It has been nearly two weeks since the Tower Guards last left.
To be precise, Fang Plover has been alone in this white field for one hundred and forty hours, fifty-three minutes and seventeen seconds - he was gently closing the cover of his pocket watch and raised his head to look. Looking at this endless world, I sighed deeply.
Or it can be said to be two people: him and Miss Tata.
On the first day of every month in the world behind the door, the tower guard will return to this place to check the progress of his study. But usually, it doesn't take that long, because Fang Plover can always complete the task in advance.
In the first month, he first learned the formation-carving technique of the Numelin elves. At that time, it only took him ten days to complete the task - of course, this was related to his outstanding attainments in multiple parallelism.
The elven alchemists of the Numerin era did not need special tools, but injected magic power into the magic weapon to directly form spell patterns. This was their carving method.
Originally, this was a task that mortals without magical abilities could never accomplish. But in ancient times, mortal alchemists of previous generations tried to learn this skill by imitation. Their idea was to use an array to carve marks - first use the alchemical array to simulate the elves' spells, and then use the spells to carve marks on the magic device.
But this is undoubtedly a matter of getting twice the result with half the effort, because the elves have a total of 1,600 carving techniques for different magic circles, and even the most commonly used ones, there are more than 400. Even if the alchemy array that simulates these spells is first disassembled into single words and then temporarily assembled, mortal alchemists will have to prepare at least one hundred and forty-four single words - not including duplicates.
The earliest mortal alchemists used pre-prepared crystals to store these words. When they needed to be used, they inserted the crystals into the magic furnace, and then activated the words and runes in different crystals to form a magic circle. Simulate spells.
Then use spells to carve marks on the magic device.
The only advantage of doing this is that you can form an array out of thin air, and there are almost no requirements for tools and venues. But the complication is that each alchemist must carry a large number of magic circle crystals - not only when simulating spells when repeated words are encountered, a few more need to be prepared, but also to prevent the crystal magic power from being exhausted.
What's even more troublesome is that this also involves the alchemist who is not calm enough when forming a formation, and may take the wrong one or lose it, and a single mistake will lead to the failure of the ring. Relatively speaking, the Numerin elves who use spells directly do not have this problem at all.
The alchemy of the Numerin elves was already complicated, and the use of such a system made it even more complicated. Therefore, in less than a century, this method completely disappeared from history.
Later, people used the method of pre-engraving the magic circle on the control gloves, allowing the alchemists to use gestures instead of strokes - in this way, it was naturally a lot better than the earlier method. It's just that for mortal alchemists, they still need to stack up multiple magic circles in an instant (simulating spells requires multiple alchemy magic circles in parallel, and then carving out magic patterns through spells).
And even in that era when alchemy was very popular, there were actually very few people who could do it.
Moreover, in this era when technology was born, the civilianization of alchemy was already being implemented. Against the backdrop of the separation of combat craftsmen and production alchemists, the latter also seemed out of date in the face of the huge scale effects brought about by the change.
So after that, modern alchemy took a completely different path.
Over time, mortals were no longer so enthusiastic about the carving technology of the Numerin era. Humans, dwarves, and the descendants of other elves began to develop their own unique alchemy, and this ancient research was gradually shelved and gradually forgotten by people.
It was just the predecessor of this technology, and it later became the beginning of the profession of mortal magician. It can be regarded as an unintentional one.
However, of course the earlier technology has not completely disappeared. In fact, relevant records and documents still exist in the Silver Tower, and there are even some Silver Tower craftsmen and scholars who are exploring and researching in this field - this is also the reason for An Lowther's words.
As for the carving technique he gave Fang Plover, it was of course an improved carving technique.
In fact, the difficulty of this technology is not only the need to memorize a large number of single formations and formulas that have never been heard of before, but the biggest requirement is the extreme demands for stability, accuracy and speed.
After all, multiple magic circles must be drawn instantly without any mistakes. As we all know, the larger the system, the less reliable it will be. As long as there is a mistake in any of these magic circles, the entire carving process will fail - or even cause the magic device to be scrapped.
Its extreme requirements for accuracy are natural.
It’s just that these requirements are also reflected in multiple parallelism, especially in terms of stability and accuracy. Multi-line connections at structural points are one of the most basic requirements. As for speed, it’s a matter of opinion.
In fact, Fang Plover didn't understand why Anlose said that multiple parallelism is an introductory skill to Elf Alchemy until now, because the two are related to each other.
And precisely because of this, Fang Plover, who has deep research and experience in multiple parallelism, naturally has an innate advantage, and with his memory, he is actually not too bad - after all, he has learned so many things in the community. , which was rarely forgotten later.
All these factors allowed him to learn this skill with twice the result with half the effort, and it only took him ten days to complete the task.
As for the third and fourth skills, they are both related to material purification. The latter two may be like reading a book from heaven for those who have not mastered the carving technique. But for Fang Plover, who has mastered the carving technique, it is actually not that difficult. It is nothing more than a practical way of using the carving technique.
So it took them half a month to pass the test.
The fifth skill is 'multiple structures'.
Of course, the elven alchemists of the Numerin era would not assemble the parts of the magic device one by one like the contemporary mortal alchemists, and let the accuracy of the assembly process greatly affect the ability of the magic device. .
In fact, the alchemy skills of the elves are all integrated into one body, and after the alchemy is completed, it will be directly in the finished form.
Just like the scene Anloser showed him before.
Speaking of which, it is not impossible for mortals to complete this skill with the help of the magic furnace. Some top craftsmen also master similar skills. It's just that for ordinary alchemists, the casting and refining of single parts is complex enough, especially for some high-quality, complex-structured materials. From the perspective of the magic furnace - its structural points are already vast. starry sky.
What's more, it's made of multiple parts and materials of different materials integrated into one piece? Without certain experience, relying solely on calculations would kill most alchemists.
It also took a lot of time for Fang Plover to learn this skill.
After all, according to Anlose, this was the first 'advanced skill' he came into contact with among the ten ancient skills. But even for the advanced skills, it only took him twenty-seven days to complete them. Counting the rest time in between, the total of the five skills did not exceed three months.
It was this 'element screening' that finally gave him trouble.
According to Anloser, element screening requires sensing elements first - although it does not necessarily specify which type of element, at least there must be one type of element attribute.
"Although such a skill is an advanced skill," Anlose looked at Fang Plover, who had an unsightly expression, and said with rare relief: "But it shouldn't be too difficult for you, starting from the ether, looking for Elemental structure, to put it bluntly, actually relies on calculation and analysis.”
Generally speaking, this is indeed the case, but when the tower guard said these words, he obviously forgot that there is another kind of people in this world.
This type of person is called elementless adaptive person.
And Fang Plover is obviously one of them.
In fact, when Fang Yu heard this topic, his heart was already cold. Of course, he knew best what his situation was. The reason why he can become a combat craftsman is not because of any elemental aptitude, but simply because of the legacy of Hain-Fam.
He was a stowaway, not in tune with the Glow.
There is also no elemental suitability.
Of course, with a sense of luck, he still tried it once or twice, but the result was not beyond his expectation.
But simply giving up is obviously not in Fang Plover's dictionary. After that, he tried various methods.
Even Fang Yu can't remember how many times he has meditated into the etheric world - his etheric world is a mesh world - but the etheric magic is only the upper structure of this world, and he still needs to continue to go down to find more details about this world. Basic composition.
element.
The magic circle in his hand once again shone with a faint golden light, but after a radiant glow, when Fang Plover opened his eyes again and looked at the empty palms, he couldn't help but sigh - he failed again.
He didn't even remember how many times this had failed.
Half of the one-month deadline has passed (a twelve-hour day in the world behind the door), but he still doesn't have a clue.
On the side, Tata was powerless to intervene and could only look at his knight with some concern.
"Maybe take a break, Ed?" she asked softly.
Fang Yu was stunned. Miss Tata rarely called him by his name directly.
But he saw the worry in his Miss Dragon Soul's eyes, and couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, and replied: "Don't worry, Miss Tata, I understand." Naturally, he will try his best, but it does not mean that he will also Therefore, it is difficult to get into trouble. The alchemy of the Numerin elves may have some merits, but it does not mean that it is the absolute truth.
Otherwise, the alchemy of contemporary mortals would not have been born.
It's nice to have him, but it's actually acceptable without him. As for trying every possibility, it's just Fang Plover's inherent habit.
He sat down and enjoyed a small piece of biscuit with Miss Tata - this afternoon break seemed to have become a silent understanding between the two. However, Tata held the biscuits in both hands, still a little uneasy, and just raised her head and looked at him steadily.
Fang Yu turned around and was slightly startled by the twinkling stars in Miss Goblin's eyes.
He wanted to ask something, but for some reason, he suddenly remembered the days when he was studying alchemy in Kapka - the little light in Miss Tata's eyes seemed to be like the stars shining in this world.
In Aitaria, the twinkling stars make up everything——
It’s just that starlight does not constitute matter itself.
But when these high-dimensional information passes through the sea of ether, it shows different attributes. The ether is like the underlying code, sorting the stars into different formats - so the stars under different numbers, It forms the foundation of this world.
That's the element.
In Aitaria, elements are like the basic particles of their universe, the building blocks of this world. Everything in this world is built from hundreds of billions of elements, and finally forms its image in the macro world.
Therefore, it is not wrong to say that the starlight and elements work together to form the world behind the star gate. Because they only take on such a form in this world.
In fact, scientists from the earth have already discovered that when the high-dimensional information - that is, the starlight is carried out of the star gate, due to its separation from the 'ether' that only exists in 'Aitaria', It will return to its original form.
Both the glowing material seen by people on earth and the high-dimensional information itself hidden in it.
As for element suitability, it is another concept. To be precise, it has nothing to do with starlight, but refers to the elemental attributes of ether itself. In fact, among all things composed of stars with different elemental attributes, including even living creatures, there will always be some that have the ability to adapt to the elements.
This is the elemental adaptor.
Generally speaking, these people and objects are more likely to sense similar elements. As for those who do not have elemental adaptability, they can only accept the lowest level of non-attribute magic.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but rub his forehead. This was exactly the problem. 'Element screening' requires learners to feel a type of attribute - and the attribute here does not refer to attribute magic, but to attribute starlight.
That is, the element itself.
If it was just attribute magic power, he could also find a way from the magic furnace, because people with different elemental aptitudes can actually transform different elemental magic powers - that is, through the main core crystal. Just like the water elementalist, he can also use some fire spells, but the power and proficiency are far less powerful than the water spells.
What's more, the Type Zero and Type One crystals that Hain-Fum left for him were also designed to solve this problem.
But 'element screening' actually requires learners to use magic to mobilize different elemental substances in order to achieve the ability to 'create' things with elements. This is the core of the Numerin Elf Alchemist's drawing of materials out of thin air - directly using elements to build from the bottom up. Some common materials.
Since the elements exist forever, all they consume is some magic power.
However, if he couldn't even sense it, he wouldn't be able to talk about 'screening', so his non-attribute magic power would have no use. After all, the main crystal left by Hain-Fum only solved the problem of presence and absence, and did not fundamentally change his elemental suitability.
He had used various methods before, but they all ended in failure.
In fact, this is the reason why Miss Tata cannot help him - because as a fairy dragon soul, she must also be a dragon soul without attributes.
Just as the two of them were staring at each other, Miss Tata suddenly spoke: "Maybe I can think of a way, Mr. Knight."
"What?" Fang Yu was stunned when he heard this.
"It's just that this method has certain risks."
"Dangerous?"
"What I mean is," Tata replied softly: "Although I don't have elemental attributes, in fact most dragon souls have elemental attributes."
Fang Yu scratched his head: "Of course I know this, but firstly, people without elemental aptitude cannot sign a contract with an attribute dragon soul. Secondly, where can we find a dragon soul in this place?" When he said this, he suddenly He paused and looked at Miss Dragon Soul in surprise.
"Miss Tata, what you won't say is..."
The goblin lady nodded seriously.
Only then did Fang Yu understand what the danger the other party meant. What Tata meant was for him to take the initiative to contact the dragon soul that was still being nurtured in his spiritual world. Although neither of them knew what attributes the new dragon soul had, there was no doubt that most dragon souls had attributes.
Only the Fairy Dragon Soul is specially made for combat craftsmen, which seems to be an exception.
What's more important is that this dragon soul should have been born to sign a contract with him due to some coincidence.
But there is no need to say more about the danger. After all, it was formed by absorbing the power of Nicol Bolas, Toragothos and the lizard-man dark gods. God knows what kind of dragon soul it will be. Maybe it was the seed planted by the dark dragon or the lizard-man god in his spiritual world.
Once his divinity awakens, he will be in dire straits.
Fang Yu couldn't help but stood up and walked around twice. This method was undoubtedly too dangerous. But as Miss Tata said, it should be the only way he can solve this problem.
Is it just worth taking the risk?
However, this issue did not last long for Fang Plover to think about.
Because just when he was hesitating, suddenly there was a flash of light not far away, and a door of light opened from there. Then Fang Plover saw the tower guard stepping out from inside. Anlose turned back, looked at him with silver eyes, and asked:
"How's it going?"
"Mr. Tower Keeper," Fang Yu couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed for a moment: "It's not even a month yet..."
He originally thought it was because he completed his studies quickly every time, which caused the other party to have a habitual reaction and actually came to him in advance. But unexpectedly, Anloser just shook his head calmly this time and said: "It doesn't matter, that's it for this time."
"That's it?" Fang Plover was surprised: "But the time hasn't come yet."
Although he has not yet crossed the threshold of 'element screening', he finally has a clue to solve the problem. Although he hasn't decided whether to use it or not, but at least he has a hope, right?
Besides, there are still many skills that I haven’t learned yet, so why am I suddenly leaving the Hall of Thousand Doors?
Only then did he think of a possibility: "What's wrong, Mr. Anlosser, is there something going on outside?"
Regarding this question, Anloser only nodded: "Someone broke in."
