But what is troublesome is that this idea actually prevented Xie Yuan from making any progress in a short period of time.
The reason is that Xie Yuan does not understand the basic rules of magic in this world.
In this world, magic is a science, the essence of which is to control, suppress and utilize elemental energy.
Speaking of which, when the heavenly spheres converged, magic entered Ciri's world. Soon after, someone discovered that magic was a living thing that could change control. Who was the first mage to discover that he had this talent hidden in his body? , no one knows. However, what happened next was that not long after magic was discovered in the world, many talented people gradually formed a group to learn from each other and enhance their abilities.
This period is considered the beginning of magic, and these groups are the prototypes of magic schools.
These people are born with the ability to sense chaotic energy - the Sources who are sensitive to the power of elements (air, water, earth and fire). Such people are called "sources", and the sources pass through the system. After training, you can control magical energy.
People like Margarita, Yennefer, Triss, and men were the ones who were discovered to have this talent since childhood and were collected to be taught in the magic academy.
After continuous learning and years of control, they can use magic to do many things that are difficult for ordinary people to do, and they can delay their own aging through magical means. Therefore, warlocks live very long lives, and warlocks who are over 100 years old also look very beautiful. Young—Margarita, Yennefer, and even Kelly are tens or hundreds of years old...even the youngest Triss is in her seventies.
As for their choice of appearance, male warlocks tend to have an older appearance because they look more majestic and wise; while female sorcerers prefer young and beautiful faces - due to their long-term study of magic, most warlocks will lose fertility.
This is the origin and ability of warlocks and sorceresses in the mainstream magic world.
But Xie Yuan was studying the demon hunter's seal system.
Just like a mule, it is neither a horse nor a donkey, but has characteristics of both. The witcher's little tricks are somewhere between ordinary people and archmages - derived from the trace magical abilities obtained after the mutation of the Trial of Green Grass, the witcher can use some extremely simple quick-casting spells: Al of the Psychic Shock Germany, Igni who controls the flames, Yaksi who hypnotizes, etc., but more complex and powerful ones are impossible.
For things you don’t understand, you can only ask someone who does, like Margarita.
"An amplifier that concentrates the power of Alder's Seal?!"
After Margarita frowned and listened to Xie Yuan's idea, she was silent for a while, with a solemn look on her face: "I don't want to lie to you. In theory, I think it is feasible - you are actually building a system that compresses the output of ordinary seals. , to increase the power of Alder and focus it precisely on one receptor."
"It's not difficult," Margarita thought about her words, "In fact, it's just a combination of materials, energy pathways and magic runes. As long as I calculate it properly, I can directly debug a suitable ratio to make Alder's seal The power is concentrated at an angle as big as an egg.”
As she spoke, Margarita described a rough range with her fingers.
"But..." Xie Yuan knew that Margarita would not be so solemn when nothing happened. There must be something embarrassing about this method.
Margarita sighed: "Yuan, I don't know how you came up with such an idea, but this idea broke the window paper like a needle, allowing me not only to understand the mechanism at once, but also to One can imagine an unacceptable follow-up.”
"Oh?" Xie Yuan raised his eyebrows, "How do you say that?"
"In the past, the crossbow was even prohibited from being used by the church and nobles because it could cause unstoppable damage to anyone through their hands."
Margarita looked worried: "And now, with the advent of weapons like yours, I think it will further intensify people's fear of magic - the lethality of magic can be extended from military warfare to the streets... I think this This kind of weapon will even bring bad effects to us warlocks, even our reputation."
"I'm sorry, Yuan." Margarita apologized, "This is the first time you have asked me for advice, but due to my position as a warlock, I cannot be the promoter of this matter."
"Okay, it's okay." Although Xie Yuan felt sorry for this, he understood it very well, "Then I'd better try to study it myself."
After all, not everyone wants to have their name and reputation associated with a weapon.
"I...it's hard for me to say that I hope you go well." Margarita knew that she could not influence the man in front of her, but she still made a final request, "But please stop exploring, you are creating something devilish." Weapons.”
Well, since he couldn't get help from the theoretical experts, Xie Yuan, who went downstairs, simply came to Eskel. He had just completed an autopsy on a vampire, and Geralt was biting an apple and admiring it... ...strange style.
