energy gauge provided by the two pieces of equipment that represented the protagonist's aura and dark shelter, it stopped abruptly.
The energy gauge is empty, and the efficiency of the equipment's reverse conversion of energy cannot keep up with the consumption of the altar, and the search automatically stops.
And Shu Hui, who had been paying attention to the energy gauge and the search results, only saw that at the beginning of the execution, a person appeared in the search results, six meters away, and it was clearly a red fish.
Then with the expansion of the search range, 100 meters, 100 meters, 10,000 meters...... It wasn't until twenty-seven kilometers that the search process came to an abrupt halt because of the exhaustion of energy—
The final result page that pops up shows the character is still a red fish!
At this time, she was sleeping quietly in the view of the altar, with long eyelashes and a straight nose, which was really good-looking. Shu Hui thought that her maid was the first beauty within a radius of dozens of miles, and she was still quite useful in her heart.
But he forgot that it was only picked out by the system based on his aesthetics. According to the universal concept of abundance as beauty at this time in the Tang Dynasty, the red fish that has not yet reached the age of growing meat is still a slightly green fruit, which cannot be called peerless.
"There is not enough energy to lock."
Even if you have enough energy, you can't lock it! Shu Hui shuddered. I didn't think of this before, but I just thought that since it was just a test of the search function, it would be good to follow the idea of search.
Now it suddenly occurred to me that the purpose of this search was to prepare for the call of the altar. If you lock someone and then summon them, is that person still the same person? What will he/she be left of where he/she was from? Thinking of the tea leaf summoned before, the remnants of which still faintly maintained the original frame, Shu Hui felt uncomfortable.
The idea of summoning people should be stifled in the cradle. With Shu Hui's current level of knowledge, there is no point in thinking about such a profound question, and the best thing to do is to never touch this taboo again.
Unless he didn't intend to let that person live in the first place!
The maximum search range is about twenty-seven kilometers, and Shu Hui, who learned this information, was slightly disappointed. Twenty-seven kilometers, which is about the scope of a county, could not use the summoning altar to obtain crops that Datang did not have from other countries or even continents, and the desire to introduce Solanaceae plants from the American family was frustrated.
The energy gauge is also empty, and even if there are many wonderful ideas about the use of the altar now, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice. has no money and is light, but this time Shu Hui slept soundly.
Until he woke up in the middle of the night with urine, and got out of bed in a daze and was about to go to the toilet-
"Young Master, are you going to drow? I'll give you a horse. ”
Shu Hui woke up instantly, and instinctively said no. However, when he saw the two cups of tea on the table, he remembered that he had forgotten to pour them out, and if he was drunk by someone who did not know, he did not know if he would be poisoned.
There was also a problem with the cup of tea he drank before, and then he used the teacup wall to try to summon the tea leaves again, thinking that it was unsafe to be drawn a lot of free elements into the residual water.
Since I want to pour out the tea, I'm afraid I can only pour it into the night pot now. And he was indeed awakened by urine, and now he says no, can he afford to lift that copper night pot?
I'm afraid that I don't have eight or nine pounds, and my current weight is at most thirty pounds.
So he accepted the maid's service in silence, and felt that something precious in his heart called discipline was broken.
