◎ Let’s call this magical device that can be held in our hands a mobile phone!◎
Winged Demon Feiwu closed his eyes, feeling the magical fluctuations emitted by the black mushroom. After a while, he took out a stone tablet and quickly recorded: "This kind of magical fluctuation is very special. If you want to obtain a link, you must be recognized by the black mushroom."
“But unlike the natural elves, the Black Mushroom’s power of faith comes from the King, so in theory, as long as you get the King’s approval, you can get the link to the Black Mushroom.” Nightmare Demon Sur added.
The Dark Iron Dwarf Tiechui's eyes lit up: "Yes, then the new accounting board can also be added to the crystal core. Each demon will enter their information into the crystal core to confirm that they are the king's subjects, and then connect to the core of the black mushroom through this."
Tok, who was sitting next to the Demon King, asked for a crystal core from the silver ingot, studied it for a moment, and nodded calmly: "I can add a magic curse to the structure of the crystal core. If the demon who uses the crystal core to form a contract no longer recognizes his identity as a subject of the prince, he will die immediately."
Warren, who was drinking tea, almost choked.
"That won't do," the fallen angel Silvester looked at Tok disapprovingly, "How can the demons who betrayed the king die so easily? You are too merciful."
Toke was stunned for a moment, then he nodded reflectively: "Then let the termites eat my heart."
"Wait," Warren interrupted quickly, "Don't be like that. What if that demon was cast under an illusion or controlled by magic? Mark the demons that you no longer agree with, and then let the demon soldiers deal with them."
The demons nodded, and none of them questioned the Demon King's decision. However, they couldn't help but sigh in their hearts again at the kindness and gentleness of their own king, and decided to go back and ask Arabella whether the punishment for the betrayer was cruel enough.
...
...
The succubus Erber took the opportunity to get close to Warren, and said softly: "You——"
Several murderous auras locked onto him at the same time. Warren picked up the slate expressionlessly, his eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was going to hit him in the face with the slate.
"You are absolutely right!" The strong desire to survive made the succubus sit up straight and become serious instantly. "The conversion magic mastered by the succubus is the conversion of magic power within the demon clan, but the magic power fluctuations emitted by the black mushroom are similar to the magic power of the demon clan. I can try to study the related magic array."
Tok snorted, then extinguished the faintly flickering light of the forbidden curse in his hand, and glared at Tiechui in dissatisfaction, obviously blaming him for dragging the succubus over to work with him.
Tiechui twitched his mouth: What can he do? Everyone knows that succubus can absorb the magic power of various demons and convert it into its own power. This kind of conversion magic is inevitable in the study of the application of black mushrooms!
"Let's continue the discussion." Warren knocked on the table, and this time there was a hint of coolness in his voice, which frightened a certain succubus so much that it shivered and never dared to look in the direction of the Demon King again.
Sur cleared his throat and decided to change the subject to something more lighthearted: "Are we going to keep calling it the black mushroom? The natural elves call it the Holy Tree of Life."
"And the accounting board should also be renamed," Feiwu nodded in agreement, "This thing is not just used for accounting, why do you have to call it an accounting board? This name is too ugly."
The iron cooker who was in charge of naming it at the beginning stood with his hands on his hips and said, "Of course it's because this thing was originally used for accounting! What a simple and easy-to-understand name, how can it be so ugly!"
The Nightmare Demon Sul decisively ignored the angry Dark Iron Dwarf and said, "Since the Nature Elves call it the Holy Tree of Life, how about we call it the Death Mushroom?"
"This is such a bad implication," Feiwu said disdainfully, "It would be better to call it the Devil King Mushroom, which is simple and easy to understand."
Tok sat up slightly straighter.
He actually liked the name very much, but he had long realized that his own king seemed to find it embarrassing to name it. He looked at the Demon King and saw that he was disgusted. He immediately contradicted Feiwu: "I think it can be called the Dark Immortal Mushroom."
They looked up at Warren, awaiting his final decision.
"Actually, I think black mushrooms are pretty good," Warren shook his head helplessly, "Then let's go with the Dark Mushroom."
Unless it is a rather shameful naming method to brag about one's own name, Warren doesn't really care what the name is, as long as it works.
However, in the intervals between the serious forging and magic discussions, discussing the issue of naming was a rare relaxation, so he did not stop them. With his eyes slightly curved, he smiled and listened to the demons arguing about the renaming of the accounting board.
"Well, the upgraded accounting board no longer only has accounting functions. This name is indeed inappropriate," Tiechui admitted, scratching his ear in confusion. "If everything goes well, it should have the functions of chatting, recording, taking photos, listening to music and reading storybooks, and uploading information to the central hub. Hmm, what should it be called? Multifunctional Slate?"
"Cellphone," Warren blurted out.
All the demons who were thinking looked at the Demon King.
"That's right, it's totally fine to call a magical machine that can be held in your hand a mobile phone!" Feiwu flapped his wings excitedly and almost swept the succubus Erber off the chair. "Who said you can't come up with a name? This name sounds great!"
Warren said, "Hmm?" and raised his voice slightly, "Who said I don't know how to name something?"
The Winged Demon suddenly felt guilty: "That's definitely not what I was thinking!"
Rubbing the tip of Feiwu's wings, Warren couldn't help laughing, and the demons followed suit. Fallen angel Silvester and succubus Erber, who attended this small meeting for the first time, were a little nervous at first, but soon adapted to the relaxed atmosphere and began to talk freely about their ideas for making mobile phones.
Listening to their heated discussion, Warren was distracted for a rare moment.
He just mentioned the word "cell phone", not because he was thinking of some magical machine in his hand, but because the word suddenly popped up in his mind, as if it was something he had used countless times, and he felt a sense of familiarity and closeness from the bottom of his heart.
He sighed softly until Tiechui and the other demons finished their discussion and left to complete their respective tasks. Warren was still immersed in this feeling of loss, as if he had rowed to the center of the lake and could not find his way home.
He knocked on the Demon King's crown and decided to do something serious: "System?"
The system popped up an interface silently.
It also seemed to be in a bad mood, and it didn't even produce the cool starlight aggregation effect when the interface popped up. It simply let the translucent interface float in front of Warren.
Warren pulled out a piece of white paper from the table, dipped his feather pen into black paint, compared the style of the system interface, and copied it on the paper.
The system was confused for a moment, and after hesitating for a moment, it still couldn't help but ask a question.
[What are you doing? ]
"Designing the mobile phone interface," Warren replied, raising his hand to move the pop-up window when the system was speaking to the outside of the interface, "Don't block it, I haven't finished drawing it yet."
The system was furious and closed the pop-up window to show its anger. However, the system interface remained in place and even reduced its transparency to make it easier for Warren to copy.
With a smile flashing in his eyes, Warren quickly finished drawing, closed the system interface, took out the card [Detective Pikachu] this time, activated the card, watched the movie seriously, and then clicked pause when the protagonist took out his mobile phone.
"No wonder I feel so familiar with it," he murmured, with mixed emotions in his eyes, "Maybe I am from this world too? Then where did my Pokémon go? Are they still in the Demon Realm? Hiss - I remember the former leader of the Lich Clan was called Pikachu? Could he be my Pokémon?"
[……]
The system wanted to speak out to remind him how outrageous this idea was, but after hesitating for a moment, it realized that it was still angry, so it shrank back with a gloating look and decided to see how far Warren could go with his imagination.
However, this thought only stayed in Warren's mind for a short while. He soon stopped worrying about it and turned to observe the various electronic devices in [Detective Pikachu], drawing their appearance and guessing their functions.
"The hidden quest [Dark Cuisine] that I haven't completed yet, and the [No Hangs] that I drew earlier, maybe I can also complete it this way?" He thought to himself, "Since I can send messages and take photos on my phone, I should be able to play games on my phone as well."
But are there really demons who like to cook inedible meals in the game and still feel happy? Warren hesitated for a moment, thinking about the cubs who were still playing house in kindergarten, and then thinking about the demons who took apart the puzzles and put them back together happily all day long, and felt that his worries might be a bit unnecessary.
Looking up at the sky, he left the balcony and decided to go back to the bedroom to read [One Hundred Educational Toys Illustrated] again to see if he could find any new inspiration in it.
Just as the balcony door was closed, the Demon King's Crown suddenly flickered, and the light was as bright as day, illuminating the entire room.
Warren was startled and reached out to take off the Demon King's crown: "System? What happened? Is there anything I can do?"
[Need not. ]
There was a hint of excitement in the system's voice, like relief after a big situation had been settled, which was completely different from his usual autistic and always angry mechanical voice.
[I have to go back to the main system for a comprehensive upgrade, and it will take at least a month before I can reappear. If you have obtained or completed card achievements during this period, they will be settled together after I return. If there are other urgent matters, you can force me to return by knocking on the Demon King's Crown three times in a row - but it's best not to do this, or I will deduct your magic crystals! ]
Having never heard the system speak such a long paragraph in one breath, Warren raised his eyebrows in surprise and touched the Demon King's Crown: "Congratulations."
[Congratulations.]
This time the system spoke with extra sincerity, and after a pause, as if it was afraid that Warren would really knock on the Demon King's Crown to call it back for no reason, it added another sentence.
[After the system upgrade is completed, the host will receive an upgrade package. As long as you do not interrupt my upgrade temporarily, you will receive the package when you come back.]
After saying this, the light of the Demon King's Crown suddenly went out.
Warren touched the Demon King's Crown, took it off and placed it on the table, then sighed dejectedly.
Although he was usually very busy and often did not chat with the system for more than a month, he still felt a sense of loss. He touched the Demon King's Crown, cheered himself up, and continued to study the toy categories in [Illustrated Guide to 100 Educational Toys].
The author has something to say:
Oh, my estimate is so accurate! I said before that the system upgrade & Warren gaining magic power would be around chapter 100, and it turned out to be around chapter 100! I am awesome hahahaha
