Chapter 114: Technical Issues

It can be that my work efficiency is not bad, Nuwa and they don't want to do it~. > "This information isn't comprehensive enough, but at least it gives us a general idea, so as a reward we'll cancel out your XP drop. However, until your mission is completed, your experience will be locked up, and while it won't go down, it won't go up either. ā€

"Oh!" I nodded helplessly, if you don't rise, you won't rise! It's better than going down. But I still have to hurry. Now that our guilds are fighting all over the world, once the campaign is over, as a guild leader, I will naturally accept the compensatory experience bonus of the guild leader. This experience is liquidated at the end of the battle, and given the scale of this battle, the final experience will be very impressive. If I still don't complete the task when the experience is settled, it means that I haven't gained any experience in this battle, so I won't die at a loss?

After confirming the current situation, the higher gods encouraged me again, and then left the space of Mother Earth, and I had to leave here for the time being. The barracks of the British and French forces are definitely not able to go to now, and even if they get in, they probably won't be able to get any useful information. As for Venus...... She's not online yet! But what I'm worried about now is not that I have nothing to do, but that I don't know what to do. The guilds are so big that you can't even think of them, and there are only times when you can't get busy, but now I'm not going to take care of any battlefield, because there are people in charge of those places. As a senior leader, you must learn how to delegate your work to your subordinates, and if I really have to do everything myself, even if I can do it, I can't do it.

I'm not going to manage things on the battlefield, but I still have to do something for the guild right now, but I'm doing the groundwork. After a few transfers using the teleportation array, I arrived at the Guild's New World base, which is our practical and technological center, where the Magic Crystal Power Research Institute and the Magic Machinery Research Branch in Isenger were previously relocated.

"President." When the person in charge of the Ministry of Science and Technology saw my appearance, he immediately greeted me warmly.

I nodded casually in greeting, then looked at the busy researchers nearby. "Do you have researchers here for mechanics and magic crystals and energy systems?"

"Yes, for sure, but how many do you need?"

"Get me a technical team out, not too many people, but elite. I'm going to analyze the thing that got back from the Japanese. ā€

"Oh, you mean that?" The person in charge immediately remembered what I was talking about. "The little thing you sent me was very crudely designed, but the key parts of it were so complex that we reckon they were using foreign technology. However, since you only brought back one sample, we didn't dare to carry out destructive real yĆ n, which led to the fact that the progress of real yĆ n was affected by strict. ā€

"Take me to see it."

"Please follow me."

Soon we arrived at an independent Dishi yĆ n district. The equipment here is much more professional than the previous research hall. This is because it is a place for in-depth research. And the outside is just the place where the sorting and sample testing are done. Now, the rocket-like thing I captured from the Japanese battleship is hovering in the middle of my hall. A faint yellow curtain of light surrounded it. Apparently there has been a vacuum inside. And it seems that there are multiple layers of protection.

"Where are we in the analysis now?" The person in charge asked the nearby researcher.

The researcher in charge of the project did not immediately answer our questions. Instead, let someone else flip a switch. Then I saw that the windows and doors around this real room were lowered, and finally the whole room was completely sealed. After the room is closed, the indoor floor lighting is automatically lit up. Then we felt that our body suddenly became much heavier. This is because the gravity dust circle is activated in the room. This circle can produce a gravity effect of 1.5 times the normal gravitational force. Excess gravity can cause solids suspended in the air to land quickly on the ground. So as to achieve the effect of dust removal. Almost all of the high-level practical rooms of the Guild are equipped with such equipment. So I'm no stranger.

As the containment and dusting work was completed, the researcher in charge of the project immediately ran back and instructed his ground staff to activate several devices. Then we saw that the yellow light curtain in front of us that wrapped the sample flashed a few times and then disappeared. The project leader took a pair of gloves from the researcher next to him and put them on his hand. Then he began to draw in the air. Not far away, the specimen moved on its own as if he were holding it in his hand. First, there was a ring on the side of the thing that looked like a sealing ring, and it was pulled up and pulled out. Then the back half of the shell was taken off like a small missile. The inside part is exposed.

Without the protection of the shell, we can see the internal structure of the thing very intuitively. The project leader explained to us: "As you can see. The second half of this stuff is actually very simple. At his motion, the staff next to him shone a beam pointer on a part of the thing. What you see now is a propulsion device. The principle of its use is nothing more than a backward jet of air to generate propulsion. The principle is very similar to that of a missile. However, its airflow does not come from the work of heat. Rather, it came from this magic circle. After analysis by the Ministry of Magic. It's just a low-level Earthwind Circle. Powered by the energy of the Magic Crystal, it generates strong winds. The structure can be said to be very simple. If we were to do it in the Guild Place, it would provide at least three times the propulsion without increasing energy consumption. And because this circle is not very stable when used. So this thing is estimated to fly in a straight line. Therefore, if the target is too far away, it is likely to deviate. ā€

I nodded and asked, "I don't need to explain the latter part, I can see such a simple thing at a glance, what I want to know is what secret is hidden in the previous part." I was fighting the Japanese with the wrong ammunition, and one of them hit their own battleship by mistake. Such a small thing actually blew a big hole in the main protective plate of the battleship, and if our shells had this power in the same volume, then we could completely use a fast pilot ship to take down the entire Japanese fleet in the future. ā€

"Here's the key issue." The project leader listened to me and began to work quickly on the sample, then he removed the warhead fairing and removed the second half of the propulsion. The rest of the room is only five to six inches long, about the size of a small thermos cup.

The exterior of the remaining part of this section is a number of frames and wiring,

It's not much, and from the outside, you can see that there is a metal ball inside it that is bigger than a ping pong. The project leader explained to us, "What we're seeing now is the core of this thing. The mess out there is really just a detonating device. The reason why it is so big is entirely because of the level of the other party's system. With our guild's current technology, the same initiating device would only be about half its size. Besides, we have better detonating devices, so there's no need for something so old. After he finished speaking, he quickly removed the frame of the accident side without waiting for me to ask a question, and then took the metal ball out of it. Now the key questions are focused on this thing. ā€

"What is this?" I asked curiously.

"It's actually a box." The project leader easily opened the thing, and it turned out to be two metal hemispheres, with a hollow ground in the middle, but now there was nothing in it. "We've opened this thing before, and then we got this." With his gesture, a crystal ball flew in front of us. The ball is completely transparent, and it can be seen that it is hollow and contains a pale green liquid, but it is not full.

"What is this?" I don't have any impression of this crystal ball.

The project leader explained: "The crystal ball was a container that we made ourselves, and it was added later. What really came out of this little ball of steel was actually that pale green liquid. ā€

"So what exactly is this liquid?"

"We were also weird at first. But after repeated research, we finally came to a rather surprising conclusion. ā€

"What conclusion?"

"That pale green liquid is the magic crystal."

"Magic Crystal?"

"That's right. Liquefied magic crystal mixture solution with some additives added. ā€

"Magic crystals can be liquefied?"

"It didn't work before, but now what we have in front of us is the finished product, so it is reasonable to save zĆ i, obviously someone has the technology to liquefy magic crystals."

I nodded and continued, "So what's the matter with the additives you just mentioned?" ā€

"This is not a pure liquefied magic crystal solution. We have sampled and tested some other additives in this liquid. ā€

"How do you know it must have been artificially added and not liquefied residue?"

"Because these substances do not exist in the solid magic crystal, and the proportion of these impurities accounts for more than 30 percent of the solution, the pure technical problem will not produce so many impurities. In addition, these additives are not disordered. They act in solution as a similar stabilizing agent to accelerate the wave and inhibit the explosion of liquefied magic crystals. For these reasons, we consider these substances to be artificially added auxiliary ingredients rather than simple impurities. ā€

"So you've almost analyzed this thing, why are you still saying it's difficult?"

"Although we have figured out the principle and basic structure of this thing, there are still two fatal problems. First, we don't know the specific method of liquefaction of magic crystals. All we know now is that magic crystals can be liquefied, but we don't know anything about how to liquefy. Secondly, this auxiliary additive is obviously made up of a mixture of multiple substances, and its composition is quite complex, and we simply do not know the specific proportion of the addition and the effect of each component on the final effect. The success rate of indiscriminately configuring additives is infinitely close to zero, so we simply don't know how to get them. ā€

After listening to the report of the project leader, I couldn't help but frown. "Is there a way to solve these two problems?"

The project leader replied: "All technologies can be studied, the problem is only time. A technology that can be developed in a few months or years is considered a valuable thing, but if the same thing takes hundreds of years to study, it is basically a useless waste. So if we really want to study these two technologies, we can definitely work out both technologies, but the question is how much it will cost and how much time it will take. ā€

"Can you estimate the approximate consumption?"

The person in charge of the project looked at the person in charge here, and then the person in charge turned around and said, "At present, our budget here is 100 million crystal coins per month, if it ......!" ā€

I interrupted the project leader directly before he finished speaking, and said, "Your 100 million crystal coins will not be allocated here in the future." After saying that, I came over and said to the person in charge of the project: "In the future, I will take out 100 million crystal coins every month for your research, and you tell me how long it will take you to produce results with such financial support?" ā€

The project leader was quite excited to hear what I said, but after seeing my expression, he immediately calmed down and analyzed: "Actually, we have been doing liquefied magic crystal technology before. Originally, all substances in this world have melting points, so theoretically, as long as the temperature is high enough, the magic crystal can be liquefied, but the problem is that the magic crystal is like a bomb when the energy is sufficient, and heating the magic crystal is similar to taking fire to roast explosives, so liquefaction has always been a major difficulty. However, we have already mastered the direction of research. The liquefied magic crystal in this crystal ball has given us a lot of inspiration, and we have determined the research direction on the magic crystal liquefaction technology at low temperatures, and obviously the other party used some kind of catalyst to accelerate this process, what we are missing now is to find out what this catalyst is, so with such financial support, I estimate that the results will be available in three weeks at most. However, compared to the liquefaction of magic crystals, the real difficulty is still in that kind of additives. First of all, we have to figure out which of the ingredients have what specific effects, so that we can find substances according to the required ingredients and study how to produce this additive. Judging from the design of that small missile, the other party's technology is worse than ours, and the reason why they can liquefy the magic crystal and research the additive may not be their own technology, so we deduce that the additive itself may not be perfect, so it is not a good idea to imitate it as it is. However, the detailed analysis of the effects of various substances is a big project in itself, and it is not enough to have money, but also to have enough manpower. ā€

I directly turned to the general person in charge here and said, "Twice the number of researchers from various departments will be transferred here to fill this place, and I will help you find the people you lack over there." After saying this, I said to all the researchers here, "The production of the Liquefied Magic Crystal Bomb depends on you, our guild needs this kind of thing very much, so please everyone!" ā€
