Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1108 As Good As It Gets Code Entity New Program

"My lord, in addition to you ordering three meals and one soup, I have specially prepared a new dish for you and your wife——roasted wild boar."

Xia Duo looked at the dark pieces of meat wrapped in red-purple sauce on the dinner plate, and his appetite immediately subsided a bit, while Cook's introduction continued:

"This little wild boar was captured by the patrol team outside. It has been raised in the logistics department for almost half a month and is still very lively. This dish selects the tenderest part of its tenderloin and roasts it through multiple processes. The main ingredient of the sauce is a sour wild fruit that I discovered some time ago, it goes well with grilled food, please taste it!"

After Cook's introduction, before Xia Duo moved his chopsticks, Niya had already started.

Niya also had a portion of the same wild pork in front of her. Compared with Xia Duo's hesitation, Niya's enthusiasm for the new dish was obviously much higher.

"It tastes good! Xia Duo, try it!"

"Ah."

He couldn't hide from the left and right, so Xia Duo also took a small piece from the plate in front of him and put it in his mouth. The moment he took it, a strong sour smell exploded in his mouth.

But this sour taste came and disappeared faster, and before Xia Duo could react, it quickly transformed into salty, numb, slightly spicy, and a faint sweetness.

The quality of grilled meat is relatively firmer than that of cooking, but it is still tender and delicious. There is only one problem. After Xia Duo tasted it a few times, he can no longer ignore it, and that is——

The meat is not well done!

After careful recollection, you can even feel the bloody smell that has not been completely removed or covered up!

Xia Duo is not a hypocritical person, but when enjoying, he still hopes to get a perfect experience.

Afterwards, he didn't touch the wild pork anymore, but Niya ate it happily, as if she didn't notice these shortcomings at all.

After the meal, Cook asked Xia Duo and Niya for their opinions as usual. Niya gave a great praise, but Xia Duo said:

"The roasted wild boar still smells like blood, so it loses a lot of points. You can pour some spirits on the roast, which may improve it, or change it to fully cooked. You can try it yourself. In addition, the sour fruit is very good, You can try brewing some fruit wine."

"Yes, my lord."

……

Back in the Tower of Time, it was still early, so Niya went to the magic laboratory on the top floor to conduct experiments on the background fluctuation of the magic net, while Xia Duo went to the workshop on the public floor where he stored the code stone pillars.

After more than half a month, the materiality of the Codex pillar has been completely stabilized, and it can indeed be used as a Codex entity.

But when Xia Duo was about to make it according to the original design, he temporarily changed his mind. The original design was to make a stone pillar engraved with the text of the Codex and place it in the center of the square.

But what kind of stone pillars can demonstrate the spirit and authority of the code?

It is certainly possible to rely on magic, but Xia Duo wants people to understand the meaning of it at a glance from a distance.

The Codex Square that is about to be built is at the foot of the Tower of Time, and the Tower of Time is next to it. Unless Xia Duo can build the Codex Pillar taller and larger than the Tower of Time, it will always be overwhelmed by the Tower of Time.

Although the six Codex pillars he prefabricated looked quite tall and big, they were only two or three meters high and as thick as a person's arms. Compared with the Tower of Time, they were too inconspicuous.

The most important thing is that when prefabricating the stone pillars, he ignored the content of the code, and there might not be enough engravings on the stone pillars. Although there may be a magic version of the alternative, Xia Duo still hopes that there are codes on the code itself. content.

Magic items will expire one day, but the stone pillar body material transformed by the petrification magic derived from the ancient Sarukh shaman statue is enough to withstand the scouring and baptism of countless years of time.

The final ending of Netheril in that game on Earth was destruction. Although Xiaduo didn't think that the Netheril he was in would have that ending, he still subconsciously wanted to create some Something that lasts a long time.

Whether it is the impact of historical changes, or the establishment of an order that can continue to develop, or just some items that are sufficiently "solid" in material.

This is actually the realm of "immortality" that many sages in Xia Duo's hometown are pursuing, and Xia Duo is now on the path of a sage.

Even if he has already stepped on the road of longevity with half his foot, he can still travel through time and space to resonate with those sages spiritually.

For such a code entity that can definitely record and change history, the material of the stone pillar may be suitable, but the size is not good enough, and the shape is even worse!
It needs a little special design!

Although Xia Duo has never done professional design work, the design program can barely be considered a design, and there is a whole world for his reference, so he quickly "kneaded" a miniature model with water——

Below is a square cylinder base, the four sides are used to engrave the text of the code, and above the base is a thick book that is half open.

The title of the book is written on the spine - "Great Xia Law Code", and the cover and back cover of the book are embossed "Scales of Judgment"!
The Judgment Scale is inspired by the emblem of Xia Duo's hometown, but some adjustments have been made, the main Chinese watch has been replaced by a long sword, and the guard of the sword has become the two arms of the scale.

As for gears and ears of wheat, Xia Duo did not dare to use these elements for the time being, but replaced them with two proverbs in Chinese characters to guard the balance of judgment——

"Is it the land of the king in the whole world, and the land of the land is the king's minister"

In Xia Duo's vision, the future trials and judicial institutions of the territory will be marked by the "Code of Laws and Scales". Elements such as swords, codes of law, and scales will make it easy for people to see what they are doing.

……

After simply finalizing the first draft, Xia Duo is ready to start production, but now it will take six days at the earliest before the materiality of the statue's body material can be stabilized, and then it can be endowed with magical effects.

Fortunately, this version of the code entity can completely present the full text of the code without relying on magic. Therefore, Xia Duo can make a semi-finished product that looks like a finished product first.

Anyway, the planned land granting ceremony will not be until next month at the earliest, and this month has not even passed half, so he has enough time to complete the code entity.

Tonight, Xia Duo plans to polish the first draft and explore the actual production process.

Miniature models and large-scale sculptures are completely different things. For the former, Xia Duo can easily manipulate the water body, adjust the structure and shape at will, and transform the stone quality afterwards is also very easy.

But for large statues, Xia Duo can't control such a large and delicate water structure while casting spells to transform stone.

It is necessary to transform the stone with a rough shape first, and then carry out fine post-processing,
And Xia Duo himself is not good at masonry crafts, and the masons in the territory may not have such crafts. The most important thing is that this kind of stone is so strong that even senior masons may find it difficult to get started, let alone in granting fields. Completed before the ceremony.

In this case, magic became Xia Duo's only choice.

　Sorry to everyone, recently due to some personal matters, the code word time is unstable, and the update is also unstable. It will take about two or three days to finish processing. Today is only this update. Tomorrow depends on the situation. The day after tomorrow will definitely resume the update. In the future The update time is set at 8 o'clock in the evening, everyone can also come to the group to urge updates~~
thanks for your support! !
