Chapter 17
After a deal,
Loya got all the materials he needed, and left the Lucky Business Guild with Erza, feeling satisfied. He returned the gold card to Makarov.
When Makarov saw the amount on the gold card, his eyes almost popped out, and he looked at Loya in disbelief and trembled.
"You…you…you spent it all? Thirty million J was all spent?"
"What did you spend all of it on?"
Loya scratched his ear with his pinky finger, flicked his fingernails, and said casually,
"Isn't there still some left? And I didn't spend your money carelessly. I used it all on buying materials. You shouldn't bother me for such a small amount of money, right?"
Alas.
After all, he is still a child. He couldn't suppress his desire for revenge.
Loya couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
There was no way.
He admitted that he was just a child~ He promised Erza not to use Makarov's gold card for meals, but it didn't mean he wouldn't spend it all.
Even if he bought too much materials, he could save them for later use. It would be a waste if he didn't spend them.
"You don't need that much."
Makarov's forehead was throbbing with veins.
That's 30 million J! A full 30 million J!
He had worked so hard to save it for a long time!
According to his estimate and plan, supporting a space magic device would cost at most 10 million J, but now even this little money has become a problem for food.
However, no matter how angry Makarov was, there was nothing he could do.
Before leaving, he made a big promise and promised Roya to fully support him. Once you say something, you can't go back on it. If you do this, he will lose all his face.
Makarov regretted it very much.
If he had known that he shouldn't have provoked Roya in the first place, it was too late to say anything now.
"You must make a space magic device for me, or I'll beat you up."
With deep dissatisfaction, Makarov turned around and left with Jinka.
He was afraid that if he looked at Luoya for one more second, he would not be able to resist and attack.
Seeing this, Luoya did not take Makarov's threat seriously, and the smile on his face even deepened.
In fact, he was very likely to make a space magic device, and its value would exceed 30 million J. Makarov would still make money overall, but he was happy to see him being defeated.
After all, who told Makarov to always bully him with his strength and status? Would he still be himself if he didn't retaliate?
With a happy mood, Luoya walked towards the Room of Requests in the underground library and started a new round of research.
"Now that we have the materials, we can continue the experiment."
"The mystery of space is really exciting."
A silver light flashed, and a silver-white block with a smooth surface and glittering light appeared.
Magic mithril is a relatively rare magic material. It has a moderate texture. Although it does not have magic power, it has extremely strong magic compatibility and stability.
An ordinary palm-sized piece of magic mithril costs at least 700,000 J, which is equivalent to the income of an ordinary magician in two or three months. The cost is expensive and ordinary magicians cannot afford it.
Before this, Loya used magic stones worth 10,000 J as magic containers.
If it were not for Makarov's extremely"generous" support, Loya would not be willing to buy it.
However, even so, with large purchases, gold card discounts, and Loya's special status, one piece costs 50 J, and 30 million J can only be exchanged for 60 pieces of magic mithril.
Looking at these 60 pieces of mithril, Loya couldn't suppress his excitement. He released his telekinesis to absorb the magic crystal, just ready to... Prepare for a big effort.
Loya released the fire magic and remelted the magic mithril into a shape that was almost the same as a ring, which was convenient to carry.
After the magic mithril was shaped, he took out the quill pen and began the most critical step of drawing the magic circle.
Loya has failed hundreds of times at this step.
Now he can only pin his hopes on the problem of materials.
Huh!
Take a deep breath and let your mind settle down completely.
The magic power emerged and condensed at the tip of the pen, gently leaving a floating light spot in the air, which then stretched and meandered, drawing one wonderful pattern after another.
At the moment the pattern was formed, Loya quickly began to draw the second one.
Based on the previous failure, Loya has become more and more proficient in drawing space magic circles.
From beginning to end, there was no pause at all, and it was even getting faster and faster.
Invisibly, his mastery of space magic has also improved. It increased slowly, and soon the space magic circle was drawn.
However, after drawing it, Loya did not stop, and continued to draw the magic circle. This time the magic circle was different from the space magic circle. It was a picture of modeling magic.
The combination of space magic and modeling magic was a sudden idea of Loya.
In previous attempts, Loya found that space magic was stable due to its spatial characteristics, but it also had a hint of instability.
This instability lies in the fluctuations generated when opening up new space.
This fluctuation is extremely destructive, which is why the magic stone cannot bear it.
For this reason, Loya thought of modeling magic.
Modeling magic uses magic power to create specific objects, and changes them into various shapes according to the caster's own wishes. The changes are endless, just like Gray's master Ulu. As the saying goes, it is one of the most free and can best show the character of the magician.
Through the underground library and other companions, Loya mastered the modeling magic of various attributes such as fire, ice, wood, and earth. His understanding of modeling magic is far beyond that of most modeling magicians, and he truly mastered the essence of the word"modeling".
So, Loya thought that since other objects can be modeled, then whether space can also be modeled.
Space has a shape, otherwise there is no such thing as opening up space.
If the fluctuation of opening up space can be limited by the control of modeling magic, then it is possible to greatly increase the probability of success.
So Loya tried it, and the result was better than he imagined.
There was no repulsion effect in the superposition process of the space magic circle and the modeling magic circle, and it even stabilized the stability of the space magic circle to a great extent.
At the moment of drawing, the ring made of magic mithril did not have any cracks!
Injecting magic, the magic circle just drawn was instantly activated, and a space of about ten cubic meters appeared.
Ten cubic meters of space is not large.
Compared with the space opened by Loya himself, it is even too small and cannot be compared with it.
But the meaning it represents is completely different.
He succeeded.
The fusion of space magic and modeling magic!
And it succeeded in one go!
The corners of Luo Ya's mouth could not help but slightly rise.
Taking this opportunity, he saw the future development direction of space magic. If it is improved to the extreme, it will be of great benefit to him at present.
Thinking of this, Luo Ya continued to try.
Although he succeeded, it did not mean that his curiosity was satisfied.
He can now create ten cubic meters, so is it possible to create twenty cubic meters, thirty cubic meters... or even hundreds or three thousand? There has never been an end to the magic road.
There are only the mountains that have been crossed!
