Chapter 64: The Silver Hand
Constant Arcane, [Alchemy Hand], is an arcane arte that has been improved from the [Mage's Hand], the most commonly used spell by mages, who study the direction of alchemy.
As the most commonly used spell by mages, the effect of the Mage's Hand is to telepathically move up to 5 pounds of non-magical ownerless items over long distances, which is extremely versatile and extremely convenient for many things.
However, the effect of the Mage's Hand is limited to picking, moving, and placing items, and the operation of items is extremely rough, and there is no way to manipulate items to make any subtle operations!
The arcanists, who often need to quickly perform multiple subtle operations at the same time when conducting alchemy experiments, naturally set their sights on the spell of the Mage's Hand, and while optimizing the original spell model of the Mage's Hand, they added a series of arcane runes for stability, perception and control, and finally succeeded in creating the constant arcane of the [Alchemy Hand]!
Compared to the Mage's Hand, the [Alchemy Hand] has greatly improved stability and can manipulate heavier objects, but also has the ability to perform precise operations, and can easily do many things that the original Mage's Hand could not do.
However, while the [Alchemy Hand] has a powerful research auxiliary role, it also has its limitations!
In order to use it, the Arcanists must engrave the arcane mark of the Alchemy Hand on their hands!
And each arcane trace is a collection of dozens or hundreds of arcane runes, and at the same time, each arcane rune is closely connected, and must be engraved at one time......
The first-level "Black Iron Hand" of [Alchemy Hand] only needs to be engraved with nine arcane marks, and the second-level "Bronze Hand" on it needs to be engraved with eighteen arcane marks, and the third-level "Silver Hand" that the muse wants to engrave is already the arcane mark that needs to be engraved with thirty-six arcane paths!
What's more, if you want to engrave the mark of arcane law, you need to master the knowledge of [Rune Construction], [Rune Engraving], [Advanced Scoring Technique], etc.!
Although the muse has mastered this knowledge, but now he is only worthy of the requirements of inscribed arcane marks, after all, inscribed arcane marks do not mean that they have mastered the required knowledge, in actual operation, the arcanist must change the form of the required arcane marks according to his actual situation, and turn the arcane marks into a variant form suitable for individuals.
But with Illya and Elijah in hand, the Muse doesn't need to calculate the right variation of the Arcane Mark for him, so his job is obviously much easier.
While Illya and Elia were calculating the Marks' variants, the Muse was preparing for the Marks of Arcane Marks, pulling out a piece of Spell Fuel, activating the small Spell Forge on the Spell Bench, and throwing a large chunk of silver into it.
And in the process of this large piece of silver gradually melting, with the control of the spiritual power of the muse, the molten silver liquid also formed a small whirlpool, which kept flowing in the constraints of the magic circle.
At the same time, the muse also continued to invest in various spell materials, and under the licking of the spell flame, a trace of black impurities was quickly released, and then it was incinerated by the high-temperature spell flame!
Eventually, the Muse was given a cloud of arcane metal that trembled like mercury and was still glowing with a little bit of light—alchemy! a medium-grade arcane metal with good stability and conductivity, an accidental product of the tangled alchemy experiments of the arcanists who studied the direction of alchemy.
The engraved [Alchemy Hand - Silver Hand] Arcane Mark requires adding a trace amount of Mithril to the silver liquid to enhance its stability and conductivity, but in the current situation, the Muse can only use alchemy as a substitute.
Using the [Alchemy Hand - Silver Hand] arcane mark engraved by alchemy can probably exert 70% of the original ability, although it is not up to the original level, but it is also much better than the mage's hand!
Ready to refine the silver, while maintaining the temperature of the spell flame and keeping the alchemy in liquid form, the muse picked up the row of carving knives on the spell workbench carving knife rack and weighed it in his hand.
But apparently the muse couldn't find a suitable tool for the arcane mark inscription, he shook his head slightly, the slight magic aura in his hand flashed, and he used the mage's hand, and with a slight tremor of his mind, a small cloud of liquid alchemy silver was separated from the spell furnace.
And this small mass of liquid alchemy silver stretched and changed rapidly under the power of the mage's hand, and when it cooled down and turned into a solid state, this small ball of alchemy had already turned into five needle-like instruments of different sizes, which were the inscription tools needed by the muse!
And not long after the muse had completed all these preparations, the voices of Illya and Elijah rang out in his head: "The [Alchemy Hand - Silver Hand] has calculated the required arcane scar variant......"
"A total of thirty-six arcane traces, two thousand five hundred and ninety-two arcane runes......"
"Spiritual guidance is in progress......"
And after a flash of dark golden light, the muse's hands suddenly lit up slightly, and these lights coiled on his skin one by one, forming strange patterns that covered the front of his arms, and the appearance was exactly the mark of the arcane law that needed to be inscribed!
And Illya and Elia stretched out two spiritual threads again, coiled and wrapped around the muse's eyes, and when he opened them again, the faint light pattern on his hand became a highlight on his retina!
The Muse only needs to follow the traces of these light patterns step by step to inscribe the marks of the arcane law!
But even with the strong support of Illya and Elia, the muse took a deep breath and gathered his spirit, holding the liquid alchemy aside, holding a needle-like instrument in his right hand, and gently bringing out a thin thread of alchemy from it, and using the arcane energy to wrap and guide the inscription of the arcane mark on his left hand.
Soon, with the slight movement of the muse, silver arcane runes connected from end to end were quickly engraved on his left hand, and a trace of arcane magic that meandered like a long silver snake coiled around the tip of his arm gradually appeared......
With the final stroke of the muse, the arcane mark suddenly flashed with a silver glow, and then faded away......
