Wizard: I Have a Game Panel-Chapter 394 - 279: Blood’s Second Assessment

"Haha, it really worked. Didn’t I say my approach was correct?" Lawson beamed.

He had previously stated that as long as the Energy Loop patterns were sufficiently dispersed, the existing materials could absolutely bear the pressure of energy transport at the Sixth Ring level.

Supported by some experiences from the Second World’s information exchange list, the results were evident.

"Indeed." Aaron nodded repeatedly.

"The research on energy circuits by external civilizations is indeed exquisite." Ernie’s face showed a trace of admiration, then he sighed, "Unfortunately, this set of energy circuits seems to only be usable on large Energy Furnaces. The limited surface area of a Small Energy Furnace doesn’t allow for engraving."

It is certainly a good thing to develop a large Tier Six Energy Furnace, but their ultimate goal at this stage is to research a Small Energy Furnace.

"I have another new idea."

Lawson hurriedly interjected, "If it can’t be engraved on the surface, it can be engraved inside the space-expanding interior!"

"I know this could easily conflict with space inscriptions, and to get it truly running may require completely scrapping the current system and redesigning a new energy loop system that can operate jointly with space inscriptions."

"But in the absence of breakthroughs from the Magic Artifact Research Institute in terms of materials science, this is already the most hopeful direction for achieving a breakthrough."

The success of the previous direction filled him with confidence, and he immediately proposed this research direction for a small Tier Six Energy Furnace.

"This..." Aaron’s eye twitched, wanting to speak but stopping.

Starting over sounds easy to him.

But those four seemingly light words actually mean abandoning most of their previous work and reconstructing an energy loop system.

While it won’t be as difficult as going from 0→6, it’s at least equivalent to going from 3→6.

"It’s worth considering." Ernie nodded without hesitation, "In the future, we’ll reconstruct the energy system while waiting for news from the Magic Artifact Research Institute."

Difficulties aren’t scary; what’s scary is having no research direction.

Among all the research directions he could think of, the one proposed by Lawson was indeed the most feasible.

There’s nothing more to say, just one word: Do it!

"Great!" Lawson’s smile grew even brighter.

"Alright then." Aaron rubbed his temple with a bit of resignation.

Wizard Calendar, year 4735, November 13th.

On the top floor study of the Lor Wizard Tower on the Betula Continent.

"I have completed a total of thirty-two Time Runes, of which twenty-four are construction-type Time Runes, and eight are functional Time Runes."

Lor flipped through the parchment in his hand, calculating silently: "Excluding the previous sixteen, this time I can present a total of sixteen Time Runes."

"According to the agreement, this can delay the opening of the Trial Field by a total of eight hundred years."

The last time, relying entirely on the River of Time Scroll, he managed to complete six Time Runes over a hundred years, delaying the opening of the Trial Field by two hundred and fifty years.

In these two hundred and fifty years, with the help of players, the number of completed runes increased by ten.

The remaining six were still completed through the River of Time Scroll.

Compared to the first round where he completed six runes in a hundred years, this time took two hundred and fifty years to complete six, the difference seems large on the surface.

In reality, this isn’t the right way to calculate it.

Because he spent fifty years in between using Macroscopic Insight and organizing the Time Runes discovered from it, and then spent some time constructing the Time Rune structure and drafting the Time Disruption Witchcraft.

In bits and pieces, he only spent about a hundred and fifty years on the River of Time Scroll.

Compared to a hundred years for five runes, a hundred and fifty years for six isn’t too much of a reduction; it’s acceptable.

"I just wonder if that entity will be satisfied with my progress this time." Lor’s thoughts wandered as he placed most of his attention on the Second World.

Today was the day for the second evaluation by Blood—accurately speaking, there were only three minutes left until the time.

Based on the last encounter, he was indeed a bit anxious.

Although he completed ten more Time Runes thanks to the players, that entity could clearly see the essence of why he could complete them so fast, so these ten additional Time Runes didn’t give him much confidence.

...

In the Second World, on the top floor lounge of a Pitch Black Wizard Tower, indistinguishable from reality.

Lor sat on a chair, thoroughly examining the emerald green light screen in front of him.

The emerald light screen displayed comments on the Space-Time System, most of which were unreliable, though a few inspired him somewhat.

One minute...

Two minutes...

When the time hit the mark of three minutes, Lor had already prepared himself to be instantly transported to that towering tree-filled space, as he was two hundred and fifty years ago.

However, he unexpectedly found that he wasn’t immediately transported. Instead, a message from the Manager, Blood, appeared in the contact list.

"Could something unexpected have happened? I hope it’s not bad news." Lor’s heart tightened. He hurriedly opened the contact list and clicked on the message sent by Blood.

Lines of text appeared before his eyes.

[Greetings, Speaker Lole. According to the agreement, it’s time for the second evaluation. Are you ready?

——Manager Blood]

"Hmm?" Lor thought he was seeing things wrong. He quickly shook his head and took another look at the second line of the message.
