Arcane Lord

No wonder Xia Duo is so excited. In the magical world, what is more exciting than "magic immunity + object immunity"?

Immortality and eternity may be true, but if there is no strong self-preservation ability, then even if it is true immortality and eternity, it will only be a flower in the mirror or the moon in the water, which will be broken at a touch.

If it were possible to achieve "magic immunity + material immunity", then Xia Duo would be extremely happy.

But being excited for a while was enough. After calming down, Xia Duo felt that he should not have too high expectations, lest the greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment.

It's better to treat it with a normal attitude. Anyway, the bloodline ability has been determined. All that's left is to discover it, understand it, and control it.

Thinking of this, Sha Duo simply came to Niya's magic laboratory and used the environment here to study his abilities.

…

In the field of human body research, Xia Duo is not good at it. He simply conducts experiments based on his past knowledge and experience.

For the physical defense test, he took out a small knife and tried to cut and prick his skin from light to heavy.

Of course, even if it was to test the bloodline ability, he didn't want to really hurt himself. He could just try it briefly. He could still grasp this point of propriety.

Mainly a qualitative, not quantitative test.

The results of the experiment surprised Xia Duo. When the knife came close to his skin, as he felt a slight resistance in his heart, the connection between the skin and the string of the magic network quickly mutated.

It becomes more regular and rhythmic, like a natural magic effect.

In reality, the knife was resisted by the skin, and a thin invisible force field extended from the body, resisting the knife forcefully.

Xia Duo continued to exert force, and the knife pierced the force field like a broken bamboo, leaving a very shallow white mark on his skin.

"As expected of an adamantine knife that can pierce dragon skin!"

Xia Duo was not too surprised that the knife could pierce the force field. Either spear or shield would always be at a disadvantage.

At the same time, he also saw that his skin was still very different from dragon skin.

The defense of his skin lies in this invisible force field, and the dragon skin itself has quite strong defense.

This is proven by the obviously different feel when paddling.

Of course, Xia Duo didn't continue to cut the skin deeply. This didn't make much sense. Even if his skin was not inferior to dragon skin, could he still peel his own skin to make boots?

As for the more specific defense test of this force field, he is not ready to continue it in the short term. One is that he is not familiar with the bloodline ability now, so the test cannot be complete. It is not too late to test it again when he is familiar with it.

The other is that no matter how strong the defensive effect of this force field is, the day it comes to use it, it will be too late.

He would rather never use this force field for the rest of his life than end up in a situation where he had to rely on it to survive.

After briefly testing the physical defense, Sha Duo continued to test the magic defense ability.

In fact, it is unnecessary to test this, because there is no fixed standard for magic defense ability, because many damaging spells are not displayed in the form of energy or elements.

For example, the very common [Magic Missile] uses an invisible physical force field to impact the target, which can basically be regarded as physical damage.

At this time, magic resistance in the usual sense will not play much role.

There are even many damaging spells that allow the target to function on its own, such as draining the air around the target, covering the target's mouth and nose, and banishing the target to the sky, the deep sea, or even an alien plane.

Can there be normal magic defense in this case?

After all, spells do not directly act on the target, but change the environment, change the space, and create special situations to cause damage.

The reason why Xia Duo continues to test is actually because he wonders whether the magic avoidance will manifest itself in the form of breaking the law.

Spell breaking is a broad category. Basically, as long as it is related to destroying the integrity or survival of magic, it can be called "spell breaking".

The most typical one is [Dispel Magic], a string of magic net that forcibly creates a magic calming field to smooth the area where the spell occurs, "breaking the spell" from the root.

Others, such as counterspell in real-time combat, can also be regarded as spell breaking, although it is only a method of spell counterattack, not a specific spell.

What goes deeper is the famous [Anti-Magic Field], which is a magic calming field similar to [Dispel Magic], but it is more thorough. It not only completely smoothes the magic network, but even the energy flowing in it will be stagnant.

In Xia Duo's view, only this kind of ability can be regarded as magic immunity. Otherwise, it can only be regarded as magic immunity by resisting forcefully, but it is just rough skin and thick flesh.

The specific test is also very simple. Xia Duo summons a ball of fire elements in a diffuse state. If it is compressed and supplemented with an explosive effect, it will be a [Fireball Technique].

[Fireball] itself can be canceled and countered, but the effect after the explosion of [Fireball] cannot be canceled. After all, it is just a momentary burst of elements. It is essentially a normal flame and has nothing to do with magic.

Xia Duo was not a masochist, so of course it was impossible to test himself with the [Fireball Technique]. He simply summoned a ball of dispersed fire elements.

If nothing is done, they will eventually dissipate in the confrontation with the normal environment of the main plane, or re-enter the magic network. In short, it is impossible to exist stably.

Their appearance did not bring much trouble to Xia Duo. In their dispersed state, they only slightly raised the surrounding ambient temperature.

Xia Duo put his hand deep into the ball of fire element, and felt nothingness. Only a faint warmth reminded him that there was a ball of fire element where he put his hand at the moment.

This behavior is not surprising, even if ordinary people put their hands in, there will be no harm.

Perhaps this is the so-called elemental resistance, but this is not Xia Duo's purpose.

Speaking of which, he does not have the ability to directly control the fire element. The basis for the existence of this fire element is Sha Duo's spell. When he tried to imitate the resistance of being cut by a knife before, the situation suddenly changed——

The diffuse fire element, which existed relatively stably just now, suddenly disappeared without a trace, and the foundation of their existence was destroyed!

Under the contrast of body sensations, Xia Duo even felt his hands were a little cold, but at this time he could no longer care about the body sensations.

He quickly took off the [Concentration Ring] on his hand and held it in his palm, while constantly trying to control the invisible force field on the surface of his body to reappear.

The new ability is not easy to control, especially when there is no real threat, but Xia Duo quickly overcomes these minor problems.

A moment later, in his magic vision, he discovered that the magic network string condensed on the [Ring of Concentration] had been forcibly opened, which meant that the magic ring had failed.

He couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, but during this distraction, the force field disappeared again, and the strings of the magic web on the ring quickly and automatically weaved a delicate and complicated structure until it returned to its original state.

"It seems that this new ability cannot really destroy magic items, it only temporarily suppresses magic."

This was a relief for Xia Duo. It was good to be able to destroy magic items, but it would not be good if it was oneself, or at least not convenient.

He now has multiple magic items with him at all times. If these items could be destroyed at any time, it would be a waste of time and money.

And in his vision, magic items will definitely be quite popular in the future. If he turns into a human-destroying machine, he doesn't know how much more money he will have to spend in the new era!

Now this situation is very good, the right amount but not excessive, which is in line with Chateau's philosophy.
