Chapter 1495: New Discovery, Arcane Energy Field

Quickly arriving at the Laboratory, Buluode and Iolum were both there, though Luowei, Gawani, and the others were not; Xia Duo did not pay much mind to this and asked directly:

"Teacher, Buluode, what happened? Was there a breakthrough in the experiment?"

Iolum and Buluode exchanged a glance, and in the end, it was Buluode who spoke, "The previous experiments are still proceeding according to plan, gradually discovering and improving upon issues; there have been no breakthrough developments."

"Then what exactly happened? The tone Teacher used just now didn't sound like nothing happened! Did some accident occur? By the way, where are Luowei and the others?"

"Ahem—Luowei and the others are fine, stop guessing wildly; there were no accidents, it's just that we discovered a brand-new method of energy transmission!"

At this moment, Buluode could no longer hide his joyful expression, pulling Xia Duo to the experimental area to the side; at this time, the experimental area seemed to have just undergone an Independent Arcane Fire Device full-system test, bearing very fresh traces of a Semi-plane overlap.

In the experimental area, apart from a pile of neatly stacked Arcane Crystals, there was nothing else at all.

Seeing this scene, Xia Duo was very confused and turned to look at Iolum, but could only see the other nodding with a smile, seemingly letting Xia Duo watch patiently.

A brand-new method of energy transmission? What exactly is it like?

Xia Duo was indeed piqued by a trace of curiosity.

Very quickly, Buluode's spell was completed, and the Arcane Crystals that originally possessed physical form within the experimental area suddenly turned into formless Arcane Energy and flowed into the Magic Net.

Seeing this scene, Xia Duo, who had been somewhat expectant, could not help but feel a bit disappointed; once Arcane Energy enters the "mouth" of the Magic Net, is there any way to spit it back out?

Could it be that the new energy transmission method uses the Magic Net to achieve ultra-long-distance energy transmission?

Theoretically speaking, it is indeed possible, but energy is different from spells; pure energy will be naturally absorbed by the Magic Net, and who knows if the energy extracted from the Magic Net far away is still the same energy stored by the other party?

The process of obtaining energy from the Magic Net is not complicated, and the threshold is not high; long-distance energy transmission has no real practical use at all.

Just as Xia Duo was silently grumbling, Buluode's demonstration continued; the Arcane Crystals in the experimental area had flowed into the Magic Net, but they had not completely disappeared.

Immediately following, Xia Duo discovered with surprise that the surrounding Magic Net seemed to have undergone some unknown changes, but upon careful observation, he could not see the specific spell details.

Entering a macroscopic perspective, Xia Duo then discovered that the Magic Net within the Semi-plane of the experimental area was actually presenting regular knots, seemingly constituting a large-scale special field.

But reflected in reality, nothing happened at all?

Could it be a Lonely Field?

But grumbling aside, Xia Duo had already seen at this moment that the new type of energy transmission method Buluode wanted to demonstrate was likely not long-distance transmission, but another form.

Just at this time, Iolum also arrived at the experimental area, first saying, "The amount of Arcane Energy required for a separate demonstration was underestimated," and then he took out another pile of Arcane Crystals.

Xia Duo made a preliminary estimate; counting what Buluode had consumed before, it was roughly four or five hundred thousand Standard Arcane Crystals in total.

Even if the current Independent Arcane Fire Device could barely harvest them, it was still somewhat too extravagant given that it had not yet entered the practical stage.

However, everything that happened next quickly changed his mind.

After Iolum also poured that pile of Arcane Crystals into the Magic Net, the special field woven by the macroscopic Magic Net finally manifested in reality.

It was a layer of uniform, extremely faint blue radiance; if it were outside, against the backdrop of the blue sky, it might be hard for people to notice, but in this enclosed Laboratory, it was enough to be discovered.

Situated within this special radiance field, Xia Duo did not feel the slightest abnormality; its microscopic structure of the Magic Net had not changed at all, meaning it did not affect normal Spellcasting.

It could even have no effect at all!

Then what is the use of this? Could it just be for looks?

"Xia Duo, try the 5th-circle Element Unit - ΞΩΞΔΠΣΓΟΣΔΠΓΣ!"

"Mm!"

Xia Duo was not unfamiliar with the Element Unit Iolum spoke of; in fact, he could be said to be very familiar with it. Once cast, a point of bright light emerged from the Spell Source Point.

The next moment, a Standard Arcane Crystal landed on the hand Xia Duo had already extended and waited with beneath the Spell Source Point.

"This—"

Xia Duo looked at his palm in surprise; there truly lay a knuckle-sized Standard Arcane Crystal, but what he had just cast was not a complete Spell, only a part of the 5th-circle element portion of the 【Create Arcane Crystal】 spell.

Normally speaking, it was impossible to create an Arcane Crystal; if nothing else, where would the Arcane Energy come from? The normal Magic Net does not contain Arcane Energy, which is clearly a special energy synthesized artificially!

Then there is only one explanation—

The special field that Buluode and Iolum just demonstrated is essentially Arcane Energy; its change to the macroscopic structure of the Magic Net caused the feedback results of some spell elements within this field to change, similar to the effect of a Mythallar.

Going a step further, if the range of this special Arcane Energy Field were larger, wouldn't it be the best method of energy transmission?

No, it should be called the best method of energy supply!

How energy is transmitted is not important; the key lies in how energy interacts with the user!

Thinking of this, Xia Duo continued to attempt Spellcasting, but this time he did not try the partial element casting Iolum mentioned, but instead cast a complete Spell.

The Spell took effect normally, but Xia Duo clearly felt that the source of the spell energy was not the basic energy or elements in the Magic Net, but the Arcane Energy Field filling the space around him.

After trying several times in succession, the result was the same.

At this time, Buluode finally found an opportunity to continue the demonstration, "Xia Duo, look at this again!"

He was seen first exiting the experimental area filled with the Arcane Energy Field, and only then did he take an object resembling a Crystal Ball from his Dimensional Bag; Xia Duo could not see any Magic Aura from it, and it seemed to truly be just a Crystal Ball.

But immediately following, as Buluode approached the Arcane Energy Field bit by bit, the Crystal Ball actually appeared with wisps of unstable Magic Aura; the spell elements it reacted to were not complete, but Xia Duo could vaguely identify that it should be a Light spell.

Sure enough, after Buluode completely entered the Arcane Energy Field, the Magic Aura of the Crystal Ball finally became stable, and the spell elements it reacted to also became very complete; it was indeed a Light spell.

This somewhat broke Xia Duo's cognition; could the Arcane Energy Field also automatically complete spell elements, and even allow the Magic Net to automatically link with quasi-Magic Items, turning them into Magic Items?

For a time, Xia Duo fell into deep thought.
