Chapter 80 – The Artificial Second Heart
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
In this new era, New Human has succeeded in obtaining two essential "things."
The first "thing" is their "bond with the Homunculi."
In the future, this bond will come to be regarded as essential, and it will support New Humanity both physically and mentally.
As for the second "thing,"
"Certain research," or rather, a "thing" to support New Humanity's development, is being promoted in the Republic of Sages.
Nowadays, Homunculi have flowed into the global market, allowing people to easily purchase them.
As a result, the Republic of Sages succeeded in gaining enormous wealth.
In such a wise country, their enormous wealth has been directed towards "a certain line of research" that will revolutionize New Humanity's future development.
The Republic of Sages is acting as a hub for this line of research, where the most prominent researchers gather. *(E/N: Added the second part of the sentence for flow.)
Several research institutes have gathered here, carrying out secret government projects in the safety of the country's thick walls.
A huge confidential laboratory is located under the ground of this region, being built in the remains of an ancient country's war magic research facilities; though nowadays, various experimental magic tools are lined up instead of huge magic stones.
This underground facility is in the heart of the Republic of Sages; all the research done here is so important, it makes the rest of the country's ventures feel like "children's play."
There is a huge pool in the center of such an underground research institute.
Of course, it's not just any pool.
The liquid in the pool is the solution that is used to create Homunculi.
That pale blue solution fills the giant pool, seemingly the only thing inside.
However, in reality, a very important thing is to be noted.
At the time...
All the underground laboratory's researchers gathered around the giant pool.
Beside the pool, several researchers manipulate complex magic tools.
The researchers operating the tools sweat from the foreheads, desperately holding their trembling hands, full of tension from operating their magic tools.
The time had come.
The magic scale tool installed by the pool measuring magical power trembles slightly.
At that moment, all the researchers jumped up, cheered, and hugged each other.
The prodigies of the Republic of Sages, usually impassive, jump up like children, completely delighted.
What on Earth did they complete?
It becomes clear upon looking closely at the Homunculi's pool.
In the center of the huge pool, a single grain of a rice-sized "something" floats.
That "something" is softly beating.
Yes, spanning multiple ages, New Humanity has finally achieved it.
The true identity of that rice-sized "something?" It is an artificial magical organ—rather, in the fashion of New Humanity, there lies an "artificial second heart."
In the end, they finally created an artificial second heart.
It spread like wildfire. The news that the Republic of Sages managed to create an artificial second heart soon was known to every corner of the globe.
They announced their feat to the world and extensively promoted the completion of the artificial second heart.
Still, the magical output of the second heart was very low at this point, yet...
"If you give it nourishment, it will continue to produce magical power forever."
The world enthusiastically embraced the artificial second heart.
Every country rushed to the Republic of Sages to purchase an artificial second heart—despite its complete lack of mass production potential—each trying to beat each other.
The Republic of Sages responded to their demands will all its might.
A larger artificial second heart.
Increased magical power.
An inexpensive mass production method.
A reliable, sturdy, and efficient structure. *(E/N: Originally, "a structure that minimizes waste in order to reduce the time and effort of maintenance.")
Insomnia-inducing research continued, to the sacrifice of many researchers. *(Originally, "and many researchers collapsed.")
However, the Republic of Sages did not stop.
As soon as a researcher collapsed, a new researcher took their place.
If equipment failed, it was replaced within minutes.
Researchers were treated as if they were royalty.
Such bloody efforts proved fruitful, and the Republic of Sages successfully created a "complete" artificial second heart.
The artificial second heart that was created had enough power to revolutionize the world.
In this time period...
Countries beside the Republic of Sages had been devoted to unending war.
Or rather, they were under constant territorial disputes.
Every country had a cause, but their true intentions were extremely simple.
"I want to acquire a wider territory and a more abundant land than now and live the comfortable life possible."
That was it.
For that reason, New Humanity had devoted themselves to killing each other.
However, the artificial second heart stopped all such conflicts.
The reason was simple.
Magical power that seemed to be infinite made life easier regardless of territorial size.
The frigid country heading south in search of a warm-water port...
A country with infertile land invading neighboring ones in search of fertile plains...
Countries with little rain invading others in search of water.
The artificial second heart held the capability to solve all these problems.
By magically melting ice in frozen ports, ships can proceed without problems.
If land is infertile, it can be magically nourished.
No rain? Just magically create water.
Energy crises have become a relic of the past for New Humanity.
The artificial second heart became the savior of New Humanity.
With the success of the artificial second heart, the unending wars plaguing the countries of New Humanity ended very easily.
With the end of war, a large wave of former homunculus soldiers flooded the market.
Former homunculus soldiers, priced near to discard, sold like crazy, and took on many jobs.
Most work was focused on reconstruction, but, with this, people were starting to walk together with the homunculi and the artificial second heart.
