(It's already the Chinese New Year's Eve, I wish you all book friends a happy Year of the Rooster!)

Donner had seen the totemic patterns etched by the dwarves on their sword weapons, a pattern of twisted and incomprehensible curves of the Norgan, a pattern of strange beauty. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info It never occurred to him that there might be some kind of meaning to this strange pattern. But now, Austin's apprentice has inadvertently revealed a shocking secret to Donner!

For the past nine years, Downer has been struggling to find a solution to energy scarcity, in addition to using clockwork energy storage to slowly open the giant wheel of the industrial revolution.

Clockwork batteries can power a variety of machines, but the process of charging them is so complex and inefficient that starting a factory requires a staggering amount of equipment. In addition, due to the limitations of materials and power, it is impossible to use the mainspring battery in large vehicles such as trains and ships. In this case, the transport of machines during the construction of the plant and the commercial logistics in the future are both challenges.

As a result, Donner had never looked for a way to harness the magical radiation - to be able to use the ubiquitous magical elements throughout Middle-earth to power large machines would be to put the wings on industrialization.

You must know that the magical elemental radiation located in the extra dimension is a network of energy created by a super civilization with unknown working principles, but the reserves are unimaginably large, once this energy can be used, its significance is almost equivalent to the invention of a controllable nuclear fusion reactor, which is bound to bring a earth-shaking revolution to this world.

Originally, according to Donner's speculation, since depicting a primitive curve can cause a shock of the magical element, then, perhaps, as long as some form of primitive curve is sent to the extra dimension, it may react with the magical radiation, and then generate thermal energy.

However, in the process of entering an additional dimension from the real space after the metal in the secret realm is pressurized, the geometric changes experienced are extremely complex, and it requires the development of high-dimensional topology and chaos science to the extent of extreme development in order to peek into the laws.

That is to say, under the existing conditions, it is not possible to enter the extra-dimensional observation, nor is it possible to send any known geometry into the extra-dimension through the law of change between dimensions. Doing either of these two would require basic science to be developed far beyond the Earth's level.

However, now, Donner saw a glimmer of light in this secret copper warm pearl - according to Austin's description, the apprentice under his command just squeezed the dwarf totem pattern in the real world into the extra dimension, and through a series of topological changes, the magic gold pattern formed in the extra dimension was actually able to stimulate heat with the magic element.

This discovery is a coincidence, but the phenomenon of the dwarf totem pattern and the magical element co-excitation itself is definitely not a coincidence!

Donner didn't know the origin of the dwarven totem until he met Cynthia and Grunada, but he vaguely felt that it might have something to do with the mysterious dwarven master.

It is likely that tens of millions of years ago, someone left this mysterious mapping pattern that can be used to "steal electricity" to the dwarves, but the dwarves did not know its meaning and have always worshiped it as a mysterious totem. It's like they know the cultivation method of Azure Douqi, but they have never succeeded in cultivating it.

After listening to Austin's description, Donner still had a trace of doubt, but when Lisa recited the spell, the temperature of the Secret Copper Warm Bead increased significantly, Donner confirmed it: the activity of the magic element was positively correlated with the temperature of the Secret Copper Warm Bead, which perfectly proved that the dwarf totem pattern that disappeared on the surface of the Secret Copper Bead was producing a wonderful co-excitation reaction with the radiation of the magic element in the extra dimension.

At this time, the temperature of the secret copper warm bead is about fifty or sixty degrees, and it is still very difficult to use it to do work to drive the machine. However, this secret copper bead is only a naturalist apprentice's test of the waters, and the dwarven totems he depicts may not be accurate, and the materials used are too unsophisticated, and the skill of drawing magic gold curves may not be high.

All in all, Donner is confident that he can use this topology to make a magic energy heat source that can be used.

Compared to this incident, whether it is the New Year, or the assassination of Simmons, the King of Thorns, it is not worth mentioning.

Thinking of this, Donner turned to look at Lucia and said apologetically, "I need to go back to Misty Town." ”

......

Half an hour later, Austin rode out of the north gate of Coenas and galloped in the direction of Pamplo Province, escorted by more than a thousand royal knights.

Sitting on a bumpy horse, Austin felt like he was in a dream. The terrifying royal knights in front of them, dressed in silver armor, traveled so excitedly just to pick up an apprentice in Pampelo Academy.

No matter how much his imagination worked, Austin couldn't guess why the Duke would attach so much importance to this little discovery. On the way to Kornass, he also felt that compared to the magic elements found by Todd, the Secret Copper Warm Bead was simply not worth mentioning. Now it seems that he was completely wrong.

When the Royal Knights' soldiers and horses disappeared at the north gate of Coennas, three carriages followed. When the guards guarding the gate saw the queen's car decorated with poppie articles, they hurriedly half-knelt on the ground and sent the queen out of the city.

It wasn't until the three carriages were also far away that the guards began to whisper, presumably regretting the stupidity of Simmons, King of the Thorn Empire. In their opinion, Her Majesty the Empress and the Royal Knights left and went out of the city before and after, which must have something to do with the assassination that took place on the banks of the Boer River last night.

......

The carriage galloped for a day and two nights, and arrived at the town of Mist in the north of Santan Province in the last morning of the last day of the 643rd year of the Faimon calendar.

After nine years of uninterrupted construction, Misty Town is no longer what it used to be. What was once a dusty dirt road is now a neat and clean concrete street, flanked by evergreen broadleaf trees and conspicuous shop signs.

The whole town has changed from the layout of one street running north and south to the scale of more than a dozen streets in vertical and horizontal directions, with beautiful stone buildings between the staggered streets, and huge road name signs erected in the middle of each intersection.

Even more conspicuous than these signs are the windmills that dot the town. In the early morning north wind, the fan blades of those windmills rotate without exception, adding vitality to the quiet scenery of the town.

In the center of the town, the location of the two-story wooden building where Donner originally stayed, the town office of Misty Town, which was once occupied by Wesley, has also been bulldozed and rebuilt. The eighteen-story reinforced concrete building, completed in the autumn of 643, is now a landmark of the town.

When Lisa and Alex stepped out of the carriage, their eyes were all drawn to the "skyscraper". These two men are well-informed from any angle, but in front of this miraculous building, they can't help but show a look of surprise.
