v2 Chapter 1674: Tough tasks, high-volume printing

At this moment, Xia Duo realized that his future enemies were not outside, but inside the civilization, not even real individuals, but a devil called "fame, wealth and power".

Specific and tangible enemies are easy to deal with, just destroy the physical body, but the inner selfish desires cannot be eradicated. Even Xia Duo himself has various dark, crazy, or weird ideas from time to time.

There may be such people who can always control their inner desires and practice their own beliefs, but there will never be many, especially in the current era where everyone wants to become a mage and become a master.

In a sense, the worshipers of the gods are the qualified candidates in Xia Duo's opinion.

It's just that "the way is different, and we don't conspire with each other", even the believers of the gods are difficult to use for him. All he really relies on is learning!

"Keep in mind the mission and never forget the original intention. This is a long-term and arduous task!"

"Xia Duo, get ready to start work!"

All the thoughts in the sky dissipated with Niya's call, but they left a deep imprint in Xia Duo's heart, and they would wake up at any time.

Azurite plane.

The construction site of the floating city.

In a microgravity environment, Niya dragged something that looked like an old-fashioned vacuum cleaner in Xia Duo’s hometown, and scanned the ground back and forth with a device like a long suction port on it, stopping from time to time to compare the construction drawings to check whether it was correct.

While Xia Duo was watching from the sidelines, occasionally pointing out a few words. After seeing that Niya was already familiar with the operation method of the Mithril printing machine, he also picked up a printing machine and started his own work.

The floating city is huge, and it is not suitable for mass production. It is definitely not possible to use pouring to make Mithril components, so Xia Duo invented a special printing machine.

Similar to the "3D printer" on the earth, it can convert solid Mithril into a liquid state, print it on a specific position through a strip-shaped scanning head, and then condense it into a solid state.

This device Xia Duo is very handy to use, the only downside is that the device cannot work automatically, there is always a user.

But compared to casting spells to complete the production of Mithril components, it is undoubtedly a lot more convenient to have tools.

And because Xia Duo considered the workload of large-scale production from the beginning, he transformed the three-dimensional mithril components into flat lines that can be printed easily, reducing the workload again.

The Mithril circuit printed by Xia Duo and Niya is part of the flight control system, but strictly speaking, it may be more appropriate to attribute it to the energy system.

The generation base of the suspended field—the key facility of the energy center, without it, the [Mythra] device under the existing technology cannot work at all, and cannot even be preserved.

Whether Xia Duo wants to build the flight control system of the floating city, or build a new [Mythra] device, it is inseparable from the base of the floating field.

It can be said that apart from the stone shell outside, the real construction of the floating city started from the moment.

"Niya, how is the situation over there?"

"It's going well, and now the second layer is being printed."

"Well, don't worry, we have plenty of time!"

After Xia Duo made a reminder, he started printing the third layer of Mithril circuits numbered [1-2] on the base of the floating field.

Of course, he also wanted to use only one floor, which would be easier to maintain, but with one floor, the converted lines would be very dense, and it would be difficult to arrange six floating fields that could be rotated in a limited space.

Then we can only consider stratification.

Of course, if Xia Duo is very, very rich, he can use higher-purity mithril to make thinner lines.

But alas, he didn't.

In order to reduce the rate of element transmutation reaction, there are only two options, one is to increase the purity of Mithril, and the other is to pile up.

Similar to the thicker the wire on the earth, the lower the resistance. Here, the larger the Mithril component, the rate of element transmutation reaction remains the same, but compared with the huge volume, the overall metamorphic time is prolonged.

Unlike the resistance on the earth, which only generates heat and has little effect on the circuit function, sometimes it is enough to add an additional auxiliary cooling device.

However, the flow of element energy in the magical world is more similar to superconductivity. Once the transmutation of elements reaches a certain level, it is similar to the "quench" of superconducting circuits on the earth. Although it is not as serious as the quenching of superconducting devices, it is related A functional outage is also almost inevitable.

As for the chain reaction, it depends on the specific situation. Sometimes the consequences may not be as serious as superconducting quenching.

This is also the reason why Xia Duo insisted on linking the magic net. If the mithril components were purely used as the source of spells related to the functions of the Floating Void City, apart from being cumbersome, the elemental transmutation reaction would be the biggest problem.

And if the magic net is connected, the mithril components are more of a supplement to the magic net. Most of the reactions are carried out in the magic net strings, and the mithril components only need to provide energy buffering.

The biggest focus of energy buffering is actually in each energy buffering core (usually with five-color gemstones, but a better choice is arcane energy crystals), which greatly reduces the rate of deterioration of Mithril components.

Only in this way is it possible for so-called permanent magic items to appear.

Of course, there is also constant magic, but this is almost entirely dependent on the magic net. Once there is a problem with the magic net, there will be 100% trouble with constant magic.

As for the Mithril component plan, as long as a redundant system is built in advance, even if there is a problem with the magic net, at least it can be implemented safely.

There is no doubt that Xia Duo has prepared a redundant system for the floating city, and it is far more than one or two, but multiple sets exist at the same time.

After all, he has already paid most of his net worth for the Floating Void City, and has also advanced his future income, and as the absolute core territory of the future, if something happens to this thing, he will definitely be in pain.

Of course, since the Mithril component scheme was chosen as the main design scheme~lightnovelpub.net~, Xia Duo also predicted the possible existence time of the floating city. As long as it is properly maintained, there should be no major problems within a hundred years. questionable.

If it is more than a hundred years old, it may require a major overhaul from time to time, and it may be more cost-effective to build a new one at that time.

Soon, Xia Duo had completed all the six layers of mithril circuits numbered [1-2], and Niya had also printed on the fourth layer circuit numbered [1-1].

The speed is not bad.

Because there is no need to link to the magic net for the time being, except for comparing the construction drawings, it is purely physical work. Xia Duo's physique is far beyond ordinary people, and he does not need to rest at all. Immediately began the printing of the mithril circuit numbered [1-3].

The main energy center located in the center of the floating city has a total of six floating field generation bases, numbered from [1-1] to [1-6], and now half of them have been completed.

Although Xia Duo and Niya said they were not in a hurry, he still subconsciously speeded up.
