Chapter 2 Just Have a Fan
"Hot! It's hot!"
A loud complaint suddenly sounded in the room, causing a burst of echoes.
"Yeah, how can it be so hot? It's almost dead."
"That's right, I can't wait to take all my clothes off!"
"Go away! Rem, you bastard, there are women here."
"Cut, Wella, are you also a woman?"
...
Hearing the complaints of his colleagues, Xu Yi raised his head and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve.
It was really hot.
Before he knew it, he had been working in the Camilla Magic Tower for a month.
It is already the beginning of July, entering the midsummer, and the weather is naturally extremely hot.
In the past month, he was doing some errands in a magic research laboratory under the great magician Camilla, and he hardly participated in specific magic research work.
Xu Yi was not surprised by this. With several years of experience working on Earth, he knew very well that a newcomer like him would have to do some basic work at first before he could gradually integrate into it.
What's more, his magical strength is not outstanding in the research room at all, and what happened when he applied for the job has long been spread, and now almost everyone in the research room regards him as the back door of Miss Steele before entering. Yes, many colleagues have a trace of contempt and disdain for him in their hearts.
"Did this guy be attracted to Miss Steele because of his good looks?"
Xu Yi could only smile bitterly. Apart from seeing Steele on the day he applied for the job, he never saw Steele again in the past month, except that he knew Steele from the chats of his colleagues. Except for the granddaughter of the great magician Camilla, who knows nothing about her, God knows how these rumors came out.
Of course, he also knew that the so-called rumors were originally baseless.
So he didn't explain at all, but while doing his job well, he kept improving his magic level by observing the magic research conducted by his colleagues.
Xu Yi's talent is actually quite good, although he is only watching from the side, his magic level has actually improved a lot this month.
After all, the strength of the great magician Camilla is far from comparable to those of the teachers in the Senke Haier Academy, although it is only some magic research arranged by him, the level of which is much higher than Xu Yi's study in the Senke Haier Academy.
"By the way, when I was called by the Great Mage to give a report the day before yesterday, I found that his room was very cool, why?"
The speaker was Rem, who was dismissed as a ** just now. He is a fifth-level magician who has passed the qualification examination of the magician's union. He ranks third in strength in this research room with a total of 17 people including Xu Yi. He is very outgoing and has a very hot atmosphere in the research room.
"Idiot, there is a large frost circle in the room of the Great Mage, of course it is cool."
The one who answered him was Wella, who rebuked Rem. She is a fourth-level magician. She is less powerful than Rem and has a more serious personality. She usually reprimands Rem, but everyone can see that she is actually right Rem is quite special, and has been recognized as a couple in private.
"Oh? Then why don't we have a large frost circle in our research room?"
"If you say you're stupid, don't believe it! It will cost 30 gold coins to set up a large frost magic circle, let alone ten high-level magic crystals every day to maintain the magic circle, but it will take five gold coins, a month. If you calculate it, it will cost 150 gold coins. I said Rem, how much is your monthly salary?" Wella replied angrily.
"Well... Haha..." Rem laughed dryly, not daring to answer.
Xu Yi is very clear, Rem's monthly salary is high in the research room, but it is only 30 gold coins, not to mention the consumption of maintaining a large frost circle, it is impossible to arrange it.
In the entire Camilla Magic Tower, the only room with a large frost magic circle is the room of the respected Archmage Camilla, and there are no other rooms.
"Actually, I was fortunate enough to visit the magic tower of the Great Mage Isenka last time. Every room has a frost magic circle, and every room even has red wine..." A slightly timid voice sounded.
This voice belongs to Salsa, who is the closest in age and strength to Xu Yi in the research room, because before Xu Yi entered the research room, her strength was ranked last, and her personality was a little weak, so any It seemed a little timid at times.
"Eysenka Archmagic? That's one of the richest archmages in our Lampari Kingdom, right? The conditions are of course much better than ours. You say, why is it also an archmagic, Aisenka? The great magician is so rich, but our esteemed great magician, Camilla, is so poor that he can't even set up a frost magic circle for us?"
After Rem sighed, he found that no one agreed with him. He looked around in amazement, but saw that everyone bowed their heads and made it clear that they did not want to answer him.
Only Wella gave him a vicious look and winked at him.
Rem suddenly realized that he was open-mouthed and said the wrong thing, so he quickly lowered his head and stopped talking.
Xu Yi, who took this scene into his eyes, couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth, revealing a smile.
Rem's question reminded him of the graduate tutors he encountered when he was a graduate student. Some tutors are more capable and can draw a lot of topics, so they naturally earn more, while some tutors are less capable, and of course earn less.
Of course, there are differences between the tutors who earn more, and some will pay the same amount of money to the postgraduates who work under their names. Naturally, everyone is happy.
On the other hand, some tutors earn a lot of money themselves, but they are very stingy with their graduate students, and of course they will be complained.
As for the category of Camilla the Great Sorcerer?
Xu Yi has not yet been qualified to meet the great magician Camilla, and without any understanding, naturally he cannot draw a conclusion.
"But to be honest, it would be nice to have a large frost formation, at least it wouldn't be so hot." Xu Yi shook his clothes, trying to let himself breathe.
Although he can arrange a small frost magic circle in his body to cool off the heat, maintaining the magic circle requires a lot of magic power. With his current magic power, it can only last for less than half an hour at most, and it takes more than three hours to recover. Hours of meditation are totally worth it.
What's more important is that the work in the research room will use magic power at any time, so even Rem, a powerful fifth-level magician, would not dare to waste magic power on this kind of thing easily.
Xu Yi habitually looked up at the wall of the research room, and found that it was empty, and there was no shadow of the air conditioner.
"This world with backward technology..." Xu Yi could only shake his head and sighed. "If there is no air conditioner, it would be fine even if there is an electric fan."
Thinking of the electric fan, Xu Yi suddenly moved in his heart, as if he had caught something.
After staying for a while, Xu Yi slapped his thigh sharply.
"Stupid! If not, wouldn't I do it myself?"
The sound of Xu Yi's slap on the thigh alarmed the other people who were working hard. They looked at Xu Yi in surprise, but found that this guy who had been relatively silent since entering the laboratory seemed to have suddenly encountered something happy. There was an ecstatic expression on his face.
"Is this guy crazy?"
How could Xu Yi pay attention to their gazes at this time, he was completely immersed in the idea that suddenly popped out of his mind.
That's right, he suddenly thought of making his own electric fan!
Of course, there is no electricity in this world, but there is something that replaces electricity, and that is magic!
Xu Yi quickly sorted out his thoughts in his mind, and quickly pulled a piece of paper and drew frantically on it.
As a professional mechanical engineer, although Xu Yi is not a light industry major, he has been very interested in the mechanical industry since he was a child, so he has a very good understanding of the structure and principle of electric fans.
Coupled with professional mechanical engineering knowledge, Xu Yi quickly copied the structural diagram of the electric fan.
After some research, Xu Yi quickly determined his own transformation ideas.
If you want to use automatic fans in this world, the first solution is power supply.
There is no electricity in this world, but using a magic circle can provide the same power, and this happens to be something that Xu Yi has been constantly researching when he was studying at Suncor Haier College.
The piano model he took out during the interview can actually be regarded as a manifestation of his research results.
The structure of the electric fan is very simple for a senior mechanical engineer like him, and the magic circle that replaces the electric drive is also not complicated. It only took Xu Yi less than an hour to draw the magic circle.
This magic circle is a primary wind magic circle, which can simulate the effect of low-level wind magic - wind whirl.
What Xu Yi has to do next is to combine this magic circle with the structure of the electric fan to successfully drive the fan.
Of course, there are still many problems to be solved.
For example, how high should the wind rotation speed simulated by the magic array be in order to drive the fan blades and replace the motor effect of the electric fan?
For example, if the magic circle is perfectly embedded in the structure of the fan, so that it can function without affecting the overall structure of the fan?
For example, as a power source to drive the magic crystal, what quality should be used to ensure sufficient power?

The more questions he thought of, the more excited Xu Yi became.
At this moment, he seemed to return to the time when he was still on Earth.
At that time, when the Engineering Research Institute did not encounter any problems, Xu Yi was so excited.
He's actually a real research maniac, researching and problem-solving, which is even more pleasurable to him than entertainment.
In the blink of an eye, it was time for get off work, and colleagues in the research lab left one after another.
Xu Yi is still immersed in research, but these colleagues have long been surprised.
During this month, Xu Yi stayed to work overtime almost every day.
These colleagues appreciate Xu Yi's spirit.
It's just that they didn't know that this time, Xu Yi was not just doing magic research.
