Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1608 Returning to Second Generation Mass Production
The construction quality of the members of the Tower of Time is good. Xia Duo checked it carefully twice, and found no problems. After replacing the energy buffer core, he restarted it.

The next step is to take the [Mythra] device out of the portable space and activate it. Compared with the previous tedious steps, these two steps are much simpler to activate.

Soon, the arcane energy field permeated around the base square again.

And the Ao Neng crystallization extractor and the air manufacturing plant that stopped working during the shutdown maintenance period also restarted the work that could not be seen at a glance.

"By the way, I almost went to this!"

Seeing the continuous air blowing from the air manufacturing factory, Xia Duo remembered to check the air condition of the current space. The air loss rate measured before is only short-term data, and may not be accurate in the long run.

Especially when there is an air manufacturing factory that continuously produces air, the transformation of elements in the plane may also be affected.

In fact, it will be affected, which is why "elemental infection" can become one of the main ways to transform the plane.

As for the other main method - "root reshaping", Xia Duo has not yet grasped the root reshaping of a normal plane.

If the game fails, the base of the floating city will be ruined.

The elemental infection is relatively mild, and it is basically unlikely to cause any major troubles. After all, the carrying capacity of the plane itself is quite strong.

Of course, correspondingly, it will take longer for elemental infection to transform the plane.

But Xia Duo didn't care, he didn't need to make rectification in place at once, just take it slowly.

……

After re-determining the air loss rate during the transformation of elements in the plane, Xia Duo slightly adjusted the output flow of the air manufacturing plant, and it was all right.

In the end, he returned to the Tower of Time with a pile of Arcane Crystals.

……

The study on the top floor of the Tower of Time.

Seeing that it took Xia Duo a while to come back, Niya asked with concern, "Is there anything wrong with the blue crystal plane?"

"No, everything is fine, don't worry."

"Will the magic restriction treaty affect us? I'm really worried that you hurried to the blue crystal plane after reading the supplement of the Arcane Federation."

Niya put down her pen and looked at Xia Duo seriously, but Xia Duo couldn't help feeling depressed when she heard Niya mentioning the magic restriction treaty again, thinking of the floating city under construction.

But seeing Niya's worried expression, he still couldn't bear to say something like "the total share of Netheril is not enough for him to use for a day".

"Don't worry, the magic restriction treaty has little effect on us!" Xia Duo said calmly.

I don't know if Niya really believed it, or if it was to ease his heart. In short, after Xia Duo said so, Niya nodded seriously, and then continued to complete her test paper.

Xia Duo stayed with Niya for a while, then rushed to the public floor to prepare the workshop for the production of the second-generation communication magic weapon.

The mass production of the second-generation magic weapon is related to the future income growth of the Tower of Time, and related to the follow-up construction resources of the Floating Void City. Xia Duo is always on his mind.

Come to Workshop 051.

When Xia Duo opened the door, he saw a mass of scattered magical auras. His heart tightened, and he hurried forward to check. As expected, a magic mechanic had an accident while connecting the magic net for the communication instrument parts.

"Martin, what happened? How many times have I had the same question?!"

Before Xia Duo could speak, a stern voice came from the corner. Xia Duo looked back, and it was Ganal, the director of the Department of Magical Technology.

It turns out that Ganal has been watching here since he knew Xia Duo was concerned about the second-generation communication magic weapon. Over time, he has mastered the entire production process by himself.

Seeing that Martin made mistakes repeatedly, he couldn't help losing his temper even though he was mild-tempered. When he saw Xia Duo coming in, he quickly suppressed his anger and went forward to salute:
"President, I'm sorry that I didn't teach them well and let you see such a scene."

"Never mind, Martin, you go on."

After finishing speaking, Xia Duo pulled Ganal to the corner and said, "They are all newcomers, so be patient."

Strictly speaking, these newcomers are not only newcomers to the Department of Magical Technology, they have actually been exposed to magic for less than three years, but they have already shown talents far beyond their peers.

Xia Duo attaches great importance to their future, instead of negating them with the current troubles.

"Yes, I understand." Gardner nodded emphatically. They are all members of the Advancement Society. How could he pretend to be mean and target someone specifically, but——

Thinking of this, Ganal couldn't help showing a wry smile, "President, I believe in Martin's talent, but he may not be suitable for the job of a magic mechanic. I hope the president can agree to let me replace him. If he is forced to If he presses here, it may be the harm to him."

After speaking, he looked at Xia Duo frankly, to show that he had no selfishness.

Xia Duo thought about this, and then said solemnly: "I didn't think carefully and pulled all the new mages into the magic mechanic department, but in the case of other production lines not stopping, to ensure that the second-generation communication magic weapon mass production, what do you think should be done?"

"The quality of this group of newcomers is very good, including Martin, but he is not suitable for this job. I suggest that Martin be replaced first, and then adjust the affiliation according to their respective wishes and skills."

"Okay, just do as you say!"

Xia Duo decisively delegated power to Gardner, and the production line management did start from him, but in terms of real handling time and experience, he is no longer as good as Gardner.

This time, he pulled all the batches of new mages who were temporarily promoted into the Magic Technician Department. It was indeed because he was unstable and a little anxious.

After thinking for a while, he reminded Gardner: "Talk to Martin well, let him not have any psychological burden, no one is omnipotent, just play a role in the field you are good at."

"Yes, President, I understand."

……

After some episodes, it was finally time to look at the products. Xia Duo asked Ganal: "How many finished products have been produced now? What is the yield rate?"

"There are not many finished products, only four pieces, and the finished product rate is ridiculously low, maybe less than [-]%!"

After finishing speaking, Gardner seemed to think of something, "Such a low yield rate is not caused by Martin, but mainly because a lot of materials were wasted in the initial attempts."

"What about now? What's the yield rate?" Xia Duo asked again.

"The current yield rate is about [-]% if Martin is not included. Of course, even if he is included, the yield rate will not be as low as [-]%."

"Four percent--"

Xia Duo felt relieved, forty percent almost doubled the cost, and based on the sales price he set for the second-generation communication magic weapon, it would be profitable to double the cost.

Of course, in order to alleviate the financial pressure on the Tower of Time, the higher the yield and profit margin, the better.

"Look at the finished product first, is it in that box?" Xia Duo asked Ganal, pointing to a standard 6*6 material box on the wall not far away.

"Yes, I'll take it for the president."

With that said, Gardner trotted towards the material box.
