After finalizing the matter with Brian and the others, Tang En went straight back to the Lord's Mansion.
"My Lord, are these enough for the ponytails you wanted?"
The maid was trembling with fear as she carried a plate with a bunch of cleaned ponytails on it.
"Yes, thank you."
Tang En grabbed the ponytails and was about to go upstairs. After going upstairs, he suddenly turned back and said, "By the way, tell the others not to disturb me before dinner."
"Un … Understood."
After giving the order, Tang En did not look for Fiona and went straight back to his room.
He did not have his own alchemy laboratory at the moment, so he could only make do with it in his bedroom.
"Now, let me see how great the potential of magic is."
Tang En rubbed his hands and smiled excitedly. He had already set up a magic circle in the room to isolate detection. Small magic experiments would not be detected by the outside world, so he could experiment with peace of mind.
To realize the punching machine, the main problems were the power source and the programmable control center. Not only did it have to be turned on and off, but it also had to be able to control the frequency and force of the hammer. Now, the only solution Tang En could think of to solve this problem was to use various magic circles.
It just so happened that with his current magic power, he could completely decompose and reorganize various magic circles to achieve his goals.
The power source on Earth could be roughly divided into two types: electricity and internal combustion engines. Tang En did not think about electricity for the time being. Although there were magic circles that could generate electricity, the source of energy was simpler and cleaner. He also knew the basic physics of electromagnetic conversion and could completely realize electromagnetic conversion to drive machinery. The biggest problem was that … he could not find magnets at all!
So in the end, he could only consider mechanical work.
The principle of internal combustion engines was also very simple. As mentioned before, the most basic principle was that the high temperature caused the air to expand. However, it was easy to say, but difficult to do. First of all, it was difficult to find suitable and low-cost materials to make combustion chambers in Prandal. Ordinary metal materials were not durable, and magic metals were too expensive …
Secondly, if the processing technology here was not up to standard, the lifespan of the piston would be very short, and the accident rate would be very high.
Therefore, he didn't even consider using a fire-type magic array.
It was difficult for the earth and water elements to play a role in this aspect. Although water element spells could be used as one of the power sources for hydroelectric power generation, what Tang En had to consider now was the miniaturization of the equipment.
"So the only power source I can consider is wind magic …"
Tang En stroked his chin as a whirlwind whistled in his palm.
Speaking of which, the wind magic circle could indeed be used as a power source, because this place was different from Earth. The law of conservation was invalid here, and part of Newton's three laws were also invalid, at least in the microscopic situation. Tang En felt that this was the most incredible point.
No matter what type of spell it was, when Twain cast it, he could clearly feel that there was no decrease in the surrounding matter — only his mana pool decreased. On the contrary, the things that increased were the spells that appeared, such as earth, water, fire, wind, and arcane spells.
Another example would be the most common Arcana Spell, Mage Hand.
A Mage could use Mage Hand to catch himself in the air and lift himself up. In Prandal, it was really f * cking possible!
However, using wind element spells as the power source of the press also had the same problem as before — the technical problems of the blast chamber and the piston …
"If only I majored in mechanical engineering in university …"
Tang En couldn't help but sigh. As an ordinary person, his level was similar to that of the most common university graduate. He could only vaguely remember and couldn't remember the specific details. Now, he could only slowly explore.
"Wait! Is there some kind of mistake … "
Tang En suddenly had an idea and crushed the whirlwind in his hand. "F * ck! I'm really confused. Why do I have to study power sources … "
Tang En made an empirical mistake again. On Earth, all kinds of machinery needed to convert the power source — electricity and internal combustion engine power — into mechanical energy, but this was not Earth!
This was Prandal!
Why take a detour when the problem could be solved directly with magic!?
"I want the press to work, why do I have to think about complicated power sources!? As long as the hammer can move up and down normally, it'll be fine! "
In an instant, Tang En's thoughts became clear. In other words, it was as if he had eaten a ginseng fruit, all the pores on his body were opened up.
In addition to wind element spells as the power source, there were also various arcana spells that could be used directly. Mage Hand could also be used directly, but the efficiency was too low.
"Transfiguration or Gravity Spell!"
After filtering through the arcana spells, Tang En finally decided on one of these two spells.
Some people might find it strange that Gravity Spell could make the hammer float and freely fall after it was turned off, but … what the hell was Transfiguration Spell?
In fact, the reason was very simple. Transfiguration Spell alone was useless, but with the principle of leverage, everyone would understand.
A small metal ingot suddenly appeared in Tang En's hand. If Brian saw it, he would probably go crazy.
It was a piece of Dragon Steel!
It was an extremely rare magic metal!
As long as a ten-thousandth of Dragon Steel was added to a weapon or armor, it could make the weapon or armor's performance greatly improve!
The small piece of Dragon Steel in Tang En's hand could be exchanged for a large territory! It was several times larger than Ellington's!
Tang En thought for a moment and cast a permanent Transfiguration Spell on the Dragon Steel ingot, reducing its size by ten times. At the same time, he added a condition: it would take effect every 0.1 seconds.
Then … Then Tang En cursed.
That small piece of Dragon Steel ingot crazily flashed in his hand, as if it was having a cramp.
"Fuck! Transfiguration Spell is too stupid, let's use Gravity Spell! "
Tang En immediately canceled the effect of the Transfiguration Spell, and the unlucky Dragon Steel ingot was freed.
However, this was only the beginning.
In the following period of time, Tang En began to fiddle with the Gravity Spell. From time to time, there would be bursts of exclamations, and the sound of banging and banging could be heard.
Soon, it was time for lunch. The tired Fiona had just arrived at Tang En's door when she saw the maid standing guard.
"Where is Sir Lord?"
The maid nervously said: "Miss Fiona, Sir Lord said that if he doesn't come out before dinner, no one is to disturb him."
"Oh?"
Fiona raised her eyebrows, remembering Tang En's words in the morning. She nodded: "I know, then don't bother with him. Let's eat first."
"You go first, I'll keep watch here."
Thus, Fiona directly left.
Time flew and it was evening.
Tang En awkwardly caught the flying dragon steel ingot in mid-air. After canceling the constant gravity spell, he was a little annoyed. "This won't do. After the constant levitation spell, I have to use it together with the restrainer."
But soon, Tang En thought of another problem. The problem of the spell's effectiveness could be solved easily, but how could he determine the point of impact?
"Oh … Wait! I can solve it like this! "
Tang En's eyes flashed as he thought of a solution. He engraved a Gravity Amplification Magic Array on the base of the mold, and at the same time, increased the conditions for determining the impact. After the impact, it would immediately stop the mana output. After the hammer's Float took effect, the Gravity Amplification Magic Array would take effect again, and the hammer would accelerate its fall, thus forming a perfect cycle.
"As long as I cast Float on the hammer and engraved a Gravity Amplification Magic Array on the base of the mold, it would be able to offset the Float effect of the hammer! I only need to adjust the Gravity Amplification Magic Array on the base to increase the impact force. Wahahaha, I am a genius! "
Tang En looked up to the sky and laughed wildly.
It had been a difficult day for him. At first, he wanted to solve the problem of the power source. Later, he used magic to solve the problem directly. Although it was a very simple step, it was very difficult to take because he first had to overcome the inertia of thinking that he had developed on Earth.
This was the Prandal world, where there were gods and the incredible power of magic!
He had to get used to solving problems with the power of this world.
After the key problem was solved, the rest was simple. The hammer, which had been a headache for Brian and the others, only needed to be molded with a Softening Spell and then solidified again. However, it would be too wasteful to use the magic metals that he had collected for the hammer. In the end, Tang En rummaged through the materials and finally found a set of adamantine ingots that he had almost forgotten.
"No Magic Iron Ingots or Mithril Ingots … Fine, I'll just use adamantine then. At least it won't be as eye-catching as Dragon Steel and Starflash Gold."
Tang En muttered to himself as he finished molding the adamantine ingots. Then, he used some leftover materials to get the other parts out. Finally, he was done.
"When they finish building the other parts, the first stamping machine in Prandal will be ready!"
Tang En put away the parts and his eyes fell on the ponytail on the table. He clapped his hands and said, "I almost forgot about the important thing! Toothbrush! Toothbrush! "
If Brian and Edgar were present, they would probably cry. They thought that this was an epic event that was about to change the entire forging industry, but Tang En did not even consider it a serious matter!
The stamping machine was not as good as a toothbrush!?
What the hell was this!?
However, Tang En did not care about that. After coming to Prandal, there were many places that he was not used to. There were too many inconveniences in eating, living, and even going to the toilet.
"I'll change this place slowly when I have time. For now, I can only do it bit by bit."
Tang En muttered. He took out a group of branches from his bag. After taking out one branch, he put away the others. Under the control of magic, the branch was cut into shape little by little. Soon, it became the shape of a toothbrush.
If there were mages or elves who knew what was good for them, they would probably fight him to the death.
That bundle of branches was the branches of the World Tree. = = =
