Magus Tech (Technological Wizard)

As the afternoon approached evening, the sky above the palace quickly darkened, and the whole world revealed a strange amber light, heralding the imminent arrival of a heavy rain.

On the square in front of Richard's Palace, a guard soldier held a strange kite made by a craftsman and looked nervously at the sky above his head.

"Boom", the muffled thunder sounded among the clouds in the sky, and a cool breeze blew across the square.

The guards turned their heads and looked to the side, saw Li Cha nodded, swallowed with a "gu dong", and bravely lifted the kite.

The kite is not an ordinary kite, but a kite that attracts thunder, with a small string of gold chains on it, slender silver threads are woven into the string of the towed kite, and a strangely shaped bottle is attached to the very end.

This is the method that Li Cha came up with after three consecutive experiments failed - to catch lightning with a kite.

In fact, many people have this idea, and some people put it into practice. In the history of modern earth, in June 1752, American scientist Benjamin Franklin took his son and lifted a kite with a copper key into the air. When the kite was struck by lightning, the current flowed along the line of the kite. The wire was successfully drawn down, proving that lightning is also a kind of electricity, and Franklin became famous since then.

This is the knowledge in the textbooks of the modern earth elementary school, and it is not difficult to operate at all. The only thing to consider is how to store the induced lightning. Richard's choice was the Leiden bottle, which was the bottle hanging at the end of the kite rope.

The Leiden Flask was developed by Dutch scientist Mason Brock in 1745.

The most primitive Leiden bottle is just a glass bottle or a ceramic bottle. Tin foil is attached to the inner and outer walls of the bottle. The tin foil in the bottle is connected to a metal rod inserted into the bottle through a metal chain. The upper end of the rod is a diameter A metal ball about a centimeter. Through the principle of capacitors, this structure can store a certain amount of charge and release it when it is used.

Despite its simple structure, the electric current released is strong enough. In an experiment in Paris in 1748 on the modern earth, the electric current released by the Leiden jar caused more than 200 monks holding hands to jump up together.

So this method can absolutely meet the requirements.

Li Cha thought so, and looked at the guard soldiers.

The wind in the square is slowly picking up, and the kites in the hands of the guards are rising higher and higher, reaching the sky.

"Crash", a little electric light flashed, and the gloomy earth suddenly lit up, followed by the sound of thunder.

The guardsmen were startled, but they still held their breath and controlled the kite to continue to rise.

"Huhu", the wind was getting furious, and the electric light between the clouds flickered frequently.

Suddenly, "Boom" thunder exploded, and a thunderbolt fell on the kite in the sky.

With a sound of "Boom", the entire kite was ignited directly into a ball of fire, and the flames spread rapidly down the kite line, along with thunder and lightning.

The soldier's face turned pale in an instant, and his eyes suddenly widened. Looking at the flames, his hands loosened uncontrollably, and the Leyden bottle hanging from the end of the rope immediately fell to the ground.

Edward, who was standing beside him, saw it, cursed, and rushed out. He kicked fiercely on the body of the guards, and then the whole person saved, reaching out his hands to catch the Leyden bottle that was about to fall.

The next moment, Edward's eyes widened, and he saw with his own eyes a blue electric light fell into the bottle in his hand along the kite string. A faint numbness enveloped his body, and at the same time, the hairs on his whole body stood up uncontrollably, causing a huge fear in his heart. It was a fear of the unknown that kept him immobile for a while.

After a long time, I felt the numbness on my body dissipated, and the hair that stood up returned to normal. Edward took a deep breath and then moved. Glancing fiercely at the guard next to him, he quickly ran to Richard in the palace with the Leyden bottle.

As a result, when he entered the palace with his front feet, a torrential rain fell on his back feet. In an instant, the whole world turned into a vast expanse of white, and all he could hear was the sound of "crashing".

Edward was surprised for a moment, feeling a little fortunate, then turned his head to look at Richard, and carefully handed the Leyden bottle: "His Royal Highness, everything is done."

"Yeah." Richard took the Leiden bottle and nodded lightly, then turned around and left without saying much.

Edward said quickly behind him: "His Royal Highness, you didn't have lunch, then dinner..." Before he could finish speaking, Richard walked up the stairs on the second floor and disappeared from sight.

Edward looked at it, smiled helplessly, and muttered to himself: "Alas, is this going to be another whole day without eating? If I don't eat again tomorrow morning, it will really be another whole day. Alas, It's really hard for me to be the captain of the guard..."

...

The next morning, it was not yet full sun.

The yawning Edward walked past the dining room of the palace. With a casual glance, he suddenly opened his eyes and saw Richard appearing in the dining room, eating breakfast.

This!

Edward rubbed his eyes vigorously, and found that he had read it right. He walked into the restaurant in disbelief and greeted, "His Royal Highness, you...why did you get up so early today?"

"Well, I just can't sleep." Li Cha said lightly, cut the white bread into slices with a table knife, smeared the marmalade and put it in his mouth.

While eating, Li Cha frowned, as if thinking about something.

The test with natural lightning and Leiden bottle last night naturally failed, otherwise I would not be sitting in the dining room for breakfast so early.

Last night, according to the description of "The Chapter of Monroe", Richard made his second attempt to reshape his life scientifically. After entering the astral projection, it took a lot of effort to finally wake up the conscious body, and then released the current in the Leiden bottle to the body, hoping to increase the bioelectricity of the body and enter a "highly activated state", and then " open up sources of law".

The current strength of the Leiden bottle is indeed enough. In a very short period of time, Li Cha clearly felt some kind of magical change in his body, but... it was only in a very short period of time.

Because the nature of the Leiden bottle is a capacitor, the current released is one-time, and there is no more after use. Therefore, when the stored charge is exhausted, the "high-energy activation state" disappears instantly, the body returns to normal, and "opening up the source of the law" naturally cannot be started.

"Sure enough, if you want to really crack this second life reshaping, you can't use opportunistic tricks. You must really invest some energy." Li Cha said in his heart.

Li Cha had already made a decision in his heart when he ate a slice of white bread covered with sour jam again.

It is not difficult to obtain a stable and strong current, even in the current medieval world, it can be done with simple materials. The main problem is that the process is cumbersome. And since it doesn't work now, we can only use the most tedious, troublesome and direct method.

Reaching out to pick up the quilt, drinking the warm water inside, and wiping his mouth lightly with a napkin, Li Cha raised his head and looked at Edward and said, "Get the craftsman from the palace?"

"Now, here?" Edward was slightly taken aback.

Li Cha nodded and confirmed, "Yes."

"Uh, yes, His Royal Highness." Edward walked out quickly.
