Soon, a three-dimensional mesh mithril structure the size of a human head, with complex hollows and considerable aesthetics appeared in front of Sha Duo. He still maintained the [Mage's Hand] control over the mithril structure.
As the alchemy circle no longer provided melting power, the three-dimensional network structure quickly cooled down. Sha Duo picked up the mithril structural parts and checked it again with the help of auxiliary wires.
"Not bad, you did it so perfectly the first time!" Xia Duo couldn't help but praise.
He realized that even if it was purely handmade, as long as there were enough reasonable auxiliary facilities (spells), precise structural parts could be produced.
At this point, if it is just a disposable spell-casting instrument similar to a magic scroll, then it will be fine now.
Moreover, this mithril structural component can also be reused.
Of course, this is not what Sha Duo wants!
It's really not cost-effective to spend such a long time making a one-time magic instrument. It would be better to make several magic scrolls if you have this time!
Although so far, the cost seems to be only mithril, the depreciation cost of the alchemy circle and the energy cost I have paid far exceed the mithril itself.
Unless large-scale automated production is possible, so that the cost of mithril structural parts can be reduced to close to the material itself, otherwise, this mithril structural part will be quite expensive.
Different from the magic items made with the constancy spell, the key to reusability of the method Shado is using now lies in artificially constructing the energy core of the spell.
This energy core is not for storing energy, but for excitation, exchange, and circulation of energy.
In layman's terms, this technology is similar to the principle of automatic loading of bullets in modern rifles. The energy core is used to guide and utilize the excess energy when the spell is activated, and "load" the spell again.
Energy cores usually need to be made with gems. Depending on the energy required for the spell, the types of gems required for production are also different.
Generally, they are four-color gemstones, representing the four elements of earth, fire, water and wind.
The mithril structural component made by Xia Duo is the elemental projection of the 2nd ring [Confinement Sphere], or the spell structure, which represents all the details of the birth of this spell from the magic network.
This is equivalent to the plane figures required by magic scrolls. Although one looks flat and the other looks three-dimensional, this is arcane geometry, and its essence is still the combination of the magic weave strings.
Three-dimensional graphics are simpler, while flat graphics can be understood as condensed and complex.
Because it was just his first time practicing, Xia Duo didn't care about whether he could really succeed, but about a complete experience opportunity.
After the mithril structural parts were completed, he began to build wooden supports and fixed the complex and precise three-dimensional mesh structure, which was the size of a human head, on an ordinary workbench.
And the space left in a specific position is prepared to place the energy core, which is the four-color gemstone.
[Confinement Sphere] is a force field spell that requires four kinds of gems as the core of energy stimulation and circulation. In addition, pure white crystal is needed as the core of energy exchange.
Gemstones are also ready-made and prepared in advance. They can be large, but not small.
After all the gems are installed (placed), the magic item that can activate the 2-ring [Confinement Sphere] is more than half done.
The last step is to connect the magic network, which requires the caster to do it in person.
Looking at the entire production process, Xia Duo felt that this was the only step that could not get rid of the caster. The other steps could be processed in batches if the industrial capacity was strong enough.
Just like the magic scroll, Xia Duo once thought about using printing to make it, but every time he thought about the last step of connecting to the magic network, he had to give up.
Even if there are countless quasi-magical scrolls placed in front of him, he can only make so many every day, and it is impossible for him to dig out more time from the gap in time!
I have experience in making magic scrolls. Although it is a three-dimensional projection of elements, it is not difficult for Sha Duo. The process of linking the magic network is very smooth, even easier than making the [Confinement Sphere] scroll.
.
After a while, Xia Duo successfully made the first magic item in his life.
Although it looks so simple, the mithril structural parts and energy core are all fixed on the workbench with wooden brackets.
Not to mention, the key structure is directly exposed. It is estimated that a random child can destroy this very expensive magic item.
"try it!"
Now that the production was successful, Xia Duo could not help but try it. This step should have been done in the magic laboratory.
But because the magic item he made cannot be moved, he can only experiment here. Fortunately, he is now the acting tower owner, and there is no way the tower spirit can hurt him.
Of course, he himself would not forget to add protective spells to himself.
--excitation!
A force field ball the size of a marble appeared instantly. Shado didn't control it very much, but threw it directly to the corner of the room, where there was a chair.
The force field ball quickly grew in size during its flight, and the moment it touched the chair, it enveloped it. The aura flickered, and Xia Duo estimated that it would last for about half an hour.
Big success!
Xia Duo laughed happily. This was smoother than the first time he made a magic scroll. It was incredible!
Immediately afterwards, Xia Duo observed this magic item that was simple in appearance but fully functional. After using it once, the magic aura began to fluctuate regularly.
Just wait until it calms down and you can use it again.
This time is generally determined according to different spells and the number of energy cores. Some can be used multiple times in a row, but it takes longer to recover.
This one made by Xia Duo can theoretically be restored in a few hours.
It has already taken most of a day, and I don't care if I wait a few more hours. If it were any other mage, the time needed for just that mithril structural component would be calculated in days.
So Xia Duo took out one of the books "Soulology" to pass the time.
In the past few days, whenever he has free time, he will take out theoretical books and read them. As for practical books, he will read them in the magic laboratory so that he can experiment at any time.
Time passed minute by minute.
Suddenly, Xia Duo suddenly raised his head and looked at the workbench. Sure enough, the magic item flashed violently, as if it was going to explode the next moment.
Xia Duo was excited and subconsciously ran outside. As soon as he reached the door, the workbench exploded, and all kinds of energy were everywhere.
The tower spirit's reaction was very immediate, and it blocked those energies before they could touch Xia Duo.
The burst of energy lasted only a moment, and there was no abnormality in the magic network itself. It was not like the magic network rioting in the Mystic Ruins.
Returning to the workbench, the originally good magic item had now changed its appearance. The mithril structural parts were slightly twisted and deformed. Most of the wooden supports were burnt to char, and a few parts were covered with a layer of frost.
As for the gems that served as the core of energy, Xia Duo picked through the wreckage and found less than half of them in the end, while the rest were damaged.
“It’s a waste of people and money!”
Originally, Xia Duo planned to keep this magic item well, and perhaps it could be used as a teaching tool in the future!
