Chapter 854 - A New Invention
Chapter 854
(Unedited)
…
The commotion in the Dragon's Ridge is not new as the races inside of it would often fight against each other. However, since it has gone to such a large scale, it has shaken the whole Dragon's Ridge.
While this chaotic event is happening, Shin Jiao has gathered everyone in the Quarterdeck. He is going to show them something new and wanted their opinion about it.
While crafting the large ship, he has casually checked his inventory and after turning his sight on the mind stones and crystals, he noticed a different type of crystal which is mixed amongst the pile.
He did not notice this as he just absorbed everything in his dimension without scruple, but now that he saw it, his expression changes a little.
This is because this thing can actually let electricity pass through it and create colored lines on its surface. It's like a raw material that is already prepared to be turned into a display.
Shin Jiao was a little amazed at the crystal and began searching his inventory for more. And to his surprise, he truly has gathered more of it, and it all came from the lair of that giant snake.
"Haha… This is good… I did not have to wreak my mind in finding ways to create a display… This thing is like a natural ready-made display material." Shin Jiao said to himself at that time as he began to create 2 inches thick display screens on a whim.
After almost exhausting all of the crystals, he left two of them unprocessed so that he could find more of them in the future. However, he did not notice that he has actually crafted more than thousands of those displays with different sizes, but most of them are around 14x8 inches.
Since his type of display technology is far too advanced for the researchers to decode, the display crystal did the trick. This time they can just create the display control array, connectivity, and audio. If they combined these things, then this would be the first television in this land.
This made Shin Jiao feel a bit excited. He has already made up his mind to take more of these crystals once he goes out of this world and then spread this technology in the immortal land. This is because this type of crystal is easier to use than his previous crafted television display.
Plus he could clearly see that the crystal display more clarity and vividness judging from the line it produces.
As the leaders of his group gathered, everyone is looking at a strange square thing covered by a piece of cloth. Everyone is curious about what is inside that piece of cloth and wanted to have a peek inside it. But no one dares to do so as Shin Jiao is standing beside it with a calm demeanor.
However, the youngest and the most curious of them all is Im Ao who could not help but ask.
"Big Brother Shin, what is that thing? I wanna see it!" Im Ao said with a cheerful tone as if he is going to receive a new toy.
Everyone showed the same expression on their faces as if they all agreed to the small child's idea.
But Shin Jiao showed a faint smile on his face and patted the head of Im Ao gently. As everyone has not gathered yet, so he would not start the presentation.
The last to arrive is Nariz Gumal who has a huge frown on her face as she was really busy in the laboratory with her experiments. These days, she did not care about what is happening outside as long as she can do her experiments in the laboratory she is already content.
She has found the joy of discovering many things after living for thousands of years. Since she was solely focused on cultivating and strengthening her ability, she has neglected a lot of things in her life. She even neglected her long-lost brother which she seems to have an idea that she would never see ever upon learning how cruel this world is.
And so, as she enters the Quarterdeck Shin Jiao showed a faint smile on his face which made her show a change of reaction. How could she dare to glare at him or show her discontent?
Nariz Gumal walks near Im Jae and silently watched.
"Alright since everyone is here, I would like to show everyone something new that I have found and created…" Shin Jiao said as he unveiled the thing on the table.
Everyone could not help but look at it. Even the operators and people monitoring the ship, craned their heads to see what is on the table.
Suddenly a mage frowns and muttered to herself.
"That's a common light crystal, right? It's only a common crystal that would always be discarded everywhere. What's new about that thing?"
Her mutter did not escape the ears of everyone in the room which made her lowered her head in embarrassment.
Everyone frowns at her comments, and some who are standing beside her slowly steps away. They dare not meet the eyes of Nariz Gumal who is very strict towards them.
They knew that Shin Jiao is a kind person and everyone is close to him. However, the people around him are the ones they feared the most even that small child who is like a monster when in battle.
But then they saw Shin Jiao's expression suddenly lighting up…
"You… You know what this crystal is?" Shin Jiao asked with a hint of excitement in his eyes.
The female mage felt a bit afraid now. She wanted to scold herself for not holding back on her words. But since the master is already looking at her, she could just grit her teeth and step forward.
Her feeling became calm when she saw that the master is not angry at her. In fact, he seems to be excited and happy.
"Reporting to the Master… this lowly one knows what type of crystal are those. They are considered byproducts of many types of crystals. They are just toys for the young mages to test out their powers and type of mana." She said while bowing her head.
"So you mean there are many crystals like this lying around the place?" Shin Jiao confirms.
This time, the female mage did not answer but Hau Xiao.
"I seem to see a lot of those in the dumping site near the crystal quarry of the town. If you want I can take you there."
With her words, the rest of the people nodded their heads as they agree with her.
"No, you don't have to. I want you all to buys as many of these crystals as possible. Hahaha… We can use this for our own benefit and use… Plus we can also gain more materials and resources through this…" Shin Jiao commended and the rest nodded their heads.
"Alright… Since I called you all here, I will all show you something good." Shin Jiao said as he turns on the Visor Training Console which is sitting on the table.
On the Visor Training Console, there are wires connected to it and the black square crystal.
It did not take long before everyone could see that the black square crystal slowly turned bright and they saw the familiar training courses which everyone has experienced.
"This… Shin Jiao… How did you do this?" the first one to ask is Nariz Gumal.
This is because a part of her team is working hard on the displayed project that Shin Jiao has given them but they still got no result after a long time. However, now they are seeing that by only using an ordinary crystal that is actually being thrown, the displayed project is easily finished.
"Haha… I wanted your team to stop the research… This time, we have found the raw material which is far more superior in what I have seen so far." Shin Jiao said with a smile.
In fact, what he said is the truth. Even the most advanced LCD display on earth could not compare to the lucidity and precision of display that the crystal possessed. It was truly a miraculous wonder of nature.
"Now, that team should focus more on something else which I will give you the blueprints later…" Shin Jiao said.
"With this, we can change the display of our ship. Imagine things being clearer as if you are using your own eyes to see things. If we can use this technology to its finest then we can benefit greatly from it. This kind of crystal will truly be to our advantage."
Shin Jiao began to show them the thing he crafted and the group plans their next move. They are going to create the first TV program in this world. But to do that, Shin Jiao would combine the new display crystal with the camera.
And so the whole ship began to be busy as they excitedly prepare for the broadcast of the new technology that they will show to the whole town.
Meanwhile, in the town, inside each of the mage towers, something is also brewing.. And that something is not good for Shin Jiao and his group.
