Chapter 43: In Whose Hands Is the Power?
"What's the problem?" Xu Yi looked at La Masia with interest.
Doing scientific research is never afraid of discovering problems, what I am afraid of is that there are no problems.
La Masia was silent for a moment, pointed to the towering demon nuclear warhead in the distance, and said with a slight hesitation: "Elder, guess...... If this warhead is officially detonated, how much area will it be able to destroy?"
"This should be asked to you, you ask me, how do I answer?" Xu Yi asked with some amusement.
La Masia shook her head, not knowing whether to deny Xu Yi's statement or not knowing how to answer.
After a moment of silence, he sighed and said, "If this warhead is detonated here now, I'm afraid the entire valley will be wiped out, and no one will be able to escape." ”
La Masia glanced at Xu Yi, paused, and added, "Perhaps only magistors like you and Camila, the Elder, have a chance to survive, and the others have no chance of surviving. ”
This valley is located about five kilometers to the west of the main base of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, covering an area of about 60 hectares.
If detonation here can wipe out the entire valley, it means that the impact of the explosion of this magic nuclear warhead is almost close to one square kilometer.
The power of such horror is even comparable to the atomic bomb that was developed in the early days of the earth.
And if measures are not taken to deal with the chaotic magic space left behind, this area will only be inaccessible to the living for a long time, and it will become a completely dead place.
Compared to the extremely serious effects on people due to the residual nuclear radiation after the atomic bomb explosion, this magic nuclear warhead is even more terrifying.
Hearing what La Masia meant, the expression on Xu Yi's face became serious.
"What do you want to say?"
"I want to say......" La Masia shook her head and smiled wryly. "Lord, did we create a terrifying monster with our own hands?"
Hui also did not answer this question. Instead, he was silent for a moment, then pointed at himself.
"La Masia, how much damage do you think I can do in an instant if I use all my strength?"
La Masia was stunned for a moment, and then replied without hesitation: "With your current strength, the destructive power you cause will only be more terrifying than this magic nuclear warhead." ”
"That's right. Xu Yi smiled again. "Look. No matter how terrifying this warhead is, it is only comparable to the destructive power that the Magus can cause, or even slightly inferior. And the Magister has existed on this continent for tens of thousands of years, what are you afraid of?"
"But...... At most, there are only a few dozen Magisters, and this Demon Nuclear Warhead ...... As long as the experiment is successful, we can make hundreds or even thousands!"
"That's what I need. Xu Yizheng said. "I'm going to drive the mages out of the fray, even the Magister, relying on power beyond the Magister. These magic nuclear warheads are just enough for my requirements. As for what you're worried about. I can understand that. It's just La Masia, it's never the power and the weapons themselves that cause the disaster, it's the people who wield them, you know what I mean?"
La Masia was silent for a while, then turned his head to look at the magic nuclear warhead again, and nodded slowly, as if accepting Xu Yi's statement.
However, judging from the responsible expression on his face, he still hadn't fully figured it out.
Xu Yi is not surprised that he would behave like this.
The magic nuclear warhead is such a terrifying thing that can be compared to the Magister. Now that it is in the hands of ordinary people, of course, it will make ordinary people like La Masia have strange emotions in their hearts.
As a matter of fact. It was he, the person who knew the most, who would have this kind of emotion, but the workers and ordinary researchers under his command would not think so much about it at all.
"Studying magic core energy is not just for magic nuclear warheads, but also for weapons and war. Xu Yi patted La Masia's shoulder and comforted: "Actually, if the magic core energy is placed on civilian use, it can play a greater role. ”
"Civil?" Lamacia looked at Xu Yi in confusion.
He studied the magic core energy from the beginning. It is required to be used on the magic nuclear warhead, and the civilian aspect has never been considered.
"Lord Grow, the demon core energy is too violent, it is difficult to release it slowly, I'm afraid it can't be used for civilian use, right?"
"That's just for now. In the future, as long as you continue to continue to study. I believe that I will be able to control such a force with ease. Xu Yi said with a smile.
La Masia nodded slightly, and her mood suddenly felt much lighter.
After explaining a few more precautions to La Masia for the experiment, Xu Yi left the valley.
After coming out of the magic illusion shield, Xu Yi looked back at the valley that didn't seem to have anything unusual on the outside, and slowly shook his head.
When La Masia leaves with the nuclear warhead, all facilities here will be removed.
The research on the magic core energy is very dangerous, and it is not suitable to keep it next to the main base of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, so Xu Yi has long wanted to move it.
Taking advantage of this experiment, Xu also planned to move all of this research department to a large island in the Endless Sea, and use it as the magic core energy research and development center of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
Turning his gaze to the main base of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the distance, Xu Yi fell into deep thought.
It is not only the Demon Core Energy Research Department that will be moved, but also a series of important departments of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
It's just that this relocation doesn't need to be so urgent, or not too urgent.
In case of the news that the New Flying Chamber of Commerce intends to withdraw from the Sainz continent, then I am afraid that the entire continent will be in chaos in an instant.
###
The spring of 3815 in the continental calendar is as usual.
When the warm wind blows across the mainland, all the countries on the mainland start their annual spring ploughing.
If it had been a few decades ago, spring ploughing would have involved almost everyone on the continent, because it was not important to plant a good crop in the right season.
Ploughing, sowing, fertilizing, and so on, each of which requires a lot of human involvement.
Often at this time, even the most noble His Majesty the King and those nobles who are high in the sky will take the initiative to step down from the fields and put on a posture of hard work to set an example and show the importance of spring ploughing.
It is an inevitable custom to have a period when productivity is extremely low, resulting in a serious shortage of food production, and most people can only live in a state of famine all year round.
However, because of the emergence of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, a large number of various farmland magic machines have been brought in, so that the people on the Sainz continent have long since lost a sense of urgency when they are spring ploughing.
Whether it is ploughing the field, sowing seeds, or even fertilizing is handled by the corresponding farmland magic machinery.
Commoners who own land only need to pay a small amount of money to hand over these things to professional farmers' merchants, and they have almost nothing to do with themselves.
And not many civilians are willing to devote this precious time to spring ploughing, after all, it is better to stay in the factory and work honestly than to work in the field, and the daily income is far higher than farming.
In the past, on the Sainz Continent, farming was the fate of the vast majority of people, and there was no distinction between superior and inferior.
But now, if the farmer is not a professional farmer, he will only be looked down upon.
Because only people who have no ability will be reduced to running to farm by themselves and doing this kind of extremely tiring but unprofitable work.
The magical industry is thriving on the continent of Sainz, bringing countless job opportunities.
Everyone on the mainland, as long as they have the heart, can find a suitable job for themselves.
If you don't know anything, you can be the simplest and most basic assembly line worker.
Those who know a little bit about magic machinery may be able to get better paid skilled workers.
And if you still have a certain understanding of magic, you can enter the research part of the major chambers of commerce, maybe a flash of inspiration can bring huge benefits to yourself and the chamber of commerce.
As for those magicians who were high up before, they will no longer continue to wait for the basic security fund of the magician union, and may even starve to death, but are very active in learning all kinds of fresh magic theories, and strive to master enough spiritual knowledge of magic machinery, and strive to become a senior magic mechanical engineer on the famous side.
No one is idle, and no country is idle.
However...... It is true that the Magic Kingdom of Mana is not idle, but it is completely forced.
While other countries on the continent are in full swing for spring ploughing, the Magic Kingdom of Mana is no exception.
However, due to the lack of a large number of farmland magic machinery, the Magic Kingdom of Mana's Agricultural Department was too anxious to fill this part of the gap, so that April was almost over, and there were still large tracts of vacant land in the kingdom that were uncultivated.
Civilians with other jobs disdain the little income provided by the farmland, and farmers who have no job and want to plow find that they have even forgotten how to plow after losing the help of the magic machinery of the farm.
Naturally, the Magic Kingdom of Mana's Agriculture Agency is extremely anxious about this situation, because they know very well that without enough food, there will be no stability and peace in the entire kingdom.
However, the Department of Agriculture could not forcibly arrest people to farm, and even if various measures were taken, they did not solve the problem well.
And just when the Agriculture Department and the Kingdom Council were busy and anxious for spring ploughing, a new mess found the Magic Kingdom of Mana.
At the end of April, large-scale unrest broke out in the three provinces of the Magic Kingdom of Mana at the same time.
The insurgents directly attacked the various local government institutions, shouting that the kingdom would give them back the right to work.
As for the simple reason, it is because a large number of people are unemployed...... (To be continued.) )
