Robust Mage in One Piece

"It turns out that this is the treasure chest weird you said!" Kong Ming stood in front of the institute, looking at this weird thing in front of him.

A head of explosive green hair, two very thick eyebrows, the whole is connected together. Under the head is a half-opened treasure chest. Under the treasure chest, his feet are exposed, and two hands are exposed on the top. The rest of the body seems to be folded up, jammed in the treasure chest.

Although Kong Ming had seen this person when he was watching anime, he saw it in the anime and it was completely different from reality.

When watching anime, this is a very relaxing and enjoyable episode. A pirate who has a strong pursuit of treasure, even if he is stuck in a treasure chest, even if he is alone living Robinson’s life on this island. Also stick to your own treasure.

How inspiring and touching!

But when such a person stuck in the treasure chest appears in reality, it is not blood, but horror.

"Who is the treasure box monster..." The guy in front of me who is the treasure box monster is paddling his feet, jumping around, two pairs stuck in the treasure box, only the palm of his hand is still waving, "I But the gods on this island, gods!"

"Are you a god?" Kong Ming held his glasses with his hand, and looked at him carefully, "What **** can be as dirty as you, I said, how many years have you not washed your hair?"

"I just washed it in the rain last month..." The treasure box monster suddenly reflected, "Why should I tell you this!"

"I said Mr. Treasure Box Monster, is it because you have been stuck in the Treasure Box for too long, so your body is deformed?" Kong Ming looked at the Treasure Box Monster curiously, and reached out and poked the inside of the Treasure Box. , "What is this? Your body has grown together with the treasure chest."

"Yeah..." The treasure chest monster looked dim, with a downcast face, "Because of years of lack of exercise, this treasure chest has miraculously grown together with my body, and now I don't dare to break this treasure chest. Because if I break it, my body will die together."

"Then when you first got stuck in the treasure chest, why didn't you try to crash the treasure chest on a rock and get out of it?" Kong Ming pushed his glasses and asked about this he wanted to ask when he was watching anime. The question is, "You must have not been with the treasure chest at that time."

"I tried..." The green-haired treasure chest lowered his head in embarrassment, "but it hurts too much, so I gave up!"

"You are really a waste!" Kong Ming was planning to pat the treasure chest monster's head with his hands, but after looking at his hair that he claimed to have washed in the rain last month, he decided to give up the idea. Well, this island will be mine in the future, and it is indeed amazing that your body and wood grow together without injury. Now I declare that your disease is saved... You will be Aize from now on. Researchers in the Magic Laboratory of the Lars Chamber of Commerce."

"Although I really want to agree..." The treasure chest monster still looked sad, "But I can't do anything in the way I am now, and I can't help..."

"It's okay!" Kong Ming pushed his glasses lightly, "Your future job is to be studied! Believe me, this is very simple. Yallita, first find a few people to climb to the top of the mountain, and help the treasure box monster take him Move all the treasure chests down."

"No problem, boss!" Alrita replied neatly.

"Where's Hongdu......" The treasure chest who had longed for it was filled with excitement and tears.

After dealing with the treasure box monster, Kong Ming did not hesitate to return to the second basement of the research institute. At present, no matter whether it is a treasure box monster or a treasure beast, it is not as important as this magic node. If it weren’t for the treasure chest monster’s body just because it has been stuck to the wood, and then his body can grow together with the wood, this is a miraculous thing. If you need to study it carefully, you must learn it directly, do good deeds and put him and His pile of empty treasure chests were packed and sent back to the city of Navia.

As for the treasure chest monster, what was his mood when he saw that the treasure chests he had guarded for ten years were empty?

Does this matter have anything to do with Kong Ming?

"Hey, I seem to forget to ask what the treasure chest monster is called Meng or Meng?"

Forget it, this matter is not important, no matter what his name is, he will change his name to Treasure Box Monster in the future.

In the following days, Kong Ming stayed in this research institute. Although Kong Ming didn't understand the science and technology of this ancient kingdom's research institute itself, he didn't understand the words of those ancient kingdoms at all. But after all, Kong Ming was once a member of the savior reserve team, the monk of the Earth University. Basic scientific knowledge is still there. Not to mention that he has also studied the unscientific but magical Azeroth engineering. It is still possible to find the basic wiring of this research institute under addition and subtraction.

A week later, Kong Ming had already labeled the research institute roughly according to my thinking technique.

The first floor is mainly an office for administrative clerks plus cleaning and security. There are four to five small research laboratories. Kong Ming thinks that he may be doing some blood or other types of tests or research. This conclusion is derived from some test-tube-like equipment.

The second floor is a whole research room, as can be seen from some large equipment, it should be regarded as the core project here. But Kong Ming didn't know what exactly it was.

The third floor is also a whole research room, but the large equipment on the third floor is different from the second floor.

The fourth floor seems to be the place where the leaders or key members of the research institute live. Although nearly 1,000 years have passed, it is easy to see whether the furnishings are expensive.

The basement floor should be the staff dormitory, because the furnishings are extremely simple and there are few luxury items.

The center of the second underground floor is the generator transformed by the magic node, so this layer should be the core of the research institute. In the rooms around the magic node, there are some small research rooms similar to the first floor. It can be seen from the number of electrical equipment that the status of researchers here should be higher than that of the first floor.

The third floor underground is very strange. The floor and walls are covered with thick steel plates, and they are empty. I don't know what they are for.

The fourth and fifth floors underground are the same places as the prisons, and Kong Ming noticed that the fences of these prisons were still electrified, which should be used to detain some scary things. Moreover, the third, fourth, and fifth floors of the basement of the institute have specially opened up a path that can go back and forth between each other. This road is quite wide, and a jeep can easily get on and off.

The kind of mummy with a look of fear that Kong Ming found on the first floor has also been found in other places in the institute. There are more than 100 people in total. Judging from the location of these mummy, Kong Ming estimates this research. All personnel in the institute should be completely wiped out here.

But what is a bit strange is that the prisons on the 4th and 5th floors were empty. Kong Ming didn't know if the prison was empty, or if there were other reasons.

Judging from the layout of this research institute, what they were researching did not exceed Kong Ming's expectations. It should be the use of biological experiments to create weapons or viruses. But in the end, if they got off and killed themselves, Kong Ming didn't know.

Perhaps, the answer to this question has been permanently annihilated in the dust of history with those dead corpses.

Alrita had originally suggested finding a place to burn all the corpses clean, once and for all. However, Kong Ming was cautious and felt that he should keep two specimens. After picking and choosing, except for the two or three corpses that Alrita found pleasing to the eye, all the rest were pulled out of the institute and found a place. Burned.

When cleaning the mummy, Kong Ming collected all the papers with ancient characters in this research institute by the way. Although he couldn't understand it, there were always people in this world who could understand.

After sorting out all the leftovers of this research institute, Kong Ming made a decision.

He wants to transform this research institute into his first mage tower, not the kind he made in Navia City to make up the number, but the real one, with element pools, tower spirits, and golem making workshops. , The real mage tower that can conduct magic experiments and research. So those crew members on the Aegwynn were mobilized to do coolies. The first is the prison on the fifth floor. Kong Ming intends to clear it out and build the element pool of the mage tower.

Half a month later, all the five underground floors of the institute were evacuated, and the iron fences of those prisons were completely removed and shipped out of the institute. Yallita instructed the pirates to use these fences to add a yard to the stone tower, and then transplanted some flowers from the island in it.

However, Kong Ming didn't tear down the prisons on the fourth underground floor. He threw in some experimental mice he had caught from the Bison Pirates.

The element pool is the most important core component of a mage tower.

In Azeroth, or in any world, the four elements of earth, water, fire and wind are the basic modules that constitute the material universe, but the entire world is not only composed of elements. The world is also full of light and shadow, life and death. , Order and Chaos and other six different forces. They stir up each other and together maintain the balance of the whole world.

As a mage, or arcanist, the power that Kong Ming controls is the arcane energy from order. Arcane energy is extremely unstable. To control this power requires extremely precise operation and superb concentration, so few wizards regard arcane energy as their preferred energy for the mage tower.

Kong Ming is no exception. He is only a mage apprentice now, and he can't talk about manipulating arcane energy such high-end things, so he can only honestly use the second underground magic node to get through the pirates on the fifth underground floor. Pass the world to the element world, and then use the energy leaked from the element world to power your mage tower.

As for why Kong Ming didn't do this in Navia before?

Kong Ming would not admit that it was because his abilities were too frustrated. Without a powerful energy source like the Magic Node, he would never be able to open up the passage between the Pirate World and the Elemental World.

But the element pool, even the lowest element pool that Kong Ming plans to do now, is not a simple project that can be completed.

First, Kong Ming needs to use magical metal or elemental crystals with very good transmission performance to transmit the power of the magic node located on the second underground floor to the fifth underground floor. This thing was not difficult at first, but the problem is that the current magic node is still surrounded by a circle made by the great kingdom that converts magic into electricity.

In the case that Kong Ming didn't want to remove the ring, how to ensure that the magic guide line and the ring itself would not interfere with each other or even short-circuit, which troubled Kong Ming for two days.

During the time when Kong Ming was busy connecting the magic line to the fifth underground floor, he did not let his crew idle.

He decided to dig a large pond of ten meters by ten meters and a depth of more than five meters in the center of the five underground floors. After drawing the drawing, he threw the digging of the pond to Al Rita, and then Al Rita took the medicine and threw the drawing to her former butler, now the first mate Afu on the Aegwynn. Ah Fu threw it to the boat carpenter Nujianu. Nujianu had no place to throw the pot, so he could only pull a dozen crew members and do the work according to the drawings.

Then after finishing the work, Yallita ran to Kong Ming to pay 150,000 Bailey's overtime pay. Kong Ming said that he didn't know who got the overtime pay.

After digging the hole, Kong Ming flattened the entire fifth floor, including the wall of the 100-square-meter element pool, and reinforced it with a magic scroll that turned mud into stone, and then used marble slabs. Tiled a layer. Because there are not so many marble slabs on Zhen Beast Island, Kong Ming specially asked Yal Rita to take the Aegwynn to purchase it.

After covering the ground with marble, Kong Ming spent a full week on the fifth floor of the basement without sleep and food. After a dozen or so carving knives were abolished, he finally burned the energy-concentrating array required by the element pool.
