Arcane Lord

After a while, Xia Duo stopped shaping the new function of the magic weapon, and took the crystal ball-like magic weapon closer to observe carefully. As expected, this magic weapon was indeed not a showpiece, and the magic was produced smoothly. Aura.

If you had never known the existence of psychic energy before, then if Xia Duo saw this scene now, he would probably be shocked and lament that it subverted his knowledge.

But now he can look at this situation more calmly.

Since the magical aura has been generated, it means that this spiritual magical weapon can be regarded as a magical weapon even if it is placed in the arcane magic system.

Since it is a magic weapon of the arcane system, we can examine its functions.

This is what Sha Duo did next. He did not use it immediately, but checked the specific functions of this magic weapon through arcane magic.

The results of this inspection were both expected and unexpected.

What was in line with expectations was of course what Xia Duo judged based on the few psionic magic weapons he had come into contact with before. After setting new functions on the psionic magic weapons, they actually did not have complete arcane magic details.

It looks like a defective product made by a poor apprentice. According to the logic of arcane magic, this magic weapon is completely unusable, but the fact is that there is some unknown force supporting the magic weapon. The device can be used normally.

Having had previous experience with psychic magic weapons, Xia Duo judged that the new magic weapon in front of him would be in the same situation, that is -

What the arcane mage saw as a defective product did not collapse on its own. Instead, it was able to exist stably and even function normally.

As for the surprise of this inspection, it is related to the "detection of psychic energy" function set by Sha Duo for this psychic weapon. The interaction with the magic network obviously includes the detection spell in arcane magic. some elements.

In other words, the detection spell of arcane magic can probably be used directly to detect psychic energy! And unlike what was thought before, arcane magic and psychic energy are insulated.

This discovery greatly increased Shado's confidence in continuing his research. He even thought, if arcane magic can directly detect spiritual energy, does it mean that spiritual energy can also be awakened within the framework of arcane magic?

If this is the case, it is not the fusion of arcane magic and psychic magic, but the arcane magic that greatly expands its boundaries.

At this moment, Xia Duo couldn't help but look forward to spiritual energy inexplicably.

…

Next, Shado still did not try to use this crystal ball-shaped psychic magic weapon that had just been given new abilities. Instead, he separately compiled and recorded the arcane magic elements he discovered from this magic weapon.

Then he tried to complete this unknown detection spell that might directly detect psychic energy.

In the spell-suppressing field, Shaduo kept trying these fragmented elements of the detection spell. If he just incorporated them into a detection spell, this would be easy to do.

After all, many spells add some redundant spell-casting elements out of confidentiality or to prompt spell-casting.

For example, if an experienced painter gets some broken pictures, he can easily combine them into a new painting. However, compared with what the full version of the broken pictures wants to express, the new painting may not be as expressive as it is. thousand.

Just like a painter can expand the combination of these broken pictures into many different new paintings, Shado can also design many different detection spells based on these detected arcane magic elements.

But unfortunately, Xia Duo's luck seems to have run out at this point.

Based on the more than 20 discovered arcane magic elements, he designed a total of nearly a hundred detection spells, many of which were of practical value. However, the problem was that none of the nearly 100 detection spells could detect psychic energy ( instrument).

This result somewhat dampened Sha Duo's enthusiasm. He tried to analyze the relationship between the more than twenty spell elements, but the spell elements themselves only had magical significance at the element level.

This is like asking what the meaning of a certain word in the program source code is. It is meaningful, but this meaning has little to do with the function expressed by the program.

The reason why Xia Duo considered the more than twenty detected spell elements to be part of the detection spell was mainly because he set up the function of detecting psychic energy for the crystal ball-shaped psychic magic weapon.

If the function he set is an attack spell, then he will definitely think that these more than twenty spell elements are part of an attack spell.

From a purely magical perspective, Xia Duo was actually unable to determine the ownership of these more than twenty spell elements.

After all, the spell elements themselves are the most basic units of spell casting, and they do have realistic magical significance, but their relationship with the spells they compose is like the relationship between letters and articles. In fact, there is not much relationship.

The research fell into a bottleneck for a while.

Shado can indeed organize his manpower to continuously design new detection spells that contain the elements of these spells, and then verify one by one whether they can detect psychic energy, but if he does this, the amount of work will suddenly increase.

And he had a direct feeling that a spell that could detect psychic energy might not be designed in an almost exhaustive way. He felt that there might be a key element missing.

This element does not necessarily refer to spell elements, but may also be some kind of psychic medium, or special environmental requirements.

…

Fortunately, Sha Duo never thought that he could just find a purely arcane means of detecting psychic energy. He temporarily put aside the research direction of combining and designing new detection spells, and instead tried the psychic magic weapon itself.

In the long run, it would indeed be of great significance to find a pure arcane psychic detection method, but for now, all he needed was a usable detection method, and it was not limited to arcane magic.

Looking at the brilliant crystal ball on the experimental table, Xia Duo put a finger on the edge of the crystal ball with great expectation, and then silently had a thought in his heart -

start up!

The next moment, the crystal ball suddenly burst into light, and then the space around the ball seemed to be shaken and became blurry. After that, a large amount of light purple mist emerged and spread to the surroundings.

Xia Duo's heart tightened when he saw this, but he did not stop him. Instead, he allowed the light purple mist to spread. He knew that the mist was not real, but an existence that was almost an illusion.

Soon, the fog spread to its limit, but it did not exceed the scope of the laboratory. It was roughly a spherical area with a radius of two meters. The facilities and equipment in the laboratory, and even Xia Duo himself, did not create any hindrance to the spread of the fog, except— —

A bracelet-shaped psychic weapon used for detecting targets on the experimental bench.

When the fog spread to a distance of about half a foot from the bracelet, it seemed to be blocked by an invisible force and bypassed from the side, so that in the end, a pancake-shaped hole was formed within the spherical fog with a radius of two meters. .

The center of the hollow is the bracelet-shaped psychic weapon!

"This - should be regarded as detecting psychic energy, right?"
