As more and more basic rune arrays are parsed and simplified into general rune substrates, the equipment of Cecil soldiers will inevitably usher in a new update. In Gao Wen's vision, a complete version of Cecil infantry equipment should include such a system:

The energy system is equipped with a combat backpack with high-efficiency honeycomb magic net and magic capacitor. It can charge a large amount of magic crystals at the same time and has extra magic power to drive various energy-consuming units on soldiers. The protection system uses steel armor stamped by the machine as the carrier to inscribe various protective magic arrays and auxiliary magic arrays inside the armor, thereby achieving comprehensive protection against foreign magic, poison gas, and physical attacks. Traditional enchanting armor is expensive, but using a general magic array to achieve the effect of similar enchanting can greatly reduce it.

In this case, the force field shield in the arm armor is also part of the protection system; the weapon system is mainly thermal ray guns equipped in the arm armor and swords in the hands of soldiers. The former has been mass-produced, while the latter has not yet improved the idea. In Gao Wen's conception, even if the soldiers' cold weapon fighting project is retained, the swords of the Cecil combat soldiers must be modernized. Traditional steel weapons appear too weak when facing opponents similar to distorted and extraordinary people, and various enchanting effects are necessary.

But how to improve traditional swords needs to be carefully considered.

In addition, Gao Wen hopes to achieve instant communication on the battlefield.

The importance of communication technology is self-evident, allowing every soldier to receive command from the rear in real time on the battlefield, and allowing every commander to immediately understand the changes in the battle situation. The combat effectiveness of a unit with modern communication technology can be unimaginable to traditional aristocratic army, so adding communication systems to the "Cecil combat suit" is the top priority, but unfortunately, there is no clue yet.

There are indeed messaging spells. The Mithril Treasure House also created communication equipment like the Mithril Ring. However, this special spell is a "technical black box" in Gao Wen's view. Its magic principle has not been clearly analyzed yet, and the rune composition of its magic array is completely inconsistent with the laws of conventional magic arrays. Jenny's rune logic is not perfect enough to simplify and analyze such a magic with unknown principles. This has led to the cost of messaging magic props that cannot be reduced for the time being, and the cost cannot be reduced, which means that it cannot be used on soldiers...

The combat arm armor with the force field shield module added has not changed from the appearance. Gao Wen closed the shell of the arm armor again. When the crisp click sound rang, he looked at Rebecca next to him: "There are more modules in the arm armor, and more replacement components can be added. Now it has both offensive and protective properties. You can consider it from the auxiliary aspect, such as the first-level ‘secondary clearing technique’ or the magic light technique used for lighting. This is a spell with extremely low energy consumption, but it can have a great effect..."

Rebecca and Jenny had taken out the small notebook at some point, listening and taking notes while listening. Jenny couldn't help but look up and asked, "But Lord... After adding so many functions, is this arm armor still a 'hot ray gun'?"

"So I said from the beginning that the arm armor is just a carrier, and the thermal ray gun is part of the arm armor, not all of it," Gao Wen smiled. Until this time, he could explain his original idea clearly to the two girls in front of him, and until then they could fully understand what the so-called modularity means. "We should give it a separate name for this kind of arm armor - I named it 'magic terminal'. According to the modules loaded in the terminal, it can be a thermal ray gun, an energy shield, a communicator and a medical device, or even a lightning launcher and a fireball launcher. Different types of troops can use its different functions, and even... we can also develop civilian models."

Rebecca finally reacted: "So...this is what you really thought at the beginning?"

Gao Wen nodded, then smiled helplessly: "It's a pity that if I had told you to everyone at that time, most people would probably not understand or imagine it."

Jenny looked at Gao Wen in a little astonishment. She suddenly felt a strange feeling. In front of her, she seemed not to be an ancient hero living seven hundred years ago, nor was she a Cecil who lived in the modern era. The duke was showing an atmosphere that did not belong to this society at all, or even this world. He looked at what happened on this land from a near bystander perspective, and carried out a plan based on this - the plan was so grand and so beyond the perception of contemporary people that no one could understand what he wanted to do even if he casually said any step of the plan...

But this feeling was fleeting, because Gao Wen suddenly raised his hand and knocked Amber's head sneaking out of the table - the approachable and strange humorous lord was back.

"What are you doing sneaking?" Gao Wen stared at the amber that suddenly came out from the table. The latter obviously intended to scare her, but she didn't expect that her stealth effect would be relieved in advance by the stimulation of Gao Wen's protective aura. At this time, her head was hit, and the half-elf lady covered her forehead with a grievance: "I'll report to you a situation, do you want to hit someone..."

"Stop making trouble, anyone stepping in to report the situation in the shadow?"

"Take," Amber curled her lips, "How long will it take to finish your work here? Pittman asked me to tell you that the No. 1 reaction tank in the Alchemy Factory is in place and is waiting for you to go and accept it."

"Ah, I forgot this!" Gao Wen slapped his forehead. He knew that the completion of the No. 1 reaction tank in the Alchemy Factory today, but the batch of rune substrates and magic armor design progress sent by Jenny and Rebecca made him completely forget about it. At this moment, Amber came over to remind him, and he immediately stood up and put down the arm armor in his hand. "Jenny, Rebecca, I'll go to the Alchemy Factory first. You can go back and arrange the design work of universal substrates yourself - the progress is good at the moment, and I'm very satisfied."

Jenny obediently put away the drawings, substrates and arm armor on the table, but Rebecca obviously did not intend to go back to the institute honestly. She came up and grabbed Gao Wen's arm and shook it hard: "I'll go too, I'll go too! I'll go too! I'll go to the alchemy factory too! I haven't seen what's there yet..."

Gao Wen glanced at the silly roe deer: "What did you do in the past? It was just a reaction tank completion, not a ceremony for the completion of the entire factory - and you don't understand alchemy."

"I can go over and set two fireballs to help you liven up! Shouldn't fireworks be set up for something worth celebrating..."

Gao Wen immediately glared at her: "If you dare to throw a fireball in the alchemy factory, I will throw you out as a fireball!"

"I'm talking about throwing it into the sky..."

"Not even in heaven!"

Rebecca stuck out her tongue and raised her hand honestly: "Then I swear in the name of ancestor Cecil, I will definitely be honest..."

Halfway through hearing this, Gao Wen was about to nod, but suddenly woke up and smelled: "I am your ancestor!"

Rebecca: "…"

Amber next to him quietly approached Jenny, lowered his voice and muttered to the latter: "Do you think that the two of them have a trick in their minds when they communicate?"

Jenny has now adapted to the atmosphere of Cecil's territory, but she can't adapt to Amber's mouth, and she immediately didn't know how to proceed: "I...I don't know what to say..."

"Go, there is no meaning at all," Amber glanced at the rune teacher who could not be the supporting actor with contempt, turned his head to look at Gao Wen, "Old Zongzi, are you still leaving? It's interesting to quarrel with your granddaughter..."

As soon as Amber opened her mouth, she successfully diverted the attention of Gao Wen and Rebecca, and the latter immediately had no conflicts...

Anyway, under Rebecca's soft and hard work, Gao Wen brought this iron-headed baby with over-curiosity, followed Amber and his group to the location of the alchemy factory on the edge of the town.

Even with the new construction technology of "black technology", the alchemy factory is still far from completed. Currently, only workshop No. 1 and supporting storage facilities have been completed. Only one set of reaction tanks in workshop No. 1 have been completed. In Gao Wen's conception, at least three workshops and twelve reaction tanks are needed here to meet the production of basic alchemy agents - plant catalytic agents in agriculture, soil modification agents, weed inhibitors, druid treatment potions for people, weak magic potions,

There are more than a dozen basic potions for various disease-repellents, etc. In the hands of traditional alchemists, these potions are made of an alchemy platform and several reaction bottles in a small alchemy laboratory. However, this operation is obviously not used in the factory: the reaction containers in the factory will continue to operate, and whether the material is added or the output of the finished product is carried out in batches and uninterrupted. Therefore, except for a few special circumstances, each potion must correspond to a special reaction container.

Therefore, according to the properties of basic potions, Pittman divided them into twelve "production lines" and three different workshops. The workshops were isolated from each other to form different areas to ensure that the produced potions would not be mixed and caused accidents. In fact, if the potions used by ordinary people, the potions used by extraordinary people and the potions used for agriculture should not even be produced in one factory, but the conditions in the territory are limited now, and the cost of starting three alchemy factories at the same time is really terrible. In addition, the druid potions are essentially different from the "pesticides" that Gao Wen recognized in his previous life. The currently scheduled basic potions are not too dangerous to be contaminated, so he allowed the practice of placing three workshops in one factory.

However, he also made special requirements for Pittman - if he wants to produce higher-level agents with greater efficacy and toxic side effects in the future, he must completely isolate the entire production link, and there must be no hidden dangers of mixed pollution from raw materials to semi-finished products to finished products.

The tall reaction vessel stands in the still empty production workshop. Pittman, the apprentices he brought out and the ordinary workers he recruited are busy around this brand new equipment. This is an unprecedented set of devices, different from any alchemy container in the world, and different from the various magic machinery that are booming in the territory, and of course, it is even more different from the chemical equipment in Gao Wen's memory in his previous life.

In the center is a two-meter-high vertical iron can. Several curved pipes connect the iron can and several small reaction vessels around it, forming a radial structure that looks like a star. Those pipes are not only material and gas circulation pipes, but also part of the magic array. Where these "pipe magic patterns" are connected with the reaction vessels, you can see the shiny druid magic runes and various magic runes complement each other. On the surface of some reaction vessels, you can also see magic arrays of large and small being emitted light. On the "base" of the entire device, the surface of the cement platform more than ten centimeters above the ground is the key to everything: the inverter array.
