Farming in a Parallel World and Becoming a God

Chapter 2628: Chapter 1141: Magic Technology Is Still Technology_3

"As for whether it’s feasible, let’s wait until I manage to make a Binding Container, then we’ll talk. There’s actually quite a lot we can reference here." Philancy suggested. "Have your people keep an eye out and see if they can acquire a manual on Iron Golem manufacture. And if you can get hold of a Divine Lamp, so much the better."

"The Iron Golem manufacture manual isn’t hard. With my connections, neither the Witch Secret Meeting of the Laiserman Kingdom nor the War Mages of the Komeer Kingdom would refuse to sell one."

Gaven frowned slightly. "But a Divine Lamp, that kind of rare wonder, is something you can only hope to come across. After all, many people treat the three Wish Spells as priceless treasures; they won’t take them out lightly, much less sell them."

"Do your best." Philancy didn’t press the matter. "Anyway, this is a process that will advance slowly. We already have a good start."

"Didn’t you say there were three conditions, Teacher? What’s the third one?" Gaven was planning to find solutions to all three prerequisites in one go.

"The third one, we’ve already found a solution for." Philancy answered with a smile. "A Magic Flying Device can’t be shaped directly out of Magic Force like a Shadow Flyer. It requires large numbers of excellent Blacksmiths working together with Magic Apprentices.

I’m sure Blacksmiths won’t be a problem for you; the biggest problem is the large number of Magic Apprentices.

That can only be handed over to the Arcane Academy.

The larger the Arcane Academy you’re building, the greater the production capacity that will explode out of it in the future."

"That’s not entirely a bad thing." Gaven mused. "The Shadow Flyer counts as a traditional special Magic Product; it makes extremely high demands on the Spellcasters, and also requires large quantities of Soul Purification Essence.

Our newly developed Magic Flying Device is different.

It’s an entire industrial chain.

At the beginning of production, we’ll inevitably have to overcome numerous difficulties.

Manpower, material resources, and technology—none of them can be dispensed with.

But once it’s established, the production capacity that bursts forth will absolutely be something the former can’t compare to.

It will be directly proportional to the manpower and resources we invest. That is the normal path of development for a society."

"Exactly. That’s what I want." Philancy sighed, then deliberately steered the topic in a completely different direction. "We’ve already entered Darama’s airspace. Do we need to go down and inspect things, and pay a visit to your City Lord lover?"

"No need. My task today is to accompany Teacher in solving problems." Gaven was well aware that discussing another woman in front of one with whom he had emotional entanglements was not a wise choice.

Even though he was very curious about Zalanda’s progress in Thacel.

But since he had already returned, making a trip there was only a matter of time; there was no need to rush it.

"There’s a huge surprise waiting for you there, though." Philancy’s half-smile didn’t look like jealousy; it was more like a bystander enjoying the show.

"A huge surprise? What kind of surprise?" Gaven couldn’t help asking back.

"If you already knew, it wouldn’t be called a surprise." Philancy clearly had no intention of answering. "You’d best let Lord Zalanda answer that one for you!"

"All right." Gaven didn’t think too much about it and simply pulled the conversation back. "Since we’re building a Magic Items industrial chain, we shouldn’t limit ourselves to just the Magic Flying Device’s R&D.

We can also apply the same framework to all sorts of fields—like weapons, Armor, production tools, and everyday goods.

Compared to the Magic Flying Device, the technical requirements for these are relatively lower and they’re much easier to manufacture."

"That is indeed one direction, but what you’ve said is too general. Do you have any more detailed ideas?"

"I do. Let’s take weapons and Armor. Those bound elements—can we inlay them directly into the gear, to provide Attack power or Defense?

If we can do that, doesn’t it mean Magic Weapon and Magic Armor can be mass-produced?"

"In theory, yes. The key to Magic Weapons is their element gathering ability. With bound elements, it’s equivalent to placing an enchantment on the weapons and Armor. But there’s a prerequisite: miniaturizing the Binding Devices."

"Which brings up another issue: what material does Teacher plan to use to make the Binding Devices?"

"At the moment, I have two ideas."

"Let’s hear them."

"The first idea is gemstones. Gemstones are very common and also the most frequently used Binding medium. Different gemstones have different degrees of compatibility with different elements. Many a Magic Necklace or Magic Ring, at its core, is just bound elements producing Magic Effects.

But this approach has very distinct pros and cons.

The advantage is naturally that it’s easy to miniaturize, the technology is mature, and it’s the quickest path to results.

The downside is the high cost: we’re limited by gemstone output, and we also need highly skilled gemstone-processing craftsmen."

"And the second idea?"

"The second idea is to design an entirely new Binding Device—using ordinary materials combined with a Binding Array to bind elements within it, just like a Divine Lamp.

The pros and cons here don’t need me to say much. There are too many unknowns; we might invest huge amounts of manpower and resources only to end up with nothing."

"That doesn’t sound like you at all, Teacher. Isn’t exploring the unknown the greatest joy of an Arcanist?

You don’t need to worry about manpower and resources. Whatever you need, I’ll provide.

All you’ll need to do then is devote all your energy to research and development.

And these two ideas don’t conflict; they can proceed in parallel. Perhaps, in the course of research, they’ll even produce unexpected synergies.

This trip to Colossus City, I’ll also introduce you to a top-tier Gnome Gemstone Artisan."
