Arcane Lord

But fortunately, this super weapon that can be called a time-honored weapon is in his own hands. Even if he cannot find a protective method that can effectively compete with it in the future, Xia Duo, who has mastered the weapon of attack, will still have enough initiative.

In addition, during many tests, he also discovered another effect of [Light of Annihilation], that is, when the extreme entropy increase of matter and even space itself in a short period of time, it will expose more of the matter and space. Mystery.

In other words, he can delve into the nature of matter and space (plane) by constantly using [Light of Annihilation], which will undoubtedly be a huge help for his next research plan.

Xia Duo next plans to continue the research on the plane field that was temporarily suspended due to various emergencies. Although this plan had to be interrupted for some time, the restarted plan has research conditions that far exceed those before.

Not to mention the floating city, he can travel to different planes for on-site investigation, and the newly acquired [Light of Annihilation] can help him quickly unlock the mysteries of matter and space.

If you include the high-level mage talents attracted by the floating city after its debut, then maybe his research will yield results faster than according to the previous plan!

…

Back to the test itself, after repeated experiments, Xia Duo finally had to admit that [Light of Annihilation] still has a lot of room for improvement. At least for now, it is difficult to accurately control its power.

Especially when running at lower power, the energy is more obvious. Even if the controller is ready to hit the target, the energy dissipated after the target area is "annihilated" will still affect friendly units that may be around.

"Sure enough, it still needs to be used in conjunction with [Wide Area Restriction]!" Xia Duo couldn't help but sigh.

But in this case, he alone will not be able to control these war spells well. This problem will indeed be unsolvable in a short time. No matter what means he uses to assist the control, he will not be able to compete with the skilled full-scale state. Compare.

Fortunately, the upcoming trip is not a situation that requires high-intensity combat, but is more focused on demonstrating deterrence.

Now, Xia Duo has a general understanding of the power of [Light of Annihilation], and he believes that even a low-power [Light of Annihilation] is enough to act as a deterrent.

The [Light of Annihilation] developed by Yin Orem is much more effective than the original war spell of the elves. If it were to be unveiled, the elves would probably not be able to recognize it.

After all, the same phenomenon can correspond to many completely different implementation methods, let alone different phenomena. There may be doubts, but with a solid deterrent in hand, Xia Duo doesn't care at all.

Because he knows very well that even if the three war spells he has now have nothing to do with the elves, the elves will still have doubts and dissatisfaction. This is human nature.

…

The only thing that Shado felt a little regretful about in this actual test was that he couldn't run [Light of Annihilation] at full power. It wasn't that it wasn't possible, but that the red plane simply couldn't withstand such a torment.

This is a plane that is on the verge of death, and the essence of [Light of Annihilation] is extreme entropy increase. The encounter between the two really adds fuel to the fire and worsens the situation, causing the plane that still has a chance to be saved to quickly fall.

But as long as the weapon exists, there will definitely be a chance to use it. Even if it is not used in a war, Xia Duo can still find an opportunity to conduct an experiment similar to the nuclear explosion in his hometown on the main plane to demonstrate a stronger deterrent effect.

In addition, Xia Duo is not prepared to use it too much, and he also wants to actively promote the "Annihilation Non-Proliferation Treaty" within the Northern Alliance and even the entire main plane.

This is not only to ensure the safety of the main plane, the largest known habitable plane, but also to prevent the super weapons competition among the countries in the main plane.

Although it cannot be absolutely avoided, as long as you use it sparingly and with caution, you can somewhat reduce the intensity of the arms race.

Correspondingly, in order to cope with the worst possible outcome, plane exploration will become an important long-term strategy for Tower of Time in the foreseeable future.

If the gradual collapse of the Dragon Madness Mystery Lock prompted Xia Duo to want to find a livable plane as a last resort as soon as possible, then now there is another reason.

If a large livable plane can be found, even if the main plane is destroyed by a "global nuclear war", there is still a final escape route. Otherwise, living in this main plane that is full of crises and may explode at any time is really frustrating. People are a little scared.

…

Next, Xia Duo began to assemble war spells onto the floating city and find a way to connect them to the mystery lock so that he could control it more conveniently.

However, forcibly combining products that were not originally from the same system will reduce the accuracy of war spells. If you want to improve the accuracy, you need to adjust it through repeated experiments.

However, war spells themselves are not that accurate in a short period of time, and Xia Duo has long ago decided to use [Light of Annihilation] in conjunction with [Wide Area Restriction], so this decrease in accuracy does not make much difference to him.

Furthermore, the main purpose of Xia Duo's trip this time was not directly related to war magic. He just wanted to find a more suitable opportunity to bring the floating city to the main plane.

In order to reduce the various temptations that may be encountered in the future, it is best to show sufficient deterrence on the first appearance. This deterrence can come from war spells or from the floating city itself.

If the floating city itself is a enough deterrent, Xia Duo doesn't want to expose additional war spells. There must be enough gain from using this thing for the first time.

Similar to the emergence of the floating city this time, the gain is the crucial influence of the Northland, as well as the floating city itself.

After all, if this thing is kept in a foreign plane without being used, it will be the same as nothing!

…

There is no difficulty in the assembly work. After all, the actual test has been carried out. The only thing that is a little difficult is to connect the mystery lock, but this does not trouble Xia Duo, and the work is progressing steadily.

While Shado was busy with the final work of connecting war spells, Brundes from the outside came to the Tower of Time again with the purpose of inviting Shado to Severton to attend a tea party organized by the Seven Towers.

Niya met Brundes on behalf of Shado, but she had already received Shado's signal - to delay as much time as possible until Shado came back from the azure plane.

Therefore, Niya always casually avoided Brundes' request to see Shado or convey it on his behalf, and asked Aiboike to persuade him to drink tea.

If it were in the past, Niya would have been reluctant to serve out the "Bonu No. 1" quality second only to the original leaves to entertain guests, but not long ago when she saw the thriving tea trees in the Arcane Garden, She suddenly became more open-minded.

Now in the Arcane Garden of the Tower of Time, there are not only Bonu tea trees, but also other tea trees with a variety of flavors and effects that are not inferior to Bonu tea.

As long as those tea trees grow up, there will no longer be a need to import them at high prices from the elves or even smuggle them.
