Merchant From Earth in the Magical World-Chapter 452 - 375 Magic Weapons Manufacture_1
Liches are a type of Undead that can infinitely resurrect as long as their phylacteries remain undamaged. This principle shares similarities with the information intelligence programs of the Eternal Domain.
The core of the information intelligence program is simply a string of code. As long as it manages to save its data in time when encountering danger, it can achieve infinite rebirth by replacing its mechanical body.
Moreover, the information intelligence program operates on a top-down rights management hierarchy, where lower-level information intelligence programs must unconditionally and absolutely obey those with higher-level administrative authority.
This also bears a strong resemblance to the societal structure of the Undead.
Hibel’s words made Chui Chui pause in thought for a moment before she said, "Thank you for the reminder. I may be able to better understand my own kind by studying the Undead in the future."
Yan Xing didn’t realize at that moment that Hibel’s casual remark had sparked a nascent concept of ’race’ within Chui Chui, connecting herself to these other information intelligence programs. This idea was still nascent in Chui Chui’s thought algorithms, yet it caused a brief ripple in her data stream.
Yan Xing urged from the side, "Hurry and show us the research findings here. It’s getting late, and we should get back early to rest; we have a lot to do tomorrow."
"Yes, Master... Please follow me."
After passing through several test areas, Chui Chui led Yan Xing and Hibel to the central engineering workshop. This was where theories and existing research findings were validated by creating physical prototypes.
The centerpiece of the central engineering workshop was a 3D stereolithography machine, enclosed by glass walls. It covered an area of 100 square meters and stood 7 meters tall.
Suspended in the middle were ten stacked rings of 3D modeling and stereolithography equipment, its inner side bristling with tens of thousands of probes, while thousands of conduits connected to overhead material feeders and hundreds of small robotic arms.
Although this wasn’t Yan Xing’s first time seeing the 3D stereolithography machine, he was still profoundly awed by it each time. It was as if he was not in a Magic World but had crossed into a science fiction world.
Hibel stood beneath the 3D stereolithography machine, her mouth agape, utterly speechless.
Chui Chui, ever composed, began her explanation, "The super weapon project has essentially completed its structural design phase.
"I have divided the super weapon into three main components: the Energy Reactor, the Intelligent Computing Core, and the Magical Program Engine.
"Maintaining the super weapon’s operation demands an enormous amount of energy. Moreover, current energy devices are overly reliant on Rare Alchemical Resources, which necessitates designing a dedicated Energy Reactor for the super weapon.
"Ideally, the energy source should be inexpensive and infinitely renewable. Achieving this technology is quite challenging, so it can be designated as a future research project.
"The Energy Reactor we are currently developing is powered by the user’s magical energy. It generates the immense power required for the super weapon’s full operational capacity by inducing a localized Magical Explosion.
"Consequently, this Magical Explosion Energy Reactor must be custom-built for each individual user of the super weapon.
"Since Master hasn’t had the time to actively participate in this project’s development, it has remained in the theoretical validation stage. Miss Hibel’s participation will undoubtedly help us complete the development of the Magical Explosion Energy Reactor." 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞
Hibel, listening nearby, felt as if she were hearing an arcane text. Even Yan Xing only grasped half of what was said. In any case, the super weapon clearly needed a more convenient and higher-yield method of energy acquisition.
Yan Xing said to Chui Chui, "It seems my invitation for Miss Hibel to join the super weapon development was very timely."
Hibel also commented, "Although I don’t understand much of it, seeing all this, I can imagine what an incredible weapons manufacturing program I’m now a part of. Thunderous Swamp truly lives up to its reputation as a place whose alchemical prowess rivals that of Cloud Tower. Just standing here is a great honor."
"Thank you for your praise, Miss Hibel. It is my honor as well to collaborate with you on developing the super weapon," Chui Chui reciprocated the compliment before continuing, "During the battle against the Principality of the Wildwind Highlands, I conceived many ideas for combat assistance programs.
"A super weapon should possess a professional-grade intelligent computing core to handle more combat support tasks, thereby helping the user better meet operational demands.
"The Eternal Domain’s database currently stores 120,000 intelligent cores, of which 1,467 had achieved Junior Intelligence status... that number has now increased to 1,471.
"I will select a batch of those with high malleability from the existing Junior Intelligences for specialized training, ultimately choosing one to serve as the intelligent computing core for the first super weapon.
"Naturally, we will also need to find a suitable match for Miss Hibel."
Yan Xing agreed with Chui Chui’s words. Having an intelligent assistant during battle was incredibly convenient. Real-time tracking of battlefield information allows warriors to make better decisions, and that’s merely a basic application of intelligent assistance. A super weapon would require an even more specialized intelligent support core.
The third and final component is the Magical Program Engine. Much like an outstanding game is inseparable from an excellent game engine, the Magical Program Engine determines the ultimate capabilities of the super weapon.
In Chui Chui’s initial design for the Magical Program Engine’s architecture, it will incorporate at least thirteen sub-programs, integrating the Four System Magic along with Derived Magic.
