Chapter 197 Manufacturing
Soon, they arrived at the underground laboratory of Jia's family.
Jiayi spread out the prepared drawings and hung them on the wall. This was not the first time they made sonar detectors, and they were no longer considered newbies. When their store opened, they made a batch of sonar detectors for sale. But there was no time later and no further production.
Several of them divided the work and cooperated. According to his modular thinking, Jiayi divided the entire sonar detector into several modules. He had thought of treating rune magic arrays like programming and treating each rune magic array as a program. Unfortunately, it failed in the end. Rune is equivalent to the underlying machine language. For Jiayi, it is really unsuccessful.
However, Jiayi is not completely unreaped. Modulation is one of the gains. Although modularity will make the rune array less concise, it is easier to understand. Just like the difference between classical Chinese and vernacular Chinese, the modular rune array adds many descriptive runes, pays more attention to logic, and requires each module to be able to run separately, which is a complete function.
This will inevitably lead to the repetition of many runes. The original rune array is particularly streamlined in order to simplify runes and reduce the size. Many implemented abilities use a magic array loop. Although this is simple, it has higher requirements for production and higher requirements for learning.
Moreover, modularization can split the rune array, first make each module, and then combine it to achieve complete functions. To a certain extent, this can also reduce the difficulty of making rune arrays.
However, Jiayi is not that powerful yet. Now he can only split and modularly construct the apprentice-level magic array, as well as a limited number of mage-level magic arrays, such as sonar detection magic arrays, and greasy spool magic arrays.
Jiayi made several pieces of sonar detection arrays. Yanxi and Mado made the main part, involving energy storage and release. Machi and Jade made the display part, displaying the received sound detection results into images. Jiayi and Chester made the emitter and reception parts of sonar. The entire array was divided into three parts, and each module was related to each other but was independent of each other.
In order to speed up the production progress, Yanxi moved the magic furnace he bought from Madou's house. His furnace was sold ready-made and more portable. Unlike Jiayi's, the customized one was completely fixed in a corner of the laboratory and you can't move it at all.
The two magic furnaces opened at the same time, melting the alloy mixed in proportion. Although it was already the month of spring (February), the climate was still very cold. However, under the heat of the two magic furnaces, Jiayi and the others were sweating profusely. The entire laboratory was not airtight enough, and it seemed like they had turned into a big steamer.
If you don't want to lose money, then the metal formula for making the substrate of the rune array is very important. Unless the other materials have any special advantages, most rune arrays use metal as the substrate. Because the metal is easy to smel and the formula can be easily changed. According to the actual requirements of the array, a more suitable substrate can be made to reduce costs.
However, most of the items of the elves use wood as the base of the magic array, because the elves are good at cultivating magic wood, and the wood can still be regenerated as long as it is not cut down. Although humans also have the technology to cultivate magic wood, they cannot achieve the ideal effect of the branches. If you want to use it, you must use the long-lasting trunk that grows, which will lose the regeneration characteristics.
After refining the base of a rune board, Maggie couldn't stand it anymore: "You guys go ahead, I'll get some air outside, it's so stuffy inside."
Although she hung a frost cold shield on her body, she felt even more uncomfortable. On the one hand, it was a little cold and hot, which was like a two-way ice and fire.
"Persistent for a while." Jiayi put down a piece of the made diaphragm and looked up and sweated. "It's getting late, so we'll go back after a while. If you can't stand it, classify these materials first. It should be better if you're far away from the furnace."
Jiayi felt that he had miscalculated, but he thought it would be more convenient to keep the furnace in the basement. He did not expect that the furnace would release such a great amount of heat and become so stuffy after being stopped by the basement, which was completely incomparable to the ground.
"After the sonar detector is finished, you must re-use the ventilation system and guide all the heat outside." Jiayi himself couldn't stand it anymore.
I didn't notice it, because I didn't open the furnace for such a long time at once, so although I felt a little hot, it would be fine after a while.
When Maqi heard Jiayi say this, he immediately left the furnace and began to count the rune bases that everyone made. Now he is just melting out the materials, and then trimming the shape and most importantly portraying the rune. Finally, assemble the produced modules to make a complete sonar detector.
Yanxi saw Magg counting all the smelted materials and asked, "How much have we made now?"
"20 sets, Jiayi's diaphragm has more, and there are thirty sets, and the speed is really fast." Maggie said.
"Then let's do it now. There are so many that will be enough for a while. Although our diaphragm is quite large, it still needs to be forged, and there is still some work."
These diaphragms are used to generate sound and receive sound. Although the effect can be achieved simply by using magic arrays, adding diaphragms can achieve better results. Jiayi’s own sonar detector uses the tympanic membrane of the Big Ear Demon Bat as a diaphragm, so the effect is the best. Jiayi’s smelting diaphragm simulates the effect of the tympanic membrane of the Big Ear Demon Bat.
However, the diaphragm produced simply is not rigid enough and must be forged to meet the requirements of use.
The rest of the people quickly finished the work they were doing. Everyone was very enthusiastic, but they just endured it and were unwilling to complain first. Only Maggie was worried about it and her patience was worse.
Although Jiayi's house can accommodate all of them, they must go back to the college dormitory and cannot live outside.
When we returned to the dormitory, our roommates were curious about what Jiayi was doing. Jiayi said: "I heard from the teacher that the lake will be cleared soon. We all have to go and buy some equipment to make it safe."
"Will it be very dangerous?" Trudy said loudly, as if she was giving herself courage.
"It shouldn't be possible, but at least you must make sure you can persist in the teachers' rescue." Jiayi shook his head slowly, and hesitated while speaking. He didn't think it would be very dangerous, but he felt that he was too full of words. If something really happened, his sin would be great.
Just like an Internet company, it has written a long user agreement, pushing all the responsibilities to users. If you look closely at these agreements, it is much more hateful than the contract of selling your body. Whether in China or abroad, although the company itself does not want any surprises, it will never leave risks to itself.
Trudy nodded: "Then let's go buy some equipment, have you both bought it?"
The next sentence he asked Kaichi and Yanci. After receiving a positive answer, he asked Jill, "Will you go with Jill?"
Jill sat on the bed and said lightly: "I don't need it anymore. Before coming to the academy, I brought a lot of talismans, but none of them were used. It's enough to have these."
"Okay, then." Trudy stood on the bed, "What equipment did you buy from Jiayi?"
"It is best to buy one that can breathe underwater. After all, falling into the water is the most common on the boat. Just buy the remaining ones. It is best to transfer the shield or transfer yourself. Don't resist. Just stick to the teacher." Jiayi suggested this.
