Exploring Technology in a Wizard World-Chapter 632 - 630 Bold Idea

At the Magic Test Field at the bottom of the Heavenly Pit, Richard stood firm.

His arm raised, aiming at the rows of metal walls standing ahead, he muttered to himself, "Let’s start with the weakest, test the first finger."

As he spoke, his index finger stretched out alone, quickly feeding in Free Energy Elements and activating the two Magic Chips on it.

Under the function of the Magic Chips, powerful energy fluctuations emerged, accompanied by a slight buzzing vibration, and the energy was rapidly blasted out.

"Puff puff puff puff puff..."

In the blink of an eye, all the metal walls were penetrated, and the energy kept blasting into the thick soil before it finally dissipated. At the same time, the two Magic Chips on the index finger melted with a "sizzle" sound.

Richard, unconcerned, took a deep breath and said, "Next, experiment the second finger."

As he spoke, the index finger retracted, and the middle finger stretched out, mana was injected, activated.

"Puff puff puff puff puff..."

Again, a horrifying burst of energy pierced through all the standing metal walls, the effect was not a bit less than before.

"Hmm, not bad, both fingers can be used; then, let’s try the third finger."

Richard, continuing his dialogue, extended the ring finger, but instead of attacking immediately as before, he took out the Energy Storage Short Wand from the Space Iron Ring, holding it in his other hand and began to recharge, rapidly absorbing the Free Energy Elements inside the wand.

This was because the "Destructive Gloves" were tremendously powerful but also heavily consuming; just two separate finger attacks had already resulted in slight insufficiency in the Storage Energy from the Magic Origin.

It would be simpler to fully deplete the Magic Origin and then replenish it, but that would also impact the stability of the Magic Origin. The prior frequent use of the One-Hit Kill Wand had already made the Magic Origin unstable, and it hadn’t fully recovered after some time of repair. Richard didn’t want to truly destroy the Magic Origin and had to be extra careful.

Holding the short wand like this for a while until the recharge was complete, Richard refocused his gaze on the distant metal walls.

With a thought, the Magic Chip on the ring finger activated and attacked, followed by the other two Magic Chips on the thumbs and pinkies, activated and attacked in sequence.

Moments later, all five fingers had individually attacked, all experiments succeed without fail, and the results pleased Richard greatly.

Holding the Energy Storage Magic Wand, recharging again, Richard replaced the new Magic Chips on the Alloy Gloves, preparing for further testing.

"This time, test the combined attack of two fingers."

Richard spoke, raising his hand and simultaneously activating the four Magic Chips on both the index finger and middle finger.

Free Energy Elements flowed out from the Magic Origin into the Magic Chips, initiating operation and amplification, but then suddenly became uncontrollable.

Uncontrolled!

At that moment, Richard clearly perceived a more potent energy burst out. Soon after, with a "sizzle," blue smoke rose, and the Magic Chips on both fingers instantly melted, along with melting the nearby connecting Magic Runes, destroying the entire glove. The energy that was meant to burst out quickly died off, disappearing into nothingness.

This!

Richard frowned, comparing this attempt to the previous ones. Indeed, there was progress; each finger could be used independently, and the combined use of two fingers almost succeeded. However, there was still a considerable gap from complete success.

He glanced at the "Destructive Gloves" on his right hand, slowly took them off, and Richard talked to himself, "There’s still a problem. But I’ve made improvements. Where did the issue arise this time?"

After much contemplation without direction, Richard looked at the damaged "Destructive Gloves," his gaze slightly sharp: "I don’t believe it! The individual fingers work fine, showing no flaws in the structure. If use together fails, then it must be some other detail that’s incorrect. In that case, I have to find and solve the issue using the brute force method!"

...

Afterward, Richard plunged back into his busy schedule, tirelessly day and night.

One after another, new "Destructive Gloves" were created: heavy, light, silver, golden, for the left hand, for the right hand...

Magic Chips also abandoned the most primitive, flawed silicon, trying new materials to increase durability and avoid having to replace them after every test.

The connecting Magic Runes between the Magic Chips were frequently adjusted, creating numerous versions: complex, simple, more complex than complex, simpler than simple, and those between complex and simple...

...

Days later.

At the Magic Test Field, Richard stood expressionlessly, one hand holding the Energy Storage Short Wand, continuously recharging, the other hand wearing the latest "Destructive Gloves," aiming at the metal walls that had just been repaired.

Free Energy Elements were injected, activated, attacked.

"Puff puff puff..."

The metal walls were penetrated, and the attack was successful.

Activated again, attacked.

"Puff puff puff..."

The attack was successful.

The third time, activated, attacked...

The fourth time...

Five consecutive attacks, all successful.

Richard showed little joy; after a brief pause, the sixth attack followed.

He raised his hand mechanically, injecting Free Energy Elements, activating, attacking.

"Sizzle!"

A slight sound emerged, the chip melted, the glove damaged.

Attack failed.

"Snap!"

Throwing away the damaged glove, Richard furrowed his brow and quickly noted down the information: "Test item eleven, using the third version design, five fingers attacking separately succeeded, index and ring finger combined attack failed."

After recording, his expression remained unchanged, he replaced it with another new glove and tested again.

"Puff puff puff..."

The attack was successful.

"Sizzle!"

The attack failed.

"Test item twelve, using the fourth version design..."

"Test item thirteen, using the fifth version..."

"Test item fourteen..."

One after another...

After an indeterminate amount of time, Richard, holding the last golden "Destructive Gloves," attacked the deeply scarred metal walls. After a series of tests, recorded again.

"Test item forty-two, using the thirty-fourth version design video, five fingers’ separate attacks succeeded, middle finger and index finger combined attack succeeded, middle finger and ring finger combined attack succeeded... middle finger, index finger, ring finger combined attack succeeded. But, middle finger, index finger, thumb combined attack failed!"
