371. Technical difficulties

The day after returning to Island 33, Li Nuo threw himself into his work.

One of his tasks is to work with Noreen and Dinas to make the Mechanic.

Considering that the capacitive robot spirit pays too much attention to lightning energy damage, Li Nuo decided to develop several more combat machine spirits that are highly offensive and have complementary damage attributes to the capacitor package machine spirit.

The power of the capacitor package machine spirit comes from its internal high-powered lightning energy, which is an attack mode of "large amount of energy storage + concentrated energy release".

According to this model, as long as he finds a magic container to store a specific amount of energy, and adds a magic circle that quickly releases energy, Li Nuo can create a combat machine spirit of the same type with different attributes.

Li Nuo and Nolin discussed the research path, and the two finally came to the conclusion:

First, Nolin developed other "capacitor packs" that stored fire, wind, rock, soil, and death energy based on the prototype of the capacitor pack machine, and then Li Nuo used deconstruction to convert the scientific and technological drawings of these new "capacitor packets" into alchemy drawings to create new machine spirits.

It's complicated to say, but it's actually okay to do.

After the R&D matter was lost to Noreen, there was only one problem for Li Nuo.

That is, how to convert a large amount of soul energy into the magical energy you need.

His elemental energy reactor can convert soul energy into lightning energy.

His magic arc furnace can convert soul energy and thunder energy into flame energy.

This has solved the problem of obtaining two kinds of magical energy, so how can the remaining magical energy such as rock and soil, wind system, death, natural energy and deep sea magic be obtained stably and in large quantities?

The first thing that Li Nuo thought of was to buy a magic circle to convert energy in batches from the outside.

But after Selena inquired, she soon sent news that was not going well.

"That's right, Jarvis. The Unas ring divides the energy conversion efficiency into 6 levels. ”

In Li Nuo's study, Selena handed over the materials she had collected, and said:

"The energy conversion efficiency of level 1 does not exceed 1:10, that is, 1 point of soul energy is converted into 10 points of magic energy, and the conversion ratio of level 2 is not more than 1:100, and so on, the conversion ratio of level 5 does not exceed 1:100,000 per second. Level 6 energy conversion circles, especially those with a conversion ratio of more than 100,000 points. The operation cycle of each level of the circle is 1 hour, and the soul energy consumption of a single operation is 1000 points.

"The energy conversion circles that can circulate in the market are all level 1 and level 2.

"Level 3 energy conversion circle, each wizard force is limited by the law, and it is easy not to sell it to the outside world, and we can still buy it by reaching a contract with the wizard force.

"However, we can't buy level 4, 5, and 6 energy conversion circles at all. Because the magical materials they use, such as the infusion of Mithril, are regulated by the Ministry of Magic. ”

Selena took a sip from her teacup and continued:

"The blueprints of energy conversion circles above level 4 are also magic items that are closely monitored. If we can't buy the finished magic circle, and we can't buy the blueprints and magic materials we need, the only way we can do it is to ask a wizard to help. Have wizards of different factions cast spells on a continuous basis, converting soul energy into specific magical energy and then storing it. This is the choice of the vast majority of wizards when preparing for magical energy. However, it is too unsafe to do so..."

Selena's tone was filled with concern.

The Unas Ring is very, very strict in controlling the circulation of the energy conversion circle.

As long as you pinch the source of a specific magic material, you can control all wizarding forces and wizards in an entire industrial chain.

Selena, as the vice president of the Deep Sea Branch, could try to find a level 3 or even level 4 Deep Sea Magic Transformation Circle for Li Nuo.

But for other types of magical energy, she couldn't do anything about it.

If you can't find a circle of level 4 and above with a high conversion efficiency, then it means that the progress of owning the secondary plane is greatly delayed.

After reading the information collected by Selena, Li Nuo thought for a moment and said:

"We can't involve other wizards. I'll figure out how to convert soul energy in batches. You can help me bring the level 3 deep sea magic transformation circle first. ”

Selena nodded:

"Okay, no problem. If it's just a level 3 deep sea magic transformation circle, I can call the shots myself, and Ronk won't know about it. ”

The two talked about the details, and then Selena got up and left.

Li Nuo looked at the clear sea outside the window and decided to go to his mentor for help.

When facing the threat from the Pomida family and the Larond Rock Bone, Li Nuo had already tied Professor Erica to his battle line with lightning magic stones and non-metallic ores.

With this foundation of trust, Li Nuo believes that the other party will be a better partner to work with.

Furthermore, the fact that he privately owns the secondary plane does not mean that he is separated from the "Silent Maiden".

Li Nuo will not let people who are not in the inner circle know that he has a secondary plane.

In Professor Erica's eyes, she will always be a mysterious wizard descendant, not a second-dimensional existence.

In this case, Li Nuo can still continue to be promoted, and then serve as the mentor of "Silent Girl" to share Professor Erica's worries.

"I'll have to come up with a good excuse for Professor Erica to lend me her energy conversion circle, lest she associate the stars that will appear in the future with me."

In his contemplation, Li Nuo silently recites "Enter the Court of Silence".

Consciousness ascends, through the darkness, into the stars filled with purple mist.

In the blink of an eye, Li Nuo was already in the second plane managed by Professor Erica.

Li Nuo looked around, his gaze swept over the indigo forest, and his eyes flickered slightly.

During his time with the Assassination Angel, he had asked the other party what was the core of the plane behind the "Silent Girl"?

The Assassination Angel failed to answer this question and only came up with several speculations, each of which was uncertain.

This is normal.

Even if it is the famous Supreme Star Palace, it is only a drop in the ocean compared to the long history of the universe.

There are many, many plane cores roaming the universe, and the assassination angel only knows about the contact with the Supreme Star Palace, not all the plane cores.

However, who is the core of the plane behind the "Silent Girl", this is no longer the point, the assassination angel doesn't care, and Li Nuo naturally doesn't care.

There will always be a chance to know in the future.

Li Nuo put aside the doubts in his mind and walked towards Professor Erica's study.

After about an hour, Lenovo's consciousness left the Court of Silence and returned to Island 33.

He opened his eyes in the chair, took a pen and paper to write and draw, and did a little calculation, while thinking to himself:

"Professor Erica promised to lend me 15 Level 3 Energy Transformation Circles. It is conservatively estimated that these 15 magic circles can convert more than 360,000 soul energy points per day, thus bringing me a thousand times the total amount of soul energy.

"The conversion speed of 360,000 soul energy per day sounds fast, but it is only 360 million magic energy per day, which is still a drop in the bucket compared to the 300 billion magic energy required to build a sub-plane."

Li Nuo scratched his head.

The advantage of converting circles is that they save the wizard's energy and do not need to cast spells manually.

But this conversion efficiency is not as good as his own spell casting, manually converting soul energy...

But what Li Nuo lacks now is not soul energy, but time!

He had to spend his time crafting the Machine, and he couldn't waste it on energy conversion that could be done by the circle.

"That doesn't seem to be the way to go. I'll still have to use "Shaping Energy" to create a spell like "Meta Reactor Summoning". In this way, we can ensure efficiency without wasting soul energy. ”

Li Nuo rubbed his chin and decided to go underground and work hard to break through the current technical difficulties as soon as possible.

It just so happened that Dinas cut a fruit bowl for him and sent it to the study.

Dinas put down the plate on the table, glanced at the document in front of Li Nuo, and said while chewing the fruit slices:

"Do you want me to go to Professor Lamp for help?" Professor Lamp" has a lot of energy conversion circles that are not used. ”

Li Nuo was stunned:

"Don't use the transformation circle?" Is the professor so rich? ”

Dinas sat down against Leno and said with a smile:

"It's not that she's rich, it's that she's often invited to join teams exploring magical ruins. The wizards in this kind of team are not short of soul energy, nor are they short of money. They all use magic materials and energy conversion circles as bargaining chips or as rewards for tasks. After a long time, there were more exploration teams participating, and Professor "Lamp" piled up a lot of magic circles. But we are reborn witches, and we don't need magical energy that is not reincarnated magic, so the circles that are subject to circulation control have to be piled up there. ”

Li Nuo thought about it after hearing it, and it seemed that it was really such a truth.

Reborn witches have little offensive means and can only be used as a support when participating in expeditions.

Whether it is in the game played in the pre-world or in the current world, characters like "wet nurses" generally have "subsistence", or "subsidies".

According to Dinas, in the high-end wizard expedition team, the traditional practice is to stuff the energy conversion circle into the "wet nurse" as a subsidy...

Li Nuo's eyes lit up slightly, and with the "lamp" to teach his attainments in the nurse industry, there will definitely be many, many transformation circles around him.

If you borrow the circle from her, you might be able to do it!

Leno and Dinas discussed it for a while, and asked the other party to help him talk to Professor Lamp.

Whether it is spending money, paying for soul energy or rebirth magic, Li Nuo can accept it.

Dinas walked briskly away, going to her study to contact the professor.

Li Nuo went underground to explore spells and make mechanical spirits.

The time came to the noon of the day.

Dinas has good news for Leno.

Professor Lamp agreed to lend Li Nuo the Conversion Circle, and also provided a list for Li Nuo to choose from.

Li Nuo needs to pay a deposit of gold coins and soul energy for this, and he also has to pay rent every six months.

The rent that Professor "Lamp" asks for is not gold coins and soul energy, but rebirth magic.

It is worth noting that Professor "Lamp" has a relatively high-end product such as a level 4 energy conversion circle, and it has a complete set of attributes, which can convert soul energy into all magical energy except for spell-breaking energy.

For every level 4 energy conversion circle that Li Nuo rents, he has to bring 4,000 points of rebirth magic to Professor "Lamp" within half a year.

The more you rent, the more reincarnation magic you need to hand in in the future.

The specific amount of rent depends on how much reincarnation magic Li Nuo can get in half a year.

Li Nuo pulled up his personal panel and looked at it.

Going to the Shadow Zone to toss the exiled city of the Dark Dead Magic Realm brought him about 2,000 points of rebirth magic.

Go to the Gathering City to destroy the lair of the heirs of the Blood Sun God Seal, and contribute about 4,000 points of rebirth magic.

went to the Necronomicon Sect to prostitute soul energy, and Li Nuo gained nearly 30,000 points of rebirth magic power.

That's right, 30,000 points.

More than 25,000 of them came from escaping from under the eyes of the Metal Ancestor Dragon.

Obviously, the act of stealing the gem chest with the help of the "Veil of the World" is also listed as a dangerous move of nine deaths, and the magic of rebirth can be harvested normally.

Of course, the price of this harvest is that Li Nuo's "hatred value" has exploded, reaching tens of millions of points.

Regardless of the "hatred value", Li Nuo only had one thing in mind:

In the future, he will use the "Veil of the Next World (Imitation)" to die in the Recovery City, will he also be able to reap the magic of rebirth?

Even, steal the gem chest again, and steal another batch of 3 billion soul energy prepared by the metal progenitor?

Li Nuo took a slight breath and had a conclusion in his heart.

"Dinas, how much reincarnation magic do you have now?"

Dinas closed her eyes and looked at her own ocean of spirit.

"Hmm... Counting the 25,000 reincarnation mana I sucked from you after we returned to Island 33 yesterday... I now have a total of 37,000 reincarnation mana, which is enough for us to rent 9 level 4 energy conversion circles for half a year. ”

Li Nuo thought about it for a while and said:

"So be it. I took my deposit and went to Professor "Lamp" to rent 2 of each of the 4 levels of energy conversion circles of the three systems of rock and soil, wind system, and nature. ”

"Okay~ I'll go."

Dinas received the gold coins and soul gems given by Li Nuo, and went to the study to contact the professor.

After that, things went smoothly.

Li Nuo obtained 15 Level 3 magic circles and 6 Level 4 magic circles from Professor Erica and Professor "Lamp", and arranged the energy conversion room on the fourth basement floor.

Selena brought Li Nuo 5 level 3 deep sea magic transformation circles at one time.

Due to the small amount of deep sea magic used in the construction of the sub-plane, these 5 level 3 circles are sufficient.

After three days of hard work, the basic construction of the energy conversion room on the fourth basement floor was completed.

When Noreen took over the control of the conversion room, she compiled accurate conversion data.

Every day, 2.24 million soul energy points will be converted into magical energy.

The total daily output of magical energy is 1.88 billion points.

It is expected that in 160 days, the 300 billion points of magical energy required for the initial construction of the sub-plane will be ready.

As long as you get a few more level 3 circles, this mission objective will be completed ahead of schedule, perfectly fitting the timing of the next ritual to communicate with the core of the "escape" plane.

Nailed it~

Li Nuo breathed a long sigh of relief.

Now he can devote himself to the research and development of the machine with peace of mind.

At the same time that Li Nuo, Noreen and the others were obsessed with the great cause of the second plane, Merster, the acting commander of MI2, who was far away in the place of recovery, welcomed the wizards of the Pure Light Court in his office.

Thanks for the subscription and monthly pass!
