Chapter 61: Xu Yi is back
Akali's question was unanswered.
Of course, Xu Yi is not an abyss demon, and it is the first time he has come here.
As for why he was able to let this place open automatically, Xu Yi himself didn't know, how could he answer this question.
After asking a few words, Akali knew that Xu Yi really didn't understand, so he could only give up.
But after finally discovering this place that was inferred to be the core of the formation, Akali obviously wouldn't give up easily.
After the group went in and out a few times, they found that only Xu Yi could open this place, and once the person left, it would be automatically closed, and Akali wanted Xu Yi to stay and help her study together.
However, this request was vetoed by Xu Yi.
He didn't have so much time to stay here to do these researches, whether it was the Sainz Continent or the Demon Cloud Continent, there were a lot of things waiting for him to deal with.
In the end, the result of the discussion was for Akali to lead a team to cooperate with Elder Wendini to study the exposed ruins, and Xu Yi rushed over when necessary to help them open the door to the core.
According to Xu Yi's estimate, judging from the normal progress of research, it would not be possible for Akali and Elder Wendini to make any decent progress in a few years.
And if he wants to really crack the secret of these relics left by the Abyss Demon Clan, he can't do it in his lifetime.
Of course, he really wanted to emulate the Abyss Demon Clan and directly travel to another world through super technical means, but he would not go too far.
It's good to be able to study it, but if he can't study it, he has nothing to lose.
In comparison, the practical problems in front of him are what he values the most.
After being dragged by Akali to accompany her for more than half a month of study, Xu Yi finally set off again. Return to the continent of Sainz after nearly a year of absence.
###
The breeze is blowing, and there is already a hint of heat in the air, which means that the season has already entered the late spring, and it is beginning to stride towards summer.
At this time, Yerogan seemed to have already entered the middle of summer, sweating profusely, even if he wiped it vigorously with a towel. It will be full again in a while.
"Boom-"
A flame burst into the sky, almost enveloping Jerogan entirely.
Fortunately, Yerogen has done this high-strength fire temperature formation experiment more than two hundred times, and he has already had skilled experience, and after sensing the strange magic power fluctuations in the magic array, he has already done a good job of dodging the action, but he has avoided this burst of fire without danger.
However, even then, the few strands of hair thrown out of his forehead were curled up by the burning.
If it hadn't been soaked in water a long time ago, these hairs would have been burned by the flames.
"Damn!" Seeing that the experiment failed again, Jerogan couldn't help but curse viciously. Wipe a handful of sweat again, pick up a large glass of salt water with a little sugar that had been prepared on the table next to him, and pour it in.
If he hadn't replenished salt and sugar in time, I'm afraid he would have fainted directly due to a large amount of dehydration, and how could he maintain his energy to do this experiment.
Glancing at the latest high-powered magic air conditioner on the wall that he had bought only last month, Hierrogan hesitated in his heart, sighed, and took the remote control. The magic air conditioner was turned on.
After a few moments, a cool breeze blew out of the magic air conditioner. Let Jerogan feel refreshed all over.
"Ahh
The hot and cold blows made him sneeze heavily.
Hierrogan knew very well that the safest thing for him to do now was to take a hot shower first to ensure that he would not get sick from it.
But then he still needs to do experiments, even if he takes a shower. It is also an immediate stinky sweat, which is equivalent to washing in vain.
Fortunately, he pays a lot of attention to exercise, and his body is far stronger than that of ordinary magicians, so he doesn't worry about such a problem.
After carefully wiping the sweat from his body with a towel, he approved a towel on his body. Pick up the magic phone box he threw to the other side and dial a number.
"Hey, Hierogen, give me the communication now, is the experiment successful?" An excited voice came from the magic call box.
"Successful fart!" said Jerogan viciously. "Damn Dior, your theory is wrong! I've done more than 200 experiments, but I haven't succeeded in a single one!"
"Impossible!" the voice in the magic phone box immediately became much louder. "My theory has been carefully calculated by me, and it has been proven countless times, how can it be wrong!
"Say I'm not doing it right, then you should go find someone else!" said Jerogan coldly.
Dio, who was on the other side, immediately softened and laughed twice: "No, no, no, I'm just joking." You're the Empire's most famous expert on heat magic circles, how could you be mistaken? Well...... I think...... There must be some minor flaws, but you're pretty close to the success of the experiment, aren't you?"
Hierrogan snorted again.
Although the experiment failed one after another, the results of the experiment did get better and better each time.
Moreover, through more than 200 experiments, he can already be convinced that the cross-induction temperature control theory researched by Dior is indeed extraordinary, allowing him to easily increase the temperature of the flames produced by the high-temperature fire system array by more than ten percent.
In the previous magic system, it was to make the power of a fireball technique increase by ten percent, or even more, which was naturally extraordinary.
Hearing that Hierogen didn't refute, Dio regained his excitement and asked again, "Hey, Jerogen, what do you think...... How long will it take you to succeed?"
"Why? Can't wait?" asked Hierro, coldly.
"It's not that I can't wait, but the military...... Ahem, it's the employer over there who can't wait. If they don't get the results by the end of the month, they will have to pay a third less. ”
Jerogan frowned slightly.
Although Dio was only halfway there, he had already guessed that the employer Dior was talking about should be the Imperial Military Department.
But what is the Imperial Military Department doing so much in the hope of obtaining this high-temperature magic circle?
Although it is said everywhere that the Imperial Military Department has been privately developing military magic machinery all these years, what does this thing he is studying have to do with military magic machinery?
"Even if you don't give it all. I can't do it, I just can't do it. Jerogen replied. "Tell them that if you want to be qualified, you have to be patient. How can I do it so easily on my own, and I'm not a new flying chamber of commerce. ”
Dio was silent for a while, then suddenly lowered his voice and asked, "The ...... Hierogen, are you interested in ......"
"Not interested!" Hierrogan unceremoniously interrupted Dio.
I have long heard that the Imperial Military Department is recruiting magicians everywhere within the empire to assist in the development of military magic machines. Now that Dior has brought it up so mysteriously, combined with what he said before, I am afraid it has something to do with this.
Jerogan had no interest in running to work for the military.
Not to mention that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the Continental Magician Union, and the Mainland Magician Survival and Employment Security Joint Association all lost the magicians to apply for jobs in the military departments of various countries, and if they were to come out, they would be removed from the two major associations, and the risk was too great, even if there were no such risks, Yerogan was not interested in running to serve the imperial military department.
Compared to the obvious restrictions after entering the military department, it is obviously much more comfortable to conduct research freely on your own.
What's more, once you enter the military department, you will definitely conduct research on military magic machinery. You can't study whatever you want like now, it's easy and enjoyable, and you can also take some private work related to research from some magic machinery chambers of commerce from time to time and get a lot of money.
No matter how you look at it, it's much better than joining the military department.
Hearing that Hierrogan was tough, Dio immediately stopped mentioning it with amusement, and moved on to something else.
"That's right, Jerogan. Regarding the previous thing, investing in the Tenniface mine. I'm afraid it's going to be a bit of a problem......"
Hierrogan frowned: "What's the problem?"
The so-called Teniface Mine is not actually located in the territory of the Candela Empire, but in the territory of the Magic Kingdom of Mana.
As for the investment in the Tiniface mine mentioned by Dior, it was the Candela Empire that occupied the land near the mine, and actually auctioned the mine publicly, which attracted a lot of attention.
Earlier Dio said to Jerogen. He knew a well-connected insider who could take a stake in the mine and invite Hierrogan to join him.
However, because the situation had not yet stabilized, the matter of this tender had not been decided.
Unexpectedly, it was only less than a month, and there was a change.
"I got the message. The president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce seems to be coming back soon. ”
Yerogan was stunned: "What does his return have to do with our investment in the mine?"
"Don't you understand?" said Dio, with a wry smile. "Why does the Empire dare to start a war against the Magic Kingdom of Mana? Isn't it because Xu Yi has left the Sainz Continent and the leader of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is not there. Now that he's back, the Empire has concerns about whether to continue attacking the Magic Kingdom of Mana. In case Xu Yi comes back, he will intervene in this, and if he can't do it, this war will not be able to continue. And according to Xu Yi's usual habit, the empire may have to return all the land it occupied before to the Magic Kingdom of Mana, as for the Teniface Mine......"
Jerogan understood.
If the Candela Empire is pressured by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce to return the land it has previously occupied, then the Teniface Mine will certainly be returned as well.
In this way, the investment he and Dior had planned could only come to naught.
"This damn Xu Yi, why did he run back now? If he came back a little later, the armistice between the Empire and the Magic Kingdom of Mana would have been signed. That way, even if he wanted to intervene, the empire would be able to ignore him with confidence. ”
"Not necessarily. In case he has to force the empire to return the land, what do you say the empire will do?"
Jerogen fell silent.
Judging from the examples of previous years, if Xu Yi really put pressure on the Candela Empire on behalf of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, then in the end, the Candela Empire may only agree.
After thinking for a moment, the look on Jerogan's face became very strange.
"Hey, Dior, you say...... Can the big men of the empire really endure it forever?" )
