Chapter 489: The Chosen One
In the year 2532 of the new era, in early summer, King Kong Fort.
In the spacious, bright mechanical alchemy room, Wren stood in front of a sturdy metal stand, concentrating, his right hand pressing the blue furnace fixed to the shelf. The furnace was the size of a millstone and resembled a large backpack, covered in thousands of Titan runes.
Each rune is smaller than a sesame seed, connected with a hair-thin engraving that penetrates deep into the furnace.
If you open the furnace, you will find that its internal structure is like a huge labyrinth, which has shrunk countless times and is then crammed into a narrow space. Every part, every pipe, every rune, are arranged in strict accordance with the design, without the slightest error, like a perfect work of art, the production process is at its peak, beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
At the moment, the furnace is running.
The blue light flickered, the electricity sizzled, and there was a subtle roar and tremor, and the high-purity source crystal rod inserted into the core of the furnace was excited by the rune array, and a violent reaction occurred, releasing a huge amount of energy.
This berserk energy was tamed in the rune-controlled transmission, flowing out of a crystalline pipe, driving a huge machine tool covering an area of more than a dozen square meters next to it.
The original power source of the machine was a large rune steam engine, the size of a car, which could be used as the power of a ship, which was dismantled by Wren and used as a power test for a furnace.
Buzz Buzz......
The heavy machine suddenly started, and then ran like a stimulant, the speed became faster and faster, and the amplitude of the vibration became larger and larger, and the six thick screws fixed to the ground were shaken loose, and in the blink of an eye, it exceeded its upper speed limit.
The entire machine chamber was filled with noise, the ground was shaking, and the objects on the tables around it were jumping.
Wren didn't stop and continued to control the furnace's energy.
After all, the specially reinforced machine did not fall apart, withstood the energy infusion, and gradually adapted to such overclocking operation after a few minutes.
The energy of the Titan Forge is also maintained at a stable level.
Wren's face remained unchanged, and he suddenly let go of his right hand pressed against a rune crystal on the furnace, and took a few steps back to observe its reaction.
A few seconds after he let go of his hand, the furnace began to shake.
Blue electricity is scurrying around, and the Titan runes have become extremely unstable? Sometimes it's bright and sometimes it's dark, and even it changes between light and dark several times in a second? Hot, hot gas comes out of it? The surrounding air also resounded with a crackling sound, and lightning swam one after another.
Half a minute later, the Titan Forge had turned into a cloud of dazzling blue light, and the terrifying heat had melted the metal shelves beneath it.
Wren shook his head, his face disappointed.
He unhurriedly opened a portal, grabbed the Titan Forge and threw it into it, and then closed the portal, as if he had practiced dozens or hundreds of times.
Then he went through any gate to the outside of Kongo Castle, and flew to a halt in the air, looking out at a desolate valley a few miles away.
Bang!
A dazzling light exploded in the field of vision, like a flame explosion technique with more than seven rings? Ten seconds later, the shock wave and sound from the explosion arrived almost at the same time? Wake up the more than two hundred fiery dragons who were sleeping in the cave on the cliff wall, and they let out a scream? Soon fell silent.
On the training ground of Fort Kong, a team of spear-winged knights were exercising with the ultramarines? They looked up when they heard the explosion, and when they saw the rain in the sky, everyone's face was stunned, thinking that the boss was doing a magic experiment again.
Everyone has long been accustomed to explosions every once in a while.
Wren opened any door and returned to the mechanical alchemy room, looking at the machine tool that was still slowing down and idling, and the metal bracket that had melted half of it, and sighed helplessly.
"It's hard!"
He sat down, his face aching and tangled.
Since he obtained the knowledge of the Titan Runes and the Thundercast Colossus, it only took him half a year to master the technology of the furnace, and then it took three months to imitate the first Titan Furnace, which was larger than the furnace in the Colossus's body. Since then, he has continued to study and try, relying on the advantages of activated metal and the mechanical professional experience of his previous life, the volume of the furnace has been reduced step by step.
After a dozen rounds of research, he finally shrunk the furnace to the size of a backpack and could be carried by a single person.
That's the limit of what can be done at the moment.
The smaller the size of the furnace, the lower the energy output. No matter how small it is, it won't achieve the effect he wants, whether it is as a power source or weapon energy, the power will be seriously discounted, and the current volume is just right, and a balance between energy level and volume has been reached.
Wren gave this miniature Titan Forge a name called the "Titan Engine".
However, the Titan Engine has a serious problem, that is, the control of the rune array and energy is extremely fine, reaching the millisecond level in time, and the slightest error will quickly accumulate into a bigger error, and eventually lose control and cause a big explosion.
In order to solve the problem of the control system, Wren does not know how much thought was spent.
He studied the knowledge of the Titan runes countless times, thoroughly ate the rune arrays about the furnace, and also tried to introduce rune arrays from other systems, but to no avail.
After consulting with the teacher many times, Wren found that this might not be a problem that the rune array could solve.
Runes are the basis of extraordinary power, it can control all energy, existing in the soul of living beings, transcendents rely on runes to master all kinds of energy and ability, but all living things cannot be as precise and stable as machines, and there is an upper limit to how fast the reaction speed is.
This is an innate limitation of being a creature, and even a Holy Soul Wizard cannot reach the millisecond level of reaction.
People are not cold machines, and mistakes will always happen.
So Wren thought of the control chip in his previous life, he couldn't make a chip, but he had one in his head.
After many attempts, with the phone's multi-core chip function, Wren really controlled the Titan engine and made it run stably.
But once out of control, the Titan engine will soon get out of control.
The best one only lasted twenty seconds, and there was no hope of a solution.
Wren sat there, playing with a boxy piece of metal in his hand, only slightly larger than a gold coin, shiny, with tens of thousands of subtle lines on the surface, and if a 21st-century earthlings were here, they would mistake it for a chip at a glance.
In fact, it's just a piece of scrap metal, and it's of no use.
Let's not say that silicon is not a metal, even if it is a metal, Rennes's activated metal cannot rub out chips with bare hands, not even at the micron level, let alone at the nanometer level.
He only tried once and then gave up, not intending to get along with himself.
It's definitely harder than being a god!
Wren propped his chin on his hand and fell into deep thought. Can't make a chip,That's only a starting chip from the existing chip,He looked at the multi-core chip icon in the mobile phone interface,This chip only exists in his own brain,Is there any way to turn it into a physical object?TVmobile/
But there was no precedent before.
After the mutation of the mobile phone, all kinds of functions only exist in the soul, which is illusory, and only you can see it.
Wren was skeptical, if he opened his head, would he see a mobile phone?
He wasn't so sure.
"No, it's too dangerous. Wren shook his head and put this ridiculous idea behind him, and even if he had a mobile phone chip, it would not be enough, he could only control a Titan engine, and he also lost all kinds of powerful abilities, which outweighed the losses.
"It should start with the elements. ”
His thinking diverged, judging from the past soul transformation and promotion experience, multi-core chips are actually an element, and they can be copied, and Reslyn's mind has copied a mutated mobile phone, which also has the function of multi-core chips.
Is there any way to harden a multi-core chip and extend its capabilities?
Just like the relationship between himself and Reslin, the chip is pinned on something to become an out-of-body incarnation, capable of long-distance control.
Wren was refreshed when he thought of this, and this idea seemed to work!
He immediately opened the Book of a Thousand Souls on his phone and searched for similar elements, but found no matching results. The Book of a Thousand Souls is the most common elemental knowledge book, and if it doesn't have elements recorded on it, it must be very rare or unpopular.
Wren was not discouraged, and there were hundreds of books on the elements in the mobile library.
There are many more books that also mention the elements, but they are not detailed enough and there is a lack of research. Even the gods could not say how many elements the species in the world of Ehrenus could bring, and some polymaths believed that there were far fewer known elements than unknown elements, and it was impossible for mortals to study them thoroughly in their lifetime.
He consulted hundreds of books in half a day, but did not find the right elements.
It gets dark down.
Wren searched and teleported back to Glamorgan, and after eating dinner and continuing to work hard for more than an hour, the wind elf butler suddenly knocked on the door in a hurry, and shouted with joy on his face: "My lord, Her Majesty has sent someone to inform you that the prince is about to be born!"
"I'll go over now. Wren was stunned for a moment and quickly stood up.
Emilys has been pregnant for three years, and her due date is just a few days away. Since half a month ago, he has been teleporting to Red Dragon Fort every day for the night, and he originally thought that he would pass in a while, but he didn't expect to be born now.
Wren teleported to the Red Dragon Castle and immediately felt that the atmosphere in the castle was tense.
Tonight's rainstorm in Kingsland, howling winds, and occasional lightning flashing across the sky illuminate the castle, which is not a common weather in Kangartaro, which has just thawed, and is very unusual, as if it indicates that something unusual is happening.
The faces of the guards standing guard fluctuated, and the private discussions of the maids and servants were heard in the voice of all things, and everyone got the news that the queen was about to give birth to the heir of the kingdom.
"Lord Duke!"
Seeing Wren's figure, the guards on the edge of the teleportation array hurriedly saluted. The four Ultramarines and a squad of Spear Knights also shouted in unison, "Boss!"
Wren remained calm on the surface, nodding in response before opening any door and entering.
He appeared outside Emilys' bedroom, the door closed, and Valogan, Astan, and Dinkraj all waiting anxiously, dangling and fidgeting in front of the door.
"Marquis Reese, how's it going?" Wren asked.
"Lord Duke......" Valrogan was about to salute when he was interrupted by Wren's wave, and quickly replied: "Your Majesty suddenly felt pain a few minutes ago, saying that she was about to give birth, and the two priests invited by your lord are also inside, Mina-san is guarding Your Majesty with a team of female scale-controlled blood guards, there should be no problem." ”
Wren nodded, relieved slightly. The two high-ranking priests were both women, from the Empire's Earth Temple, and had a wealth of experience in delivering babies.
Still, his heart beat uncontrollably.
Emily's bedroom was equipped with a soundproof magic circle, and he couldn't hear the movement inside, and he was a little anxious and nervous.
Thankfully, the mood was over in less than two minutes.
A middle-aged female priest opened the bedroom door and walked out, saw Wren, and saluted: "Congratulations to the Duke, the prince has been born safely and is very healthy, and Your Majesty is fine." ”
"So fast!"
Wren was a little surprised, it was less than ten minutes before and after, right?
He rushed through the door without waiting for the priestess to reply, and saw Emily lying on a luxurious bed, ruddy and holding a small baby in her arms. Another female priest beside the bedside was performing healing spells on her, and the white light fell, and Emily's complexion quickly recovered, not at all like a mother who had just given birth.
"Wren!"
Emily sat up directly, her graceful and luxurious face showed joy, and she said energetically, "You are here." ”
The Soul Eye saw that she was already a fifteenth-level Dragonborn Apostle, and she didn't feel the slightest sense of weakness.
Wren's heart relaxed, after all, the legendary transcendent is not an ordinary person, and it is also very efficient to give birth to children, and his own recovery power is enough to act freely immediately. And there is also high-level priest treatment, and I don't feel much pain at all, it's like going out for a meal and picking up a child and coming back.
But he would still go to the bedside and say softly, "Thank you for your hard work." ”
I was pregnant for three years and governed the country with a big belly, which was really hard!
Emily smiled sweetly, looked down at the child in her arms, and handed him to Wren, "You come and hug him." ”
Wren was a little scrambling to catch this fluttering little life, and held it carefully, for fear that he would hurt him too hard. The newborn child is still wrinkled and not good-looking, but he can already see the outline of his facial features similar to himself, and he must be a beautiful man when he grows up.
"This is my son, the son of flesh and blood!"
Wren's mood is very complicated, but more of it is joy, he has traveled to this world into his fifth year, and finally has a blood relative in the true sense of his own.
Suddenly, the little face that had just fallen asleep twitched, and her brow furrowed, as if she was having a nightmare.
Wren's heart sank.
The Soul Eye saw that in the soul of his son, the Blood Soul Curse was about to move, and it was unleashing evil tentacles to invade the soul where the infection was. This is a catastrophe that every human newborn goes through, being attacked when the soul is at its weakest, and few parents can help.
But Wren is no ordinary father.
"You go out first. He looked at the two high-ranking priests, as well as a group of female scaly guards guarding the bedroom.
When the door closed, and there was only a family of three left in the bedroom, Wren gently placed his son in the cradle next to the bed.
He stared at his sleeping son, his eyes full of love and distress.
In Emilys' puzzled gaze, Wrende's expression became very determined, and then, he pointed to his son in the cradle, and there were indescribable huge magic fluctuations on his body, and said loudly: "Lift the blood soul curse of the designated male baby in front of me!"
