Blooming Tower of the West Wind

The experimental equipment that Hipper received was a set of mithril brackets, and mithril is a good conductor of mana—this is actually very inaccurate. So far, no one has clarified what "mana" is, only One thing is beyond doubt, that is, Mithril can assist mages to complete a lot of work. It is a very precious material for casting spells. fluctuations and fluctuations.By the way, Hipper and Virgil used to partner to make a fortune in the Mithril futures market—often used to make magic circles or simply pens and rings.

However, Theron didn't understand what a magic circle was, so Hipper went on to explain to her what a magic circle was. That circle is a defensive circle."

Theron seemed to understand now, and then asked: "And then? This is also a magic-array?"

"Correct. This is a magic circle. Its function is to store the absorbed mana equally on each crystal. Usually, people think that the defensive crystal can only absorb harmful spells alone, then overload, and then explode, but it is not So..." When Hipper explained seriously, he found the doubt in Theron's eyes, "Uh...you didn't understand, did you?"

Theron nodded, then shook his head again, "'Everyone', who is it?"

"Ordinary people in the usual sense." Theron was still puzzled, and Hipper was a little impatient. She usually has no patience with people with underdeveloped intelligence, but for the sake of those sparkling emerald eyes, she still Be patient.Thanks to this patience, she suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said, "'General public'."

Theron nodded happily.Hipper breathed a sigh of relief, but then she had a new worry: Will she have a biased understanding of the word "general public" like "buy" and "customer"?

"and then?"

"Then this magic circle can help these absorbed things to conduct between crystals. In the past, if you want to resist large-scale damage spells at once, you must need a large and pure crystal, but if someone can develop and perfect this magic circle, it will You can use many small pieces of impure crystals." She pointed to a bag of small cut crystals on the table, this bag of scraps cost about ten silver coins, while crystals of the same weight cost ten gold coins, their The price difference is staggering - not counting the Mithril that makes them effectively equal.

This is undoubtedly a milestone discovery, but Hipper's last paper was criticized by the academic circles, and the journal even described it as "a regrettable genius-the youngest elemental mage in history who is addicted to strange skills and obscenity". The title came to accuse her of putting her research spirit on heresy alchemy.

The Archmage was depressed for a while: Isn't this worth a treatise?Until Aimee Cortes broke the news last month, no one questioned the article itself, all of them were questioning her "decadence".Her depression is not because of being denied and criticized, but because she feels unspeakably disappointed in the academic world. Trying to drag her into the water too.

There is no need for Theron to know such troubles, in fact she will not understand, she looks at Hipper, maybe she just wants to know the ending of this narrative that sounds like a story, maybe she just thinks Hipper is "extraordinary" .

"So what flows between the mithril and the crystal? No one knows, but one thing is certain..."

"What is it?" Look, this little girl really can't wait to know the ending.

"There will be heat during the overload process, that is to say, no matter what the magic becomes and is absorbed, this process will cause heat. I think there must be a proportional relationship between the heat generated and the magic power consumed during the casting process. Do you understand? ?”

Theron shook his head honestly, "How can I help you?"

Hipper suddenly smiled, "You can just cast spells as you like."

"Casting spells means, no matter what, it's okay to play with elements?"

"Yes. You like that, don't you?"

Theron nodded honestly.

"But not today, I have to install the instrument."

Theron looks like she wants to help, but Hipper politely asks her not to move.Her hand had already begun to draw lines in the air, and the dazzling golden traces tore apart one crack after another, and the Son of Earth and the Son of Water ran out of the cracks, orderly installing the clumsy shelves.

Of course, the shelf is not expensive Mithril material, it seems that it is only used to support the hanging magic circle and the transparent container, so that the Mithril magic circle on the top can be immersed in water.

Theron was very curious about all this, but Hipper said it couldn't be played.In the corner was the big feather table she had seen before, and it was already full of things, all of which had just been dismantled. Hipper took out the things one by one and handed them to the son of the earth who was waiting nearby.The things gradually spread out into a large stall, making people wonder where these things were originally placed, since there was almost nothing there when I came last time.

Hektra, on the other hand, disappeared with them after the children of water appeared. When they came back, every elemental creature carried something. There was a writing desk hidden in Hektra's round and huge belly, probably because the shape was not very good. Fits well, the corners of the desk protrude a little.Then came a small bookshelf and a set of writing instruments. Hipper pointed to a place for them to unload the goods, and finally took the work notes from a son of water and put them in the drawer of the desk.

Hipper inserted the golden feather into the machine near the desk, and a vague light penetrated into the bright silver metal conduit connected to it. A wind wall appeared in front of them. Hipper nodded in satisfaction, and Theron was curious. She tried to touch the wind wall, but was pushed back by a gust of wind, and the harder she pushed, the greater the pushback the wall gave.

She looked up at Hipper and said, "It's not the same as that day."

Hipper nodded: "That's right, I changed a magic circle, look at the ground."

Now Theron knows the magic circle, the circle of characters around the wall is similar to the one that Hipper carved in the living room upstairs, and the straight "magic circle" under the wind wall looks like a pattern inlaid on the ground.However, Theron soon started to play, she kept leaning against the wind wall, and then was pushed back by the wind wall, and called Hektra, who was so busy, to come and play together.

The good-tempered water lord couldn't cope with the demands of both sides at the same time, but the child's beautiful emerald eyes made it impossible to refuse. Hipper came to make a rescue in time, and while pulling Theron, he gave her a water polo.

"Okay, don't hit it, the time supported by the feathers is limited, let's play with this." She threw the water polo out, and it would bounce back when it hit the wind wall.Surprisingly, Theron's physical coordination is very good, running around to catch the ball, without letting the water polo fall to the ground.

It was enviably carefree.
