Arcane Lord

Although Broad said that the talents of the other three are not inferior to Lowe, in fact the gap should be quite obvious.

At least from Chateau's perspective, Lowe was young and promising and looked to be in his thirties, while Boges, Olsson and Galvani all looked old with autumn frost on their temples.

Although appearance doesn't prove anything, it's possible that Luo Wei is good at keeping his appearance, but one side can keep his appearance while the other can't. Isn't this a gap?

In fact, Xia Duo is more willing to believe that the thirty-year-old Luo Wei appears at this moment is his true age, because generally those who can become arcanists are not too old.

After that, it's a matter of talent and longevity. As long as you live long enough, you can eventually become a great arcanist.

But human lifespan is limited. Even if you include life extension spells, it is difficult to reach the level of elves. Under normal circumstances, if a human cannot become a Grand Arcanist before the age of forty or fifty, then his life will basically be That's it.

Along the way, Xia Duo knew very well that the key to becoming a great arcanist may depend more on luck to a certain extent, that is, the advancement during the high-level mage period.

It does not exclude those who have accumulated little experience and are late bloomers, but if they are one step ahead of others in the initial stage, it is meaningless that they have already half-stepped on the threshold of the great arcanist.

Now Luo Wei looks very young and has already become a senior arcanist. If nothing happens, a great arcanist will be born under Iolum in the future.

As for Burgess, Olsson and Galvani, even if their talents are not inferior to Lowe, they are a step behind in the starting stage, and there is little hope of making up for it in the later stage.

Xia Duo himself came into contact with the tenth level of magic quite naturally and hardly felt any difficulty, but for an ordinary mage, it would be very difficult. This step is generally called the "curse at the end of the magic web".

Only by breaking the "curse" can you become a legend, and only by becoming a legend can you catch up with the great arcanists of your peers and even the younger generations.

As for how to break the "curse", Xia Duo had never heard of it, and his own experience could not be used as a reference.

But when you see Cliff next time, you may want to ask around. Among the more than ten great arcanists in Netheril today, only Cliff and Magna advanced directly from the legendary mages.

Others advanced to arcanist level at the high-level mage stage, and then grew up naturally.

Just looking at the ratio on the surface, the ratio of non-legendary to legendary is at least 6:1, and if we count the ones hidden by the Seven Towers and the very few people who voluntarily hide them (such as Jenna), the ratio is even greater.

This shows how difficult it is to achieve a "legend".

However, Xia Duo did not look down on the three Burgess because of this, because he had basically mastered the "regret medicine". Since it was so difficult to become a legend, it would be fine not to take this path.

Use [Negative Energy Degradation] to accurately disintegrate and destroy the caster's ability to perceive the magic network and the magic network's response to the caster's perception, causing the caster to return to a stage where he can only sense the first five layers of the magic network - —That is, at the high-level mage stage, you can advance to the arcanist level again.

However, the impact of this irreplaceable technology is very important, and to some extent is no less important than the Miseron core.

Naturally, Xia Duo couldn't easily take it out for these three so-called "fellow disciples" whom he had only met once. It was possible in the future. I just hoped that these three fellow disciples could survive until that time!

…

After some simple greetings, Broad quickly got to the point and talked about the problems in the automatic preparation mechanism of David's string components——

"We checked the preparation machine drawings you left behind and found that the existence of the David string component design drawing plug-in is very strange. It seems to be very closely connected with the overall preparation machine. It can be perfectly integrated into the preparation machine to serve as the data core, but it can exist independently. , the peeling does not affect the normal operation of the preparation machine, how is this achieved? "

When Brod said this, Chateau immediately understood that these people did not have problems in making the David string preparation machine, but in understanding the working principle of the preparation machine.

As for the problem of Brod and others, if these people were from Earth, it would be easy to explain, but they are aliens from other worlds who have never been exposed to programming, which is difficult to explain.

Are we talking about concepts such as modular design and plug-ins?

Chateau could only use more "magic" language to explain all this, "You have to think of this preparation machine I designed as a tangible micro-mystery.

“Even without the David String Component Design Drawing plug-in, the functions of My Lock are relatively complete. Adding the David String Component Design Drawing plug-in is equivalent to sending an instruction to My Lock, and My Lock will naturally respond.

"As for how to achieve this, look here -"

With that said, Xia Duo took out a copy of the backup drawings he had kept, and first outlined for them the elements of the David String component design included in the plug-in drawings of the David String component design, and then erased those elements of the component design. , only explained in terms of plug-in elements.

After putting aside the complicated elements of the David string component design, nearly 90% of the entire preparation machine drawing was instantly reduced, and the remaining parts were much easier to explain.

It is nothing more than issues such as connection, transformation, and interaction between element units with different functions.

Chateau speculated that Broad might not be familiar with the design of the spherical core radial configuration of the independent arctic fire device he designed. If he was familiar with it, it would not be difficult to peel off the David string component design in the preparation machine drawings.

Of course, it is also possible that this is a trick of Iollum and Broad to urge him back.

It's rare to be confused!

After Xia Duo carefully explained the design principle of the preparation machine, he was ready to go to the laboratory prepared for him. Iollum had previously said that six more laboratories had been renovated, and now there are six people here, isn't it one for each person!

"Broad, do you have any questions?"

"No, after listening to your explanation, I feel that the whole person has become clear."

"No, that's good, then I'll go and get busy first, and contact you if there is anything."

After that, Xia Duo and the other four nodded and left Laboratory 012.

...

Just near Laboratory 012, Xia Duo randomly found Laboratory 015 and tried to enter. As expected, he had the authority, and Iollum had arranged it.

In the center of the laboratory, in the overlapping area of ​​the half plane, a small wooden box was quietly suspended there. It seemed that the suspension field required for the experiment had been arranged here.

However, after Shado got closer, he found that this was not an ordinary suspended field, but a demiplane that highlighted its own characteristics when the planes overlapped.

In other words, the central area of ​​this laboratory overlapped a special demiplane without gravity.

Perhaps it was to save costs, but it didn't matter. The key was that this special demiplane itself made Shado feel happy.

If he hadn't come to study the independent fire device, he might have been torturing a demiplane he created!

Now seeing such a special demiplane, how could he not be excited!

"Good guy, Iolum is really a big treasure!"
