The air in the forging room is filled with the anxious atmosphere caused by the collision of metal and magic.
Ian stood in front of the workbench, holding a sphere emitting soft white light in his hand. This was not an ordinary gem, but a highly compressed and solidified miniature Subspace.
"Morgana, start injecting magic power."
"As you command, Master."
As the command was given, the magic conduit on the ground lit up, and the blue energy flow poured into the white sphere like all rivers returning to the sea. This process lasted for three full hours, until the magic concentration inside the sphere reached a critical point.
Ian took a deep breath, raised his right hand, and drew an extremely complex [Fireball] rune model in Void.
"Fusion."
Under the guidance of his spirit Divine Power, the rune model slowly submerged into the white sphere, perfectly fitting into its internal spatial structure.
Next comes the final step - carrier connection.
Ian brought the sphere close to a fine steel sword on the table. Under the influence of Alchemy, the sphere merged into the sword's hilt like water dripping into the sea.
"Building energy circuits."
Click!
Before he finished speaking, the energy veins that were being generated on the sword suddenly collapsed, and cracks instantly covered the sword like a spider web.
"It still doesn't work..."
Ian looked at the long sword that had turned into scrap metal and frowned, "The physical structure of ordinary metal is too fragile and cannot withstand the Subspace level of energy transmission."
It's like trying to use a thin straw to convey a torrent of Three Gorges Dam, and the result will only be a burst pipe.
"Morgana, call all the metal materials in the inventory. From the brittle pig iron to the hardest Orichalcum, I want to conduct a full spectrum test."
"Yes, Master. But this will take a lot of time."
"Then work overtime."
In the next seven days, Ian locked himself in the forging room. Except for occasionally creating a clone body to chat with Olivia, his main body hardly slept a wink.
The first one breaks. The tenth one melts. The one hundredth one explodes.
It wasn't until the 234th sword, when Ian used a special alloy called "Star Iron", that a miracle happened.
When the white sphere was integrated into the hilt of the sword, no cracks appeared on the sword, but a layer of luminous lines pulsating like blood vessels emerged. That was proof of the perfect resonance between Subspace energy and the material carrier.
"Successful."
Ian Holding the hilt of the sword, not only did it not feel heavy, but it felt as if the sword was alive.
He waved his sword lightly.
Boom--!!!
A huge fireball with a diameter of more than a hundred meters roared out and instantly engulfed the test range ahead. The terrifying high temperature even distorted the air.
"Incredible..."
Ian looked at the sword in his hand, a hint of fanaticism flashed in his eyes, "According to the conventional enchantment, this sword can at most fire a fireball as big as a basin. But now, it directly uses the massive magic power stored in Subspace, and its power has been increased by a full twenty times!"
This is the horror of [Core Inscription] technology.
It no longer carves runes on the surface of the object, but directly inserts a fully charged "micro-dimension" into the interior of the object.
It's like attaching a nuclear reactor battery to a pistol.
Not only is it powerful, but more importantly, it is safe and confidential.
In the past, as long as the enemy obtained the enchanted equipment and did a little research, they could decipher the rune circuits on it.
But now, the core technology is blocked inside Subspace. Unless the enemy's civilization level is high enough to analyze and invade Dimensional Space at will, this sword is an unbreakable black box for them.
Even Ian has a self-destruct program inside. Once a brute force attack is detected, Subspace will collapse directly.
Speaking of collapse...
Ian looked at the sword in his hand, and a crazier and darker idea suddenly appeared in his mind.
"What if... I used this technology not just to make weapons, but to make bombs?"
Just send this sword, or similar accessories, disguised as an ordinary gift to the core city of the hostile civilization.
Once detonated.
The space Shockwave released by the collapse of Subspace, coupled with the massive magic power stored inside (it can even be stuffed with antimatter or Void Energy), is powerful enough to flatten a planet in an instant, or even destroy a small star system.
This is a real dimensionality reduction blow.
It is the ultimate trump card for the Arcane Empire to conquer Multiverse in the future and deter potential enemies.
"Although the method is a bit despicable, as a ruler, you must have such a bargaining chip in your hand that can tip the table."
Ian put away the long sword, his eyes became deep and cold.
"In addition to being used as a weapon, this technology has another huge potential - magic storage."
Since mastering the Subspace technology, Ian has been trying to connect this space directly to his soul, so that he can have the magic reserve of Infinity.
Just like Sorcerer Supreme in Marvel borrows the energy of dimension Demon Gods.
Unfortunately, his body and soul are currently unable to withstand the violent sense of space tearing. All in vivo experiments have ended in failure.
"It seems that until we find a more perfect 'soul-space' interface, we can only make do with this plug-in equipment."
Although it is a bit regretful, this is already a huge breakthrough.
Ian uploaded all the data from this experiment to Morgana and asked her to continue the stress test of materials science.
After doing all this, he did not rest.
He turned around and walked towards World Gate located in the center of the dimension.
"The technical reserves are enough. I have one last thing to do before leaving this world."
Ian stroked the cold frame of World Gate, Blink's eyes glowed with ambition.
"That is to do a comprehensive system upgrade for this door."
