The Economics of Prophecy

"But wait, magic itself is not a means of attack."

Mathier points it out. Yes, magic does not interact with ordinary matter. Earlier I dared, frightened, but I exposed myself to the laser without sheltering my fingers, but I felt nothing.

The destructive power of a broken castle hammer is the mass of the hammer itself and the purely physical thing of rotation. Spirulitis deals damage by turning magic into high-pressure, high-temperature air.

Magic itself cannot be used as a damage source. That is the first problem. But then...

I saw Alfina.

"The other person is qualitative, so to speak. It has organs that interact with magic in the body, at least with certain magic powers. The first candidate is the nervous system."

There are substances that interact under certain conditions with imperial geothermal zones, magic catalysts, and certain magic powers. It's a microwave, by analogy. Microwaves use wavelengths of electromagnetic waves, or light, that are efficiently absorbed by the electrons of water molecules.

Selectively delivering energy, in this case heat, to water molecules with light. The same excitement of the experiment I just did and what I'm doing.

Electromagnetic wave Hikari energizes electrons in water molecules. So moisture-free objects don't warm up in the microwave. It's the same as just passing magic on normal matter.

I don't expect substances that interact with magic like foods that warm up in the microwave to be present in large quantities in the body of demonic worms.

But that demon worm is far more adaptive to magic than grated demon wolves, etc. No matter how strong the qualities are in the case of humans, there is no obstacle to life activities without magic.

But the demon worm cannot support or breathe without magic. It relied heavily on magic over the course of a long evolution. And it evolved to create a thunderbolt. It is my hypothesis that the nervous system of the demonic worm is connected to the skillful handling of magic.

In addition, the laser concentrates extremely high energy. In other words, if even trace amounts of objects interact, the result is a great effect.

"There should be a certain amount of substances in the nerves of the demonic worm that interact with magic. If you aim at that organ, you can do this."

I lifted a sensory demon plate coated with substances that reacted to magic. This is the result of an excessive amount of magic being injected into the catalyst of the sensory demon board that receives magic.

Besides, the target is an insect. And I'm flying for what's best for you. One of the basic directions that determines the structure of the animal's body is the DV axis, the dorsal belly, not the domestic violence, and the ventral axis.

"Nerves. Aim especially at the central nerves. It's a spine, in human terms. Hey, look at this."

I moved in front of the tablet. Insects and vertebrates like us differ greatly in structure from dorsal abdominal axis and back to belly.

I did my hand on my left chest first.

"First of all, our bodies have a heart on the side closest to our bellies. An esophagus, or gastrointestinal tract, pierces the center of the body behind it. And on the most dorsal side is the spine, or central nerve"

I wrote on the tablet.

"Insects also have hearts, digestive tracts, and central nerves. But insects are in reverse order. I have the heart on my back the most. Next up is the digestive tract. And it's called nerves on the most abdominal side."

Abdominal dorsal

Human: Cardiac Gastrointestinal Central Nerve

Bugs: Neuroegastrointestinal Heart

If you ask me, insects are the kind of system that humans are bridging. Well, only the brain is moving up the gastrointestinal tract.

By the way, this back-to-belly structure is determined by a certain gene. In mammals and insects, the same gene is expressed reversed in the dorsal abdomen. The very mechanism that makes the central nerve is the same, only the axis is reversed.

In other words, the common ancestors of the vastly remote animal lineage - vertebrates and insects - had a basic system: the heart, the digestive tract and the central nerve along the dorsal abdominal axis. And after the vertebrate ancestors and the insect ancestors broke up, one of them bridged.

I don't know which was the original form. Animals like older jellyfish have no central nerves or hearts.

"In other words, the Devil Bug flies over here exposed to a weak spine. That's not what I meant."

"Correct. Insect nerves are longitudinally ladder shaped. I mean, if you don't do the Devil's Body left or right with the laser, it's bound to hit you."

It's like cutting off the spinal cord, belly, with laser females. Insect nerves are separated into many ganglia for considerable control every corporeal ganglion. When a human damages his spine, he stops moving from there down. But in the case of insects, one of the symphysis may just go crazy. But why don't you fly?

At the very least, it could prevent that thunderbolt that goes back in the body rhythm.

"It needs to be verified. Especially as to which magic wavelength laser works. To do this, use the eggs, embryos or larvae found in the Empire."

Hit the magic wavelength to find out if the nervous system absorbs magic as expected. In short, it's Lentgen. Craig tells me that the eggs at the magic vent that Craig and the others found in the eastern part of the Empire were destroyed, but they remain under strict surveillance, leaving some as samples.

"You can break through the wall of magic on the surface and attack the nerves just inside it. I feel like I can go."

Maitille, who raised the question, is also nodding.

"Another problem is resources. This method doesn't just consume magic."

I moved on to another issue.

"Isn't magic efficient? You don't go through circuits, you don't convert magic to expensive."

Noel said.

"Yes, it's just that if you generate magic in this way, the Demon Crystal loses its magic and can't be refilled."

Incidentally, in the case of semiconductor lasers, multiply the voltage and keep moving the electrons that hit the magic vegetable. In other words, normal demonic crystals are supplied with demonic vegetables, and from negative demonic crystals, demonic vegetables are extracted.

It may also be possible to create such a circulation of magic vegetables, but unlike the laser that was almost made, it would be difficult in time. Even if you do it, it's a future assumption.

By the way, normally empty crimson demon crystals have been confirmed to be able to be filled with purple magic. Of course, I tried it with purple magic made using positive and negative demonic crystals.

Well, maybe now I should have honestly asked Alfina to cooperate. I was worried about something I was worried about.

"I see the amount of deep red demon crystals is a dozen of ordinary red demon crystals."

"You have to use it a lot to generate purple magic to attract demon bugs."

Mathier and Alfina said. Alfina only speaks when she is needed, saying it is a professional story. How brilliant is this......

And not if you're bragging about your partner. As an unreliable partner who is bottoming up with previous life knowledge, I need to at least explain it well with my knowledge of borrowing.

"In the future, if a purple magic vent can emerge to create a deep red magic crystal filling demon furnace, the deep red magic can be refilled. But you can't do that if you're throwing away deep red demon crystals as a laser source."

"I see. So this is the format."

Noel saw the prototype.

"The other is crimson magic enough, no, it's a suitable possibility. The demon worm undergoes purple magic at its core and brings a crimson magic to its body. It would be the magic of crimson that you are using. Then the nerves I just mentioned are also likely to be using a substance that interacts with crimson magic, in our words, a magic catalyst."

"... you throw away red demon crystals inspired in pure form with refillable deep red demon crystals. Negative demon crystals are all over the empire. from the ground to exposed locations because they are not mined."

Resources are depleted from the side close to the human living area. So the negative demonic crystals that were deemed unnecessary should remain in a convenient place for transport.

"How's it going?"

I asked the magic squad. The three of them looked at each other.

".................. yeah. This is the only way. I'd like to ask the laser how the demon worm works."

"Right. I can hope for this. By the way, this laser can also be applied to radar..."

Mathier and Fulsey thrive.

"What about the procedure for creating a new magic wand? Make something new, no matter how simple it is."

I told Noel to block the two likely to go in the direction of the day after tomorrow. It would be a consciousness that is responsible for the part directly connected to production. Really dependable.

"Right. We need to build prototypes from this principle model and improve them to forms that can be mass produced."

Noel is right. Whether or not we will make it by the raid of a herd of demonic worms. Extremely demanding. Moreover, that is not the only device that has to be produced.

"The part of the barrel of the new magic wand is Noel, and I'd like to ask Mayteel for a light source cartridge with two different demonic crystals attached to it. The curator would like to continue to give top priority to improving the purple magic generator, the antenna of the magic vent and the finish of the radar against demonic worms. Alfina will need the help of the curator, as always."

I'll tell them to share. Makes Fulsey look a little bored. You know it's the most important role, right?

"The cylinder is magic guided silver, given the mass production of magic reflection catalysts..."

"Noel, can't you magically open and close the laser opening?

"... if you tangle some kind of magic circuit switch in the cylinder"

"Ask Non about the magic catalyst used to reflect."

"Alfina, it's like a condition when that laser comes out..."

Everyone starts a hustle and bustle debate. Alfina also answers Mathier's questions beside Fulsey.

From here on out, I can't say anything without qualities.

Did you manage to play a role as a source of knowledge in your previous life?

And this was a bad time. I took the job in and confused it and lost sight of my priorities. You made the most flattering, most inexcusable mistake when ordinary people are busy.

I saw Alfina. I also came up with the idea of a laser, thanks to Alfina's concentration on the new weapon. Otherwise, I'd still be worried about yeah.

I'm the one who needs to do what Alfina's partner deserves.
