Chapter 247 Magic Lamps and Electric Lamps
"Earl Red Maple, Black Iron Stone!"
A dark and deep castle emerged in Mo Lan's mind. It was a long time ago, the time went back to the first time Mo Lan came into contact with elemental stone and had this concept for the first time.
“In order to build the Mage Tower, I went to the mountains to look for the origin of the Red Maple Castle according to the rumors.
Unfortunately, in the end, because the mountains were too vast, looking for a mineral vein was like looking for a needle in a haystack, so they gave up. Until now, they have not found the place where Earl Red Maple mined the black iron stone.
Finally, we had no choice but to find this kind of stone from the rock layer hundreds of as the main material of the Mage Tower."
Mo Lan said softly.
“And I once destroyed the castle made of pure black iron stone.
Later I heard that Earl Red Maple had just dug up the black iron stone, and then he came to my mage tower with full confidence, but was killed by my basic attack.
In this case, the black iron stones are either still in the hands of the Red Maple Family or have been divided up by other nobles."
“I didn’t think the black iron stone of a castle meant anything before, but now I see it’s priceless.
And the black iron stone in a castle should be enough for me to build a wizard tower, right?
"Xiaoyi!"
As soon as Mo Lan finished speaking, the Winged Sky Beast, which was rolling around in the space lotus, was stunned, then flapped its wings and flew up.
Under the moonlight, the crack in the wall on the fifth floor of the Mage Tower was unusually eye-catching, and it seemed that the previous explosion had not alarmed anyone.
Those who were sleeping and heard the explosion would just turn over, cursing and muttering about who was the shameless one who set off the explosion in the middle of the night.
Those who did not sleep and were still discussing and doing experiments were even calmer. They might be a little panicked at first, but after they reacted they were no longer panicked and some were even a little happy.
It's not me who got fried today! Happy!
In this situation, the Winged Sky Beast flapped its wings and took off. Mo Lan stood on the back of the Winged Sky Beast with his hands behind his back, soaring into the sky under the moonlight.
The Winged Sky Beast was getting faster and faster, and Mo Lan noticed that the Winged Sky Beast seemed to have learned to use the space extension spell to shorten the space in front of it and lengthen the space behind it, thereby adding power to its flight.
Damn, warp flight?
A thought suddenly popped up in Mo Lan's mind, which scared him. He then shook his head and denied his own idea.
" You're overthinking it. How can there be such a slow curvature flight? Impossible. If this is curvature flight, it would be ridiculous."
Putting this incredible thought aside, he looked down at Red Maple City.
The sense of class in Red Maple City becomes more obvious at night.
In the innermost circle, candles flickered in the castles, illuminating the small windows of the castles in an unusually eerie manner. This was the aristocratic area.
In the middle circle, there are occasionally some houses with flickering candle lights, and quite a few houses with flickering fireplace lights. This is the area for civilians, handicrafts and professionals.
It was pitch black outside, with only the moonlight shining, and no other light. This was a slum where people couldn't even afford to burn wood.
The outermost circle is brightly lit with lanterns, torches, bonfires, spell lamps, and electric lights everywhere. It is the player area.
"Hmm? It seems like something different has mixed in?"
Mo Lan was stunned and turned around to look. He saw two lights in the center of the market, dozens of meters apart, each emitting a bright light.
One of them was an electric lamp, and underneath it was a huge battery. From time to time, someone would cast a spell to create a weak electric current to charge the battery.
On the other side should be a magic lamp made based on the principle of light magic. There is also a wizard who uses mental power to guide some light elements into it from time to time to maintain the activation of light magic.
Mo Lan could vaguely hear the two of them competing with each other.
"My light bulb can be used as long as there is electricity. I don't need to explain the advantages and disadvantages. As long as I improve the battery, it will be the best. Unlike yours, you need to input light elements from time to time."
"Oh, we're still waiting for you to perfect the battery. What if you perfect the battery? Where are you going to charge it? Use your own lightning spell to charge it? Doesn't that mean only mages can use it?
Brother, times have changed. Electricity itself is a rare commodity in this era.
My magic lamp, although not perfect yet, but as long as I perfect the storage and gathering of light elements, I can use it anywhere.
No wire connection is needed, no energy replenishment is needed, and even no sunlight is needed. The light element is everywhere!"
Mo Lan looked at the two lights with emotion, and suddenly reacted.
“It seems that I am not the only one making progress and creating.
The world is not a TV show. It only shows the part on the screen. Even the places I can’t see are changing all the time. This era is developing at a very fast pace!”
Mo Lan came to his senses a little.
"Maybe I can go out more often when I have time. It's good to study quietly, but it's not good to work in isolation. Many inconspicuous places may hide great wisdom, and some innovative creations may be the source of my inspiration."
“Brother, don’t be bound by the development path of reality. Science is a method, not a discipline.
In reality, electricity as a convenient energy source has developed into dazzling modern technology.
In the game, the environment is filled with endless elements, which are natural, efficient, convenient and clean energy.
Why can't we refer to modern technology, use elements as energy, and climb a completely new technology tree?
Isn’t that fun, isn’t that more challenging?”
Mo Lan was quite touched when he heard what the person below said, and he even became interested in going down to take a look.
But he still shook his head.
"No hurry, do your business first, and then come back here to take a look after you're done."
He patted the Winged Sky Beast gently, and the Winged Sky Beast, which was originally hovering in the air, shook its fins and quickly moved forward.
Soon Mo Lan arrived at the center of Red Maple City, the original Red Maple Castle.
There is now a large lake where the former Red Maple Castle was. On the edge of the lake stands a small gray castle, which is very new, very narrow, and very dilapidated.
Inside the small castle, several teams of knights were waiting in the yard, guarding the last dignity of this family.
Mo Lan took a few glances but didn't find any trace of black iron stone.
"Moved away by those nobles?"
Mo Lan frowned slightly and landed beside the lake on his Yikong Beast. After putting Mo Lan on the shore, the Yikong Beast dived into the lake, its body below the water surface, leaving only a pair of big round eyes staring at Mo Lan.
The moment Mo Lan approached the ground, he focused his sight on the lake and on the big pit.
Because the moment Mo Lan came down, he discovered that all the black iron stones were under the water.
At this moment, the sounds of footsteps and armor friction were heard. A group of people quickly came to Mo Lan and dispersed. Several people continued to approach and stopped behind Mo Lan, but Mo Lan did not move.
