Wizard: I brought the wrong system...

Chapter 246 Bronze Tag

"On the towering bridge surface, iron coins bounce high into the air, flashing intense sparks of electricity, and then there's a pair of resolute, bright eyes?"

Heri looked up blankly and asked hesitantly:

"I've never seen a tall bridge... and I don't understand what the lightning bolts are... and as for the iron coins, are they currencies made of iron? Like pennies?"

Heli bowed deeply, her face full of apology, and said, "I'm sorry, sir, there are too many things you've said that I don't understand. I can't even imagine the scene you described, let alone grasp the mood the piece requires."

Yaro quickly waved his hand and said, "It's alright. You're still young. Being able to read is already a great achievement. There's no need to apologize for this."

Heri was born a freeman and was only nine years old, yet she could read and write and understand music theory, which was quite remarkable.

Unfortunately, according to her, her parents died at the same time a few years ago due to an epidemic. Otherwise, Yaro would really like to visit her parents and find out how she was raised.

The little girl's bright red hair was already soaked with sweat, sticking to her smooth forehead and making her face a little plumper. It was now covered with a lot of charcoal ash, making her look like a disheveled little kitten.

Even though Yaro had tried to calm her down, the "little kitten" was still pouting, annoyed that she couldn't help.

This made even the heartless boss who was exploiting her feel a pang of pity.

"Don't worry, I'll draw it for you."

As he spoke, Yaro picked up a piece of charcoal and began to draw and explain.

"You've probably seen small bridges before. Tall bridges serve a similar purpose. Small bridges are for crossing small rivers, while large bridges are for crossing large rivers. To prevent the bridge deck from breaking, wood is generally no longer used. Instead, materials similar to stone are used, so the bridge deck is very smooth, just like the ground..."

Heri stared at the drawing on the ground, comparing it to the human figures depicted by Yaro, and exclaimed repeatedly, "Compared to that bridge, people are as small as ants! Can such a bridge really be built?"

"Why not? Castles were built slowly, just like that. Don't underestimate human strength."

……

"Iron coins are round pieces of iron, possibly mixed with other materials. They should be about the same size as the 'penny' you mentioned, like arrows from a bow and arrow. They were that girl's main weapon."

"This is roughly what electric sparks look like. They're not the kind of lightning that happens in nature. They're like the ball of light I release. They're all controlled by superhumans. Yesterday, I asked you if you knew about stones that attract iron. That's to create a kind of electric current. Once you find those stones, even a mortal can create these electric sparks."

"That girl used electric sparks to launch iron coins, causing powerful damage."

……

Heri asked curiously, "Lord Yarrow, can the electric current created from that strange stone launch iron coins?"

"In principle, it is somewhat possible..."

Yaro noticed the curiosity in the girl's eyes, and with a slight change of heart, he began to carefully explain the principles of electric current and the basic theory of "A Certain Scientific Railgun".

Heli was very curious about why mortals could use such a technique, and even harbored the idea of ​​"stealing" it. After hearing Yaro's serious explanation, she couldn't stop listening. Her little ears stood up like cat ears. Although she still didn't understand many things, she still managed to memorize Yaro's words word for word.

As Yaro continued to talk, her memory gradually reached its limit, and her bright eyes began to glaze over. After noticing this problem, Yaro stopped talking about those dry and boring facts and instead continued to describe the scenes in her memory.

As the story unfolded, Yaro gradually recalled some parts of it. After undergoing some demonic transformation, he roughly described it: "...That's how she was. She never gave up in the face of evil. Her strong will even made some other girls crazy about her."

As he spoke, Yaro used charcoal to draw a rough sketch of the impression.

……

The background is a huge stone bridge.

At the very front was a violent burst of lightning, and in the center of the lightning was a round, strange iron coin.

Behind the iron coin is a blurry outline of a girl, with short hair flowing and a pair of resolute eyes.

……

Yaro looked at it from all angles and shook his head, not quite satisfied.

"I still haven't fully captured that feeling."

After all, he hadn't been exposed to this story for a long time, and his memory of it had become hazy. At this point, his painting was practically a "semi-creation," so it was naturally difficult to reach the level of his recollection.

Yaro didn't ask for too much, and turned to Heli, saying, "That's about it. See if you can understand it."

Heri was somewhat dazed at this point. Forcing herself to stay alert, she stared at the drawing on the ground for a long time, her brow furrowed as she hesitated, "My lord... could you please save this drawing? I can think about it more later?"

Save it?

Yaro looked at the somewhat blurred carbon traces on the ground and hesitated, saying, "This... I'm afraid it's not easy to preserve."

Noticing the girl's dirty and tired appearance, Yaro suddenly had an idea and said, "How about I make you a tag with this design engraved on it?"

As it happened, the area that Yaro wanted her to study was electric current.

Since she is interested in this story, making the tag can also set an example for her and have a positive effect on her studies.

Heri was overjoyed: "This...is it alright? Won't it be too much trouble for you, sir?"

"It's alright, Heri. You keep operating the blower to raise the flame temperature. I'll prepare the materials."

Yaro opened his mouth with the air of an old landlord, and he was incredibly ruthless in his exploitation.

But at this moment, Heri was full of energy. She quickly climbed onto the bicycle-shaped pedal and pedaled with great effort, as if she had been injected with chicken blood. The bellows whirred as she pedaled, and as charcoal was added, the light gradually became brighter and the temperature rose higher and higher.

At this moment, Yarrow was searching through materials.

Gold and silver are too valuable. Since they are a gift for a little girl, they should not be left as a source of trouble for her.

Iron rusts easily, and lead is too toxic... so copper is the only option.

Copper has a melting point of just over 1,000 degrees Celsius, but it is very malleable. Since Yaro only intends to carve a single tag, there is no need to completely melt it; simply softening it will suffice.

Using his magical hand, he picked up a small copper ingot and placed it in the charcoal fire. Before long, his magical hand was able to knead the copper ingot.

Comparing the sketches he had drawn earlier, Yarrow quickly produced a bronze tag.

"Slurp!"

A wisp of smoke rose, and humid heat billowed out. Yaro took the palm-sized tag out of the water and handed it to Heri: "Consider this a small gift for your help."
