Chapter 336 [Chemical Reaction]
The Demon Devouring Stone was brought, and He Ping had only one thought when he saw this thing for the first time, isn't this TM just a piece of coal? It's no wonder that He Ping thinks so, the dark and shiny color, the shape similar to that of ordinary stones, no matter how you look at it, it looks like a piece of coal, or high-quality anthracite, but after getting it in his hand, He Ping understands that this is definitely not coal, the specific gravity is wrong, the specific gravity of coal is not high, and it is much lighter than a stone of the same volume in his hand, but this one is different.
The Eater Stone is very heavy, much heavier than ordinary stones, even heavier than many metals, although it is a little worse than heavy metal, this is just a fist-sized Eater Stone for adults, it is not light, it seems that this thing is indeed a bit of a doorway, not as simple as it seems on the surface, He Ping looked at the Eater Stone from the appearance, and tried to send a little magic power into the Eater Stone.
As a result, as imagined before, He Ping's magic disappeared like a mud cow entering the sea the moment he touched the Eater Stone, and disappeared completely, while the Eater Stone did not seem to have any abnormalities on the surface, no changes, and He Ping also found that the magic power really disappeared into the Eater Stone, not dissipated in the surrounding air, and did not even leave a trace, which made He Ping a little surprised.
He Ping took out a dagger, it is not a magic weapon in the Giant Beast Paradise, nor is it a magic weapon in the elf world, it is just an ordinary cold weapon that can be produced when the system is at the first level in the main world, of course, the dagger He Ping took out is not in terms of quality, it uses the latest technology in the main world, the sharpness of the dagger and the hardness of the material are top-notch, it can be said that it is a real hair-blowing hair and iron like mud.
The dagger and the devouring stone collided together, to He Ping's surprise, the hardness of the devouring stone is not high, not to mention compared with metal, even compared with ordinary stones, it is much worse, of course, compared to the anthracite that He Ping misunderstood before, it is a little higher, but He Ping also understood after thinking about it, the teeth of the pangolin beast and the devouring beast from the variant of the pangolin are not sharp, and the appearance of the see-through beast and the devouring beast is not very advantageous to the jaw, therefore, if the hardness is too high, This kind of thing is not going to be food for pangolins at all.
It is estimated that the same is true of other ores, before the metal components are refined, but the hardness of the ore state is not very high, if it is compared with many hard rocks, it is definitely inferior, it is precisely because of this that these ores will be selected by the pangolin as food, and only the ore of this hardness can be bitten by the pangolin, and among the ordinary stones, the pangolin can not eat too much.
The dagger gently scraped a few times on the devouring stone, some black powder adhered to the dagger, He Ping's fingers lightly wiped, and wiped the black powder on his fingers, and then he took his fingers closer and put them in front of his eyes to observe carefully, he found that just looking at these powders, it was a bit like graphite, and if you rub it with your fingers, you will feel a trace of slippery, and there is a lot of black left on both the dagger and He Ping's fingers.
The Eater Stone can absorb mana, but what about the powder of the Eater Stone? He Ping had a whim, and once again output a little magic power, just like before, that little bit of magic power was quickly absorbed by the powder of the Demon Devouring Stone, so what if he continued to input? He Ping continued to input mana, and this time he did not stop, but kept outputting mana to the powder of the Demon Eater Stone, and this state lasted for about five minutes, and when the situation changed.
The powder of the devouring stone can no longer absorb the magic power, and the magic power output by He Ping was not accepted by the powder of the devouring stone, but directly into the air, becoming the magic power of the ownerless, and then gradually diluted and dissipated, this phenomenon attracted He Ping's attention, in order to confirm his conjecture, He Ping output a little magic power into the powder of the devouring stone that had not absorbed the magic power, and as just now, the magic power was not accepted, but gradually dissipated in the air.
He Ping's previous guess was not wrong, the Demon Devouring Stone or the scale armor of the Demon Devouring Beast, the absorption of magic power is not unlimited, otherwise, if the magic power of the whole world is stuffed into it, then this world will not be finished, although this kind of thing is more peculiar, but there is an upper limit to the absorption of magic power, once the absorbed magic power reaches a saturated state, then it cannot continue to be absorbed, and the next magic power can only dissipate.
This point has actually been confirmed in the war of that year, the half-orcs have a low degree of civilization, and the cognitive bias of many phenomena is large, they think that the special ability of the devouring beast is magic immunity, so they use the soul of the devouring beast to make a horcrux, wanting to achieve the purpose of not being attacked by the magic of the elves, but in fact, the characteristics of the devouring beast are only magic absorption, and there is a certain upper limit, as long as it is exceeded, the effect of magic is still there.
Therefore, in the early days of the war, when only ordinary magicians were dispatched, this kind of Horcrux played a great role, and the magic power possessed by ordinary magicians was simply not enough to make these Horcruxes absorb magic to saturation, so the magic used by ordinary magicians naturally did not have much power, until the elite magicians came forward, so that the half-orcs were hurt a little, but it was only a little bit, until the elders came out, and the half-orcs were defeated with super high magic strength, from that time on, The nature of the Eater Stone and the Eater of Demonic Beasts to absorb mana has been studied to a certain extent.
He Ping looked at the powder of the devouring stone that had absorbed the magic power to reach a saturated state, it didn't look any different, and it was exactly the same in appearance compared to before, He Ping thought about it, and directly used the spiritual power to start infiltrating the powder of the devouring stone, at first he was still more careful, but soon he was relieved, although he could absorb the magic power, but the devouring stone had no effect on the spiritual power, so the spiritual power easily penetrated into the powder of the devouring stone.
And when the spiritual power penetrated into the powder of the devouring stone, He Ping didn't find anything, but for the sake of insurance, he scraped off some of the devouring stone powder that had not yet absorbed the magic power, and also penetrated the spiritual power into it, this time, he finally made a discovery, that is, compared with the powder that absorbed the magic power and the powder that did not absorb the magic power, the internal structure has changed, and it is no longer the same thing!
This discovery made He Ping have a little clue about the ability of the Eater Stone to absorb magic power, and then he used his spiritual power to infiltrate it and continue to monitor the powder of the Eater Stone, under his perception, the powder of the Eater Stone was originally a structure, but with the entry of magic power, a part of the Eater Stone powder began to change, and after all the Eater Stone powder changed, it was impossible to continue to transmit magic power.
It turned out to be so! The principle of devouring magic power of the Devouring Stone is similar to the common chemical reaction in the main world, there will be some kind of wonderful reaction between the Devouring Stone and the magic power, which even He Ping can't understand, so as to generate another substance, when the original substance of the Devouring Stone all reacts with the magic power and transforms into this new substance, it is natural that it will not be able to continue to absorb the magic power, because there is no substance that can react with the magic power!
Interesting! He Ping put down the Eater Stone, put away the dagger, closed his eyes and began to think, after the Pangolin devoured the Eater Stone, it mutated into a new creature like the Devouring Beast, and the Devouring Beast was not simply able to use the Devouring Stone in the scale armor to absorb the magic power, otherwise it would not be possible to explain the fact that the Beast Soul also had the nature of devouring magic, so it was certain that the Eater Stone was not only deposited in the scale armor of the Devouring Beast, but also transformed the Beast Soul of the Devouring Beast, so that the Beast Soul was mutated.
It is precisely because of this mutation that the beast soul also has the nature of devouring magic, and it is different from the principle of devouring magic power of the devouring stone, the devouring magic power of the devouring stone is due to the special substance that reacts with the magic power, but there are no such things in the beast soul, and in the case that it is not a special substance that reacts with the magic power, it can still absorb the magic power, and He Ping began to have a little interest in the production of Horcruxes of the half-orcs.
