-

A system notification appeared before his eyes. Jiang Chen put down the book "Advanced Applications of Quantum Entanglement Effect in Inter-Starfield Communication" and exited the system library.

Although his attributes kept increasing, Jiang Chen's learning efficiency was also constantly improving with the help of his various specialties.

However, the further you go in the series, the more profound and complex the knowledge involved becomes.

Often, a single piece of knowledge involves multiple fields, making it somewhat difficult for even someone with Jiang Chen's thinking ability to learn.

Fortunately, the system library ensures that Jiang Chen will not encounter any "bottlenecks" in learning and mastering any knowledge. As long as he invests enough focus and time, he will eventually be able to master it.

However, the upgrade progress inevitably slowed down.

However, Jiang Chen was not in a hurry.

As long as you are still improving, it doesn't matter if the improvement is slow.

When his consciousness returned to reality, Jarvis had already prepared thousands of parts that needed to be enchanted with magic. Even the extraordinary materials needed to inscribe the constructs had been simply processed. He was just waiting for Jiang Chen to take action and complete the final steps.

Swish~!

Jiang Chen's figure disappeared from the base and appeared in the world inside the ring.

The process of creating a 'magical construct' is not complicated: prepare the reagents, inscribe the magic circle, and then activate it.

In most magical worlds, constructs are directly attached to people or mounts.

However, a few genius construct masters have figured out how to imbue weapons, armor, or other 'inanimate objects' with constructs.

Of course, this requires an additional energy supply and also places corresponding requirements on the 'bearing capacity' of the inanimate object itself.

Any construct will bring a corresponding burden to the user. If there is not enough 'bearing capacity', the consequence of forcibly activating the construct is that the user's life force will be drained and the user will die in pain.

If it is on an inanimate object, it will cause it to be damaged.

However, in the world of construct builders, there are sufficient means to test the 'bearing capacity' of a target.

Jiang Chen walked into the warehouse and looked at the thousands of different parts neatly arranged inside. He then began to activate his mental power.

It is not mental power, but the power of 'spirit' originating from the soul.

Although it also possesses a certain degree of ability to interfere with the material world, its effect is far less direct than that of telekinesis.

However, it excels even more in resonating with the primordial energy of heaven and earth.

"%……（&￥）"

A string of awkward words rang out from Jiang Chen's mouth, not belonging to any known language in the universe.

Even the 'system' of the language itself is different from any mainstream language in the universe.

As Jiang Chen spoke, the primordial energy of heaven and earth trembled faintly, as if the language itself involved some kind of 'rule' level of power, possessing the ability to directly mobilize primordial energy.

The mental energy fluctuates according to a certain pattern, communicating with the source energy while altering Jiang Chen's perception of the outside world.

A moment later, Jiang Chen opened his eyes.

Suddenly, strings of numbers appeared on the shelves.

89, 172, 654...

Each number corresponds to a different part.

Parts manufactured with the same structure and process will display completely identical numbers, without any 'error'.

At least, within the range that Jiang Chen can accurately perceive, there is no error.

"They all meet the requirements."

Jiang Chen nodded in satisfaction, his mental energy fluctuating rapidly, causing the world in his eyes to quickly return to its original state.

"Next, we need to prepare the reagents."

On a shelf in the corner of the warehouse, there are extraordinary materials that have already undergone preliminary processing.

Most of these extraordinary materials come from the bodies of some powerful beings, but a small portion are ores that have absorbed the primordial energy of the universe and possess certain unique properties.

However, after undergoing complex processing, it is difficult for the average person to identify the original origin of these materials unless they are professionals in this field.

"First, we'll make 'Wind Breath,' using 'Annihilation Wind Ore' powder and 'Giant Winged Beast' blood..."

Jiang Chen took down the materials one by one and went to the next room to begin further processing them.

These materials are, of course, different from the 'recipe' in the drawings provided by the system.

Once the realm of the extraordinary is involved, each world, due to its unique characteristics, will evolve extraordinary resources of different natures.

Even if a certain extraordinary resource looks the same in two different worlds, there will inevitably be some differences in the details.

However, any structure or other item can be replaced as long as the materials used meet a certain 'characteristic'.

Even if there are slight differences, these differences can be smoothed out or at least reduced to within the allowable range of error through fine-tuning in the material handling process.

The process of handling materials must be very careful and strictly follow the procedures. At specific times, one must use mental power and telekinesis to change a certain property of the material itself.

This process took Jiang Chen a very long time.

After a complex process, all the materials were reduced to a small bottle of bluish-green 'potion'.

If one's perception is strong enough, one can discover that this small bottle of 'potion' contains extremely surging wind-elemental energy fluctuations.

An SCV carrying a cylinder engraved with intricate patterns came to Jiang Chen, stood the cylinder upright, and placed it in front of him.

"Next, the reagents will be drawn into a magic circle according to a specific trajectory and then integrated into the parts..."

Jiang Chen took a deep breath, took out a pen-shaped tool, and put the bottle containing the magic reagent into it.

The next moment, a blue light suddenly emanated from Jiang Chen's body, indicating that he had unleashed his domain.

If there were a detector of level D or above here, it would be discovered that Jiang Chen's Wind Domain has already reached the level of the ninth level.

Furthermore, the surging power contained within the domain has already surpassed that of a normal nine-level domain.

Jiang Chen did not reach out, but instead used his domain and telekinesis to control the specially made 'magic pen' to carve a pattern on the metal cylinder in front of him.

The blue stripes were drawn from the tip of the pen, not very quickly.

It took Jiang Chen nearly five minutes to complete a line that was only a dozen centimeters long.

The extremely stringent requirements for precision are only a small part of the reason.

More importantly, during the drawing process, Jiang Chen had to continuously integrate his own spiritual power, and even the 'law' power contained in the domain, into the array diagram.

Only in this way can we ensure that the array will achieve the desired effect after it is completed.

There is no other life form within the ring world.

Jarvis knew that Jiang Chen was busy with a task that required great concentration, so he wouldn't disturb Jiang Chen, allowing him enough time and focus to complete the creation of the 'magical construct'.

Two hours later, the first part was completed.

"Jarvis, perform a test and see if the performance meets the requirements," Jiang Chen instructed.

"Yes, Master." Jarvis's voice rang out, and an SCV immediately came in, took the metal cylinder away, and sent it for testing.

Just a few minutes later, Jarvis provided feedback: "Master, after the enhancement, the energy transmission efficiency of the 'γ-III Conduit' has increased by 45%, the loss during transmission has decreased by 17%, and the physical parameters have not decreased. Theoretically, compared with the unenhanced parts, it is expected to increase the overall working efficiency of the [Space Furnace] by 3% to 4%."

After a slight pause, Jarvis added, "Of course, this is the total improvement after all the 'γ-III ducts' have been replaced."

The 'γ-III conduit' is a crucial component of the [Space Furnace], and there are a total of 21 of them.

Adding reinforcements to all 21 parts will increase the overall efficiency of the Space Furnace by 3%, which is quite significant.

This number matches Jiang Chen's calculations, which means that the process of enhancing the magical construct did not encounter any unexpected changes.

Jiang Chen nodded in satisfaction and said, "I understand. Let's get back to work."

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

More than half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

When you're immersed in work, time seems to pass much faster.

With the last component assembled, the [Space Furnace], which had cost Jiang Chen a huge sum of money, was finally completed.

However, Jiang Chen wasn't entirely sure whether he could achieve the desired results.

On the spaceship heading to the edge of the solar system, Jiang Chen showed a rare hint of tension.

The materials for ten Mixed Yuan Units are no small sum of money.

There's also the time and effort invested in the processing.

If it fails, it will be a huge loss for Jiang Chen.

After leaving Neptune's orbit, the spacecraft continued flying for about two more hours before coming to a stop.

At this distance, even if the Space Furnace were to explode violently, it wouldn't be enough to affect Earth.

"Jarvis, get to work," Jiang Chen said, and quickly left the spaceship.

First, he put away the spaceship, and then activated the World Ring.

The next moment, an oval-shaped object, as large as an asteroid, appeared in the starry sky.

The center of the elliptical structure is completely hollow, with huge pipes aligned with the center.

The outer perimeter is filled with 'rooms' arranged like a honeycomb, layer upon layer, which looks quite bizarre.

Jiang Chen entered one of the rooms, quickly passed through the passageway, and went through the many functional areas on the outer layer to arrive at the 'control room'.

"Self-test complete, no problems found. Shall we begin trial operation now?" Jarvis's red face appeared on the big screen.

"Let's begin." Jiang Chen felt a little nervous.

"Unit startup..."

Jarvis' voice rang out.

With a hum, a slight tremor began to appear inside the entire [Space Furnace].

However, the tremors subsided within just a few minutes.

"Protection layer activated..."

"Energy conversion module activated..."

"High-energy oscillator activated..."

"Second round of self-check begins... No abnormalities found, preparing to initiate space oscillation..."

Within minutes, the Space Furnace was operating at full power.

From the outside, a faint light emanated from the pipes pointing towards the central cavity.

The next moment, countless rays of light converged in the center of the void.

Boom~!

A violent tremor shook the space, and a huge rift was torn open.

The background of outer space is black, but some light can still be seen through distant starlight.

However, at this crack, there is the purest darkness, without any impurities.

A tremendous suction force appeared, seemingly about to devour everything around it.

Fortunately, this spatial rift was not large, only a little over two meters wide and a dozen meters long.

Furthermore, thanks to the self-healing capabilities of outer space, it is healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In just over ten seconds, the spatial rift disappeared.

Within a few seconds, countless probe-like devices frantically absorbed the enormous energy generated by the spatial tremors and, through a complex process, converted this massive energy into high-density energy blocks for storage.

"High-energy oscillator is cooling down..."

"Energy absorbed, in the process of conversion..."

"Transformation complete..."

Less than thirty seconds later, Jarvis quickly reported the results of this 'trial run': "Master, 15584547 level-5 energy blocks have been circulated. According to the pressure data of each module, if operating at maximum power, one cycle can be completed every 43 seconds!"

Fifteen million Level 5 Energy Blocks!

A look of surprise appeared in Jiang Chen's eyes.

The normal design of the [Space Furnace] is to perform a cycle once per minute.

The 'High-Energy Oscillator' tears through space, consuming approximately three million 'Level 5 Energy Blocks', with a single cycle generating around thirteen million in revenue.

After being enhanced by the magical construct, the 'cooldown period' of a single cycle is shorter, and more energy is gained.

Although the consumption remained the same, the efficiency of energy production increased by nearly two-thirds!

"Isn't a 43-second cycle too much of a strain on the equipment?" Jiang Chen hesitated slightly.

A 100% load is certainly not impossible, but it would drastically shorten the lifespan of the Space Furnace.

Jiang Chen couldn't guarantee whether the parts, especially those enhanced with 'magic constructs,' would still fully meet the requirements under extreme pressure.

“We can run a 45-second cycle, which adds two seconds of pressure reduction time. This will reduce the pressure on the core components by 11%, significantly extending their service life,” Jarvis suggested.

"Let's do it your way." Jiang Chen nodded.

Each cycle lasts for forty-five seconds, and after deducting costs, there is a 'profit' of around twelve million each time.

Of course, although the energy contained in a Level 5 energy block is almost the same as that of a cosmic crystal in terms of both quality and quantity, it is not a true cosmic crystal after all, and its value is somewhat reduced.

But no matter what, selling twelve million energy blocks for ten million cosmic crystals shouldn't be a problem.

Earning 10 million Cosmic Coins every 45 seconds adds up to 7 trillion, or seven Hunyuan Units, over a year!

The cost of ten Mixed Yuan Units can be recovered in a little over a year, and the rest is pure profit!

This speed at which they make money is far more terrifying than a money printing machine!

After a quick calculation, Jiang Chen was immediately overjoyed.

As of the scheduled update time, the average number of subscribers was 140+. The results were much lower than expected, but since I've already made my promise, I'll continue to update frequently.

Let's say the bonus chapters average 200 subscriptions per day, which means two extra chapters. That's all for now. The next bonus chapter milestone is 300 subscriptions per day.
