Chapter 1002: Deception, Punishment, Discovery of Characteristics
Seeing that he was about to find the projection plane, Xia Duo was willing to interrupt at this moment, but Nia's words also attracted his attention, and he couldn't help asking:
"What the hell is going on over there in Severington? How did even Ms. Greta try it so long? ”
"She didn't say it, but the teacher is not here, and there should be a lot of things that Miss Greta needs to deal with in the Gillestall Tower, as you said, we just wait for the results!"
After saying that, Niya confided in another situation, "Due to the frequent use of the Dimensional Exploration Array these days, the energy reserves of the Tower of Time are already insufficient. ”
"Running out of energy?" Xia Duo thought carefully about the number of times he had used it these days, and because he didn't have much experience in the early stage, as long as there was any movement in the astral plane, he had to quit and start over.
But then, he has been able to exist steadily in the astral boundary for a long time, is it really too many times?
Xia Duo couldn't help but be a little suspicious in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, but secretly asked Taling, and Taling's answer was-
Not enough energy!
It's been a long time since the Elemental Passage at the edge of the Misty Ruins was built, and Shado hasn't heard of the term "energy shortage" for a long time.
But for a moment, he couldn't determine how often Devane used the Plane Exploration Array in the past, but his rational instinct told him that there was a problem here.
So he tentatively stared into Nia's eyes tentatively and said in a skeptical tone, "Really? ”
"It's true!" Nia nodded vigorously, as if to emphasize the authenticity of the matter.
But from the tips of Nia's ears, which were gradually dyed red, Xia Duo found the clue, so he quipped: "I don't believe it, unless your ears are not red!" ”
As soon as she finished speaking, the tips of Nia's ears became even redder, her eyes became less steadfast and became erratic, and at the same time, the flush of the tips of her ears gradually invaded her upper cheeks.
Seeing Niya's delicate appearance, even if they were both husbands and wives, Xia Duo's heart was still beating violently, and he approached the protective force field that restrained Niya's robe from moving, and whispered in her ear:
"You lied to me, I'm going to punish you well at night!"
This was said quite ambiguously, and Nia immediately understood, and her face suddenly became even more ruddy, and she lowered her head, almost daring to look directly at Xia Duo.
"Okay, I understand!" Shado hugged Nia and stroked her on the back.
After this episode, Xia Duo, who was interrupted from the rhythm, has realized what his problem is.
The state of astral perception requires both non-master's concentration and relaxation and diffusion perception when such concentration is needed, and at the same time, the passage of time in the astral realm is also very difficult to grasp.
Although his exploration had only passed for more than ten days in the eyes of the main plane, in the astral plane, he had long forgotten the specific time.
Especially after the later experience is proficient, he often has to stay in the astral plane until he is mentally exhausted before quitting.
Feeling Niya's soft body at this moment, Xia Duo's spirit relaxed, and he almost couldn't help but fall asleep standing up, he cheered up, let go of Niya, and said to her:
"I'm going to rest, wake me up at night!"
"Hmm."
Nia replied with a bowed head, her voice like a gnat.
……
Afterwards, Xia Duo adjusted the opening hours of the plane exploration layer, from the original uninterrupted opening to the current opening only during daylight hours, and it is still open every other day.
After this adjustment, not only did it not affect his normal exploration progress, but it allowed him to make more discoveries, and even his mental state with Devane was much better.
My Healing Game
In this regard, Xia Duo was almost 100% sure that the Seven Towers, which had been operating the Dimensional Exploration Array for an unknown amount of time, might have accumulated a lot of experience in this area, but they would not let outsiders know about it easily.
Of course, compared to the mage tower (organization) that doesn't even have a dimensional exploration array, the Tower of Time can be regarded as being at the forefront.
On this day, as usual, Xia Duo and Dvarn discussed with Devahn that there might be suspicious points of the projection plane in the locked area of the plane exploration array, and started the first perceptual projection of the day normally.
Needless to say, the process of entering the astral plane is as usual. After entering the astral plane, Xia Duo habitually restrained his mind, so as not to set off the wind of the astral plane and make his consciousness move.
After that, the mind is relaxed and the perception is diffused.
At this time, the original unchanged silver void gradually revealed its true face, and this feeling was like an incomparably smooth silver mirror, at first glance you could see nothing but your own reflection.
But if you zoom in on the precision, all the way down to the molecular and atomic level, you can find that the mirror may not be as smooth and clear as it first seems.
It is covered with uneven and irregular structures, and there are even foreign objects adhering, which is extremely dirty.
Today's Xia Duo looks at the astral boundary, but he doesn't feel dirty, but he feels extremely novel, as if he has discovered the inner world hidden under the surface world.
As the diffusion perception spread, the astral realm gradually changed its appearance in Xia Duo's eyes, and it became no longer the silver void that was absolutely perfect and empty as it was at the beginning.
It's a chaotic field filled with all kinds of primordial spiritual information, like a pot of turbid boiling water!
The spiritual information in it is not necessarily emitted by life, but there are also non-life, and even dimensional information contained in it, but all of this is manifested in spiritual form.
Xia Duo didn't dwell too much on the essence of the astral boundary, after all, he hadn't even studied the normal plane clearly, and he couldn't even get started with such a special plane as the astral plane.
And now, all he has to do is search the projection plane.
Some relatively basic but relatively reliable projection plane features have already been preset in the plane exploration array, otherwise there would be no automatic search.
However, it is more difficult to search for the projection plane in the astral plane than it is to search for the subplane in the interaetheric plane.
This is determined by the nature of the astral plane itself -
The rules of the etheric layer are relatively clear, basically one is one, and two is two;
But the astral realm is a spiritual world, complex and unpredictable, even if it is explored one second and disappears the next, it is not surprising.
Similarly, since the astral plane is a spiritual world, the will of the explorer can be more prominently demonstrated, and if the astral mage is proficient, the speed of discovering the projection plane may far exceed that of the secondary plane.
Of course, this is not to say that astral mages are more useful than plane scholars, but they have their own emphasis!
In the discovery of the projection plane, the addition of human factors may be greater.
……
Xia Duo's search is actually nearing the end, and he and Devahn have already eliminated most of the suspicious points in this locked area.
However, the astral plane is so full of accidents!
After examining the last batch of suspicious points, Xia Duo had a whim, and he didn't know the specific source of this inspiration, and he didn't have time to explore it at the moment.
Simply following his inner instincts, he redirected the center of perception to a suspected area that had been searched and confirmed to have no projection plane.
In the astral plane, intuition may be more useful than experience—
In that curled up and constantly changing mass of information, he actually found that there were several projection plane features in it!
"This is what you found?!"
Xia Duo felt a little incredible, if it was really that simple, then what had he been doing for the past ten or twenty days!
However, the process that should be taken still has to be followed, Xia Duo quickly calmed down, and while repeatedly checking the special information group, he sorted out the operation of returning to the main plane in his heart.
After confirming the existence of projection plane features again, he no longer hesitated, and immediately chose to leave the astral plane.
