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

The magic world does not need to abide by the rules of the technological world, it has its own objective laws!

When Katerina realized this, the [Magic Energy Reactor], which imitated the principle of a nuclear power plant, was born.

"Girl, do you want to continue increasing the output?"

At this moment, looking at the water tank that was bubbling with high frequency in front of him, Victor's expression was extremely solemn. After glancing at Katerina, who also had the same serious expression, he asked the girl very seriously,

"I feel a bit adventurous. The material of the container is almost reaching its limit. If I continue to increase the energy output, I am worried that this thing will not be able to hold it."

Hearing Victor's inquiry, Katerina, who was staring at the movement of the instrument, looked extremely heavy.

Although it is a magical world, there is no need to follow the rules of the technological world, but if you want to climb the technological tree in the magical world, there are many thresholds. After all, you have to pay a price for jumping the technological tree in a slanted way.

Although relying on the imitation of the working principle of the nuclear power plant, the energy utilization rate of the [Magic Energy Reactor] is much higher than that of the original steam engine, but it also makes the shortcomings of the [Magic Energy Reactor] more prominent in other fields.

The most notable point is that what happens inside the [Magic Energy Reactor], the process of the magic crystal being activated and converting the magic energy into heat energy under the action of the magic circle, cannot be controlled, and it will happen if you don’t pay attention. big problem.

So far, the safe operation time of [Magic Energy Reactor] is only 5 minutes, and it must be shut down within 5 minutes. Once the safety time limit is exceeded, the fuselage of [Magic Energy Reactor] is in danger of collapsing.

"Continue to output!"

Finally, after looking at the high-precision clock placed nearby, Katerina let out a deep breath, and then, staring at the [Magic Energy Reactor], she ordered without looking back,

"It's only been 6 minutes, it should last for a while, let's continue to output, I want to know where the maximum limit of the new material is."

"But..." Regarding Katerina's response, Victor looked a little hesitant,

"This will be very dangerous, in case this thing explodes..."

The next moment, before Victor could finish speaking, Katerina waved her hands decisively and said,

"It doesn't matter. Let the others evacuate to the safe area first. We are the two of us here. Even if something happens, we have time to react."

Faced with Katerina's request, Victor opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he obeyed the girl's order with a sullen face, and began to arrange the evacuation of the surrounding people.

Victor's reaction caused a slight commotion in the laboratory, mainly because the knights guarding nearby had some opinions on Katerina's order, and Celia, who was Katerina's personal maid, wanted to stop the experiment. continue.

But in the end, with Katerina's firm insistence, the experiment was able to continue.

As time passed by, the [Magic Energy Reactor] began to emit bursts of overwhelmed roars, and the main water tank even faintly heard the sound of glass shattering.

Seeing this scene, Victor's expression became more and more nervous, while Katerina on the side was staring at the [Magic Energy Reactor] firmly, her eyes bursting with blue light.

Finally, at the 10th minute of the experiment, a crisp explosion suddenly echoed in the laboratory, and then, a tiny crack began to appear in the main water tank of the [Magic Energy Reactor], and it was only in the blink of an eye. The first crack expands rapidly and splits in large numbers.

Seeing this, Victor and Katerina, who were standing in front of the [Magic Energy Reactor], did not hesitate at all. The two quickly pressed the switch to shut down the instrument, and then cast spells to quickly move away from the instrument.

It has to be said that the response of the two was very timely. The moment they left the dangerous area, the [Magic Energy Reactor] made a muffled sound. Then, all the water tanks of its main body exploded, carrying the high-temperature [Sunburner] The molten crystal liquid shot out in all directions, making a "呲味" sound on the ground. At the same time, a large amount of white mist formed by water vapor rose into the sky.

"We failed~~"

At this moment, looking at the broken [Magic Energy Reactor] in front of him, Victor sighed softly, and then he directed his staff to clean up the follow-up, while smiling wryly at Katerina beside him,

"The materials used this time are already considered the highest grade. It seems that this is the limit of the instrument. If the control problem cannot be solved, it is impossible to keep the instrument running for a long time."

Having said that, Victor glanced at Katerina, and after noticing the girl's expression, he sighed, and then comforted softly,

"Girl, don't be too impatient. It's not easy to make it this far. Let's think of other ways."

"Otherwise you go to rest for a while, and I will deal with it here."

Faced with Victor's comforting words, Katerina did not speak, but silently stared at the broken [Magic Energy Reactor], not knowing what she was thinking.

After a long time, it seemed that she realized that it would be useless to stay any longer, so Katerina finally turned around and left the laboratory with a serious heart.

A few hours later, the line of sight switched to the study room of the villa. At this time, Katerina was holding a thick magic book and reading it carefully. Her delicate brows were tightly frowned, as if she had encountered some trouble. problem.

And just as Katerina was deep in thought, there was a knock on the door of the study, and immediately after, Seria, dressed in a maid outfit, walked in slowly with a cup of hot coffee.

After approaching Katerina, she noticed the heavy and tired expression on her young lady's face. A look of worry flashed in Celia's eyes. After hesitating for a while, she suddenly called out deliberately,

"Miss, your coffee~"

Hearing the voice coming into her ears, Katerina raised her head subconsciously, and after realizing that the person in front of her was Celia, she noticed the worry on her face, the girl frowned first, and then took it with a smile. coffee,

"Thank you very much, Celia, please don't worry, I'm fine."

At this moment, looking at Katerina, who was clearly facing difficulties but wanted to comfort herself in turn, suddenly recalling the encounter during the day, Celia lowered her head slowly, her expression suddenly became a little downcast,

"Miss, I feel so useless......"

"Whether it's strategy or force, I can't help you with anything. It will only hinder the young lady."

Hearing Celia's remarks, Katerina patted her shoulder angrily,

"What do you say!"

"Why do you think so? Celia, don't underestimate yourself, you are my right and left hand, without you, I will not feel at ease in doing anything."

"But..." Regarding what Katerina said, Celia raised her head, and the face that was supposed to be heroic, now showed a pitiful look,

"I can't help you with anything."

Seeing Celia like this, realizing that the result of the encounter during the day was still affecting her maid, Katerina had to restrain her mind, and then comforted her carefully,

"Selia, don't think too much, you are already very good, don't be too harsh on yourself."

Having said that, Katerina pointed to the magic book in her hand, chuckled and continued,

"If you really want to help, then come and help me think about how to solve the problem of the [Magic Energy Reactor], I really have a headache right now... .”

To be honest, Katerina mentioned asking Celia to help think about the problem at this time, but she just wanted to divert Celia's attention. I really didn't expect her to say anything constructive.

However, what Katerina never expected was that after she roughly described the troubles she was encountering, Celia actually gave a very effective suggestion,

"Miss, I don't know magic, but according to what you said, because of the material problem of the [Magic Energy Reactor], the working time of 8 minutes is the limit, and there is no way to extend it no matter what."

"In this case, why don't you consider setting up a few more [Magic Energy Reactors]?"

"When working, only let one [Magic Energy Reactor] run, and wait for the other few to cool down, and then repeat this process in circles, wouldn't it be enough?"

After hearing Celia's answer, the girl was taken aback instinctively, and then she retorted subconsciously,

"If [Magic Energy Reactor] is used to pile up the quantity, wouldn't the construction cost be..."

The next moment, before Celia could finish speaking, Katerina stopped herself first, because she suddenly discovered that her previous thinking seemed to have entered a dead end.

Because the construction cost of [Magic Energy Reactor] is quite high, Katerina, who needs to consider the construction cost, never thought of using [Magic Energy Reactor] to pile up the quantity.

But now that Celia mentioned this, Katerina suddenly discovered that the way of stacking numbers is actually feasible.

Building more [Magic Energy Reactors] will indeed increase the construction cost, but on the other hand, multiple [Magic Energy Reactors] can effectively increase the utilization rate of the magic energy in the magic crystal.

For example, due to various factors, the utilization rate of the magic energy of the magic crystal is relatively low due to various factors. After the magic crystal is activated, most of the magic energy will be wasted. Energy Response Apparatus] Composing modules that work at the same time can maximize the use of the magic energy in the magic crystal, reducing the cost of energy consumption.

In this way, although building multiple [Magic Energy Reactors] will greatly increase the construction cost in the short term, in the long run, using multiple [Magic Energy Reactors] to form a module is actually better than using a single [Magic Energy Reactor] Reactor] lower cost.

And most importantly, if multiple [Magic Energy Reactors] are used to form modules for operation, then the current technical level of [Magic Energy Reactors] is enough to invest in industrial production activities!

Thinking of this, Katerina's eyes became brighter and brighter. The next moment, as if she was too excited, she saw the girl hugging Celia in front of her, and then gave her a hard "boo" in the face.

"Seria, you are a genius!"

After an excited cry, Katerina threw away the magic book in her hand, and trotted away from the study.

What Katerina didn't notice was that behind her, Celia, who was supposed to be following her, stood motionless at the same time, covering the place where she was kissed on her face in a daze. .

Immediately afterwards, within a very short period of time, a blush of blood ran down Celia's cheeks and spread all the way to the depths of her neck......

Chapter 85 82. Meeting Ceremony

A few days later, when the night fell and the curtain was sinking, the mansion of the Marquis Aaron in Chris Port was full of lights.

At this moment, in the hall of the Marquis Mansion, a grand banquet is being held.

Looking into the hall, more than a hundred distinguished guests are holding wine glasses filled with expensive wines, forming their own small circles in small groups, and then whispering to each other. With beautiful laughter, a servant of the Aaron family shuttled through the crowd, carefully providing thoughtful service to the visiting guests.

At this moment, in the most prominent place in the hall, the little Marquis of Arlo, who had just received the royal conferment not long ago and had already officially taken over the title of Marquis of Aaron, was meeting with visiting guests, accompanied by his mother, to broaden the horizon. Own network of contacts as Marquis Aaron.

It stands to reason that the little Marquis of Arlo, who has just been promoted to become the new owner of the Aaron family, should be the protagonist of today's banquet.

But in fact, the guests participating in the banquet always showed some absent-mindedness when facing the new owner of the Aaron family. Many people always looked at the second floor of the hall from time to time, as if they were It's like waiting for someone to show up.

As for the current situation of being overwhelmed by guests, the little Marquis of Arlo, as the host, is actually well aware of it. Of course he knows who the visitors in front of him really want to visit, but he doesn't care.

Even in Arlo's view, everything that happened in front of him should have been taken for granted.

Everything that happened during this period seemed like a dream to Arlo. In the dream, he first fell into hell, deeply feeling what despair is, and just when he thought his destiny would completely sink, An "angel" suddenly appeared and guided him all the way to heaven.

This kind of feeling like being in a car has to be unforgettable for Arlo, and because of this, whenever Arlo thinks of the "angel" lady who saved his family from the fire and water, Arlo will always feel ecstatic. Express gratitude from the heart, and never get angry because of the opinions of people around you.

At this moment, accompanied by his mother, Arlo, who completed another round of greeting process with acquaintances, looked around the hall, and after noticing some small movements of the people in the hall, he couldn't help raising the corners of his mouth ironically.

Arlo knew exactly what the people in front of him were waiting for, and he also knew that at least today, everyone in the hall could not get the result he wanted, and all their small actions were in vain.

This feeling of knowing insider information, especially when the insider information is revealed by someone he cares about, makes Arlo feel very superior.

However, this sense of superiority did not last long. After thinking of a person from the Pusid Empire who had quietly arrived at the Marquis's Mansion, the sense of superiority that permeated Arlo's heart quickly turned into tension.

In fact, Arlo himself doesn't know what he is nervous about, but as long as he thinks of the identity of that imperial person and the person he has always kept deep in his heart, Arlo has shown a different attitude towards him. I felt an unusual tightness in my chest.

This weird feeling drove Arlo, just like a visitor in the hall, he would always instinctively look somewhere on the second floor of the hall.

In the end, Arlo's small movements were just like everyone else's, meaningless at all. The place he was staring at was always silent, and no one appeared.

At the same time, in a hidden room located deep in the second floor of the hall, someone who is being missed by everyone has no consciousness of being a guest at all. She is watching the blond man facing her closely at this time, her eyes It looked extremely dignified.

At this moment, facing the blond man who was looking at her with a smile on his face, Katerina couldn't help but feel a little headache.

Because Chris Harbor urgently needs to cooperate with the Pusid Empire, Katerina is extremely cautious about the current secret meeting and has made a lot of preparations for it.

However, what Katerina never expected was that the blond man in front of her did not play cards according to common sense. At the beginning of the meeting between the two parties, this guy did not hesitate to reveal his identity!

"Miss Katerina, you don't look very well, is there something bothering you?"

"Or...you have doubts about my identity?"

At this moment, upon hearing the greeting in her ears, Katerina couldn't help but look at the blond man in front of her with a blank expression. She had many ideas about this meeting, but she never thought that the other party would come to such a trick. .

Originally, after guessing the identity of the blond man, Katerina always thought that since the other party chose to visit Chris Port quietly, she would inevitably hide her identity and communicate with herself.
