Chapter 202 Nine Luminous Structures
"Well, not bad, the images recorded on the slide card are not distorted, and they basically truly record my handsome side."
The next day.
Duke then opened the "Daily Shenjiao Market" compiled by Mulali and admired his picture on the front page of the newspaper.
As for the smiling old man on the other side of the picture, he automatically ignored it.
This is not the first time Duke has appeared in newspapers. On the day of the bell-ringing ceremony at Faling Tower, he was interviewed by many reporters.
But this was his first photo published in a newspaper.
It's not as sharp as a photo. It's just that the light and shadow images recorded on the slide card are manually rubbed onto the paper, so there will inevitably be some blur and distortion. But he thinks he is handsome, and even if the pixels are lower, he can still distinguish them clearly.
"Little Lili, what do you think?"
"Sir's photo is certainly beautiful, he is handsome and energetic." Mulali nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
Then he thought of something and asked: "Sir, do you want to send Ms. Kilia a copy of "Daily Shenjiao Market"?"
Duke said sideways: "She hasn't decided on her own."
"I'm not Are you afraid that Ms. Kiriya doesn't have time to read the newspaper? She has been practicing very hard recently, and Aunt Jisi doesn't dare to disturb her practice." "
Then you are going to disturb her?"
"I am not doing this to help you, sir..." Mu Lali spoke softer and quieter.
Because Duke's face has darkened. He hates subordinates who make their own decisions, especially those who make decisions for him: "If you have nothing to do, go and learn to repair cards." "I understand, sir, I...
" I promise that I am determined to learn how to repair cards."
"Go ahead."
Duke slapped the little assistant who was a little distracted. Although Kiliya Fury Tao is a fair lady and a gentleman, he always upholds the idea of letting nature take its course.
Right now, I focus on my career.
After all, arcane mages have a long lifespan. When they are promoted to a higher level, they will have no chance to meet the beauties of heaven, not to mention the beauties of the Seven Towers Federation, but also the beauties of heaven from the eighteen countries in the entire Wilderness Continent.
With no one to disturb him, Duke was busy with his spiritual magnetic wave experiments and slide card experiments.
It wasn't until the afternoon that Mulali cautiously came over to report: "Sir, Team Leader Dras is going to submit the completion materials of the research team to you." "Have
all the experiments on the project been completed?" Duke said with some hindsight. Afterthought.
This was a topic in the tower assigned by the instructor. After his mind wandered, he basically didn't care about the specific experimental operations. He just collected the data every day and asked Xiaoyi to help analyze and organize it.
"Yes, it's done."
"Let him come over."
"Yes."
Mulali quickly brought in Team Leader Dras.
It was a simple project in the tower, and it ended within a few months without any accidents. Duke encouraged Delas and asked Mulali to arrange a celebration banquet in the evening.
The exchange with Dras ended.
Then he carefully read through the final experimental data and handed it over to Xiaoyi for processing.
Xiaoyi had already written out the paper without wasting even a minute, so Duke typed it out one by one on the typewriter according to what Xiaoyi had written.
Stay up until get off work time.
"Research on the substitution effect of Cuihai Valley's new spiritual materials in the spiritual energy release channel and spiritual energy infusion channel of the spirit storage card."
A thirty-eight-page, forty-seven thousand-word paper is freshly baked with the scent of ink.
"What limits my speed in writing papers is not my brain, but my typing efficiency... This old-fashioned typewriter is too complicated to operate, but it is more comfortable to type on a computer keyboard." Duke collected the paper papers together and patted them with his hands. .
Then he bound it himself and sent it to Director Vikas’ office.
Vikas was already getting ready to get off work. When he saw that Duke had sent the paper, he simply put it on the table and said, "I will hand it over to the tutor when he comes back tomorrow."
A simple project in the tower took several months to hand in the paper.
This is about the same speed as a normal level 1 arcane mage.
Assistant Vikas smiled and said, "Compared with the previous two papers, the speed of this paper is a bit perfunctory, Duke." Duke
smiled and said, "Have a drink tonight?"
"No, today is my third daughter's birthday. I agreed."
"Okay, I'll go back too."
After saying goodbye, Duke took the shuttle with his assistant and entourage back to his villa. As soon as he entered the villa, he saw guests arriving early.
"I didn't read the newspaper, but I didn't know that Duke Qi was on the headline of "Daily Shenjiao City" and won the Outstanding Erudite Invention Award!" One of the visitors was Joanna Bobcat, "I knew you had Talent for doing research!"
"Joanna, Margot...why are you here?" Duke was not very surprised.
Shangxingcheng Community and Beverly Manor are close to each other. The arcane mages living in these two communities often visit each other without saying hello.
"Come here for dinner."
"It's a joke, butler Morris has arranged everything." Duke greeted the arcane mages one by one, "I'll go up and change clothes first, and take a shower. Come down right away."
"Go ahead, let's play cards for a while."
The arcane mages who came here were either level 1 or level 2.
Arcane mages who have reached level 3 will build wizard towers and castles in the suburbs, and use spiritual spring water pipes to connect to spiritual springs. The entire family will live in the castle.
Only low-level arcane mages who cannot afford to build their own mage tower will live in the community.
By the time Duke finished taking a shower and changed into home clothes, the card game was over. After Butler Morris asked him for instructions, he immediately started eating.
Everyone was eating and chatting.
"Duke, are you going to develop in the Erudite Tower?" asked an arcane mage.
"There is no such plan."
"But your portable lamp has helped you win the Outstanding Erudite Invention Award, which proves your talent in the field of natural history."
Duke did not wait for an answer.
Joanna replied on Duke's behalf: "Imran, Duke is not only talented in natural history, he is also talented in the field of card making, and if he becomes an arcanist, he will also be fully talented. He is a genius arcane mage."
"Joanna, you speak so nicely, but I would be a little embarrassed if you said that." Duke teased.
Perhaps it was because he followed Joanna and realized the Guardian and Mysterious Vine once when he went to the Union Tower, which made Joanna marvel at him.
Therefore, he paid special attention to Duke and gradually became a firm "believer" in Duke.
I firmly believe that Duke can go further in the field of spiritual arcana.
"I'm not exaggerating. Making cards is as easy as playing. You can write papers as fast as drinking water. You can win the Outstanding Museum Invention Award with just one idea... Everyone here, do you think Duke is the same as us? ?" Joanna was still praising Duke.
Everyone is basically used to it.
Imran cut the beef with a table knife and said casually: "Although I agree that Duke is a genius, I don't need Joanna to remind me every day."
Margot also said: "Yeah, I don't even like you reminding me like this. Coming to Duke, it’s very stressful to stay with geniuses."
Duke said: "Actually, I am not a genius, I just sweat a little more than ordinary people." "
I sweat every day, but I don't think this is of any use." Fandral, another man who was very fat and had to wipe his sweat all the time after eating, muttered loudly.
These arcane mages who came here are basically consultants of Shenjiao City Hotel.
Belonging to the same small circle, a small circle centered on Joanna.
The relationship between Duke and them is not very close. The main reason is that Orianna admires him and often comes to see him, bringing the small circle with him.
Dinner is over.
Everyone also left.
Oriana was not in a hurry to leave, but instead enjoyed the cool air on the large terrace with Duke.
"That Vivian has a really nice figure." Looking at Vivian who was practicing fighting martial arts in the yard, Joanna praised, "If you can keep her in the villa, is this the one you like? Or you? That cute little assistant?"
"Hmm." Duke said truthfully, "I'm an adult, why should I make a choice?" "
Haha, you are so honest." Joanna was overjoyed, "I can't tell that usually. , you have such a character."
"The me I usually am, and the me I am now, are all me." "
Well, you have lived a clear life." Joanna took a sip of juice, "By the way, tell me about you That beautiful neighbor of heaven."
"You mean Kiria Furious Waves? Why do you say her?" "
I'm curious, others have called me that before, but not many people recognized it. I don't know what the difference is. ."
Duke took a closer look at Joanna and thought to himself, this is quite a bit different.
In terms of family background, Kylia is from a count family, and Joanna is from a baron family; in appearance, Kylia scored 9.9 out of 10, while Joanna was at most 8. In terms of talent, Kylia was promoted to an arcane mage at the age of eighteen, and also Just slightly worse than Duke, while Joanna was promoted at the age of twenty-one.
As if she understood what Duke was thinking, Joanna immediately raised her middle finger: "From the look in your eyes, I already understand that Kiriya can crush me in all directions, right?" "
Um..." Duke thought intently.
After a while, she replied: "You are easier to get along with than her. To be honest, I like your personality better, Joanna. You are like a friend and there is no pressure to get along with you." "It's hard for you to find my advantages.
"
" No, no, no, you have your shining points, no need to compare."
"You can talk." Joanna finished drinking the juice, stretched, stood up and said, "I'm leaving, I won't disturb you and your guard captain. There is also a little assistant, and we live happily together."
Duke smiled and sent Joanna out.
...
"Outstanding Erudite Invention Award, a very outstanding young arcane mage, isn't it." Clinda put down the newspaper.
"If you're not good enough, why should I go out of my way to let you read the newspaper?" Opposite the desk was a middle-aged female arcane mage. "Erwin has already prepared to apply for the title of Erudite for him. I didn't get it until I was forty. to this title."
"Kiston was saying before that the spirituality of Black Dragon River is no longer there and there is no successor. Wouldn't there be new people emerging?" "
What are your thoughts on the Giant of Light?" Female Archmage asked.
"Aziguli, don't be anxious." Clinda looked down at the big boy with a charming smile on the newspaper, "The Giant of Light does not conflict with our Runwanjia. How many markets can a single lamp capture? Do you need us to take action?"
"I have never thought about taking action. You and I are both level 3 arcane mages. If you bully a little guy with level 1, I will be embarrassed if you tell me." Aziguli said, "I just give it to you. Just a reminder, although the Giant of Light is weak, how do you know that it will not grow into a giant one day." "Don't
worry, the Shenjiao City Spiritual Weapon Market cannot accommodate two giants." "
As long as you know what's going on, I'll go back. "
"I'll send you off."
Clarinda sent Aziguli all the way to the mage tower. The other party was a 3rd ring Austrian mage and the director of the legal department of the Erudite Tower. He deserved such serious treatment.
After the shuttle left in the rain, he slowly walked towards the spiritual staircase.
As a director of the Observation Tower, a 3rd Ring Austrian Mage, and the chairman of Runwanjia Spiritual Weapon Factory, Clarinda no longer cares much about academic research.
The reason is simple, he is very old.
Now I just want to grow Runwanjia Spiritual Weapon Factory and leave this legacy to the family’s descendants.
"Giant of Light..." The spiritual ladder rose rapidly, and through the glass cover, one could see the entire Shenjiao City, shrouded in the midsummer rainstorm.
You can vaguely see a street not far away, and on the rail train platform, there are colorful advertising pictures on the slide card.
Above is a giant made of light, illuminating the city below.
"The ambition is not small!"
A cold smile appeared on the corner of Clinda's mouth: "A series of patents have been registered around portable lamps and other products, and a large patent pool has been built. However, the patent pool cannot be defended. I moisten it. Wanjia’s upcoming attack!”
Ding Dong.
The spiritual ladder stopped at the top floor, and Clinda walked back to her office.
Not long after, a secretary led a person in. When the person saw Clarinda, he immediately saluted respectfully: "Sir." "You're
welcome, please sit down, Grayson."
"Thank you, sir." Grayson sat down. Half ass.
"The Giant of Light Company has been very popular recently. Even the Erudite Tower gave him the Outstanding Erudite Invention Award. How do you think we need to respond?" Clarinda asked.
Grayson replied cautiously: "I have convened the design department to study the Giant of Light's product for a long time. It is indeed a brilliant invention. Although there is no breakthrough in technological promotion, the use of light sources is refreshing."
"So."
"Sir, my idea is to copy the products of Giant of Light." Grayson replied, "It is just a small category of lighting fixtures with very low profits. There is no need to compete in a big way. Just copy it and pay for the patent infringement. Fees, and then keep our market, it will be difficult for the giant of light to break through." "Did
you know that around portable lights, Duke has established a deep patent pool in the Erudite Tower, and the infringement fees are not cheap."
" Even if all the profits from the lamps are used to pay the infringement fees, as long as the giant of light is killed, everything will return to the way it was before." "No."
Clarinda directly denied, "Patent infringement alone is not enough!"
He turned his eyes to the sky outside the window. A bird flew past the window. The next second, it seemed to be restrained by something, and then exploded into a ball of plasma.
Clarinda then turned around and looked at Grayson with a cold look: "I want to completely eliminate the influence of the portable lamp. So, after you go back, immediately improve the Lingfeng lamp and make it according to the style of the portable lamp. , and then defeat the Giant of Light with a new product!"
"This... Sir, the structure of the portable lamp has been patented..." "
It's just a structural patent. This kind of patent is not very protective. At worst, we will go to the Erudite Tower to file a lawsuit. And you can design our spirit wind lamp to be more beautiful and complex, so that it is different from the portable lamp." "
I understand, sir." Grayson understood.
Clarinda nodded: "Go for it, I want to see Runwanjia take action as soon as possible, from products to publicity, all aspects of action!" "
Yes!" Grayson stood up and left.
Clarinda was the only one left in the office, and his eyes became gloomy as he stared at the young man with a handsome smile on the cover of "Daily Shenjiao City" on the table.
Smiling darkly: "Erwin applied for the title of Erudite for you, then I will destroy your title of Erudite!"
Clelinda clenched her fists and slammed the table: "Damn Erwin, I I have invented so many spiritual weapons, even in the field of quasi-arcane weapons, and I have also purchased many ideas from mortals. I am not even willing to apply for the title of Erudite!" "They also said that my inventions are not that big
. Spreading value... The continuous supply and coating technology I bought two years ago can obviously greatly improve the efficiency of card repair and card production. Why do I say it is not valuable? This is already the best patent I have bought!" Dangdangdang
, After hearing the commotion, the secretary knocked on the door: "Sir, do you have anything to say?"
"Get out!"
"Okay, sir."
The secretary left obediently. Clarinda also restrained her anger and just whispered to herself. He hummed: "If you say I don't have the talent of a savant, I will let the Runwan family rule the entire spiritual weapon market and block everyone who has the talent of a savant!" ...The Giant of Light is developing rapidly and has agreed not to interfere with the company's
operations
. Duke, once again couldn't help but ran over to inspect.
"Sir, according to your instructions, the R&D department is designing updated products." Vuillard accompanied Duke to visit.
Duke has said before that the product update speed must be fast, especially in the appearance design, and we must strive to make the small portable lamp look more beautiful and have a high-end texture.
At the same time, quality is ensured so that Giant of Light's products can be seen at a glance to be a level higher than other products.
"It's not enough!" Duke had a new idea, "I think there are two directions for the portable lamp series that we need to work hard on."
Vuillard immediately took out his notebook and prepared to take notes seriously.
Duke also said with a leadership style: "One is to strengthen the light source. The R&D department should optimize the circuit of the wick and find an energy line structure that is more suitable for emitting light to improve the brightness of the light and strive to launch a 'strong light hand lamp' as soon as possible! "
He changed the concept of strong light flashlight to strong light hand lamp.
While recording, Viall nodded with deep approval. In his opinion, Duke's speech was always refreshing.
It guides a new direction for future development and makes people no longer confused.
Duke continued: "The other one is miniaturization. Since the product is called a portable lamp, we have to pick out the word portable. The current portable lamp with a built-in spirit storage card is still very thick and large, and it is difficult to carry it with you. Still panicking, so I have to study a smaller portable light."
"Yes, sir." Viard quickly jotted down.
After making some lofty remarks, Duke also inspected the R&D Department, and then had a light meal in the Formula Building.
After returning to Master Penrose Tower, he quickly ordered Xiao Yi: "Report the progress." "
Okay Master, there are four processes currently running... Process One: Exclusive Meditation Method... Process Two: Illusion Arcane Wonders ...Process Three: Sand Eagle 1.52 Special Effect Bullet-Elemental Version...Process Four: Interactive Program..." "
Add a new process."
"Master, please give me your instructions."
"Research on structural optimization and improvement of portable lights. There are two optimization directions. , one is to enhance the light source, and the other is to compress the volume."
"Good master, I have added a new process for you... Process 4: R&D of portable light structure..." Xiaoyi quickly made arrangements.
Duke then smiled with satisfaction.
Go to the Giant of Light to inspect and issue orders to the R&D department, just to spur the R&D and design staff to keep them busy.
In fact, he still believes more in his own Xiaoyi when it comes to the optimization and improvement of portable lights.
Then, he began to work on his other two experiments. The portable lamp is just a small idea, and the spiritual magnetic wave and the film and television slide card can be regarded as great inventions.
Now there is a handmade, slightly rough machine on his experimental bench, with more than thirty slide cards inserted in this machine.
Duke built a rotating device at the bottom of the machine so that the Soul Storage Card can instantly supply energy to more than 30 slide cards through rotation, so that the pictures on the slide cards can be played back in a certain order.
However, when he saw this machine, an idea suddenly flashed in his mind.
"The slide card... the portable lamp... the wick structure of the portable lamp is to intercept the luminous structure in the magic model of the slide card..."
Duke suddenly clapped his hands: "Yes, the slide cards can be played together as a set, so why? Portable lamps are not allowed. How about using multiple wicks at one time?"
Each wick is a separate light-emitting structure, equivalent to a light bulb.
He clearly remembered that some of the bright flashlights on Earth used many light bulbs concentrated together to enhance the brightness of the light.
It seems that they all use LED materials, which are semiconductors that can emit light. Many LED chips can be placed on a board to emit light together, and the brightness can blind the eyes.
"If I connect several or dozens of light-emitting structures in series on the energy line loop of the lamp wick, can the brightness be enhanced?"
I thought here.
Without any delay, Duke put down his study of the slide card and began to disassemble the wick of the portable lamp to prove his idea.
The idea proved to be very successful.
When he added a second light-emitting structure to the wick, the wick successfully emitted brighter light after being powered, and even the third and fourth light-emitting structures successfully emitted brighter light.
"The bright hand lamp is done!" Duke laughed.
The next moment, he suddenly stopped smiling, then closed his eyes and began to look inward.
With the successful verification of the idea of a strong hand lamp, many insights accumulated in my mind, which exploded at this moment.
Let his understanding of spiritual arcana reach a new level.
In the inner view, the spiritual core ring in the center of the spiritual sea appeared again, and a new protruding part was added, making the absolute ring jump towards the twisted loop structure. It can be vaguely seen that the structure of the spell model .
"Huh!"
When the changes in the spiritual core stabilized, Duke opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of filthy breath.
The reason why arcane mages continue to study spiritual arcana is not that all arcanists are scientific madmen, but that in the process of research, they can continue to understand spiritual arcana and advance.
This is the way arcanists practice.
Even arcanists who focus on combat must continue to study arcana and elements in order to improve their level.
"I thought I could only make some money with the portable lamp, but I didn't expect that it really gave me the knowledge of spiritual arcana. Then, it's time to study it in depth!" Duke was not in a hurry to apply for a
patent.
The sales of portable lamps are booming now. Let’s squeeze out the potential first. When the potential of portable lamps is insufficient, we can then introduce high-light handlamp technology.
"Continue!"
The experiment continued. With Duke's operations, he was able to add nine luminous structures to the energy line loop of the wick, and the light emitted seemed like a small sun.
He experimented at night and found that the nine light-emitting structure lamp heads could illuminate a distance of 400 meters.
"The tactical light on my Sandhawk pistol is almost as bright as the tactical light on my Sandhawk pistol." Duke was very satisfied with the effect of the strong hand light.
However, when he was about to add further luminous structures, he found that when he added the tenth luminous structure, the entire energy circuit would collapse.
No matter what, it is impossible to break through the ten luminous structures.
"Why is this?" Duke called for support, "Xiaoyi, you analyze it."
"Master, from Xiaoyi's point of view, the lamp wick is a simplified slide card spell model structure, which can carry the redundant light-emitting structure. The maximum limit is nine. Once it exceeds nine, the model structure will be overloaded, causing a collapse."
"Understood." Duke really understood.
The spell model is a complete loop. Without changing the level of the loop, its changes are significant and cannot be expanded infinitely.
The same is true for lamp wicks. More than nine light-emitting structures will destroy the underlying logic.
"This is the limit of one wick, but this is not the limit of the strong light hand lamp. I can definitely add new wicks..." Duke stretched out comfortably and said in his heart, "Xiao Yi, do it for me Disassemble the relevant patents!"
