022 Future Research Projects (Collecting and Investing)
The next morning, after a breakfast carefully prepared by his mother, William returned to his secret base.
He took a bottle of six walnuts out of the freezer, then went to the phone, dialed Uncle Tom Riddle, exchanged greetings, and finally agreed to go to his office on Thursday to help the research team solve the current problem.
By the way, after asking Uncle Tom for a mobile phone, the two ended the hour-long call. At this time, the six walnuts in William's hand had bottomed out, and after he threw the empty box into the trash, he went directly to the entrance of the basement.
The night before, the future Harry and the others used a lockpicking charm to forcibly open the basement door, but the combination lock was not broken and could still be used normally.
I have to say, the magic is really magical.
But this also gave William a lot of headaches, this combination lock can only protect against ordinary bad guys, thieves, robbers, but not wizards.
William looked at the combination lock in front of him, and a sense of humiliation came over him, and he vowed to make a combination lock that could counter the lock-picking spell.
After a sigh, he entered the code to open the basement door. Raise your hand and touch the switch on the wall, and the dark basement will be lit up instantly.
The basement is not very large, about fifty square meters. But the room was surrounded and in the center by tables with various instruments and equipment.
William closed the steel safety door behind him and locked it from the inside. After glancing at the facilities in the house, he walked down the narrow hallway to the deepest area where supplies were piled up.
He came to the liquid oxygen tank that was a head taller than him, and stretched out his hands to move the liquid oxygen tank about half a meter away. At this moment, an old dark green toolbox behind the liquid oxygen tank was revealed.
The box was not very large, eighty centimeters wide and sixty centimeters high. There is also a discarded rotary evaporator on it.
If you don't search carefully, you don't care about this shabby toolbox.
Previously, Harry and Ron also broke the door of the real secret base, and William had no choice but to block the entrance to the secret base with a dilapidated toolbox, and then remake a safer and more hidden entrance when he had time.
William picked up the glass bottle from the rotary evaporator and took out the key hidden at the bottom. Then he put the glass bottle back in place, and only then did he open the toolbox underneath.
Inside the toolbox were a few broken soldering irons and a discarded pile of black wires, and William took a pair of rubber gloves from the workbench next to him and put them on his hands, before squatting down and taking them out and placing them aside.
Then he uncovered a stained triple plank from the bottom, revealing a locked secret door.
William habitually looked back behind him, this time inserting the key he had just taken out, the secret door was opened, and a fingerprint unlock screen that did not belong to this era came into view.
William took off the shoe on his right foot and removed the woolen sock. Then step your bare right foot on this fingerprint unlock screen.
"Ding!"
With a muffled electronic sound, the secret door begins to sink, and then the lights below come on, revealing the metallic staircase.
William put his socks and shoes back on, then bent down and walked in. At the same time, I did not forget to put down the triple plank standing on the inner wall of the toolbox to cover the secret door.
After closing the metal door, William continued to crawl down the ladder for five meters. That's when he actually arrived at his secret base.
The interior of the secret base is three times larger than the basement. But the decoration is not so exquisite, real Syrian style.
No way, this secret base was dug up by William alone. Aside from the necessary support columns, lighting and ventilation systems, and protective systems, William had no energy to renovate.
William habitually made himself a pot of strong tea, and then walked towards the tool table in the center of the secret base. At this time, three different types of robotic arms are running on the tool table. Assembling an energy pistol that can only be seen in science fiction movies.
"Jarvis, is the mana drain test data for Crystal 6 and Crystal 7 out?"
William sat in a chair in front of his workbench and said to a sleeping computer screen.
"Mr. William, Crystal 6 stores 39 units of mana, and the charging time is 1 hour and 31 minutes. 11% mana loss in 24 hours and 57% mana loss in 168 hours...... Crystal 7 stores 35 units of mana and has a charge time of 1 hour and 3 minutes. 8% mana drain in 24 hours, 52% mana in Hearthstone in 168 hours......"
The computer screen lights up, accompanied by an electronic audio explanation, and a series of complex data and pictures appear on the screen.
Looking at the data on the screen, William fell into deep thought, he was not optimistic about the data of this trial.
Crystal No. 6 and Crystal No. 7 are the "Hextech Crystals" that he made from the only material based on the memories in his mind. According to the description in memory, this crystal can store a large amount of mana.
But it got stuck on the crystal where the magic was stored....
Remembering that he couldn't become a wizard, the main reason was that he didn't have magic in his body, and if he had the Hex Technology Crystal, then he could use the loot - the wand to make a Hex wand that he could use.
William felt a little excited in his heart.
With his wand, he could take the next step of his research and see if Muggles could cast spells with a Hex's wand.
If it works, he has one more guarantee. Because William is still very weak now, it is impossible for him to use the Hex gun to solve the problem every time he encounters a wizard.
Using a Hex wand is also a wand, and if you cast a spell in front of a wizard, he is also a wizard, so no one will suspect him.
This way he can travel to the wizarding world and get more information that wizards don't know, as well as those precious magical materials.
But... The stagnation in the development of the magic crystal caused William to feel nameless irritability.
He quickly realized that his current state of mind was not right, and began to take deep breaths to adjust his emotions.
"Jarvis, encrypt and copy the core data into the brain, and delete all the test records this time... New No. 8 Crystal R&D Project..."
"Jarvis, help me order a batch of instruments for the biological research institute, and the consignee and address are still Uncle Tom's suburban ranch."
The research and development of Hex Crystals cannot be stopped, but William now has a very important project, which is to study the biological difference between wizards and Muggles.
Previously, because William didn't have enough wizard samples in his hands, he even thought about secretly collecting Hermione's blood, but finally gave up because of his affection.
Now that he has the corpses of Future Harry and Future Ron in his hands, and the wizard sample is enough, it's time to conduct this research.
