Kasuga ordered Kai to directly supply power to the power terminal of ‘Lapis Makina’, an aluminum prototype mass production facility.

Now, when Lapis Machina, who had prepared in advance, began to move perfectly after receiving the electric current sent by Kai, aluminum would really pour out.

aluminum.

This lumpy metal is an everyday metal with very low value in modern society, but in the Middle Ages, when aluminum, which was more expensive than gold, was still painstakingly made by adding all kinds of additives and catalysts, it was not just a metal but a treasure.

Napoleon III of modern France used only aluminum tableware, not gold tableware, to show off his wealth, and the great powers such as France and the British Empire, which had widely colonized the world, found aluminum expensive, so they smeared it on all kinds of exhibits in their countries to make the world famous. showed off to

Aluminum became cheap only recently, in 1886.

Until then, aluminum was a very expensive precious metal.

Before the introduction of the Hall-Heroult process, an aluminum electrolysis mass production method, the price of aluminum was much more expensive than gold.

Aluminum’s incredible value in the Middle Ages and modern times is something we can’t even think of today.

Even here in the world of Azeroth, aluminum has become somewhat easier to produce than in the Middle Ages on Earth with the help of ‘alchemy’, but it is still very expensive than gold.

Earth silver and aluminum were ultra-precious metals that were more expensive than silver or gold, which came from clay or earth.

And now I was just trying to mass-produce aluminum at crazy prices in this fantasy world using the Lapis Machina device using the Hol-Eru method, like a modern factory.

This was the same as creating a gem mine with my own hands.

“Lapis Machina will finally work now. Preparations before power injection have already been completed and are progressing well.”

“The temperature of the pre-heated extraction chamber reaches 1,000 degrees! The cryolite is starting to melt! Alumina is also melting! Ensure stable power supply for electrolysis!”

Maynes reported the current situation loudly in a noisy place with machines.

The temperature of the extraction room, which contains cryolite, which melts at 1,000 degrees, which is easy to obtain, and alumina, which is easily extracted from iron rock (bauxite) through alchemy, has already exceeded 1,000 degrees.

And the alumina, which should have melted at 2,070 degrees according to the principle of the Hall-Eru process, reacted with cryolite and some of it started to melt at only 1,000 degrees.

Hot alumina flows as a liquid in a sealed room that safely reaches 1,000 degrees using medieval technology.

And Kai, who had received my command, started discharging electricity safely as he had been practicing with his thunderbolt at Lapis Machina’s power terminal.

Grumble! Crackling!

“Kaaah!!!”

“Cheer up, Kai! It’s about overcoming the pranks of the elemental spirits! Don’t be defeated by reverse current! Thinking of Young Ji-min and your family who are starving!”

“Kkeugagak! I can’t lose!!!”

While Kai was supplying current to the current terminal, due to the spirits’ prank, he ate the reverse current and let out a harsh cry of pain.

The yellow hair began to straighten out like a chestnut flower due to reverse current discharge.

The reason for the reverse current was not a design mistake or anything like that, but a single reason that was unique to this world.

It was because of the mischief of the ‘spirits’, a deterrent and force of nature that I couldn’t even see.

Especially since the lightning spirit is making a fuss around Kai.

“Really, spirits are like seawater. It would be like a deterrent to banning science in the uncivilized Middle Ages.”

I sighed as I watched Kai suffer from the spirit’s reverse current antics due to the presence of a shitty spirit.

Science in this barbaric world was really having a lot of trouble because of these invisible, subtle spirit beings whose existence was doubtful.

Are you playing a prank on my human battery and causing it to suffer from a reverse current by passing a strong current to collect the aluminum from the cathode terminal through electrolysis to the alumina, which is now reacting with cryolite and melting at exactly half the temperature?

The spirits were truly no different from scientific sea creatures.

However, every time Kai complained of pain due to the reverse current, the current he sent flowed strongly to the molten alumina in the extraction chamber, and pure aluminum metal began to gather at the negative terminal in the extraction chamber, as expected.

Very pure, pale gray aluminum. It was a wonderful purity rarely seen in the Middle Ages.

This truly treasure of tremendous value was being created right before my eyes in an instant.

This is money being copied!

So I shouted loudly to Kai, who was suffering from reverse current.

“Kai! It’s aluminum! Aluminum that will become the bread of your territory and the flesh of your family! Be more strong! Show your earnest spirit without being defeated by spirits or anything like that!”

“Spirits! Don’t disturb me! For the reform of the Bemes Kingdom! For the territory of G-Rex!”

Kai began to demonstrate his unique hard work.

When gunpowder accumulates in a gunpowder barrel, it ignites, gives reverse current when current accumulates, creates a hurricane when there is a rainy season, and shoots tornadoes when the wind blows. The disgusting pranks of the spirits.

Kai showed great strength with his hair spread out like a chestnut while withstanding the lightning spirit’s reverse current treatment.

Due to Kai’s efforts, a huge electric current was released and the melted alumina exploded! Aluminum is extracted and collects at the negative terminal.

“Kai. You’re trying! I’m proud as your older brother!”

I applauded Kai’s fighting spirit.

Moreover, by this time, Kai had gotten used to electric shocks and couldn’t even go to the bathroom to drain the water.

How much electric shock training did he do when he was alone?

The bottom of my nose suddenly got watery.

If we had given the insanely expensive anti-spirit power anti-spirit setting to the prototype Lapis Machina, Kai would not have suffered this much pain.

Building such a special production room cost too much money.

It really wasn’t that expensive, so it had no choice but to cause pain to Kai now.

Kai! It is natural for all inventions to explode, catch fire, or fall to pieces at first! We will now build an anti-elemental power production room using the enormous amount of money earned from the aluminum made through your sacrifice.

Be sure to endure mass production just this time!

“Kegagagak!”

I tightly closed my eyes while looking at Kai, who was in great pain from the reverse current.

Scientific progress inherently involves sacrifice.

Kai von Girex’s tearful reverse electric bath to enlighten the barbaric Middle Ages! Just stay strong, Kai!

“Glory to G-Rex!!! Only a bright future for the Kingdom of Bemes!!!”

“Really… . That’s great perseverance. Noraengi. I can’t believe your body is sparkling like that.”

“That’s why I thought of bringing in Kai as my close friend. Bariel.”

“Hee hee! The research data is so sweet! Just 10 more minutes! Please be more patient, Kai!”

Kai, who is screaming and fighting to the death, Bariel, who has come to accept the yellow-haired Kai a little, and Mayness, who has now become a half-mad scientist with new data.

We talked about our impressions of aluminum production while looking at the large amount of aluminum liquid that had already accumulated in Lapis Machina’s extraction chamber, which was being produced rapidly by feeding on Kai’s tearful electric current.

Silver-colored aluminum, which is truly more precious than gold, began to be produced in abundance.

****

Raivis Grand Prize.

It was one of Vermina’s largest merchants, with Sonbai Laibis as the chairman, and boasted a truly powerful royal influence.

Yes, I boasted about it once.

“Hehe! Holy shit! Havel Promise! A truly dog-eat-dog with no reward!”

Wow! Sun Bai coolly swept the items on the desk with both hands at once and threw them all on the floor.

Sunbai, the chairman of Rybis, expressed his anger at the chairman of Aju Habal Promise by tearing out the hair on the top of his head, which was already terminally bald.

Holy shit!

In the ten years since Promise Sanghoe appeared, Ryvis Sanghoe has been consistently losing in competition.

Although it is still one of the most popular grand prizes in the royal capital, it felt like only a huge distribution network and reputation remained.

I feel empty inside.

Ten years of defeat had already rotted the inside out of the Raivis Grand Prize, and Sun Bai’s abundant hair was reduced to 80% baldness due to terminal alopecia areata.

Son Bai was so excited that he was robbed by Promise Company without a single hair left.

In every project I did, I was interrupted every time and often failed, and when I started competing to get to the top of Promise, I fell behind as information leaked out.

I don’t know where the above information leaked to Havel Promise.

We were completely defeated by Promise Sanghoe.

Even these days, the aristocrats of the royal palace, who have been on the side of the Raivis Grand Society for a long time, are starting to lean towards the upper end of Promise, no matter where they make a huge amount of money.

These guys really have no loyalty! He was a merchant himself, but considering his sincerity so far, this was too much.

Currently, the top of Promise is expanding infinitely.

Several top companies collapsed, were absorbed, or became puppets.

“Crazy bastards. How can these thieves-like robber merchants who dominate the back-end become one of Vermina’s two leading merchants? They must have made a lot of money from the terrible drug called Hafne’s Yawn.”

Sunbai strongly guessed that the ‘Haphne’s Yawn’, which is popular among the poor and lower classes these days and makes people drowsy and yawns, but gives them the peace that can only be found in heaven, was a major source of funds for them these days.

This was 100% correct since they were trash crawling out from the back to begin with.

Raivis is still a close second in the royal road, but if the situation continues like this for a few more years, it is clear that Promise will overtake them and cause a reversal.

They didn’t care about any means or methods.

No, considering the well-hidden underground economic power behind Promise, the No. 1 position in the royal capital may have already been reversed.

He wasn’t at the level of a rising rookie like people thought. He’s intentionally hiding his body, just like he’s always hiding his true purpose.

He was a ‘talented man who hid his power’. And the actual second-tier owner of the royal capital was Habel Promise.

I heard that alcohol and cigarettes are really bad for hair loss.

Just thinking about Havel Promise’s disgusting fat face, Sunbai couldn’t bear to drink or smoke.

Moreover, as if he had ruined his children’s farming, didn’t his only son show off his index finger to a sacred warrior candidate during the Bemes Academy warrior selection ceremony?

Of the two women, the eldest is currently Sachi Sammaekyeong.

The youngest daughter, who worked hard, was just cute because she was young.

“However, even if the youngest daughter is talented, she is still young and has little experience, so she will never be a match for the mean Promise Company. It’s really frustrating. This guy is so strong, even his experienced father really has no answer.”

Phew. Fuck.

Son Bai, the head of the hair loss family, was really under a lot of stress.

Wouldn’t a noble person suddenly fall from the sky?

If the nobleman were really a man, he would marry my youngest daughter and give her a successor. If he were a woman, even if I had to completely crush Hoidin’s head, he would dismantle the prostitutes he had paid for and make her marry right away.

What sins did I commit in my past life that makes it so difficult to live like this?

Sun Bai exhaled thick smoke.

Cass, who was at Raibi’s business with a very upset Sonbai, was calmly getting off the carriage and walking towards the main gate of the business, carrying only a really heavy metal bag very lightly and accompanied only by Bariel.

The purpose of Cass’s visit was to use the connections of Hoidin Raivis, who had completely lost the bet to select the relic selected by Cass during the hero selection ceremony and had now become Cass’ forced moral disciple, to sell aluminum.

Hoi Dinh, the son of a fool, was now calling Son Bai to a nobleman of all time.
