Chapter 244 Conception of the Switch Rune
Spending two gold lunettes in 15 minutes is really too much consumption. If the magic engine is compared to an internal combustion engine and the magic stone is compared to oil, the oil is simply made of gold. If you don’t find a way to reduce energy costs, there is no It is impossible to make the magic machine practical.

Xia Lin pondered for a while, and soon came up with two feasible ideas. One of them was naturally to reduce the number of rotation magic circles depicted on the enchantment layer of the magic motive. If all the magic power in a standard magic power crystal is used, then only nine spinning magic circles can be drawn, and the usage time can be extended to 15 minutes.

If Xia Lin's previous speculation is correct, the power of the magic motor will also be reduced by half, but at least there is a level of 100 kgf m/s, which is enough to replace the part that needs animal power to drive in some factories.

However, this method is also a temporary solution, not a root cause. After finally developing the magic motor, instead of trying to increase the power of the magic motor, but reducing the power of the magic motor in order to save energy, wouldn’t that be putting the cart before the horse?

Although the level of 100 kgf m/s can play some role in Xia Lin's power reform plan, the effect is really not great.

After all, although water power has the limitation that it must have a geographical advantage, it does not cost much, and at the same time it provides a strong power.

For example, the power provided by the large water wheels with a height of more than three meters installed in more than a dozen factories in the industrial park can easily reach the level of 300 kgf m/s. If the consumption is too large, the power cannot reach As far as the level of water power is concerned, Xia Lin's development of this magic motor is better than not developing it.

After thinking about the pros and cons of this idea, Xia Lin quickly discarded it. This idea is at most used to create some small magic motors to solve some emergency or necessary power needs, and has no other use.

Then Xia Lin's eyes naturally fell on the second line of thought, which was to find a way to reduce the energy consumption of the magic machine without reducing the number of rotation magic circles and reducing the power of the magic machine.

It just so happens that Xia Lin also has a little idea about this, that is, to try to develop and utilize the magic power of the environment in the air.

The principle of this idea comes from Xia Lin's experience of the difference between mage casting and rune plate casting. Mage casting adopts the way of self-management to attract the magic power of the environment to participate in casting. If it is 10 grids of magic power, mages only need to pay about one-third of the magic power consumption of a spell, which is about 3.3 grids of magic power, and they can cast the power of the original spell with the help of environmental magic power.

However, to cast spells on the rune disk, it is necessary to completely rely on the magic power in the magic stone to complete the spellcasting, that is, to directly consume the 10 grids of magic power stored in the magic stone.

In the previous magic power detection experiment in the imperial capital and its surrounding areas, Xia Lin already knew the huge amount of magic power in the environment. There are 33 squares of magic power in every cubic meter of space. If the magic power contained in the magic stone is compared to a lake, The magic power of the environment is like an ocean. If the magic power of the environment can be used smoothly, then Xia Lin will no longer have to think about the source of the magic power.

And if you want to use the magic power of the environment, it seems that you only need to remove the isolation runes set in the rune disk circle, but there is another factor affecting this seemingly simple problem, and that is the limit on the number of times the rune disk can be used.

The service life of the rune disk is not permanent. The number of times the rune disk can be used depends on the spiritual power in the spiritual power node fixed by special alchemy in the magic circle.

The reason why the rune plate is set to isolate the runes to isolate the influence of the environmental magic power on the rune plate magic circle is because the environmental magic power will continuously stimulate the spells of the rune plate to take effect. Once the spiritual power in the node is exhausted and the node dissipates, the rune plate will naturally be lost. effect.

If you think about it further, Xia Lin realizes that if you want the magic machine to use the magic power of the environment, you must solve a problem, that is, how to set the "switch" of the spinning technique so that it can take effect when necessary, and when it is not necessary Time to disconnect again.

This kind of switch is not a physical switch similar to the one that Xia Lin found out by himself. It can be operated through the inlay and removal of magic stones. That kind of switch can't solve the problem of stimulating the magic circle with the environmental magic power after the cancellation of the isolation rune, so it needs to be found out. A more essential means to complete this process, such as the "switch rune" that Xia Lin thought of before, can solve this problem.

When needed, activate the switch rune, connect the magic circle, and let it take effect to absorb the magic power of the environment and a small amount of magic power in the magic stone to complete the construction of the spell. When it is not needed, turn off the switch rune to make the magic circle invalid, so that it will not cause The situation where the magic power of the environment stimulates the magic circle.

It's just that it's not easy to achieve this, because the magic circle in this world is a whole, and the lines of the magic circle are the spiritual power nodes built by alchemists through alchemy, so the magic circle can take effect, so Naturally, the magic circle cannot be arbitrarily set switches like a circuit. If it is really necessary to disconnect a certain part of the magic circle to make it invalid, the failure will not be temporary, but permanent.

Xia Lin, who had a headache, thought about this question silently. After a long time, the northern border horses and the magic machine also completed the whole process of the test.According to the metric unit set by Xia Lin, after taking the average of the power provided by the three northern horses, one horsepower in this world is equivalent to 63.2 kgf m/s, which is smaller than the 75 kgf m/s in the previous life Quite a lot.

For the convenience of calculation, Xia Lin simply took 60 kgf m/s as the size of one horsepower.

After taking the average power of the magic motor, it is determined to be 206 kgf m/s, which is equivalent to a power of 3.4 horsepower. Xia Lin named this magic motor 1MD3.4 (the letters are similar in pronunciation The imperial letter) magic machine, which means the first type of magic machine with a power of 3.4 horsepower, and the follow-up magic machines made by Sophia and others will also adopt the same naming format.

Tell the testers in the factory to continue testing the magic motors sent by Sophia and others to see if there is one that consumes less power and consumes more power among the seven magic motor models they proposed. Lin concentrated on solving this big problem on the road to the practical application of his magic motive.

But after working behind closed doors for two days, he didn't have any ideas. He inadvertently glanced at the three books "Constructing Golem Basics", "Constructing Golem Runes" and "Soul Core Rune Array" placed on the bookshelf in his office. Looking at the books, Xia Lin thought of the library of the Royal Academy of Magic after a long absence.

Before, he thought about going to the Royal Library of the Royal Academy of Magic to read some of the books to see if he could help him, but then as the situation developed, he became more and more busy, and there was no need to He didn't have time to go to the academy to continue to study his magic knowledge, and even forgot to return these books borrowed from Professor Maltz.

Professor Maltz later defected to the Hand of the Dead during the incident at Wyrmrest Palace. I think he didn't urge himself to return the book during that time, probably because he was busy arranging those conspiracies.

Thinking of this, Xia Lin became a little interested in the reason why Professor Maltz joined the Hand of the Dead. After the incident, Professor Maltz was confirmed to be alive by the prophecy of Archmage Agnes. What the hell are the hands of the dead trying to do with the dead and their souls?
