C178 Riche Wants to Make an Atomic Bomb
If Riko's judgment was correct, there was actually no need to accelerate the Metal element to a certain extent to bombard this kind of thing.
Because of its special nature, she actually only needed to create a large piece of this kind of metal that was very dense and heavy enough, and then wait for it to explode by itself.
It sounded very strange, but according to Riko's calculations at that moment. When the mass increased to a certain extent and crossed an unknown dividing line, the power of the Metal element separating would be greater than the power of fusing them together. Then, the terrifying reaction mentioned in Otto, Jaen, and Lizzy Maitner's thesis would begin.
Riko named the quality of this dividing line as the Critical Quality.
Before she officially started writing the incantation, her first step was to calculate the Critical Quality.
Loli Merlin returned to Fort Lerge that night and basically brought along everyone Riko was familiar with. Even Edina and Carol, these two people who accidentally developed the internal combustion engine, were brought over by Black Haired Great Devil Instructor.
What was worth mentioning was that because of the outbreak of war, Loli Merlin's Mage Tower plan was completely put on hold.
It was said that the blueprint had already been drawn and sent to the municipal committee to be filed. But now, Lotterdall City was gone.
Riko felt that Loli Merlin should be a little disappointed in her heart.
Maybe it was because they ate a drop of silver dragon blood and obtained the permanent buff to increase their talent. Shu Hsingnan. Angarmarin and Lorin had already broken through to the Fifth Rank and became glorious advanced wizard. Riko didn't even know when they broke through.
Virna and Dorothy's levels were slightly lower, but they were also at the Fourth Rank.
Dorothy's talent in medicine should be stronger than her talent in magic. She relied on drinking medicine to increase her level. Now, she was about to become a Potion Master. She did not level up because her magic power had not caught up. Her control over fire and ice elements still couldn't make her control the temperature accurately enough to make enough potions for her to step into the Master level.
The last one was Vilna Heissenberg, Loli Merlin's maid. It seemed that she had noticed a problem, and that was that she seemed to be a bit worse than the other four. She did not have Shu Hsingnan's grandpa and Angarmarin's talent. She also did not have Lorin's Titled Mage inheritance, and she did not even know how to concoct medicine like Dorothy did.
She did not want to be left too far behind by her companions who were rapidly improving.
So after Virna came to Fort Lerge, she decided to participate in Riko's experiment.
"Alright then..."
Facing the serious gaze of the golden-haired maid, Riko clasped her hands together and slightly lowered her head to agree in a low voice.
Even though they did not know what kind of help Virna could provide.
But Riko still agreed in the end.
"Using a super spell that can blow up a city once sounds very impressive."
Although Virna heard that her ancestor seemed to be from Westfalen, she did not seem to have much of a sense of belonging to the country that was in the middle of a war with Aldran.
It was probably because she grew up in Aldran.
"What can I do?" She blinked.
Riko thought for a while and took out a quill from her pocket. She held the paper and leaned against the wall, writing down a set of formulas made up of key data.
"Help me calculate this. It should not be difficult."
"Okay"
To Riko, the calculation of the Critical Quality was not very complicated. It was just troublesome.
If the silver-haired girl was thrown back to Earth now, Riko felt that she would probably never have to worry about mathematics classes.
She did not know where her computing ability came from. Maybe it came from the Titled Devil Instructor level? When her magic power reached a certain level, perhaps her computing ability would automatically increase.
In the books written by the mages Riko had read, there seemed to be very few people who would discuss this point. It was like a very ordinary thing that was not worth paying attention to.
Virna's strength was only Fourth Rank, and her computing ability was far from Riko's, so Riko did not give her too difficult to calculate.
In magic research, a large part of it was boring calculations.
Before a brand new magic was invented, it was very likely that the leader of all this would lead a few assistants to calculate their results over and over again in countless sleepless nights. There would even be mages who would give up on this path because they could not stand the boredom of research and would instead think of ways to increase their strength in actual combat.
Riko predicted that the real difficulty of this magic would be after calculating the Critical Quality. She would think of a way to write a spell that was powerful enough to gather Metal element together.
About an hour later, Riko Hasegawa blinked and took the piece of paper from Virna's hands.
Virna nervously sat up straight. She bit her lips, as if she was waiting for a judgment.
Riko subconsciously reached out and pinched her face.
After Riko noticed what she was doing, Riko unconsciously pulled back her hand and softly apologized.
"Sorry..."
The silver-haired girl shifted her gaze back to the piece of paper in her hand. Her gaze swept across the densely packed formulas and auxiliary runes. There were even some strange words mixed within that contained unknown meaning. Finally, she looked at the data that represented the final result.
The moment she saw the data, she felt that something was wrong.
Riko tilted her head. She felt that Virna's calculations were wrong. This caused the final Critical Quality to be calculated to be more than one ton. Although Riko had not actually verified it, her intuition told her that this Critical Quality was probably wrong...
Riko gently turned the direction of the draft paper and pulled Virna's long robe's sleeves, pointing at the set of data.
"Virna..."
"My calculations are still wrong?"
Before Riko could finish, Virna lowered her head and buried half of her face into her curled up legs.
"Sure enough, I can't do anything..."
