Arcane Lord

In the following days, Xia Duo lived a busy and fulfilling life.

The process of analyzing the Blazing Sun Array is actually a process of learning the 9-level spell [Blazing Sun]. Although this is inconsistent with his usual idea of ​​upgrading through the [Ring-Up Trial], the Blazing Sun Array does not check Completely, he was still worried.

There are also maintenance issues. Steven did not leave a detailed maintenance manual when he handed over. There are only some maintenance notes in the Watchtower Library.

If Xia Duo wants to avoid having to maintain the Blazing Sun Array every month and maintain the Watch Tower regularly in the future, in addition to working hard to cultivate the reserve force of the Tower of Time, he also needs to formulate a system as soon as possible that is easy for latecomers to learn and use. maintenance manual.

The Blazing Sun spell itself is not too complicated for Xia Duo. It can even be said to be quite simple. It is just a 9-ring spell stacked with energy levels.

It doesn't actually contain many unknown element units, and the difficulty is simply that Xia Duo cannot directly access the ninth layer of the magic network, so low-level elements need to be used as substitute expressions.

The calculation is probably more than ten times more complicated than studying the ninth layer of the Magic Network after contacting it.

This is actually nothing, it just takes time.

But in this way, Xia Duo can also have a better understanding of this spell and the energy level characteristics of the 9-level spell, which is of great significance to the 9-level conversion of other spells in the future.

…

In addition to analyzing the Blazing Sun Array, Sha Duo has also completely sorted out the books, research notes, experimental records, and scattered manuscripts that he brought back from the ruins of the Innocent Master Tower these days.

Cost books are the largest part, and a small part of them are original elves. Although they also contain some magic and spell content, they are mainly art-related, such as poetry, music scores, etc.

The rest are all written by members of the Innocent Mage Tower. They often extend from a certain spell and explain the principles, which is quite modern.

It's a pity that these are books written hundreds of years ago. Except for the research methods and organization contained in it, which can be read at a glance, the rest are probably not of high value, especially to Xia Duo himself.

Of course, for members of the Tower of Time, these can basically be regarded as advanced reading materials for intermediate and high-level mages.

As for research notes, experimental records and scattered manuscripts, there are probably only two valuable things for Chateau.

One is some research notes on "Plane Creation", and the other is the research on using mixed crystals to replace mithril.

However, the former does not even have a successful case, and Xia Duo needs to further complete it; while the latter, although there are successful cases, the conditions for its realization are extremely harsh.

If you want to use miscellaneous crystals to replace mithril, you first need to obtain extremely pure miscellaneous crystals (miscellaneous does not refer to impurities, but means that it is different from other crystals and cannot be used as an energy buffer core). This step is almost as difficult as purifying mithril. silver.

The plan for Master Innocent's Tower is to use pure transparent miscellaneous crystals, and then remove the white crystals that contain energy.

White crystal, except for its slight luminescence due to its rich positive energy, has almost the same appearance as mixed crystal.

But also because of the characteristic of luminescence, it can be distinguished from miscellaneous crystals. It is enough to crush and pick out the non-luminous ones, and then melt and recast the miscellaneous crystal powder. (Power gems cannot be melted and recast)

If it is a non-transparent mixed crystal, it is basically difficult to obtain a relatively pure experimental semi-finished product.

Xia Duo was not sure whether he could extract pure transparent mixed crystals using the [Element Extraction] used to refine mithril, but even if it could, obtaining semi-finished products was not an easy task.

Not to mention that if you want to replace mithril, it is not only what these semi-finished mixed crystals can do, but also requires a series of transformations to turn the mixed crystal into a metal-like material.

Of course, the external characteristics of the material are not the key. The key is to build a special energy channel inside.

Since Xia Duo's main focus during this period of time was on analyzing the Blazing Sun Array, how to construct a special energy channel and the principles of this method, he has not yet fully understood it.

But the experimental results are clear at a glance. Innocent Mage Tower's experiments on replacing mithril were rarely successful, and in those successful cases, the hybrid crystal conductor maintained the energy path for a very short time. (Longer in a laboratory environment, but will soon expire after separation)

The transparent frame that Shado and Niya bought on Plan Street in the old town of Severton was the remains of an experimental product.

The wreckage can also be reused, which is much more advanced than Mithril. After all, Mithril only uses its own conductive properties.

However, this kind of hybrid crystal conductor uses a special structure to conduct energy, and the requirements for purity can be lower, as long as an energy channel can be constructed initially.

It is conceivable that if the technology related to this kind of hybrid crystal conductor is fully mature, the only use of mithril will probably be some high-end magic items with extremely high volume requirements, such as the mithril chip envisioned by Chateau.

It is worth looking forward to whether future magic items and magic devices will exist in the form of large crystal matrices or microchips.

Of course, artificial mithril may also appear. After all, the principle is very simple. The transmutation of elements can change the type of matter. If it can be directionally transformed into mithril, isn't it artificial mithril technology?

Or if you understand the elemental nature of the substance Mithril, you may be able to directly create Mithril from elements.

Magic is always evolving, and the problems that plague mages today may be easily answered by even an apprentice in the future.

…

Soon, the time came to the last day of February.

On this day, after Shado sent away Rodit and Abner who came to copy the harvest from the Innocent Master Tower ruins, he prepared to maintain the Blazing Sun Array.

In fact, as early as the day before yesterday, he had completely analyzed the Blazing Sun Array, and during the day yesterday, he went to the sea south of Watch Island to try this spell, and through this he came into contact with the ninth layer of the magic network.

If Rodit and Abner weren't still in the Watchtower, and the Watchtower didn't have a tower spirit who could control the situation in the tower at any time, Shado would have already started to maintain the Blazing Sun Array.

The two people finally left today. Xia Duo immediately closed the watchtower and came to the triple blazing sun formation next to the uppermost positive energy pool.

The reason why it is a three-layered magic circle is the meaning of this.

In order to ensure that the Chiyang brand "light bulb" outside would not go out, Xia Duo first activated a new backup array, and while slowly increasing its power, he reduced the operating power of the current array until it finally stopped.

This step is unlikely to cause problems if it is performed by any high-level mage, let alone Xia Duo. This is the reason why the maintenance of the Blazing Sun Array can be delayed for two months.

There are also two new sets of backup arrays!
