Su Han glanced at the data on the tablet. He couldn't understand the specialized terms. He asked, "How much has the subject's physique improved according to the data?"
Chu Shi said simply, "The physique has improved by 30%! That's already very powerful."
Chu Shi handed the tablet back and said to the volunteer, "Feng Hanhe, proceed to the laboratory testing grounds now."
The volunteer, named Feng Hanhe, stepped forward and said, "Yes!"
Following that, Feng Hanhe headed towards the laboratory testing grounds.
When Chu Shi and Su Han arrived at the laboratory testing grounds, Feng Hanhe was already waiting there.
Several scientists in white coats were also present.
The testing ground in this laboratory was about the size of a basketball court.
Feng Hanhe immediately stood at attention and called out, "Feng Hanhe reporting!"
Chu Shi said, "Yes, Feng Hanhe. Next, I will perform a magic spell. Listen carefully. First, gather your magic power. Then, recite the incantation to cast the spell..."
After a simple explanation, Chu Shi finally taught Feng Hanhe the incantation for a magic bullet.
Feng Hanhe diligently memorized the incantation. Holding his magic staff, he recited the pronunciation as Chu Shi had instructed.
A portion of his magic power was drawn from Feng Hanhe's body. Then, a magic bullet flew out, hitting a distant target. This magic bullet was as small as what Su Han had seen in...
The target sustained no damage.
"Hmm, at a distance of ten meters, the power is equivalent to 1 Joule. This power is even less useful than a chicken's rib," Chu Shi said with some disappointment. This level of power could not possibly replace firearms and ammunition.
Chu Shi was disappointed, but the scientists beside him were greatly excited.
"Excellent! This is equivalent to humans utilizing energy without any external aids."
"As humans learn more magic in the future, there will be more secrets to energy utilization."
These scientists were focused on the aspect of energy utilization.
At this moment, Su Han stepped forward and said, "Record this. I will also try to use magic here. I consumed the fruit of the Tree of Life in the magic world. Let's see if I can cast magic here as well!"
The scientists and experts nearby became excited again.
"The equipment has been adjusted!"
"The cameras are also ready!"
"Deputy Minister Su Han, you may begin!"
Su Han looked at the experts and scientists. He saw a look of inquisitive desire in their eyes.
"Magic Bullet!" A small portion of the magic power within Su Han was drawn out.
A silvery-white light flashed from Su Han's magic staff, and then a silvery-white magic bullet flew out. This magic bullet was as small as a small marble, just like in the magic world.
"Hmm, it's still as small as in the magic world! This magic bullet is really tiny!"
Chu Shi held a magic staff and recited an incantation. He also cast a magic bullet, which was also as small as a marble.
"The power is very weak. And the magic power that disappeared from my body has not yet recovered. Hmm, it seems that this dinosaur world has no such substance as magic."
While analyzing, Chu Shi cast several more magic bullets.
"Magic Bullet!"
"Magic Bullet!"
After fifteen minutes, Chu Shi sat down and said, "My outer magic power has been used up. I've cast a hundred magic bullets, but the magic power in my body has been slow to recover. Feng Hanhe, you cast magic bullets until all your outer magic power is depleted."
"Yes."
Feng Hanhe began to continuously cast magic bullets.
Ten minutes later, after casting eighty magic bullets, Feng Hanhe's outer magic power was depleted.
"Feng Hanhe cast eighty magic bullets. Each person's magic power is different. Feng Hanhe, you will wait here and slowly feel if your magic power is recovering!"
"Yes!"
Feng Hanhe stood there and began to wait.
Su Han asked, "Should I also try casting magic bullets to see how many I can release?"
Chu Shi said, "Deputy Minister Su Han, you will need to perform teleportation tomorrow. So, you should not cast magic bullets. I am worried that these magic bullets might affect your ability to cast the teleportation gate!"
"Alright!" Su Han could only watch from the side.
Feng Hanhe stood there for ten minutes.
Chu Shi asked, "Feng Hanhe, do you feel any magic power recovery? How is your condition?"
"Report. I don't feel any magic power recovery. I feel very tired!"
"You feel tired, which is due to the depletion of your outer magic power. Now, try sitting down. Experts over there, go get some food for Feng Hanhe to eat."
The expert whom Chu Shi had directed went to fetch some food.
After Feng Hanhe finished eating, he sat there and waited for another ten minutes.
Chu Shi asked again, "Feng Hanhe, how much magic power do you feel has recovered now?"
"I feel about half a magic bullet's worth of magic power has recovered!"
"Half? Approximately? Is there an exact amount?"
"Report! I can only estimate, I cannot provide an exact quantity!"
"Then wait until you recover enough magic power to cast one magic bullet. I need to get an accurate number."
After another twenty minutes of waiting, Chu Shi asked again, "Do you feel you've recovered one magic bullet's worth of magic power?"
"I feel I've recovered one magic bullet's worth!" Feng Hanhe said.
"Cast a magic bullet!"
Feng Hanhe held his magic staff.
"Magic Bullet!"
No magic bullet appeared from the magic staff.
Chu Shi asked, "What's going on?"
"Report, the magic power recovery is still insufficient!"
Chu Shi said, "Then your estimation was wrong. Continue resting."
After continuous rest and attempts like this, it took Feng Hanhe two hours to recover the magic power equivalent to one magic bullet.
Chu Shi was extremely disappointed. "Hmm, it took two hours to recover the magic power of one magic bullet. The magic power in my body has only recovered half a magic bullet's worth. And the difference between me and them is... Hmm, I understand!"
Su Han asked curiously, "What do you understand?"
Chu Shi said, "In this dinosaur world, there is no such component as magic. The only way to recover magic power is through food. And the speed of magic power recovery is extremely slow."
"So this dinosaur world has no magic. Does that mean that to recover magic power, we can only do it in the magic world?"
"Exactly, it is best to use magic in the magic world. But this fruit from the Tree of Life is also beneficial. It can increase our physique. However, we don't need to spend too much energy on magic. After all, magic cannot be used in other worlds."
Su Han agreed. In a world without magic, it would take two hours of eating to recover the magic power for a completely non-damaging magic bullet. And an ordinary person would have several magic bullets' worth of magic power, which would take hundreds of hours to recover enough magic power.
This was still the magic capacity of a beginner. If they leveled up to an apprentice mage? A mid-level mage? An advanced mage? Would it take thousands of hours? Or tens of thousands of hours? Or hundreds of thousands of hours to fully recover magic power through food? Therefore, what Chu Shi said was very correct. Magic had too little utility in other worlds. Su Han could not focus too much of his energy on magic cultivation now.
