Arcane Lord

As for how to ask for help with psychic magic, Sha Duo thought of the Kalishi Rui psychic cabin on the Evereska side. Perhaps he could go through the channels of the Jinfeng family to find help, or of course he could go there in person.

As for the spiritual country in the south, Xia Duo has not yet contacted the idea of ​​​​contacting there. If it really attracts the attention of that country from the south, it will be a bit more gain than loss.

"I understand, teacher, if possible, please help me with this matter."

Shado knew that Iolum was connected to the psychic mage of Everriska, and once tried to send Lowe to the psychic kingdom of Zhamdas in the south to receive spiritual enlightenment, but Shado dissuaded him.

Now Luo Wei is still in the stasis chamber of the Tower of Time!

Thinking of this, Xia Duo felt that one day he would have time to release Luo Wei and cure him. Although Iolum rarely asked him about Luo Wei's condition, worry was unavoidable.

If it is cured as soon as possible, everyone will be relieved of their worries.

Iolum did not refuse Shado's request, but he could not guarantee that psionic magic would be able to do things that he could not do. After all, in his heart, he actually looked down upon psionic magic. of.

"I'll give you an answer before the end of the month, but don't have high expectations. If psychic magic is really that almighty, it won't be popular only in Zhamdas."

"I can understand it, and I can accept it no matter what the outcome is. Thank you, teacher."

After talking about these personal matters, Shado quickly turned the topic to his real intention of coming to see Iolum this time, and asked: "Does the teacher know about the leap beasts over there at the Ether Forward Base?"

"I know, what's wrong?"

"I think we can build a warp beast breeding farm in the base for sustainable development. Otherwise, after the current group of warp beasts that have migrated are hunted down, we may never find so many warp beasts again. "

Because it was for Iolum, Shado didn't lay too much groundwork and directly expressed his thoughts. If the Austrian Federation or the Seven Towers were unwilling to invest, then he also hoped to build a small breeding farm by himself.

"The breeding farm? Specializes in breeding warp beasts?"

Iolum was obviously shocked by Shado's idea, "Do you know the living habits of leap beasts? What do they usually eat? How much do they eat?"

"I don't know, but since they choose to migrate near the Aether Advance Base, there must be an environment suitable for their production. We just need to take advantage of it."

"Let me think about it."

At this moment, what Iolum was thinking about was not whether a warp beast breeding farm could be built, but what the significance of building a breeding farm would be. Just a nominal "sustainable development" could not impress him.

Iolum's hesitation was noticed by Shado. He was not sure what the teacher was hesitating about, but he had many other reasons ready:

"There are treasures everywhere on the leap beast. Its blood can be used to make starry sky ink, its meat is delicious and can be eaten, and its leather is a natural protective force field and a material for psychic spells. Of course, what I value more is its bones."

"What happened to the bones?" Iolum asked curiously.

In fact, he knew far more about leaping beasts than Xia Duo, but Xia Duo deliberately mentioned the skeleton. Is there any fact that he didn't understand?

"The skeleton of a leap beast can be made into magic items through simple processing. It is not even limited to the spell-like abilities possessed by the leap beast itself. I think there is a high probability that it can become the carrier of most spells."

After a pause, Sha Duo continued: "If the skeleton of the leap beast can be used to manufacture low-end magic items, first of all, it will help promote the spread of magic and even improve national power. Secondly, it can also save this part of mithril. , use it in more important areas.”

"Is that what you think?"

Valley

Iolum was thoughtful. He was noncommittal on the previous point. If he wanted to spread or even popularize magic, the resistance lay not in the number of low-end magic items, but in the conservative forces that were growing stronger day by day.

On the contrary, saving mithril made him very excited.

You must know that the refining of high-grade mithril is not lossless. In theory, even if the technology advances to the extreme, there will still be a considerable degree of loss.

If Nase Magic wants to develop to a higher level, high-grade mithril is almost an indispensable important resource. Although domestic mithril is no longer restricted by the Three Kingdoms Mithril Agreement and must be exported, if you process it yourself, there will be losses. On the contrary, it is bigger.

So in fact, Netheril still needs to import a large amount of high-grade mithril from the elves.

If there is a low-end alternative material, it can indeed relieve a lot of pressure. At least the low-end consumption will be less, which will allow the country to try a few more times, thereby having more opportunities to develop high-grade secrets that are closer to the elf refining efficiency. Silver refining technology.

The only problem now is——

Can warp beast bones really replace mithril?

This question is very important. Iolum cannot persuade the Seven Towers to make general strategic adjustments based on Shado's words alone. He must see tangible evidence, so he asked:

"What did you find? Are those bones really useful?"

"I haven't verified it in practice, but teacher, don't you think the properties of leap beast bones are somewhat similar to those of energy-conducting crystals?" Sha Duo asked rhetorically.

He originally thought that this question would be easy for Iolum to figure out, but he didn't realize it first and the other party had no similar idea at all. Even if he explicitly mentioned it at this moment, Iolum's reaction was a bit too slow.

"Energy-conducting crystal?"

Iolum's expression changed, as if he had thought of something, and he hurriedly asked Shado: "Do you have the skeleton of a leap beast on your body now?"

"have."

Xia Duo then took out a large bone with traces of snow-white flesh, handed it to the teacher, and asked curiously: "Hasn't the teacher seen the skeleton of a jumping beast before?"

"No, do you think I am so free that I have to look at every skeleton of a warp beast in person?"

After saying that, Iolum added, "Most of what I know about the Leap Beast is the information shared from the Seven Towers. Of course, I have seen the Leap Beast, but I didn't expect its skeleton to be like this!"

At this moment, Iolum had already made a simple inspection of the leap beast skeleton that Shado had taken out. He found that the properties of this skeleton were indeed somewhat similar to those of energy-conducting crystals.

Both use the special structure of the material itself to form various energy transmission channels. The properties of the jump beast's skeleton itself may be more inclined to the composition of force fields and psychic spells, and are not as versatile as energy-conducting crystals.

But compared to energy-conducting crystals that are very unstable and can only be stored in [extremely cold vacuum fields with low element activity], the skeleton of a leap beast derived from a living organism is undoubtedly much more stable.

Although Shado did not mention that this kind of bones can continue to be used to make magic items after being cooked in soup, Iolum can roughly guess one or two things from its own state of existence.

If this biological material can be deeply processed so that its energy-conducting properties are close to those of energy-conducting crystal, then it has the potential to fully replace mithril.

But then I thought about it, it is so difficult to refine natural materials like mithril, and the deep processing of biological materials like jump beast bones may only be more complicated.

But it’s still a thought after all!
