Studying Science in the Alternate World

Chapter 264 Senior Arcane Mage

Back in the Axiba tribe, before Duke had time to put down the leaf cloak, he suddenly felt something in his heart, and immediately sat cross-legged on the futon.

Then Xiao Yi's voice was heard.

"Congratulations, master. The second ring of the spiritual core has been officially cultivated. At the end of the ring, you have jumped out of the third ring of the spiritual core, and you are officially promoted to the third ring of senior arcanist."

Without responding to Xiaoyi's congratulations, Duke immediately immersed himself in the wonderful changes in Linghai at this moment after seeing Linghai inside.

The spiritual core, which is usually as small as a stardust, has expanded to the entire range of the spiritual sea at this moment. The huge energy line twists and turns around circle after circle, extending towards the boundless direction. Only Duke can see it clearly the whole picture.

Outside the first layer of spherical structure is the second layer of spherical structure.

And a loop extends outward from the second floor, like a ring surrounding the spiritual core of the entire spherical structure.

It's like a planetary ring on a planet.

"1, 2, 3... 3 rings!" Duke's heart was surging.

In the corner of this wild and desolate continent that no one knew about, among a group of primitive and ignorant oak tribes, he was quietly promoted to a third-ring arcane scholar.

Although the 1st ring, 2nd ring, and 3rd ring belong to the ordinary class, but the 3rd ring is also the ceiling of this class. In such a small place as the Heijiaohe area, the third-ring arcane mages are all big figures who can shake one side by stomping their feet.

On the spiritual core of the three-ring structure, various visions appeared one after another.

The vision of the evolution of the meditation method and the vision of the mysterious evolution of the tree king complement each other, decorating the entire spiritual core like a primitive planet.

The image transformed by Duke's thinking is standing on this primitive planet, greedily enjoying the wonderful moment of being promoted to the third ring.

"Three years, in just three years, I was promoted from the 2nd ring to the 3rd ring!"

On March 12, 4415 in the storm calendar, Duke was promoted to the second-ring arcane mage. Today is March 17, 4418 in the storm calendar, exactly three years old.

Undoubtedly, Duke broke the records of being the youngest 3-ring Arcane Mage and the fastest promoted 3-ring Arcane Mage.

"Unfortunately, no one knows." Duke regretted that he was not promoted in the Seven Towers Federation, so he couldn't enjoy the attention of his colleagues. "But it doesn't matter. When I find the way back, these records will still belong to me."

He checked the information in Offata and read the previous records.

The record of the youngest 3-ring arcane master was held by an arcan master more than 500 years ago, who was promoted to 3-ring at the age of 31.

And Duke is only 22 years old this year, a full nine years ahead of the record.

"I don't believe it anymore, I can still be trapped in the Axiba tribe for nine years!" Duke's thinking incarnation sat cross-legged on the spiritual core, silently feeling the new understanding of spiritual arcana after being promoted to the third ring, "Nine years later, maybe I have cleared the fog of spiritual mysteries and promoted to the 4th ring!"

As long as the practice is fast enough, the record will be Duke's.

"No, why do I care so much about records? I shouldn't care about the speed of my understanding of spiritual mysteries, as long as I can keep expanding my understanding!" Duke raised his brows, he had already understood something, turned around and walked into the spiritual core internal.

In the center of the planet, a portal clearly appeared.

"The Twisted Ring... the arcanist who invented this technology is indeed a great sage!" Dukla opened the door and walked in.

There are scenes hidden in the portal, which are bits and pieces of Duke's life on earth.

"Mom and Dad...Xiaoli, Xiaomin, Xiaomei, Yanyan, Aya..." After watching the scenes, Duke's restless heart also calmed down slowly, "The earth can't go back, so, Just let me live a wonderful life in the wild world."

Close the door and walk out of the spiritual core.

The spiritual core that had spread throughout the entire spiritual sea had quietly returned to its original point and turned into a shining star in the spiritual sea.

On the first ring track, arcane shield arcane wonders, illusion arcane wonders, and healing arcane wonders slowly revolve around the spiritual core.

On the second ring track, the elemental shield arcane wonder, the mind-eyed beast arcane wonder under construction, the hand of the arcane weapon, and the second ring sand eagle also slowly revolve around the spirit core.

On the third ring track, there is nothing surrounding it, but the ring track is clearly visible.

On the ninth ring track farther away, Jiuhuan Xiaoyi and Duke Star are also slowly rotating, and Duke Star seems to have changed a bit.

"Master, the light of Duke's star has become brighter, and the internal ring structure seems to have been released to a certain extent. The imprint of the stars needs to be filled with more spiritual energy. Originally, it could be filled in three days, but now it takes four days to fill it up."

"Well!"

Duke nodded, and then slowly withdrew from Linghai.

Looking at the oak forest in the light rain outside the window, I feel that I have a clearer perception of the world than before I was promoted. It is a state where vision, hearing, smell, taste, touch, and even the sixth sense have all been strengthened. .

"There is a leap from 720p to 1080p." Duke used an abstract example to describe his current feelings.

As soon as he moved his mind, the 1st ring of arcane magic - the hand of the mage was condensed.

The outline is clearer, the texture is more mellow, and the movement of the mage's hand is also more agile, which is almost the same as that of a real person.

Then, under the control of Duke's mind, the mage's hand snapped its fingers with a rumbling sound and dissipated in the air.

Many oak people who hid in the tree house to shelter from the rain immediately knelt down in awe when they saw the mage's hand.

They knew that this was God's lord using a god's method.

"Compared with the 2nd ring, the 3rd ring is much better in controlling the details... It's a pity that I haven't even finished the compulsory courses of the 2nd ring, and I have to be busy with the 3rd ring." Duke grinned and complained with a smile.

On his first track, there is already a vacant seat, waiting for Xiaoyi to design the Eye of the Arcane Tool.

At the same time, on the second ring track, the second arcane wonder has not yet been built, and the sublimation of the Hand of the Arcane Artifact does not occupy much space here - there may even be a vacant space. Usually, the capacity of the second ring track is larger than that of the first one. One ring track is big.

Duke's first track has roughly four slots, and the second track has five slots if nothing else happens.

As for the third ring track, there should be six slots.

"Cultivation is too fast, there is not enough time!" He looked at the progress announced by Xiaoyi, and shook his head with a smile. There are too many things to do, and Xiaoyi has no skills at all. There should also be a qualitative leap in power."

...

Four days later.

A simple steady-state ring position instrument was successfully manufactured by Duke. It did not use metal materials, but was made of various spiritual materials.

"Huh!" Duke heaved a sigh of relief, "The thermostatic card can be made now."

The sweltering heat and humidity of the rainforest has made him almost bored. It rains for half of the day, and the sauna for the rest of the day.

In order to dispel this damp and stuffy environment, he asked Xiaoyi to dispatch a spell model, and stayed up all night to practice two new first-level arcane spells, Endless Wind and Water Condensation, but every time he released an arcane spell, he could only guarantee A moment of comfort.

When the arcana dissipated, the damp air would come again.

Therefore, only by making a constant temperature card can the environment inside the bookstore be effectively adjusted, and with the spiritual crystals excavated from the spiritual mine, there is no need to worry about insufficient spiritual energy.

After a while.

A slightly rough 1st-ring civil arcane card-constant temperature card was freshly released, and Duke couldn't wait to activate the constant temperature card.

In an instant, the temperature in the entire tree house dropped by more than ten degrees, and it became chilly.

"The effect is not bad." Duke showed a satisfied expression, and then inserted the thermostat card into the spirit crystal energy supply box.

After the transformation of the mechanical structure in the box, the spirit crystal can continuously supply energy for the thermostat card. This is the simplest air conditioner.

Blowing the air conditioner, eating the melons and fruits enshrined by the oak people.

Life suddenly becomes comfortable.

But Duke only enjoyed it for a while, and asked in his heart: "Xiao Yi, how long will it take to be filled with the imprints of stars?"

"There are 13 minutes and 54 seconds left, Master."

"Um."

Now he just wants to find the tree king developed by humans as soon as possible and go home as soon as possible.

"I don't know if the Bibo escaped safely after I lured the Sinking Demon away. It stands to reason that the target of the Sinking Demon Miguel is only me. After I 'disappear', it should not go back to trouble the Bibo. The Sinking Demon can Not so stupid."

Duke thought.

The Fallen Demon is a fallen arcanist who has become a slave to spiritual arcana and is driven by instinctive desires, but it does not mean that it has become mentally retarded.

In fact, the Fallen Demon is quite cunning, otherwise, no matter how powerful the Fallen Demon is, it would be eliminated immediately by the arcanists. The Fallen Devil will inherit the wisdom of life, know how to hide and hide, and wait for the right time to reappear and kill.

"Even if the fallen demon Miguel is really brainless and turns back to attack the Bibo, but with the delay of the moonlight cage, Celsas should be able to arrive?"

He shook his head, comforting himself in his heart: "Vivienne will be fine, and Mu Lali and Mu Lashan will be fine, they are just small characters, the 7-ring morning star-level fallen demon Miguel, even if their brains are covered by black smoke If it is burned, it won’t cause trouble for them.”

If there was Duke's wife on the Bibo, maybe the Fallen Devil Miguel might go to take revenge, but it was just a personal guard and assistant, belonging to the follower sequence, and it was not worth the risk of the Fallen Devil Miguel.

"It will be fine... When I go back, the eight Huiyue arcane teachers must each give me a moonlight cage as compensation!"

At the beginning, what he said was nice, and he would ensure Duke's personal safety.

In the end, it was only three days away from the Holy City of Arcana, when it was attacked by Miguel, the Fallen Demon.

"If I hadn't had the Duke Star gifted by Goddess Nyx, I'm afraid this time would be a disaster!" Duke was terrified after thinking about it.

"When you go out in the future, you must fill the imprint of the stars with spiritual energy, so you can run away at any time!"

Even if he was promoted to a 3rd ring Arcane Mage, Duke still couldn't guarantee that he would be able to calmly face the attack of the 7th or even 8th ring level fallen demon.

And most of the fallen demons have been hiding in the spiritual spring to absorb energy for many years, so their strength should not be underestimated.

Safety first must be kept in mind.

"Master, the imprint of the stars has been fully charged." Xiaoyi reminded in time.

After thinking about it for thirteen minutes, Duke took a deep breath, looked inside the spiritual sea, and activated the imprint of the stars.

The surrounding scene began to twist and pull.

After spinning around, he has already appeared in the dream of stars. The previously lit stars are connected by energy lines to form a path leading to the distance.

He looked at the end of the path, and with a flash of thought, the person had already appeared beside the farthest star.

Without the slightest delay, Duke ran to a star farther away, touched it to light up, and instantly transformed into a tree king with three rings.

"It's actually in the swamp, bad review." Duke felt the environment around the tree king clearly, and immediately got out, and his consciousness returned to the dream of stars.

Don't look back, just rush to the second star.

This cycle goes on and on until the thirty-seventh star is lit up, and then I feel a whirl of heaven and earth, and then the whole person returns to reality.

It is still a tree house that has just installed an air conditioner.

"Phew, it's full of star imprints once in four days, and last for half an hour at a time, not bad." Duke expressed satisfaction with the upgrade of Duke's Star. The longer it lasts, the faster he can light up the star and the faster he will go home. morning.

The hope of returning home has greatly increased, and it also allows Duke to stay in the Asibah tribe with peace of mind.

Teach Oak people basic cultivation knowledge, review the materials transcribed from the Offa Tower, and think about some spiritual mysteries.

Occasionally, I would go around the rainforest to hunt spirit beasts or collect spirit plants.

He even chose a few young oak men to serve as his attendants, and studied the power of oak magic and the power of oak war on the opponent's body.

In the final analysis, Duke wanted to figure out how the power of the ancestor of the oak tree was transmitted from a tree to these oak people.

Time flies to April.

"Congratulations to the master, the mind-eyed beast arcane wonder has been successfully built. The mind-eyed beast is like the master's third eye, which can help the master to peek into the most secret corners." Amid Xiaoyi's congratulations, a process has been completed.

Duke looked inside the Linghai, looked at the two arcane wonders of the elemental shield and the mind-eyed beast on the second orbit, and thought silently.

"The space redundancy of the second ring track is no different from what I calculated. Apart from the two arcane wonders and the location of the Hand of the Arcane Artifact, there are two slots... Don't worry about the slots of the second ring for now. First, let’s build an arcane wonder on the third ring.”

There are roughly six slots on the third ring track.

Duke had chosen the first arcane wonder to build early in the morning, and it still belongs to the category of wonder linkage - 3-ring arcane-elemental armor, which can be combined with 1-ring arcane- arcane shield and 2-ring arcane- Elemental shields form a spectacle linkage.

Combined into a 3-ring combo arcane-elemental armor.

The elemental energy armor extends from the shield defense to the entire body, covering the arcanist with a layer of defensive armor full of elemental spiritual energy.

From the point of view of the defensive effect, the 3-ring element energy armor can reach the 4-ring level defense.

"Essence Armor is also the only defense type with 3 rings combined with arcane magic. The three arcane wonders from the 1st ring to the 3rd ring can form a linkage." Duke's most important thing is defense, so the elemental armor wonder is also promoted to the 3rd ring first choice after that.

It's a pity that most of the remaining spectacle linkages are offensive arcane spells, which are not in great demand for Duke, and Sand Eagle is enough.

Perhaps it was luck, and within a few days Duke received good news again.

"Congratulations to the master, the Sand Eagle 2.1 night vision version has been successfully developed. Now the Sand Eagle can be used in a wider environment. Even in the dark, the master can kill the enemy with one blow."

After being promoted to the 3rd ring, Xiaoyi's computing power has been greatly improved, especially with the 3rd ring's hardware level, the development of the 2nd ring's content is very fast.

"Xiaoyi." Duke looked inside the Linghai and saw the new ring structure of the second-ring Sand Eagle, "Can we now sublimate the second-ring Sand Eagle with an arcane weapon and upgrade it to the third ring?"

"I'm sorry master, the underlying logic of the second-ring sand eagle is different from that of ordinary arcane weapons, and it needs to reach the limit of the ring structure to sublimate."

"Then continue to improve its ring structure, um, let me think about it...Add a new process and develop the Sand Eagle 2.2 large-caliber version." Duke chose to increase the caliber of the pistol when he could not sublimate the second-ring Sand Eagle. To increase bullet power.

Before the Second Ring Sand Eagle crossed, it was .357 caliber with 9 bullets inside.

Special effect bullets have been developed, but the caliber of the bullet is still 357 inches. Duke plans to increase the caliber.

"I remember that the Sand Eagle has several calibers, Xiao Yi, you can build it for me with a larger caliber. The bigger the bullet, the better."

"Good master, I have added a new process for you..." Xiaoyi quickly established a new process.

"By the way, I will give you a direction for the subsequent upgrade and evolution of the Sand Eagle." Duke touched his chin, "Improve from a pistol to a submachine gun, and try to transform it into a Gatling... The function should be able to achieve it. ?”

In fact, the current Erhuan Sand Eagle, which looks like a pistol, is essentially a submachine gun, or a submachine gun.

"Gatling... Vulcan Cannon... Cluster Rockets..." Duke muttered to himself.

This is one direction he wants Sand Eagle to evolve in, to create damage on a large scale. At the same time, he has another evolution direction in mind: "It's not impossible to consider individual nuclear bombs... One shot is a nuclear bomb, and Yalong may not be able to bear it." I shoot!"

certainly.

If there is a choice, Duke hopes that the Sand Eagle can evolve into a fallen demon with one shot.

"Chichi." Xiaodou slipped back from outside the study, rubbed against Duke's air conditioner, and panted with his tongue out.

Duke came back to his senses, touched Xiaodou's head, and lifted the hair on top.

You can clearly see the seal of the knight's contract, and the closure of the two rings is almost completed, which means that Xiaodou is about to be promoted to a second-ring spirit beast.

"well!"

Duke let out a long sigh, he even asked someone to refine the magic dragon potion, but after such an experience, Xiaodou didn't even have the chance to take it.

"Chichi." Xiaodou rubbed Duke's palm in enjoyment. He didn't understand his fate, and he had already stumbled.

"The god is great...Duke." The big elf Oak Spirit flew in from the window, and habitually called Duke as the god, but remembered Duke's orders to it, and what the chicken told it about the Seven Towers Federation, Only then did he change his mouth.

"Oak Spirit." Duke nodded calmly.

"You seem to have something on your mind, Duke."

"It's Xiaodou. It had a chance to evolve into a 2-ring phantom beast, and even a 4-ring dragon beast, but now this opportunity has been lost."

"Evolve into a phantom beast." Oak Spirit danced above the small pocket, "Duke, maybe you should ask Abu Abu, he is a wise Oak man, maybe he can have a good solution. Oak People in the rain forest have dealt with many spirit beasts, and know many little secrets of spirit beasts."

"Abu Abu?" Duke was surprised.

To be honest, he didn't think that a level 2 oak mage with a lifespan of only eighty or ninety years could know the secrets of Eudemons.

But Oak Spirit is right, asking more people is better than doing nothing.

He nodded and said, "Then Oak Spirit, call Abu Abu over."

"Okay."

Soon Oak Spirit brought the trembling high priest of the Asibah Tribe into the tree house with a constant temperature of 20 degrees.

This constant temperature card, Duke made several before, and gave it to the Asibah tribe. The people in the tribe were shocked by this, but no one wanted to use it.

They are used to the hot and humid environment of the rainforest, and they are not as delicate as Duke.

"Master God." Abu Abu said these words in Tawen. Duke taught a lot of Tawen to the Asibah tribe. "What do you want?"

"Do you know Eudemons?"

"I don't know." Abu Abu said honestly.

Oak Spirit then asked: "Master Shenming's pet spirit beast needs to evolve, Abu Abu, what secrets do you know about the evolution of spirit beasts?"

"Do spirit beasts evolve?" Abu Abu pondered for a while and recalled, "Master God, Lord Oak Spirit, if I remember correctly, there is a depression on the other side of the river, which is full of swamps. Big rock."

"Rocks deep in the swamp?" Duke's eyes moved slightly.

Xiaoyi has already placed the geographic image of the other side of the Oak River on the Dou Qi holographic screen, and quickly locked on one of the locations.

After zooming in, the rocks in the swamp appeared in the field of vision.

It was a bar-shaped rock about 100 meters high and 400 to 500 meters long, lying in the swamp like a hill.

Abu Abu continued: "I heard from my grandpa that his grandpa told him that his grandpa's grandpa once took advantage of the fact that the Oak River was not so wide, sneaked across the river, ventured into the swamp on the opposite side, and entered this area. The interior of the cave in the rock."

"Then what?"

"At that time, he was hunted down by spirit beasts, so he escaped into a narrow cave. Then he discovered that a magical small fruit would grow on the stone wall of the cave. After eating it, he didn't need to eat acorns for a week, and his stomach remained the same. drumming."

Abu Abu continued: "His grandfather's grandfather was blocked in the cave by a spirit beast, so he just lay there eating and drinking. Until one day, he found a snake entered the cave and ate small fruits, and the snake suddenly sloughed off. Shed her skin and became stronger."

Abu Abu's grandpa's grandpa's grandpa's grandpa followed the snake and felt that it was almost time to leave the cave.

Then he saw that the snake turned into a pair of wings and took off.

"So after that, my grandfather told me this story. He said that the rock is called Flying Snake Rock, and the snake can fly after eating the flying snake fruit inside." Abu Abu finally finished the story. this little story.

"Hmm." Duke nodded.

Although he didn't think that this little fruit that could make snakes fly would help Xiaodou evolve, but he had some interest in the little fruit itself.

In case it is some kind of special spiritual plant, if it is brought back to the Seven Towers Federation, it may not be impossible to find some new discoveries about spiritual plants from this small fruit.

Then get the title of Lingzhi Scholar.

"Abu, Abu, do you know any other similar secrets of spirit beasts?" Duke was not in a hurry to go to Feisnake Rock to find the flying snake fruit.

Abu Abu shook his head: "I can't remember the rest."

Oak people are at the bottom of the food chain in the rainforest. When encountering powerful spirit beasts, they basically hide when they can, and pretend to be dead if they cannot hide. It is really impossible to explore the secrets of spirit beasts.

"Okay." Duke waved his hand and sent Abu Abu away.

Then he greeted Xiaodou: "Come up, let's go to Flying Snake Rock, Oak Ling, do you want to come together?"

"Well, I want to see it too, Duke, I'll go find the chick first." The rubber spirit flew directly to Duke's stomach, and got into the sea of ​​air.

A cloak of oak leaves woven around him.

Duke stood in place, cast "Duke Flying Feather", flew out of the window, and flew straight into the sky towards the other side of the Oak River.

With the illusion arcane to cover their tracks, most spirit beasts would not even notice an arcane mage flying from the sky.

Not long.

A huge rock appeared in the field of vision, and after Duke landed, the holographic display of fighting spirit showed all the surrounding conditions within one or two kilometers.

There is no oak tree here, and the heart of oak that you carry with you will not bring you a boost.

However, only relying on the breath resonance effect of the third-ring Great Elf Envoy can eliminate most of the dangers. After ensuring safety, he began to look for the narrow cave where Abu Abu's grandfather's grandfather's grandfather's grandfather was hiding.

"It should be this." Soon at the edge of the rock, I found a narrow and narrow hole.

Humans would definitely not be able to climb in, but the oak man, who was as thin as a bamboo pole, could just slip into the hole. With a thought in Duke's mind, a little mouse was instantly condensed in front of him with psionic energy.

This is the mind-eye beast arcane spectacle he recently built. The instant 2-ring arcane-mind-eye beast can imitate and transform different kinds of small beasts, detect dangers around, and act as his third eye.

Under the control of Duke's mind, the little mouse crawled into the cave.

Even though the cave was pitch-black, Duke could still see his surroundings clearly, and climbed all the way to the cave in the center of the rock.

Then.

He saw a fruit with a faint green light hanging on the wall of the cave, but before he could see it clearly, his vision suddenly went dark and he lost contact with the little mouse.

"Huh?" Duke raised his eyebrows, "There's even a spirit beast hiding inside."
