Opal, a silica gel gemstone, contains 5-10% water.
In a standard suite bedroom in the dormitory building at the Magic Ministry base at night, Gu Jun was looking at a crystal-clear and colorful opal in his hand.
There are two kinds of opals: color-changing and non-color. This one is color-changing. It is oval, 4.5cm long and 2.1cm wide. It is produced in western Australia. This is what he specially told the people from the Department of Recreation to pay attention to when buying it.
, because he believes that "Wharton Town" still has a hint of another meaning.
Since opal is amorphous, some structures will change color or even crack due to lack of water, but if the structure is stable, there will be no change.
This one was full of water, brightly colored, and round. He thought that this roughly met the requirements of the "Nakite Codex".
"Hmm." Gu Jun took the gem and sat down at the work table specially placed in the middle of the bedroom. The table was filled with some carving tools, carving knives, electric drills, drill bits, needle grinding... It was like orthopedic surgery.
Treasure box.
And in every corner, he installed cameras himself, which will record his next situation.
In fact, Gu Jun didn't know what he was going to do, he only knew that he was going to carve an old seal on this opal.
But how to carve it, and how it would have possible effects, he had no idea.
It was an old seal application technique recorded in that chapter of the "Nacht Codex". It was different from the big old seal stone, and its function was to "monitor rationality."
Gu Jun understood it this way, because the content of the text above was too obscure and difficult to understand, so he was only half-guessing and half-confused.
However, "reason, reason, reason", he could see how much the civilization that created these technologies valued this. Reason was their highest priority, and knowledge and science were the only ways they were willing to understand the universe.
Therefore, this tool for monitoring rationality, if you want to use a metaphor, may be like a human health watch to see how many steps you have taken.
"But this kind of gadget." Gu Jun thought, "If it can be manufactured, it can solve our big problem."
The paintings on the "Nachter Codex" clearly stated the lines to be carved, but each line seemed to contain the most superb mathematical rules. The strange precision even made him feel a kind of insignificance when looking up at the stars. It was definitely not human.
Science that can be understood at this stage.
Just like primitive people don't understand what calculus is. Although he doesn't understand it very well, high numbers always give him a headache.
"Try it." Gu Jun took a deep breath and picked up a carving knife. He felt quite comfortable using it for the first time, and his calm hand could also work here.
He had already ordered Cai Zixuan, who continued to stay with him, not to let anyone come in and disturb him until he went out.
Gu Jun closed his eyes and opened the "Nakt Codex" in his mind, turning to the pages about making "Old Seal Ornaments", looking at those unimaginable lines, unspeakable patterns, and how to make them
The mental power combines with the opal to regulate the moisture in the stone and reshape the structure...
Gradually, his mental energy became more focused, and he gradually developed a headache.
"Hmm..."
It seems like many dreams are coming, replacing the darkness.
Gu Jun looked around and found that he was once again standing in the grand vaulted library, but it was not the same place as last time, and there was no dark shadow like last time.
The rows of huge bookshelves were far away. He was standing next to a wall. With a faint light, he could see that the giant stone wall was full of carved patterns, as if they had been rubbed with sandpaper.
The scratches are densely layered and mottled, and they are many times more complicated than those on the "Nachter Manuscript".
"Are these... the technical principles of the monitoring stone..."
The more Gu Jun looked at it, the more he was struck by the delicate and exquisite power. Every straight line and curve on the wall seemed to outline his soul.
He looked at these carvings and quickly immersed himself in them without feeling any discomfort, so he forgot about time...
He didn't know how much time had passed when he slowly stretched out his right hand, wanting to touch the wall.
Suddenly, this illusion faded, and Gu Jun's eyes suddenly opened wide. The surroundings were no longer a grand library, but a spacious bedroom in the dormitory.
But the sky outside the window has become brighter, the clock shows it is past six in the morning, and the night has passed.
"Ah..." Gu Jun took a deep breath, as if he was reconnecting with his body. Then a wave of extreme fatigue surged over him, making him almost fall down on the work table. Especially his two arms were sore.
It feels like it's about to break...
What circumstances caused his level 3 calmness to become like this?
Gu Jun's heart skipped a beat and he lowered his head to look at the work table. Did I carve anything?
I saw a lot of scattered stone chips on the table. He still held the carving knife in his right hand, and the opal in his left hand.
It is still in the shape of an oval and has not undergone any major changes, but it has an old seal pattern engraved on the front. It has not been polished, but it seems to be natural. Everything is just right. The cross branches of the old seal are even
Connected with its different colors.
"This..." Gu Jun frowned and found that the tools such as the electric drill had not changed. Did he use this carving knife all night?
He summoned the strength to push himself up, his feet were very tired, but he walked to the computer, opened the surveillance video and watched it. He saw that after he started to sense the "Nakter Codex", his hands moved very quickly.
Get up and carve the opal with a knife...
He watched it at normal speed for a while, and then at fast speed. The whole night after that, he looked so sculpted.
After changing the camera and looking at different angles, Gu Jun found that his eyes were always closed, which was like an activity in a sleepwalking state.
"It looks like I just carved an old mark on it. In fact, this is also a kind of spiritual carving. The internal structure of this opal is different."
The question is, is this little old seal stone useful?
Gu Jun played with the stone for a while based on his understanding of the "Nakter Manuscript". He saw its luster changing and the old seal pattern flickering again... He couldn't help but laugh with joy and hold the stone tightly.
, it’s done! It should be done, life-saving medicine.
He immediately went to get his cell phone and called Tong Ye. It was his turn to wake up others early in the morning.
"Hello?" But Mr. Tong answered quickly and didn't seem to be sleeping. This old guy has been busy enough this week and has been haggard for a few times.
"Master Tong." Gu Jun said with a smile, "I finally figured out a technology that the great elder Atal passed on to me, and our health watch came out."
"What kind of health watch?" Tong Ye was stunned, "Atal also has this?"
"The health watch is a metaphor. It is actually a monitoring and testing equipment for the rational condition of spellcasters."
