Chapter 311 Communication and Network

After dismissing the apprentices, Green started processing the magic circle again.

This rough combination of wood board + mirror is obviously impossible to sell or use directly. Green has to further process it.

Green took off the magic mirror, and then applied a layer of glue on the magic circle to enhance its waterproof performance. At the same time, it can also ensure that the mithril threads and magic crystals inlaid on the magic circle will not fall off.After that, Green glued the magic mirror on, and then picked up the shell that was previously entrusted to the carpenter in the village, and carried out some appearance packaging on the entire magic mirror.

A few minutes later, a wood-colored tablet appeared!
"Discovered a new alchemy formula: Communication Mirror."

The communication magic mirror that has been fixed to send mirror images can be sold as a 1-to-1 videophone in groups of two.It can be activated as long as it is injected with magic power, and any magic apprentice can use it!The only problem is the price...

"The labor cost of an apprentice is 2 gold coins. My labor cost is 50 gold coins. Mithril costs 1 gold coin per gram. If the processing cost is included, it costs an average of 2 gold coins per gram..."

Green made a rough calculation and determined that the cost of a magic mirror with a constant sending mirror would cost more than 300 gold coins.Among them, the communication stone used to make the magic mirror occupies the bulk, followed by Mithril and some other precious materials. As for the labor cost of the apprentice, it is almost negligible-the black heart workshop never considers the labor cost of the apprentice.

"Then the cost of a pair of magic mirrors is [-] gold coins..."

Six hundred gold coins is equivalent to two years of land income for an ordinary barony.If the necessary territorial branch is excluded, it is estimated that it will take ten years to afford it-but it is obviously impossible for Green to sell at the cost price.

According to the regulations of the Lisbon Magic Association, the minimum selling price of the communication magic mirror that has been fixed to send mirror images is one thousand gold coins!For a pair, it costs two thousand gold coins. It can go up, but it can't be lower than this price.

Green's [Spell Constant · Send Mirror Image] was obtained from the association, so if Green uses this technology to make products for sale, he must abide by the association's pricing agreement.

Two thousand gold coins!

There is no need to count on the kind of small noble (land) clan (owner) in the countryside, they will definitely not be able to afford it.Those who can afford two thousand gold coins are at least the big merchant guilds or the lords of a city who own fleets. Ordinary little nobles in the countryside have no hope at all.

Green picked up the finished magic mirror and another small mirror, and entered the private workshop behind.

The workshop has two parts, one is a spacious apprentice workshop for apprentices, and the back is Green's private workshop.

After dispelling the magic trap at the door, Green walked into the workshop.

In the workshop, a group of Mona are carrying out the carving work with hammer and chisel in full swing.

"Mona~"

"Mona~~"

……

The Monas work very hard, but their efficiency is pitifully low.

This kind of efficiency is like dripping water through a rock. If it were replaced by any emotional person, it is estimated that it would have been unbearable.However, Mona is a summoned creature, and its intelligence is like a computer AI. It is a purely logical action, so they will not feel irritable or reduce work efficiency because they are boring.

The Monas are working as usual.

Green ignored Mona, walked to the workbench, and looked at the "network server" on the workbench.

This is a magic circle base made of obsidian. The magic circle is huge and rough, and its accuracy is far inferior to the magic circle in the communication mirror.

Although it looks rough and not fine enough, this kind of large magic circle is the mainstream in the world of Io - because it is cheap!And the precision requirement is low, and it is relatively easier to make.

Green placed the "Book of Thousand Laws" in the center of the magic circle, then put a magic mirror on a link ring, and then poured "cheap" magic blood into the magic circle to activate the magic circle.

The magic power is injected into the mirror mirror and linked with the server mirror.Green then began testing the "website."

The prototype of this network is very simple, with only one "Book of Thousand Laws" as the core, which is equivalent to only one website for the entire network.

But even if there is only one website, as long as it is done well, it will be fine.

"Fiction section, comic section, magic library, chat forum, personal space..."

Green held the magic mirror and looked through it.

Green built the website according to the "forum" method in the previous game, and set up relevant permissions.Among them, there is only one experimental product used for testing in the novel area and comic area, which is in the state of "to be developed", while the [Magic Library area] has been perfected, and it is full of various books—that is, Those books that originally existed in the "Book of a Thousand Laws".

Green classified the books in the [Magic Library Area] and set reading permissions.

Ordinary information has the lowest permissions and can be accessed by everyone, while spell books have different reading permissions based on different levels.In the future, these reading rights will be unlocked through apprentices’ “credits”.

[Magic Library Area] will be an important means for the Green Mage Association to train apprentices in the future, while the novel area and comic area are tools used to open up the high-end market—at least the metal dragons will definitely be interested in this, and the metal dragons will definitely be interested in it. They are also very rich!
"Well... generally there is no problem. The only problem is that there is too little space. Maybe you can consider transcribing these ordinary materials, and then delete these contents to make room..."

[Magic Library Area] occupies too much storage space of "Book of Thousand Laws".If "Book of Thousand Laws" is only used as a small personal library, it is enough, but it is a little bit difficult to use as a website server.

"Perhaps we should study the issue of 'optimization' in the future. The space occupied by a page of text and a picture is actually the same!"

If it were replaced by a computer on Earth, the space occupied by a novel with millions of words would be equivalent to a photo.But in "The Book of Thousand Laws", a few hundred words will occupy the storage capacity equivalent to a photo.

After Green tested it for a while, the blood on the magic circle slowly lost its aura.

"Beep~", the magic circle went out, and at the same time, the image in the magic mirror in Green's hand returned to normal, displaying the image in another magic mirror like an ordinary magic mirror.

"At present, it seems that there are no technical problems. Now we just need to follow the method of this magic circle and make it into a 'permanent' magic circle."

Looking down at the magic circle on the workbench, a smile appeared on the corner of Green's mouth.

Although the technology is basically ready-made, this is Green's first "invention" in this world.Before that, Green just used the technology of this world purely as if "playing a game".

After solving the technical problems, Green officially started the construction of the server with [-]% enthusiasm.
