Chapter 186 Academic Conference(5)
Su Wen, who returned to his seat, saw the smiling Shirley, and suddenly had a headache, almost trying to find a reason to leave. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ ο½ο½fo
"I can't believe it, this is an invitation from the Grand Magus, and you actually refused so cruelly?" she leaned closer to Su Wen and asked briskly and continuously, "Or refuse in front of everyone like this, aren't you afraid that the Ptolemaic Grand Magister will hate you?" And you even want to be his follower, which is a good thing that even all the Great Magiers and High Knights dare not think of, Suwen Suwen, are you guilty of the intermittent Byorian syndrome that you often had when you were in Tridis, as Uncle Donald described before?" β
The corners of Su Wen's mouth twitched.
What the hell is Donald's name.
"Well, you should be. β
He didn't bother to argue, Su Wen unabashedly expressed his perfunctory attitude towards this Shirley. He really didn't want to have any contact with this normal-looking madman at all, and he would feel uncomfortable even looking at it more. So, he tried to get his attention to the center of the roomβPtolemy, who was levitating in mid-air, explaining the basic theory of the microcontroller to a large group of top magicians.
Shirley seemed to have finally noticed the attitude that Su Wen wanted to express, she pursed her mouth slightly, but did not flinch, but leaned into Su Wen's ear and blew lightly on his neck.
Su Wen turned his head mechanically and stared at her with an expressionless face.
Shirley complained like a coquettish, "I'm talking to you, so be polite." β
"Archmage Ptolemy is also talking to all of us, and as a matter of courtesy, should we respect him?"
"Oh, he, it's okay, it's not interesting anyway. β
β......β
"Suwen Suwen, can you understand what he's saying?"
β......β
"Su Wenqin, are you hungry? I secretly took some snacks from the banquet just now. β
β......β
"Su Wen, I'm almost asleep listening to it, why don't you tell me the story of your world?"
This sentence made Su Wen's arm on the chair stiffen suddenly, and he could no longer maintain his indifference just now, and suddenly turned his head away, staring at Shirley with a vigilant gaze like a poisonous snake.
Shirley, who was munching on a small cookie, looked back at him with innocent eyes and blinked.
It took several seconds for Su Wen to retract his gaze, which seemed to be about to launch a deadly attack at any moment.
"What did Donald say to you?"
"Uncle is very good to me, of course he will tell me everything. Su Wen, you are really the most interesting person I have ever met, whether it is your background or personality, you all fascinate me. β
"I see, thanks for the compliment. β
After Su Wen finished speaking, as if nothing had happened, he continued to concentrate on watching Ptolemy's speech.
In the following time, no matter what Shirley said, Su Wen just acted as if he hadn't heard it.
......
Not exactly the same as Su Wen imagined, Ptolemy, a "computer" with magical characteristics, is similar to the basic principles of science and technology, but it is still very different in many aspects.
For example, the basic parts of the original computer in Su Wen's memory were transistors, and even developed to the later advanced integrated circuits, these tiny semiconductor material parts realized huge logical operations, which can be said to constitute the brick and tile of the high-rise building of electronic computers. But in Ptolemy's design, the basic elements of the "elemental computer" were pure elements β under the influence of his powerful mana, these elements were permanently solidified into a variety of different quantum components, whose particles were much larger than atoms, and the average process was between 100 and 500 nanometers.
When the "Elemental Computer" is in operation, the elemental particles of the demon will perform their duties and become orderly, surging and changing forms on the huge obsidian "circuit board" with regularity, achieving an effect close to that of a transistor and a circuit. The computational part is made up of smaller quantized elements, which have finer diameters and are always in a fixed position, always undergoing binary transformations up to eight digits.
In addition, there is a small magic pool in this computer system, which is full of five different high-concentration elemental particles, which will replenish the "elemental circuit" at any time, but the more important role is to filter and re-output the mixed elements sent from the magic energy pipeline according to the instructions. Su Wen keenly noticed that when Ptolemy only introduced this part lightly, the atmosphere in the meeting hall instantly became extremely high, and this happened to be the last part that the Great Magus introduced.
Su Wen thought about it for a moment and found that this reaction was a matter of course.
Except for those juniors who were brought to see the world, most of the mages present were the great magicians who had lived most of their lives, and some of the mages were already approaching the age of two hundred years, such as the Judge of Keeling. These Duolun elites may be unmatched juniors in front of Ptolemy's Grand Magister, but if you look at the whole country, they are almost all highly respected and well-established guys. Perhaps, as Ptolemy said, because of the civilization gap brought about by the race war, today's new magicians are far less aware of the nature of the world than the old magicians of the past, but that doesn't mean that they are all stupid - almost everyone saw the greatest value in an instant in the invention that Ptolemy showed tonight!
That's the pool of magic that can filter magical energy.
The reason why magic energy has never been able to be popularized has nothing to do with the fact that ordinary people can't learn magic, the only reason is that their cost is too high. From 2,000 years ago to the present, the only magical energy creation that has been popularized is the magic energy bulb, because those magic energy devices that are slightly more complex or require a lot of energy to serve them require a continuous flow of pure elemental input. This is exactly why even magician apprentices with almost no combat ability will have countless people rushing to ask for it, because only those who are gifted with magic can freely extract the elements they need from the magic energy, so those slightly more complex magic creations are basically impossible to run without a magician.
Of course, if there are no magicians, then there is a second option, which is to use expensive dialysis gems to do the work of magicians, but they are even far more expensive than hiring a magic apprentice, so they are not at all accessible to ordinary people.
But now, Ptolemy's Demonic Pool has done the same!
In all of his demonstrations, there was no injection of outside mana at all, and there was no effect of dialysis gems, but the magic energy was indeed parsed into elements and had a stable output!
The strange invention of the "magic energy computer" may have been quietly explained by many magicians present on the surface, but they did not think so in their hearts, and the glorious future in Ptolemy's mouth, the field full of infinite possibilities, is also likely to be sneered at by many people in their hearts, after all, they are all illusory descriptions so far, and the only dry goods they have taken out are only a few low-ring simulation spells that do not hurt; No one is indifferent to the creation that can have a direct impact on the world!
"Archmage, how much does this Demon Pool you just talked about, how much does it cost?"
No sooner had Ptolemy's introduction come to an end than a pot-bellied old magician suddenly stood up and asked an urgent question.
One of the six Magisters present at tonight's academic meeting was the bloated old man Tracy Du Turner, who was also the Economic Examiner of the Imperial Mage Council.
Not only him, but almost everyone was staring at Ptolemy in the center of the field, as if they were equally urgent.
Ptolemy was silent for a moment.
Then, the most relaxed smile of the night suddenly appeared on his face.
"Zero. All the difficulties of the Demon Pool are in these elemental particles, as long as the process and method of making elemental particles are mastered, I believe that all the current great magicians can make it in a steady stream, and all that is needed is their own energy and magic power. However, this Pool of Demons must have an elemental language to work properly, that is, it is part of the whole system, it is inseparable, and fortunately, even if it is the whole system, the factors that affect its cost are limited to the magic process, not the raw materials. β
"It's made from ordinary elements, and it's everywhere. β
Rumble!
This sentence was like a real bombshell, igniting all the oppressive and suffocating atmosphere on the field.
Boil, real boil!
People are no longer satisfied with talking to each other, they are shocked, incredulous, loudly venting the excitement and excitement in their hearts, the originally solemn and sacred academic conference has become as lively as a vegetable market for a while, this kind of uncontrollable scene, I don't know how many years have not appeared in the academic conference. The few young magicians still had a look of confusion on their faces, as if they didn't know what was going on, wondering why the usually respectable and uninhibited elders had suddenly become so excited, was it simply because these things were cheap?
In the center of the venue, Ptolemy, who was quietly hanging in the air, did not stop the boiling, he quietly watched everything.
Su Wen raised his head and looked at the old man who had been rejected by himself, he knew very well in his heart that the current situation was completely under the latter's control. Because, the invention that looked like an artifact, that is, the magic pool that attracted the attention of all the great magicians and could parse magic energy into elements, was what the old man really wanted to come up with tonight.
No wonder Ptolemy stood up confidently, and no wonder he confidently made his invention public, without worrying that it was an embarrassing and failed attempt, because he had the trump card firmly in his hand from beginning to end. The pool, which was connected to the magic calculator and part of its output system, was the real play of the night, and Archmage Ptolemy saved it for almost the end, knowing that if it was thrown, it would cause a powerful shock of the forbidden spell in the crowd.
The archmages scrambled to discuss the elemental pools in the light curtain, exchanging what they had understood in the lecture, and no one took anything Ptolemy's Grand Magus to think of anything they had said, chewing on all their memories for fear of missing something.
Ten minutes passed......
Twenty minutes passed......
The atmosphere of the hustle and bustle on the field did not diminish in the slightest, and it was only then that the Ptolemaic Grand Magister finally descended to the elemental platform and unleashed a ritual spell representing a silence signal on the conference hall.
"It seems that I can end my explanation for today, and you will see more theories about the elemental calculation system and the Accumulation Pool in my academic paper tomorrow. β
"I adjourn, then, the meeting. β
Ptolemy didn't stop any longer, he released the space magic and disappeared into the field, and the remaining magicians did not leave immediately, they discussed in place again, and many people even made a gesture while releasing the demonstration magic, and the meeting room became even more chaotic for a while. At the same time, Su Wen also noticed that the few Magisters on the field, who also had the ability to teleport at any time and anywhere, broke through the space and left in a hurry the next moment after Ptolemy disappeared.
Not tonight, what happened here will be spread throughout Doren!(To be continued.) )
