Chapter 8 The Great Magician's Summoning

It has been nearly two months since he came to the Camilla Magic Tower, but this is the first time Xu Yi has entered the top of the Magic Tower.

As soon as he stepped into the exclusive area of ​​the great magician Camilla, a refreshing coolness hit the pavement immediately, making Xu Yi shiver and almost sneezed.

"It's really nice to have a large frost circle." Xu Yi rubbed his nose and smiled at Steele, who was leading the way.

"What? Are you envious?" Steele looked back at Xu Yi with curiosity in his eyes.

Some time ago, when Xu Yi discovered that magic fan, she was greatly surprised. She didn't expect that her grandfather would suddenly summon him now. Coupled with the impression Xu Yilai left on her first day, Steele was very interested in Xu Yi.

"Of course I'm envious." Xu Yi replied as a matter of course. "The seniors in the research room have said it countless times in private. If a large frost circle can be arranged in the research room, everyone's work efficiency can at least be improved several times."

Steele smiled, shook his hand and said, "That's not possible. Grandpa is a notoriously poor guy, but he doesn't have the money to install a large frost magic circle in every research room. Even his magic circle here. It is only used in the hottest days, and it is usually just a decoration."

Xu Yi knew a little about it, but he was still curious.

"Miss Steele, isn't that right? Your Excellency Camilla is still a three-star magician. If nothing else, the kingdom invests a lot of money in him every year. Why is he poor?"

"Because there are more places to spend money." Steele shrugged with a helpless expression. "You only know that grandpa is a great magician and enjoys the special salary of the kingdom, but you don't know how to study magic, especially for high-level magic like grandpa, which is very expensive. He spends every year just buying magic materials for research. Most of the time, the rest has to maintain the daily expenses of the magic tower, which is actually very stressful."

"That's it... But I heard that other great magicians are very rich..."

"Are you trying to say that Grandpa is not capable of making money?" Steele rolled his eyes at Xu Yi. "Tell you, you can't say this in front of grandpa, or he will be very angry."

"No no no, of course I don't think so. I just heard that Your Excellency Camilla has always been very opposed to magicians focusing on making money..."

"No way, grandpa is so stubborn." Steele sighed. "I have persuaded him several times, but he always said that a magician should focus on researching magic, thinking about making money all day long, and he is completely ashamed of the name of a magician."

Xu Yi nodded and said no more.

The attitude of the Great Magician of Camilla reminded him of the professors and scholars on Earth who focus on research. They also disdain for business, and feel that academic research contaminated with copper odor will deteriorate.

Xu Yi does not appreciate this attitude. Although the commercial atmosphere is too strong, it is bound to have a great impact on academic research. However, with commercial investment and increased research funding, the research environment and conditions can be greatly improved. The progress and efficiency of research will be greatly improved.

There are many examples of the perfect combination of academic research and business on the earth, and the two promote each other and the effect is better than pure research.

Moreover, the mechanical engineering industry Xu Yi is in is a science that is very close to practical application. If it cannot reflect commercial value in practical application, it will be a failure.

"It's here." Steele pushed open the door and made a gesture of invitation to Xu Yi. "Come in, grandpa is waiting."

Xu Yi sorted out his clothes and walked in with his head held high.

The private research room of the great magician Camilla occupies the entire top floor of the magic tower, and it occupies an extremely large area, which is four or five large as the research room where Xu Yi is located.

The arc top of the research room is very high, and the top is more than five meters away from the ground. Looking left and right, this place is almost the size of a slightly smaller basketball hall.

In the center of the entire space was a huge table, and behind the table was an old man with dark brown hair wearing a dark blue robe and doing magic research.

This should be the great magician of Camilla.

Hearing the sound of someone coming in, the great magician Camilla raised his head, and after seeing Xu Yi, he looked at him a little, nodded, and continued to lower his head to study.

Xu Yi is not surprised by this. He has long heard that the great magician Camilla is very obsessed with magic research. He must be immersed in a certain problem now and is unwilling to interrupt.

Taking advantage of this time, Xu Yi carefully looked at the environment in the research room.

The situation in this research room is much more tidy than he imagined. All kinds of strange magic materials are placed against the wall in different categories, but the table where the great magician Camilla is located is rather messy.

All kinds of strange traces can be seen on the ground and on the walls, which should be left by the great magician Camilla when she was doing magic experiments.

Many of the traces are very deep, and you can see from them that the situation at that time must be very dangerous.

Xu Yi's eyes suddenly stopped somewhere in the corner of the wall, where there was a lump of rotten iron, but Xu Yi could easily see from the rotten iron that this lump of rotten iron should have been made by Steele who bought it before. The first magic fan.

Judging from the tattered appearance of this magic fan, it should have been vandalized.

As for the spoilers...

Xu Yi's eyes turned back to the great magician Camilla, feeling a little strange in his heart.

"Could it be that the great magician Camilla is also very interested in this magic fan? But the magic level in this thing is so low, it shouldn't be in his eyes, right?"

Before long, the great magician Camilla seemed to have completed her research, stretched out, and straightened up.

After seeing Xu Yi, the great magician Camilla was stunned for a moment, but seemed to have completely forgotten about Xu Yi.

After a slight pause, he nodded to Xu Yi: "Are you Xu Yi?"

Xu Yi hurriedly bowed respectfully: "It's me, Your Excellency the Great Mage."

The great magician Camilla waved his hand: "Don't be so nervous, I asked Steele to come to you to ask you a few questions."

"Please feel free to ask, as long as I know, I will answer you wholeheartedly."

"Okay." Great Magician Camilla looked left and right, then came to the corner and brought over the piece of rotten iron that Xu Yi had just seen. "Listen to Steele, you made this thing?"

"This..." Xu Yi looked at the magic fan who could hardly see its true colors, and replied a little embarrassedly: "It wasn't like this when it was handed to Miss Steele."

"I don't blame Steele. I wanted to do some research, so I made it like this." Great Magician Camilla threw the magic fan aside, rebuilt it on the table for a while, and took out a blueprint. "Well, I came to you mainly because I'm interested in the magic circle you engraved on this magic fan. I don't quite understand some things. I hope you can answer it for me."

Xu Yi was instantly in awe of the great magician Camilla. With his status as a three-star great magician, he would actually admit that he did not understand something in front of himself, a guy who didn't even pass the magician's union qualification examination. , it can be seen that he is very serious about magic.

"Your Excellency Camilla, you are too polite. I think there must be nothing incomprehensible about this magic circle for a great magician like you. What is incomprehensible, probably has nothing to do with magic, right?"

The great magician Camilla pondered for a while, then shook his head: "It's okay to say that it is irrelevant, but it cannot be said to be completely irrelevant. Come, come and see, here..." The great magician Camilla reached out and clicked on the magic circle. some point above. "I can understand that your changes here will reduce the effect of the whirlwind formed by the magic circle, but I don't understand why you do it. Don't you want to make the magic circle more powerful?"

Xu Yi glanced over and immediately replied with a smile: "What you said is not bad, this change will indeed reduce the power of the magic circle, but sir, this magic circle is mainly to provide power for the magic fan, not at all. It needs to provide that powerful effect.”

The great magician Camilla shook his head: "That's not right, I tried your magic fan, although the wind blowing is not small, but have you ever thought that maybe sometimes a bigger wind is needed? For example You see, my room is so big, if I only put one magic fan, it can only blow to a small area, which can't meet my requirements at all."

Xu Yi spread out his hands with a wry smile: "Lord Camilla, I actually considered this issue when designing the magic fan, but due to the material of the magic fan, the fan blades can only withstand such a high speed for the time being. If the power of the magic circle is increased, the rotational speed of the fan blades can of course be increased, but I am afraid that the magic fan itself will not be able to withstand it, and it will be damaged in a short time."

"Is that so..." The great magician Camilla suddenly remembered the first time he injected magic power into the magic fan. At that time, the fan blades of the fan were rotating strongly, and it didn't take long to bear it, making the whole magic fan It turned into a piece of scrap metal, so Steele complained about him for a long time.

"Okay, that aside, what's going on here?"

"Oh, here, this is to ensure that the power output by the entire magic circle is maintained within a small fluctuation range, so as to ensure that the wind blown by the magic fan will not be particularly unstable."

"So what about here?"

"This has to be viewed in conjunction with the overall design of the magic fan. You see, this is the connection diagram of the central axis of the magic circle and the magic fan. If it is not designed in this way, the output of the magic circle will be greatly affected, and it will be flat. A waste of magic crystals."

"Very good, and here..."
