There is such a good thing, but if you don't create a hundred and eighty of them to play with, wouldn't it be a pity for a time traveler who has the ability to attract money?
Such an idea would be thrown right out the window before the flaws in Eye of the Spy .
In order to maintain secrecy, the Eye of the Spy cannot be large. It is not that easy to complete the carving of two sets of magic array patterns, namely the arcane eye and remote positioning, in a limited volume. At least until now, Lin has not thought of a suitable and easy way to do this.
It is precisely because the formation patterns that need to be engraved with two sets of magic are already quite compact, so there is no way to transmit image data over long distances in real time like the satellites that were originally sent into the sky. It must be recycled before the materials captured by the spy's eye can be extracted.
In order for the magic to achieve a certain effect, the material used as a carrier cannot be too bad. In order to be able to store the detected real scene, the magic stone must also be of high grade.
However, the problem that has always existed has not yet been solved, and that is the high-dimensional pollution caused by the flash technique. In other words, no one knows how many times a good spy eye can be used.
If it can be solved by spending money, then there is nothing wrong with just playing around with it. However, it takes a lot of effort to make it. The magic props that are created with great effort are not only expensive, but may also be just disposable toys. If it didn't have an extremely important special purpose, people wouldn't want to build this thing at all. This is also the reason why the spy eye has remained on the design draft and has never been materialized.
The situation we are facing now seems to be that 'important and special' purpose. However, someone now regretted that he had not made the Spy Eye before and actually tested it. Therefore, Lin Ke was not 100% sure whether everything on the drawings would work as originally envisioned.
But there seems to be no other better option in sight. After asking the two girls to get the necessary materials from the cart of belongings, Lin began to make the spy eye for the first time.
Since he had hidden what he wanted to do from the silver-bearded dwarves from the very beginning, Lin had no intention of relying on their exquisite craftsmanship.
Although there is a design draft, it is far from finalized. There may be modifications and optimizations during the production process, so it is impossible to leave it to two girls. This is because time is tight and you have to hand over your ideas to your apprentices until they can understand and implement them. It is more practical to do it yourself.
When Lin started working, he ignored the conversation and focused on the few materials in front of him that were no more than the size of a fingernail. When other people saw someone getting into a situation, they also lowered their voices and started doing their own things.
Because the man in this state is immovable and nothing can distract him. This can be regarded as the patience and concentration developed by observing and recording the stars day after day, year after year.
When the thing was roughly completed and someone came back to his senses, the birds outside were singing softly, and the sun was shining in through the gaps in the tent. Only then did Lin remember to yawn. The sound of him standing up and stretching woke up the fallen person behind him.
The two girls rubbed their eyes and said hello. And for someone who had relaxed slightly, sleepiness hit his eyelids uncontrollably. During the time of the Tower of the Great Sage, it was normal to stay up late for stargazing operations at night. And now this time is just the time to catch up on sleep, but it's not yet the time to sleep peacefully.
He held up his heavy eyelids and washed his face vigorously with the cold well water that Halumi had just fetched from the well outside to cheer up his spirits. Others looked at the completed gadget on the temporary workbench curiously.
I originally wanted to make a few more backups, but after staying up all night, putting together this one was already someone's limit. And to have such a person, Lin felt that he had already performed beyond the ordinary.
This is only possible with the help of a specially designed golem arm. It can completely imitate the movements of the user's hands, shorten the distance of arm movement in proportion, and also corrects hand shake. It is a dedicated tool for someone who is doing delicate work.
"Is this what you call the spy's eye?" Compared to the others who were more cautious, Fen directly used his index thumb to hold the small thing in front of his eyes and examine it. This is a technique of inlaying stones within stones, which is commonly used when making magic props or weapons. This spy's eye is like a yellow eyeball with a red pupil, but it is much smaller. "Does it work?"
"It might work."
"I guess... I'm really unsure." As he said this, Fen wanted to throw away his hand.
Lin quickly stopped him and said, "No, don't throw it away. It's so small that it's hard to get it back."
"Otherwise, how can you test that you can really capture an object from outside your field of vision and change it back? Or are you afraid of breaking it?"
Taking back the hard-finished prop from Fen's hand, Lin said: "Both the material itself and the method I used to inlay the two stones are not so easy to destroy. But it can withstand several transmissions of the Flash Technique. I won’t change my words for sure. So don’t waste your precious opportunity on that. Let’s test its ability to monitor the surroundings.”
"Okay. So how do you use this?" Fen followed suit and asked about another use.
By reciting the incantation, Lin directly activates the secret command engraved on the spy's eye. This is also one of the many ways to use magic items. But there was no sign of whether it was activated or not, and there was not the slightest fluctuation in power. This is because the Arcane Eye, like the earth's sonar, has two modes: passive reception and active detection. The former is secretive and difficult to detect, while the latter barely announces my arrival with a loud voice.
The Spy Eye, an ultra-small improved version of the Arcane Eye, does not have the ability to use active detection at all. On the one hand, the magic stone used as an energy source did not have enough power to do this; on the other hand, because the size and area were too small, Lin simply castrated that function. Various other setting functions can also be canceled if not necessary to save space for carving formation patterns.
After opening the spy's eye, Lin placed it near the head coffin. After some adjustments, the results detected by the spy's eye were quickly displayed. It was a scaled-down version of the three-dimensional image, and all the details were quite clear, no matter what angle you looked at.
In fact, this is the most original detection result of the Arcane Eye. Although the name of the magic is "eye", it has no direction of sight. Instead, it uses the prop or facility itself as the center point to collect all environmental data within a certain range in detail. It's just that in the past, the inventors of the Arcane Eyes used the crudest way to present these results.
And as Lin moves the spy eye, the real scene shown in the first coffin will also move accordingly. After such a test move, everyone also roughly discovered that the detection distance of the Spy Eye is only about five meters. Compared with the standard arcane eye, the detection range can easily be several kilometers, which is completely different from the same level. But compared to someone's own detection ability, the range of only one or two meters is much better.
The final test for the spy's eye is how long it can record the investigation results. To this end, Lin kept doing different actions to prove that every second of the clip was not a repeated or paused scene. When the investigation function was stopped, everyone played back the footage from the loop on the coffin and determined that the spy's eye could only retain footage for less than one minute.
This is just like the earth's monitoring system. When the hard disk capacity is limited, the software program will actively delete data starting from the oldest time series; the freed hard disk capacity will of course be used to store new monitoring images.
Although it was only for one minute, Lin did not need to monitor the changes in a certain place or observe the people coming and going. He only needs to know the environment of the destination, so one minute is more than enough.
When it was confirmed that all the tests had been completed, Liena Titov, who was more anxious than anyone else, couldn't wait to ask: "It seems that everything is ready, there is no big problem. When are you going to set off?"
"It's so urgent." Lin complained and then said: "I can hardly open my eyelids now, can you let me take a nap? You don't think that I would never put it down in this situation." Things are messed up.”
"Teacher, why don't you have breakfast?" Halumi asked.
The man, who was already a little delirious, scolded him directly: "Eat him. That thing is no different from shit. I'll starve him for a few times. It's just right. Don't eat! Anyway, what to do, wait for me Let's talk after you wake up." As soon as he finished speaking, Lin threw himself on the homemade camp bed and immediately lost consciousness, and bursts of snoring could be heard.
Several other people were also helpless about this. If they can do something for them, no one will refuse. Unfortunately, no one except himself has the means to take over what this human magician has done. Unless he completely overturns everything he has prepared and uses his own method to proceed.
Just like the Lich who can also use Flash, Liena could not ask her to cast the Eye of Spy on someone's behalf and then recycle it. Regardless of whether Fen can understand the principles of using the spy eye without an instruction manual; if she were asked to take action, she would not be so troublesome at all, both probing and hiding, for fear that she would be exposed. Discover.
The painting style of the Lich is always that I come gorgeously and I leave gorgeously, leaving only death and ashes everywhere. Looking for trouble out of nothing, turning small things into big things, and turning big things out of control is the aura of this lich. So whether Lin or the two apprentices, they tried their best not to let this person take action, lest they have to spend more energy to deal with the aftermath.
Liena also understands these truths. So no matter how anxious she was, all she could do was wait, otherwise what else could she do.
