Although Rogellian said that he could be allowed to move freely for the time being, Anturn thought for a while and felt that he could not leave his master alone. After all, there may be people with ulterior motives lurking in these carriages, and even if they set up a line of defense, they can't fully guarantee the safety of Rogelline.

In addition, although he was keen to let go of his magical perception and investigate the situation of the other passengers, if he accidentally exposed it, it would undoubtedly invite additional trouble and hostility, so the plan was only in the conceptual stage.

So after ruling out the above two options, in order to pass the boring time, Antoun, who withdrew his gaze from the window, closed his eyes and let his consciousness sink into his body.

He plans to use this opportunity to do some experiments.

As mentioned earlier, after fighting the leader of the "Forest of Thorns", Antoun has realized that if he wants to fight against enemies in this world that are higher than Sequence 6, he needs to level up to increase his stats or restore his original ability to use his skills. However, the mana (experience points) acquisition plan designed to achieve this point has not yet been able to find the right time and place for him to carry it out.

Therefore, he changed his thinking slightly: Is there a way for him to learn the magic of this parallel world and use it in battle? If he can also master the "inherent magic", won't he be able to cancel out the opponent's advantage as well?

Whoever understood Antoun's idea would have thought that his mind was broken. Because as long as you are a normal person, you know how thankless it is to achieve something in the new power system rather than to restore your old power system.

However, after reading the vast number of texts in the library of the Courtyard of Hypocrisy before setting out, and spending most of the night combing through the knowledge he had gained and confirming that this method was feasible, he further determined that he wanted to conduct the experiment as soon as possible.

In addition to having full confidence in his ability to learn, there are two crucial goals: first, if the experiment is successful, he will be able to gain additional means of improving his strength, and there will be no harm if he fails, and second, regardless of the outcome of the experiment, he will know the answer to something he wanted to verify before—that is, whether he came to the alternate world Earth as an ontology or as a "Heroic Spirit" doppelganger.

If he is a "Heroic Spirit" that has been fixed, then he will not be able to increase his strength in this way due to the constraints of the laws of the world, and he can only learn to detect magic as he did before because it is a few privileges obtained by the Servant after establishing contact with the Master. And if he had been in the Essence, things would have been completely different.

Recalling that he had tried to draw magic directly from the leylines to determine his true state, Antoun felt that he was too reckless at the time. However, at that time, there was relatively little information known, and there was really no way to do it. I can only say that it is really good to avoid the choice of taking a wrong step and disappearing now.

It's a waste of time to think about it any longer. Antoun retracted his thoughts and began to carefully recall the key descriptions in the magic books about how to obtain this power beyond common sense.

- If the magic power that is abundant in nature is called the big source, the magic generated in the human body is relatively called the small source. Direct control of the Great Source is God's authority, and we ordinary people can't do it. We can only inject the large source that is temporarily absorbed into the body or the small source that we have generated and accumulated in our own body into the substrate (medium), and use the nature of the substrate (medium) itself to make the corresponding "mystery".

- In order to perceive the Great Source, we must first perceive the Small Source, and in order to perceive the Small Source, we must first "shape" a device in the body that can produce it, and this device we can call it the "Magic Furnace". Generally speaking, a magician's magic furnace is the heart.

The magic texts introduce in detail how to better "shape" the so-called "magic furnace", and when Antuan read it all before, he felt that it was in a sense similar to the Taoist Neidan practice in his hometown. This led him to speculate that perhaps the things circulating in the "mysterious" world also had references to each other.

Anyway, after all, he had studied magic in another world (although the principle was different from the magic here), and he was able to do it very easily in the first step.

If you didn't go to another world first, but came directly to the parallel earth, would you be able to do it with your original ordinary physique?

After thinking a little more about something, Antoun refocused on the next process.

- In order to allow the generated small sources to flow in the body, in order to absorb and transform the large sources, we also need to "make" channels in the body that can allow them to pass smoothly, and these channels are called "magic circuits". There is a limit to the human body, and the number of "magic circuits" that each person can use is basically fixed at the time of birth. The process of "making" is really just to open up the otherwise closed passage as much as possible.

As for the information related to the magic circuit, Antoun had already guessed when he spoke to Jonah last night. Now that I've read the classics, I've recalled a little bit of what I've seen in a series of works on Earth, and he only failed twice before he succeeded in "making" the first circuit.

Ignoring the severe pain caused by the birth of an "anomalous being" inside his body, Antoun continued to "make". After obviously feeling the difficulty, he roughly estimated that there were no more and no less magic circuits that he had "made" in his body, and there were exactly ten.

Whether the number of circuits is too large or small, whether the quality is good or bad, Antoun does not care too much. In any case, the experiment has been more than half successful so far. It wasn't far from the time when Rogelline said she was going to wake her up, and in order to finish the experiment before she woke up, Antoun reached into his coat pocket.

Inside was the magic medium he had asked Jonah privately before he left this morning.

Antoun could vividly recall the momentary surprise and thoughtfulness on his face when he made this request to Jonah. In order not to reveal more information to the other party, he excused himself by saying that he was just curious, so the number of requests was not much.

Of course, Antoun doesn't think he's going to fail.

"Wake up, light the fire. ”

As Antoun performed the act of pinching the magic medium with his thumb and forefinger and pronouncing the key words, a faint flame ignited with his fingertips as the center. Although in terms of results, this magic trick may not be as convenient as a lighter, but it represents a completely different meaning.

I see, and sure enough, I'm the "ontology" here.

At this point, Antoun finally came to a conclusion and untied the knot. However, since he basically acted and thought on the premise that he was the ontological descend before, there would be no change in the general direction of what he was going to do next.

One of the purposes of the experiment had been achieved, and a happy Antoun extinguished the flame at his fingertips and looked at his system interface. In the talent column, which originally only had three items, a new entry has been added at this time.

Demon Path Explorer LV.1 (The Pursuit of Mysteries, Heart to Truth - Small Source Upper Limit +1000, Small Source Recovers 1% of the Upper Limit Per Second, Large Source Conversion Efficiency 10% When Performing Magic, it can be upgraded.) ）

Needless to say, the effect of increasing the maximum amount of mana and regenerating mana per second is very beneficial for yourself with a mana stat of 3908/3908 (+117/s). But what is the conversion efficiency of the Great Source? Could it be that as long as you want to use magic in the future, you can absorb magic from your surroundings without limit?

No matter how you think about it, Antoun doesn't think the effect of this talent is so exaggerated. After all, if he could do that, the magicians in this world would already be invincible, but this is not the case. Of course, for the reason behind this, in connection with what Jonah said to him before, Antun has some speculation, and the rest can only be verified when it is necessary to fight.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Antoun was about to turn his head to wake up Rogellinate when he saw that his master had straightened up from the bed in a daze.

"Hmm...... Antoun: Didn't you go out?"

Nor did she seem to shy away from Antoun's presence, and Rogelline sat down at the dresser in an orderly manner and began to arrange her hair and makeup. Antun was inexplicably amused by her blank appearance, but he didn't complain much after all, just nodded and responded in response to the order she gave him before going to bed.

"Miss, you are the master, I am your servant, isn't it natural to give priority to protecting your safety?"

Hearing his words, Luo Jielindi was stunned for a moment, and then showed a somewhat shy look on her face as if she had just woken up from a big dream.

"Thanks, but for now, can you go outside and wait for me for a while. ”

Seeing that his master had indeed returned to his normal mind, Antoon said, "Of course it's fine," and then turned to the passage of the carriage and closed the door.

"Huh?"

For just a moment, Antoun felt as if someone was staring at him. But when he subconsciously moved his gaze quickly to search around, he didn't see any suspicious figures. The feeling of being noticed disappeared at the same time.

He didn't think he had a delusion, but he wasn't sure that the other party was the one who knew the information about the "Heroic Spirit's Summoning" and attacked them. It's possible that the other party just wants to spy on all the passengers on the train like he did before.

[Miss, it seems that someone is watching us. 】

Antoun couldn't make a final decision, so he had to pass on the message to Rogellind through the "Psychic Link".

[Uhh

[It's a pity that the other party probably felt that he had been exposed and ran away soon.] 】

I don't know if I was thinking about anything, but Rogeranti's voice paused before coming directly with the sound of the door opening.

"Antun, traces of magic lead to the carriage on the left. ”

Antoon looked sideways, and Rogellinte, who emerged from the room, looked ready for battle.

"Do you want to chase it down?"

"To be conservative, when—"

Before she could finish speaking, Antoun had a premonition of impending danger in his mind, and he held his lord in one hand and the doorframe with the other. In the next moment, the carriage shook violently, and then the inertia caused by the train's emergency braking almost threw the two off the ground. Fortunately, Antoun prepared in advance, so that such a tragedy would not really happen.

When the speed of the train began to slow down, Rogelline, who was in his arms, asked softly in a frightened voice.

"Antun, what's going on?"

And this is Antun's biggest question at this time, so he can't give an answer. It was only when he looked up at the outside of the carriage that he noticed that the snow that had stopped for a while had begun to fly again with a momentum that seemed to bury everything.
