Wren's calculation was correct, and when he received the third disciple, the system really gave him something new.

First of all, [Academy-wide, apprentices' elemental sensitivity increase has been adjusted to 150%!] 】。

The second is [the academy traffic is enhanced, and the host can set up three pairs of portals centered on the academy for designated disciples and followers to use, without the need for the host to personally control it every time. (Teleportable Host)! 】

Then there is the expansion of the scope of the physical network, within a radius of 200 kilometers centered on the academy land, anyone with permission can obtain the magic blessing of the physical network, the farther the distance, the lower the transmission of magic, and the number of shared magic also increases and decreases with the distance. 】

This is very practical, which means that Wren can also get some blessings when he leaves the academy.

Finally, the college laboratory system is opened! 】

The so-called laboratory is that Wren draws a circle within the academy to occupy a plot, as long as enough materials are injected, he can build a laboratory according to the appearance he designed in the system, and the apprentices who conduct experiments in it can get corresponding bonuses, and use it as a workshop to produce certain things.

Only a maximum of two laboratories are allowed at this stage.

The first option is the Physical Destruction and Protection Test Laboratory.

This is the simplest and most brutal, and by conducting various offensive and defensive experiments in it, it can greatly increase the magic power and protection of the apprentice.

For example, Wren could put a magic-powered electromagnetic cannon inside, and then have Harry place protective magic shields in the air on the designated design track to test each other's offensive and defensive powers.

To put it a little simpler, it is also possible to reserve an open space as a shooting range.

The system reads: [It can increase the apprentice's magic proficiency, increase the damage or protection of the magic by up to 20%, and reduce the magic power when casting the spell by 10%.] Have a higher chance of comprehension (Ultra Magic Specialty)! 】

The second option is the Mechanics Laboratory.

That's pretty general. Wren looked around, and half of it was ???

He decided to leave it alone.

The third is [Optical Laboratory], which is easier to understand. The enabling condition is that a large number of mirrors and glass are required. Enhanced is light-based magic.

The fourth is the [Constructs Laboratory].

The first item asked for was Wren's card to death. It says that an independent master tower spirit is needed.

Right! It can be used independently and cannot be shared with other departments.

[Cold noodles] This product is only high-end, which is obviously not qualified.

The second is that 3 million gold coins are required for start-up, as well as 500 tons of various metal ingots.

After reading this, Wren realized: "Sure enough, to engage in magic is to engage in scientific research, and it is all a waste of money!" ”

Fortunately, Wren was not fooled and accepted the tribute of the Kingdom of Cervantes in full.

It's just a small kingdom, and it really can't afford to raise a legendary archmage.

If you received the treasury of King Cervantes before, now you are afraid that you will enter the plot of 'I used to call people Britney, but now I am called Mrs. Niu'.

Four laboratories, choose two out of four, it's not impossible to fool around.

After all, the powerful bonuses of the academy are here, even if you choose two out of three in the first three labs, it is not bad.

That's where Wren's struggle lies.

Well, people always want to do it in one step.

With such a tempting quasi-Gundam factory here, how can you let Wren endure it?

The fastest way to get a master-level mage tower is naturally to get a master-level mage tower, which is theoretically quite easy, after all, the two imperial capitals have an ownerless master-level mage tower to deal with, and it is not impossible to discuss it. No matter how no, there are also master-level mage towers in the wild.

Wren is considered to be playing a copy.

The key is money and metal ingots.

Wren always thought that money was not a problem, and if he calculated carefully, he was actually a poor person in the world of the Faye.

From the very beginning of the crossing, Wren rarely used money.

The whole valley is in a state of low-productivity self-sufficiency, and the equipment is delivered.

And building a Gundam is the same as building a costume structure, it's a money-burning thing.

For example, a [Shocking Guard] is worth 5,000 gold coins, which Wren picked up from the Madeira mage.

This is only the cost of materials, and it has not been included in the time cost of the mage, because each [Shocking Guard] is made by the mage himself.

Not to mention that the damage, movement speed, and protection of this kind of construct that is only one person tall cannot satisfy Wren.

Even if the properties are satisfied, according to the brochure left by Madeira, it takes an average of two months to make one, which is absolutely a death spare.

Therefore, a constructor laboratory costs 3 million, which is really not expensive.

The question is, how do you make money?

That's 3,000,000 gold coins, and there's not so much money in the treasury of the entire Kingdom of Cervantes.

The two empires theoretically have so much money, but they have a big spread, and they have to use money everywhere, who can afford it? It is rumored that taxes from some provinces of the Barbarossa Empire have been received for ten years.

Wren had no clue but to recruit the most knowledgeable one in the academy.

"Sanders, I need a lot of money, you know where to get a big buck? I mean, legally. ”

The shadow dancer whispered tentatively, "Your Excellency, how big is your penny?" ”

"About 3 million gold coins, preferably with a few large integrated mines, the kind that can produce rare ores."

Saunders's expression was wonderful: "Your Excellency, are you discussing with me a sum of more than 10 million gold coins?" ”

"Is it huge?"

For another person, Sanders inevitably sprayed him.

A knight with a full set of equipment, including armor, weapons and horses, is only 50 gold coins. On average, in the entire human kingdom of Kaos Continent, a baron has 10 knights, 40 to 60 servants, plus apprentices who can barely fight, and there are about 100 armed forces. The combined net worth here is only a thousand gold coins.

Note that this money is not paid every year or every generation of knights.

It is common for a set of armor to be used as a family heirloom and passed down to ten or eight generations.

For example, the poor ghost baron of the Duchy of Marino can afford to raise 4 knights and about 30 servants.

Don't think that 50,000 gold coins is very little, the thousands of people's standard equipment when the former Marino Grand Dukes were wiped out, add up to almost this number.

As soon as Wren opened his mouth, it was 3 million, which is equal to the total value of the equipment of 60 poor ghost dukedoms, do you say Sanders is speechless?

However, Wren can ask this question, which is very in line with the stereotype that has been handed down from ancient times [Master burns too much].

Sanders smiled bitterly: "In addition to the two major empires, the only one who can take out this amount casually is the [Swaitland Kingdom]. ”

"Tell me about this kingdom."

"Its state religion is the goddess of wealth, can you think of anything?"

"Neutral? Usury? "I don't know why, this country suddenly matched a certain country on the earth in Wren's memory.

"There's a famous saying in Sweetland – after shaking hands with a banker in Sweetland, remember to count if you're missing a finger."
