Take control of thunder and lightning from Hogwarts

Chapter 245 Discharge Test (seeking monthly ticket recommendation ticket)
It may be because Hogg finally withdrew his force. After the magic current hit the lamp, it flowed freely up and down along its metal rod.

And the whole electric light turned on just like that. Although the light flickered on and off, it was indeed lit by the current emitted by Hogg.

Of course, the light didn't last too long. After flickering for a few seconds, the desk lamp went out again.

At this time, Hogg seemed to be a child who didn't know that he had made a mistake. He tilted his head, raised his tongue in a big strip, and then looked at Anduin with wide-eyed eyes and an innocent expression.

As if to say, what's the matter, is something wrong?

Seeing this scene, even Qiqi covered her eyes with her hands speechlessly, this scene was too fake.

But after a while, Qiqi didn't hear Anduin's scolding voice, so she looked up curiously at her master.

At this time, Anduin didn't show a reproachful expression, but instead stared at the position of the desk lamp before, rubbing his chin, looking thoughtful.

"Master?" Qiqi didn't want to interrupt Anduin's thinking, but at this time Hogg was looking at him eagerly, and the entire second floor was also messed up, although it seemed that Hogg didn't damage the building. The desk lamp, but other places around it are not less crowded.

"Hogg, how much magic power did the current you just emit output?" Anduin asked calmly, ignoring Hogg's pretending to be stupid.

"Huh? Magic power?" Hogg tilted his head to one side, because his thoughts gradually tilted to the other side, at first it was just a silly expression, but now it looks more and more real, "What magic power, I don't know? "

"The plasma cannon you fired just now is obviously not at its maximum output power. Recall how much magic power you used." Anduin stared at Hogg with a straight face, making him break out in cold sweat.

"I only know that I was using up my power." Hogg didn't dare to pretend anymore, so he could only tell the truth, "But I really don't know how much magic power was used. I feel that it is probably more powerful than the normal plasma cannon More than half of the time, the magic power used is roughly a quarter of the usual."

"Well, I see, I have to test it again." After getting the answer he wanted, Anduin nodded in satisfaction, and then turned his head to look at Hogg, "Clean up this place quickly, and we'll clean it up later." Let me see you messing around with magic indoors, and I'll take your tactical vest away."

When Hogg heard this, he was extremely depressed. He thought Anduin had forgotten what happened before, but he still remembered it, but he didn't dare not listen to Anduin, so he had to be honest.

After teaching Hogg a lesson, Anduin quickly walked to the desk lamp, lifted it up, and then apparated back to the underground laboratory with the desk lamp.

After returning to the basement, Anduin drew out his wand, carefully concentrating the magic power, and soon a not-so-bright electric light popped out from the tip of the wand and came into contact with the desk lamp.

The desk lamp also flickered again, but both the brightness and the duration were smaller than the movement seen from Hogg just now.

"It seems that some magic power can be added." Anduin nodded, then adjusted the magic power again and cast the spell again, but since he only had this desk lamp, he was afraid of using too much force, so he could only adjust it a little bit.

After he adjusted the magic power four or five times in a row, he finally managed to keep the lamp on at a higher brightness.

The reason why he suddenly became interested in this desk lamp was that Hogg's act of lighting the desk lamp brought him inspiration.

That is the conversion between electrical energy and magic power, which may directly solve the problem of the source of magic power for him.

When he was studying the 'Wild Thunder' rune, he had been pursuing its role in combat, so he had always neglected that it also had corresponding functions in life and assistance.

The electricity generated by "Wild Thunder" is composed of magic power, so can ordinary electricity, or the electricity in the Muggle world, be converted into magic power through inversion.

This was also the first question that came to his mind after seeing Hogg directly drive electrical appliances such as desk lamps with electric current. If electric energy could be reversely converted into magic power, then the energy problem he had been worrying about would be solved easily.

Compared with the Muggle world, the electric energy is very abundant. As long as you get a machine like a diesel generator, you can generate electricity continuously.

Inspired by this, he decided to use this as a breakthrough to see if he could find a transformation method.

However, although lightning runes like 'Wild Thunder' can generate electricity, they are still somewhat different from normal electricity, especially the electricity in the Muggle world.

So he plans to focus on the research of transforming magic power next.

The next day, Anduin took a special time to go out, bought a civilian fuel generator, and a few barrels of gasoline, and borrowed the generator to cooperate with the electric energy conversion test.

After all, he has only seen that the electricity generated by lightning magic has an effect on electrical appliances, but he doesn't know how effective the electricity generated by Muggles can be.

After returning to the laboratory, Anduin started the generator and impatiently started the current conversion test.

The first thing he has to do is to check whether the electrical energy can be directly converted into magic power. After all, they all belong to elemental energy, and maybe they are interoperable in the first place.

Anduin pulled out the wires from the generator, and then connected the high-voltage voltmeter, coupling capacitor, measurement circuit, discharge calibrator, and double pulse generator to create a discharge unit that can accurately measure voltage and power.

Finally, they converged into the double-headed fork-like generator in his hand.

And the test method is also very simple. Anduin built a simple energy-absorbing magic circle, and then let the generator discharge at the energy-absorbing magic circle, to try whether it can directly generate magic power through the energy-absorbing magic circle.

But after several tests, Anduin found that he had taken it for granted, the electric energy released by the engine had no reaction to the energy-absorbing spell circle at all.

At the same time, he also performed a discharge test on several alchemy amulets, but there was no interaction.

Whether it is a magic circle or an alchemy tool, either the electric current passes through it directly, and then there is no fusion between them, or there is a repulsive reaction in itself, and the electric energy is rejected.

"Sure enough, it still doesn't work, but it's normal. If electric energy and magic power can be directly transformed into each other, wouldn't it have been discovered long ago?" Anduin shook his head calmly, obviously mentally prepared for this result.

"Then the next step is to try the Wild Thunder Rune. This rune should be able to react with the electrical energy in nature. After all, it was formed by absorbing a large amount of thunderstorm charge when it was born."
