Magic Mech Wars Steel Torrent-Chapter 66 Revelation

Continue to deal with the subsequent issues.

Among them was Senior Josh, who had already agreed to join their camp in the future, and they had already discussed matters such as his salary after graduation.

However, his research was still very difficult to achieve at present.

For example, the most realistic question was whether the ice element in the icy and snowy environment could be relatively easily transformed into the fire element.

Transformation? It was possible, but it required consuming magic power to reconcile.

Where did the magic power come from? Magic cores, magic crystals, natural magic stones, and magic storage items could all be used, but without exception, none of them were affordable for commoners.

And the problem was, if I already had magic power, wouldn't it be better for me to directly generate the fire element to make a fire?

"Currently, my research is to save the magic power consumption for transformation by making magic items, at least ensuring that it is lower than the consumption of directly generating the fire element with magic power. In this way, by cooperating with items that slowly store magic power, it will be able to transform elements better."

"In this case, it can basically meet the needs of civilian use. For example, in our kingdom during winter, commoners can also keep warm without burning firewood. If we continue to optimize it, reduce costs and increase effici

ency, not to mention maintaining it all day long, but at least it can ensure heating at night."

"But for the rapid element transformation you want, junior, I still don't think it's possible, or the efficiency will be negative."

Josh said his problems with some embarrassment.

It seemed that he could make some things for civilian use, and so far, it had been very successful. If he continued to study it, he would surely be able to make very good civilian element transformation, which could achieve heating in winter and cooling in summer.

In simple terms, he was like the person who invented air conditioners and heaters.

He might not be the first one, and he might not be the first person who wanted to reduce the cost to an extremely low level and increase the efficiency to ensure civilian use.

But he was definitely a lucky person who, on this basis, happened to meet people like Su Lian who were willing to sponsor him to do this "meaningless" thing.

...

Because.

To do such a thing, first of all, a magician with alchemy and other related knowledge was needed, and in this world, few noble magicians would do such things for commoners. Even in the eyes of some people, commoners were so-called pariahs.

Even if there were some who wanted to do it, the time and money consumed in research and development were beyond the reach of few people.

The world was so big, with more than a hundred countries and regions. There must be some magicians who were rich and had such ideas, right?

Well, if it was successfully developed, who would popularize it?

The production process still required magicians, which was the labor cost; and since it was making magic items, there was naturally also the cost of materials.

After finally making it, under such costs, even if it was sold at the most affordable low-profit price, how many commoners could afford to buy it?

Those who were slightly wealthy could definitely afford to buy a large amount of firewood, or even directly use charged magic items. Why would they buy this complicated new thing?

Trying to make it high-end?

Then I'm even more sorry. Those who were richer might directly hire someone to set up a magic formation in their own homes, or they might even be able to support a magician themselves. Why would they need yours?

So, this "magic element transformation" was really useless in this world.

Magicians didn't need it themselves, commoners couldn't afford it, the middle class didn't like it, and the rich didn't care about it.

...

"Come over here." Su Lian didn't directly answer Josh but motioned for him to follow.

Josh was a bit puzzled, but he still followed Su Lian to the cafeteria of the military factory.

Entering the kitchen directly, Su Lian boiled a pot of water under Josh's puzzled gaze.

What was he going to do?

"Use the fire element to help heat it up." Su Lian said.

"Okay." Josh used his fire magic to speed up the process of boiling a large pot of water.

Su Lian casually picked up a radish top and threw it on Josh's arm.

"Does it hurt?" Su Lian asked.

"A bit. If it were a stone, it should hurt more." Josh still didn't quite understand what Su Lian was going to say.

"Then why do you think it hurts? Clearly, it's not the fighting spirit or magic attack formed by elements. How can it have the power to make you feel pain?" Su Lian asked.

"This..." Josh's mind went blank for a moment, and the fire magic he was maintaining in his hand became a bit unstable.

"Pay attention to heating." Su Lian threw another radish top.

"Okay, okay." Josh quickly stabilized it.

"Remember, Senior Josh, don't tell anyone else what I'm about to tell you before you get my permission, including the researchers under you in the future." Su Lian pointed at Josh with the radish in his hand.

"Okay, okay, junior, go ahead." Josh nodded repeatedly.

At this moment, his heart had already started to come up with many divergent speculations!

"Because of the existence of elements in our world, anyone will first think of relying on the condensed fighting spirit and magic power, especially when these two kinds of power reach their peak, they can even reach the level of destroying the heavens and the earth."

"Therefore, people often ignore another kind of power that has always existed in our lives, a power that we have been using all the time but have been ignoring."

"Pure physical power."

Su Lian moved the radish in his hand and made a gesture as if he was about to throw it.

"The power of throwing things, ordinary punches and kicks, and waving weapons?" Josh quickly understood.

"Yes. In terms of weapons, do you know what is the best application of this kind of power currently?" Su Lian asked.

"Throwing weapons?" Josh said the answer uncertainly.

"Yes. Traditional catapults and archers in any army have actually been using this kind of power all the time. But why has no one noticed it?" Su Lian asked.

"Because this is something that is already very common in life, just like people need to eat and drink. It's something that is commonly used. It's just that catapults and bows and arrows have slightly expanded the application mode." Josh said quickly.

It had to be said that as expected of someone engaged in research, his thinking was really flexible and changeable.

"Exactly. It's such a common power that it has been ignored." Su Lian also sighed slightly.

In his previous life.

Bows and arrows, catapults, these were ultimately the most basic kinetic energy weapons, which were invented a long time ago. But it was not until thousands of years later that they were truly utilized.

Not to mention in this world of magic and fighting spirit, there was the "elemental power" which was much stronger than kinetic energy. Who would notice this tiny kinetic energy?

So Su Lian understood very well why even now in this world, no one had realized the limit of the "kinetic energy" power.

Because magic, fighting spirit, and this "elemental power" were really, really powerful!

...

"Let's tentatively call this moving physical power physical energy or kinetic energy." Su Lian said simply.

"Kinetic energy is simpler." Josh said.

Su Lian smiled. Even though he had deliberately given another name, Josh still chose the word "kinetic energy" somehow.

"The water is boiling. Put the lid on the pot." Su Lian suddenly changed the subject.

"Okay." Although Josh didn't know why, he still did as he was told.

Because he had used fire magic to assist in heating, a large pot of water quickly boiled. Even after removing the fire magic, the flames at the bottom were still burning, making the water keep boiling.

"Bang, bang, bang..."

The steam kept pushing against the pot lid, and the collision of the metal made such a sound.

Josh looked at Su Lian, then at the pot lid lifted by the steam, and it seemed that he understood something.

Seeing this, Su Lian directly asked.

"No one is touching the pot lid. What kind of power gives it 'kinetic energy' at this moment?" Su Lian asked.

Although he knew that at this time it should be called mechanical energy, there was no such definition in this world yet, so he temporarily used this term instead.

"It's... the flames burning below, the power of the fire element." Josh's expression gradually became clear!

It was as if he had seen something!

"Did you use any special magic items?" Su Lian asked.

"No." Josh answered.

"Did you use any additional magic power for driving?" Su Lian asked.

"No." Josh answered.

"Then what was used?" Su Lian finally asked.

"Firewood. The fire element generated by the simple burning of firewood continuously transforms and provides kinetic energy!" Josh's tone gradually became excited.

Su Lian smiled with satisfaction.

This was exactly the result he wanted.

He also put down the radish in his hand and used his magic power to control the thrown radish top and throw it towards the garbage pile.

...

"Although I haven't studied your research in detail and don't know the specific content, I hope this inspiration can be helpful to you."

"Go back and continue your research, the great inventor who will go down in history in the future."

"I have high hopes for you."

Su Lian patted Josh on the shoulder from the side and said in a sincere tone.

"Lord Lian, I'll go back and start researching right away!" Josh said solemnly, and then directly ran out of the kitchen excitedly!

At this moment, his heart was filled with numerous divergent thoughts, which required him to experiment and explore one by one!

"Also, you don't have to change the way you address me, do you?" Su Lian touched his nose a bit embarrassedly.

To be honest, although in Josh's eyes, it was his hint, he still felt a little ashamed of himself for using the wisdom of the predecessors in his previous life again.

"But Lord Lian... I still prefer the address of Lord Su a little more." Su Lian said to himself and smiled.

Satisfied, he also left the kitchen, leaving behind a pot of boiling water, which made the chefs who entered the kitchen later feel extremely puzzled.

...

After that, he went to meet the other senior students and senior sisters he had recruited from the academy. He helped them solve some problems or simply chatted with them to enhance their relationship. Then he left the military factory satisfied and took away some of the "Nostalgia" bombs in stock.

Although Uncle Cam really wanted him to take them all away, after all, he always felt that these unstable things were like time bombs. But obviously, if he took so many of them from the battlefield, it would be strange if the military department didn't suspect something.

So...

Most likely, the remaining ones could only be given to those bored guys in the military research institute. Later, they could find an opportunity to use them as fireworks.

Or it might be good to use them to blow up fish?

Anyway, let Uncle Cam and the others handle it as they saw fit, as long as no one was hurt.
