Chapter 200: Rune Research Institute
In front of Gawain, there was a set of blueprints for the new processing equipment he envisioned.
A few months ago, he would have thought that he had devised such a machine in such a backward social condition as wishful thinking and a radical development that did not respect reality, but what happened in recent times has taught him that he still needs to further adjust his thinking and further get rid of the experience left over from his previous life—to prevent making wrong judgments based on those experiences.
It was a machining machine with various magical devices, using a next-generation glow-ray substrate that continuously excites thermal beams as the cutting bit, a complex set of repulsion devices that could be accurately excited and quickly started and stopped as a moving mechanism, and a puppet control core as the control center, leaving the operation blank for the time being—Gawain hadn't thought of how to integrate a simple rune trigger into a complex puppet core.
This is a complete "drawing machine", which cannot be built at this stage, but Gawain can be sure that there is no problem with its thinking, and he has drawn this temporarily unrealizable system on the drawings entirely because these days he has sorted out his actions and gains in the previous months, and has uncontrollably generated some ideas in the process.
Footsteps came from the corridor outside, Gawain raised his head, and the next second he saw the door being pushed open, and Rebecca ran in: "Ancestor, I heard Betty say that you are looking for me?" ”
After Rebecca scurried in, the white-haired Jenny followed carefully into the room, Miss Runemaster's face was a little helpless, obviously the almost non-stop accidents and accidents when she was acting with Rebecca made her quite embarrassed, she glanced at the Viscount with a full face, bowed her head and saluted Gawain: "Lord Lord, do you have instructions?" ”
Before Gawain could speak, Rebecca had already noticed the blueprint on the table, and she immediately exclaimed happily: "Hey! Jenny, look! My ancestor drew a new drawing~! ”
"Your Lord, have you designed a new machine or weapon?" This time, even the respectful and well-behaved Jenny couldn't restrain her curiosity and came up, she looked at the concept machine on the table in surprise, the diagram of the disassembled parts next to the machine was very clear, and she could vaguely guess what this thing was for, "This is ...... Some kind of device for cutting plates? Wrong...... It's not just cutting, it seems to be able to shape or sculpt it? Using a scorching ray as a carving knife? ”
Jenny looked at the drawings on the table with eagerness and curiosity - she had a strange awe for Gawain, not only because of the other party's status and heroism, but also because the latter always had a "way of thinking" beyond the scope of ordinary people, who could always come up with some bold but feasible plans, and only when these plans were realized did ordinary people realize the meaning of his every step of the idea.
This is true in the realm of magic, even though rune logic is not Gawain's invention, but Gawain has found the right way to apply rune logic, and those general substrates and mass production ideas have not even been thought of by Jenny, a rune master.
But this time, Jenny felt that the device designed by Gawain was really ...... It's too much ahead.
"Lord Lord, with all due respect, there are a lot of structures on this machine...... I'm afraid there is no way to achieve it at the moment, not to mention anything else, we don't have any technicians in the core of the puppet, this is the esoteric technology of the Northern Violet Kingdom......"
"I know that this machine is not a task for you," Gawain knew that the two girls in front of him were already mistaken, but still let them finish the drawings before breaking the silence, "I am going to give you a special, long-term task." ”
"Special long-term missions?" Rebecca's eyes widened, and then she became happy (she seemed to be always happy), "Ancestor, are you going to make us the project leader again?" ”
"It's not just a project this time," Gawain laughed, "I'm going to set up a new department." ”
"A new department?" Jenny asked cautiously, "Is it like ...... Mechanical research institutes like that? ”
"Similarly," Gawain nodded, "I plan to set up a department that specializes in the study of rune logic, and uses rune logic to simplify, optimize, and popularize the application of various magic circles, and this department will be subordinate to the 'Magic Energy Technology Department' that will be established in the near future." I'll name it 'Rune Research Institute', Jenny, you're the head of the Rune Research Institute - of course, there is a shortage of talent in the territory at the moment, this so-called research institute is just a framework, and you don't have any subordinates or assistants for the time being, and when you can have manpower, it depends on when the rune logic textbooks you promote in your school can train the first batch of new students. ”
"I'm responsible?" Jenny pointed at herself in surprise, then waved her hand quickly, and pointed to Rebecca next to her, "I think the viscount is more suitable than me!" I...... I just know how to calculate runes, but Miss Viscount has not only mastered rune calculations, but she also knows the knowledge of formal mages, and she also knows the principles and practical techniques of various magical devices, no matter how you look at it, she is better than me......"
"Of course I know," Gawain interrupted with a smile, he knew that what Jenny said was true—it wasn't that Miss Rune Master was modest, but that the stupid roe deer was indeed a genius in the professional field, and was currently the only dual-threaded talent in the realm who could seamlessly switch between the magical and mechanical realms, "so she has another job: I'm going to put Rebecca in charge of the magic technology department." This department is not only responsible for rune logic, but also studies various fields of magical technology. ”
Rebecca listened with a wink next to her for a long time, then suddenly lowered her head and counted with her fingers, and looked up at Jenny in surprise: "Jenny! So I'm higher than you! ”
Jenny looked at Rebecca with a strange look in her eyes, "You...... It's already higher than me......"
Gao Wen also looked at his little granddaughter with strange eyes: "Have you forgotten that you are still a viscount?" ”
Rebecca was stunned for a moment, and only after two seconds did she suddenly exclaim, "...... I really forgot ...... No, it's not that I forgot, I don't usually pay attention! ”
Gawain sighed deeply, and said in his heart that this child's head was not caught by the door when he was a child, at least it was caught by the city gate—and then he quickly put the problem aside and continued: "Of course, the new organizational structure is only one aspect, and now there is a shortage of talents, even if these departments are established, you still have to work together to conduct research. On the other hand, I'm going to give you a research project. ”
The two immediately closed their mouths and listened carefully to Gawain's arrangement.
"I want you to start from the first level, and sort out all the conventional magic that can be circled at once, in short, it is to store and archive all the current traditional magic circles, and at the same time use rune logic to simplify and optimize the corresponding ones, and design the corresponding rune base scheme. After each kind of magic circle is 'generalized', it is classified into the archive, and those magic circles that cannot be optimized at this stage, or whose basic principles are not even clear, and are in a state of 'technical black box', must also be sorted out separately, and the reasons and current situation of their inability to optimize and cannot be analyzed will be registered for future research. ”
Jenny and Rebecca's eyes widened, but the former was marveling at the "sheer scale" of Gawain's plan, while the latter was already simulating a lot of prospects and developments in his mind.
After a few seconds, Rebecca couldn't help but get up: "Ancestor, are you going to make a general archive, and then it is convenient for subsequent researchers to call it at any time, and it can be customized at any time in the factory?" Oh yes...... The most basic ones in this archive can also be opened up to schools for children who are just learning mathematical logic and runes as teaching materials...... I heard that Mr. Santis has started this course? Oh, and in this way, we may be able to summarize the law of change of spells from level 1 to level 9, and maybe even reverse reason out those spells that have a 'technical black box'......"
So isn't this silly-looking little granddaughter really not crossing?! How many skill points did she spend on "inspiration" and "cutting-edge vision" to reach this level of thinking?
Gawain glanced at Rebecca in almost shock, and then immediately lowered his head and coughed dryly to hide his gaffe: "Ahem, these are all areas that can be applied, Rebecca, Jenny, you must remember that building the foundation and building the framework is the greatest part of all undertakings, although at the beginning you were only sorting out those second-level, first-level, and even apprentice-level magic circles, but as long as these things are used properly, they will burst out with enough power to propel the entire territory forward." ”
Then he added: "What I have given you is a long-term and arduous task, you don't think that it can be completed overnight, and you will think about it slowly when you go back, and at the same time, you don't fall behind in the research of the repulsion array of the new generation of magic energy engines, as well as the compilation of those 'teaching materials'." After all, the power of one or two people is limited, and only by allowing more talents to grow can you complete this task faster. ”
"Yes, we understand." Jenny lowered her head, she didn't question the question of "a third-level mage and a fourth-level rune master, what should I do when I analyze those high-level magic circles in the future", on the one hand, she knew that there were many spells in the world, even if the magic arrays below the third level were summarized and sorted out, it would be an extremely time-consuming work, and she would not come into contact with high-level magic circles in a short time, on the other hand, she knew the essence of rune logic-that was the computational art based on pure mathematical logic, in this temple of mathematics, An individual's spellcasting ability is just a supporting factor, even if it is Miss Viscount, who can only amplify the fireball, she can still calculate the optimization plan of the mid-level or even high-level magic circle!
"Then, this important task is entrusted to you," Gawain leaned back in his chair and looked at the two girls in front of him with antiquating and approving eyes, "I look forward to your results. ”
