In the process of studying alchemy, Xia Fan discovered more and more clearly that as long as you know the principle of something, turning it into a magic is not as difficult as imagined.
And this "principle" is very flexible.
The ancients regarded lightning-struck wood as a material that retains lightning, and used it to perform shock techniques. It can also be successful, but its power is far less than that of a copper wire pendant.
But the copper wire pendant is not a perfect thing.
With research funds and Mo Yun's assistance, he also tried to restore the hand-cranked generator and the potato battery. The power of the former's shock spell was a bit higher than that of the copper wire pendant, while the latter's thunder or streamer spells were similar to those of lightning strikes. It's not quite the same, but it can replace the snake's spine to perform the Snake Shadow Technique, and consumes less energy. Both experiments show that qi itself is more like a black box. The deeper the understanding of a thing, the better the feedback effect. ,
Of course, there are still many doubts about this "in-depth". For example, in addition to the shock technique, he also tried to improve the Li technique. After all, the two are connected to each other in the hexagram position, and Li Huo is also a magic technique known for its lethality. When studying "Flying Flower Flame", he concluded that "flame is a manifestation of combustion", "flame is an oxidation-reduction process", "flame is a form of plasma", and "there is only a small amount of plasma on the surface of the flame, and the light and heat come from electron transitions" "These four descriptions are used to draw talismans, but the improvement effects are almost non-existent, and the effects of the latter two are even lower than the first two, and the four combined are not as good as the improvement of directly purifying saltpeter and using it as a medicine guide. big.
This illustrates two points. First, triple techniques or multiple techniques seem to complement each other. In fact, the weights are quite different. Consciousness comes first, and the more the introduction can achieve the results desired by consciousness, the more the power of alchemy can be enhanced. Although talismans, spells, shouts and other methods have been improved, their effects are diminishing. In other words, if the introduction of materials is not in place, there is no point in making the talismans extravagant.
Second, there may be certain differences in the underlying rules of the world. As a real thing, consciousness has a greater microscopic impact on all things than he expected.
These conclusions not only guided the curriculum design of the school, but also determined the main direction of his research on alchemy - to reduce the difficulty of the theoretical threshold as much as possible, and at the same time look for things that are suitable for easy mass production as magic introduction materials, so that more people who are sensitive to Qi can learn. Be able to participate in the use and research of Qi.
The glass and bamboo silk bottle in my hand is an attempt under this idea.
When double cast, it's certainly a highly effective flare.
But combined with the amplification circuit talisman removed from the Privy Council's magic "Nine Nether Fire", it became something else.
Xia Fan threw it up high and shouted loudly, "The shock technique returns to Chen, shine brightly!"
The moment the bottle disappeared, a huge ball of light appeared above the sailing warship. Its brightness was so high that it was impossible to look directly at it. The world shrouded in darkness suddenly regained its light, and all shadows were suppressed to the smallest extent.
Because the intensity of the light was too high, Xia Fan even felt a burning sting on his skin. This was the thermal effect caused by light radiation. If it were stronger, it could even directly ignite flammable items such as sails and clothes. things.
Tural screamed.
There was no trace of his swift movements, his body seemed to be fixed in place by nails, and green smoke even appeared on his skin, not to mention the instantaneous movement before.
Even Xia Fan couldn't help but be stunned. He didn't expect that the effect of this move would be so good, and the scene in front of him gave him a vague feeling of déjà vu.
Naturally, Ning Wanjun would not miss this opportunity.
She raised her hand and threw the spear with all her strength.
The flaming gun barrel crashed into the Lord's body, took him flying out, and nailed him heavily to the main mast.
At this time, the light began to fade, and the opponent's injuries no longer expanded. He gritted his teeth and grabbed the barrel of the gun, trying to pull it out. Qianyan caused ice crystals to form quickly, forming a tight ice barrier around the enemy, sealing the Lord inside.
At this point, Xia Fan knew what to do without the need for them to remind him.
Since the enemy has strong self-healing ability, just increase the power of the spell to the point where the opponent cannot recover!
Using the copper wire pendant as a guide and the magic talisman, he pointed at the gun barrel exposed outside the ice barrier and conceived the shape of the shock technique—
The ultimate version of streamer that surpasses the large streamer!
A series of flat thunder sounded on the sailing battleship!
The sound of air bursting was endless, and a nearly incandescent light was seen twisting into the end of the gun barrel and drilling into the ice barrier along it. In just the blink of an eye, the gun barrel glowed red, then turned orange, and then bent and melted as the temperature further increased. High-heat steam was spewing out of the ice barrier, and flames could be seen shooting out of the gaps. Qian Yan could not stop the ice barrier from taking shape even if he tried his best.
When it completely vaporizes, Tural's body is exposed.
His body has become charred and stiff, and the blood has long evaporated from the mouth, nose and other cavities. His burly figure is now like a bamboo pole that has been dried.
The melted gun body flowed down from his chest, cooled back into a solid state, and stuck together with the carbonized bones, making it impossible to separate.
Probably unable to support the weight of the upper part, the Lord's body gradually disintegrated and collapsed like a sand tower, and the black residue that was peeled off was basically the same as soot, and turned into powder when the wind blew.
He certainly has strong recovery ability, but only if he is alive. The overloaded current not only destroyed his nerves and muscles instantly, but also ignited a raging fire inside his body. Once the local water evaporates, the tissue will enter irreversible carbonization. Obviously, there is no way for the Lord to reverse this process.
With the death of the commander-in-chief, the war was a foregone conclusion.
…
Silisti, inside the Cathedral of the Imperial Capital.
A tall woman with red hair frowned and let out a sigh.
"What happened?" The middle-aged man sitting under the statue of the Moon Goddess glanced at her and asked. His voice is calm and peaceful, as if it has magnetism, making the listener involuntarily pay attention.
"Your Majesty, Governor of the Western Sea Region, Tularnat is dead." The woman replied in a low voice.
"I have the impression that he is your descendant, right? Since it happened in the Western Sea, it must be related to the refugees from World Island."
"But the last thing I saw was not an elf, but a completely different race from us." The woman held her forehead with one hand. "The image was very blurry. It should have been that the magic was interfered with. But at that moment, I saw There is a mainland city opposite the imperial warship."
"I understand. Let the diplomats investigate this matter. Although this descendant is not of high rank, he is also a noble of Natantine. The murderer should be punished. But..." the man changed the subject, "I hope you will not do it because of It is clear from this matter that we have a more important purpose to do. The Holy Grail is about to come to the world again, and we must not let it fall into the hands of any country except us. Do you understand?"
"Yes." The woman bowed her head respectfully, "As you wish, Your Majesty."
