Think about the shortcut to killing monsters in the dungeon, which is to directly smash the monster's magic stone.
You can roughly know how fragile this thing is.
It is even the fatal weakness of high-level monsters!
However, if you do this, the value of the magic stone will be greatly reduced after it is broken, so few people do this.
Another thing is that the characteristics of magic stone are almost the same as disposable batteries.
Charging disposable batteries that have quality issues will definitely cause them to explode!
Su Mo also vaguely noticed this in the past few days.
The main thing is, no matter how he changes the energy storage magic pattern, as long as he charges the magic stone, it will explode 100%!
With such a result, anyone would start to suspect that it was a problem with the magic stone.
"So, magic stones can only be used as consumables and cannot be reused..."
This discovery made Su Mo feel a little distressed.
Because this is equivalent to a shortage of an important material.
Fortunately, even if it cannot be reused, the magic power contained in the magic stone itself can still be used.
It's just a matter of changing your mindset, no longer focusing on the magic stone itself, but on the magic power within it, and treating it as a form of energy to be mined.
In this way, the magic stone still has some value.
But it's not high either.
After all, magic power is a renewable biological energy for a dimensional city where everyone knows magic. When the girls become stronger, they will never be short of it.
Therefore, the magic stone can only be used for transition at present.
What is really important is to quickly develop the magic battery. Otherwise, even if you have a lot of magic power in the future, it will be useless if you can't use it.
Then, Su Mo looked at the contents of the manuscript again.
"Mithril? Magic alloy?"
Looking at the magic storage technology above, Su Mo couldn't help but frown.
This technology requires special magical metals, but the Dimension City currently does not have these things.
"These things are also included in that batch of magic tools."
Su Mo rubbed his chin and thought.
"Then can we understand the characteristics and use a universal tool to transform it?"
The function of the universal tool, the pickaxe, is to transform the corresponding minerals according to his ideas when digging the soil.
The conventional metals such as gold, silver, copper, iron, etc. in the dimensional city are now transformed in this way, using the soil dug from the foundation during infrastructure construction.
What Su Mo is thinking now is that even the medicinal materials needed to make spiritual medicines can be grown after understanding them.
So……
Ores, maybe?!
It feels very possible (bjeb)!
Thinking of this, Su Mo hurried to Hephaestus's workshop.
At this moment, Hephaestus was checking the magic items one by one and sorting them out.
La'er was silently recording her offer.
Huihui, on the other hand, kept saying nice things and praising the effects of these nonsense magic items in order to gain more benefits for her family, hoping that Hephaestus would give her a good price.
When the three saw Su Mo, they all stopped.
"Su Mo, you're here. How do you think of the manuscript on magic storage? Did you learn anything?"
Hephaestus asked.
"Yes, the magic stone has been proven to be useless. That thing can only be used for consumption."
"Aren't we just working in vain?"
"Yes, but the ready-made technology in the Suqing world can be used, as long as the source of materials is solved."
Su Mo said this and handed the manuscript to Hephaestus.
Hephaestus took the manuscript and began to read it carefully.
Su Mo looked at the classified magic tools and asked, "Are there any unimportant ones here? I need to disassemble some materials now."
Hephaestus waved her hand without even looking up and said, "The pile on the far left is worthless. You can take it and tear it down."
Su Mo turned around and looked over, and was stunned: "So many?"
Because the number of magic items in that pile was really too much, accounting for almost half of the total!
"..."
Huihui held her forehead helplessly.
It's really embarrassing. My unreliable father has brought shame to the Dimension City.
“What are these quotations for?”
Su Mo looked at Laer again.
Don't quote too much. Although he doesn't care about that little bit of money, it doesn't mean he is willing to be fleeced.
Furthermore, if this kind of waste is also to be recycled at a high price, wouldn’t it disrupt the future market order?
Seeing this, Laer quickly handed him the list.
Su Mo took it and looked at it. After he found a large number of super low prices on the list, he felt relieved.
After returning the list to Laer, Su Mo picked out several large magic props from the pile of waste.
They were opened one by one and the various special metals inside were picked out.
Then he created a magic of material analysis on the spot, examined all the metals thoroughly, and fully understood their material composition and characteristics.
Then they came to the construction site outside, and the universal tool turned into a pickaxe, and dug out an abandoned pile of earth.
Then I got some ores that I had never seen before.
"Success!"
After checking these ores again and finding that they were indeed the magical metals used in magic tools, Su Mo was overjoyed.
He quickly took the ore and returned to the workshop.
"Su Mo, you're back just in time. Where do you plan to get these magical metals?"
"Where did you get these ores?"
Hephaestus also quickly finished reading the information and was about to ask Su Mo about the source of the materials.
Then he saw the minerals in Su Mo's hand and was stunned.
Su Mo smiled and said, "Now you don't have to worry about the materials. I can transform these things as well."
As he spoke, he conjured up a pickaxe and gestured.
"...You really are, this is too much of a cheat."
Hephaestus was also speechless. The material problem was actually solved by Su Mo.
Moreover, this universal device is too buggy!
But there is nothing much to say, let’s start a new experiment!
But before that, Hephaestus also estimated the price of the remaining magic items and asked Lale and Huihui to take the quotation sheet to the Suqing World to complete the transaction with Hyo Saburo.
Then, she and Su Mo began to study new magic storage technology.
This technology in the Suqing world is mainly metal batteries.
However, because it stores magic power instead of electricity, it is more convenient to operate and you don’t even need a protective case.
You just need to combine several magical materials together and add a magic array to increase stability and output and input effects, and a good magic battery will be ready.
"For the time being, this is just a household appliance-grade magic tool. The energy supply of this battery is sufficient, but it is still a bit lacking for use in urban facilities."
After testing the new magic battery, Su Mo was delighted but also frowned slightly.
"Yes, if it is to power urban facilities, then its size will be very large."
Hephaestus also agreed with this view.
The new battery is useful, but its magic (electricity) capacity is not enough to meet the needs of the Dimension City.
Although this can also be popularized and used as some magic props for daily use.
But for daily use, we already have home appliances, so why bother to replace them with magic props?
Su Mo's goal in researching magic technology has never been just for the people's livelihood, but more importantly for the safety and construction of the dimensional city.
In terms of safety, the protective barrier requires a stable, reusable energy supply device.
Later, as traffic demand increased, roads had to be built, and Su Mo also planned to set up isolation barriers on the roads to completely separate pedestrians and vehicles in order to reduce casualties from traffic accidents.
At the same time, in terms of construction.
In Su Mo's expectation, there would be many things that would require the use of magical technology.
For example, Graham is a magic puppet, a magic version of a robot.
Regardless of construction, production, agriculture, etc., you can invest some Graham.
While increasing efficiency, it can also further reduce manpower consumption.
But the current magic batteries are not even good enough to power Graham, let alone the barriers of urban facilities.
The main reason is that the performance is not enough. To achieve the required storage capacity and output effect, the only way is to enlarge the volume.
Although it can be used barely, if it is too large, it will be very difficult to maintain and service, and the production effect will not be good.
"Try to improve it first. If it doesn't work, I will go to the Suqing world myself to join you."
Su Mo thought of the "Destroyer" mobile fortress in Su Qing's original work.
This thing is also a magic item, and it contains a lot of magical technology.
If the experimental improvement does not go smoothly, Su Mo plans to go to the Suqing world himself and take this thing apart to have a look.
The ordinary magic items that Piao Saburo took out are not good enough, but this more advanced one should be okay, right?
The fact that such a large thing can last so long proves that its energy supply technology is excellent.
"Then let's try it first."
After hearing Su Mo's plan, Hephaestus didn't ask too many questions and began to think about how to improve the existing magic battery technology.
Su Mo participated and the two discussed it together.
At this time, Huihui also took Lale to the Suqing world.
At the same time, Su Mo received a reward reminder.
…To be continued….
Chapter 98: Tragedy caused by reward, Asuna runs away from home and becomes an outsider resident
Originally Su Mo didn't care.
After all, the reward that Huihui received when she returned was not that great. It was just a weapon produced in the Suqing world.
Although it is a high level weapon, it is a good weapon.
But for Su Mo, who has no shortage of weapons, it is completely dispensable.
But out of curiosity he still took a look.
Upon seeing this, Su Mo was stunned.
Or maybe it’s because of how good the reward is this time, but it’s a bit weird.
