After Transmigrating to Become the Daughter of a Duke, I Just Want to Pursue a Career

It used to be an abandoned aristocratic manor. After Katerina took charge of Chris Port, the manor was bought by Katerina in her own name because of its hidden location.

As for why she bought such an abandoned manor, the reason is very simple. Katerina plans to build her own magic laboratory here to research and strengthen her own magic technology.

"I made it! I made it at last!"

At this moment, just as Katerina was about to step into the villa, an old man wearing a magic robe and full of gray hair rushed out of the villa excitedly, and then he trotted all the way to Katerina's side .After that, before he could catch his breath, the old man laughed at Katerina like crazy,

"Hahahaha, Katerina, you came just in time!"

"Follow me to have a look, I have successfully made the [Magic Energy Reactor] you mentioned!"

Chapter 78 75. Victor

At this moment, the old man in front of Katerina, who is announcing the results with fanaticism, is named Victor, and is a high-level magician. Unlike those mainstream magicians who are obsessed with pursuing power, this old man is A rare high-level mage known for making magic items in the magic world.

Katerina accidentally discovered the existence of this old man when she was integrating the power of the Aaron noble group, and then transferred him to her side without hesitation, and incorporated him into the technical department she had just formed .

In the beginning, Victor was actually very unwilling to be recruited by Katerina. It was only because of various interests among the nobles that he had to obey the girl's order.

This situation made Victor always blow his beard and stare when facing Katerina who forcibly pulled himself into a strong man for quite a while.

But soon, after Katerina revealed to Victor the various knowledge she had learned in her previous life, the relationship between the two changed rapidly.

How Victor looked at Katerina in the past was not pleasing to the eye, but after obtaining knowledge from another world from Katerina, when Victor looked at the girl again, the eyes were more than his own granddaughter Dear.

In fact, this eccentric old man really wanted to have a relationship with Katerina.

It's a pity that Katerina has no such plan. Whether it's a young adult or revealing knowledge, her purpose is very clear, that is to let this old man over 60 years old be honest and do his best Work hard for yourself regardless of gains or losses.

"Your Excellency Victor, don't worry~."

At this moment, after hearing Victor's fanatical announcement, Katerina just smiled and nodded, but there was no surprise expression on her face, as if all this was taken for granted.

Facing the excited old man who was almost jumping in front of her, Katerina calmed down for a while, and after making sure that the other party had calmed down, she said in a calm tone,

"Your Excellency Victor, I am very happy to hear the news you brought, but I still want to take the liberty of asking..."

"About [Magic Reactor], how far have you completed it?"

"Which step?"

It seemed that he didn't expect Katerina to ask such a question. Victor, who didn't react for a while, subconsciously replied,

"Of course it's all done! According to your request, that thing is already working...... Wait, what do you mean?!"

In the middle of speaking, as if realizing something, Victor suddenly widened his eyes, and then looked at Katerina angrily, even raised his beard, looking extremely angry.

"You little girl, are you doubting my ability?"

"Since I told you that the thing has been completed, it is completed. If you don't believe me, I will take you to see it now!"

Seeing the old man's attitude, Katerina, who knew she had slipped her tongue, coughed a few times, and then covered her mouth and smiled at the old man in front of her like coaxing a child,

"You misunderstood, Sir Victor, I didn't question what you meant. Your ability and character are well known in the world, so how could I question you?"

"I just want to ask, the completed [Magic Energy Reactor] you mentioned, how long it can run after one round after it is activated."

Hearing Katerina's explanation, Victor, who wasn't really angry at first, suddenly looked a lot better. After thinking about the girl's question for a while, he responded cautiously,

"If you want to ensure the safety time limit you mentioned, it can run for up to 3 minutes in one round, but in the state of extreme overload, the instrument can keep running for about 5 minutes. Once this time limit is exceeded, the instrument is likely to explode. "

After listening to the old man's answer, Katerina couldn't help narrowing her eyes, and at the same time muttered to herself,

"Only three minutes?"

"Not enough, this time is far from enough......"

"Then how long do you want?!" Because Victor was very close to the girl, he heard the girl's whisper as a matter of course, and after discovering that the girl had such an attitude, the old man lost his temper again.

"Little girl, I'm not afraid to tell you, based on our current conditions, 5 minutes is already the limit, don't have any unrealistic delusions!"

"unless..........."

At this point, facing Katerina's gaze, a sly look suddenly flashed in the old man's eyes,

"Unless you can tell me more about the reaction principle of mana fission, I can't continue to improve."

"Heh~" At this moment, after hearing Victor's sudden remarks, Katerina, who reacted, blinked her eyes and glanced at the old man in front of her, shaking her head while sighing with a half-smile,

"Your Excellency Victor, your request is too difficult for a human being."

"It's not that you don't know, the little knowledge in my mind has already been explained, no matter how much you ask, I can't give you more knowledge."

Speaking of this, the girl paused slightly, then continued with a serious face,

"Forget it, this is not a place to talk, Sir Victor, I think we are still an advanced laboratory."

"I still have plenty of magic power now. I will activate the Azure Eye to take a look later. Maybe there will be some new discoveries."

After all, Katerina didn't wait for the others to react, she took the lead and walked towards the interior of the villa. Seeing the girl leaving quickly, Victor, who wanted to continue talking, had no choice but to follow the other The people chased after them together.

After a short time, the group of people successfully arrived at the central hall on the second basement floor of the villa after passing through multiple security posts.

At this moment, in the center of the underground hall, there is a large instrument about the height of two people. The main body of the instrument is a cylindrical utensil surrounded by six large transparent jars. The jars are already filled with green liquid From time to time, a string of bubbles can be seen rising from the green liquid. When the bubbles roll up, you can faintly see several magic circles blooming in the transparent jar. This kind of picture looks quite strange.

Under the guidance and reminder of the servants, Katerina and her party stopped a meter away from the instrument. After looking at the instrument in front of them for a long time, they didn't know what they thought of. The girl suddenly sighed deeply. After taking a deep breath, a sound of perseverance was heard in the hall,

"Start it~"

"Let me see what it can do!"

ps: There are originally [-] words, but because it involves some industrial settings, the author decided to check it again

Chapter 79 76. [Magic Energy Reactor] and another test item

As Katerina's voice fell, the people around were only slightly taken aback, and then quickly ran to their respective positions and began to carry out Katerina's order.

Immediately afterwards, accompanied by bursts of incantations, the huge instrument standing in the center of the hall suddenly moved. First of all, in the jars mounted on the instrument, there were only a few bubbles that appeared from time to time, and suddenly changed more up.

Afterwards, the green liquid in the jar seemed to be boiling, and endless bubbles floated up from the green liquid, and the force brought by it even caused the whole instrument to shake slightly.

And just after the instrument was running to this point, something weird happened. There were bursts of piercing noises around the instrument, and then, as if an earthquake had occurred, the entire hall began to tremble.

When people subconsciously looked towards the source of the noise, those members of the crowd who entered the villa for the first time were extremely surprised to find that the floor of the hall was sinking slowly!

Fortunately, before the panic spread among the crowd, all the changes suddenly stopped.

Finally, after confirming that the mutation had disappeared, those people who were still in shock began to look around instinctively, and then they found that the position they were in at this time had sunk at least 2 meters from the ground, and the surrounding walls had already collapsed. From stone bricks, it became a mechanical world formed by countless metal gears and metal rods intertwined.

Obviously, the change just now has something to do with these gears and metal rods.

At this moment, after looking around, Katerina re-locked her eyes on the instrument in front of her. Her eyes were extremely complicated, as if she was relieved after seeing her child finally succeed, and also as if she had gone through hard work. The relief after finally accomplishing a major event, but more, the excitement that seems to have grasped the future in his hands.

At present, only Katerina, who is a traverser, knows what the successful operation of this instrument called [Magic Energy Reactor] means.

The sound of metal rubbing that has not yet dissipated in my ears just now is not harsh noise, but the first cry of the industrial revolution that is about to come to this world!

In Katerina's previous life, human civilization had been in ignorance for a long time, until the appearance of the steam engine, the development speed of the entire human civilization, as if turned on, was suddenly raised to an incredible level.

Why can a small steam engine make such a big difference?

The reason is very simple. Energy is the basis for all things to change. The progress of human civilization is largely due to the technological innovation of how to use energy. The more efficient the use of energy, the more it can improve the development of productivity, and the growth of productivity Progress will in turn promote the overall progress of civilization.

Therefore, a small steam engine can bring unimaginable changes to human civilization.

At present, the appearance of the [Magic Energy Reactor] is basically equivalent to the appearance of the steam engine or even the internal combustion engine in Katerina's previous life. Facing such a historic moment, how could Katerina not be moved by it.

At this moment, looking at the [Magic Energy Reactor] that was recovering calm in front of her, Katerina subconsciously took a few steps forward, and she slowly stretched out her hand, as if she wanted to touch the instrument in front of her.

But at the next moment, Katerina's behavior was severely stopped by someone...

"Are you crazy?!"

After slapping Katerina's palm off, Victor glanced at the instrument in front of him with lingering fear, and then yelled at the girl viciously,

"Girl, have you broken your mind by staying in the pile of files for a long time?"

"Can this thing be touched by hand?!"

"You set the safety rules yourself, why are you taking the lead in violating them?"

At this moment, after being scolded by Victor, Katerina was taken aback for a moment, and then apologized sincerely,

"I'm very sorry, Your Excellency Victor. I lost my temper just now. Thank you for your protection. I promise there will be no next time."

After a simple apology, Katerina suddenly changed the topic,

"Although I know it's a bit presumptuous, I still want to ask again, can the safe operation time of this [Magic Energy Reactor] really be improved?"

"3 minutes is too short, at least it needs to be increased to 1 hour."

"1 hour?!" Hearing the girl's request, Victor, who was still angry, immediately blew on his beard and sneered exaggeratedly.

"Girl, it's better to dream at night."

"It's still the same sentence, unless you have a better magic fission formula, the current level is the limit of what I can do."

Faced with Victor's aggressive attitude, Katerina was not angry, but after a moment of thoughtful silence, she spoke again in a tentative tone,

"What if you add me?"

"Add you~?" Hearing the sound, Victor, who was still angry, suddenly froze. Then, after realizing the meaning of Katerina's words, the old mage couldn't help but stare. the eyes asked back,

"Why, you finally figured it out and plan to crawl out from the pile of documents?"

"Ahem~" Hearing the old man's question, Katerina coughed a few times, then chuckled softly,

"It is of course impossible to give up completely. [The company] is now in a critical period. If I let go now, there will be a big mess. Not to mention other things, this laboratory will definitely not be able to continue."

"However, for some reason, I should have time for the next week...... eh!"

"Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up!" The next moment, before Katerina finished speaking, Victor immediately grabbed her arm and hurriedly dragged her somewhere, as if he was afraid of wasting time.

Because of the [Magic Energy Reactor], Victor and Katerina have cooperated for a while, and because of this, he really knows how powerful the girl's bloodline power is in the magic field. The power to directly see through the essence of magic is simply cheating in magic research.
