Chapter 20: The Eye of Insight
"The color and touch are almost exactly the same as the originals, and the high-end goods like the incubator are really worth the money." Long Jie walked slowly in front of a row of display shelves, touching the stone tablets, turtle shells, clay tablets and other strange things, looking east and west.
"You know what? For as long as I can remember, Gandalf and I have been living in a very difficult situation, and he let it go after I could take orders for mechs independently, so I always thought that some stone tablets and knives in his garbage-like material room were all fakes. I remember the day I had learned the structure of these ancient scripts and passed Gandalf's test, he smashed all the steles and tablets, and said to me, 'These things are useless, it's yours in my head,' and I was stupid enough to knock two pieces for me. Looking back, on the second day of the airport, I heard that there were homeless people who found some broken stones while scavenging and made a fortune, and even went to buy a C-class mining star to become a small lord, and I even said there, 'Fools have foolish blessings'......."
As he spoke, Long Jie pulled his hair in annoyance, and continued to the housekeeper beside him: "I always thought that Xiaopang was a loser, but I didn't expect it to be really trivial compared to Gandalf. ”
"The old housekeeper Zhuge of the Flea Chamber of Commerce said that Kuijin, Mojing, and Mecha Metal are all strategic materials that are strongly controlled by various governments, and they are even so strict that every gram of change and retention must be registered in the register. And your master, I, am unfortunately the 'weakest in history', and it is an extravagant hope to go to the 'Nuclear Association' to worship the welfare of those who have a little bit of nuclear power......"
No matter what Long Jie said, the butler responded with a smile on his chin.
"It seems that we still have to find a way to be self-reliant." Long Jie couldn't help but be a little depressed when he saw that the housekeeper even nodding his head: "I really miss that monkey Taoist priest a little." ”
Before the words fell, Long Jie found that he had returned to the grass, and the Taoist priest was meditating there with the swishing waves of Ye Tao on the branch of the towering tree.
"Eh, I said, is it a safety hazard for you to get me in without saying hello?" Long Jie lay on the grass, his head resting on his hands, his feet crossed, and complained, "Didn't you say that I would initiate the link to Kukulkan?" What if I can't be distracted by what I'm doing and you force me here, how will it end? ”
The Taoist priest finished his work unhurriedly, got off the tree, paced around Long Jie three or two times, and said: "Whether you are a nuclear force or a chosen people, the difference in talent is estimated to be the ancients and the future." But your kid's luck is quite good, and cleaning up space junk can also be selected by the artifact Kukulkan, and when the brain domain is first awakened and born, he actually has the attribute of immunity to the whole system. ”
"That pupil magician used a 'two-way link' when he forcibly searched your brain domain in the process of using 'other heart communication', because that kind of communication is the most efficient, after all, you seemed to be a beginner at the time, and you were still a very good one. As everyone knows, completely opening up one's own mind is the most basic requirement for artifact sacrifice. So your luck is really good. On the other hand, this pupil sorcerer once found a broken artifact in the ruins of a prehistoric civilization, and after killing his companion, he hid it for a long time, resulting in his compatibility with the Kukulkan energy system is quite high; Coupled with the fact that he is a Rahu-level mage who specializes in pupil arts, and his brain domain perfection and energy are both excellent sacrifices, Kukulkan is quite satisfied with this, so that the quality of your first artifact skill, 'Eye of Insight', has reached the highest level. ”
"Master Rahu of the Hitomi Technique?! Taiyin Heavenly Order?! This kind of spiritual nuclear power is half a level higher than the comprehensive evaluation of the same level! Long Jie propped himself up and asked, "What kind of good thing is that 'Eye of Insight'?" ”
"Yes, he's only half a step away from being the highest-ranking Jidu mage who can make rules. It is in response to that sentence: 'full of losses, humble benefits'! The Taoist priest sat down cross-legged, glanced at Long Jie with a complicated expression, and continued: "Even if it is an artifact, it can't be suppressed by Master Jidu!" ”
"Okay, okay, I know it's all hard-won, why don't I wait and buy a lottery ticket?" Long Jie simply sat up and said to the Taoist priest again and again: "Is it good for your old man to return to the topic?" Let's talk about the artifact skill 'Eye of Insight'? ”
"That's a long story." The Taoist priest stroked his three long beards and said, "What is the so-called 'brain domain'? That is, in the overclocking state, the brain's 'magic pattern' is automatically stimulated to generate a new 'magic pattern' to adapt to the current situation. ”
"In fact, each species can be regarded as a unique creature magic pattern, in addition to this, there is also the Nine Yuan Demon Pattern composed of the Kuijin Demon Pattern and the Pure Nine Elements. Everything in the universe is composed of small magic patterns combined into big magic patterns, which are interlocking, progressive and ever-changing. This theory of demonic patterns was first used by the Protoss for enlightenment. For the human race in the early days of Chaos, the four-dimensional and three-dimensional theory of the magic pattern was too esoteric and abstract, and later there was a compromise method of using the 'flattening' of the magic pattern to open up the wisdom of the people. This is also the real origin of the term 'word making', which is commonly recognized by later generations. ”
In this way, the Protoss only needs to select the 'chosen people' from among the 'literate' to teach carefully, and then the chosen people will do the work for the edification of all nations. It's a pyramid-like hierarchical structure. ”
"Well, then again. No matter what the premise, each species is a unique existence in the universe from the moment of its birth, and it can also be said to be a unique magic pattern. New magic patterns such as the brain domain, which are born out of autonomous stress, have expanded their differentiation under different birth conditions. ”
"And the artifact is to find an individual suitable for its 'frequency' from the 'small magic pattern' of the brain domain under the 'big magic pattern' of the higher intelligent species. In layman's terms, each artifact is like a radio station, the brain domain is like a radio, and the characteristics of an individual's brain domain are like the frequency modulation bands that a radio can receive. If you can't tune in a specific band, you won't be able to receive the corresponding radio broadcast. Some radio stations like to play light music, some are heavy metal, some are interviews, some will play different genres at different times, and so on. ”
"Therefore, the 'Eye of Insight' can be understood as a unique set of 'radio programs', exclusive to the Kukulkan artifact." The Taoist priest paused for a moment, and then continued: "You can write down the radio program you are listening to that cannot be received on other radios, but you can even find a way to record it and 'play' it to others...... Of course, this so-called 'playback' is not easy to operate in practice, and the effect will definitely be greatly reduced...... Sometimes it can even be counterproductive. ”
"Well, I see, this is equivalent to a question about 'sound quality'......" Long Jie stretched out his hand and rubbed his chin, squinted, and asked, "But, in the end, what is the content of this 'Insight Eye' program that I am most concerned about??" ”
"In the simplest words: 'Eye of Insight' can 'see' the Magic Pattern!" The Taoist priest muttered dissatisfiedly, and directly made a long story short.
Long Jie, who was listening attentively, was stunned for a moment, blinking his eyes there, trying to digest this overly concise sentence.
The Taoist priest glanced at it, his chin was slightly raised, and he didn't make a sound, but the three long strands of beard were smoother.
After a long while, Long Jie asked tentatively: "When you say 'look', do you mean seeing the 'Yuan Ji' of the Nine Yuan?" ”
The Taoist priest's hand paused in the three long strands of his beard, and he let out a soft "uh-huh" from his nose.
"So, theoretically, I can learn and copy all kinds of magic patterns for everyone, all types?!" Long Jie put his hands together, made a gesture of embracing the world, and excitedly wanted to look up to the sky and let out a long roar.
"Well, you can't say that." The Taoist priest's hand stroked slowly on the three long whiskers, and continued: "The complexity and profundity of the demonic structure involves too much time and energy of the nuclear power. Whether it is perceiving and manipulating the Nine Elements, or observing and drawing magic patterns, the consumption of the spiritual power, induction power and nuclear power of the nuclear force is huge. Especially when directly calling the Yuan base composed of nine elements to cast the magic pattern, under the same conditions, the consumption is several times higher than through the Quikin magic pattern. ”
Seeing Long Jie listening attentively, the Taoist priest shook his head and said, "However, the highest-grade 'Eye of Insight' does not need to consume your nuclear power value, but it can carefully inspect the structure of the Nine Yuan Demonic Pattern in Yuan Ji. Especially when targeting creature patterns, you can extract the species' pattern system while in the Eye of Insight state. However, this does not include the brain nucleus...... The ability to perceive the nucleus of the brain is the realm of God. ”
Long Jie nodded when he heard this, but at this time, the Taoist priest made a big turn: "However, even if you see it, it doesn't mean that you can copy it." It's like if you see a wooden house, even if you have an optical microscope, you may not be able to make an identical one. Do you know how it was originally collected and how it became sawn timber? Do you know how ridges, rafters, beams, columns, beams, and lances are built and connected in a staggered and orderly manner? Do you know how to pick grease or paint from a tree? Do you know how to resist earthquakes, fires, corrosion and moisture, and insects and ants? ”
Taking a deep breath, the Taoist priest teased refreshedly: "Even if you are given a lightning rod, do you know where to insert the flash receiver into the wooden house?" Do you know how to lay out the net? ”
Long Jie, who was wilted and wilted by a series of sentences, suddenly became energetic and shouted: "Don't bully me for reading less!" You're talking about wooden houses, lightning rods are metal, okay?! ”
The Taoist priest was suddenly speechless, and his face was stunned.
