Volume 1 Chapter 12 (1/2)

Variable Speed Magic Fan

The little slave was covered in bruises and lacerations. Although his wounds looked very terrifying, they were actually only skin wounds and didn’t hurt his physique at all.

Xu Yi delivered him to Banta City’s best hospital. After confirming that there was no life threatening danger, he left him with the doctor and let the doctor watch over him as he returned to the Camilla Magic Tower.

Returning to the lab, his coworkers were a bit surprised to see him suddenly come in.

“Hey, Xu Yi, didn’t you take the day off? Why are you back?” Rem loudly asked.

“I finished my matters and had nothing else to do, so I came back to see if there was any work here.” Xu Yi replied with a smile.

“Oh? I thought that you wouldn’t be planning to come back this time.”

“Rem, don’t you understand? With how well the Magic Fans are selling right now, Xu Yi would be fine even if he didn’t come back. He can become rich just by selling the Magic Fans, how would he need to come back to this shabby tower to do the dirty work in the future?”

Hearing this dark voice, Xu Yi slightly knit his brows. He then shook his head with a smile and ignored it.

Because he needed to organize the factory and do many other things, he had to take several days off.

Great Magician Camilla said nothing about this, but his coworkers in the lab had some veiled criticisms. There were even some that had a bit of anger in their voices when they were talking.

Xu Yi was too lazy to care about why they cared about him so much, it didn’t affect him that much anyway.

“Wella, how is the research for the Magic Array going?” Xu Yi came directly to Wella’s desk and asked in a low voice.

“It’s pretty much done.” Wella took out a Magic Array blueprint and spread it on the table, “Look at this, I agree with your thought that using the Lidiel Node would conflict with the Magic Array. I’ve done many experiments over the past few days and have already found the most suitable model. Do you think it’s alright?”

“Since you say it’s the most suitable, then there definitely isn’t a problem.”

Though he said this, Xu Yi still carefully looked over the Magic Array blueprint. Finally he confirmed that Wella’s solution was indeed very suitable.

“Great! Wella, thanks for your help.” After saying this, Xu Yi gave a soft cough, “Of course, help on one side and reward on the other. Another ten gold coins, what do you think?”

Wella’s face had a slight blush and she awkwardly said, “Isn’t that too much? I only spent a single night on it.”

“He, he, it’s because you are a genius. Knowledge is priceless, I even feel ten gold coins isn’t enough.” Xu Yi said.

Wella thought about it and was no longer polite, as she nodded in agreement.

When Xu Yi walked away from Wella, Rem came over with a frown.

“Wella, what were you talking about with Xu Yi? Acting all sneaky.”

Wella glared at him, “Who are you calling sneaky? How was it sneaky?”

Rem was surprised and his voice became apologetic, “No, no, no, I’m just saying…..Mysterious, that’s right, mysterious. What were you talking about?”

“Nothing, Xu Yi just wanted my help in studying a Magic Array and then he gave me ten gold coins as remunerations.” Wella didn’t think there was anything that needed hiding, so she openly said it.

“Ten gold coins?” Rem shouted out in surprise, attracting the attention of everyone in the lab. He was surprised before saying in a low voice, “He’s giving you ten gold coins just to study one Magic Array? Is he cheating you?”

“What reason would he have to cheat me?” Wella rolled her eyes at Rem, “This is not the first, he paid me quite openly the past few times. What reason do I have to not trust him?”

“Not the first time?” Rem was even more shocked, “Wella, you actually…...actually hid from me that you and Xu Yi……”

Wella instantly flew into a rage, “What are you saying? What hiding from you? Who are you to me? Do I have to report to you if I want to do something?”

Wella’s voice became even louder and fell onto the ears of everyone in the lab. Everyone looked over at Wella and Rem, treating it as a lover’s quarrel.

And then everyone looked over at Xu Yi. They couldn’t understand, why did Xu Yi talking to Wella for a bit cause her and Rem to argue? That kid Rem, he normally wasn’t someone who was jealous…...

Xu Yi didn’t have time to pay attention to Wella and Rem. After he received the Magic Array blueprint from Wella, he went back to his table to continue working.

This Magic Array was an improved Revolving Wind Array for the Magic Fan.

Because the first design for the Magic Fan was rushed, there were many parts that weren’t perfect. Now that Xu Yi was prepared to expand Magic Fan production lines, naturally he was prepared to make a new Magic Fan.

For example, if he finished researching this Magic Array in his hand, he could let the Magic Fan change speeds. It wouldn’t keep rotating at the same speed like the first generation Magic Fan.
