Chapter Ninety-Seven: A Good Knife (6)
In the magic supply shop two months ago.
Lei Yang, who had just figured out how to sense the direction of the flow of magic power, was a little excited, because he felt that he had finally taken the first step in carving a magic array.
He saw the flowing lines of magic on the Wind Philosopher's Stone, and saw the trajectory of those black lines that kept flowing.
He picked up a few more Philosopher's Stones of other attributes, and found that he could clearly see that there were similar black lines flowing on the Philosopher's Stones.
After sensing the magic...... What's next?
Lei Yang pondered for a moment, vaguely remembering the magic array carving process that the master had explained to him, so he put several magic stones on the table together, and carefully ground them into powder with a special iron pestle.
It seems like...... They are ground into powder, and then the powder is dipped in with a carving knife for engraving.
Although Lei Yang had already practiced magic array carving several times before, after all, it was all purely a mechanical practice to accumulate proficiency, and when he really needed Lei Yang to use his brain to think about what to do at this moment, he had no clue.
The carving of the magic array had only just reached the first step, and Lei Yang realized that something seemed wrong.
Because he found that the powder from the grinding of several magic stones was mixed in an instant, and the black lines that represented the flow of magic suddenly fluctuated extremely violently.
The lines that were originally flowing slowly like a stream suddenly began to tremble sharply, and the different lines affected each other, and countless lines were suddenly entangled together!
If the countless black lines that fell on Lei Yang's eyes before were clearly organized, then at this moment, these lines were like a mess, and the magic contained in the Philosopher's Stone was completely disordered in the air!
Lei Yang was taken aback, he didn't know how such a situation would happen.
He thought for a moment and realized that he had most likely made some mistake in the previous steps.
He looked at the tangled mess with a bitter face, and thought to himself that he couldn't solve such a problem with his own head alone-but Nan Shui in the magic supply store didn't know how to carve the magic array, so if he asked the master......
Thinking of this, Lei Yang himself shook his head and denied his thoughts.
At present, the process of carving the magic array has only been completed, and he has already made a mistake, judging from the stern attitude of the master when he taught himself before, if he really knew about it, he would probably immediately drive him out.
Lei Yang scratched his head in annoyance.
Whatever...... Try carving a magic circle first......
Since he couldn't think about this matter well, Lei Yang simply put aside the matter and decided to carve a magic array first no matter what.
So he took a carving knife and a metal plate for engraving, and applied the powder mixed with water to the carving knife.
When the liquid touched the carving knife, Lei Yang clearly saw that those chaotic lines immediately wrapped the carving knife again.
Lei Yang was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself how to guide the magic of such a disorder.
But then he thought that he wouldn't have a good way anyway, so he gritted his teeth and slashed directly at the metal plate according to the lines of the magic array he had been carving before.
Because he had carved it many times, Lei Yang remembered the shape of the combination of the magic array lines and the technique of the knife very clearly.
But this time, however, he did not slash as quickly as before, carefully carving the lines slowly on the metal plate with his carving knife.
His movements were a little clumsy and jerky, but his expression was unusually serious.
He stared intently at the carving knife in his hand and the metal plate from which he fell, for fear that he had made a wrong step.
But it's also a little strange to say, before the knife, Lei Yang was still thinking about how he was going to channel the chaotic magic on the carving knife......
But after the knife, he was pleasantly surprised to find that those magic powers actually consciously flowed with the trajectory of his carving knife, and the lines that were originally entangled followed the process of his carving......
Gradually, it came together!
Originally, they were just mixed together and seemed entangled, but at this moment, the countless lines are blending and penetrating each other, and then ......
Completely, truly synthesized into a single line!
This line is constantly flowing with the scratches carved by Lei Yang's carving knife, not so much that Lei Yang is guiding the progress of this magic power, but that this magic power is actively following the trajectory of Lei Yang's knife!
Although he didn't understand the principle, Lei Yang was still very happy after finding that the biggest problem had been solved naturally.
So the speed of his carving knife became faster and faster, and the action of swinging the knife gradually became smooth from the original sluggish and stiff, and carved a line mixed with a variety of colors on the metal plate, and the lines were combined with each other to form a strange pattern.
The circle carved by Lei Yang is a simple hardened circle that has the effect of making the surface of the object with this circle twice as hard as normal.
This circle is not complicated, so under Lei Yang's gradually increasing carving speed, the carving of this circle is actually nearing the end - only the last knife that Lei Yang finishes is missing.
But at this moment, the metal plate, which was originally not of any color, suddenly emitted a bright light!
This bright light mixed a variety of colors, several different colors fused together, and it was strange that multiple rays of light appeared in front of Lei Yang's eyes at the same time!
This bright light appeared too suddenly, and Lei Yang couldn't help but be stunned under the illumination of the bright light.
His right hand trembled, and the knife that was about to be drawn in the direction of his memory suddenly deviated from its proper trajectory at this moment.
After this knife, a brighter light suddenly erupted from the metal plate, and with the appearance of this bright light, it seemed that an extremely powerful energy began to condense in the metal plate. Lei Yang could feel the magic that had been fused together and introduced into the metal plate by himself, and at this moment, the magic power in the metal plate fluctuated violently again, and they continued to expand in the metal plate, and the small metal plate obviously could not accommodate the expansion of the magic power in this way, so when the magic power had expanded to the extreme......
With a loud bang, this powerful magic exploded, setting off a huge wave of qi in the air!
The explosion of magic power shattered the table top stacked with countless metal plates and magic stones, and countless fragments mixed with the explosion generated a wave of qi that went straight to Lei Yang's body.
Lei Yang, who was extremely close, was also caught in the explosion, and the clothes on his chest were torn apart by powerful magic, and sharp fragments flew into his blackened chest, stabbing his chest with blood in the blink of an eye!
The qi wave pushed Lei Yang back a few steps, a large mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth, and his face became extremely pale.
The loud noise from the explosion quickly alarmed the rest of the shop, and Nan Shui was the first to come to Lei Yang's room, and when she saw the tragic situation in the room, she opened her mouth extremely exaggeratedly, as if she couldn't imagine what was going on in this room.
The explosion also produced extremely thick smoke, so it took a while for Nanshui to find Lei Yang in the room. After seeing Lei Yang, who was extremely seriously injured, Nan Shui's face changed, and he hurriedly rushed forward to support Lei Yang. And the moment he rushed forward, a blue light appeared on the hands of the half-elf, obviously using the healing technique of the water system.
She stretched out her hands to Lei Yang's chest, moistening the wound on his chest with soft water magic, and her beautiful eyes were full of concern: "Brother Lei Yang...... What happened? How did you get hurt like this? ”
Lei Yang was about to open his mouth to explain when he heard this, but found that Master Priest had already walked in angrily.
"Look at what you've done!" The master frowned after seeing the messy room in front of him, and glared fiercely at Lei Yang on the side, Lei Yang was a little weak-hearted, and was frightened by the master's glance and took a step back.
The master opened his mouth to reprimand him, but he seemed to suddenly notice something, and his face suddenly became a little strange.
The master didn't bother with Lei Yang, he went straight to the place where the explosion occurred, and leaned down to examine it carefully.
Seeing that the master was so angry, Nan Shui didn't dare to speak casually, so he had to ask Lei Yang in a low voice, "Brother Lei Yang, what did you do?" ”
Lei Yang looked at Nan Shui with a puzzled face: "I seem to have failed to carve a magic array, and then the metal plate I used to carve the magic array exploded for some reason...... So it's what it is. ”
"Failed to carve a magic circle?" Nan Shui was very puzzled when she heard this, although she didn't understand the carving of the magic array, but some common sense things were also clear, "Isn't the failure of the magic array to be scrapped in general?" How could such a powerful explosion be triggered? Brother Lei Yang, did you do anything strange in the process of carving? ”
"Strange things...... I want to think about it......" Lei Yang frowned and thought for a while, but felt that he should not have done anything wrong, "No...... The metal plate was in good shape until the carving was completed, and although the magic fluctuations seemed to be a little wrong when I mixed several magic stones together, they all ...... as I carved them."
Before Lei Yang's words could be finished, she was interrupted by Nan Shui, whose face was full of shock, and her eyes were wide open, as if she had heard something extremely incredible:
"Brother Lei Yang, are you kidding!?"
Lei Yang was stunned, not understanding why the other party spoke like this.
Seeing Lei Yang's reaction, Nan Shui's volume increased suddenly, but then she realized that the master was still on the side, so she consciously lowered her voice again: "Brother Lei Yang, although I have not systematically studied the carving of the magic array, I also know it...... A magic array can only be carved with the magic power of one attribute! Never use a variety of magic stones with different attributes to carve the same circle! ”
"The magic power of different elements is mutually exclusive, and the mixing of multiple magic powers is very easy to produce explosions, even when we magicians use different magic powers, we magicians need to be reconciled in a specific way - we magicians can still rely on strong control to reconcile multiple magic powers, but the magic circle is a dead thing, and it cannot be modified after it is finalized, so avoid using multiple different magic powers when carving the magic circle. Brother Lei Yang, your practice of mixing the magic power of various elements into the magic array is simply wrong! ”
Lei Yang was taken aback, he didn't expect this matter to be so serious.
Realizing that he had made a low-level mistake, he looked nervously at the master who was checking on the side.
But the master paid no attention to him, and only looked down at the wreckage of the table, as if searching for something.
The Master's white robe was blackened by the smoke from the explosion, and his hands were covered with all kinds of dust and stains as he looked through the wreckage, but he didn't care, and continued to dig up the pile of debris with his hands.
The Master's expression was very strange at first, as if he had discovered something extremely strange.
But as he kept digging, the expression on his face kept changing.
From the initial oddity and confusion gradually to surprise, and then from surprise to excitement.
The expression on his face kept changing, and at the end, Lei Yang obviously saw a hint of fanaticism on his face!
Just ...... It's exactly the same look he usually sees in his sister's eyes!
It was at this moment that Lei Yang saw the master take out a charred metal plate from the pile of debris.
The metal plate was truly terrible, scorched black by the heat of the explosion, and carved only a botched array of failed magic on it...... It couldn't be worse from the point of view of appearance and actual use.
But the master's hands trembled when he saw the metal plate.
He carefully held the metal plate to his chest with both hands, and judging by his frenzied and excited expression, it seemed as if what he was holding in his hand was not a charred metal plate, but ......
A whole world.
