Chapter 72 Tiger Shark (Part 1)
Dinola pounced, Solgevellen rolled to the ground with his chair, and the two immediately wrestled into a group. Ge Zheng quickly patted the table: "Okay, OK, stop making trouble. Dinola, I have already thought about it, and I will start to refine new weapons for you after dinner." As soon as he said that he was hungry, Solgevellen was hungry again, and gave up Dinola and shouted: "Dunk, our chef, why is the supper not ready yet?"
In terms of materials, Ge Zheng came a lot from the Royal Material Library during the last alchemy competition, and it was not expensive anyway. Dinola did not have high requirements for weapons. Although she really wanted to get a quasi-artifact, the female warrior also understood that it was not easy to refine a quasi-artifact, and the materials were expensive. She owed Ge Zheng a quasi-artifact, and she felt sorry for her.
Although he did not ask, Ge Zheng could not create a weapon to deal with her. If you want to make good materials, Ge Zheng still had some, some of them, some of them, and some of them, but Ge Zheng did not intend to use them.
It was not that Ge Zheng was stingy, but because the last time he saw the power of the midwinter sword ring touched Ge Zheng. He originally thought that his current level had touched the barrier of quasi-artifacts, and his level could not be improved any more, but when he saw the top quasi-artifact, he changed his view: he had a technical Long March away from the real quasi-artifact barrier.
Using good materials to create good works will not improve Ge Zheng's skills. Only by using ordinary materials to create good works can one further improve one's own level. This is like a warrior who can continue to make progress by constantly challenging enemies stronger than himself.
There were dozens of ordinary materials in front of him, all of which he deducted from the last alchemy competition. The quality of these materials was very good, and each was about to use them to refine a quasi-artifact for Dinola!
The idea of this weapon was already there, but there were still several problems that could not be solved. Ge Zheng sat cross-legged on the ground, flipping through his hands with magic books.
During this time, he used his identity to borrow various books from the academy's library, copied one with magic, made it into a new magic book, and returned the original version. In a short period of time, the collection of books in the think tank had increased by one quarter.
What Ge Zheng is facing now is definitely not a small problem, but a famous debate proposition in the history of alchemy: the theory of overprinting of the king.
On the first day he entered the alchemy department, he met Mars and Emmons quarreled over this proposition. Mars, who was gentle on weekdays, immediately became aggressive and mean when encountering academic problems. Emmons, who sang against stage dramas with him, was the same. He was definitely a good man on weekdays, and he didn't fight for anything or rob anything. However, once the academic issues of alchemy were involved, he would really raise his sleeves and fight with others when arguing.
The maximum number of magic array overprints in alchemy works is nine levels, and human alchemists will not be able to surpass this limit.
However, if Ge Zheng wants to complete this work according to his own ideas, he needs at least ten layers of overprinting. With Ge Zheng's current level, he is really not sure to do this.
I have read many classics that oppose the proposition of "King of Overprinting". Those who oppose it have only proposed some "guess" ways to break through the King of Overprinting, and no one has really broken it in practice.
After drawing on the views of his predecessors, Ge Zheng decided to implement it in his own way.
Anyway, there are a lot of these materials and they are made without spending money. Ge Zheng is an experiment and does not feel sorry for failure.
The raging flames ignited in the furnace, and the fire-clothing magic spread on the flames like moss on the surface of the stone castle. Ge Zheng used his true energy to activate the flames and climbed to the second golden realm.
The ratio of raw materials to Ge Zheng has already calculated it, which is a very critical point.
They were sent into the furnace in turn, and slowly a pot of molten metal solution began to bubble like magma.
Dinola does not require any magic attributes. For violent female warriors, magic is just "icing on the cake", and what she needs more is the hardness and sharpness of weapons.
Since this is the case, Ge Zheng simply gave up his magic attributes. All the magic blessings in this knife were used for strength and sharpness. Through a super ten-layer metal-type overprinted magic array, the knife reached an invincible state.
The metal magic array is an indifferent subject. Even the library of Dongsheng Academy does not have many books on this aspect. After thinking about it, Ge Zheng couldn't achieve the goal he wanted to achieve with the nine-layer magic array. It was only a little short that he had to print another layer.
Concentrating all his mental power, Ge Zheng began to challenge the proposition of "King Overprinting".
The magic arrays were engraved into the alloy solution, and it was very smooth from the first layer to the seventh layer. When the eighth layer was printed, there was not much space available. Ge Zheng had to be careful. After completing the eighth layer, the ninth layer was even more difficult. The sweat from his forehead slid down and penetrated into his eyes. In the blink of an eye, a line overlapped with the eighth layer of magic array, and the engraving failed in an instant.
Ge Zheng sat on the ground, exhausted.
Without his true energy support, the flames slowly extinguished, and the materials in the furnace became waste.
He wiped his sweat, rested for a while, prepared a new pot of raw materials and started a new attempt. This time, he was careful from the beginning, and the first few layers of overprinting were also perfect, taking up as little space as possible, leaving more space for the last few overprinting.
Such meticulous attitude has indeed achieved results. The eighth layer of printing was completed easily. The ninth layer of printing was finally completed with his concentration. However, there was another problem when the tenth layer of printing was printed, and the weapons could no longer bear it.
The "space" in the work is limited, and this space used for magic array engraving is not the space in the usual sense. Otherwise, you only need to find a large item to refute the proposition of overprinting of the king.
There is no big problem in burning many magic arrays in parallel, but if you want to overprint vertically, you must consider the "bearable ability" of the military items.
All objects are composed of "molecules", and there are gaps between molecules. The difference is that the gaps between solid molecules are small and the gaps between liquids and gases are large. The magic array is overprinted, and is divided layer by layer. Each layer is divided, and the magic array inside will be reduced by a cubic multiple relative to the magic array outside. In other words, nine layers of overprinting are the multiples of nine cubic meters.
The reason why the King of Overprinting was formed is that after ten times of overprinting, the magic array was already extremely small, reaching the size of the molecular gap of the object. And a single "molecule" and molecular gap cannot be engraved with magic arrays.
Ge Zheng is facing such a problem now.
Although he could not see such a tiny thing, he could still grasp it through the perception of spiritual power.
Sighing in his heart, Ge Zheng looked helplessly at the scrapping of the second furnace of raw materials.
If you cannot complete the ten-layer printing, the previous magic array cannot be connected into a whole. Even if it is refined, it will be a waste weapon.
He supported his head with his hands, his brows were locked, and he stared at the furnace as if there were the answers he needed in it.
To solve the King of Overprinting Proposition, we need to reduce the proportion of the magic array shrinking during the overprinting process. I don’t know how many alchemists have discussed this proposition, but in the end no one has successfully practiced it.
A thought suddenly jumped into his mind: the reduction ratio of the magic array overprint is fixed. Since the next layer of overprinted magic array cannot be made larger, then the gap between the "molecules" of the object will be smaller and the "molecules" particles will be smaller. Isn't it equivalent to making the secondary overprinted magic array larger?
Ge Zheng's brow stretched out: that is to say, increase the density of the object.
The first thing he thought of was Long Steel. However, although Long Steel alloy is denser than ordinary alloys, there is no raw material like Long Steel in his design. If rashly adding it will change the nature of the entire work.
He reconsidered his raw material ratio, adjusted several of them, and then added Longgang and several other materials.
Because of the addition of Long Steel, the density of the alloy has indeed increased a lot, but it is not so obvious when reflected in the level of "molecules".
However, it was this very subtle difference that made Ge Zheng finally successfully printed out ten magic arrays after three consecutive failures!
The cold air gushed out, and the solution cooled in an instant. In the white mist, Ge Zheng showed a knowing smile: not only because he solved the proposition of "King Overprinting", but also because he felt that after this alchemy, he went further in terms of mental power control - challenging the high difficulty, which indeed helped him improve.
The beautiful sapphire blue blade was spit out from the mouth of a roaring lion, and the hilt was carved into a lion. The blade edge was wide and the curve was soft and domineering. The part close to the handle was as slender as a woman's waist. The tip of the knife was unique, like an axe and a gun. A black scorpion "lifted" on the blade, and the sharp tail hook pointed to the tip of the knife.
Dinola waved twice and immediately couldn't put down her new weapon. Her eyes were filled with naked love: "Great, this is the weapon in my dream!" She was excited and said unstoppable: "Monster, I'll give Gronia to you, and this knife will be my lover in the future..."
