Magic Industrial Age

As life became more stable, time seemed to accelerate.

In the blink of an eye, June passed, July vanished, and August included a summer vacation, but even that couldn't stop time from flying by.

That's right, the magic academy's summer vacation was only a month long, much shorter than before, and the weather wasn't too hot.

In September, the Filant Magic Academy reopened, and Roy was already a second-year student.

With his strength, wealth, achievements, status, and position, he no longer needed a Filant Magic Academy graduate certificate to decorate his resume.

However, Roy had no intention of dropping out.

He liked the atmosphere of the Filant Magic Academy. Compared to the scheming and intrigue among those old foxes, the young people here were full of vitality.

Here, he could feel peace of mind and enter a state of cultivation more easily.

Of course, he also became a scenic attraction at the Filant Magic Academy.

Every morning when he practiced his sword, he attracted the attention of countless people.

From time to time, the layers of Mach rings that rippled out were like controlling a tornado, shocking countless eyes.

This wasn't intentional on Roy's part. At his level, sometimes even a casual swing could cause anomalies.

In addition, Roy began to attend classes seriously. You heard that right, he started listening to lectures.

Although he still selectively picked courses, this time, Roy didn't rely on Deep Blue, but used his own learning ability to try to understand the content of magic and machinery courses.

From the four elemental planes of earth, fire, wind, and water, to the extraction function of the magic pool, from the consumption of wasteland stones to the amount of magic energy provided, from the structure of the universal engine to the method of engraving magic patterns on lapis lazuli…

In the second-year courses, after choosing magic machinery, you could access a lot of substantive content.

Although it's impossible to train you into a mechanical master, after completing the course, you would definitely be a qualified engineer.

Roy was also clear that what he understood was truly understood. In the future, he couldn't rely entirely on others for magic machinery.

So, he calmed down and began to understand and learn the content as a matter of course.

It must be said that he really gained something.

For example, in the magic machinery field, the magic pool actually couldn't drive the machinery directly, but instead relied on the universal engine.

Inside this universal engine, there was a design similar to an internal combustion engine, where the imbalance of the four elements within the magic energy caused energy expansion.

Then, the collision and contraction of energy allowed the universal engine to operate, converting magic energy into kinetic energy, thereby driving various machines.

This was the basic theory!

However, almost all magic machines had magic patterns distributed on them.

That was equivalent to a control system, requiring magic resonance to guide usage.

This set of theories was so perfectly self-consistent. Obviously, even magic had its own logical principles.

Furthermore, lapis lazuli was also worth discussing in detail.

Magic patterns needed a carrier, and there were many carriers for magic energy. However, when it came down to it, lapis lazuli was durable, had good magic energy conductivity, was abundant, and was the cheapest.

Then, this material became the most commonly used mechanical material, serving as the carrier for magic patterns.

If Roy had to understand it, this stuff was like electrical wiring, connecting machinery to machinery, thereby achieving various functions.

As he delved deeper into his studies, Roy found that he could truly immerse himself in it and became more and more interested.

It's worth mentioning that during this period, Mila Greenman also made a choice.

After wandering around the magic academy, this woman didn't choose any courses, but instead found an extremely unpopular statistics subject.

The magic academy was, after all, a university that cultivated various talents for society. Although it mainly focused on magic machinery, it wasn't limited to just magic machinery.

For example, the Ancient Spirit Mage Tower also recruited traditional mages. Various types of spells, magic potions, and traditional alchemy were all passed down.

There were also courses in law, medicine, agriculture, economics, and trade.

After all, society was diverse and needed many types of talents, not just mages.

As for statistics, in practice, it could be seen as an accounting major, calculating accounts, recording income and expenses, and paying taxes.

In addition, she also followed Butler Hoover to learn etiquette, manage shops and farms, and host banquets.

She also followed Maruna to learn how to do business, how to manage factories, how to recruit staff, and how to handle trivial matters.

For her magic power, which could be described as Tier 1 LV5, she only chose a magic energy gun for self-defense.

Besides that, there was nothing else.

Roy was very satisfied with her choice because she knew what she needed and, more importantly, what Roy needed.

It must be said that Roy increasingly felt that this woman was extraordinary and had the capital to succeed.

The only drawback was that Douglas and Lilia's research hadn't made any substantial progress. On the contrary, a lot of raw materials were wasted.

However, the magic energy hammer forging machine sold better and better, with more and more orders and faster and faster returns, so these experimental losses didn't matter.

Moreover, the Lightning Magic Machinery Factory recruited ten more mage apprentices to expand the factory's production scale.

And Roy's strength also made considerable progress with the accumulation of time and his persistent cultivation.

This belonged to his growth!

…

New God Calendar, October 3, 311.

Auckland City, outside the city,

Mills Target Range.

Bang, bang, bang, bang!

Gunshots rang out continuously, and puffs of smoke exploded. Roy's figure leaped around the field, sometimes like a hurricane, sweeping past; at other times, like a falling leaf, drifting with the wind.

Agile, swift, and able to balance elegance and grace, with occasional unexpected changes in posture, it could be described as bizarre.

And in his hands, two guns fired left and right, spitting fire, alternating magazines, as if without end.

In the air, birds startled and flew, mixed with flying discs, arrows, knives, guns, and various debris.

Roy's eyes were bright, as if emitting light, and his pupils constantly changed, magnifying, shrinking, rotating, locking…

Although not as good as Gary Mills, who could transform into an eagle eye, the one Roy cultivated was also a version optimized several times by Deep Blue, with even greater sensitivity.

Those incoming items were constantly locked in his vision, and eventually, shot after shot, they were all destroyed.

But those harmless debris were all let go. This marksmanship was already completely different from the past!

And that Eagle Eye Technique, as expected of the core skill of the Eagle Eye school, after successful cultivation, the bonus to marksmanship was really too great.

It could be said that with the Eagle Eye Technique, a magic gunslinger was truly a magic gunslinger. Otherwise, they could only be said to know how to shoot a gun.

After doing all this, Roy's posture didn't stop, and he pulled out the Dawn Rapier again.

The difference was that this time he held the sword in his left hand, and with a slight tremor, the sword vibrated.

In the subtle hum, circles of Mach rings moved up the sword body, like white air waves wrapped in a golden light.

Raising his hand, he unleashed a sword, and a slashing aura swept out, cutting through the air and sweeping across dozens of meters before dissipating.

Wherever it passed, the ground plowed out a deep mark.

This sword was something Roy could do a long time ago, but that was with his right hand.

And now, he was holding the sword in his left hand!

Immediately afterward, Roy demonstrated swift thrusts, V-shaped instant kills, and other sword techniques, and his feel became more and more heated.

Until the end, he raised his hand and threw it, and Dawn turned into a golden light, leaving his hand and directly nailing it to a big tree more than ten meters away.

The tree, which needed two people to hug, was pierced by the rapier, and the tip of the sword protruded, directly sinking into it.

Looking closely, the holes on it weren't just one or two. A good tree had long been ravaged beyond recognition.

After doing all this, Roy jumped up again, and when he landed, his hands were pressed on a dark cannon barrel.

Magic power was activated, magic patterns lit up, and finally spread to where the magic crystal was located.

Roy's eyes were even brighter, staring intently at the mound a hundred meters away, evaluating wind speed, humidity, and fine-tuning the angle in his mind…

Boom!

With a loud noise, this magic energy cannon trembled violently, spitting out fire and pushing the cannonball out.

A hundred meters away, an explosion came, setting off smoke and shockwaves, spreading outward.

However, this shot was slightly off.

The mound was still there, but nearby, there was a big pit.

So, Roy reloaded, adjusted, activated magic power, and fired…

Boom!

This time, the mound was blown away!

But Roy wasn't satisfied, but continued to load cannonballs, fine-tune the angle, and fire.

He fired four rounds in a row, until the mound four hundred meters away, he fired three shots before destroying the mound, Roy finally stopped.

A series of operations was definitely fast and urgent, the movements were skilled, there was almost no chance to breathe, but Roy still completed it smoothly.

Please note that this was all his own merit, without the help of Deep Blue's abilities.

If he turned on the scanning module, locked on the target, and supplemented it with the data analysis module to calculate the angle of the cannon, it would definitely be more accurate and the power would be more considerable!

However, at this stage, there was really no enemy worthy of him doing this.

At this moment, Roy was a bit complacent. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, looked at Gary Mills next to him, and asked, "Teacher, how was my performance this time?"

The corners of Gary's mouth couldn't help but curl up, but he still said, "So-so, considered an entry, I guess."

"In the future, you still have to practice more!"

"Got it!"

Roy responded with a sound, but didn't take his words to heart at all, but looked at his attribute bar with satisfaction.

Others could deceive him, but only the attribute panel was the most honest.
