Chapter 92, Panel, New Equipment

Time flies, and half a year has passed since the exchange student experience. During this time, apart from returning to Bo City to witness Yu Ang's execution, Chen Hao has basically not caused any more trouble. (I'll write a side story later.)
Aside from retaliating against Lu Nian's military region, the Imperial Capital Academy did not take its anger out on the Pearl Academy.

The storm subsided, but for Chen Hao, the effects were only just beginning to appear.

Because of his intervention, Mo Fan failed to obtain the Bloodstone and therefore would not awaken the Demonic type. This means that the plot has begun to deviate from its original course.

The pros and cons haven't fully surfaced yet, but the advantages are already evident: Mo Fan's cultivation is improving significantly faster.

Both his lightning and fire elemental skills have broken through to the third level of the intermediate rank, while his shadow and summoning skills have reached the second level of the intermediate rank. Even his contracted beast has recently acquired a Mind Bird from somewhere, with extremely pure bloodline and rumored to have the potential to become a commander. The protagonist's aura is evident.

During this time, he has also been actively saving money, seemingly preparing to purchase the Star River Vein ahead of schedule. Judging from this pace, Chen Hao believes that Mo Fan is very likely to reach the advanced stage before the catastrophe in the ancient capital.

Of course, losing the demonic element also means losing that trump card that allowed him to turn the tide time and time again in desperate situations. He will likely not be able to withstand any of the various tribulations he faces in the future.

However, Chen Hao didn't care. At worst, he could just give him another Bloodstone later; he already had two anyway.

"System, open the panel!"

This cultivation speed, compared to some fanfiction protagonists who drain the Three-Step Tower dry, is indeed not amazing. But if placed in the entire magical world, even the top native geniuses would need a combination of abundant resources, talent, and hard work to reach this level.

Chen Hao didn't actually have any overpowered cheat codes; the system's secret techniques only increased his efficiency by about 30%. And the resources he used were basically the same as—or even less—than those of the National Academy students.

Moreover, he is not a cultivation fanatic; he simply sleeps at fixed times each day instead of cultivating. The fact that he can achieve this level of efficiency is already due to the system's secret techniques.

With nearly a year to go before the next National Games, Chen Hao estimated that he could raise both of his majors to the advanced level before then, and his life level would steadily advance to the commander level.

Of course, he has not yet decided whether to participate.

Ultimately, the resources for the National Games are limited, yet the entry requirements are extremely high, and the competition is fierce. Without the need for fame, it's not a must-attend event for him. With the Hongsheng Forging Workshop as a money-printing machine, coupled with Zhao Manyan's connections, Chen Hao can already purchase most magical resources; he doesn't need to be like Mo Fan, trying to take advantage of every opportunity.

……

Hongsheng Forging Workshop has not been idle in the past six months.

They launched several new products, two of which are particularly noteworthy—

First item: Magic Heat Vision Glasses.

That's right, it's a thermal imaging device—but not through electronic signals, it uses magical structures to create images!

In this world where demons are extremely sensitive to electrical signals, traditional technological equipment is largely difficult to popularize. Thermal imaging devices, as powerful battlefield support tools, should have been of great use, but they have never been truly applied in the right way.

In fact, the principle has long been public knowledge, but no one is willing to invest time and energy in this kind of auxiliary equipment that seems to have little combat power.

After all, the natives didn't understand; they never imagined that a thing that could detect heat could actually see through all hidden enemies!
Real-time thermal imaging is like having X-ray vision on the battlefield!
Stealthy? Lurking demon? Sorry, if you have a thermal reaction—you can't escape this scene!
Some people think that cold-blooded animals cannot generate heat?
ridiculous!

As long as it's not absolute zero—you have thermal radiation. Even the slightest bit will be visible under this lens.

This is the brilliance of technology—

It goes straight to the source.

The second item: a magical flying machine.

Unlike expensive winged magical artifacts, Hongsheng Forge focuses on the concept that everyone can fly, and it's economical and affordable.

This thing is less of a magical artifact and more of a technological exoskeleton. Essentially, it's a propeller backpack for individual soldiers, powered by magic stones to drive the rotors, and equipped with a simple control system to achieve flight.

It can easily exceed 100 km/h at normal speeds, with a top speed of nearly 300 km/h. Its maximum altitude is 2000 meters.

Although it doesn't have the high mobility and flexibility of Winged Magic Tools and Wind Wings, it is still an invaluable artifact for low- to mid-level mages.

It's just a bit more troublesome to wear, but compared to the benefits of flying, it's nothing.

In the future, Chen Hao plans to continue upgrading this technology and even develop jet-powered flying individual magical artifacts, until they surpass Wing Magic Artifacts!

……

Thermal goggles and flying machines are both magical artifacts with extremely complicated manufacturing processes, unlike throwing magical artifacts which are simple and straightforward. Even with Hongsheng Forging Workshop working at full capacity, they can only produce one per day at most.

Unfortunately, magical artifacts aren't mass-produced items; they're high-end handcrafted. Unless there's increased investment, production volume will remain the same forever.

Therefore, Chen Hao priced everything at ten million!

Compared to its features, this price is incredibly cheap.

Sometimes, low production volume isn't necessarily a bad thing; at least it prevents it from attracting the attention of big capitalists.

Of course, some things cannot be kept secret, such as aircraft. The principles behind them are there, and once people see the design, it's inevitable that someone will try to imitate it.

Chen Hao is currently figuring out how to resolve the patent issue.

Just like the definitions of orthodox magic and forbidden arts, these are all decided by the Magic Association. It's fine for you to use them yourself, but once you want to apply them to all of humanity, then the example of Feng Zhoulong is right before your eyes.

The Fusion Method is clearly meant to benefit humanity, yet the Asian Magic Association attempts to monopolize it.

Unlike Mo Fan, Chen Hao wouldn't blindly blame everything on Su Lu. In his view, even if Feng Zhoulong were transferred to another Intercontinental Magic Association, the outcome wouldn't change much. At most, it would be a little milder, but the resistance wouldn't be reduced in the slightest.

This is a class issue. Not everyone is willing to benefit humanity. Some people are already enjoying the benefits of all mankind. At this point, they only wish that time would stand still, and that humanity would not develop or change for ten thousand years, so that they can enjoy the support of all mankind forever.

Su Lu's rise to prominence was not accidental; it was inevitable!
Once Chen Hao decides to expand production and sell this new type of magical artifact on a large scale, these people will inevitably flock to him like sharks smelling blood.
