Chapter 246: Amazing Guess
The first psychic magic Donner chose for Wesley was the easiest and most practical of the three models he knew—the Banshee's Howl. The impact of mental power caused by the latter is the most deceptive, and it is also the least likely to be suspected afterwards.
Just like Donner did when he first stunned the Scaly Serpent in front of Ale, and when he went to "borrow money" that night to deal with Leona, he didn't know it.
In contrast, the most powerful soul contract magic, the learning process is too time-consuming—it took nearly half a year for Donner to devote himself to this model, and now that Wesley's main focus is on the magic array, it is predictable that it will take even longer.
In fact, after listening to Donner's introduction to the three psychic magics, Wesley was most interested in illusions.
Looking at this guy's obscene expression, Donner secretly decided to postpone his plan to teach him illusion indefinitely.
After about half an hour, Wesley reconfirmed the models of the three Banshee Howls (distinguished by cast range) and decided to start with the regular tetrahedron, which is the Banshee's Vision for a single target.
Then he asked another question:
"You said that there are some ideas to experiment with about the magic array, does that mean the division of labor and cooperation?"
"It's not. Donner shook his head in reply.
"Don't sell it, give me a hint first, let me be a little prepared. ”
Donner groaned a little and asked, "Have you seen the magic circle drawn by your uncle, Professor Victor?"
"I've seen it...... I know what you're going to say, the magic circle in Middle-earth is very different from here, and in comparison, the magic circle here is more precise and ......" Wesley searched for the right words: "...... Also more rational. ”
"Yes, Professor Victor's magic circle is like a handicraft. Donner said with a smile.
"But what does that have to do with your plans?" Wesley wondered.
"When I was in Middle-earth, I bought the fifth-level magic array that circulated in the past in the Magic Continent through the Medici family, except that the element is finer and the area is larger, the style is no different from the common magic array in Middle-earth. ”
"How is that possible?" Wesley exclaimed, "Is it ......?"
"Yes, the reason is very simple, this is a special version made by the Magic Continent and sold to Middle-earth. Did you know that the Magic Circle Association stipulates that members' works can only be sold to merchants certified by the association, and if they are sold to individuals, they also need to register with the association - their regulations are so strict, obviously to prevent technology from flowing into Middle-earth? ”
"Hmm......" Wesley nodded slowly, "In this way, those magic circles that have been passed down to Middle-earth are likely to come from magic array workshops that use a lot of slave labor in Middle-earth." But I still don't understand, what does this have to do with your plans?"
"It's okay," Donner's face grimaced, "Have you ever thought about this possibility—just like the Magic Continent is controlling Middle-earth, who else is controlling the Magic Continent?"
Wesley looked at Donner incredulously, "How could you have such an idea?"
"Is that possible?" Downer asked.
Wesley lowered his head and was silent for a moment, then suddenly raised his head: "Have you noticed something wrong?" I know that you won't guess without evidence. ”
"Hmm," Donner nodded slightly, "A lot of things I saw in the Magic Continent were a little wrong, and it didn't seem to be as simple as a coincidence. ”
"What are you?" asked Wesley, eagerly.
"Wesley, a poor man like me from a small border island eventually became a nobleman, is it possible for such a thing to happen in the Magic Continent?"
“...... No way. Wesley replied after a moment's thought.
"Yes," Donner nodded, "a Bothian, always a Portan." ”
"You seem to be getting farther and farther away. Wesley grumbled.
"No, Wesley, don't you think? A civilization that cannot flow between classes is a dead civilization!" Donner's tone was a little excited: "No matter how hard the Poterns work, they are still Botyans, and no matter how degenerate the Hellians are, they are also Helians." ”
"You mean......" Wesley panicked, "This is another civilization's means of controlling the Magic Continent?"
"I can only say that if this is the case, then this method is more subtle and clever than the control of Middle-earth by the Magic Continent. ”
"You just said that there are a lot of things that are not right......"
"Hmm...... You said that the magic array in the Magic Continent looks more rational than Middle-earth...... Then I ask you, where is the rationality?" asked Donner.
"Isn't it irrational to be more precise in drawing techniques?" asked Wesley rhetorically.
"Then why are the other four systems of magic energy being released? can't they be used? Why can't they be used? Can you tell me which one of those magic curves does what it does? Why can the symbol that releases magic energy cast magic energy?" Donner kept asking.
"Didn't the book say that if the magic guide line is more than one finger long, the magic energy will begin to escape, and in a limited area, there is no space to draw a multi-system magic strategy......"
"Then let me ask you, why don't you stack multiple animal skins, each drawing a series of magic guides, a magic strategy, the area is always enough, right? There is always a way to find light animal skins, and five stacked ones are no more than the thickness of one magic crystal, right?" Donner's inspiration came from multi-layer circuit boards.
"I think it's a real way to try. Wesley exclaimed.
"I'm not done yet...... You've read so many books on magic arrays, have you ever mentioned who discovered these magic arrays in the first place, and how did you develop so many types?"
"What you said is the secret of the Magic Array Association...... It should only be known to the masters in the guild. Wesley's answer was not very confident.
"That's why I'm going to be promoted to a member of the Association above Level 4 as soon as possible," Donner said with a wry smile, "I'll know when the time comes, if I'm thinking too much." ”
"What if, I mean what if...... If the Magic Array Guild really doesn't have this answer, then what should we do?" Wesley asked in a deep voice.
"That's my plan, and if that's the case, we'll figure out how to crack it ourselves. Donner looked up at Wesley.
"Just like when you were in Middle-earth, you cracked the secrets of the primitives?" Wesley mused.
"It shouldn't be that simple, but you have to give it a try......"
"Hmm......" Wesley thought for a moment, "you know what? I kind of hope you're right right now. ”
"I know," said Donner with a smile, "in that case, Middle-earth still has a chance." ”
"Forget it, such a headache is left to you to think about. Wesley finally stood up, "I'll go to sleep first." ”
Donner looked at Wesley's back and shook his head helplessly.
He had an even bolder conjecture that he didn't tell Wesley.
