【Arcane Fire】: Its essence is a micro Magic Net that is converged and curled up; it can be expanded to assist Spellcasting or for other purposes.

The efficiency of generating Arcane Energy is related to the layer of the Magic Net the Arcanist is in contact with:

Taking the actual energy consumption of a 1st Circle Spell as 1, 2nd Circle as 2, 3rd Circle as 3, 4th Circle as 5, 5th Circle as 10

A newly advanced Arcanist, actually contacting the 5th layer of the Magic Net, generates at most 10 points of Arcane Energy per day,

Contacting the 6th layer == 20 points

7th layer == 50~80 points

8th == 100~200

9th == 200~500

10th == 900~1600

A Standard Arcane Crystal contains 1000 points of Arcane Energy, which is roughly the actual energy consumption of a 10th Circle Spell.

If using the Magic Net to cast Spells, the Mage does not need to provide energy, as it is paid entirely by the Magic Net; in the absence of the Magic Net, one must provide their own energy.

The production capacity of Arcane Energy, besides undergoing leap-style improvements through leveling up, can also be slowly grown over time by the Arcane Fire to gradually increase production, though it is not as fast as leveling up.

An Arcanist who only contacts the 5th layer of the Magic Net, if they do not level up, may never be able to increase their Arcane Fire production capacity to 100 points per day, which is the lower limit of a Senior Arcanist's daily Arcane Energy production.

The reason the 【Mythallar】 is powerful lies in its long-term maintenance of high-power energy output; a Floating City needs to fly itself, provide its own Protection, and sustain the consumption of its residents—it cannot just fly for a few days and then fall down to "refuel," right~

*The protagonist currently contacts the 9th layer of the Magic Net (leveled up after researching the Blazing Sun Array); ideally, he can harvest one Standard Arcane Crystal every two or three days.

————【God-descendant Bloodline】:

Level 1: Constitution enhancement, Water Control

Level 5: Wind Control, Darkvision

Level 10: Riding the Clouds and Mist, Dragon's Majesty, Dragon's Magic Resistance, Soul State

After multiple awakenings, the Soul has transformed from 【Indeterminate Form】 to 【True Form】; Faith Power striking the Soul will trigger a radiance that illuminates a small space around the Soul. Furthermore, this radiance can also shine through the body, though its effect is currently unknown.

In the new Soul State, the naked eye can directly observe Cloud Qi suspected to be Faith Power, without affecting normal vision.

New Soul form === Memory Retrospection ability

Space around the Soul === can send the Soul to the Outer Planes, including one's own, but cannot yet return independently.

————【Spells】:

Creation School: Includes pain, armor, incantations, destruction, energy, slaughter, and summoning, etc., equivalent to a fusion of the three schools of Evocation, Conjuration, and Protection.

Transmutation: Includes driving, manipulating the dead, dispelling Spells, Protection, deflection, transformation, teleportation, etc., equivalent to a fusion of the schools of Necromancy, Protection, and Transmutation.

Mind School: Mind Spells, as well as Divination Spells.

————————

When the protagonist was Primary Rank, he was mainly proficient in the Creation School, with representative Spells being 【Imprisonment Orb】 and 【Mage Armor】; at Intermediate Rank, he began to study Transmutation, with the representative Spell being 【Flight】; at Advanced Rank, it is 【Teleportation】.

Mind Spells mastered by the protagonist: Arcane Empire Judgment Spell series, Mind Link, Greta's Mind Protection, etc.

Mind Spells are not Psionic, but Spells that act upon the mind, including illusion-type Spells or soul attacks, etc.

————【Items】:

【Pioneer Scepter】: Magnificent and extraordinary, silver-white in its entirety, with a transparent blue Gemstone embedded at the top, and the lord's seal at the bottom of the handle. The staff body and the Gemstone constantly vibrate the surrounding Magic Net, shining with spiritual light. Functions: 1. Immunity to Mind Spells; 2. Leave a lord's mark.

【Territory Document】: Modeled after the 【Nether Scroll】, it appears as an 8-inch by 10-inch thin gold foil page, as flexible as paper, with silver magic script flowing slowly across its surface as if alive. Function: Proof document for a Territory and Lord.

【Blade of Veto】: Obtained from the Projection Plane, a standard magic longsword from the Sword Singer training camp in Sukanweisa City, Maiyelita Wang Guo, during the Crown War. Functions: 1. Passive Spell Resistance; 2. Active dispel magic, with effects similar to 【Dispel Magic】 or 【Antimagic Field】.

【Crimson Shelter Robe】: Borrowed (or gifted?) from Niya, it is dark red in appearance and can be slightly adjusted in size, automatically adapting to the wearer's physique. Functions: 1. Weak elemental smoothing ability (similar to a temperature-regulating Jieti); 2. Weak passive Protection; 3. Strong reactive Protection; 4. Active Protection.

【Focus Ring】: Reward from the Arcane Competition, black in body with inlaid silver patterns. Function: Passively increases the user's level of focus.

【Wisdom Circlet】: A silver-white circlet inlaid with a White Crystal. Initially borrowed by Niya to Xia Duo, it was never asked back and has been worn by Xia Duo ever since. Function: Similar to the 【Focus Ring】, providing a passive focus buff.

【Elven Magic Arrow】: Obtained from the Mythallar Ruins, it appears as a tubular structure woven from Mithril wire with a decayed arrow shaft in the middle. Functions: 1. A weapon of mass destruction that could explode in one's hand at any time; 2. Research purposes.

【Dimensional Bag】: Produced by the Tower of Time, items stored inside cannot be stolen. The one previously purchased from the Arcane Union has already been disposed of. Functions: Storage, weightless.

【Jade Pendant】: Obtained from the Mythallar Ruins, a Magic Item. Function: Cleaning (1st Circle level).

【Amulet of Mind】: Although the 【Pioneer Scepter】 provides immunity to mind-affecting Spells, an extra layer of protection is never a bad thing.

Others: Several Magic Scrolls, several books and notes, some coins, 2 Adamantine Knives, 2 Hollow Mithril Spheres, a few Mithril Flowers, and some dry rations and water.

Several other sundries.

New items:

【Magic Flying Sword 1.0】 *2

This is a shuttle-shaped strange weapon, one arm long, sharp at both ends and slightly thicker in the middle. The main body is grayish-white, and the surface is covered with fine blue patterns.

The body was crafted by Master Buloutuo and is capable of piercing dragon scales. Arcanist Xia Duo added magic properties to it.

Body materials: Adamantine, Iron, strengthening agents (trace elements + casting techniques); Magic materials: Mithril, Arcane Crystal, Adamantine casing.

Main functions:

1. Flight,

Cruising speed: 30 meters per second, no time limit, can be turned off.

Burst speed: 300 meters per second, 10 seconds (requires activating the piercing function; if the maximum speed is not reached, the duration is extended accordingly; it can also be activated for a short time and then rely on inertia to fly, gradually decreasing to cruising speed. The actual attack time is not limited to 10 seconds; if controlled precisely, one can burst to maximum speed only at the moment of attack).

2. Piercing,

Creates a shuttle-shaped Vacuum Domain slightly larger than the body around the Flying Sword, no time limit, can be turned off.

Silent, high-speed flight; hitting biological flesh causes additional vacuum damage.

3. Invisibility,

Conventional Invisibility, does not reveal upon attacking, no time limit, can be turned off.

4. Charging,

Stays in a charging state when linked to the Magic Net.

Note: After a burst speed attack, it can only fly at the maximum cruising speed and needs to wait for charging. Forcing an attack will result in damage to the Energy Core.

【Spellbook 1.0】 *1

This is a strange Spellbook encased in Adamantine. Although the surface has been changed in color with Drow camouflage paint to look like an ordinary light gray Spellbook, one will know its power when using it to smash someone!

Body materials: Adamantine, Mithril, Arcane Crystal; Inner Pages: Mithril, paper.

Main functions: Flight, Invisibility, auxiliary Spellcasting.

Key features:

1. Composite elements: A conventional design scheme for modern Netheril Spellbooks. One inner page contains all elements of the same Spell at different circles, and only the corresponding one needs to be triggered when used.

2. Three cores: Uses three Standard Arcane Crystals as the Spellbook's Energy Buffering core. It can trigger three Spell inner pages simultaneously, regardless of circle. However, as the cost of triggering three pages at once, the Spellbook requires some extra time to balance the rapid buffering and opposition of energy.

3. Upgradable: But only the Spell inner pages can be upgraded. The Spellbook body requires disassembly and remaking to upgrade. The current 1.0 version of the Spellbook can support inner page upgrades up to 9th Circle, with 10th Circle being barely possible.

*Newly added:

【Ioun Stone】 *2: A greeting gift from Kangjienio. There were three in total. Xia Duo kept the 【Spell Reversal】 and 【Focus】 ones, and the 【Constitution】 one was gifted by Xia Duo to Niya.
