"Woo~~~"

The latest improved version of the electric carriage moves calmly along the mountain road.

This carriage is very similar to the cars on Earth, using an offset rudder, pneumatic wheels and spring suspension. There are four seats in the car, two in the front and two in the back.

The driver was of course the battle master Alia, the co-driver was a young female intelligence assistant who was born as a forest elf from the main island, and in the back seat sat Rosen and his captive Queen Kaa.

When I just came out of the secret aircraft research institute, there was only one electric carriage running on the mountain road.

When the car merged into a wider avenue from the fork in the road, the road became busy and we would occasionally see trucks coming and going.

These trucks are huge, with a chimney emitting blue smoke next to the front cabin and a huge trailer loaded with cargo at the back.

Compared with the electric carriage that Lawson rode, the truck was not very fast, with a speed of only more than 30 kilometers per hour. The absolute speed was not much faster than that of a real horse-drawn carriage, but the cargo capacity was greatly increased, generally more than 10 tons.

In the back seat, Queen Kao had a tense face and said nothing. Her upper body sat upright without moving, and she didn't even move her eyes.

Rosen lazily lay on the soft and thick suede recliner, his hands clasped behind his head and his legs crossed. "Alia, drive steadily. We have a distinguished guest here today."

Alia reluctantly stepped on the ignition switch lightly: "Yes, sir."

Stonard changed his address and continued to call him "Master". When she found out, she immediately changed her address as well, because she also felt it was not comfortable to call him "Lord".

Rosen looked at Queen Kaa who was sitting beside him and said, "Madam, don't be so tense. I feel so tired for you."

He planned to adopt a conciliatory strategy towards the queen, tightening inside and loosening outside, so as not to arouse too strong a confrontational mentality.

Queen Kao did feel a little sore in her back and looked at Rosen. Finally, she followed his example and leaned back in the thick leather chair.

After lying in silence for a while, she suddenly said, "This is not the Blackstone Steam Carriage."

There are already many Blackrock steam carriages in Silvermoon City, but they are not as stable or quiet when running, and the smell is much stronger than this carriage, and they often emit billowing black smoke.

Rosen took out nuts from a snack box nearby and handed them to Queen Kaa, who shook her head to refuse. He then grabbed a handful of nuts and put them in the snack box on the front seat, because Arya and the female assistant were both foodies.

"It's probably because of the difference in the magic route. Kao has a lot of people and is very concerned about cost, and doesn't care much about the comfort of use."

"On the contrary, our island has higher requirements for the user experience of magic creations."

The queen still shook her head: "No, you have avoided the point. There should be a very sophisticated power component in your Black Stone Cart."

This is naturally a structure related to lightning, such as motors, batteries, etc.

But this is the island’s most core secret, and Rosen doesn’t want to leak it before he has an absolute technological advantage.

He laughed and turned to look at the sky. It was already getting dark and it would be dinner time soon.

So he skipped the topic and said, "Madam, my castle is rather simple, please forgive me."

After a pause, he continued, "During dinner, please explain the situation of the Mind Meteorite to me."

The queen was very familiar with this technique of changing the subject, and she also talked to herself.

"There is a huge delay in your signal line. Although your puppet looks realistic, it has not faked the aura of a soul. It's fine for a short time, but if it lasts for a long time, my control over the political situation will be greatly reduced!"

Once the queen's control over the khal declines, her hostage effectiveness will weaken. If her position is replaced, she will become a discarded pawn, or even be used as an excuse for the khal to sanction the Sturgeon Island.

Rosen certainly knew this: "I will establish a communication connection without delay within a month, and at the same time create a more realistic magic puppet."

His current knowledge of magic is a big step forward compared to when he created Akali.

Thanks to the Frost Messenger Lafeng, his understanding of the human body structure in the other world is far better than before.

This understanding did not come from the immature secret method of breaking through the ring wall, but because when he sneaked back to blow up the ship, he also went to the Banshee Laboratory and wrote down all the relevant human research data.

Admittedly, the origin of this data is extremely evil, but it is also very valuable.

In short, Rosen is now able to create a magic puppet that can completely conceal the perception of a fourth-ring magic master.

The queen didn't believe it: "The distance between the two places is more than 3,000 kilometers. How could there be no delay in communication?"

Rosen laughed: "Strictly speaking, there is a delay, but it is no more than 0.2 seconds."

"I don't believe it!"

"We'll see."

At this time, the carriage drove into the Crescent City area.

The urban area has expanded a lot, and the original city walls have become completely useless, especially on the west side of Crescent City, where the newly built buildings are almost connected to the White Sturgeon Harbor.

As night fell, many buildings lit up with rune lightning lamps. The tempered clay buildings that looked square during the day became extremely gorgeous under the lights at night.

The queen watched all this through the car window, with a hint of surprise in her eyes. She felt it carefully: "The Baron seems to have done a very deep study on the power of lightning."

She had never seen such a gorgeous night view in any other city in Witt Continent.

Putting aside the various prejudices caused by personal stance, the queen admired Rosen very much in terms of magic alone.

She felt that this person should be one of the most accomplished mages in the magical world in the Natural Alliance.

If used well, it can become a strategic wizard capable of changing the fate of a country.

It was because of this that she took the risk to come and capture him, but unfortunately she failed and got herself involved.

Rosen could naturally sense the queen's emotions, smiled, and whispered in his heart.

"Thank you for your compliment, Your Majesty. But there is no need to be too disappointed. I will use the power of the khal very carefully."

"I hope so."

At this time, the car drove into the castle and stopped in front of the lord's long house which was full of retro style.

It was dinner time, and Rosen had already informed the kitchen that there would be a distinguished guest, so the dinner would be more sumptuous than usual. In addition to the usual seven-course dinner, three more dishes were added.

Soon, Rosen brought the queen to the dining room. Four people were already sitting at the table, namely the Rosen family and mentor Anna.

Rosen was not worried that the queen would harm her family because everyone wore a powerful ice amulet and the queen did not have any magical weapon on her.

This arrangement also worked. The queen's uneasy mood relaxed a lot, and her fear of Rosen also dissipated a lot.

The impression of him also changed from a cold-blooded baron to a normal person with flesh and blood.

After they sat down, Rosen began to introduce them: "This is Madam Nana, a distinguished guest on the island. If nothing unexpected happens, she will stay on the island for a long time."

The four girls were all puzzled and didn't understand why Rosen said that.

But Mrs. Saxony and Evelyn were simply surprised, while the two magic masters, Selena and Anna, were still shocked.

Not only because the queen has a very elegant demeanor that is different from ordinary people, but also because of her incomparable magical powers.

Selena asked hurriedly, "What is the origin of this lady?"

After saying this, he felt rude: "Mrs. Nana, I am presumptuous. I apologize to you."

The queen stared at Serena's bulging belly and was also surprised: "I don't understand, why is it so fast?"

According to the information she had received, the Baron and Princess Chenxi had been together for less than half a year. How come they had a child so soon?

Selena smiled and said, "It's the blessing of Mother Nature."

Rosen also laughed: "The food is getting cold, eat first, and then we can talk after we finish eating."

In that case, everyone stopped talking and just ate and drank.

After the meal, three wizards, Rosen, Selena, and Anna, as well as Queen Kao came to the original magic center in the backyard of the castle.

After the construction of the spacious new magic center, this place naturally became empty, but it was not idle. It has now become Rosen's personal magic laboratory.

In the middle of the basement is the captured Mind Meteorite.

Here, Rosen first activated a breathless crystal wall, and then formally introduced: "This is the queen of Kao, full name."

"Nana Silger. I was born a commoner and have no last name, so I took my husband's last name."

The queen's tone was calm, but it shocked the two women.

I just couldn't understand why Kao's queen came to the White Sturgeon Island.

Rosen didn't want to go into detail about the process, so as not to arouse hostility between the two women.

"This is the Mind Meteorite, a supreme treasure sent by His Majesty. Its function is to convert lightning power into zero-ring mind power."

This made Queen Kao smile bitterly, and also attracted the attention of the two women.

Because this is the transformation of cheap energy into precious energy, even if there are only zero rings, it is still precious energy.

Rosen looked at the queen: "Your Majesty, can you explain how to use this thing?"

The queen pointed to the circular platform below the meteorite and said, "This is a lightning lattice array with a very large capacity. It is not very strong, with only three rings, but it can produce a full 300 portions of standard master mana."

Rosen understood immediately: "When you need to use it, pour all the power of lightning into the meteorite, and it will be transformed into a huge amount of spiritual power."

"Yes, this is also the upper limit of the transformation of this meteorite. Any more will be useless. Of course, this upper limit is already very high."

“It’s really amazingly high!”

Standard Master Mana is a newly proposed measurement standard that has become popular in the continent of Witt, but is not yet commonly used in Weilan.

It represents the total amount of mana of a fourth-ring magic master named Clark when he just entered the fourth ring.

This Clark has another identity, he is the former director of Kao's Black Rose Magic Department.

He created a method to accurately measure the total amount of magic.

The total amount of his magic skills is about half of that of the top magic masters.

Using this standard, Selena, who has just entered the fourth ring, has about 1.8 standard master mana, while Anna has 1.7, which is considered excellent.

Selena asked curiously, "What is the conversion efficiency?"

The queen laughed and said, "Princess, your question is difficult to answer because there is currently no comparison target for the transformation of lowly energy into noble energy."

"But according to our measurement method, it's 50 percent."

After a pause, she explained in detail: "This is compared to the direct exchange of mana for spiritual power."

"One part of mana can convert into one part of spiritual power, but after going through this meteorite, only 0.5 is left."

Very clear explanation.

In other words, one burst is equivalent to one hundred and fifty standard magic masters using all their magic power to release the zero-ring sleeping spell together.

Rosen suddenly realized: "No wonder the effect is so amazing, but it's difficult to locate a single target, right?"

The queen nodded, "The force is too great, and it can only locate a vague area. The more targets there are in the area, the more dispersed the attack force will be."

These words made Rosen secretly feel lucky.

Fortunately, he called over three high-level mages and hundreds of people from the Research Bureau to share the burden with him. If all the energy had been poured on one person, he would have fainted without a sound.

Rosen came to the meteorite again and reached out to touch the strange blue stone: "Can it be cracked and used?"

"I don't know, because it is very tough, and no one dares to split it easily for fear of damaging it."

Such a big treasure really cannot be messed with easily.

But without research, it will always be limited to this capability; it is very powerful, but it will never be able to be improved.

After careful observation, Rosen concluded: "It should be possible to separate it, and it will be effective after separation. Because there are traces of burning and fragmentation on the meteorite."

As he said this, he tried to separate a piece using the Lightning Disintegration Technique.

"Buzz~~"

The blue stone was successfully separated into a small fist-sized piece, and at the same time, a circle of scattered mental power was spread out, making the four people around feel a little panicked.

The three women subconsciously took a step back, but Rosen took a step forward, his face full of interest.

"Good stuff~ Really good stuff, as long as it's lightning power, it can be naturally transformed into spiritual power!"

"Moreover, the transformed mental power still retains the information on the lightning power!"

The latter point was very useful and gave Rosen several application ideas.

Then use Transfiguration Alchemy to analyze its composition and quickly come to a conclusion.

“The ingredients are not complicated, but they are very rare.”

It is a mixture of oxides of various rare earth elements and metals, some of which are similar to superconducting oxides in the previous life.

The good news is, it can be synthesized!

But the bad news is that the element is extremely rare, and although the related raw materials can be found, they are extremely expensive.

If you want to synthesize it in large quantities, you must first find the corresponding rare earth ore.

But since it can be synthesized, large-scale application is only a matter of time.

He laughed loudly: "Your Majesty Nana, you came at the perfect time~~~Ahahaha~~"

Originally, he was thinking about what kind of weapons to install on the aircraft so as to achieve the greatest deterrence while causing the least damage.

Now, the queen directly sent him the best civil war weapon, or should I say, the most merciful weapon! As for the specific conversion principle, Rosen was also very curious, because only by understanding the principle can we go further.

Unfortunately, I don’t have time to study it for the time being.

But it doesn’t matter, because there is a genius wizard named Cavendish on the island who specializes in transforming lowly energy into high-end energy.

If you give him this thing, he will faint with joy.
