Inside the laboratory.

Stephen looked up at the time, turned and walked into the meditation room and commanded, "Tharing 1." Notify me after 12 hours. ”

"Yes. Master. An icy mechanical voice began.

The prerequisite for this artificial drilling method is to simulate the conditions required for diamond formation, and at the same time, a small particle of seed drill is used as the core, and the external pressure and high temperature force the carbon element to move closer to the seed drill and finally continuously expand the size of the crystal. This is an artificial diamond cultivation method researched by Stephen based on the knowledge of his previous life, and the cost is a little cheaper than the Arcanist's diamond transformation, but the investment in alchemy construction is slightly larger, and it requires more energy to maintain. The metal ball used as a planting container was made of a lot of pure gold, and the inside was synthetic magic steel, and a small circle of silvery-white liquid was a mixture of melted Mithril.

It was because of his research on the artificial drill method that Stephen was nominated to enter the Supreme Arcane Council.

But this is not the fastest and most efficient way, there are really two ways to collect diamonds in the fastest, one is to go deep into the innermost part of the earth elemental plane and look for large diamond crystals in the inner layer of the earth element with more than ten times gravity, and the other is to enter the astral roaming and directly search for the diamond asteroids floating in the astral plane.

But both of them are extremely difficult, the former requires the strength of a demigod or above, and the latter requires the strength of a high-level legend, as well as quite amazing luck.

Without the blessing of Lady Luck, it may be difficult for people to encounter diamond asteroids.

Little by little, time passed.

About twelve hours later, Stephen's figure walked out of the meditation room, and he came to the silver-blue alchemy structure, and gently reached out and stroked out the metal orb. As the central sealing ball gradually opened, Stephen removed the outer graphite structure, and then a diamond about 0.5 centimeters in diameter appeared in front of him.

"It looks like it worked. Stephen picked up the diamond and looked at it carefully.

The diamond had reached gem quality and was growing at a slightly slower rate than Stephen had expected, but it wasn't a big problem because he was going to build an automated 'diamond farm'.

"Taling 1!"

"Bring me up the design of the automated planting. Stephen commanded.

Stephen will set a harvest period, the longer the harvest period, the larger the volume of diamond growth, and Taling 1 will regularly take out the large diamonds that have been planted, and at the same time put small pieces of seed drills into them, and the golem will be responsible for replenishing graphite, as well as the daily maintenance of alchemy structures.

Because this alchemy device is more serious in terms of energy consumption, Stephen must reduce the energy consumption in other places while turning it on.

The Wizard's Tower requires about 30% of its energy output to keep the lab running.

"Looks like it's time to upgrade [Elemental Fusion]. ”

Stephen rubbed his forehead and muttered, "Annihilation matter! Damn! there's only one place I know of that might have annihilation matter!"

"The quagmire of death. ”

"But it's dangerous there!"

The half-plane of the mire of death is gradually being destroyed, and the space there is very unstable, but the probability of generating annihilation matter is high.

With risk comes benefit.

Stephen's ideal place to find annihilation matter was the edge of the void, not the kind of place where there was spatial turbulence in the midst of crumbling and destruction, but it seemed that this was the only place he could go to for now.

"Take out a pound of Mithril from stock. ”

"Adamantite took out 0.5 pounds, and I need the magic steel ingots I made last time. The sand of the astral plane takes about twenty pounds, and the fire elemental crystal nucleus needs seven ......"

A series of bills of materials were reported.

A silvery-white thread appeared in Stephen's palm, and with a wave of his hand, he opened the closed energy barrier, followed by a number of tiny metal parts flying. The alchemy construct in front of him can maintain the operation of seven metal balls at the same time, which means that Stephen can plant seven diamonds at once, but the metal balls are relatively expensive, so he has made one for testing. The Alchemist Hand manipulated the pieces to fit together, and Stephen carefully imprinted rune marks on the inside of the metal ball, and then set the fire elemental crystal nucleus into it, which would steadily provide the high temperature needed to form diamonds.

Half a day passed quickly.

When Stephen walked out of the lab, he looked visibly tired.

The diamond farm is two-thirds complete, and Stephen estimates that it will be completed tomorrow afternoon, and then he will begin the design of the improved diamond golem.

The Diamond Golem is a Legendary Rank Constructed Lifeform.

The main structure is composed of diamond, adamantite gold, magic steel, and legendary quality soul crystals, which are far more expensive than other golem puppets, and have amazing combat power, and at the same time, the resistance to various elemental damage is not low, especially the highest resistance to fire. The Diamond Golem is immune to most spells, it is difficult to destroy by conventional means, even legendary warriors cannot resist head-on, and many times if you want to destroy the Diamond Golem, you can only use its intelligence defects to use tactical slots. However, this is ineffective against a Diamond Golem commanded, and the only way to destroy it head-on is to find a way to destroy it. The Diamond Golem is immune to attacks from normal weapons, and must be a higher quality enchanted weapon to deal damage to it.

The simplest example of this golem's combat power is that it can rub an adult dragon on the ground. (Note: Includes adult red dragons.) ）

However, the Diamond Golem does not have the ability to fight in the air, so it is often used to defend the tower.

"Teacher. Miss Fran sat in the doorway with a book in her arms and stood up when she saw Stephen.

The little girl held up the thick book and pointed to a huge blue whale-like creature drawn on it and asked, "Teacher, what kind of creature is this, and why does it fly in the sky?"

Stephen walked over and picked Miss Fran up and placed her on her lap, glancing at the book and saying, "Astral Whale." ”

"Descendants of the ancient Leviathan. ”

"A primitive giant beast that lives in the astral plane, the small one is about the size of a blue whale, and the large one is dozens of kilometers long. They are born with a spiritual ability field, which can adapt to the environment of the void, and can be regarded as a relatively difficult astral beast to deal with. ”

"Oh. Miss Fran nodded understandingly.

Stephen reached out and took the book, pinched Miss Fran's pink little face, and said, "You haven't reached the time to learn about the astral realm yet." Put the book back in a moment. It's good to read it as an extracurricular book, and you can't leave the main homework behind. ”

"Hmm. Miss Fran nodded obediently and said, "I know." ”

The starting point for stepping into the Astral Plane is the Legendary Realm.

With Miss Fran's current age and strength, it is too early to learn the knowledge of the astral realm.
