Archbishop Noguera glanced at the dark, heavy machine next to his desk that smelled of grease, and sighed heartbrokenly.
One unit costs one thousand gold coins. If you buy five units, it will be equal to five thousand gold coins. If you buy ten units, it will be equal to ten thousand gold coins. The money in the temple does not come from the strong wind!
And this is only the initial purchase cost. The Archbishop looked at the rubber belt and the motor on the head of the machine, and felt that this thing could not withstand the full power of the knight.
It is not unusual for a piece of rubber belt to break after being stepped on once. Until now, rubber has been a monopoly business of the Alchemy Guild. If you want to replace it, you can only buy it from the Alchemy Guild.
By the way, there are also motors, and motors are the big money makers! In the past few years, the God of War Temple has also installed some generators. They are really easy to use, but maintenance is really expensive.
Those vampires from the Alchemy Guild will never let go of the opportunity to squeeze money from them!
"Well... Archbishop, I think we can also use some substitutes." Bishop Salem observed the words and carefully made suggestions:
"For example, casting a large hollow wheel for soldiers to run inside; for example, I have seen this machine made of wood in the countryside, allowing livestock to run on it, and driving equipment to grind flour or saw wood. We can make it bigger...
…”
"This is impossible." Archbishop Noguera immediately shook his head:
"Selen, you have to know that the core of this advanced method is not to let the warriors run, but to let the warriors run stably and at a constant speed, stage by stage, constantly increasing the speed."
To achieve this effect, the motor must be used for stable and precise control. What kind of hollow wheel or surface grinding wood sawing machine wants to do it one gear at a time, slowly speed up, and then maintain a uniform speed?
Thinking too much!
That kind of thing has no power, and relies entirely on the warrior's two legs to move. When the warrior slows down, their movements also slow down, and it cannot play the role of forcing the warrior to maintain the intensity of exercise. Besides,
"The key to advancement is not to let them run away!" The archbishop hates that iron cannot become steel:
"Let them run or let them fight. The God of War Temple has countless ways! However, the key to advancement is to ensure their safety through the observation of electrocardiograms during high-intensity exercise!"
As for observing electrocardiograms... the only alternative the temple can offer is to use mental power to lock advanced warriors and pay attention to changes in their vitality at all times.
Compared with electrocardiogram magic, this kind of substitution is much less sophisticated. Only priests above level 10 can use their mental power to lock the heart of a warrior in fierce battles; if you want to feel "the heart is failing" in a timely and accurate manner...
…
Sorry, you have to be an elite of level 10 or above priests to have such delicate mental power. However, this invention of Master Nordmark can lower the threshold of fine perception to level three priests.
As long as you can read an electrocardiogram.
Oh, electrocardiogram. Archbishop Nogueira rubbed his temples again and held back a painful groan:
Looking at today’s new paper, the requirements for electrocardiogram interpretation are much higher than learning electric defibrillation and cardioversion. With rescue magic, you can still judge whether to trigger an electric shock on your own, and the caster is only used as an assistant;
But this new way of advancement relies too much on the caster's judgment. To be honest, he has only memorized Master Nordmark's electrocardiogram manual so far and has not yet fully comprehended it.
Rely on tutoring?
Oh, in front of others, you make a broken wheel or a broken wooden shaft by yourself without using the machine invented by Master Mage Tower, and then hope that others will teach you well?
Even if Master Nordmark has a mellow temperament and is really willing to teach for the sake of curing diseases and saving people, the temple cannot afford to lose that face!
"By the way... go and ask them. The rubber belt is a bit soft and I can't help but step on it. See if you can replace it with an iron one, even an iron chain!"
A few days later, the Mage Tower sent a second prototype. After communicating with the Alchemy Guild, Master Norwood consulted the Alchemy Guild's technical reserves and changed the rubber belts into metal tracks.
Gretel sat happily under the eaves of the temple, holding an electrocardiogram and staring at the sweaty warriors running in the yard. Up to now, he had sorted out the steps for warriors to become knights several times, and they had formed a pattern.
A complete set of procedures:
The first step is a static electrocardiogram and blood test to observe whether there are any lesions in the heart and whether there are any illegal medications. As for t and other things, it is regarded as his private goods. The cost of routine examination is too high and will be removed in the future;
The second step is the electrocardiogram plate test to observe the heart's tolerance under strenuous exercise. Soldiers with good luck can advance in this step. Of course, most of them are not lucky.
The third step is that in the previous stage, warriors who did not successfully advance can take medicine according to the traditional process, and then advance under the supervision of the healer...
According to Bishop Salem's estimation, after this set of procedures, the number of warriors who can successfully advance is at least 10% more than the temple's previous plan. So far, no one has died, and the probability of serious injury has dropped by more than 50%.
This also means that a warrior who fails to pass the level but does not die can suffer less damage, can accumulate strength in a shorter period of time, and touch the edge of advancement again. And a knight, compared with a fourth-level warrior,
His fighting power, his worth and influence, the donations and assistance he can provide to the temple, have more than doubled!
It’s just a win-win, right?
"By the way, Master Nordmark," Bishop Salem called over and brought over a plate of berries, which were bright red and lovely, and placed them on Gretel's left hand. Each one was juicy and had just been washed with spring water, with some berries on them.
Hanging fresh water drops.
It was early spring, and the grass and trees were germinating, and there were at least two months left before the berries would bear fruit. These berries were grown in the greenhouse, and were maintained by special personnel with magical powers. Even the bishop could not eat them if he wanted to.
Only the archbishop can provide a stable supply.
Mage Nordmark, this is your second game today!
He was complaining, but nothing showed on his face. He smiled kindly and intimately:
"Your Excellency the Archbishop would like to ask you whether the same method can be applied to higher-level knight advancement."
For example, level 5 will advance to level 6, level 6 will advance to level 7, level 7 will advance to level 8... even higher, a knight will advance to a great knight or something. If the success rate can be improved a little, or the probability of serious injury or death can be reduced, then it will be good for
The income from the temple is much greater!
As for the Grand Knight becoming a Heavenly Knight, that is too far away. Each family has its own secret method, and each family has its own practice. The entire kingdom may not be able to stabilize a Heavenly Knight in ten years, and they will not be able to
Let people study.
"Is it more advanced? Let them give it a try!" Gretel stared at the electrocardiogram, picked up a berry and threw it into his mouth, and said without thinking:
"Electrocardiogram, T, cardiac color Doppler ultrasound, and dynamic plate test can all be done first. At least, they can be screened in advance to screen out those knights with cardiovascular problems."
One, one, and another. Well, the berries provided by the temple are sour and sweet, with a hint of umami, they are really good~
"By the way, how many high-level knights are there that need to be advanced? I have agreed to cooperate with my research before, 50 level 5 knights, 30 level 6 knights, 20 level 7 and 8 knights, they all need
Advanced?"
Bishop Salem: "..."
Oops, I have to adjust the list again, and there is more work...
For the research on high-level knights, in addition to electrocardiogram, t, and cardiac color ultrasound dynamic flat panel experiments, the treadmill needs to continue to be improved and a new content has been added. In fact, this content is the key to Grete's research:
Human body resistance experiment.
"Come on, relax." After Grete finished the cardiac ultrasound, he threw a cleaning tool to clean the coupling agent on the other person's chest. Then, he carefully fixed the two electrodes and connected them to the relevant equipment:
"Three, two, one, start! Well, this resistor..."
Thanks to Senior Sister Philby and the team led by Senior Sister, they really came up with a set of instruments for measuring voltage, current, resistance and other things. Gretel only needs to borrow it and use it. With his relationship with Senior Sister
, he didn’t even have to buy it…
Saved a lot of scientific research funds!
Good thing!
The human body's resistance to electric shock is closely related to the body's impedance. According to Gretel's previous experience, the more advanced the knight, the stronger the resistance to electric shock, and the higher the energy required to complete the electric defibrillation process.
This resistance may be related to impedance, the thickness of the epidermis, the thickness of the stratum corneum, or the energy in the individual's body. In any case, the guess is just a guess. What he needs now is to conduct human experiments.
"Wait, why is the impedance so high? According to this impedance, it is impossible to defibrillate with a current of 750 joules!"
"Mr. Master, do you want me to completely relax my strength?" The knight on the bed turned his head and smiled sheepishly:
"We knights, even if we don't inspire fighting spirit, can't be defeated by a single electric claw. If we encourage fighting spirit with all our strength, we can still maintain our fighting power even if we are faced with two or three lower-level magics."
Gretel: "..."
So is it really the energy density in the body that causes it? Even if a high-level knight is unconscious, there is still energy left in the body to spontaneously resist external lightning attacks.
Also, an eighth-level knight who is in perfect condition will not be afraid of one shot of [Electric Claw], let alone achieve a therapeutic effect!
"Keep this state and let me test it. Relax your strength completely and let me test it again! Serira! You help me press the switch and record the data. I will feel the diffusion of electric energy..."
He sat on the edge of the bed and quietly closed his eyes. Sure enough, after the electric energy entered the body of the knight, it was like traveling through hard rocks, and it consumed a lot of energy on the way. In contrast, when the electricity entered the body of an ordinary warrior, it was like traveling through loose soil.
, even walking through the swamp...
"We will test the knights of each level! Test everyone's human body impedance! Then compare them to see if we can summarize the rules."
