Mage Adam Chapter 93: The feasibility of an industrial revolution in the wizarding world?
"What kind of magic is this?" Although he knew that Adam couldn't kill them, the apprentice assistant still couldn't control his panic, especially after the magic power was attached to the metal particles in the sky.
Adam did not answer their questions, but dissipated the control of the metal particles, and instead agglomerated some of them into a metal cluster. At the same time, the blue-white electric current in front of him converged to simulate a gun barrel. With the continuous work of the magic power and Adam's control, the metal mass was shot from the barrel at a high speed.
Adam is simulating the electromagnetic gun, but it is not successful. Due to the incomplete theory, Adam's control of the magnetic field and various forces is still very rough. The metal cluster only shoots a few dozen meters and decomposes in the sky. In terms of power, although it is more powerful than Lightning strikes are strong, but the preparation time required is too long, and the gains outweigh the losses.
Elliott and the others were blown away by the wind pressure generated by the pseudo electromagnetic cannon. They silently watched the white cyclone formed by the cannonball across the sky in horror. They could not imagine that if they were hit by such magic , how tragic the consequences will be.
Adam stopped experimenting with new knowledge. The meaning of the knowledge he acquired this time is not how powerful his lethality is, but his further control over himself. From then on, the element of electricity will never be in his hands. Not violent out of control.
The academy law enforcement puppets have surrounded Adam. After showing his identification and paying compensation, Adam nodded to several people, turned and walked towards the laboratory.
Leaving the assistants look at each other in dismay for a while and parted.
James and Frank didn't go to enjoy the vacation. They went back to the laboratory together to find Adam who was thinking about something in the office, and collected all the assistants they had collected over the past few months about the psychic meditation practice. The question was left to Adam.
Adam absent-mindedly answered the questions one by one. The two understood that this was Adam's 'multitasking'. After recording the answers, they couldn't help but ask, "Adam, what are you thinking about?"
Adam suddenly fired an electric ball at them, almost penetrating the telekinetic barrier that they maintained on the body surface at all times. They knew that Adam would not do this for no reason, no anger, just curiously watching adam.
"How's the power?"
The two thought for a while. According to the magic power index, the electric ball just now should be around ten o'clock: "Not bad, surpassing most low-level apprentice magic."
"What if mortals could use this level of attack?"
The two were stunned: "How is it possible, this is magic, the body of a mortal cannot withstand the erosion of magic..."
"What if you can do it without magic?"
The two fell silent. They had never thought about such a situation. No matter how powerful mortals and knights were, they were vulnerable to magic, but what would happen if they mastered the power equivalent to magic?
James hesitantly said: "If what you said is true, then...probably it will be somewhat threatening to ordinary apprentices, and it is still like an ant in the face of mages."
Adam nodded, knowing that the two of them were right. The difference between mages and mortals is not the difference between the strong and the weak, but the crushing of the level of life. This difference is difficult to make up for with technology. He did not argue with the two of them. This, but asked again: "If it's like this," Adam used electric current to simulate the image of the firearm, and then erected a test target, and one after another thunder light shot from the muzzle hit the target, and the count continued to increase from ten to It stopped when most apprentice magic could reach the peak, and then faced the doubtful two people and said: "The power continues to increase, but the difficulty of use continues to decrease, no need to know knowledge, no need to build a rune group, just pull the trigger... ...."
"Really? Can a mortal without magic be stronger than an apprentice?"
James and Frank felt uneasy in their hearts, and they vaguely realized that if what Adam said could really be realized, if ordinary people could master the power of the apprentice top without learning meditation, it would be an apprenticeship to the mage. huge impact on status.
Adam is pretty sure that this could happen.
The wizard world is dominated by magic. The convenience and greatness of magic make them naturally ignore the power of industry. Adam can easily create steam engines and various gunpowder weapons now, but the power and usefulness of those things are not at all. Not worth mentioning, the role of the steam engine can be easily done by any magic, the gunpowder weapon can't even hit the knight, and the results of the first industrial revolution on earth are useless.
But the second industrial revolution is different. The progress made by human beings on earth after entering the electrical age is leaps and bounds. If the mortals of the wizard world enter the electrical age, they may not be able to close the gap in high-end force, but they will also greatly fill the gap. Magic technology creates a huge gulf between mortals and mages, increasing the usefulness of mortals.
If Adam can really do it successfully, he will get huge benefits from it.
......
Adam's next subject is Frank~IndoMTL.com~ Frank's economic situation has improved greatly in the past few years, but for some reason, he did not choose to replace it with a more complete and advanced machine Body, still using the original humble version. Although under the action of the powerful medium of mind power, his body no longer has to suffer day and night, but this kind of machine powered by energy stones still has great drawbacks.
The energy in the power stone is similar but lower than the magic power level, but even if it is lower than the magic power, its corrosiveness cannot be tolerated by the carbon-based body.
Apprentices with complete bodies use their mental power to carry magic power, avoiding direct contact between magic power and body in most cases, but Frank can't, his body is exposed to magic power day and night.
Adam said to Frank lying in the observation device: "Do you know that you have a big problem with your body?"
Frank moved his body unnaturally: "The magic power continues to corrode my body. If this continues, I'm probably dying?"
Adam nodded and recalled several images recording his physical condition: "You are committing suicide slowly," Adam pointed to one of the images, which showed that secondary magic was constantly invading body cells on the one hand, and on the other hand It is also enhancing the vitality of cells. If the cells are strong enough, they can maintain balance, but the nature of carbon-based life is too fragile, and cells cannot withstand this kind of pressure. "Your body's regeneration speed has been fundamentally consumed, if you continue to use it Mechanical body, you can't live more than ten years."
Adam then pointed to another picture: "Even now, your organ vitality is not as good as it used to be?"
Frank tapped the instrument, motioned for Adam to let him out, and said blankly, "Yes, but I have no choice."
