Arcane Lord

After a while, Iolum came to the laboratory, and Shado stopped the detection spell at the right time, walked over to him, and asked: "Teacher, will you conduct the ignition experiment as originally planned today?"

"Yes."

As Iolum spoke, he had already walked outside the floating field in the center of the laboratory that completely overlapped the micro demiplane.

At this time, in this experimental area with a diameter of more than 100 meters, the ring-shaped automatic David string component preparation machine has been removed, leaving only the spherical independent arcane fire device shining with strong magical light.

Although he had checked it countless times before, Iolum still checked it very carefully before "turning on". This process took more than an hour.

After the inspection, just when Shado thought the experiment was about to start, Iolum called him to his side and said, "You will start the equipment later."

"Me? Teacher, are you relieved?"

"What are you worried about? You have proven your ability during this period of time. Besides, it doesn't matter who starts an experiment that is destined to fail. If you haven't started it before, you can do it!"

"good!"

Iolum has said so, and Shado will naturally not refuse. In fact, he is also very curious, but the Tower of Time does not have enough arcane crystals, otherwise he might have tried several times in the Tower of Time privately. .

…

The activation method of the arcane fire device is very simple. Just like the use of magic items, just connect the intentionally left open part of the magic network string to form a circuit. There is no possibility of mistakes in Xia Duo's operation according to the instructions.

When this behemoth started up, a magical light that was so strong that it could almost be seen with the naked eye suddenly flashed.

Xia Duo narrowed his eyes subconsciously, and then the spiritual light level suddenly disappeared, but the next moment, another spiritual light lit up, and at the same time, each functional section of the entire spherical device also began to shine one by one.

Chateau, who has a thorough understanding of the device design, naturally knows that this is because the current stage of the David string cannot meet the full power operation of the device, and it is difficult to continue to operate even at the lowest power.

But even so, for a while, the laboratory was almost completely occupied by magical aura that could be directly seen with the naked eye.

Xia Duo clearly felt that Iolum was standing beside him, but he couldn't see anything in his field of vision. Everything was filled with auras that were almost as real as reality.

"It is expected that this device can last for more than 100 seconds. While it is still stable, you can collect some arcane energy first."

The normal light was blocked by the magical aura emitted by the device, but the sound was not obstructed. Instead, it stood out despite the loss of normal vision.

After hearing Iolum's reminder, Shado noticed that a large amount of arcane energy had escaped from the device. A large part of these arcana energies had been absorbed, guided, transformed and disappeared by the magic around the device.

But there are still many magic nets that are too late to react and are spreading throughout the laboratory. Of course, the farther away the magic nets are from the outside, the wider their coverage will be, and the absorption and transformation efficiency will be higher.

It is almost known that until the device is ten meters away, the dissipated arcane energy is almost completely extinct.

Within ten meters, the closer to the device, the higher the concentration of arcane energy in the space. Looking at this little bit of arcane energy flowing into the magic network, Sha Duo felt his heart bleed.

So he quickly cast a spell to create arcane crystals.

Fortunately, Xia Duo had already made preparations to collect arcane energy before. Otherwise, with only the 5-level [Create Arcane Crystal], he could only create one standard arcane crystal at a time. Under the current situation, that would be Too inefficient.

The spell that Xia Duo prepared was of level 8. It wasn't that it couldn't be higher, but it was unnecessary. The level 8 [Create Arcane Crystal] no longer had a manufacturing upper limit, but was related to the amount of arcane energy in a specific area.

If there are enough arcana, it is not a problem to collect hundreds of thousands of standard arcana crystals at one time.

This situation is just right!

In just one move, Xia Duo collected more than 500 arcane crystals the size of standard arcana crystals, which were almost as big as two steamed buns.

This is because the arcane energy is being rapidly absorbed by the magic network. If the absorption of the magic network is not considered, it can at least be doubled.

But the second time, maybe because the casting interval was too short, Xia Duo only collected arcane crystals as big as one and a half steamed buns, which is almost like 2 or 300 standard arcana crystals!

Although this number is a bit small, if the standard arcana crystal is replaced by a 10-level spell, it will be a lot.

Just grabbing it is the energy required for hundreds of 10th-level spells. This is just an experimental device that is doomed to fail. If it is the complete version of the Mysser Energy Core envisioned by Sha Duo, the arcane energy generated every day will be An astronomical number.

…

As time passed, Shado noticed that the aura of the device began to appear disordered, and only then did some details of the David string components begin to emerge from the previously strong aura.

At this moment, Iolum suddenly reminded: "It's already 100 seconds! Move back a little and take precautions!"

Upon hearing this, Xia Duo immediately checked the protective spells on his body and determined that these spells had not been affected by the previous arcane energy dissipation, nor had they been interfered with by the device itself.

However, he did not retreat. The experimental area where the device is now seems to be in the laboratory of the Arcane Federation on the main plane, but it is actually also in the micro demiplane at the same time.

As long as the two planes are separated before the device finally loses control and the device falls in the demiplane, no matter how it explodes, it will not affect the laboratory on the main plane.

Iolum's previous experiments had destroyed many laboratories, and this time he carried out this transformation at Sha Duo's suggestion.

In addition to being recyclable, it is of course also designed to accommodate the huge volume of the David string component automatic preparation machine.

In the past, Iolum's experimental arcane fire device was only about ten meters in size, which could be completely accommodated in the laboratory. However, the diameter of the current device is close to 100 meters, and it is impossible to accommodate it in the normal space of the laboratory.

Instead of having to repair it countless times after expanding the space, it is better to use a demiplane as an experimental site.

Even if it is an imperfect demiplane, its ability to deal with disasters is much stronger than that of a normal laboratory.

…

"105 seconds, 110 seconds,..."

As soon as the device became more and more unstable, Iolum still told the time very calmly, and when he counted to 117, the first disintegrated David string component finally appeared.

Shado noticed that the component was not a support component, but it was one of the components shared by multiple arcane fires. This also reflected the unreasonable design of the current device to a certain extent.

After the first David string component collapsed, the second, third, and even more collapses followed.

But Xia Duo has nothing to do next. He only needs to help take care of the main plane laboratory, which seems dangerous but is actually as stable as Mount Tai.
