"Alert, intruder! Alert, intruder! ”

Just as Jikshir and Zod were theorizing, his protective machine suddenly sounded the alarm, and the goblin hurriedly turned around to see that a six or seven-year-old human child was curiously playing with one of his bodyguards, and asked the uncle next to him, "Uncle John, why does this iron toy walk and talk?" ”

"Ah, bear child, let go of my machine!" Jikshir hurriedly controlled his own machine and people not to attack indiscriminately - fortunately, when he came, he turned the protective machine into passive mode, and did not start the counterattack procedure when he was not physically attacked. Otherwise, if this human bear child is injured by the machine, God knows what will happen.

"Timmy, that's a toy made by mechanical creatures, goblins." Uncle John replied.

Jikhir immediately felt that he was being provoked by Yan zhòng, and he jumped to his feet and retorted loudly: "That's not a toy!" That's a great invention of my Jikhir! Protective machine qì people! It doesn't have to pay wages, it doesn't have to eat food, it doesn't have to rest and sleep, and it doesn't betray its master, it's much more reliable than a human bodyguard! ”

Zod gestured with his sword, then sneered, "Come on, it can't even stop me with a sword!" Wasting so much steel, you might as well build a few weapons! ”

Jikhir immediately responded angrily: "What do you know! It's science! Do you understand what science is? Forget it, how can a muscular person like you understand the greatness of this invention! Hmph, get out of the way, barbarians! ”

……

When Heimerdinger sent someone to inform Jiang Weihan that he had developed an experimental product, Jiang Weihan couldn't believe that the results would be so fast. He hurried to the Hex Institute of Science and Technology in Heimerdinger.

"So fast?" Jiang Weihan couldn't believe it.

Feeling that his most authoritative area was being looked down upon, Heimerdinger immediately retorted, "I admit that you earthlings are technologically advanced, but our Valoran's magical technology is also unique. Have you seen Ezreal's 'Future Soldier' mech? That's the invention of our Hextech industry. Other 'Battlefield Mechs' series, 'Iron Legion' series, explosion-proof series, Metal Gear series, and Astronaut series are all our products! ”

"Uh, pretty good." Hearing him say this, Jiang Wei felt that he had indeed underestimated Valoran's scientific and technological strength. At least the ones on Ezreal's Future Warriors look pretty cool, and Earth technology really can't be completely replicated. Turning the subject to the purpose of this visit, he pointed to Heimerdinger's invention and asked, "Can I give it a try?" ”

"Don't worry about it, let's see if you're not satisfied!" The great inventor proudly pointed to the thing on the table that was about the size of an iPad.

Jiang Weihan picked it up and looked at it: it was two centimeters thick, the shell didn't show too many novelties, and the upper part of the front was polished and smooth crystal, Jiang Weihan guessed that this was the screen? And the lower part of it is a special illuminated button made up of numbers and letters.

"How do you use this?"

Heimerdinger explained: "This is the magic communicator I made based on the more primitive principle of the wired telephone that you said. And in place of the base station part, there is a Valoran resonance crystal that I have transformed. It can transmit and convert some unique waves, similar to the electromagnetic waves you described. If you want to contact someone who also has this terminal communicator, you must first know their terminal number and location. When dialing, enter the number of the corresponding Resonance Crystal Tower, and then ask the Resonance Crystal Tower's liaison to transfer the terminal holder you need to find. ”

The great inventor saw that Jiang Weihan still seemed to understand but did not understand, so he pointed to the ipad in his hand - uh, the scientific name "magic communicator" and said: "For example, I am now looking for Galen in the city-state of Demacia." First of all, I should call the code number D010 of the Demacian Resonance Crystal Tower, and then the staff in the crystal tower will connect it and ask for the specific number you want to transfer. Once you've put in your number, if it's within the reach of the Demacia Crystal Tower, you'll be ready to start talking! ”

"Oh—now I'll understand!" Jiang Weihan thought to himself, isn't the difference between phone calls during the Republic of China? Call the phone office: Pick me up so-and-so, and then you can talk after the phone bureau is transferred.

"And what is the coverage of a Resonance Crystal Tower?" He asked.

"At the moment, I'm actually yàn of this, covering a radius of one kilometer."

――Sounds acceptable.

"And what about the cost?"

"About five hundred gold coins, right? I don't know much about that. The great inventor scratched his head.

Jiang Weihan's heart sank: Five hundred gold coins is not a small amount. It's enough for an average family of four to live for forty years. He had counted Valoran's inventory before, and there were only more than 30 million gold coins in total - this was still the accumulated wealth of various city-states, including the treasury and the like, and it was not Jiang Weihan's private property.

"So how much does it cost to cover 1 million square kilometres?" he asked. ”

Heimerdinger reported a desperate figure: "159 million gold coins." ”

"Looks like we'll have to keep improving the technology!" Jiang Weihan squatted down and patted Heimerdinger's small shoulder, "I'm optimistic about you!" ”

"Well, looks like I'm going to have to keep improving its performance." Heimerdinger shrugged. "Maybe we need to find a better Resonance Crystal."

Jiang Weihan felt that the cost of this magic communicator should be reduced by at least half, and the performance should be increased by four or five times before it can basically have the value of large-scale construction. It's not a good deal like it is now.

"By the way," he suddenly remembered, "doesn't Tarik, the jewel knight, know the power of gems?" I think you might as well ask him to test it out for you? ”

Heimerdinger patted his head and exclaimed, "Yes, that's right, how did I forget him!" Hurry up, go get him! Go, go, go! ”

So Jiang Weihan was rudely pushed out of the real yàn room - but he was still quite happy. If the Jewel Knight could really help, so much the better.

On Jiang Weihan's way back, a sharp and exaggerated voice sounded in his ears: "Oh! My dearest lord, I have finally found you! ”

He looked back and saw that a goblin was running up with short legs, followed by several bodyguards of the machine qì people - this image was not the dream goblin who met the salesman on the way over?

"Jikhir? Are you coming to Dunhold to find me? Jiang Weihan remembered that he had told this goblin that he was looking forward to his improved machine. I didn't expect this goblin to really come. And it looks like his machine has indeed been partially improved. At least he didn't turn off the fire when he ran.

"Oh my God, you remember my name, I'm so touched!" Jikshire's exaggerated expression matched his body movements, which was very funny.

Jiang Weihan smiled: "So you're here to sell your improved machine?" ”

Jikhir's eyes lit up, and it was a thirst for gold: "If you feel the need, of course - but that's not my main purpose. I'm here to sell you an epoch-making product--Dangdangdang-" He took a box from a machine, carefully opened it, and presented it to Jiang Weihan: "That's it!" My latest invention! ”

Jiang Weihan saw that there was a strange-looking thing lying in the box, one end was a handle that could be grasped, like an electric iron, and the other end of the wire was contained in a box, I didn't know what it was.

"What is this?"

"This is the Jikshir goblin pacemaker!" Jikshir replied proudly, "It can save some people with weak vital characteristics." For example, drowning, heart disease, suffocation, etc., almost as long as the symptoms of cardiac arrest can be used! ”

"Oh, pacemaker!" Jiang Weihan immediately remembered. In the World of Warcraft game, there is indeed such a thing, it can resurrect the dead, well, there is a chance of failure. But obviously, there can't be such an anti-heaven thing in the real world, so it functions similarly to a pacemaker on Earth.

Jikhir saw that his invention had aroused the interest of this lord, and sure enough, he was not wrong, this dearest Jiang was a person who was willing to believe in science and respect science, which was really rare! So he started gushing about this product of his.

Halfway through his talk, Jiang Weihan stretched out his hand to interrupt him: "Okay, Jikhir." You don't have to go on. ”

Jikshir looked at him wistfully, and the goblin felt that he was about to negotiate the biggest deal of his life, and that he could finally take the big step of buying Hillsbrad.

"I do have some interest in your invention. This goblin pacemaker is a good invention. Jiang Weihan first affirmed the invention of the goblin, after all, this is a medical instrument, and it is indeed very useful. Azeroth has a wide variety of healing spells: Holy Light, Natural Spells, True Qi, and Divine Magic.

But spells are not a panacea. It can heal wounds and cure some simple diseases, but for most congenital diseases, there are still some incurable diseases that spells are still powerless. If someone had a heart attack, there was basically nothing the Light could do. Spells cannot cure pneumonia infection, nor can they eliminate appendicitis, which still requires traditional pharmacy and surgery.

However, the principle of the pacemaker is not complicated, and my scientific research institute can easily make a similar or even better replacement. In other words, there are already zài things that serve the same purpose. ”

Jikhir's eyes widened and he exclaimed, "This can't be! I was the first to invent it! ”

Jiang Weihan smiled: "In Azeroth, perhaps. But Valoran has a mad scientist who has transformed himself into cyborgs - many of his have basically been replaced by machines. Do you think he won't be able to work on a pacemaker? Even another scientist who worked under me had his own brain surgery. ”

Jikshir blinked, froze for a moment, and suddenly his eyes were filled with tears, and he screamed dryly: "Ah-no, this is my hard work--I want to apply for patent protection--woo-woo-you are infringing!" He wiped his eyes and stared at Jiang Weihan pitifully: "My dearest lord, even if you don't buy my goblin pacemaker, at least you should pay me a part of the royalties, right?" ”

Jikhir blinked pitifully and pleaded with tears: "Yes?" ”
