Chapter 2726: New Breakthrough in Magic Glue Material, Water Resistance Up! Up!

Returning to the Tower of Time, Xia Duo explained to Niya the true reason for this outing, regarding the magical treasures of the Eastern World and matters related to the application of Order Force.

At the end, he told Niya, "Order Force is very likely the breakthrough power to solve the various current difficulties. Now, the door to the application of Order Force has opened a crack for me, and I will spend more time researching it next."

Niya had no objections to this; she was also very interested in this brand-new power system of Order Force and looked forward to what kind of experience it would be once this power was developed, but at the same time, she also reminded Xia Duo:

"Then what about those research projects you just started?"

"Aren't those Quasi-High Mages already being trained? Many routine experiments and operations can be handed over to them. I only need to keep hold of the direction and progress, and pay attention occasionally; it won't delay things too much."

Regarding how to organize and manage team research, Xia Duo had already learned enough experience at the Red Heart Alliance.

In fact, he was preparing to roll out far more projects than there were now. If he had to personally inquire about every single thing, he would have nothing else to do in the future, just lingering in the trivialities of one project!

If it weren't for the fact that Order Force is very special, that only a Lord of Order can construct an Order Cycle, and that for the time being only a Lord of Order can perceive and drive Order Force, he would actually prefer to assemble a specialized team to research this thing.

But for now, he could only do it alone.

Next, if he could make a breakthrough in the application of Order Force, perhaps he could let other people within the scope of Order also participate in the research. Only then would Order Force be considered a normal research field.

"Judging from the current analysis, at least eight or nine years should be no problem."

Thinking of this, Xia Shao could not help but feel a trace of sympathy in his gaze toward Yi Nu Wei Qi; that guy still didn't know what kind of bottomless pit he had fallen into!

"Then can the Elder deduce an approximate harmless period?"

"Have the toxicology tests been done?"

"Really?"

Yi Nu Wei Qi brought Xia Shao to one end of the laboratory bench, or perhaps "workstation" was more descriptive. In order to accommodate more experimental personnel to conduct experiments simultaneously, Yi Nu Wei Qi had divided the laboratory bench into multiple workstations.

To this, Yi Nu Wei Qi's answer was—

A normal research field with unlimited prospects!

Saying this, Xia Shao sent a Sending directly to Yatewude, as naturally as making a phone call on Earth. Very soon, before Yatewude arrived, the reply had already arrived:

If there really could be a stable period of eight or nine years, then it would definitely be ready for practical use. What he had originally thought was that as long as there was a stable period of four or five years, it would be used.

Xia Shao was somewhat incredulous; it had only been a few days, and there was a new discovery again, so he hurriedly asked for details, "How exactly did you all manage to do it?"

Now that it could be even longer, that was of course even better.

Regarding Yi Nu Wei Qi's approach of recruiting ordinary territory residents, Xia Shao actually didn't think there was anything wrong with it; instead, he considered it a kind of innovation. At present, the Territory indeed lacked this kind of work that could accommodate both ordinary people and Spellcasters.

Following Yi Nu Wei Qi's introduction, Xia Shao noticed the two samples on the laboratory bench. Soaking was the most basic, let alone that for now; the pressure test was to plug both ends of a water-filled pipe and then apply pressure to it.

"We simplified the experimental process, and with nearly a hundred auxiliary personnel recruited from the Territory, it's not strange to produce results; it would be strange if we didn't!"

The reconstruction project of Linshui Village was imminent, and with so many workers organized, other materials had also been prepared long ago; all that was missing was the Water-Resistant Magic Glue material from Yi Nu Wei Qi's side.

Although Xia Shao himself was very clear that haste makes waste, every time he came to the ground Territory, he could not avoid making a trip to the Magic Glue Research Center.

"Yes, President, we have long been prepared!"

Because later on, this kind of material might be used to make water supply pipes for drinking water, and it was by no means just for drainage pipes. If it were toxic, that would obviously be inappropriate.

"Let's go, let's go see the new material!"

Of course, if Yi Nu Wei Qi had such good luck every time, then Xia Shao would definitely treat him like a treasure and supply him, and in the future, whenever he encountered things that required luck, he could let him take the lead.

This time, he had already prepared himself to be disappointed again, but Yi Nu Wei Qi gave him a surprise—

Those experiments that relied more on luck—if the luck was good, one could get results with a casual experiment; if the luck was bad, one might not be able to produce any results for years or decades.

If one kept recruiting people, it might be counterproductive.

Such an optimistic answer made Xia Shao feel a bit dazed. In his cognition, materials science had always been a huge bottomless pit; in fact, it was not just new material research, but also included research related to the 【Element-Matter】 equation.

The sun was bright and beautiful. Xia Shao arrived at the ground Territory early to check the progress of the Magic Glue Research Center; this had already become something he had to do every day recently.

Saying this, Yi Nu Wei Qi led Xia Shao into a small general Laboratory within the Level 2 Laboratory. Although it was called small, at this moment it was also concentrated with a dozen or so experimental personnel.

"President, please look. This is a section of water pipe we made using the new material. It had already been soaking in water before the President arrived. The one next to it is the pressure test; it remains very stable under high pressure and has not been eroded by water."

The next day.

"After detailed testing, this new material will not cause pollution to purified water, but whether it will leach harmful substances during the long-term water erosion process, that cannot be guaranteed."

"When the new material was just developed, a copy was sent to Elder Yatewude. Now, calculating the time, the toxicology test should have been completed."

Before, the first time he came to visit, he had personally handled a section of water pipe; it had excess elasticity but severely insufficient water resistance. But this kind now, at least what he was seeing now was already very close to the material he wanted!

……

Of course, if he recruited new Mages from the Tower of Time, it might be even better, but the Magic Glue Research Center had only been established for a short time, and many people were still watching from the sidelines!

But it just so happened that Magic Glue itself was acidic; even after acid-removal treatment, it might not be harmless to the human body, so this required professional toxicology testing.

This question was of course not about the production details of the Water-Resistant Magic Glue material, but the research and development process. Regarding this, Yi Nu Wei Qi's explanation was—

"President, the latest discovery: we added Iron Wu De charcoal to the stabilizer, and combined it with Sulfur to make a Magic Glue material with excellent water resistance!"

It was just a pity that a person could have luck once, but it was impossible to always be lucky.

The simplified process he mentioned earlier was actually concentrating all the links involving Spellcasting into one place, and the rest could be operated by territory residents who had undergone simple training.

"Is the Elder certain?" Xia Shao asked again.

Compared to the other large general Laboratory that accommodated nearly a hundred people, this place was still relatively more spacious.

Perhaps later there would be no need to move the Magic Glue Research Center to the Floating City; just leaving it in the Territory would be fine, and it would also be convenient for the territory residents to commute.

"Is that so? Let me ask him."
