MTL - Studying Science in the Alternate World-Chapter 223 Intermediate Arcane Mage
Chapter 223 Intermediate Arcane Mage
Talent is to be displayed, so as to stabilize people's hearts.
The art model of the Arcane Artifact, which was developed after Xiaoyi's crazy calculations, has achieved the ultimate in details, and it is no problem to say that it is a flawless work.
So the hand of this arcane weapon made Suktara fully feel the extent of Duke's talent.
"He is far beyond my imagination, Su Li, you know, I now have sufficient confidence that the ring replication material will be realized in Duke's hands." Facing his big butler, Suktara confided his heart softly.
The butler Su Li responded calmly: "Your Excellency Duke is a calm and studious scholar of arcane law. He possesses the qualities of success."
"I really want to see the day when he realizes the ring copying material for me." Suktara said, shaking his head suddenly, "Unfortunately, I am destined not to see it. To realize it, at least the level of a 3-ring arcanist is required. It's too long ago!"
"Maybe, there will be a chance, old lady." Su Li comforted, "Spirituality favors you and Your Excellency Duke, everything is possible."
"No matter how caring spirituality is, we must abide by the basic laws... In fact, it's nothing. Compared with my huge regrets before, this is only a small regret. How can a person have no regrets in this life? I'm already luckier than most people."
Living to be more than one hundred and sixty years old, Suktara can see many things.
Su Li did not speak, and silently poured a glass of red wine for Suktarah. The old lady is used to drinking a glass of red wine before going to bed every day.
With more time during the day, there is no need to teach every night.
Let Suktara appreciate his own work to increase the teacher's confidence in him, and Duke began to prepare for the hand of casting the arcane weapon.
The industry is already being transferred, and all the experimental materials in the mage tower are also open to Duke.
So he can call up the spiritual materials he wants at will, and then use the alchemy techniques he has learned to refine these materials into arcane materials one by one.
The casting process formulated by Xiaoyi is hung on the Dou Qi holographic screen.
Duke can proceed in an orderly manner, arrange the best casting method in the shortest time, and complete the casting independently.
During this casting period, Suktarah was not intrusive.
Only occasionally enter the laboratory, standing silently beside Duke, and look at Duke who is meticulous in refining materials with gratified eyes.
The process of refining materials is not all smooth sailing, even with Xiaoyi's detailed strategy, there will still be times of operational errors.
Just as when making a card, it is necessary to draw and engrave the energy lines according to the texture of the card material. When refining the material, it is also necessary to fine-tune the output of its own spiritual energy according to the spiritual density of the material itself. Once there is the slightest mistake, the spiritual material may be destroyed.
However, with the correct strategy, generally speaking, Duke has a very high success rate in refining materials.
Among the alchemists of the 1st level, I am afraid that no one has a higher success rate than Duke, even if his micro manipulation talent is mediocre.
"Some arcane masters have a pair of skillful hands that are more sensitive than their minds. I'm a little short." Duke knew this well. If he left Xiaoyi, he might not even be able to be promoted as an arcanist. "But when I make the hands of arcane weapons, this defect can be made up for."
The Austrian hand will be his most dexterous hand.
A week passed in a hurry, and Duke successfully completed the refining of all the materials, and he could start formally casting the Hand of the Arcane Weapon.
Only Suktara and Terrence were watching his casting process this time in the laboratory.
Usually, the arcane weapon is used as the hole card, and the arcane mage rarely discloses it to the outside world, but it does not have to be kept secret. After all, the arcane mage always uses the arcane weapon. Once used, it is difficult not to be known by others. So Duke doesn't mind other people watching.
"Terrence, do you think Duke can successfully forge his own master?" Suktara communicated with Terrence while watching Duke operate through the glass wall.
Terrence nodded: "It will definitely succeed."
"Are you so sure?"
"I have come to watch Duke's operations many times. His proficiency in operations has surpassed mine, and his thinking is much clearer than mine." Terrence said realistically, "I have studied alchemy with you for seven or eight years, which is not as good as what Duke has learned in one year."
Suktara smiled happily.
Then he comforted: "You don't have to belittle yourself, Duke's talent is rare in the world, and it is unfair to compare him with him."
"Yes, he is the proud son of heaven."
"Undoubtedly yes."
After finishing speaking, neither of them spoke again, but patiently watched Duke on the other side of the glass wall, and began to refine the spiritual material bit by bit.
The step of refining the spiritual material is not difficult.
As long as you have hands.
So just one hour later, the last bit of material on the test bench was refined by Duke with psionic energy, and then Duke closed his eyes.
…
In the spiritual sea, as the spiritual material turned into light spots, the spell model of the Hand of the Arcane Artifact was outlined in the orbital space, and when the last light spot merged into it.
The spell model suddenly shone brightly, as if the mysterious hand, which was originally just a model, suddenly came alive.
It was an amazing feeling, and Duke had a clear connection with the Arcane Hand.
It seems that I have grown a third hand.
It was also at this moment that his knowledge of spiritual mysteries increased a bit, and several chaotic places in the past suddenly became clear.
The missing key part of the evolution of the spiritual core is also completed at this moment.
"Congratulations, master, the first ring of the spiritual core has been officially cultivated, and the second ring of the spiritual core has jumped out of the second ring at the end of the loop, officially promoted to the second ring intermediate arcanist!" Xiaoyi's reminder flashed by.
Duke didn't care.
His attention is attracted by the changes in the spiritual sea at this moment. The spiritual core originally in the center of the spiritual sea has expanded to the entire spiritual sea. The huge energy line extends to the boundless direction, but he can clearly see the whole picture.
It is a zigzag and meandering line, outlining a spherical structure like a ball of wool.
And on the surface of the spherical structure, a second layer of energy line loops is extended, and this energy line loop is still in the standard circular shape.
Like a planetary ring on a certain planet.
2 rings!
Duke opened his eyes wide. Although he was in a state of internal vision at the moment, his thinking still had the movement of "opening his eyes wide", enjoying his newborn second ring.
At the same time as the second ring was born, various visions of the exclusive meditation method were constantly blooming.
Wildflowers, wheat seedlings, branches, ants, stones, swirls, white paper, rainbows, spirit crystals, spears, sea scorpions, everywhere, disillusionment and illusion.
Especially on the spherical structure of the spiritual core, these visions become more brilliant, as if growing out of the spiritual core, it is a native scene of this planet-like spiritual core.
There is also a guardian and mysterious vine, which grows from the spiritual core and wraps the entire spiritual core into a green planet.
On the orbital space of the 1st ring not far away, the shield-shaped arcane shield, the illusion of multicolored light, the healing technique of white light, a ring of sand eagles, and the newly cast hands of arcane weapons are all rotating around the spiritual core in an orderly manner.
On the 9-ring orbital space farther away, the 9-ring Xiaoyi is running alone.
Duke's thinking plunged into the interior of the spiritual core planet, and when he saw the center of the planet, a portal clearly appeared.
This is the Twisted Ring.
Push open the door, and there are scenes of images hidden there.
It is the place where Duke lived before crossing, the hometown that will never be forgotten-the earth.
From small to large…
From a happy family to a lonely family...
From penniless to soybean oil factory owner...
From home to the Falcon Club, to the scene of gun practice before crossing...
After watching the video carefully, Duke's heart, which was restless because of his promotion to the 2nd ring, suddenly calmed down.
He closed the door.
When I look at the spiritual sea again, all the previous visions have dissipated, and the spiritual sea is still a boundless spiritual sea, and the spiritual core is still shining faintly in the center of the spiritual sea.
Everything seems to have never changed.
But he knew that the 2-ring spirit core and the 2-ring orbital space were the biggest changes.
In essence, there is not much difference between the 1st ring, 2nd ring, and 3rd ring. They all belong to the category of ordinary arcane mages. It is just the expansion of the orbital space of the ring, allowing arcan mages to build more arcane wonders, arcane weapons, and strengthen their own levels of spiritual power.
The ring is the cognition of spiritual mysteries.
Ring 1 is the first level of cognition, and ring 2 is the second level of cognition, so at this moment Duke can feel the subtler level that he couldn't feel before with the help of psionic power.
For example, ring 1 is a microscope with magnification of 50 times, then ring 2 may be a microscope with magnification of 500 times.
The increase in the multiple means that the details that can be observed by the microscope will also be greatly improved, which is similar to the ring level of the arcanist.
"Huh!"
Duke behind the glass wall exited Linghai Inner Vision and opened his eyes.
Seeing Suktara and Terrence outside the glass wall, he couldn't help showing a smile, and then strode out of the laboratory.
"Teacher, Terrence."
"How?" Suktara asked.
"The casting has been completed." Duke said, with a thought.
The next moment, a gleaming white crystal arm appeared out of thin air in front of his chest. This hand was like a normal person's arm, and one could find that it was woven from countless transparent crystal threads just by looking closely.
Although each strand of crystal thread is transparent, the refraction of light is chaotic due to entanglement with each other, thus forming a brilliant white luster.
"That's good!" Suktara nodded, looking at Duke, "But I feel that some kind of change seems to have happened to you just now. This change feels very familiar to me, like a sublimation of psychic power. What happened?"
Duke withdrew the hand of the arcane weapon, and did not immediately test the function of the hand of the arcane weapon. This is the personal privacy of the arcane mage, and he can test it in private later.
He praised: "Teacher, your perception is still so sharp."
Terrence didn't understand, so: "Psychic sublimation, what does that mean?"
Suktara didn't speak, but looked at Duke gently.
Duke smiled, and said softly: "Terrence, the sublimation of psychic power means that I have been promoted to the level 2 arcanist."
"What!" Terrence was stunned.
Suktara also narrowed her eyes, although she had expected it, but hearing the news of the promotion from Duke himself still made her very excited.
"After casting the Austrian hand, I had a feeling in my heart for a moment, and I broke the opportunity that I lacked before, and I was promoted smoothly." Duke said relaxedly, "Thanks for the spiritual care for me, I didn't expect to be promoted so smoothly."
"Arcanist of Ring 2..." Terrence took a full minute to digest this information, "This should be the record for the fastest promotion to Ring 2, right?"
In historical records, there have been countless talents.
There are those who just opened their spiritual seas, solidified their spiritual cores in one go, and were promoted to arcane mages; they only opened their spiritual seas after taking drugs, and eventually grew into 8-ring Huiyue arcane instructors.
There are arcane masters who have an epiphany and are directly promoted to two rings; there are also arcane masters who are trapped in the limit of their lifespan, suddenly enlightened and promoted, and have been promoted since then;
But in these records, there are very few about the promotion of the 1st ring to the 2nd ring.
There is no other reason.
1 The Arcane Mage has just pushed open the door of spiritual arcana. It takes time to reorganize meditation, to build arcane wonders, to lay a solid foundation and to practice arcane art hard. No matter how talented an arcanist is, this process will not take a short time.
Only Duke.
Xiaoyi practiced for him 24 hours a day, saving him a lot of time, allowing him to concentrate on studying various fields, and constantly expand his understanding of spiritual mysteries.
This is the only way to complete the feat of promotion from the 1st ring to the 2nd ring in two and a half years.
"Undoubtedly yes." Suktara said affirmatively, "I checked the records of the Seven Towers Federation. The last record holder who was promoted from the 1st ring to the 2nd ring was six years and seven months. Duke rang the bell in September 4412. Now it is March 4415, exactly two and a half years!"
"The record has been improved by more than four years!" Terrence felt bitter while feeling emotional.
He is very self-aware, knowing that he belongs to the most mediocre kind of arcanist, so he has always relaxed his mind.
However, seeing an arcane mage who has been promoted to the second ring in two and a half years, he still feels a little bit broken in his heart.
So much time.
It was him who seemed to have just reorganized the meditation method in two and a half years, and barely managed to fiddle with the four visions that come with the meditation method.
At that time, he was fully focused on reorganizing the meditation method. He neither built arcane wonders, nor practiced active arcane arts, nor forged arcane weapons. In fact, until today, he has not forged arcane weapons, because the second arcane wonder has not been built yet.
But not only has Duke done everything in an orderly manner, but now even the spiritual core has evolved to the second ring.
The gap between people is really like a gap.
"Spiritual favor, this is a great joy, Duke, the teacher is really proud of you." Suktara gently hugged Duke.
this moment.
She suddenly felt that maybe she might not be able to see the day when Duke conquered the copying materials of the ring.
Two and a half years from the 1st ring to the 2nd ring, then ten years, is it enough to be promoted from the 2nd ring to the 3rd ring? If there is no accident, she still has more than ten years to live. Perhaps, she can really realize her wish in this life, and she can cast the ring of projection even when she sees ordinary arcanists.
It is destined to be an epoch-making research to popularize the powerful means of great arcane mages to ordinary arcane mages.
Thinking of this, Suktara's eyes turned red.
Duke saw this, just thought it was the teacher crying for him, gently wiped the tears for Suktara, and said with a smile: "Teacher, this is a big surprise. If you cry like this, in a few years, won't you be blinded by crying."
"You child." Suktara suppressed tears and said lovingly, "No matter how nice you say, you can't move the teacher."
"I will do it with action."
"Okay, it's a deal, the teacher can wait for you to do what you say."
"It's a deal."
The old and the young looked at each other and smiled, and Suktar pulled Duke out: "I'll talk about the future, today is your moment of glory, and you must let the entire Heijiaohe land, no, the entire Seven Towers Federation, come and share it!"
"Where are you going?" Duke asked.
"Go to Faling Pagoda, and wait for everyone's compliments. I believe that even the old man Keystone will come to Faling Pagoda in person to congratulate you." Suktala can't wait, this is her successor, the successor who inherits the mantle.
The two quickly left the laboratory.
Leaving Terrence stunned in place, bitter and astringent in his heart: "Should mediocre people be ignored, will mediocre people become transparent?"
thought about it.
He strode out, chasing after Suktara and Duke: "I am the arcane mage of the Suktara Mage Tower, and I owe Duke's glory...I handed him the materials!"
…
Faling Tower.
Joanna Lynx was yawning idly. As a level 1 Arcanist, practicing arcane art is the most important practice.
However, arcane skills are most suitable for training on the battlefield. There is no battle in Cuihai Valley right now, and there are not many opportunities to participate in battles, so Joanna occasionally thinks of her serious job—the director of the promotion department of the Magic Tower, responsible for managing the promotion of arcane mages.
Faling Tower manages the personnel files of all practitioners in the Seven Towers Federation.
It can be roughly equivalent to an organization department.
She is here on errands, and there may not be one or two jobs that need to be dealt with in a year, and she usually comes to read the newspapers.
"My lord!" The assistant knocked on the door and came in, panting.
"What's the matter, you're in a panic." Joanna carefully polished her nails with a small file, "Is there another meeting or something?"
"No, my lord in charge, there is an arcane mage who has been promoted, so come to change the information!" The assistant gasped.
"An arcane mage has been promoted, who is it?" Joanna became interested.
"It's Lord Duke."
"Who, Duke?" Joanna's eyes widened. "I'm afraid you're not kidding me. I'm too familiar with Duke. It hasn't been three years since he rang the bell. How could he be promoted? No, it's impossible for him to be promoted in a sea of anger and blood."
As a good friend, Joanna naturally knew that Duke Qi Haixiu was already a 2nd-ring elf envoy, and Xuehai Xiuxiu was also a 1st-ring great knight.
With these two identities, it is basically impossible to be promoted again in leisure.
"It's absolutely true, Lord Duke has come, accompanied by Lord Suktarah himself, clearly stating that Lord Duke has been promoted to the 2nd Ring Arcane Mage." The assistant has calmed down his breath, "So you need to be in charge, sir, to review the materials yourself."
"Impossible, how is this possible!" Joanna muttered, and she had already rushed out of the office quickly.
Take the ladder to the VIP room on the second floor.
Then I saw three arcane masters, Duke, Suktara, and Terrence, resting on the sofa, waiting for the data review.
"Joanna, you are here." Duke greeted, "Why are you in the mood to come to Faling Pagoda to work today?"
For a noble arcanist like Joanna, it doesn't make much sense to go to work. After all, the output of her own fief is enough for her cultivation. Even if the title and fief of Baron Bobcat will be inherited by her brother Jodick in the future, she will not be missing.
"I'm the director of the promotion department, of course I have to come to work." Joan turned to greet Suktara, and then asked, "Duke, are you here to go through the promotion procedures?"
"yes."
"Have you been promoted to the level 2 Arcane Mage?"
"yes."
"My God, spirituality is on top, have you really been promoted?" Joanna exclaimed.
"It's absolutely true." Duke stood up, suddenly inspired, cleared his throat, and said calmly, "In front of you is Duke, a 2-ring arcane mage who has been practicing for two and a half years. He likes card making, alchemy, poetry reciting, and natural history."
This introduction is really embarrassing.
But for Duke, after being promoted to the second ring and showing his talents, he is already qualified to do whatever he wants and play a little awkwardly.
Joanna suppressed the shock in her heart and said solemnly: "I need to take you to the test. If you can pass the test equipment, I will update the information for you...Did you know Duke, if you update the information, you will become the fastest promoted 2-ring arcanist in the entire Seven Towers Federation!"
"Be prepared."
"Also, I don't know if you are the youngest ring 2 Arcanist. I have to check the information." Joanna said.
Suktara smiled: "Then let's go to the test together, and you can check the records by the way, let us see it too."
"Okay, Lord Suktarah." Joanna nodded.
Leading a group of people to the testing room, there is a professional quasi-arcane weapon in the Faling Pagoda, which was refined by the instructors of the Faling Tower, and it is specially used to test the level of Linghai.
Linghai cannot be spied on.
The machine only obtains feedback from Linghai through some form of spiritual interaction, and finally determines the level of Linghai.
Before Duke and others reached the testing room, several arcanists from the Faling Pagoda hurried over, and even the chief director, Orucci, rushed over in person.
"Your Excellency Orucci." Suktara greeted.
"Your Excellency Suktala." Auluqi saluted, then turned to look at Duke, "I got the news, Duke, you come here to go through the promotion procedures. Are you really promoted to the 2nd Ring Arcane Mage, and you have completed the spiritual core evolution after two and a half years of practice?"
"Yes, Chief Director."
"Hiss...the young man is awesome!" Orucci took a breath, and then recovered his indifference, "Then go for the test first, Joanna, and immediately update the information for Duke after the test, and then submit the information to the Faling Pagoda in Runwu City."
"Yes, Chief Director." Joanna quickly led Duke into the testing room.
The rest are waiting outside the testing room.
After a while, all the arcane masters who were working in the Faling Pagoda had crowded to the door. Director Philibel and Suktara are old acquaintances, and asked in disbelief: "Teacher, is Duke really promoted?"
Suktara was all smiles, very proud: "Isn't it, this child is very much favored by spirituality."
Philipel exclaimed: "I really didn't expect it. How long has it been? Duke is a 2-ring arcane mage just like us."
Standing next to another director, Bartello, said quietly: "Philipel, Duke is different from us. He also has the title of polymath."
The ring level of the Arcane Mage is very important.
But having a scholar title or not is also an important status symbol.
"Now, when we see Duke, we have to salute him first." The director Marshall sighed. He is also a 2-ring arcanist, and he also does not have the title of scholar.
Back when Duke had just been promoted to an arcanist and came to register at the Faling Pagoda, the three directors could still encourage the sixteen-year-old genius arcanist with the mentality of their seniors.
Never thought about it.
In just two and a half years, Duke not only caught up with them in terms of cultivation level, but also gained the status of a scholar, directly surpassing them.
The chief director, Orucci, is fine. Not only is he a third-ring arcane mage, but he still has a higher level than Duke, and he also has the title of a contract scholar.
So I was more calm in my mentality, and said to Suktara: "You have taught a good student, and you have really found a successor for you."
"Yes, Duke will fulfill my wish." Suktara firmly believed in this, "Oluqi, once Duke fulfills my wish, you have to thank him too."
"If you can really realize your research project, don't ask me to thank you, I'm willing to give up the position of the chief director of Faling Pagoda to Duke." Auluqi shook his head and laughed, "But I'm afraid that by that time, Shenjiao City will no longer be able to keep him."
Suktara thought it right: "Yes, Duke should target the Holy City of Arcana. The pool in the Heijiao River is too small and the water is too shallow."
Orucci said: "I hope so."
About a quarter of an hour later, the door of the testing room opened, and Duke walked out following Joanna with a calm expression.
As for Joanna, she already clenched her fists and shouted: "Now, let me introduce to you the handsome guy behind me...He is the 2nd-ring Arcane Mage, the Polymath, the 2nd-ring Elf Envoy, the 1st-ring Great Knight, and Duke the Son of the Sun!"
