Tang En was stumped by Angus' question.
The supply of magic power was a big problem.
Even if they were powered by magic essences, the miniaturized magic crystal cannons could only fire a few times. Although chainswords, electromagnetic cannons, and assault rifles consumed less magic power, the magic crystal cannons required a lot of magic power, considering their huge size and the consumption of continuous combat.
Although the source of magic power could provide an endless supply of magic power, the cost of building a source of magic power was too high. It was impossible to implant a source of magic power in every Giant Golden Statue.
Moreover, the magic power of the source of magic power might have to be absorbed and transformed before it could be used.
The omnipresent magic power was a clean energy source that Prandal had, which was not available on Earth.
This seemed to be the basic law of the universe — after all, magic power was also widespread in the Astral Plane.
However, even if magic power was omnipresent, it was still a problem to use magic power efficiently.
Magic power did have many advantages, such as widespread, endless, clean and pollution-free, and a wide range of uses, but it also had an unavoidable drawback — it was too scattered.
Yes, magic power was indeed widespread, but magic power itself was a very thin power. The mage was like a refining machine, absorbing magic power from the world into his own body, extracting and refining it, and then releasing it in a highly concentrated and efficient way, thus achieving a highly efficient use of magic power.
But the Giant Golden Statue was just a man-made construct. To put it bluntly, it was a robot. How could a robot simulate the process of a mage absorbing and refining magic power?
It couldn't be done!
Unless it directly used high-concentration magic power crystals that existed in nature — magic crystals — to supply the energy directly.
But this was like using lead-acid batteries to power a Gundam, the power was too high and it couldn't be driven at all …
Magic Essence was the highest storage of magic power in nature. If even Magic Essence couldn't meet the consumption, the mage could only directly do it himself.
Looking at the Magic Cannon Armor in front of him, it was indeed powerful, but other than the Dragons, who else in Prandal could use this kind of weapon?
No other race could use it.
Tang En, who was silent for a long time, slowly raised his head and suddenly asked a strange question, "Angus, do you know how magic crystals are formed?"
Angus was startled. "Why do you ask? Jean and I have studied it before, but the specific reason for its formation is still unclear … Jean speculated that it should be in an environment where magic is deposited. Under special conditions, magic erodes or attaches to the mineral, and then gradually forms after a long period of development. "
Tang En nodded, and then suddenly asked, "If, I mean, if, we can artificially create something with far more mana reserves than Mana Essence, can we solve this problem?"
Angus was shocked. "This is simply wishful thinking! How is that possible?! "
"Why not?"
Tang En had a strange expression on his face. "Capable magicians usually use emeralds to infuse magic and make magic gems for backup (see Chapter 119). The more powerful ones can even directly condense magic to form magic gems. At the critical moment, they can draw magic from it to release spells. Since we can make artificial magic gems, we can naturally make things with a higher magic content."
Tang En thought of the artificially synthesized metallic hydrogen on Earth.
Under ultra-high pressure, liquid hydrogen was compressed into metallic hydrogen. Metallic hydrogen had a very small volume, but it could release a very large amount of energy.
By the same logic, if they could figure out the reason for the formation of magic veins and magic crystals, and then deeply analyze the reason for the formation of a higher level of Mana Essence, determine if there was a causal relationship between the two, and then use artificial means to create further formation conditions (such as the high-temperature and high-pressure methods commonly used to make new materials on Earth), would they be able to artificially create more powerful energy materials?
Although it was very likely Tang En's wishful thinking, it was very likely that they could find a better energy source to replace Mana Essence to drive the Giant Golden Statue through this method.
"This …"
Angus was speechless. What Tang En said was simply wishful thinking. How could it be possible to do such a thing with human strength?
But looking at his expression, it was clear that he was seriously considering the feasibility of it.
After thinking for a moment, Angus made up his mind and nodded. "I'll go back and study it with Jean and try it out. I'm also very curious if it can be done to that extent. If it can really be done, then we will undoubtedly open up a new era."
Open up a new era?
A new era had already arrived …
After putting away all the Magic Cannon Armors, Tang En was just about to leave when Angus handed him a Space Ring.
"This is?"
Angus laughed and said, "A special Magic Cannon Armor for Elsa."
Other Megalosaurus might not always stand firmly on Tang En's side, but Elsa was definitely Tang En's loyal fan. How could something as good as the Magic Cannon Armor be left out of Elsa?
Angus and the others used the Demon-Sucking Metal to make the armor not only to enhance the defensive ability, but also to dig out some Oricha Steel to make a special armor for Elsa in her Megalosaurus form.
Her Magic Cannon Armor covered a larger area and had stronger defensive ability. More importantly, after wearing it, she would no longer need to wear any skirts in her Megalosaurus form …
After that, Tang En, Sasaglot, and Eluri went directly to Dragon Island through the teleportation portal.
In the Temple of Order, Hobmavis was humming a song as she took a bath in the holy spring. She heard a gust of wind behind her head, and the slightly plump Hobmavis dodged Sasaglot's sneak attack at an incredible speed.
"Hmph! How dare you steal my food reserves when I'm not around! "
Huh!? You attacked me because of this!?
Tang En was stunned. He thought that Hobmavis had broken some taboo by taking a bath here.
"Ahem, it's a waste to leave it here anyway. I thought you were letting us eat as much as we want since you didn't keep it."
Hobmavis shook her butt and shook off the water on her scales. She then looked at the shiny blue scales for a while and admired them narcissistically. "By the way, didn't you go to Ellington for a vacation? Why are you back so soon? I thought you would stay there for a few decades. "
Vacation for a few decades!?
Damn it … Immortals have such a damn concept of time!
"Cut the crap."
Sasaglot shouted excitedly, "Quickly call Guro, Nars, and Zovie over! It's time for us to show off our skills! "
Hobmavis was stunned. Suddenly, her eyes lit up. "Is the Magic Cannon Armor finished!?"
"Nonsense!"
Sasaglot smiled proudly. "Call them over. Watch me lead them to blast those creatures of chaos into smithereens!"
Hobmavis immediately rose into the air and rushed out while roaring.
Not long after, deafening dragon roars suddenly sounded in the sky above Dragon Island. Tang En looked up and saw a few Megalosaurus flying over from afar.
Sasaglot smiled and said, "Guro, Nar Hakesha, and Zovie are the first Megalosaurus on Dragon Island. At the same time, they are also the strongest warriors of the Megalosaurus Army. This time, call out the eight strongest of them. Together with the Dragon Queen and myself, the ten of us equipped with the Magic Cannon Armor can definitely blast those three creatures of chaos into smithereens!"
Sasaglot's confidence was not baseless. The other eight first generation Megalosaurus were actually almost as strong as him. One could imagine how terrifying they were.
Eight … No, nine Megalosaurus landed in the Temple of Order along with the strong airflow. Tang En looked at the Megalosaurus in a tattered dress with a stunned expression. The corner of his mouth kept twitching. "E, Elsa?"
"Brother? Don't look, it's too embarrassing … "
Elsa, whose face was covered with dust, blinked and covered her head with her wings. She was obviously a little embarrassed to see Tang En at this moment.
"What are you embarrassed about!"
The other Black Dragon, who should be Nar Hakesha, patted Elsa unhappily. "Raise your head like a real warrior!"
"Yes, yes …"
Elsa subconsciously straightened her body and raised her head high. Even in the form of a Megalosaurus, Tang En could clearly feel Elsa's nervousness.
"Uh."
Sasaglot said to Tang En, "Considering the problem of Elu's bloodline, I let Nars teach her how to control her own power. Don't worry, Nars also taught her parents before. He is a very qualified teacher."
Qualified?
Tang En was quite doubtful about this. Could the Megalosaurus' teaching method be the same as the eagle's method of teaching a chick?
"Enough of the nonsense!"
Sasaglot shook his body and returned to the form of a Megalosaurus. He said with a grim smile, "Today, our human friends have brought us something good. Do you still remember the Oricha Steel we made a while ago? They have all been made into Magic Cannon Armor! Now it's time for us to launch a counterattack! "
"Roar!!!"
"Magic Cannon Armor?"
"Is that the thing Your Majesty The Dragon King played with so happily last time?"
"That's great! I can't wait to burn those dregs to ashes! "
Tang En did not hide anymore. He directly took out all ten sets of Magic Cannon Armor and lined them up in a row in the Temple of Order.
Looking at the sparkling Magic Cannon Armor, the first-generation Megalosaurus were boiling with excitement. As long as they passed through this thing, they would not have to be restrained and could directly kill those motherf * ckers!
"Damn creatures of Chaos, this time we must get rid of them completely!"
Nar Hakesha roared to the sky. "Their end is coming!"
"Don't be so noisy!"
Sasaglot bumped his head over. "Quickly equip the Magic Cannon Armor and get used to the new way of fighting!"
