In the past, the layout of the magic tower was already a great thing if each brick could ensure that one or two magic passages could pass through and complete the cycle. And every magic circle that appears is the most important part of every magic tower. These formations may be a magic trap, or they may be a node that stores magic power and then distributes it to multiple locations. In other words, by observing the types of these magic arrays, you can know the capabilities of this magic tower, including its strengths and weaknesses.

But what is it like that every brick and stone is covered with magic patterns? Three or five bricks away, there will be a small magic circle. If there is a large magic circle, the secret text will be included in the huge text strokes.

The most shocking thing is the people standing in the lobby on the first floor. Whether it is the wall, floor or ceiling, it is difficult to describe the density of bricks one after another. It can be said that the entire space is like a spider web, densely covered with strange lines whose function is unknown.

The masters standing at the top of the tower, preparing for construction, were not much better. In addition to the light bullet attack array mixed with arcane eyes that has been changed beyond recognition, there are countless energy channels climbing up from the edge of the tower to supply the needs of the magic array at the top of the tower. They couldn't understand this unprecedented arrangement, and they couldn't do anything about it.

The disciples of the masters laboriously moved the mushroom-shaped bollards made of magical star copper to the top of the tower. He looked helplessly at his teacher and said, "Where can this be installed?"

It's a pity that these masters who built the magic tower all seemed to be possessed, pulling their hair or beards, muttering to themselves: "That's wrong." "It shouldn't be like this." "This is obviously going to be mutual. Interference, how can they be set up together?"

Yelling like crazy, several masters lay down on the top of the tower regardless of appearance, identifying every magic circle. His fingers traced its lines, trying to find the possible effects of such an arrangement from past experience and knowledge.

The prototype of the light bomb attack array is still there, but it is filled with countless magic patterns and secret spells that were added later. In the gaps, overlapping words or lines, there are more circles of formations with unknown meanings on the periphery. This strategic attack magic array seemed so unfamiliar that no one was even sure it could still function as it should.

Cuenca Carlos, the captain of the Gosportun, also came to the top of the tower. He boasted that the airship had gathered the most advanced technology in the Mysterious World, but there was no magic circle on the airship that was as complex as what he saw in front of him. He has even been to the Elf Empire and visited the roots of the World Tree. The natural magic patterns that the elves are proud of are what all magicians are willing to study throughout their lives. But there seemed to be nothing in front of him... He couldn't even use any words to compare the two.

However, the panic of others had nothing to do with Lin who was in the core room. He said that when he was on Earth, there was a lot of research on nanometer process levels, and playing with super large circuit boards by himself was only at the middle school level. It's not worth talking about at all.

Anyway, the group of masters accompanying the ship must be of a certain level, and it is impossible to carry parallel imports on this airship that is the face of the association, so there is no need to worry about it.

Besides, in the world of Mystery, it is taboo to watch the work of some craftsmen without permission. Even if he is the owner of this tower, if he wants to supervise from the side, he must ask for permission first. However, if you do this, you will usually be scolded by those masters. If you have a bad temper, you may quit.

So Lin stayed in the core room with peace of mind and took out the research he had interrupted to take a closer look. Then, I was interrupted again.

"Your Excellency, Master of the Tower, my teacher invites you to go to the top of the tower."

"Oh, are you done? It was so fast."

The young magician who came to the core room to say hello said with an embarrassed look: "No, work hasn't started yet."

"Ah, got it."

Lin didn't think much and followed him to the top of the tower. I saw a group of masters looking at each other, surrounding the copper pillars prepared as mooring stakes, staring at the floor covered with magic patterns, not knowing where to start. "Masters, is there anything wrong with the magic circle I set up?"

Faced with the tower owner's doubts, one of the masters said with confusion: "No, there is no big problem. It's just that the magic formations are too densely arranged, and we don't know where to place the bollards so as not to affect the original formation."

"Oh, it's such a small thing." Lin Buyi asked him about the mushroom-shaped copper pillar, which seemed very expensive and heavy just by its weight. After asking various precautions for its placement, he placed the west edge stone. Erase the small magic circle. and instruct others to place bollards at the location.

In fact, in the process of Lin improving the magic tower, not all improvements can achieve the expected results, or have significant performance improvements. But he did not deliberately erase those failed transformations. Firstly, the paint to carve the magic circle costs money, and the medicine to wash it away also costs money; secondly, these failed works are just less effective or not as good as expected. If it will have a negative impact, of course it should be corrected as soon as possible.

The erased magic circle belongs to this type. But others didn't know this and all exclaimed. Lin said casually: "This magic circle is only used for remote casting. There are several similar formations on the top of the tower, and this one is not missing. And I can't use so many magics at the same time. So there is no difference in erasing it. .”

To be honest, everyone can't understand it, so naturally they can't understand it either. Everyone was confused about the instructions from the tower master. In the confusion of his mind, he placed the bollard firmly on the edge stone, and then used magic to connect the two almost into one body. At this time, there will naturally be disciples of the master who skillfully re-engage the energy channels and make the bollards truly become part of the magic tower.

After just a few moves, everyone was blinded again. The lowest-level material can connect one energy channel; the middle-level material can connect two; and the high-level material like star copper can connect four to six. This is of course related to the speed at which the airship recharges, so the more the merrier.

But what should we do when there are more than ten energy channels waiting to be linked? You can't just connect the required amount and leave the rest interrupted. The energy channel of the magic tower must form a loop to be effective. If there is a breakpoint, there will be countless disadvantages, and the worst case scenario may even cause an explosion.

But you can't go around it directly. The direction of each magic pattern has its own reason and cannot be bent or turned at will. It cannot be fully connected. If materials such as bollards and mooring cables cannot bear the load, it may become an explosive airship.

Since my teacher is still struggling, it is of no use. After asking about the situation, the tower owner casually drew several small magic arrays on the bottom of the cylinder to simplify the energy channels, reducing them to six inputs; then simplifying them to complex ones, and outputting them at the original number.

"Is this possible?" An assistant magician looked at the tower master's essay and asked with some worry.

"Let's give it a try. If something goes wrong with the airship, there should be some warning signs. Just interrupt the connection then. It won't explode without any warning."

The magic circle that Lin drew casually was the most interesting discovery he made while studying the magic tower. The mana power that each magic energy channel can transmit is the same, and it will not differ due to the depth and thickness of the markings. In other words, if a magic circle wants to exert greater power, it must input more energy, which requires more energy channel links.

However, the amount and characteristics of the mana transmitted through energy channels can be changed. Just like electricity on earth, it can be filtered and transformed.

However, Lin did not dare to guarantee whether the bollards were suitable for charging airships. Because a lot of knowledge about the Lost World and the Earth seem to be similar, but they are not exactly the same. Therefore, everything is still subject to experimental results.

In desperation, the airship dropped the mooring cable and tied it firmly to the bollard. The light cyan light also extended towards the airship along with the cable, and the energy symbolizing the magic tower began to flow into the airship.

People on the boat and on the top of the tower were paying careful attention to the connection. If there was anything wrong, they would untie it in the shortest possible time. Time passes and things seem normal. When they received the reward from the airship, the mana power contained in the secondary energy pool was slowly rising, and everyone at the top of the tower breathed a sigh of relief.

After Lin Zai exchanged a few words with the captain, he returned to the core room and closed the energy channel to appear. He was finally able to regain his composure and no longer be disturbed.

But at the same time, another debate on the airship also began. In the largest cabin, except for the seats for the three presidents, the rest of the space was full of people standing. Everyone takes turns reporting what they just saw.

If Lin were present, he would summarize everyone's feedback as the most common situation encountered by Taiwanese students learning English, that is, they can recognize all 26 letters from A to Z, but they cannot recognize them together.

The magicians who came with the airship were all the best in each branch. Their extensive knowledge is beyond the comparison of ordinary magicians. Of course, they recognized a lot of the magic circles drawn by Lin. However, no one can tell what kind of effect will be produced when so many magic arrays are arranged and overlapped.

"So,──" the president of the Cadiz District Chapter, Gray Otto, looked at everyone and asked, "──we are going to launch an attack on the Tower of the Great Sage according to the original plan."

"No, that's not the original plan. It was just one of the backup plans after the tower owner rejected our proposal. It's just one, not the only backup plan." President of the Noonan District Chapter, Rashidiye, did not hesitate. retorted.

Gray Otto stared at someone sharply and said, "The implication is that you are against the attack."

"Yes, I object. If you insist on attacking, please allow my men to leave first." Rashidiya was not afraid of the threatening gaze of his fellow president.

In terms of strength, on the airship, the number of magicians in Cadiz District and Noonan District is about five or five, and no one is afraid of the other. The key party is the people in the Leon District who, in addition to an equal number of magicians, also have control of the airship.

So both parties turned to look at the president of the Leon District Chapter, Jose Carlos. Gray Otto even asked: "What do you mean, President Carlos?"
