When it comes to overclocking, many people probably immediately think of computer overclocking.

Especially hardware such as CPU, graphics card, and memory sticks in desktop computers can be overclocked, thereby obtaining free performance improvements on fixed hardware configurations.

The soul overclocking envisioned by Zhou Ming simulates the overclocking of computer hardware to increase the frequency of his soul.

How to simulate it?

You must know that the soul is not an entity, but a special existence with energy attributes. It is completely different from a computer. How to overclock?

Zhou Ming has his own way.

Make a soul chip.

Because after analysis by the system, it was discovered that the souls of creatures in this plane have a special frequency (that is, the soul frequency).

The size of this frequency is related to many factors.

But it mainly depends on two things.

One, the density of magic power.

The greater the density of magic power, the more energy it provides, and the greater the frequency it generates... This is why as the magic power continues to grow, the frequency of the soul will also slowly increase.

Two, the quality of the soul.

In other words, the "quality" of the soul, this thing is so mysterious that it cannot be explained clearly.

But it can be understood as the "compression ratio" of the soul. The more compact the soul is, the higher the frequency will be.

You can also make an analogy, the soul is equivalent to an invisible CPU, and the magic power is equivalent to the energy of this CPU.

So how to overclock?

On the one hand, the soul must be continuously compressed.

On the other hand, the supply of magic power must be increased.

Corresponding to the two steps of computer overclocking in reality, Zhou Ming's soul overclocking here is also two steps.

Compressing the soul = increasing the working frequency.

Increase the magic power supply = increase the operating voltage.

The combination of these two steps equals soul overclocking.

This may sound simple.

However, the specific implementation is an extremely complicated process, which is trillions of times more difficult than computer overclocking.

Even Zhou Ming, who came up with this bold idea, was unable to operate his own soul... just like a person cannot lift himself up with his hands.

Fortunately, he has a system.

A system that is proficient in soul manipulation can help him solve the problem of soul compression.

In terms of magic output, Zhou Ming can control himself.

So with the help of the system, it took about a month for the system to simulate the structure of the CPU and compress 40% of his soul into a "soul chip"... In the invisible world, this chip was less than Fingernails are large.

So what does this soul chip do?

One, the working frequency is particularly high.

Even its basic working frequency index has reached 1.55431... This has entered the category of a great magician.

And if the magic output is increased, it also has about 5% overclocking potential.

In other words, the maximum soul frequency that Zhou Ming can control can reach 1.6320.

And what was his original soul frequency?

Only 1.3002.

After the soul chip was successfully produced, Zhou Ming's soul frequency exceeded a maximum of 25.5%.

This is quite a scary thing.

Secondly, Zhou Ming's mind is smarter.

Because the soul chip simulates the architecture of a computer CPU, it has extremely strong mathematical computing capabilities. According to system calculations, the soul chip in Zhou Ming's soul has a maximum floating point computing power of 5 trillion times... comparable to a Taiwan small supercomputer.

Of course, superb mathematical operation ability does not mean that a person is very smart. It can only prove that the person has strong arithmetic ability, other logical reasoning, observation, innovative thinking and association skills... these are all part of "smart".

The soul chip only strengthened Zhou Ming tens of thousands of times through mathematical calculations.

Even so, Zhou Ming was very satisfied. Mathematics could reveal the nature of the laws of everything. As his mathematical ability improved, his abilities in other aspects also improved a lot.

In a sense, the system is a "super-god brain" through a soul chip.

But... after producing the soul chip, in addition to the advantages, there are also certain disadvantages.

There are mainly two disadvantages.

One, after 40% of Zhou Ming's soul is formed into the soul chip, this part of the soul cannot be used normally. It will always be in a "hardware" state and can only participate in a small part of the work. The other 60% of the soul can only You can participate in various free activities.

This is actually not difficult to understand, because Zhou Ming is not a computer. Part of his soul forms the back of the chip; the other part can only undertake various ideological activities.

Correspondingly, when the soul chip is not activated, his basic strength will be significantly weakened.

After turning on the soul chip and entering the "overclocking" state, he can become super powerful and kill monsters beyond his level.

But this also brings up a second problem.

Energy consumption and "heat dissipation" issues.

After the soul chip is turned on, it consumes a lot of magic power. If the power is too high, problems such as poor "heat dissipation" will occur, causing the chip structure to be unstable or even collapse.

If the soul chip collapses, 40% of Zhou Ming's soul will completely collapse, and he will suffer heavy losses.

Therefore, overclocking is very risky. If you are not careful, 40% of Zhou Ming's soul will be gone.

But Zhou Ming still dared to take risks and made this attempt.

Because as his strength grows in the later period, his magic power and soul will continue to increase. At that time, he can choose to upgrade the soul chip, or he can choose to improve his basic strength... Just like the allocation of attribute points, it depends on his needs for advantages. To be strengthened, the shortcomings need to be improved...add points as needed.

In short, for Zhou Ming, as long as the soul frequency is super clever, it can bring him great benefits.

For example, as a senior magician, he has now created a "little ice pick" with a temperature below zero and a hundred degrees.

The first-level ice magic [Ice Cone Technique] is an exclusive magic that only great magicians can release.

Zhou Ming can also be released.

The benefits of soul overclocking are now reflected.

Why do you say that?

Because among the five conventional magics, there is the saying of "law suppression".

Namely: wind, fire, earth, water, and ice. These five magics. The magic of the previous series can significantly suppress the next series.

For example, the lethality of fire magic is obviously greater than that of wind magic.

The defensive power of earth magic can obviously suppress the fire element, and the earth magic that can condense entities such as [stone bullets] and [stone cones] is not weak in attack power.

But in the face of water magic, earth and fire magic are not enough. Under the impact of [waterspout], the earth and stone are disintegrated and the flames are extinguished. Even the softest water has a very powerful side, and water A magician who can nourish all things, alleviate drought, and is proficient in water magic is a very popular existence in various countries.

Not to mention, the lethality of certain water magics, such as [High Speed ​​Water Jet], cannot be underestimated.

However, no matter how powerful the water magic is, it is a bit unsatisfactory in front of the ice magic.

What does ice do?

One is the low temperature, which is unbearable for ordinary people. Many people may only lose a few pieces of skin and flesh on the surface and disfigure their face if they are burned. If they suffer severe frostbite, they may have to amputate their limbs, and the low temperature will cause biological reactions. It slows down and moves sluggishly. Ice magic is particularly useful against some creatures with higher agility.

Secondly, ice magic can be said to be completely suppressive to water magic. The power of water lies in its fluidity. Once the water is frozen and unable to flow, there is no need to mention its lethality.

In the face of ice magic, water magic is at a disadvantage.

Hey, isn't there fire magic? Can't fire magic restrain ice magic?

Someone will definitely ask this.

This is indeed the case. When a high-temperature fireball of thousands of degrees acts on an ice cube at a hundred degrees below zero, the ice cubes will definitely melt and have a certain restraint effect. But don't forget that mages who know ice magic usually also master water magic. Magic, ice and water magic are used at the same time. No matter how powerful the fire magic is, it still has to be thrown into the street.

Therefore, the higher the level of a magician, the stronger the ability to suppress the next level of magician.

It is almost impossible for a low-level mage to challenge a high-level mage in an attempt to "kill monsters beyond the level".

Only people like Zhou Ming, who overclocks his own soul, have the slightest chance... This is exactly why he wants to overclock. If he faces a strong enemy in the future, he must have certain means of dealing with it, instead of Being suppressed by the opponent.

In addition, in addition to the regular system, there are three rare magic systems: thunder system, light system, and space system.

Only magicians above the legendary level can get involved in research on these three rare systems.

The requirements for soul frequency are naturally higher.

Especially the space system. Zhou Ming, who originally wanted to learn space system magic and then make a large number of cheap space rings to make a lot of money, learned from the system the requirements for the soul frequency to master space system magic. He shook his head repeatedly: It's too high, it's really too high.

"Even the Dharma Saint doesn't have such a high soul frequency, right?"

Therefore, Zhou Ming's idea of ​​making a space ring by himself is just a distant dream for now.

"Let's improve slowly. Let's enter the realm of the legendary mage first... Maybe, after I advance to the legendary level, relying on soul overclocking, maybe I can surpass the realm of space magic?"

It's just over 100%, maybe to that extent?

In short, now Zhou Ming, in addition to normal meditation every day, is thinking about how to increase the frequency of the soul chip.
