Book 2: Opening Chapter 55 Summoning
The recording function is not surprising compared to rune captivity, but it is an important accessibility that all professionals want.
The words on the Book of Spirits are written directly with spiritual power, so when the elemental demon cultivator uses magic energy, as long as he communicates these pre-written matrices or magic texts, he can do the equivalent of reciting a spell in an instant to fight.
Of course, there are pros and cons, not only will the elemental counter-torrent that they need to endure at that moment be much stronger, greatly increasing the burden on them when fighting, but also the study of the magic script will be quite refined.
In addition to the combat auxiliary function, the record is also incomparably useful in other aspects, and as mentioned before, the Book of Spirits is the spiritual equivalent of a secondary brain that stores information. Coupled with the fast record reading function, it is quite like an enhanced version of the notebook and learning machine out of thin air, or with the external 'search' function - thinking reading is much faster than eye reading.
The owners of the Book of Spirits often use it to record some of their usual experiences, or engrave the occasional magic scripts, matrices, knowledge and other things for their own reference and study at any time in the future. The most convenient thing is that because these words are written directly by mental power, in addition to the things that are forcibly engraved, even if you don't know the white eyes of the characters, you can even directly obtain the knowledge recorded on them.
For example, Luo Xia, who knew little about the words of this world at the moment, instantly understood what the content recorded above was expressing. After all, he can now understand the words and language of this world, all thanks to Xiaoxi (Paul)'s help in sorting out the feedback after sorting out the residual memories, which is basically cramming.
But in the same way, spiritual reading is a very limited behavior, that is, it needs to be truly understood, in layman's terms, it is understood when you understand, and if you don't understand, you can't read the content at all, which requires a lot of basic common sense that is not recorded on it to support, that is, you need to have enough knowledge.
After all, spiritual reading only helps reading, not improves experience and wisdom.
Perhaps, for Luo Xia, who is from the era of information explosion, this is undoubtedly a huge blessing, compared to the people of this world, understanding and acceptance are his strengths.
At the same time, it also shocked Luo Xia who came to the earth, people in this world may not have experienced it because they are accustomed to the function of the Book of Spirits, but for Luo Xia, like the Book of Spirits, the 'black technology' that can transmit a lot of knowledge almost in an instant is so rebellious.
Although it is up to the individual to truly understand and absorb knowledge, he was still amazed by this way of transmitting memories and knowledge. If he had such a thing when he was on Earth... He is confident that he can be a genius who can pass without cheating.
"Summoning? Huang Yan really knows how to summon, no wonder he can summon that terrifying wolf beast. It's incredible, how did he break the spatial barrier to summon? Not... This summoning is too nonsense, isn't it, summoning not only requires sacrifices, but also unknown summons... In other words, the strength of the summon fluctuates greatly..."
Luo Xia was studying the record of summoning knowledge left by Huang Yan, and at the same time frowning and thinking about the gains and losses.
He didn't understand summoning very much.
A weak existence can directly break the spatial distance and barriers to cross over creatures by summoning, which sounds too, completely inconsistent with the law of conservation of energy, even in the world of magic energy, it is a bit unacceptable to him.
Unfortunately, a lot of the above content is incomplete, so he can only use it as an instruction manual to see the general situation for the time being.
The strength of the summon is actually very important, not the stronger the summon, the better, the vast majority of summons if the strength exceeds the summoner too much, it will produce a backlash or even a rebellion against the main phenomenon, especially the notorious demon summoning technique, most of the warlocks finally become the summon's snack before leaving.
Of course, there are also some lucky guys who accidentally summon a powerful but gentle summon, and after successfully establishing a long-term spiritual connection with it, they suddenly fork up. But it's just a very low probability.
In other words, summoning is an industry with a gambling nature, and gambling money is your own life.
The four conditions of the summoner, the mental power is strong, the lower the elemental sensing ability, the better, proficient in magic scripts and sequences, and finally the thick-skinned.
Many people wonder why thick-skinned is an important condition, and that's because he doesn't understand the summoner's tragedy. For summoners who have been dealing with various creatures in the heteroplane, they are described as a group of public relations guys in terms of their profession on Earth, but the difference is that this public relations is engaged in human trafficking.
Therefore, in order to smoothly abduct and sell summons that respond to their calls, summoners often coerce and lure when facing weak creatures. And when facing powerful and abnormal guys, they are cautious, and even wag their tails and beg for mercy.
It can be said that this is a dangerous and snobbish profession, and of course, there will always be some exceptions.
To be honest, after understanding the characteristics of summoners, Luo Xia suddenly lost a lot of enthusiasm for this profession, if it wasn't for the lack of choice, he would have given up a long time ago. But the question is, does he still have a choice at this time?
"Elemental sensing? Cut, I haven't even sensed the difference between this world and the original world in the past few days, and I guess this induction is enough to choke, but what is this magic text and sequence? Ah, no matter, give it a try, it just so happens that the summoning technique used for this apprentice-level practice doesn't seem to require sacrifices, and this pattern is also very simple. ”
"Master, Paul is looking for you." Just when Luo Xia was chattering, preparing for the first experience of otherworldly summoning with a curious mentality, Paul, who looked like an octopus, was particularly cold and didn't like to take care of him, actually appeared.
Luo Xia was simply flattered.
He had already felt it, and it seemed that he had made a bad impression when he met for the first time, and this octopus, which was said to be a collection of consciousness of some plane group, was very unkind to see him.
It seems that in the house world, he, a cheap owner, is not something that can be messed around at will. When the time comes, if Paul plays some tricks on the grant of plane permissions, he probably doesn't know.
He consciously entered the sixth dimension of space-the real corridor, and wanted to pat Paul's shiny blue head with a little flattery, and then saw the other party's half-closed dead fish eyes staring at him, so he could only shrink back in embarrassment: "Brother Paul, dare to ask what's the matter?" ”
Under the blue eyelids, the half-exposed silver-gray pupils did not fluctuate: "Logic. ”
"Brother Logic?"
"Logic."
"Okay, logic." The silly blue octopus has no sense of humor, and its air pressure is so low that it feels like it's about to die at any moment.
Luo Xia used to talk to people with this virtue, but he pretended to be sullen, but logic may really be this virtue. No matter what it is, the hippie smile in front of this kind of person will only make him more disgusted, Luo Xia can only raise his hand in surrender, and become serious: "So, what do you want me to do?" ”
Logic nodded his head with satisfaction, and said seriously: "Summoning the matrix." Summoning creatures from another dimension involves the use of space in this world. It is very valuable for collection and research, and if it can be cracked, it can connect the otaku world to the real world. ”
In fact, Luo Xia had expected it, Xiaoxi had communicated with him about this issue before, but it still made him a little excited: "What should I do?" ”
"The world has its rules, this world belongs to the transcendent migration system on the magic energy side, and the magic text should be the way this world analyzes the world. If you analyze the magic text, you can harness the power of this world, which naturally includes space. ”
But Luo Xia was obviously a little incomprehensible, how could a single word harness extraordinary power, and shouldn't space be difficult to break: "What is a magic text?" Why is it so easy to break up space? ”
"It's not about breaking the space, it's about using it more efficiently."
Logic glanced at Luo Xia and continued to say indifferently: "This needs to be further analyzed and demonstrated. But with limited understanding, you can think of it as a resonant magnetic field or force field that requires mental power to stimulate and act as a power source to achieve the purpose of harnessing magical energy. Space is the most basic element of existence in the world, and the rules of space are different for different levels of life. ”
Luo Xia felt discriminated again: "What do you mean, ask for an explanation." ”
"For a dimensional creature like you, space is a piece of paper, and from one end of the paper to the other, you can only walk slowly. Then for the existence of a higher dimensional level, such as the most representative energy-capable quantum creatures, space is a mass of paper twisted together that changes at any time, and it may only take one step to get from one end of the paper to the other, or even turn around. ”
