Lord of Arcane

Chapter 2285

As Xia Duo had expected, Prince Aben did not refuse his offer of a thousand arcane crystals in exchange for two cheap energy-conducting material preparation methods.

Now that the details of the transaction have been negotiated, the subsequent transaction itself is very simple, just pay the money and deliver the goods.

And considering that he has stayed in Inupuras for more than ten days, which is in line with the time for raising the crystallization of arcane energy mentioned to the other party before, Xia Duo did not make any installment payment, but provided a one-time payment of [-] arcane energy Can crystallize.

而对方提供的则是——标号1402、598这两种廉价导能材料的制备方法，以及差不多十分之一立方的208类灵质材料（10万奥能结晶差不多就是0.1立方米）。

To be honest, Xia Duo was very satisfied with this transaction. If the people of Netheril knew that Imasca had such cheap psychic materials, they would probably be crazy happy.

Xia Duo still remembered the price of purchasing the Twisted Phantom Core. One piece was 10 gold coins, and its volume was not much larger than the Ao Neng Crystal.

However, the ectoplasm material labeled 208 cannot be separated, or this material is only similar in nature to ectoplasm, and is still different from the real ectoplasm.

But it can also be used to make a brain, which Xia Duo has already verified. As for the tower spirit of the mage tower, Xia Duo has not tried it yet, so he can't say for sure, but he feels that the brain and the tower spirit are not essentially the same. The difference should be possible.

Taking a step back, even if it can't be used as a tower spirit, it is enough to make a brain. Xia Duo now wants to know what will happen when the brain expands infinitely.

Really infinite deduction?
Maybe not, but it will definitely be much more useful than the current brain!
……

After the transaction was completed, Xia Duo originally wanted to set off immediately to chase Percher's magic ship. Of course, this was not his real purpose. The relationship between him and Cormanthor was actually not as good as it seemed to outsiders. His real purpose was to experience it The transmission center of the Purple Star Tower.

However, Prince Aben kindly asked him to stay, and there was another news from Guleben, saying that he had found the origin of Meow, and his subordinates were rushing back with a large number of Meow and related Mulan people. .

So, Xia Duo stayed in Inupuras for a few more days. Of course, for him now, it didn't matter where he was, as the floating city was by his side.

In fact, the time he spent in the Floating Void City these days was far longer than the time outside.

……

time acceleration zone.

Xia Duo was thinking about the preparation method of the two cheap energy-conducting materials traded while making the brain. It was almost exactly the same as he expected. What Imasca provided was not a method for mass production of secret devices, but It is a method of purely artificial production by craftsmen without the assistance of secret devices that control the power of creation.

What's even more exasperating is that the two materials are also composite materials with a lot of matrix, including Mithril!
He roughly estimated that if it is purely handmade, even if the success rate is 100%, the cost will be several times that of Mithril of the same quality. Only mass production with secret devices can lower the price.

But the problem is that Imaska ​​kept a high degree of secrecy about the production method of the secret weapon. Xia Duo had asked Prince Aben several times, but he declined on the grounds that it was not suitable for beginners or that it was a state secret.

If he hadn't found a new direction for the Creation Mystery Lock, he would have even wanted to make a vote before leaving. The formal transaction would not work, and crooked ways might not be possible.

In addition, referring to the matrix material analysis from the known creation formulas of the two energy-conducting materials, Xia Duo speculates that Imaska ​​has definitely mastered the higher-level creation principles.

Otherwise, how could it be possible to research it within a few days with the precise material ratio of label 1402!
There must be some kind of guiding principle, which kind of substrate should be selected if energy conduction properties are needed, similar to the combination of monarch, minister and assistant in the ancient pharmacopoeia of Xia Duo's hometown.

If there is no guidance in this general direction, there are tens of thousands of materials in the world and almost endless creation methods. It is not surprising that there is no result, let alone a few days, even if there is no result in a few years.

As soon as he returned to the floating city, Xia Duo tried to use the power of creation to prepare these two materials. Although the matrix contains Mithril, it is not scarce, and it is available in the warehouse of the Tower of Time.

However, without the assistance of relevant secret devices, it is almost impossible to control the precise effect of the power of creation. Xia Duo tried more than a dozen times but ended in failure. In the end, he had to admit that even if the formula of creation was right in front of him, he could not even verify the power of creation. Neither true nor false can be done!

So we can only look forward to the performance of the Creation Mystery after it is completed.

He is now working overtime to make the smart brain, which also has this consideration. The smart brain imitates Xia Duo's own thinking mode. On the way of wisdom, the upper limit is so high, but the calculation speed can be almost infinitely improved.

This is what it means to expand.

If a purely computational problem that does not require experiments, and the result can be obtained immediately after just thinking about it, it will undoubtedly save a lot of time for the user.

Xia Duo is not a god, he can't get a result just by looking at the data, and even he thinks that a god may not be able to do it, because some complicated problems can't be calculated by simple calculation, but also need the cooperation of related algorithms.

But in any case, the expansion of the brain is already on the Sunshine Avenue.

……

A day later, Xia Duo received the news that Guleben asked to see him, immediately put down his work, walked out of the floating city, and came to Inupuras.

It was still outside the temporary residence, but this time Guleben brought a group of people over. Xia Duo saw that there were dozens of bald heads with sad expressions among them. With such obvious features, they were obviously Mulan people.

In addition, in the distance, there is a larger metal cage than before. It may be because it is too big and has not been covered with black cloth. The meowing inside is continuous, miserable and mournful, terrified and sad.

Xia Duo frowned, bypassed Gouleben who was saluting him, walked to the metal cage first, and sent the cage and the cat inside to the Floating Void City.

He didn't count them in detail, but he estimated that there were about a hundred of them, of which less than one tenth was pure black, and more of them had black and white spots on their bodies, and there were very few other colors. Among them, Xia Duo The orange cats I want to see the most, at a glance, there are only one or two.

Seeing that Xia Duo made the cage disappear, Guleben came to Xia Duo again and explained everything in front of him: "My people have tracked down the settlement of the Muran people near the southern mountain range, and we can confirm that the area near Inupuras is All the pure black meows come from there."

"Then those people you brought back are—"

"They are the ones in charge of cultivating meows in that settlement. I thought Master Athos might need them, so I ordered someone to bring them back." Guleben replied sternly.

It was similar to Xia Duo's guess, but he didn't really care about the breeders. He felt that there might be one or two elders hidden among those people, who could bring him the real secret of the Mulan people.
