Dipped in some ink, Ma Wei gently pressed the bottom of the bottle against a piece of white paper, and under the stain of ink, a circular magic circle appeared.

The complex and even gorgeous golden lines, the regular and standard arcs, and the magic array, engraved with a large number of outlined lines, are like countless thorns entangled, but they are completely symmetrical, and they are beautiful and incomprehensible.

After just one glance, Ma Wei was deeply fascinated, and it is no exaggeration to say that the magic array engraved at the bottom of the bottle has reached its peak in artistic aura, even if it is the simplest copying, it is not something that ordinary people can do.

"It's beautiful...."

Carefully drying the ink, Ma Wei picked up the paper with both hands, put it in front of the kerosene lamp, and slowly admired it.

"Fat Orange, can you activate it?"

After looking at it for a while, Ma Wei put the paper in front of Fat Tangerine: "Give it a try." ”

"Okay."

Claw pressed the paper, Fat Orange tried to merge the power of the gift into the magic array, it succeeded, the magic array was indeed absorbing the power, but....

There was no reaction at all.

"No, it can't be activated."

"You try the magic circle on the glass bottle again."

"Hmm."

Fat Tangerine used the same method to inject the power of boon into the magic circle at the bottom of the bottle, and this time, the magic circle lit up with a dark blue fluorescence, as if it came to life, and the lines that resembled thorns slowly wriggled slowly, and the light flowed in it, endlessly.

"It has nothing to do with my strength." Fat Tangerine said, "The problem is in the magic circle itself. ”

"Strange..."

Ma Wei carefully compared the two magic arrays, because they were rubbed, the two magic arrays were almost identical, and the difference was imperceptible to the naked eye, if the magic array was so fine, how did the magic array at the bottom of the bottle be successfully made?

The industrial technology of this era is not yet accurate to the nanometer and micron level.

"The problem should be in the material." Fat Tangerine pointed to the magic array at the bottom of the bottle and said, "You see, this magic array is not engraved, but embedded in the bottom of the bottle with some kind of golden solid. ”

"Gold." Ma Wei nodded, he also noticed that the magic array was made of special materials: "Maybe.... The magic circle must be crafted with special materials in order to function properly. ”

For a modern person who has crossed over, it is not difficult to understand that just the well-known electricity has very different conductivity in different environments and materials, and there are more classifications such as light signal and heat conduction.

If you can't even consider this, Ma Wei thinks it's better to just dig a pit and bury yourself, it's not shameful enough....

"It's a pity."

Ma Wei clipped the paper into the Book of Truth and sighed: "If it's a material problem, then it's not something we can solve now, I'll go find a blacksmith in two days, and ask him to make a mold according to the gourd drawing, and try gold, silver, and other materials." ”

"But..."

"We've gained a lot tonight."

"Harvest?" Fat Tangerine glanced at him: "Is it a big gain to find a material problem?" ”

"The material problem may seem trivial, but if you dig deeper, it reveals enough information."

Ma Wei smiled: "The magic array needs the power of grace to operate, and if the power of gift wants to be transmitted normally, it must have special materials, and the combination of the two has very big limitations. ”

"The power of the gods' gifts is not something that ordinary people can have." Fat Orange said: "Only believers favored by the gods can get power, and it is not difficult for these believers to get some special materials at all. ”

"That's right, the power of bounty is very valuable for research."

"What are you doing studying this thing?" Fat Orange looked at him confused: "What can I do if I figure it out?" It is better to find a way to develop the church and make the goddess strong as soon as possible. ”

"It's important to grow the church, but we can't ignore other important things."

Mavi looked at the fireplace, narrowed his eyes, and said, "The gods are like flames, and the believers are coal and firewood, and the more fuel, the more fires will be, right?" ”

“...... What exactly are you trying to say? ”

Ignoring Fat Orange's question, Mavi continued, "The believers burn themselves, giving power to the flame, and the flame gives them heat. ”

"Fire can boil water, cook rice, and barbecue meat, and it is very useful, and human beings can have today's prosperous civilization because they have learned to use fire."

"The flames have allowed humans to survive the cold winters, and they have made machines, farm tools, and weapons, and cultivated fields, so that humans can fight against natural disasters, mountain birds and beasts, but..."

"What human beings really crave is not the flame itself, but the heat brought by the flame, the heat is invisible and intangible, in the process of use, a lot of heat is wasted, the fundamental reason is that human beings do not know how to store heat, this problem seems unimportant, because human beings have enough energy to make flames, to obtain heat, but I think, if you can store the volatilized heat...."

"Storage?!"

Fat Orange's eyes widened, and he understood: "You want to store the power of the gods?!" ”

"Can't you?"

"What a joke!" Fat Orange exclaimed emotionally, "Is this impossible to do at all?" ”

"And how do you use the power of your gifts? Plunder directly from the gods? ”

“......”

"The power of bounty is essentially no different from energy, and since the human body can store it, there must be other ways to do so. Every time the believers pray, the power of faith is generated, and there must be an upper limit to the power storage of the gods, where does the extra power go? The so-called gods are just some kind of transformer. ”

"You... You... You're blasphemy! ”

Ma Wei said silently: "This is not blasphemy, it is their fate. ”

"The gods seem to be high up and out of reach, but in reality?"

"From the day they were born, they were different from human beings, and they had no idea what the world was like in the eyes of human beings, and they were destined to .... Unable to live the life of an ordinary person. ”

"Have you ever thought about the consequences of doing this?"

Fat Tangerine rushed in front of Ma Wei and asked loudly, "Once a machine is invented that can store the power of bounty, the gods will become the most delicious food in the eyes of humans!" Greedy humans will do anything to take advantage of them! Do you want Goddess Yunia to be like that?! ”

"I don't want to.... I certainly don't want to.... But..."

Ma Wei's eyes were empty, and he muttered: "They were born in the era of the second industrial revolution, it is a kind of sadness.... Civilization has awakened, and machines are destined to contradict theocracy, and the only possibility of moderation between them is to merge with each other. ”

"This is geometric truth .... Geometric truth has no emotion to speak of, it is the most rational machine, and it is also inhuman..."

"But the power of the gift is still in the hands of the gods! How can humanity rob them of their power as long as they don't want to? ”

"Lies and deception, human beings will use all means to gain the trust of the gods, and the closer humans are to the throne of the gods, the less reverence they have."

"Just like you?"

"Would you be afraid of a little girl who runs around with a bear all day long, doesn't understand anything, and keeps calling you daddy?" Mavi shook his head: "Yunia is my daughter, at least I think so, if I can, I hope she is not a god, I hope to meet her somewhere else...."

"But you can help her!" Fat Orange roared, "Just don't study any way to store the power of your gifts!" ”

"There is no shortage of madmen and geniuses in this world, and there are some things that I can't avoid if I don't do them..."

Ma Wei said in a sad tone: "The bottle is destined to be broken, Pandora's box is destined to be opened, this is the devil in the hearts of the world who longs for power and wealth, that day will not be too far away, all I can do is to protect Yunia when that day comes, and fulfill the responsibility of a father, this is my mission, from the moment I decided to adopt her, I have been ready to be enlightened." ”
