Chapter 119 A pot given by white wood carving
Thinking Lab.
The blue sky above my head and soft and dry soil under my feet.
Compared to the empty space in the past, the laboratory has a lot more things, the most eye-catching one is a row of long bookshelfs.
Copies can be found here for every book Locandi collection. More than 100 hand-written books copied by Roland are also here.
Roland planned to copy every book he had come into contact with and form a private library that belonged only to him.
At this time, he was sitting on the sand with his back against the bookshelf, holding a "Spell Rune Table" in his left hand, and in the air on his right hand, the three-dimensional rune array that had been copied in before floated.
The rune array exudes a faint silver glow, which is quite exquisite.
"The three-dimensional array, hemispherical, involves a total of 1,212 runes, and there are all kinds of runes, mysterious, elemental, and deformation runes. They are all common runes, but the combination of runes is much beyond my understanding... I don't know what this thing is for."
If you don’t know what it is, then just try it directly. Anyway, this is the thinking laboratory.
Roland poked out his mana tentacle, touched one rune and one rune, looking for the initial trigger rune of the array.
"This didn't respond, this didn't respond, this didn't respond, this didn't work..."
"This is reacting and has a faint attraction... Well, no, after the mana flows in, it quickly reaches a dead end, not this."
"Ye~ This is right, the suction is very strong. After the mana is injected into it, the road is smooth. This should be the initial rune!"
After trying more than 100 runes in a row, Roland found the location of the initial rune.
He began to inject mana into the array.
As mana continues to pour into the array, the rune array vibrates slightly, and the silver light it emits fades a lot.
More than ten seconds later, Roland's mana had flowed throughout the rune array.
At this time, the vibration completely stopped, the silver light disappeared completely, and the entire rune array became translucent and looming, but not completely invisible. With careful observation, the position of the rune array can be easily determined.
There is nothing but these phenomena.
Roland was stunned: "That's over? It seems...it doesn't seem to work."
Is it his method of activating the array wrong?
He revoked his mana and continued to experiment.
In this test, Roland tried it more than 300 times in a row, changing various methods in the middle, but the final result was the same.
This three-dimensional rune array that emits silver light, semi-spherical, and extremely exquisite, has the only effect after inputting mana, which is that it loses the silver light and enters a semi-invisible state.
Roland was so angry that he was so angry that he was made by this thing.
He sat cross-legged on the ground, looked up at the rune array floating in the air, and fell into deep thought.
"I have tried all kinds of experimental methods as long as I can think of. Although I don't have many magics now, my magic foundation is still solid. I am basically familiar with the triggering methods of rune arrays. Even if I am not familiar with them, I can learn them quickly after exploring them. There should be no rune arrays in this world that I cannot use at all?"
This is by no means arrogant, but self-confidence.
As a graduated spell apprentice, although he did not learn spells, he learned how to use ready-made magic tools.
In the field of magic, Roland is like a novice driver who just got his driver's license. He doesn't know how to build a car, but there is definitely no big problem in driving.
This three-dimensional rune array is equivalent to a finished magic weapon, a "car". However, the driver Roland, who is unable to understand its driving method.
This really hit Roland's self-confidence a bit.
"Can it be, this is simply a misunderstanding... The white wood carving was teasing me and gave me a toy car?"
After thinking hard for half an hour, Roland really couldn't figure it out. It was too late, so it was not a problem to continue like this. He had to leave the thinking laboratory and return to the cabin with a lot of doubts.
As soon as he went to the attic, Lily's voice came: "I'm back? Are you okay?"
Roland felt warm in his heart: "It feels very good, Lily."
"Oh~ That's good. Then I'll sleep~ ha~" Lily yawned, turned around, and fell asleep soon.
After lying down on the bed, Roland entered the Thinking Lab again.
This time, he did not study this inexplicable rune array, but studied spells.
The battle with the low-level mage Sallud was a great inspiration for him.
His greatest enlightenment is to hide himself, not only his body, but also his magic ripples.
In this way, you can not only gain the right to attack first in battle. When fighting, you don’t have to worry about disturbing others, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.
How to hide the ripples of mana?
This is Roland’s research ideas these days.
Originally, Roland thought this should not be difficult, but so many days have passed, and the ideas are still ideas, and no specific solutions have been found.
After so many days of hard work, Roland has not gained nothing.
His current gain is that hiding magic ripples is equivalent to requiring a person to not have water splashes around his body when swimming.
Just thinking about it can tell that this is too contrary to common sense.
"Oh~ Is there really no solution... Wait, hide yourself..." Roland's heart suddenly moved and turned to look at the three-dimensional rune array.
"The function of this thing is not just to hide it, right?"
After inputting mana, it enters an extremely unobtrusive translucent state, which seems to be related to hiding.
Following this idea, Roland started experimenting again.
After nearly 50 tests, the results came out, which made Roland stunned!
As a result, after the rune array is activated, it can block all spell fluctuations within three meters of the caster's radius. It is not simply weakened, but completely blocked, and not leaked at all.
Within the shielding range, no matter how Roland tossed, even if it released the most powerful flame fist, outside the rune array, it was calm and could not feel any movement.
Such a perfect shielding effect is simply a miracle!
So how did this thing break the rules?
The principle is amazingly simple!
It is a semicircular "pot", which is inverted and presses the caster into the "pot". In this way, the ripples of mana emitted by the caster will hit the "pot" and will be reflected back by it 100% and cannot be penetrated at all.
Where did the ripples of magic power reflected back go?
This is the most clever place, and the ripples reflected back were all poured into the earth!
The ripples of mana that spread into the air will make the caster like a torch in the dark. No one can sense the ripples of mana that pour into the earth.
After understanding the principle of action, Roland sighed with emotion.
"Tsk tsk~ What a big pot! What a clever thought!"
This rune array perfectly meets Roland's needs!
He couldn't help but think: "Can the white wood carving really live? Otherwise, how could it know what I want?"
This little thing is becoming more and more mysterious.
He brought this thing with him, not knowing whether it was a good or a bad thing.
After thinking for a while, he was too lazy to worry about it. Bai Mudiao has been following him for a long time. So far, he is still living well.
Let go of the entanglement in his heart, Roland began to consider the application of this rune array.
"The array is very complex, containing 1,212 runes. It is definitely not possible to cast spells with bare hands. You must make magic tools... Well, if you need materials, there should be no problem."
Materials are not difficult. He is rich now and is still a legal apprentice in magic. He goes to the magic item store in the city and just spends money to buy it.
"Well~~~ I will complete the design of the magic tool in the laboratory first, and after it is done, I will take the time to go to the city."
Do it when you think about it.
Chapter completed!
