Chapter 22 Alternate Energy


The magic steam train was speeding on the tracks, and the picturesque scenery on both sides regressed, making the elf girl Nord Daniel, who was riding this vehicle for the first time, dizzy.

Suddenly, the whistle sounded, and the magic steam train slowly stopped.

"What's going on" Although the elf girl Nordaniel is boarding the magic steam train for the first time, she is a girl who likes to listen to the "sound of mysteries", and has a general understanding of the operation of the magic steam train, knowing that stopping at the station often means that something is wrong.

Having been to the Council of Magic several times, Ellerstin immediately noticed the anomaly, so she cast a natural magic spell "Eagle Eye" on herself, looking at the edge of the forest in the distance.

In the narrow strip between the forest and the railroad tracks, groups of wild animals are desperately attacking the humans on the other side.

There were hundreds of these humans, dressed in standard silver-gray chain mail and sturdy helmets, standing in three rows, holding black "metal sticks" in their hands.

The animals that attacked were originally very ordinary creatures, tigers, jackals, rabbits, goats, etc., but now they were covered with blood-red scales, and the gaps between the scales were dripping with bloody pus, and their eyes were red, full of murder and bloodthirstiness.

"Demonization: A high-level demon has sneaked out of the Stroop Forest," Ellerstin said with a slight astonishment, such a scene was all too familiar to her, because not long ago, when the Abyss Rift changed, the animals in the Stroop Forest had undergone similar changes Nordaniel also blessed himself with the "Eagle Eye Technique", and said thoughtfully: "When the gap in the abyss suddenly expanded, the Great Elder was busy dealing with the Blood King and the Demon Duke, and the other demons all relied on the resistance of the clansmen and adventurers in the Nameless Town, so it was normal to miss something."

"These demonized animals are very dangerous, how can the Kingdom of Holm only send knight-level soldiers to deal with it" Ellerstin regarded guarding and sealing the Stroop Forest as the responsibility of the elves, so after seeing this situation, she felt a little guilty in her heart, there would have been no similar thing at all, who knew that Lord Lanhil was blinded by greed.

She stood up and was about to push open the window of the VIP compartment and fly over to assist the human soldiers in dealing with demonic animals with natural magic.

After a series of bangs, the bloodthirsty animals fell to the ground one after another, spilling blood.

"What's that?"

said Ellerstine, who really noticed that the human soldiers were holding almost identical-looking "black metal sticks" in their hands.

Nordniel took a closer look and suddenly remembered something: "This is very similar to the high-pressure steam rifle of the dwarven steam civilization" Although the dwarven steam civilization is a lost civilization, the elves have a long life, from the mythological era to the present, and the collection of various literature and classics is very rich, and they also have a deep understanding of it.

"There is no high-pressure steam backpack, no smoke, and it also relies on firing high-speed projectiles to damage the enemy, which can be comparable to the attack of a full-fledged knight" Ellerstin blessed himself with other "telepathic" nature magic, carefully distinguishing the difference between this weapon and the high-pressure steam rifle.

Bang bang bang human soldiers divided into three rows, two rows crouched, one row upright, taking turns shooting, from time to time taking brass-colored projectiles from their pockets and loading them into their own "rifles".

According to the feedback of the natural gods, Ellerstin found that these projectiles were engraved with simple magic patterns, and there was a faint smell of alchemical substance inside.

Bang bang bang Although the demonized animals are fast and close to the official knights, they only have the enemy on the opposite side in their red eyes, and they just want to tear the other party to pieces and eat them alive, and the direction of action is easy to lock, plus the platoon guns have a wide firing surface, and they can dodge one shot, but they can't dodge a row, so it didn't take long for their number to decrease sharply, and the ground was full of corpses.

"With this weapon, the bottom strength of the Holm Kingdom has risen significantly."

Ellerstine's voice was a little deep, "They can organize more legions, and they can hurt the legions of official knights." ” The elven girl Nordaniel shook her head: "But what's the use of encountering high-level professionals, they are the objects of being unable to resist, just like the original steam civilization, and encountering mid- and low-level magicians and knights with long-range offensive means will also suffer heavy losses." ” "The high ranks are also promoted from the middle and low ranks."

Alestine looked at the battle in the distance and said, "If weapons and armor can be produced in large quantities, just like those alchemy items that have been popularized, at least in battles below the high level, the Kingdom of Holm and the Council of Magic will have a great advantage. ” In the past, a knight order had a maximum of five hundred knights, and a kingdom had a maximum of three or four such knights, and the squires basically did not play a role, but now, if weapons and armor can be popularized, it means that more knights have been added to the kingdom, and the number of knights and knights is scarce, but there are many knight squires, and there are more ordinary people who can become squires Ellerstin continued, "And who knows if the Council of Magic has developed a more powerful and accurate weapon, a similar weapon for the use of mid- and low-level knights. ” "If there were similar weapons with a longer range and faster speed, like our excellent magic longbow, and with the arrangement of anti-prophecy classes, wouldn't it be possible to hide in the distance and blow off the heads of magicians who have no trigger class and passive spells with a bang" Nordiel has heard too much of the "mysterious sound", and has a special feeling for blowing off his head.

At this moment, the conductor in charge of receiving them, a mid-level magician, walked in, intending to explain to them why they had suddenly stopped.

After hearing their conversation, he smiled and said, "By the time that weapon is developed, the defensive magic against it will definitely have already been created, and by that time, maybe the magic such as spell triggering will have become a mid-level spell." ” His tone was full of confidence that has characterized the mages of the Council in recent decades, confidence in the Grand Arcanists, in the Supreme Council, in the High Arcanists, in the overall upward atmosphere of the Magic Council, and in the prospects for the development of the Arcane "I believe in the research capabilities of the Parliament."

Ellerstin expressed kindness.

Nordaniel asked curiously, "I heard that after Lord Evans proposed the observer effect, the council's research on the microscopic field has been in a difficult situation."

In order to satisfy the curiosity of ordinary people, "Voices of Mysteries" has also added programs similar to Arcane and Magic Guide.

The conductor said with a slight embarrassment: "Just the controversy over why microscopic particles exhibit such strange qualities has not yet convinced most people, but it does not mean that the research in the microscopic field has come to a standstill, such as the in-depth study of the fission reaction of the Storm Master, the Elemental Dominator, and the Atom Manipulator is likely to allow us to obtain a better source of energy." ” "Fission, this pollution seems to be very serious," Ellerstine frowned.

The battle in the distance suddenly changed, and a goat leaped out of the few mutated animals left.

Its appearance changed rapidly, and a pair of bat-like wings grew from its back, as if it were a near-high-level demon Ellersteen's face turned serious, and sure enough, a powerful demon had sneaked out of the Stroop Forest.

Just as she was about to go to the rescue, suddenly a silver-white electric snake-like light lit up, extremely dazzling, like an explosion of lightning.

And when the lightning flashed, the air seemed to be dispersed, and the demon didn't even have a chance to dodge, and the upper half of its body fell back and exploded with a bang, and the flesh and blood fell black.

"This is" Ellerstine saw a knight in silver-gray full-body armor appear at the edge of the forest, his blonde hair was bronish, his face was handsome and resolute, and he carried a silver-white "rifle" with intricate shapes and smooth lines.

The conductor looked at this scene and took a light breath: "It is the Gauss rifle developed by His Excellency Evans, which can only be used by strong people who are close to the Heavenly Knight and high-level magicians, because it cannot be mass-produced, there are only three at present, and he seems to be the Great Knight of John of the Knights of the Sword of Truth." ” Nordaniel breathed a sigh of relief, if this weapon can be mass-produced and the user has no strength limit, then the high-level powerhouses will be threatened to some extent Woo-woo-woo, clang-clang, the battlefield in front of it was cleaned up, and the magic steam train restarted.

Alinge, inside the Atomic Research Institute.

Heidi is taking her new friends, Ellestin and Nordaniel, to visit this famous place.

The two elves were full of praise for the fantastical and mysterious appearance of the institute, but they felt that it did not seem to match nature too well, and it had a strong sense of manufacture, as if it was a proof and symbol of the magician's conquest of nature.

"A few days ago, when Mr.

Lazar used an electromagnetic cyclotron to conduct an atomic nuclear bombardment experiment, he successfully prepared a new element, a new element that exists stably and a new element that can be put into the periodic table."

Heidi triumphantly pointed to the electromagnetic cyclotron in front of her.

This is the first step taken by magicians in the field of creation under the guidance of new alchemy, and no one will ever question the correctness of new alchemy in this regard, it can really allow magicians to make other elements into gold that will not disappear with the end of the magic effect, although this is still to be found in a suitable way, but if there is a theoretical basis, it is just a matter of more experiments.

Ellerstine stared at the electromagnetic cyclotron in front of her in a daze, unable to speak for a long time, the magicians were really beginning to gain the creative authority of nature in the light of Lord Evans's new alchemy Seeing this, Nordaniel diverted the topic: "Heidi, how is your artificial intelligence progressing" Heidi said with some indignation: "Our research team is assembling a prototype with an electron tube and a magic array, and the teacher said that no matter how much you think about this, it is better to actually complete one, so as to find the specific problem."

Due to the size and weight of the design, and the expected computing speed is not enough, many magicians say that it is likely to be useless, and everything needs to be improved slowly, and other crystals are more in-depth, I believe that artificial intelligence will be a great supplement to computing, golems, and alchemical life."

That's all she hopes for now.

Listening to Heidi's complaints, Ellerstin and Nodaniel smiled at each other and comforted her.

Inside the Alinge Magic Tower, in front of the secret gate that leads to the core of the city in the sky.

"Teacher, you've finished building the fission reactor," Lucien guessed as soon as he saw his destination.

Although there is a big difference with Lucien on the observer effect, Fernando usually does not be hostile to Lucien because of this, and still maintains a good teacher-student relationship, he nodded and said: "According to your opinion, we have improved part of the model and completed a preliminary reactor as a backup energy source for Alinge." ” After they reversed the fission reaction, they began to study this area, but because the analysis was not detailed enough, and they did not have the most complete understanding of the role of neutrons, etc., the progress was not fast, and only recently with the assistance of magic, a fission reactor with an output energy greater than the input energy was forcibly completed.

Rentat, a workers' ghetto inhabited by dwarves.

The Grand Elder Augustus was worshipping a silver-gray thing of steel when Harold ran in and first covered his eyes and saluted, "Steam is on it." ” Then, he lowered his right hand and said to Augustus, "Great Elder, there is a kindred outside who claims to be from the Dwarven Kingdom, and he says that he is the messenger of the great god of steam. ”:
