"Speaking of which, the mana supply of the Demon Motive doesn't have to be attached to the Standard Magic Stone, right?"

While thinking about the connection between the magic stone and the gem mine, Xia Lin suddenly realized a place that he had ignored before, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he muttered excitedly.

He immediately arranged for people to go to the warehouse of the R&D center to send some basic magic materials to the magic test plant for new tests.

What Xia Lin thought of just now that he had overlooked was that the magic motive actually had another cheaper source of magic power, and this source of magic power was actually extremely closely related to the magic stone.

In a gem mine, the output is often a piece of gem ore and magic stone ore, and the magic stone ore needs to be simply cut by the gem craftsman before it can be processed into a finished standard magic stone, which is suitable for all kinds of rune plates.

In this process, there will naturally be a lot of broken or even directly crushed broken magic stones, usually these broken magic stones of a certain size will be processed into secondary magic stones, which are used for the energy supply of some specially customized rune disks.

The rest of the stone that has no polishing value is crushed and processed into magic stone powder, which is sold to mages and alchemists for a small pound of 5 silver mar, or almost 3.57 grams, to be used to mix the rune ink used to draw the spell scroll and the rune lines on the rune plate.

In fact, these magic stone powders have the same ability to store magic power as standard magic stones, but after the standard magic stones are used up, they can still recover some of their magic power after being placed in the natural environment for almost half a year to a year, but the magic stone powder does not have this ability.

Xia Lin aimed at these magic stone powders, wanting to use them to replace the standard magic stones currently used by the magic motive, so Xia Lin went to the gun factory to find the dwarf masters there to use the supporting foundation in the gun factory to process a new type of magic stone switch for the demon end of the new version of the 64.2 type magic motive.

This magic stone switch looks like a cylindrical sleeve that is larger than the shaft end of the magic machine, the opening of the upper end can be just set on the shaft end of the magic machine, the inside is a variety of brackets to enhance the structure and connection performance, there is an opening on the side that can insert a thin iron plate, and there is a filling port similar to the opening of the lid of the oil drum on the same side.

After installing the magic stone switch for the manufacture of magic stone powder on the energy supply end of the new version of the magic stone machine, Xia Lin weighed and filled it with about ten kilograms of magic stone powder through the filling port, and when the filling was completed, he started the magic machine again according to the activation steps.

To Xia Lin's relief, this magic machine did not have any picky eating habits, even the magic power provided by the magic stone powder made it run smoothly, but after running for about ten minutes, the magic machine suddenly seemed to have a convulsion, and the speed began to become faster and slower, and sometimes even the phenomenon of the engine "stopping" directly occurred.

"It's no wonder that generally speaking, people don't use cheaper magic stone powder as a source of magic for rune plates...... This is probably because the magic stone powder does not have the ability to transmit magic power like standard magic stones, and can completely consume the entire magic power, right?"

….

Xia Lin looked at this phenomenon and thought for a moment, and soon realized the crux of the problem.

No matter how delicate the magic stone powder is, it is also independent of each other, and it should not be transmitted between them, so after the magic power of the magic end of the magic motive force is successfully operated after contacting and consuming a part of the magic stone powder contained in the magic stone powder, the magic power provided by the magic stone powder in subsequent contact will fall into an unstable state, and the amount of magic power that the magic end can obtain purely depends on how much magic power is still in the magic stone particles it touches.

This is probably the reason why people in this world usually use standard magic stones instead of cheaper magic stone powder as the energy source of the rune disk.

This problem is actually quite simple to solve, the first idea is to ensure that the magic stone particles that the demon end comes into contact with are uniform and have the existence of magic power through some mechanical structure.

For example, design a device that regularly puffs the magic stone powder into a disc with a curved channel in contact with the end face of the demon donor, and controls the time for the magic stone powder to move forward in the disc to ensure that the magic supply at the end of the demon supply is stable and continuous.

The second line of thought

It is to find a way to make the magic stone powder can produce magic power transmission between them, and turn it into a whole for the demon, which Xia Lin has a ready-made method at hand, that is, to add low-grade magic beast blood to the magic stone powder.

Warcraft blood is used as the base material for blending rune ink, with the effect of conducting magic power, after mixing Warcraft blood with magic stone powder, it should be able to play a continuous effect of demon supply, but what the effect is, Xia Lin is a little difficult to predict.

The low-grade demonic beast blood guide is not good, maybe this idea will not have much gain, otherwise there should be alchemists who have tried to use this method to replace the function of the magic stone before.

However, if it can be successful, it is also a good choice to use Demon Beast Blood and Demon Stone Powder to prepare a suitable energy supply liquid.

Thinking of this, Xia Lin immediately arranged for people to start manufacturing the envisioned energy supply disc, and at the same time began to mix this energy supply liquid, which he thought had some similarities with gasoline.

The turbid demonic beast blood was poured into the wooden barrel, and a sufficient amount of demonic stone powder was mixed into it to form the energy supply liquid that Xia Lin needed, and the manufacturing method was simple and crude.

A bucket of almost ten kilograms of energy supply liquid was poured into the slightly upgraded rubber sealed magic stone switch from before, filled it to the brim, and after carefully checking that there was no leakage, Xia Lin activated the magic machine.

To Xia Lin's surprise, the effect of such an energy supply liquid was actually quite good, and the energy supply liquid mixed with 15 cylinders of low-grade demonic beast blood and almost five hundred grams of demonic stone powder made the demon engine run continuously for several hours, but then the magic engine still had an unknown failure and a shutdown occurred.

And this time the malfunction is not a small problem, along with this magic machine has been completely destroyed, even if the magic stone is used as an energy source again, there is no way to restart.

After carefully probing the problem, Xia Lin found that the rune lines at the end of the magic motive power supply were actually invalid, and he hurriedly found Sophia again and asked her to see what was going on.

Coming to the magic motive, Sophia leaned over and briefly examined it, stretched out her slender white fingers and wiped the traces of demonic beast blood remaining on the end of the motive, turned back to Xia Lin and asked:

….

"This is a magic liquid mixed with the blood of a monster and a magic stone powder as an energy source, right? This is a cost-saving idea, and many adventurers will use the same method to activate the rune disk when they are embarrassed.

However, this liquid of magic energy will have an erosive effect on the rune line, because the rune line of the magic circle also has the same ingredient inside, and if you want to use this magic liquid, you must use Adamantite or Mithril to make a protective shield on the rune line, so that it can not only transmit magic power, but also isolate the influence of magic liquid on the rune line."

[I have known an old book friend for ten years to recommend to me to chase books, @

After Master Holguin made several Mithril shields that looked like artifacts, and attached them to the end of the magic machine and fixed them with nails, Xia Lin restarted the test, this time, the magic machine using the magic liquid as an energy source worked quite smoothly, and the test results were quite satisfactory to Xia Lin.

A ten-kilogram liquid of magic energy can be used for more than four days and five hours before the magic power contained in it is fully consumed.

The current market price of low-grade demonic beast blood has not changed much, it is still a tube of 14 silver mar, the price of magic stone powder is a small pound of 3.57 grams for 5 silver mar, five hundred grams is almost 700 silver mar, the cost of such an energy supply liquid is 910 silver maldo 28 copper bis, after omitting this fraction, the cost of calculating the unit hour of operation of the magic motive machine is 910.28/101, and the result of almost 9 silver mar is obtained.

Originally, the cost per hour of running the magic machine with magic stones was 160 silver mar, but just by changing the energy supply method, the operation cost of the magic machine was saved by almost 95%.

However, this is also the situation that Xia Lin expected, a small pound of magic stone powder is almost 3.57 grams, a standard magic stone is almost 7 to 8 grams, the difference between the two is twice as much, and the price of the former is 1/40 of the latter, so that the cost of calculating the use of magic stone powder is 1/20 of the standard magic stone, and the error is probably the impact of the blood of the magic beast and other losses.

Later, he used the disc that can make the magic stone particles pass through evenly and consume all the mana for a test, and the test results of this idea are not as good as Xia Lin imagined.

It takes a lot of calculations and design to make the magic stone powder stay in the disc for the right amount of time to provide enough magic power, and at the same time, the disc also needs to be processed accurately, and a device for feeding and receiving the magic stone powder is set up on the outside, which is much more troublesome to use than a rough sleeve, and the effect is not as good as that method, Xia Lin gave up this idea after several experiments failed to achieve the desired effect.
