Lord of Arcane

Chapter 2237 Universal Launcher

The starter itself is not beyond Xia Duo's understanding, and the technology used is also the first version of the starter that Jay had studied before, as well as the supporting resonance excitation method of the arcane field he gave to the other party.

But Jay cleverly integrated the resonance excitation method of the arcane field into the original starter, and made more in-depth optimizations. Now this starter can almost perfectly play the role of power source in Xia Duo's cognition.

It was just such a small metal cube, Xia Duo liked it no matter how he saw it, he held it in his hand and played with it carefully for a while, and then, under Niya's reminder, he took out the main body of the lamp from the box.

"Ho Ho, it's time to witness the miracle!"

As he said that, Xia Duo put the side of the small square engraved with a symbol similar to [1] upwards into a square groove reserved for the base of the lamp.

The next moment, the colorless transparent crystal inlaid above the lamp suddenly emitted a bright light, illuminating the corner of the study like daytime.

During this process, Niya could see all of Xia Duo's movements clearly. She knew very well that Xia Duo did nothing but put the small metal block into the groove of the base of the magic lamp. The magic effect of lamps.

Of course, that crystal is not a luminous body, but only exists as an attachment carrier, stabilizer and light source magnifying glass for the spell [Light Art].

It is obviously a magic item but it has the effect of a magic scroll, but the threshold for using a magic scroll cannot be so low!
Ordinary people also need to be trained to use magic scrolls, and that kind of training is essentially part of mage training.

Now that such a magic item with no barriers to threshold appeared, the shock in Niya's heart could hardly be overstated. Now it is just a magic lamp. Will there be magic weapons that ordinary people can easily use in the future?
Even ordinary people can use magic, so what is the meaning of the existence of mages?

Although a long time ago, Niya knew the future development direction from Xia Duo, which is to give everyone the opportunity to receive magic education, and then there will be no obvious distinction between ordinary people and mages.

But before that day came, the spell props that could be used by ordinary people appeared first. She was so caught off guard, but she personally took it from a boy who was much younger than her. Somewhat unacceptable.

Under the influence of Xia Duo, Niya does not lack the identity of an ordinary person, but her previous identity was more inclined to a relatively distant future state.

The ordinary people she agrees with are not the ordinary people who don't know anything now, but the ordinary people who have received magic education in the future society Xia Duo described to him, and can be called mages now.

Moreover, Niya's recognition also caters to Xia Duo to a certain extent. As a native of Nether, how could she be transformed by Xia Duo into a state of identifying with ordinary people at this stage in just a few years?

……

Noticing that Niya's expression was a bit unnatural, Xia Duo didn't think too much about it, but it was the first time she saw this kind of spell prop that could be used without the ability to cast spells.

To be honest, he himself was also very shocked, but he had already been shocked once when Jay showed the starter, and this time the degree was much lighter.

"Niya, do you think if this kind of magic lamp is sold in the territory?" After finishing speaking, Xia Duo added, "Without considering the price."

"If you don't consider the price, of course many people will buy it! Human beings are not underground creatures. The perception of the outside world mainly depends on vision and light. Even if you don't need it, you will feel at ease if you leave it on at home!"

After such a question and answer, Niya's mood also calmed down a lot, and before Xia Duo asked, she continued: "If you consider the price, except for those adventurers and businessmen, only the people of the Great Xia Territory may buy it. .”

She analyzed it from a practical point of view, not counting the rich. Among the civilians in the two territories, only the people in the Daxia Territory have a need for night lighting.

Learning is popular in Daxia, but most people have jobs during the day, so many people study at night, whether it is the enlightenment class (adults learn textbooks for children), or the laws and regulations of the territory.

But the Savile Territory does not have this atmosphere. Even if the order of the two places has begun to merge, it will take time for it to take effect and become popular among the people.

"What you said makes sense, but don't underestimate the thirst for knowledge and advancement of the people in the north. As long as the price of this magic lamp is not too outrageous, I believe many people will be willing to buy it."

Not only the citizens, but Xia Duo also thought about the infrastructure of the territory. At present, most of the roads in the territory are paved with masonry, but street lights are still a new thing.

Only a few road corners will hang a wind lamp fueled with grease to guide the night patrol.

At the same time, some public places, such as public security stations, which require people on duty day and night, also need more stable lighting.

……

After discussing with Niya for a while, Xia Duo called Jay himself over and asked face to face: "How much can the cost of this magic lamp be controlled at present? Is there a mass production plan?"

"The cost of the material I made by myself is about 20 gold coins, and it will not exceed 30 gold coins if the labor is included. However, I wasted a lot of materials when I made it. If it is a skilled worker, if it is mass-produced, the labor cost should It can be controlled within 20 gold coins."

"so cheap?!"

Niya at the side couldn't believe it when she heard this. If it was only 20 gold coins, many people would be willing to buy one even in the Savile collar. It is not too difficult to buy a magic lamp with 20 gold coins. Decide.

"This means that the more you produce, the more you can dilute the cost. I haven't included the loss of the alchemy circle. If it is mass-produced, then this magic lamp will basically only cost one material!"

For Jay's supplement, Xia Duo still quite agrees. The production cost of a magic item is mainly composed of the cost of materials, labor, alchemy circle, energy, etc.

Among them, energy is negligible today with Mythra, and the cost of the alchemy circle can be diluted by a large amount. For the rest of the labor, the most technical content of this magic lamp is the starter.

The activation plan outside the arcane field provided by Jay supports the highest level 1 spells, but this magic lamp does not need such an advanced activation device at all. It is just a 0-level trick, which can be simplified to 0-level activation device.

In addition, the arcane field is only available in the Floating Void City for the time being, and it is also limited to the area. If the territory is used, this area can also be used.

This reduces the cost of materials, and reduces the difficulty of production, that is, labor costs.

And labor can also be divided into many levels. This kind of production at the 0-ring level can be handled by apprentice technicians. Even if a starter is installed for the set alchemy circle, ordinary people can go to work after training.

In other words, the labor cost is also very low.

As for the materials, according to Jay, it should be controlled within 10 gold coins.
