Chapter 242 Make money!
After submitting the [Self-Stabilizing Field Regulation Agreement], Benjamin stopped paying attention to it.
Because in the following time, he almost immersed all his energy in the training of the "Black Giant".
Time is always the cheapest thing for a focused wizard.
Ten years later.
The new crystal core that was a fusion of the cores of a level three snow monster and a level four lava giant finally stopped pulsating slowly under the interweaving and tempering of countless energy fields.
When it was completely stabilized, the entire crystal core "emitted" a black light, and the light in the entire laboratory seemed to be swallowed up by it!
As the initial burst of energy dissipated, a perfect "Level 4 Black Giant Core" that was as deep as obsidian but contained blue and red star clusters inside was cultivated!
Benjamin stretched out his hand and gently stroked the crystal core that was emitting terrifying pressure.
He could clearly feel the terrifying power fluctuations emanating from this crystal core, which almost froze and tore apart the space.
A satisfied smile appeared on his face, like an old father looking at his outstanding child.
Next comes the most critical step.
It is only necessary to use this powerful and perfect core as the "mother body" and use the huge incubation pool to formally "hatch" the first "black giant" in the true sense.
Arriving at the Sulfur Plane of Purgatory, Benjamin carefully separated a little rice-sized debris from the black core.
After opening the Universal Eye to check and confirming that the debris was in normal condition, Benjamin solemnly threw it into the incubation pool where the special magma was rolling.
Then, Benjamin came to the monitoring device next to him, read the data that kept appearing on it, and roughly calculated the time required to train a "black giant" this time.
Then, his face, which was originally smiling, suddenly turned dark.
The black giant cultivated by the fourth-level "mother" core is indeed very talented!
According to the deduction of the energy model, this time we can cultivate at least one black giant whose biological level is close to level three!
Moreover, if it is well trained in the future, after it grows up, the biological level of this black giant may even reach the peak of the third-level creature.
But, the downside is...
The energy consumed in cultivating this black giant is truly terrifying!
The energy required to breed the "Black Giant", a new species that combines two extreme powers, in the incubation pool is dozens of times higher than that required to breed an ordinary lava giant.
Furthermore, the level of these "black giants" that are about to be bred is so high...
As a result, the energy that the incubation pool in front of us draws from the elemental plane alone is no longer enough.
“Damn it…”
"Based on the current energy absorption efficiency of the Level 2 incubation pool, if there's no external energy replenishment and it relies solely on the incubation pool's own energy to nurture... it's conservatively estimated that this black giant will take over a hundred years to be born!"
"Also, due to energy supply limitations, only one can be bred at a time!"
It takes more than a hundred years for one to be born!
In the future high-end battlefields, they might just be considered "elite cannon fodder" units... What use would they be?!
By the time the cannon fodder army is built, it will be too late to make a living!
Benjamin scratched his hair irritably, trying hard to think of a solution.
Regarding this energy gap, Jemin subconsciously thought of the seventh-level large element pool he had ordered from his mentor Clark.
According to Clark at the time, the element pool should be completed in a few decades by now.
Speaking of this... although he paid the deposit by selling everything he had.
But the balance of 18 billion military merits for the seventh-level large element pool has not been paid yet!
However, according to Professor Clark's original intention, as his student, I should be able to apply for an internal interest-free loan and repay it slowly...
Although with his earning ability at the time, it might take him two or three thousand years to pay off this debt.
Thinking of this, Jieming subconsciously opened his personal terminal and checked his balance.
The next second, he almost popped his eyes out of fear!
[Account Balance: 30121514586 Low-Level Military Merits]
Thirty billion!
Benjamin rubbed his eyes subconsciously, and even suspected that he was hallucinating because he was too tired from studying.
He counted again carefully starting from the ones digit and finally confirmed that he was not mistaken!
In just ten years!
The [Self-Stabilizing Field Regulation Protocol] technology alone earned him 30 billion in low-level military merit?!
Are you kidding me?!
You know, the total price quoted for the seventh-level large element pool that Benjamin originally ordered was only 20 billion low-level military merits!
In order to pay the mere one-tenth of the 2 billion deposit, Benjamin was forced to run to the plane battlefield and fight a life-and-death battle with a living plane!
After returning, he worked tirelessly to refine more than 500 bottles of "Red Dust Magic Potion", and only then was he able to collect enough for the initial deposit!
So... this seemingly insignificant "assistive technology" from Jieming's perspective actually helped him prepare the entire balance for the Level 7 Large Elemental Pool all at once without him noticing?!
This sudden wealth shocked Benjamin for a moment.
Only after repeatedly confirming the cold numbers on the terminal did Benjamin calm himself down from this huge surprise as quickly as possible.
After calming down, he quickly figured out the key.
The reason why the [Self-Stabilizing Field Regulation Protocol] was able to earn such a terrifying fortune in just ten years was mainly because in the early days, after receiving the official recommendation from the "artificial intelligence" Felix, the major wizarding forces would, out of caution, buy a copy as a sample regardless of whether it was needed or not, and conduct internal experiments and tests.
With the endorsement of "official certification", sales naturally exploded.
In the future, there probably won’t be such an exaggerated speed of making money.
He clicked on the light screen, took a look at the annual income details for the past ten years, and quickly confirmed his idea.
The first year's income accounts for almost 90% of the total income.
He speculated that in the future, when this technology was fully rolled out, the revenue from the [Self-Stabilizing Field Regulation Protocol] should stabilize at around 100 million low-level military merits per year.
After all, only low-level logistics wizards need the [Self-Stabilizing Field Adjustment Protocol], and the number of logistics wizards is already a minority among the total number of wizards.
In addition, the main schools of thought that use this thing are alchemy, potions, and runes in the logistics department, which further reduces the number of wizards who are suitable for purchasing the [Self-Stabilizing Field Regulation Protocol].
Moreover, not all low-level wizards who study these schools will purchase this technology, so this estimated data should be considered relatively reasonable.
However, this income is already very high!
Not to mention low-level wizards like Benjamin who are still struggling at the bottom, even many high-level wizards above level six would probably be jealous if they knew this number!
"call……"
No matter what, this unexpected income has completely alleviated his savings difficulties.
Thinking of this, Jermyn contacted mentor Clark almost without hesitation.
After the communication was connected, Clark's unchanging cold face soon appeared on the screen.
Jieming suppressed his inner excitement and tried to explain the reason for his contact in a calm tone: "Teacher, this is the full balance of the seventh-level large elemental pool I ordered."
After that, Benjamin skillfully operated the terminal and transferred a huge military merit of 18 billion to Clark.
After receiving this huge sum of money, Mr. Clark on the other side of the light curtain was rarely silent for a moment.
Then, he looked Benjamin up and down with his deep eyes and asked the first question that almost made him lose his breath: "You... sold yourself?"
Upon hearing this, Jieming's face turned black and he quickly explained the legal source of his assets.
Then he asked anxiously, "Teacher, when will that level seven large elemental pool be completed?"
Clark listened quietly to Jermyn's explanation, and a hint of relief appeared in the depths of his cold eyes, which he himself did not even notice.
But then he quickly returned to his calm and almost indifferent look.
Clark shook his head after hearing Jermyn's question. "I've been studying the living plane in the Flame Frost Plane all this time, so I haven't really paid much attention to the construction progress of the Level 7 Large Elemental Pool."
Then, Benjamin saw his mentor, who seemed to be contacting someone through other channels.
After a long time, Clark replied to Jermyn:
"The main body of the elemental pool is complete. Next up is the final injection of essence and debugging. Judging by this progress, it should be ready for delivery in less than ten years."
Benjamin was a little surprised. He didn't expect that this thing could be built so quickly.
The reason why the seventh-level large element pool is so expensive is naturally worth the money.
Putting aside other things, this thing is known as a "man-made small elemental plane."
In fact, this is true.
Because the most basic core manufacturing material of this thing is a plane origin that contains the "complete rules of fire elements"!
What is the "complete rules of fire element"?
To put it simply, the amount of information about the laws it contains can theoretically allow a wizard who knows nothing about the element of fire to master the entire "rule of the element of fire" 100% from scratch and reach the threshold of level six!
That is... a full one thousand strands of origin!
The cost of this raw material alone reached a terrifying 10 billion low-level military merits!
What's more, the raw materials needed to build a seventh-level large element pool are not just the origin of the plane.
Clark said he gave him a cost price, and judging by the value of the various raw materials, he was indeed not lying.
After Clark received the balance through the terminal, he looked at Jermyn and suddenly asked, "Is your 'mandatory conscription' time coming soon?"
Benjamin was stunned, and then he remembered the standard contract he signed at the "junction point".
It is an obligation for low-level wizards in the wizard civilization to participate in the plane war, and it is a reward for high-level wizards to participate in the plane war. This statement is not said in vain.
Although the compulsory military service affiliated with the academy has ended for him.
But that doesn't mean these low-level wizards can sit back and relax from now on.
The contract signed when registering at the "junction point" did indeed include a clause regarding compulsory conscription: "Low-level wizards of levels one to three will have up to two hundred years of free rest after participating in each plane war. After this time, they will be forcibly conscripted to participate in the next plane war."
However, for most wizards struggling at the bottom, this treaty has almost no presence.
After all, most low-level wizards have neither the ability nor the financial resources to support themselves in continuous research in the laboratory for two hundred years.
They usually rush to the battlefield again on their own initiative because they have exhausted their points or reached a bottleneck in their research.
In a situation like Benjamin's, Chunchun was just an accident among accidents.
After calculating the time, Benjamin found that he didn't have much "rest" time left.
Although he could barely hold on until he took over the seventh-level large element pool, he probably wouldn't have enough time to do too much modification and debugging before being thrown into an unknown battlefield again.
After thanking Instructor Clark for the reminder, and watching the other party close the communication, Benjamin began to seriously consider the next action plan.
It seems that the in-depth transformation of the seventh-level large elemental pool and the Purgatory Sulfur Plane can only be carried out after the next plane war.
However, if he moves faster, he can test the true combat effectiveness of the "Black Giant" he just developed in the upcoming next plane war!
Thinking of this, Benjamin no longer hesitated, opened the magic network terminal and began to "squander".
Since the seventh-level large element pool cannot be used for the time being, he plans to buy a large number of small element pools as temporary energy plug-ins to provide enough energy for the incubation pool and catalyze the birth of the black giant!
Judging from his "design" for the black giant race, as long as there is enough energy, the hatching time of a "black giant" can be shortened from one hundred years to within half a year.
Of course, the disadvantage of doing this is that it consumes a huge amount of energy.
If converted into a small element pool, it means that a large amount of military merit will be consumed.
But fortunately, Benjamin, who had just made a fortune, was quite rich and could afford this!
As long as we act quickly, we can almost put together a black giant combat team before participating in the plane war.
(This is the only chapter I have today, I'm a bit stuck and need to sort out the plot outline for the next plane.)
