Chapter 71: The First Space Magic
In order to ensure safety and complete the transaction as soon as possible, Gilman dispatched a group of royal griffins who had been cultivated for many years to deliver supplies, accompanied by a great magician, three high-level magicians, and also to verify on the spot when receiving the camera later.
On Tulum's side, Roman Sagan personally verified the authenticity of the six items.
A week later, Colin got what he wanted, and out of six items, he eliminated Schiller Mora's "Three Questions for Cutting Double Rings and Regression Counting".
And because the camera was too large and heavy, the nine-headed griffons that arrived could not be transported over long distances, and finally had to choose to travel by land, which took nearly a month.
For the time that followed, Colin was almost completely immersed in his studies.
In particular, the "wind nuclear collider" has to say that the wisdom of its predecessors is awe-inspiring.
Burke Mareas, Gilman's late Magister.
Even Roman Sagan bluntly said that many ideas were influenced by it.
Colin himself has done several wind core collision experiments, but none of them have succeeded, not to mention consuming a lot of materials, and almost injuring himself.
……
In mid-November, Thunder City has just come out of the atmosphere of the Fire Festival, and soon it will be the King's birthday, and many places in the city have begun to be arranged in advance.
Colin has a pair of dark circles under his eyes, looking for information in the library.
He closed a copy of "Infrequently Used Coupling Parameters" in his hand, and then sighed.
Colin finally understands why many people can't keep going on the academic path.
Everyone will have bottlenecks, and the ability to solve bottlenecks is where a scholar truly demonstrates his strength.
These days have been the hardest time for him since he crossed over, when there is no progress, people will become very desperate, and when success is in sight, he will not find the last way there, no matter what the state, there will be a sense of anxiety that scratches the ears and cheeks, and it can easily drive people crazy.
Only then did Colin understand why the teacher didn't let his sister participate in this research, which was indeed not a human thing.
If it weren't for the perverted concentration, I'm afraid I would have gone crazy a long time ago.
When the hard-shell bookcase touched the bookshelf, Colin was stunned for a moment, he found that no matter from which angle, there was no way to put the book back in place, after trying a few times, he was annoyed to find that he had found the wrong place, just now when he was holding the book to consult, he unconsciously walked out of the distance, this one-foot-high thick cowhide hard-sealed book, should be placed on the first few rows of higher bookshelves.
He walked back with the book, and after taking a few steps, it suddenly occurred to him that the feeling of the book and the bookshelf just now was so familiar.
Colin didn't have time to find the original bookshelf, so he walked straight to the staircase on this floor, and when he was about to leave the door, he handed the book "Infrequently Used Coupling Parameters" to a staff member.
"Sorry, I forgot where I got this book from, please help me put it back where it came from."
"No problem, Mr. Vane." The staff took the heavy books.
Colin walked quickly down the stairs, ready to leave through the back door, where he could easily get a cab.
However, before he could go out, he saw Eleanor walking towards him with an excited face.
"Mr. Vane, you're here."
"Lady Eleanor?"
"I came to you on purpose, and there is good news, the gramophone has been completed." Eleanor couldn't help but flap her toes twice.
"Done?" Colin was stunned: "It's only been a few days?" ”
"It's been a week, Mr. Wayne, you expected six days, but we took an extra day to test its stability, and Mr. Wald has been testing it for nine hours straight, and the results are perfect."
"Yes." Colin smiled, "That's great. ”
"So we couldn't help the joy in our hearts, and everyone sent me to you, hoping to show you the results as soon as possible."
"Ma'am."
Colin barely squeezed out a smile on his face and said:
"I'm as happy as you are, but I have some other things to take care of for the time being, and I trust your work, now that it's done, let's rest for a few days and get ready for the New Year."
After he finished speaking, he nodded slightly to Eleanor, and left in a hurry without waiting for the other party to answer.
Eleanor's excited expression froze on her face, and her hands were still in the air.
New Year's Celebration?
Did I just not make things clear?
Gramophone!
Why did such an important thing mention the New Year?
Eleanor was stunned for a long time before she gradually recovered, and for a while she didn't know how to go back and explain to the others.
……
……
Two days later.
The third floor of the Mage's Tower.
Spacious inside the laboratory.
Collin's hands were open, and his palms pressed against the two glass covers of an instrument on the table, one of which contained a small square of butter, while the other was empty.
His gaze was steadfast and his hands were steady.
Roman Sagan stood across the table with his hands behind his back, looking at his disciple with a serious expression.
I don't know how long it took, but suddenly there was a ripple in the air.
Then, as if under some unknown force, the corner of the butter began to slowly decompose, and at the same time, a pale yellow substance slowly formed on the originally empty iron plate in another glass cover.
For nearly a minute, Colin sweated profusely and lowered his hands.
The pointer in the center of the instrument is slightly deflected in one direction.
He endured his sleepiness, picked up his pen and wrote in the notebook on the table: "November 18, 9:45:50 a.m., the 182nd test, successful, test target: butter, transfer weight: 4.3 t, test duration: ......"
When he was done, Colin seemed to have used all his strength and sat down on the bench behind him.
Roman Sagan leaned down and looked at it for a long time, then raised his head, and he didn't know whether it was relief or emotion in his voice:
"And you did."
"Yes, teacher, we succeeded." Colin wiped his sweat and grinned.
"Seven months and twenty-one days." Roman sighed: "I set you five years, and you only took less than eight months. ”
Colin said with a look of shame: "However, this magic has more symbolic meaning than practical use, not only does it consume a lot of mental power, but it also has to cooperate with instruments and materials, and the effect is also minimal. ”
"Either way, it's a real piece of space magic." Roman let out a sigh of relief.
Transferring a 4.3 Tucker piece of butter to a distance of less than a meter costs almost all of Colin's mental power, two 15 gold lang worth of black crowstone, and must be coordinated by an improved Wind Core Collider.
No matter how you look at it, it doesn't have much practical significance.
But on the other hand, it was indeed the first known space magic in this world.
It meets all the characteristics of a spell: it requires the magician to cast it himself; Mental drain; Have a unique and repeatable spell model.
Colin smiled: "Having said that, teacher, the most important thing to thank for this success is the Gilmans, without their pioneers and the generosity of Archduke Schulz, I am afraid it will be a long time before I can achieve the current results." ”
"Hehe, that's true."
"But sometimes when I think about it, the gap between us and the Western Continent in terms of elemental research is simply chilling." Colin said heavily.
"This is also the reason why I have always called on everyone to pay attention to elemental research, but unfortunately, we do not have the special environment and historical accumulation of the Western Continent after all, and this situation cannot be reversed by a few people." When Roman mentioned this question, the worry on his face was not hidden in the slightest.
