Chapter 879: 274. Continuous linkage_3
He took out a rock soil magic stone from his magic pouch and extracted enough rock and soil energy.
100 million points of thunder and lightning energy would require a single Type I Elemental Reactor to work for over two thousand seconds to produce such an amount.
To save time, Noland Lee decided to use five Type I Elemental Reactors all at once.
In less than ten minutes, he had obtained a lightning energy ball containing 100 million points of thunder and lightning energy.
Next was the luck-dependent task of energy crafting.
Perhaps due to having overspent a bit of his luck when condensing the Elemental Energy Reactor, he had to try three times before successfully making one Magic Guide Crystal.
...
This object was roughly the size of a forefinger, a standard cylinder, and somewhat resembled a number five battery from the world before he crossed over.
It shone a bright blue with the color of thunder and lightning energy, had a smooth surface, and was wrapped in a hard layer of rock and soil energy membrane, weighing almost nothing.
Noland Lee cast a Deconstruction and checked the object’s panel.
Just as the system had predicted, it could provide 10,000 points of computational power per second.
Meanwhile, Noland Lee had to continuously supply it with thunder and lightning energy to satisfy the energy consumption of the output computational power.
The energy consumption rate of thunder and lightning energy per second was one percent of the computational power output per second, which was 100 points per second.
“With this thing, I should be able to build the legendary mental array main controller, right?”
After reading the deconstruction results of the Magic Guide Crystal, Noland Lee was just about to step out of the compartment to discuss with Nolin when he realized that the system messages in his mind were not yet over!
The deconstruction results of the Magic Guide Crystal itself had a miraculous link with the results of something he had deconstructed a long time ago!
[System Message:]
[“Magic Guide Crystal” and “Alchemical Access Device” deconstruction results have triggered a linkage!]
[You have obtained a new predictive scheme:]
[Name] Magic Access Meter (tentatively named)
[Type] Alchemy-oriented magical product
[Use]
This item can utilize the computational power of the Magic Guide Crystal.
[Alchemy Formula]
Alchemy Material: 1 Alchemical Access Device interaction Array/Formation, 200 kilograms of All-purpose Metal Powder, 50 kilograms of Re-forged Association’s high-quality Alchemical Alloy, 3 kilograms of pure Clear Reagent, 30 million points of Thunder and Lightning Energy…
Alchemy Symbols: حاسوبشخصي…
Alchemy Formula: Omitted
Success Rate of Scheme: 35%, equivalent to your level in ‘Alchemy Symbols and Array/Formation Studies.’
Product of the Scheme: A magic access meter (tentatively named) capable of calling upon the computational power of the Magic Guide Crystal.
…
“Eh? Alchemical Access Device?”
After scouring his memory, Noland Lee suddenly came to a realization:
“Oh~ so it’s that thing. It’s the alchemical device I used to collect Fissure Corridor intelligence at the Alchemy Academy with Fars Scott’s Alchemy Card.”
Noland Lee tapped his palm lightly, recalling where he had encountered this device before.
The main body of the Alchemical Access Device looked like a cylinder with an alchemy sphere floating inside it. noveldrama
While using it, the metal sphere would project a screen onto the wall.
By rotating, tapping lightly, or touching the sphere, you could interact with the interface on the screen.
Noland Lee called up the “Alchemical Access Device’s” deconstruction results, nodded slowly, and commended himself for not skimping on Energy Points and decisively deconstructing it then and there.
The Alchemical Access Device also used energy as a data carrier.
However, it utilized the four elemental energies, whereas the Magic Guide Crystal used thunder and lightning energy.
Putting aside which access meter, the Alchemical or the Magic, was more advanced, Noland Lee decided to first create the device before discussing.
Noland Lee was full of drive when he suddenly felt his soul touched lightly.
This was a sign that someone was attempting to communicate with him through ‘Soul Perception.’
“Noland? Are you busy?” Denise Green’s voice arose in his mind:
“I’ve already prepared breakfast.”
“Uh? Is it daybreak?” Noland Lee pulled out his pocket watch to check.
Indeed, it was.
Before he knew it, he and Nolin had been busy all night; it was already past six in the morning.
“I’ll be right there, Denise.” Noland responded in his mind.
“Sure.”
Noland Lee cut off the ‘Soul Perception’ and left the compartment.
“Nolin, I’ve managed to create the Magic Guide Crystal, and I’ve even thought of another way to use it. After breakfast, let’s give it a try.”
“Okay, Sir.” Nolin pushed up her glasses and continued to work at her desk.
Seeing Nolin in her ultimate workaholic mode, Noland Lee couldn’t help but say:
“Take a break too. Go up to the ground level and enjoy the ocean, beach, sunlight… just don’t leave the range of Island No. 33.”
“Sunlight… beach…” Nolin’s gaze became distant, as if these two things were both familiar and strange to her.
“Yes, Sir, you are right.” Nolin took a deep breath and stood up:
“Taking a proper break is conducive to better work. I think I’ll rest for an hour and then start working again, is that okay, Sir?”
“No problem. In accordance with our soul contract, as long as you ensure that the total sum of your working hours every seven days is not less than 56 hours, I will pay you in gold coins, Soul Energy, or items as remuneration,” Noland Lee said with a smile.
The two flew towards the passageway in the ceiling and returned to ground level.
Honestly, Nolin’s demeanor reminded Noland Lee of his former self…
A standard workaholic, an unforgiving overtime machine.
There was a time when he was no more than a corporate drone, but now he had Selena as the Principal, Nolin as the assistant, and Denise Green taking care of “aunt-like” duties around the house—situations he once couldn’t even dare to dream of.
