Chapter 425 (2/2)

Furthermore, lighting is more significant—a stable and clean source of light could greatly increase the residents’ happiness and render them better study conditions at night. After all, not everybody wants to read a book under the dim candle light after a day’s stressful work.

Besides, doing something like seizing the legendary thunder power and using it for daily life would help eliminate suspicion and enhance scientific spirit. This was probably the civilians’ most intuitive understanding of electricity’s applications. As astonishing as airships and electric cars may sound, they were too far away from people’s daily life.

More importantly, the weak candle light simply couldn’t meet the needs for night production. With light bulbs, the factories would be able to sustain production even at night, and the workers could even work on three shifts if necessary, which meant the work efficiency in the little town would be further improved.

After setting the direction of development, there were still a series of problems to be solved to achieve his goals, such as light bulb manufacturing, line construction, power supply schemes, and the promotion of electricity utilization, etc.

But these problems could be considered later.

With this thought, Roland called Wendy.

“Do you intend to calculate the daily consumption and the surplus of my sisters’ magic powers, and transfer them to Mystery Moon according to the plan?” Wendy asked, after hearing Roland’s statement.

“Yes. Those combat witches who have fixed missions can be excluded from your calculation though.” The prince nodded. “What do you think?”

Essentially, they were to gather the magic powers left after the witches’ ability practice, mission consumption, and emergency preparation, and use them to produce the Dawn I. Such an arrangement could not only put the magic powers of witches into full play, but could also enhance the effects of their practice, which was helpful to the promotion of their magic powers on the annual Days of Awakening.

“I think Hummingbird and Echo would be happy,” Wendy said with a smile, “because they can then be as useful as Anna. But how will the magic power surplus be measured?”

“By using the Stone of Measurement, which was a universal method used by the Union.”

“Yes, Your Highness.” She bowed slightly. “Right, today is the Day of Adulthood for Lucia. Should we gather all the members of the union to accompany her?”

Roland was shocked a bit. “Oh… I’ve almost forgotten it.”

“There are so many things for you to remember,” Wendy said softly. “I’ve written down every sister’s growth history on this notebook so that nothing will be missed.”

After Anna’s Day of Awakening, Lightning, Nana, and Echo had also passed their “second birthday” in succession. But the Day of Adulthood was actually more meaningful and it could be taken as a special Day of Awakening. Although they happened on the same day, the bite of magic power that one suffered on the Day of Adulthood was several times stronger than usual. Unless the witches could master how to eliminate the pain caused by biting, the Day of Adulthood could be a matter of life and death.

After adulthood, the witches’ abilities would be stabilized while getting considerable improvements at the same time, and some witches could even develop derivative skills, which was as significant as evolution.

“OK. I’ll prepare a rich dinner tonight.” Roland said softly, “Besides the Witch Union, I’ll be there to accompany her as well.”
