?Chapter 881: 275. Magical Advantage_2


    “When controlling the magic ess meter, I need to consume about 20,000 to 30,000 points ofputing power per second to exchange for the 40,000 points per secondputing power output of the magic ess meter. If you give me some time to optimize the interaction array of the magic ess meter, I should be able to reduce theputing power required to control it to 10,000 points per second, or even just 1,000 points per second. That would mean I’ll be consuming 1,000 points per second ofputing power to get 40,000 points per second from the magic ess meter.”


    Nolin adjusted his sses and ced his hand on the ss ball of the ess meter:


    “Sir, the potential of the magic ess meter is tremendous. Its production difficulty is far lower than that of Metal Creation Group’s Array Computer.


    “If we extrapte from the development trajectory of the Array Computer, there are two future directions for the development of the magic ess meter.


    “First, is to increase theputing power output level and data storage capacity of a single magic ess meter. This requires you to create more and more powerful magic crystal tubes.


    “The second direction is to form an ess meter matrix using multiple magic ess meters. Theyout pattern of the matrix can be distributed or centralized. <div>


    ...


    “Considering that you are the creator and owner of the magic crystal tubes, I suggest adopting a centralizedyout pattern, which is to use one Level One Magic ess Instrument to control many Level Two Magic ess Instruments connected to it.


    “The Level One Magic ess Instrument is for assigning work tasks, while Level Two Magic ess Instruments are specifically for processing tasks.


    “Under thisyout, we only need to control the Level One Magic ess Instrument in order tomand arge number of Level Two Magic ess Instruments.


    “For every additional Level Two Magic ess Instrument, our overallputing power output level and data storage space will increase ordingly.”


    Nnd Lee listened and nodded slowly in agreement.


    By contrast, Selena, who didn’t understandputer systems very well, was a bit confused.


    Nnd Lee exined to Selena:


    “Think of Nolin as a wizard specializing in controlling Magic Servants, take the Level One Magic ess Instrument as her Magic Circle to control arge number of Magic Servants, and the Level Two Magic ess Instruments as the Magic Servants.


    “Adding Level Two Magic ess Instruments is like increasing the number of Magic Servants. Nolin, as themander of the Magic Servants, only needs to distribute work tasks through the Magic Circle.


    “But Level Two Magic ess Instruments are not exactly the same as Magic Servants. Magic Servants cannotmand Magic Servants, but Level Two Magic ess Instruments canmand Level Three instruments, and the Level Threes canmand Level Fours. Is that right, Nolin?”


    Nolin nodded:


    “Yes, Mr. Jarvis is correct, that’s what I mean.”


    Fortunately, Selena was a powerful woman owning many Magic Workshops; with Nnd Lee’s exnation, she understood the usage of the magic ess meter.


    Then, she asked a question that hit the nail on the head:


    “You two, I want to ask, why don’t we just use Magic Circles and Magic Servants to provide services for us?”


    Selena crossed her arms, propping up the full moon, her brows slightly crinkled in confusion:


    “Just as I control Magic Servants to build Ind 33, I only need tomand the Magic Servants with my thoughts, and they will carry out the tasks I’veid out ording to my will. This magic ess meter… um… it seems other than solving someputational problems for us, it doesn’t have other uses, does it…”


    Nnd Lee knew that Selena would ask this.


    He reached into his Magic Pouch.


    A shiny object appeared in his hand.


    “Selena, what would you do when I cast the Soul Stagnation Field?”


    Nnd Lee shook the crystal in his hand:


    “Magic Servants require a soul to drive them. All I need to do is unfold the Soul Stagnation Field, and within its range, all magical things will be paralyzed.”


    Selena raised an eyebrow:


    “You mean to say that the magic ess meter isn’t affected by the Soul Stagnation Field? But didn’t you use the Shaping Energy Technique to make the magic crystal tube? Logically speaking, the magic ess meter, which relies on magic crystal tubes, should also be driven by your soul, right?”


    “That’s exactly the issue,” replied Nnd Lee as he securely stored the crystal and then took out a Soul Stasis Pendant:


    “Let’s do an experiment, Selena. What do you think will happen when I ce so many Soul Stasis Pendants on the magic ess meter? Will it be paralyzed, disintegrate, or operate as normal?”


    Nnd Lee tied the pendant to the magic ess meter.


    Something magical happened, the magic ess meter, driven by Magic Energy, was not forced to shut down.


    It showed no reaction and remained operational.


    “How can this be…” Selena was stunned.


    She summoned a Magic Servant with the appearance of a water vortex, took a pendant down from the magic ess meter, and hung it on the Magic Servant.


    “Pff~~”


    The Magic Servant shrunk like a deting balloon and vanished with a puff of White Fog as the pendant ttered to the ground.


    Looking back at the magic ess meter with the pendants still attached, it waspletely unaffected by the ‘Soul Stagnation’ effect.


    Nnd Lee picked up the pendant from the ground and tied it to himself.


    The System sent a prompt, reminding him that he was under the ‘Soul Stagnation’ effect and had temporarily lost his Spell Casting Ability.


    “You see, Selena. Even if I have lost my Spell Casting Ability, this magic ess meter can still operate normally.”
