Chapter 179 Technical Testing

The on-site teaching assisted by Vikas gave Duke the most intuitive understanding of card making, which was much more difficult than repairing cards.

Repairing a card is just a kind of tinkering with details, just like repairing a car.

Card making involves design and research and development, just like building a complete car, and the difficulty is not at all a level.

"Every time the card material is different, so every time you make a spirit card, it feels like a new adventure." Holding the spirit pen, Vikas drew the last energy line, and pressed the energy line into the card material, which perfectly docked with the energy line at the beginning.

So.

A 1-ring spirit card - a spirit storage card is basically completed, and the rest is the packaging cover.

"It seems that there is no technical content, just a thin and light card, in fact, all the technical content is in the minds of our card makers."

Vikas handed the card to Duke.

Duke quickly injected a trace of psionic energy, activating the spell model in the Soul Reservoir card, confirming that it was a successful Soul Reservoir card.

"Congratulations to the guide, you successfully earned 15 silver dragons."

Duke had run a card repair shop before, so he naturally knew that the price of a 1-ring spirit storage card on the market was 15 silver dragons, which was not cheap for ordinary people.

Vikas shook his head, "It's only sold for 15 silver dragons, making it is a waste of time for me. ”

"It seems that card makers don't like to make these civilian cards?" Duke asked.

"Of course, the price of a civilian card can even be as low as 1 silver dragon, and no aspiring card maker will waste his energy on this."

"What are the civilian cards on the market made of, and they can't be handed over to spiritual apprentices, right?"

"You've repaired a lot of spirit cards before, why don't you guess how these civilian cards are produced from the situation of these civilian cards themselves?"

Vikas smiled and asked Duke a question.

Duke thought for a moment, and then his eyes lit up: "You mean, the arcane mages behind the Union Card Store have a technology to make civilian cards in large quantities?" ”

On the civilian cards he repaired, he could find some very similar energy lines, as if they were copied from the same mold.

"Yes, a very powerful technology, it is this technology that has changed the pattern of the spirit card and allowed the civilian card to enter thousands of households." Vikas is a great admirer of this technology, "Psionic energy resonates memory, and through resonance, a large amount of psionic energy is output synchronously with the card maker. ”

In short, psionic resonance memory means that when the card maker is making a spirit card, he will have a set of equipment to record his spiritual energy at all times, and then copy his actions to complete the production of the spirit card in a unified format.

After Duke understood, he asked suspiciously: "The card materials are different, and the spiritual distribution is also different, how to adapt to the spiritual energy output of the unified mode?" ”

"I haven't seen this technology, but the mentor is a consultant at Union Card Stores, and he has seen this technology. First of all, you can make the card material uniformly to ensure that the spiritual distribution is roughly the same, and then hand it over to the spiritual apprentice to check the spiritual distribution and select the card material with the same layout......"

United card stores have almost monopolized the low-end spirit card market in major cities, especially civilian spirit cards, which are basically produced by United Card stores.

They need to make a large number of civilian cards, so in a large number of card materials, it is easy to get together a batch of card materials with the same spiritual layout.

When you hand it over to a card maker to draw, you can use the Psionic Resonance Memory to draw a large number of spell models at once.

The more card materials, the more spirit cards can be engraved at one time, and the higher the value of the spirit resonance memory.

"So you understand, card makers trained in small places will either end up being recruited by the Union Card Store, or they can only take the high-end route and make Arcane cards, and they are high-level Arcane cards."

Vikas smiled and continued, "Making a 2-ring card is better than making dozens of 1-ring cards...... The more complex the spell model, the higher the requirements for the spiritual distribution of the card material, and it is difficult to slowly meet the needs of the psionic resonance memory technology. ”

With a smug expression, Vikas said ostentatiously: "So even if the United Card Store monopolizes the entire low-end spirit card market, relying on high-end cards alone, we card makers can live a very nourishing life." ”

"I see."

"Okay, today we will teach the production of these basic cards, don't underestimate these techniques, they are enough to study for a long time." Vikas said, and sighed inexplicably. "As for the basic card, the slightly more complex spirit card, each technology requires years of hard work!"

……

Vikas teaches only the most basic techniques of making spirit cards.

There is no need for additional psionic materials to be used as raw materials for energy threads, only the arcane mage's own psionic energy is needed to complete the crafting.

"Doesn't sound very difficult, right, Xiaoyi." Duke returned to his office and requested a card production device.

The main ones are the card tomography machine and the ring compressor.

"Master, Xiaoyi needs a simulation experiment to determine the technology of making spirit cards, is it very difficult?"

"Then let's give it a try."

Duke took out a blank spirit card, to be exact, it was just a card.

Put it into the card material tomography machine, and quickly scan the distribution of spirituality in it, and at the same time, Xiaoyi also built a 3D image of this card material in the spiritual sea.

And start to mobilize the power, and calculate how to draw the spell model on the card material.

However, soon, Xiaoyi gave feedback: "The calculation data is insufficient, and I need to conduct a test on the card material in person." ”

"Hmm, isn't it enough to just do the math?" Duke was a little surprised.

Before making cards, he read all the books related to card making that he could find on the market and entered them into Xiaoyi's database.

Although these books do not record the actual card making techniques, there is a lot of explanation of the spell model.

Especially the skills and principles of painting and engraving spell models, Xiaoyi has long been proficient.

"Master, the combination of card material and ring requires more practical operation data to judge the optimal solution for making spirit cards."

"I see, then give it a try."

Duke put the blank spirit card into the ring pressure instrument, started the machine, held a psychic pen, and began to draw the first energy line according to Xiaoyi's experimental steps.

Not as skilled as Vikas's guide.

But with the help of the projection of the Douqi holographic screen, his pen speed is not slow, after all, he is just drawing energy lines. When I was in the research group, I don't know how many spell models I have drawn, and they are about to form a kind of muscle memory.

When he drew the third energy line, the energy line that had been compressed into the card material suddenly flickered and then shattered.

When the card material was also shattered by this energy line, the spiritual energy released melted into a scorched mark.

"Failed, master." Xiaoyi's tone of feedback brought a hint of humanized loss.

It's not that Xiaoyi has human emotions, but that after the improvement of computing power, its imitation of human emotions is more in place.

"It's okay, come again!" Duke didn't care.

The cost of the card material is only a dozen copper plates, and he throws it directly if it is broken, and he doesn't even plan to repair it, and he will no longer rely on the frustration of the waste card station to find cards.

A new spirit card is placed in the ring pressure meter.

The instrument was activated, and the Douqi holographic screen continued to project the path of the energy line on it, and all Duke needed to do was to easily draw a new energy line according to the projection position.

One energy line after another is compressed into the card material.

Until there is an error in one link, the energy line quickly melts down and burns a part of the card material.
