Chapter 563
At Lee Han’s words, Professor Alpen checked again to see if he had missed something.
Certainly, it was an excellent composition that made it feel like Professor Verdus taught it well.
This composition, which efficiently and neatly arranged the artifacts without any extra waste, did not seem to have made it better even if it was Lee Han’s senior.
However, no matter how you look at it, it didn’t reduce the mana consumption as much as Lee Han had concluded.
“how?”
“yes?”
“So… look. Wardanaz County. Just looking at the artifacts located at the southern gate here, aren’t there < Enhancing Hardness >, < Corrosion Prevention > and < Enemy Detect > enchantments applied? Then at least three chests of medium-quality or higher magic stones won’t be consumed per day.”
“ah. sorry. I forgot to write it down.”
Lee Han apologized and added.
“This is a calculated result under the assumption that mana is overcharged when crafting an artifact. Among the artifacts placed in the fortress, simple artifacts can be maintained for more than ten years without additional magic power supply if they are overcharged with magic power during production.”
“?”
“??”
Professor Alpen and the guild members also put question marks on their faces.
I couldn’t understand what the first year student in front of me was saying.
“Such… Is there such a thing? professor. We don’t know much about magic, but are there artifacts like that? I am hearing it for the first time.”
“Hmm. As far as I know… in theory, it should have that effect.”
Professor Alpen explained to the embarrassed guild members.
If the structure of an artifact is broadly divided, it can be divided into a nucleus that composes magic and a power source that supplies mana to the nucleus.
At this time, the endowment mages would put their heart and soul into sharpening and refining the magic circle in order to increase the efficiency of this power unit.
The amount of mana consumed by the artifact varied depending on the degree of perfection of this part.
However, in theory, what if, instead of putting so much effort into it, the core was endowed with mana to the limit and then sealed?
Even if you don’t put much effort outside, you will be able to supply and demand horsepower on your own.
“By the way, isn’t there a magician who makes something like this?”
It was.
Professor Alpen and the guild members were flustered for a reason.
It was because very few wizards created artifacts in this way.
It was only a trivial matter to build a structure or increase the strength to withstand the overloaded magic power, and the biggest problem was that there was no magician who could grant it that much.
It’s much more stable if you just supply mana on a regular basis, so why should a wizard inject dangerous amounts of mana that would cost him his life?
It’s not an artifact that can’t supply magic power again once you make it…
“Huh? Don’t you?”
“As far as I know, none.”
“……”
Lee Han was embarrassed.
This was an all-too-common way to learn or help work under Professor Verdus.
-professor.
-……
-Professor.
-……
-Professor! professor! professor!!
-Ahh! Why are you screaming in your ear? Why are you doing this?
-sorry. You didn’t hear me.
-What are you talking about? you didn’t call
-…Anyway, professor. I have a question. The enchantment magic books I’ve seen don’t endow artifacts with so much magic, but aren’t they giving too much magic?
-are you okay. are you okay. look. The more you give, the more efficient it is.
-That’s true, but why in the book of magic?
-It’s because it was taken in the old days.
-Is this a book that came out last year?
-It’s a long time ago. And it’s because the guy who wrote it was stupid.
-No… He’s a wizard who has some experience and has published several papers…?
-I can still be stupid. ruler. It’s okay. Any problems? efficient?
-Is safety okay?
-So you have to do well so that it doesn’t explode. It hasn’t exploded so far, so you’re doing well.
-Professor, aren’t you just talking roughly because you’re bothered?
– Why don’t you trust me? trust me.
‘shit. I believed it.’
Lee Han remembered Professor Verdus and gnashed his teeth.
Even if you’ve been beaten like that, you’re beaten again!
I thought it was strange, but it seemed that he didn’t do this well outside.
‘Well, I can’t do it this way.’
Looking at the expressions of the people around him, he wondered why Lee Han hadn’t noticed himself.
Could it be that if you enter Einrogard, your intelligence will go down?
If you make it this way, the magic power of the wizard will be consumed too much, and the risk of an accident will greatly increase if you make a mistake during production… “I’m
sorry. Because of my habit of working with Professor Verdus, I inadvertently calculated this.”
“You mean Professor Verdus? Did you learn this from Professor Verdus?”
“yes.”
Lee Han was slightly excited when the old professor reacted quite loudly.
‘Are you going to beat up Professor Verdus?’
If so, I thought I’d miss a little bit.
“Really great. Professor Verdus! A genius is not a genius for nothing.”
“…???”
Not knowing that Lee Han was shocked, Professor Alpen continued.
“okay. In fact, I heard that Professor Verdus’s genius is so outstanding that he is having trouble teaching his students, but looking at this, I think that statement is a bit exaggerated. To pass on one’s own vision to a disciple in such a wonderful way.”
“No… Uh… Is this a vision?”
Lee Han was taken aback.
Of course, any method of descending secretly could be called a vision, but in that respect, Gainando’s < Secretly Eating Snacks During Lecture > could also be called a vision.
But don’t you usually get treated like a crazy person if you go around calling that kind of vision?
“You could call it a vision. Wardanaz County. Didn’t you increase the efficiency of the artifact like this? You may not know much because you are still inexperienced, but this is a really great result.”
“That… Magical consumption is dangerous… Accidents are also dangerous…”
“Didn’t you say there were no problems while working with Professor Verdus?”
“…That’s right…”
Professor Alpen tapped Lee Han on the shoulder with a strong hand.
“Mr. Wardanaz. I usually advise students to be humble. But I guess I’ll have to give you some different advice. Moderately humble! This is something to be proud of. Both you and Professor Verdus, who taught you.”
Feeling very unfair, Lee Han came up with a last resort.
“By the way, Professor. Doesn’t Professor Verdus usually act like an eccentric?”
He took out Professor Verdus’ reputation and began to hang on to it like a water ghost.
No matter how little Professor Alpen has been in Einlogard, if you think of what happened to Professor Verdus from time to time, this result is more like ‘the crazy master abuses his students without caring about safety’ rather than ‘the beautiful succession of a genius teacher and a genius student’. ‘.
“It doesn’t.”
“Yes?”
“But isn’t that the case with all Professor Ein Rogard?”
“……”
Lee Han was speechless for the first time in a while.
* * *
The guild members who understood after hearing the explanation were so moved that they shed tears.
To think that a disciple who had been trained directly by the genius professor of Ein Rogard would mobilize his vision to arrange the artifacts for the fortress.
“This… we might be in a historic position right now.”
“That’s right.”
Although they were guild members from many different guilds, their hearts were filled with the same emotion.
“It’s like…”
“It’s like < The Miracle of the Three Wizards >.”
The guild members muttered at the same time without realizing it.
Miracle of the Three Wizards.
At that time, the treasury of the lord of Ganithalas was completely empty due to revolts and raids.
The budget the three wizards in the castle were able to spend was less than 1/10 of the usual amount of gold coins.
Nonetheless, the three mages worked together with the guilds of Ganithalas to create miracles.
This miracle was not just a magician’s miracle.
It was also the miracle of the guild members who helped the wizards complete the castle gate.
Wizards shuddered at the greatness of magic in that anecdote, but guild members holding hammers and chisels shuddered at the beauty of technology in that anecdote.
‘No, why such an anecdote?’
Lee Han was horrified to hear the other person talking.
Why did he bother to bring a terrible anecdote about how the wicked castle lord managed wizards and guild members with less than 1/10 of the budget?
It was something I couldn’t understand no matter how much I thought about it.
However, the guild members did not care and talked.
“A building with a soul does not disappear and remains forever. okay. Maybe this < Pocket Knife Fortress > will become a < Miracle of the Three Wizards > for us.”
“Let’s make the guild’s name known to the Empire!”
“Yes, let’s let the name of the guild be known to the Empire!!”
The stonemasons and carpenters guilds, who had been at odds with each other until just now, shook hands and made a firm commitment.
Seeing this, Professor Alpen had a moved expression on his face.
Of course, the professor was aware of their awkward relationship.
As many guilds joined forces to receive orders, they had no choice but to calculate each other’s gains or losses.
However, when the glory of being able to make a name for themselves in the empire came in front of them, they united like craftsmen.
“Mr. Wardanaz. are you watching Your magic is what brought them together.”
“No… No matter how much I concede, that’s not the case…”
“Heh heh. I said you can be moderately humble!”
‘Did I get the request for nothing?’
Lee Han had never regretted accepting a request that offered money.
But this time, it seemed like it would be a little regretful.
‘Come to think of it, this may all be because of Professor Verdus.’
When this work is over, Lee Han promised that he would definitely take revenge on Professor Verdus.
* * *
Lee Han, who came out of Professor Alpen’s room, felt several times more tired than before.
-We will make sure to spread the fame of the mage throughout the empire!
-Yes, thank you. But if you just pay me well, I’m good enough…
– No! Stay tuned!
‘Mmm. I hope the payoff won’t be delayed.’
Even when the guild members were excited and said, ‘I will make a building that will be known throughout the empire’, it didn’t really touch Lee Han.
Rather, I was worried that the other person would be too excited.
It was strange at first glance to be worried about the other person’s excitement, but there was a reason for the concern.
Build a building with the budget received from the Empire- >Excitedly trying to improve the building’s completeness- >It costs more than the initial estimate- >Sorry wizard, please wait a little bit!
At best, the cost was reduced, but Lee Han was worried that they would try to raise the quality in other areas.
‘I’ll have to tell the professor again later just in case.’
To be blunt, it might sound rude, so I thought of sending it, ‘I’m worried about the guild members, so I make it moderately, right?’
“Student Lee Han. Lee Han student.”
“oh. professor.”
When Professor Garcia called, Lee Han raised his head happily.
There were very few cases where I felt welcome when called by a professor at Ein Rogard, and one of those very few cases was Professor Lee Garcia.
“What are you doing?”
“Would you like to come in for a second?”
Lee Han followed Professor Garcia into the classroom without any suspicion.
In the middle of the classroom was a pit so deep and dark that it was impossible to see the bottom.
“…I trusted the professor!!”
Lee Han immediately pulled out his staff and rolled aside.
Professor Garcia was taken aback by the sight.
“Why why? What did I do wrong?”
“…wasn’t that trying to push you into a pit?”
“…Student Lee Han. Has Professor Baegrek ever pushed a student Lee Han into a pit like this?”
