Sword of Daybreaker

“So this is your success created by ‘Rebecca Crystal’ …… ah, yes, looks like the same thing.”

Sitting in his big account, watching a large basket of things that Rebecca was rushing with, Gawain slightly nodded.

It is a basket of gray black, its ugly strange material, some loose like sand, some are tied together, but no matter what form, it is almost evenly embedded with countless fine particles, and compared with Rebecca first The “waste” that was created by the subtle scum, the crystal granules in this basket of finished products were significantly higher, and the average diameter of the granules seemed to be much larger.

This shows that Rebecca not only found the formula, but also faintly touched the number of ways to improve production.

When I heard Gawain’s words, Rebecca, who was a low-profile man with a low profile, was embarrassed. Miss Viscountess scratched his face with a smoky, black-faced face, laughing like a 17-year-old and in a cement kiln. The silly scorpion that burned the explosives: “Hey… Lord Ancestor Do you really think this thing can be called this name? Not all very powerful people can name something else with their own name…”

“These crystals were invented by you. Are you not powerful enough?” Gawain looked at the unconfident N+1 level great-granddaughter. “Well, although there is still a lot of room for improvement, it is indeed already The re-implementation of the ‘product’, the name Rebecca Crystal is deserved.”

Rebecca enters the silly state: “Hey, hey…”

“Don’t be stupid, talk about how this thing was made,” Gawain didn’t know whether to cry or laugh at the iron head, “although any new material appears to have luck.” Ingredients, but I still want to know how this good luck will come to us.”

“Oh, it’s true, it’s a coincidence,” Rebecca scratched his face. “It’s actually burned according to the original recipe you gave me, but yesterday I failed to try to restore the firing process. Second, which ratio does not work – I later suspected that on the stove, so I ordered a few kiln to check the condition, and found that one of the kiln’s inner wall fell off a large piece…”

“Is it a big chunk?” Gawain frowned, realizing that the key to forming these “Rebecca Crystals” was probably on the pieces of the kiln that fell off. “So the materials used to build the kiln also participated in the reaction? ”

“This is one of the reasons, because those kiln also use rune heating, so they were built with quartz sand, and in addition to quartz sand, another important reason is the stone from the Dark Mountain Range. ”

“The stone of the Dark Mountain Range?” Gawain repeated.

“Yes, I compared several sets of records and found that there is two differences between the furnace and the other furnaces. The first is that the quartz sand used to build the kiln is mixed with the raw materials, and the second is the material used in the raw materials. Limestone was dug from the Dark Mountain Range. The other limestones came from the Clearwater River and were transported from the west side of the logging yard. If they were used as raw materials, they would not be used even if they were mixed with quartz sand…”

Two conditions, quartz sand and limestone from Dark Mountain Range…

Gawain is slightly addicted. These two conditions are the exact conclusions that Rebecca has made after multiple comparisons. Without doubting its authenticity, what role did these two distinguishing things play in this process?

Quartz sand is also imaginable, because it is a weakly magical material. Although it is extremely cheap, it is also a genuine magic material, and it is one of the raw materials for making artificial crystals. But what about limestone from Dark Mountain Range?

Why can’t limestone mined from other places?

He threw out these questions and asked Rebecca to ask.

Miss Viscountess didn’t think about these details at all. She scratched her head: “I am happy, I haven’t thought about it…”

“Dark Mountain Range was once enveloped by magic tide, and there are still traces of erosion by element tide in many places in the mountains,” Gawain touch the chin said thoughtfully. “Perhaps this process has changed the nature of some of these minerals… …to make them have the characteristics to participate in the magic reaction?”

In the absence of more experimental data and theoretical guidance, Gawain can only make such bold speculations, but no matter what the real reason is, Gawain now determines one thing: “Rebecca Crystal” is absolutely in this world Unique, at least in Ainz Kingdom is unique.

Usually, whoever is idle, ran to the Dark Mountain Range to dig the mountain flint stone…

“After confirming that the key lies in quartz sand and Dark Mountain Range limestone, I tried several ways to improve the crystal proportion and quality,” Rebecca continued. “I found that increasing the proportion of quartz sand can make the crystal yield higher, but many The crystal will be broken off when it is released. Increasing the proportion of limestone will increase the ability of the finished product to store mana, but after a certain percentage, it will not form a crystal. And I also found that the temperature and firing time have a great influence… can test There are too many projects. When I can’t finish it, I will burn it out according to the best method I use now. Hey, that’s what you are in front of you.”

Gawain asked bluntly: “Can ordinary people complete this process?”

“Yes, but most people don’t understand what ‘cross-control’ and ‘observation group’ you taught me, so they can only do it according to the method taught them,” Rebecca replied, “and they Careless, even if you tell them how to do it, you will often make mistakes in the ratio, or remember the burning time – the time control required to burn crystals is much stricter than burning bricks.”

It is imperative to improve the average quality of laborers.

However, there are even a few qualified cultural teachers in the Feidal Territory that can’t be found… All the people who know the word count are already overloaded. Where can I find someone to set up an education team?

Going to Tanzan Town to hire? There are not a few words on Tanzan Town! The person who can read and write is not a businessman’s son or a “decent person” who has entered the aristocratic mansion and served as a steward and a clerk. How can these people be willing to come to such a place where birds do not pull, follow the pioneers, and they are not themselves poor? Serfs and the poor…

Gawain touched his head, and every time a new problem appeared, he always subconsciously had this action, as if he was confirming his hairline…

“Lord Ancestor?” Rebecca carefully started talking.

“No, it’s okay, this is a long-term problem,” Gawain waved. “You continue to produce according to this ‘optimal plan’. When you have leisure, try a better match. In short, these The more crystal particles, the better, even as important as the output of steel. Right, you have to find a way to extract the mixed crystals, and the dark residue next to it is useless. You can try to lick them. Filtered with water, the crystal is harder than the residue, and it is heavier. After mashing, the water wash should be easy to separate.”

Rebecca listened to nodded, and after Gawain finished speaking, she smiled and scraped it. He whispered like a stolen kitten: “That… Lord Ancestor, I heard Aunt Hetty say, you are planning to put this Is the crystal made of a magic item that will explode?”

“It’s almost a meaning,” Gawain glanced at the girl who had always had a whimsy. “What do you think?”

“You are planning to use the detonation formation in the Gondor standard crystal on this crystal,” Rebecca’s eyes sparkled. “But how do you want to detonate?”

Gawain frowned, this is exactly what he is thinking about.

The detonation formations in the Gondor crystals are similar to the common small magic formations, which are magic formations that cannot be self-charged. In other words, they require an external mana source as the “starting energy source” for subsequent detonation. In the Gondor crystal, this Part of the energy is provided by the crystal itself, but in his “Art No. 1”, there is no such energy.

The mana stored in Rebecca Crystal can’t be extracted to participate in other magic reactions except for being directly bombed as an explosive. Therefore, the detonation formation attached to Rebecca Crystal must use other mana as the “starting power”. Where does this part of mana come from?

Use another piece of energy storage crystal as a “burst battery”? Then this loses the meaning of “cheap”.

Use Magician’s mana to activate the formation? Then this loses the design goal of “Let ordinary people use it.”

“Let’s just say it. Look at your eyes and you know that you have an idea.” Gawain looked at Rebecca and saw that the girl was not a person who could hide things. Even if she didn’t ask, she wouldn’t help but want to put it. My thoughts are coming out.

“It’s like this,” Rebecca didn’t sell any more. “I studied the detonation formation and found that the startup mana it needed was actually quite small…”

Gawain nodded: “This is of course, after all is the form used for self-explosion when the crystal is about to expire. Its starting energy demand is definitely optimized and it doesn’t know how many times.”

“Then I found one thing,” Rebecca continued. “The ‘rune trigger’ I invented, it produces an extra mana impact when it is closed. It’s weak, but it does…”

“Wait!” Gawain interrupted Rebecca in an instant. He vaguely realized that he had caught a key issue that had been ignored for a long time. “You said that the rune trigger structure will produce mana at the moment of closure? You are sure that it is not buried. The mana of the underground magic circuit?”

“I have confirmed it several times, because I have a strong sense of mana from a young age, so ‘seeing’ is very real,” Rebecca stressed as hard as he nodded. “The rune trigger has an extra mana when it is closed, and I also found that it is not just the rune trigger. As long as the original complete rune group is taken apart and then closed again, there will be an ‘instant mana’. This moment, the mana will go faster, just blink of an eye. Kung Fu, but if you want to detonate something, then it is enough to have such a blink of an eye.”

Gawain immediately fell into meditation, almost waking up when Rebecca was nervous: “Ah… very good, very good, then you can combine your rune trigger with the detonation formation according to your own ideas. Try it. You can let Hetty help, and that is what I told you.”

Rebecca suddenly smiled, but before she left, she suddenly remembered something: “Oh, Lord Ancestor, do you think the name of this bursting item should be in the future?”

Gawain thought about it, and Bao Xiang solemnly replied: “Art.”

Rebecca: “Hey? Is this related to art?”

Gawain looks serious: “It’s art.”

Rebecca thought about it with her eyes turned over and thought that Old Ancestor might have other deep meaning, so happy to nodded: “Well! Art!”

Rebecca left, but Gawain was sitting in the camp for a long time and could not calm down.

He was playing with a pen in his hand, unconsciously turning around, and when he reacted, he realized that he had written a line of text on the draft paper:

What is mana, mana?

(Ah, I actually updated a chapter?)
