Chapter Ninety-Seven: Missile Spell Model
In the laboratory, Arthur is preparing a magic model of a magic missile, a silent laboratory, where only the monotonous and mechanical sound of a magic clock is available.
Magic missile, countless mages have learned this spell, as the most commonly used by low-level mages, the most crude and simple but also the most powerful first-level magic, the spell model of this spell has been detailed and decomposed by countless mages for thousands of years, the internal structure of the spell model has undergone countless evolutions, and it has already reached the most perfect form.
Even if you simulate it in the sea of consciousness, you can feel its perfect form.
If Arthur was asked to describe the structure of the magic model of the magic missile at this time, he could easily recall an imaginary atomic model he had seen in his previous life.
A circle of magical elements that are moving almost all the time are moving around an imaginary atomic nucleus at high speed, as if, yes, it is moving at high speed, and Arthur also really discovered that the magic elements that he originally thought were bound in the spell model were all moving at high speed under the microscopic level.
It is only when you look at them from a macroscopic perspective that you feel that they are somewhat static, which is actually the trajectory formed by them in a state of high-speed motion.
Countless magical elements are moving at a high speed that is imperceptible to the naked eye.
Of course, whether the concept of probability cloud is suitable to describe the magic element is not to be said for the time being.
But it did not prevent him from borrowing this concept to understand this phenomenon of movement of the elements of magic.
The place where these probability clouds appear most intensively is the key point where the magic of the spell model is most concentrated, which is the runes, and there is a special alchemical term here, called the magic node, which is used to help the spellcasters to define the spell model, as well as to control and constrain these elements in the "quantum" state.
And, it should also be noted that the nucleus of this imaginary model of the atom does not actually exist. If the real nucleus of the entire spell model is, according to Arthur's understanding, this so-called center is actually the mind of the spellcaster.
The caster is not actually able to intervene with the magical elements in the "quantum" state, but through the combined action of runes, mana nodes, and psychic power, they are guided and controlled to converge into a torrent of elements, which manifests itself as magical power.
Under the subtle vision infused with all his spiritual power at the moment, it seemed that he could see that the violent magical elements in the microcosm attracted each other, converging into a huge number of electronic clouds, flickering in and out of this void at lightning speed, like a legendary quantum storm, deducing a dazzling and wonderful landscape under the microscopic vision.
On a macro level, the magic power gathered by the spell model in this state is full of instability, as if it is possible to find a certain target anytime and anywhere to vent.
This is known as the most powerful of the first-level magic.
If you look at it from Arthur's point of view now, you can understand why this spell model is called the most difficult spell model to control among the many first-level spells.
Because this spell model, not only is the scale and complexity of the model construction far beyond the zero-level spells he has learned before, but more importantly, once it rises to the level of a first-level spell, the control required for the control of this spell model will immediately rise to a staggering complexity, and it will inevitably require stronger control.
Without a higher level of mental power and more sophisticated computing power, it is impossible to accurately draw a spell model of this level.
And this is just a very ordinary first-level spell, think about it, those high-level spells that are more spatial complex, and require higher mental power and computing power. At that time, when mages cast spells, it was likely that they needed to calculate tens of millions of runes in an instant, triggering the combined action of astronomical magic nodes, and never formed a torrent of magic like a cosmic tide, releasing earth-shattering spell effects.
That kind of magic is really called magic.
It can reroute mountains and rivers and make the sun and moon dull.
The kind of realm that can change the world between raising hands and feet. Those legendary casters are the ones who are truly fascinating!
Then he came back to his senses, or returned to the work in his own hands, Arthur condensed his spiritual power, and the hand of the mage under the control of his mental power unfolded, controlling a delicate carving knife like the tip of a needle, a magic model of a magic missile, and gradually appeared under his hand.
He added all his comprehension of this spell model just now, the kind of cognition from the microscopic perspective, the kind of understanding of the essence of the rune after reaching his level.
Those delicate runes, Kama Taj's rune of Rune, the realization contained in them seemed to flow out of his hands like flowing water, flowing into the models under his hands, which was also his own comprehension that he had been pursuing.
While it may be just a small tweak to the many nodes of a spell model, a spell model, even a small change, can have a very different effect.
It's magic, after all!
The spell model is like a magnificent high-rise building from a microscopic perspective, which is being born in his hands little by little.
With each passing minute, a key node of the spell model appeared on the oak in his hand, which meant that his magnificent edifice had completed another layer, and one rune after another had been added to it, and finally, a small and simple oak staff the thickness of a thumb and only half an arm's length had taken shape in his hand.
Arthur took it in his hand with his fingers, allowing it to spin and dance happily between the fingers of his right hand, feeling the power of the tiny staff.
At this point, the staff can be called the Missile Staff. Because only a single spell model was burned, its only function was to release the magic missile, and all that was left for Arthur to do was to install a magic crystal at the top of it, that is, the source of the circle of convergence, to become a source of magic power.
In this way, a staff capable of unleashing first-level magic is basically completed.
This small staff, although it seems to be petite, should actually be far more powerful than the thick apprentice staff he once was.
However, in fact, it is impossible to make a truly practical staff on the market, because then it also depends on the practicality, durability and appearance of the staff itself.
Most finished staffs can't just draw a spell model.
Next, Arthur installed a magic crystal on it, and tried to release one at the obsidian target more than ten meters away in the laboratory, and with the activation of spiritual power, he saw a dazzling magic missile flashing, and in the blink of an eye, it hit the obsidian target.
The spell succeeded, proving that there was no problem with the circle.
The Obsidian target shows an attack scale of 11 degrees.
This unit is a unit used by the caster world to measure the strength of a spell's attack, and according to the instructions, under normal circumstances, the attack power of the magic missile spell should be 10. And the staff made by Arthur emits a spell attack strength of 11.
There are no significant changes in the concentration of environmental elements, the material and magic crystal quality of the staff are very ordinary, and there are no other factors that may affect the change in the strength of the spell's attack, but it can hit attack power beyond the standard strength, why is that? This can only show that the quality of the circle that Arthur has just drawn is very good, even to the point of excellence.
Only in this case is it possible for the power of a spell that has already been issued to exceed its standard strength, and this phenomenon can only occur under the alchemist who is too old to know the power of magic beyond that of the vast majority of ordinary spellcasters.
Arthur's expression was indifferent, and his heart was happy, he knew that the hard work he had spent in Kama Taj had not been wasted, and these were the gains he had obtained.
