Jebel Danner during the festival is the busiest time of the year.

Artists from all over the kingdom gathered from all directions, and the camps they lived in were densely packed along the shore of the lake, and when viewed from the sky, it looked like there was an annexed city along the shore.

On the island, it is crowded and bustling every day during the day, and this situation also makes the Municipal Affairs Bureau make temporary regulations for the horse-drawn carriages in the city, stipulating that it is not necessary to travel in the city by horse-drawn carriage during the art festival, and the corresponding identity needs to be matched, which makes the carriages and horses on the streets of Jebel Danna greatly reduced, greatly reducing the traffic pressure in the city during the art festival. And in this context, the carriages that can still run through the streets of Jebel Danna at such times are all big people.

Delvik, for example, has his carriage running down the streets right now.

It was a two-rider carriage with the front door open, and there were three people sitting in the carriage, namely Delvik, Norman, and Abel, and Jason, the big apprentice of Delvik, was now sitting in front with the groom.

The city of Jebel Dana is very well built, the main roads are paved with bluestone slabs, very smooth, the carriage is very stable on it, there is no bump, and the carriage has also been specially dampened, so it is more comfortable to sit up. In such a comfortable carriage, listening to the bustling flow of people outside and the rhythmic sound of horses' hooves, Abel, who had not been able to rest well for two days, had his eyes closed unconsciously, his chest rose and fell slightly, and he dozed off.

Delvik's mental state was no better than Abel's, and he should have dozed off, but his eyelids were half-drooping, he just didn't fall asleep, and occasionally glanced at Norman on the side, like a thief.

The city council only invited him to attend, and Norman and Abel were originally not used, but he found a reason to pull them in.

He provided so many materials for free in the past two days, and spent so much energy, but he didn't see the fart, which made Delvik very dissatisfied, and felt that he had lost a lot. Delvik, who had this idea, also thought about taking advantage of it, but before he could figure out how to do it, the city council came.

He couldn't leave the people from the City Council alone, but he was afraid that the two would run away, so he simply found an excuse to bring the two of them together, and slowly figured out how to pry out the secrets of the Richardson family from the mouths of these two people along the way.

Norman didn't know what Delvik was thinking about yet, and he was having fun with his new tools.

Magic Pool 1.0 is now under his clothes, and he is constantly injecting magic into it, testing the performance data of Magic Pool 1.0.

If it was a normal mage, even if there was such a thing as Mana Pool 1.0, they would not be able to do anything else after infusing all the mana in their own sea of mana. At most, I will meditate temporarily, give birth to some magic power and then infuse it in, and then I have to wait for a day or two, and only after my spirit recovers can I continue to meditate to generate magic power and inject magic power, and it will take several days or even ten days and months to infuse enough magic power to detect the upper limit of mana storage in Mana Pool 1.0.

But Norman is different, in the time between the completion of Mana Pool 1.0 and their current carriage ride to the city center, he has poured as much mana into Mana Pool 1.0 as his two seas of mana, and he is still infusing it.

Thanks to the effect of the Heart Sutra, he can meditate and practice anytime and anywhere, and he can also rotate between mental powers to rest and regain his energy, so he doesn't have to waste time waiting like other mages.

In addition, Norman's mental power is far higher than his mana capacity, and most of the mana generated during his meditation in the past was used to expand the sea of mana, and it was lost in vain to the Endless Land. Now he gave up on expanding the sea of magic for the time being, and whenever the sea of magic was full, he would send the magic power into the magic pool, and then meditate at the same time to generate the magic power, so that he would not waste a little magic power, and after infusing the magic power of the two magic seas, the spirit he used to meditate could continue to meditate.

The total amount of mana in Norman's two seas of mana is not the upper limit of mana pool 1.0, and he can continue to pour mana into the mana pool unobstructed, and he does not notice any instability in the mana pool, which means that these magic powers have not yet touched the upper limit of mana pool 1.0.

Stability is good, Norman thought.

However, the stability of the mana pool is not always so good, and there have been cases of stability anomalies in between, which involves another piece of data observed by Norman in the mana pool - the mana input rate.

In the process of inputting mana, Norman once tried to input all the mana in his sea of mana into the mana pool, but as soon as he did so, he felt the mana pool 1.0 from his skin began to heat up in a straight line, and the intense heat even made his current inhuman body feel burning, it should have reached a temperature that could boil water, and the next moment it was afraid that it would not explode, which made Norman so frightened that he quickly stopped his reckless actions. Once he stopped, he noticed that the temperature of the mana pool had dropped rapidly again, and the structure had stabilized again.

Obviously, his just attempt to infuse all of his magic power into it was the cause of the anomaly in the mana pool.

Norman then conducted some more experiments, and finally tested that there is a maximum rate at which mana enters the mana pool 1.0, and if this mana input limit is exceeded, the mana pool will start to become unstable. However, since he was in the carriage and Delvik and Able were by his side, Norman could neither take notes nor communicate with the Templars, so it was impossible to calculate the exact upper limit of the rate for the time being.

I just don't know if there is a cap on the mana output rate, and if so, will the cap on the mana output rate have any effect on the casting of spells?

Norman thought about it by inference.

But also because of the relationship between the people around him, he couldn't put his guesses into practice and experiments, so he could only endure it first.

For the specific information of the mana pool 1.0, Norman has measured these two things so far, and more content is still being explored, and he needs to communicate with the Knights Templar, and at present, he can only continue to meditate and generate mana, while pouring mana into the mana pool, temporarily thinking about detecting the upper limit of mana storage in mana pool 1.0.

This is a very boring process, and there is no one around to speak, and the two people in the car are closing their eyes to recuperate, so Norman thinks of Chen Qinghe with a pour.

Chen Qinghe has not contacted them.

In the middle, the Little Chrysanthemum Art Troupe sent someone to Delvik and wanted to invite Norman back to rehearse with them in music, but Norman, who was at a critical juncture in the development of the magic pool, naturally refused, but although he did not go back, but from the mouth of the person from the Little Chrysanthemum Art Troupe, Norman also knew that Chen Qinghe had not been back since he came to Jebel Danner on the first day.

Where did Chen Qinghe go? Did he encounter any trouble? But he was a dragon clan, at least a four-star white-robed mage-level powerhouse, what kind of trouble could stump him? Moreover, if he really encountered trouble and made a big fight, with his strength, the movement he created should be able to be noticed by the entire city, but although Jebel Danner was lively in the past two days, he hadn't heard of anything unusual.

Norman couldn't guess what happened to Chen Qinghe after thinking about it for a long time, he only knew that he was inexplicably free - well, in fact, he was free before, Chen Qinghe didn't restrict his actions too much, but nominally the two were still kidnappers and captives. And now, the kidnapper has suddenly disappeared, and he, the captive, is truly free......

The carriage carried the trio of people of different states through the streets of Jebel Danna, and finally arrived at their destination, the city center.

Located in the heart of Jebel Denna, the event center occupies a vast area, with a large square at the entrance, on which stands a huge metal statue three or four stories high, glittering in the sun.

In addition to this large statue, there are many small statues scattered in this square, and there are still a large number of tourists wandering in the square at the moment, some of them are passing through the square to enter the buildings in the middle, some are staying in the square, stopping to admire the statues one by one, and some are pushing the statues themselves to come to the exhibition.

"Teacher, it's here. ”

The carriage stopped on one side of the square, and Jason's voice came from outside, beckoning the men in the carriage to come down.

Delvik, who had been silently thinking about his thoughts, answered, Norman woke up Abel, who had fallen asleep, and the three of them got out of the carriage.

As you can see, this is a special parking place, surrounded by horse-drawn carriages.

In Jebel Danner, the people who can travel by horse-drawn carriage are all big people, which means that there are many big people gathered here.

"Let's go. ”

Delvik greeted, and the group walked across the plaza into the building in the back.

The City Center of Jebel Danner is a complex of buildings with special art galleries, music halls, statue halls, etc., which can be said to be the art center of the entire north, a holy place for countless artists, and the most lively place in Jebel Danner every year.

Today, Delvik was invited by the Municipal Administration to serve as a judge, but the embarrassing thing is that there is no special building hall or alchemy hall in the city activity center: the former is because it is not in the stream, blacksmiths are not related to art in the eyes of most people, Jebel Danner looks down on them, masters like Delvik may be an exception, but it is too few, and one hand can count them; the latter is because almost all alchemists are mages, and alchemy is much more closed than other art categories, and each alchemy scheme is a precious unique skill, and no one wants to share it with others for free, and alchemists are relatively inferior to Jebel Danner。

So Delvik was not invited to be a judge for building or alchemy today, but inexplicably served as a judge for a music exhibition - Delvik is a master-level figure after all, and it is really inappropriate not to invite him to this kind of event, but painting, carving, and other things that are too professional for him to say anything about iron, and it will not be good to make a fool of himself at that time.

And the music is the most suitable, and he can always tell if it's good or not, right? So Delvik somehow became one of the judges of the music exhibition.

There were several halls in the music hall in the city center, and Delvik and the others were directed to Hall 1 when they entered, and the staff here did not say anything about Delvik taking a few unrelated personnel with him, and did not say that they were not allowed to enter or anything, and after entering Hall 1, Norman knew why.

Concert Hall 1 is very large, rectangular, with a stage at the end and seats below, and the whole hall is very deep, and there is a second floor on both sides, and there are seats on it, but now at a glance, there are no half people in those places, everyone sits on the first floor.

At a cursory glance, there are about a thousand seats in this hall, compared to the number of seats, there are not many people sitting in it now, relatively very few, not even half of them are seated, obviously even if it is Jebel Danner, there are not too many people who are qualified to be elected as judges of the music exhibition, and such empty seats should be why the staff here do not prevent Delvik from bringing people in.

The staff member of the Municipal Affairs Bureau led them in, led them all the way, and finally arranged for them to sit down on the far left of the eighth row.

"Mr. Delvik, this is your seat, and if there is nothing to do, then I will leave first. ”

After the staff finished speaking, they saw that Delvik had no other requirements and left.

Norman looked around and saw that the position was not good, arguably the most cornered one.

"Obviously, our Mr. Delvik is just here to fill the numbers. ”

Lancelot said in due time.

He was now waiting for Norman's experimental data report, and their next work would revolve around this, but Norman couldn't find a chance to report it now, so he could only put down the magic pool project for the time being and talk to Norman about something else.

Norman nodded in agreement, and sat down.

The two people sitting in front of them seemed to be also judges, and they took the initiative to say hello after seeing Delvik coming, and also brought several people, but after exchanging information, they learned that Delvik was an iron striker and not a musician, and the original enthusiastic face immediately cooled down, and the words were gone, and they turned their heads back again, just exchanging musical things with each other, and never turned around again.

Delvik may have a high status among those who visited him exclusively, but he was really nothing in the eyes of these music masters.
