Merson, the researcher who invented the Magic Power Engine, completely transformed human transportation.

Researcher Merson developed and manufactured the "Deadly Strike," enabling any core member of the family to fight back against a powerful threat.

Researcher Melson improved anti-gravity magic, enabling warships to fly.

Researcher Melson accidentally summoned a pancake and learned about the existence of magical girls from it. Using the magical girls' power system as a reference, he eventually developed the Mystic Code.

……

Simply put, for a member of the Melson family to earn a place on the family's list of heroes as a researcher, designing some ordinary new magical devices is far from enough.

It must be a magical artifact capable of ushering in a new era.

Bobo's talent is undoubtedly excellent, but he hasn't reached the level of those monsters on the Mearson Elite List yet, at least not now.

Even if you racked your brains, you couldn't research a new type of magical device that could once again put you a generation ahead. At least not right now.

Fortunately, Bobo has a reliable and excellent older sister who can help him cheat.

"You got off easy, you brat."

Having made up her mind, Emery even made this self-deprecating remark:

"I wonder if what I'm doing makes me a 'brother-supporting demon'?"

Although the reality of this world has changed a lot from the original game, there are still many similarities.

For example, during the Snowfield Dragon Hunting Trial held by the Lohid family, the Lohid family showcased their greatest achievement in a thousand years—the Lohid Replication Technique.

When Emery was playing games in her previous life, she had an idea for this magic that might allow the magical devices in this world to achieve another technological leap.

If this idea could be realized, it would absolutely allow Amelie to be listed among the family's heroes based on this one thing alone.

She originally wanted to use this idea to add another persona of a genius researcher to her image, since she could never have too many personal honors.

However, plans can change. After careful consideration, Emery believed that giving the idea to Bobo would be more beneficial.

After all, if Emery herself were to publish this idea after it was completed, she would at most become more famous, which would be nothing more than icing on the cake for someone as outstanding as her.

If this idea were given to Popo, Emerald would have a completely obedient next head of the family, at which point she would have enormous power within the family and would obviously benefit more.

So on the third day after the New Year celebration, Emerald took Bobo and Lulu to Locke City, saying that she wanted to take her younger siblings to have a few more days of fun before school started, and no one suspected anything.

During the day, Emery did indeed take Bobo and Lulu to have a good time in Locke City. The two little pink-haired girls had actually wanted to come and play for a long time, but they had been delayed by various things. Now they finally fulfilled their wish.

The two pink-haired girls are the sons and daughters of top-tier conglomerates. In their eyes, neither the most upscale shopping venues nor the most beautiful natural scenery in Locke City mattered much, and they had little interest in them.

What truly interested the two little pink-haired girls were the various cultural and historical sites in Locke City named after Yulia.

Yulia showed no embarrassment whatsoever, and personally led the two little pink-haired girls on a tour of various attractions in Locke City, including Yulia Square, Yulia Museum, Yulia's Former Residence, Yulia Classroom, and the birthplace of the heroine.

Although the two little pink-haired girls had already watched Yulia's movie several times, they were still very excited when they came to these attractions in person, and would chatter away asking all sorts of questions.

After playing all day and returning home, Amelie personally grabbed Lulu and handed her over to Viliana for tutoring.

As Lulu progresses through her class, it becomes increasingly difficult for her to maintain her absolute advantage solely based on her Elvish talent. Several other gifted students in the magic academy are now close to catching up with her, and she must work even harder to retain her position as the top student in her grade.

So even though she pouted and complained that she had to study while playing, Lulu still listened to Amelie and obediently went to learn magic with Virianna.

Emerald didn't look for Julia, Massey, or Sulina, nor did she greet them... They all assumed Emerald would be visiting the other tonight, so although they felt a little lonely, they didn't say anything.

However, Amelie didn't find anyone to practice water magic tonight. Instead, she took Bobo to her workshop where she usually worked on various ideas, saying that she wanted to talk about important matters in her life.

Before discussing matters, Emerald showed Bobo two videos, which were of her leading Locke City in two battles against the Level 5 magic tide and the giant fat woman Mondori.

After watching the video, Emery smiled at Popo's utterly shocked expression:

How are you feeling?

"Sister, your magical costume is absolutely amazing! Her name is [Celestial Wing Saintess], right? I can hardly believe that such a perfect masterpiece exists in the world!"

As Emerald had predicted, Polnareff, who had embarked on the path of developing magical artifacts, was most interested in magical costumes. At this moment, Polnareff, still wearing her little skirt, had a look of utter infatuation on her face:

"She's so beautiful! If she could have a personality, I'd want to marry her... Powerful magical artifacts are definitely the best; humans are so boring... Oh dear!"

"If Judy hears you say that, she'll be heartbroken."

Emerald tapped Bobo on the head with her finger before asking:

"So, what do you think is the most outstanding aspect of the [Heavenly Winged Saintess]?"

"Wings, of course!"

Pop answered almost without hesitation:

“Using the feathers of the Aurora Bird to create independent spellcasting units, and then combining them with the Lohid Replication Technique, it’s like you, sister, are a magic army all by yourself! This design is absolutely ingenious.”

After saying that, Bobo sighed again:

"It's a pity that the consumption of so many spellcasting units is also terrifying. Only mages in the Fusion stage can use this kind of magical artifact. If mages below the Fusion stage try to use it, they will probably be drained of their magic power and die before they can even defeat the enemy."

"Yes, my [Celestial Wing Saintess] is undoubtedly the best magical artifact in the world, but only a strong person like me can use it, so it cannot be popularized. Therefore, it still cannot be called a revolutionary magical artifact."

Emerald first sighed with regret, then suddenly looked into Bobo's eyes, her expression becoming extremely serious:

"So, Bobo, would you like to develop a magical device based on the Lohid Replication Technique, and make it usable by all mages?"

“A mage who possesses this kind of magical artifact may not be able to become a magic army on his own like me, but he will definitely not lose to an elven mage so easily again. A mage can also master thousands of spells on his own, and he doesn’t need to learn them at all.”

"Hey?"

Bobo paused for a moment, his expression a mixture of excitement and confusion.

Chapter 237 My Good Sister Emerald

So it still doesn't work?

Seeing Bobo's bewildered look, Emerald sighed inwardly.

Bobo's talent is undoubtedly outstanding; if placed on Earth, the planet Amelie's previous life, he would be at the level of a top student in the engineering school at MIT.

MIT’s engineering school produces top students every year, but not every top student goes on to become a world-renowned scientist and win top awards.

If it were a genius like Langdon, after hearing what Emery just said, his eyes would light up and he would excitedly shout, "I've got an inspiration!"

Although Bobo also longed for the scene described by Emerald, his eyes were filled with more confusion—because as a professional, he had no inspiration on how to technically turn Emerald's idea into reality.

Even among geniuses, there are differences.

Fortunately, Emery was prepared for this. The scene she just described was not just a fantasy, but had theoretical concepts and technical directions. She originally planned to create it this year to enhance her genius image, but now she was just giving it to Bobo.

So Emerald simply ruffled Bobo's hair, pulled him to sit down with her, and smiled very patiently:

"The reason why human mages can't beat elven mages in one-on-one combat is because elven mages have far more magic at their disposal, dozens or even hundreds of times more than mages... So why not inscribe more magic into the mages' magical artifacts as well?"

"Because it's impossible!"

Bobo does have some expertise in this area, and he blurted out:

“No matter what materials a magical artifact is made of, each spell inscribed into it requires its own resources, and the resources that a magical artifact can use are limited.”

"It's not impossible to forcibly inscribe dozens of spells into a magical artifact, but that would make each spell very weak. A fireball spell might not even be able to ignite a piece of toilet paper."

"So the reason why high-end magical artifacts can record more magic is not only due to their leading design and manufacturing technology, but also mainly due to their materials—the magical materials of ancient dragon-level monsters are at least ten times more abundant than those of ordinary monsters. Even if more spells are recorded, the power of a single spell will not be weakened. This is the secret of high-end magical artifacts."

"That's right."

Emerald smiled and ruffled Bobo's hair again, this time as encouragement:

"Bobo, do you know the original intention of the Lohid family in developing the Lohid Replication Technique? They didn't expect that human mages could defeat elven mages one-on-one. What they pursued was that the human mage army would no longer be weaker than the elven mage army. Now they have succeeded. The Lohid Replication Technique can definitely achieve this."

"In the newly formed magic legion of the Lohid family, only a dozen or so people who have mastered dozens of single-element specialization spells are needed as leaders. The rest of the magicians can learn only one spell, which is the Lohid Replication Spell."

"In battle, no matter what spell the human magic legion needs to use, only one person needs to know it. The rest can use the Lohid Copying Technique to copy it, which will also increase the power of the spell to the legion level."

"A truly ingenious idea, isn't it?"

"Bobo, as the developer of magical artifacts for the Melson family, have you ever thought about applying this concept to magical artifacts?"

"...Used in magical artifacts?"

Bobo's eyes brightened slightly, probably because inspiration had finally struck, but not much.

Emerald remained patient. She stretched out her hand in front of Bobo and projected a video using magic, which was a record of her test on the [Winged Saintess].

"Let's take a look at my magical costume, sister."

Emery patiently persuaded:

"The aurora bird feathers on your wings are so cool, aren't they? Each one is an independent spellcasting unit. They can amplify the effect of any spell I cast by you by more than 200 times through the Lohid Copying Technique. The power is amazing."

"What if we consider these 256 Aurora Bird feathers as a whole, and the spell that is superimposed on these 256 feathers as a spell with a power of about 200 times? What comes to mind, Bobo?"

"...I think I understand what you mean, sister!"

Bobo's eyes finally began to sparkle. Amelie was very familiar with this look; it was almost the same whenever old Langdon had a new idea and pulled her aside to discuss it.

I need paper and pen!

Bobo immediately started shouting, and without waiting for Emeralt's reply, he began searching in Emeralt's workroom and quickly found paper and pen on her desk.

Brush brush!

With just a few simple strokes, Bobo sketched out a basic design for a magical device component. He then excitedly pointed at the sketch with his pen, saying:

"Currently, when allocating resources for each spell, magical devices either distribute them evenly or allocate slightly more resources to one spell to ensure the power of each spell."

"Following your line of thinking, sister, when allocating the magical resources of the magic device, we can allocate 90% of the resources to the Lohid Replication Technique, and then divide the remaining 10% into 10 parts, each of which will be inscribed with a different spell and linked to the 90% of resources in that part."

"In this way, no matter which of the 10 small portions of magic is released, it will trigger the Lohid Copying spell of the 90% resource portion to activate together! As a result, the magical artifacts made of the same materials can not only record more magic, but the power of individual spells will also be increased!"

"...Is that so, sister?"

After finishing speaking in one breath, Bobo raised his head and looked at Emerald expectantly.

Amelie smiled gently, but shook her head slightly:

"The general idea is correct, but the details are wrong."

After saying that, Emerald pinched Polnareff's soft cheeks before picking up her pen and, with drawing skills that were clearly inferior to Polnareff's, sketching the outline of a super cannon next to the sketch of the magical device components that Polnareff had drawn:

“If we follow your idea, Bobo, I can use the best materials to build a super magic cannon, and the cannon will only contain the Lohid Copying Technique.”

"So if any small fry annoys me, I'll just fire a fireball at them, then activate the Super Cannon's Lohid Copying Technique, simultaneously launching a devastating fire-attribute magic bullet that will blast the small fry and the city they're in into the sky... Popo, do you think that's possible?"

"That... seems quite unlikely."

Bobo's face fell, and he immediately realized where he had gone wrong:

"It's because the Lohid copying technique has limitations, right? The copied spell cannot exceed the power of the original spell; at most, it can only have about 80% of the power of the original spell."

"This isn't something that can be achieved simply by increasing magic power consumption. The only feasible way to increase damage right now is through multiple spellcasting stacking... That's why your Mystic Code requires 256 Aurora Bird feathers as independent casting units, rather than adding a powerful magic cannon."

"That's right, as expected of Bobo, he came up with the correct answer so quickly."

Amelie nodded in satisfaction.

But Popovich himself was somewhat frustrated:

"I still can't do it... Sister, you gave me such obvious hints, and I only just realized it now. I'm really too stupid."

Despite saying this, Bobo didn't give up because of his disappointment. Instead, he slapped his cheeks a few times to cheer himself up and picked up his pen again to start sketching the components of the magical device:

"In that case, I need to revise my previous approach."

“Dividing the magical resources of the magic device as before is not feasible. Using the Lohid Replication Technique with 90% of the resources to replicate magic with 1% of the resources will only replicate about 0.8% of the power.”

"Therefore, the correct approach should be to divide the magical resources of the magic device into 100 parts, with 90 parts used to inscribe the Lohid Replication Technique, and the remaining 10 parts used to inscribe different spells, which will then be linked with the 90 Lohid Replication Techniques."

"This way, we can record more magic into the magic device, and at the same time, the power of individual spells can also be increased!"

"Wow! Sister, you're such a genius! You've never studied magical device development before, how did you come up with this idea?"

When Bobo looked up again, his eyes were full of adoration as he gazed at Emerald.

Emerald had enjoyed such adoring gazes countless times over the years as her two little pink-haired girls grew up, and each time she still felt happy.

Why do people pursue beauty, wealth, strength, and power?

Isn't it all about enjoying others' admiration, infatuation, and even jealousy?

If there's only one person in the world, what difference does it make whether he's a powerful being who can destroy a planet or a weakling who can't even kill a chicken? No one else would know anyway.

"Because I'm your older sister~~"

After basking in Bobo's adoring gaze for a moment, Emerald patted Bobo's head again, just like when they were children, and then said once more:
