Chapter 228: Chapter 3: Invitation and Railgun

After declining a dinner invitation from a young girl midway, Anvis returned to his residence alone.

As a player, Xia Ye Yinghuo currently couldn’t enter Pamir Academy, and while Anvis didn’t restrict her freedom, he had left her to roam free in the Empire Capital six months ago.

A mature royal should know to trigger rare tasks on their own outside.

And based on his observations, when Xia Ye Yinghuo logged off, Lorna, if outside, would similarly disappear.

When asked where Lorna went, she couldn’t give a clear answer herself. During the process, she wasn’t aware of anything; the recorder she carried showed no changes, as if she were in a state of temporal freeze.

After reaching the gate of his residence, Anvis suddenly noticed that the wooden fence gate had sprouted new shoots.

Among those fresh green leaves, a pale blue rose bud, as big as a fist, gently swayed towards him.

Anvis extended a finger and lightly touched the surface of the bud.

Accompanied by a mysterious pleasant scent, the pale blue rose silently bloomed. Three different-looking letters emerged from between those delicate overlapping petals.

Removing the three amassed letters from the Magic mailbox, Anvis returned indoors.

One was a letter from his family, the other two were invitations.

The first invitation was to a noble’s ball, while the second was a rare invitation from Harvey to a Dream Demon party.

The appearance of the Dream Demon resembled the Enchanting Demon Anvis knew from his previous life.

However, they are creatures of the Dream Realm, existing only in dreams, feeding on the spirit of creatures in the real world.

Cute, mature, innocent, charming... various male/female Dream Demons await your arrival in the pink dreamscape.

Since everything happens in the Dream Realm, the Dream Demon party can satisfy all your secret desires, no matter how unspeakable.

The price is to provide some spirit to the poor, constantly hungry Dream Demons as a form of return and nourishment.

Having looked over it, Anvis skillfully turned the first invitation into ice dust and dispersed it.

Then, he opened the family letter.

It was still written by the butler, though the content was not much special.

’Miss Fiona will enroll during Stove Fire Month, the Duke hopes you will provide guidance on her behavior.’

’Due to the influx of outsiders, the number of security incidents in Karlars City has risen to 1043% of what it was six months ago, but the number of major criminal cases has fallen to 12% of what it was prior.’

’The outer city of Karlars is undergoing further expansion, with the guard troops, construction teams, etc., primarily made up of outsiders.’

’Lord Evan has invented a type of portable Magic Tentacles armor that can be equipped in a discreet seed form, highly sought after by noblewomen.’

...

Right, considering the time, it’s almost the next batch of new students’ enrollment.

Glancing at the operating Magic Moon Phase Instrument, the Mithril made Silver Moon Sevin has now moved to the end of the month.

Packing up the letters, Anvis slowly walked towards the direction of the underground laboratory.

Unwittingly, his time of enrollment was also about to complete a year.

Despite having personally stopped the Divine Descent of the Old Gods, significantly raising Curse Ore prices across the continent, and planting insiders in high positions within the strongest force, the Holy Radiance Church Court.

But he was still just an ordinary yet handsome new student of Pamir Academy, who hasn’t had his coming-of-age ceremony yet and is currently only at Third Rank.

Over the last six months, apart from regular studies in Mysticism, he also accomplished several minor tasks.

Firstly, based on the process of the island nuclear test, he reoptimized the outer structure of the Magic Nuclear Weapon and added a miniature Anti-magic Field generator.

This could effectively extend the reaction time, thereby making the utilization rate of the raw materials much higher.

Secondly, due to the trade of the Curse Flying Dragon Egg, he recovered a significant amount of Gold Coins and resources, gradually offsetting the family resource quota that he had pre-emptively allocated due to the purchase of the Curse Ore mines.

In these trades, he could receive thirty percent of the total profits.

The Olivendi Chamber of Commerce does not solely accept Gold Coins. Some small kingdoms in the remote areas of the Yiter Federation often pay in hard assets like Magic Metal Ore, Demon Crystals, High Rank Magic Beast Materials, and rare Alchemy materials.

This is beneficial for both parties; for the small kingdoms to convert their goods into Gold Coins, they would likewise go through various exploitations, so it’s better to barter directly.

Once the Olivendi Chamber of Commerce transports these goods back to the Empire, it essentially earns a substantial arbitrage profit.

In a world where space items exist, large-scale bartering isn’t troubled by transportation difficulties.

Third, referencing the principles of electromagnetic weapons from his previous life on Blue Star, he developed a special Magic Weapon.

— Force Field Railgun

"Welcome, esteemed Manager Anvis,"

the sweet voice of Mithril rang out.

Last month, it underwent a version upgrade, and according to the family, it gained more intelligence and also became more memory-intensive.

In the center of the laboratory, a huge metallic construction that fused mysticism with a sense of technology appeared in Anvis’ field of vision.

The entire weapon, resembling a long, matte metallic tube, was mounted on a giant rotatable hemisphere metal base and its exterior was engraved with Strong Gravitational Field Arrays used to attract the bullets inside.

The length of the metallic tube was set at 2.5 meters, with normal space-time transport rings provided by Orbins fixed at both ends of the tube.

When operational, due to the space-time rings distorting normal space, a closed space would form inside the tube, and it would be completely vacuumed.

The specially made Magic Metal bullet, suspended inside, would be propelled through the transport ring at the head of the metal tube into the rear end of the tube, and then accelerated again.

Theoretically speaking, as long as the energy is sufficient, the power of the Force Field Railgun has no limit.

However, in reality, due to the limitations of the materials for inscriptions and the space-time transport rings themselves, after conducting his secret tests, this device could only withstand a Seventh Rank ultra-high-frequency instant Magic Power output at most.

The initial speed of the specially made bullet was accelerated to nearly one hundred kilometers per second, penetrating a granitic mountain tens of meters high—its instantaneous destructive power almost reaching the strength of an Eighth Rank Single-target Spell.

However, to achieve such power, it must be matched with a corresponding large Elemental Pool, which made its flexibility very low, and it had to be used in conjunction with large fortresses.

Up to this step in his research, Anvis had also encountered a bottleneck. With the technology he currently mastered, he was no longer able to further enhance the power of the Railgun.

Looking at the experimental Railgun, he passed by its side and entered into a deeper room in the laboratory, an anti-magic alloy tranquility chamber.

Activating the outer multi-layer High Rank isolation Array, Anvis lifted the \[Dark Side of the Moon\] state and ’ignited’ a lamp of Amis Dust with his spiritual power.

An odd, dreamy, ethereal glow filled the room, rapidly increasing the activity of spiritual power, which began to stir eagerly.

Taking out a large piece of Radiant Crystal shimmering with faint golden starlight, Anvis held it in his hand, calmly floating at about one meter above the ground.
