Chapter 1671: Base Completion and Probing
By noon, Xia Duo and Niya ate a simple meal directly in the Blue Crystal Plane, and after resting for a while, they continued to print Mithril Circuits in the Main Energy Center of the Floating City.
It was like this until evening, when the six layers of Mithril Circuits for the six Suspension Field Bases in the six directions were all completely printed.
"That's enough, let's stop here for today and continue tomorrow."
Xia Duo tossed the printing machine aside and called for Niya, preparing to return to the Main Plane, but Niya was somewhat reluctant, "Aren't you going to test the effect?"
"Now?"
"Yeah, I still have to take a test tomorrow morning; it wouldn't be good if I missed it."
Niya's words almost made Xia Duo laugh, but this was also his own arrangement; if it weren't for the urgent need to build these Suspension Field Generation Bases today, Niya would have only come to help in the afternoon anyway.
If it were tomorrow, she indeed wouldn't come in the morning. Thinking of this, Xia Duo naturally wouldn't refuse Niya's small request: "Then please endure your hunger for a little longer!"
Saying this, Xia Duo began to install the Arcane Crystals that would serve as energy buffering cores and backup energy for the six Suspension Field Generation Bases.
The current Magic Net environment of the plane is special; if one wants to link to the Magic Net, an additional adapter is needed, but the Floating City's Redundant System has off-grid energy lines.
And as the most important part of the Floating City, the Energy Center's related facilities are undoubtedly also part of the Redundant System.
In fact, the Mithril Circuits Xia Duo printed this time were not just for the Levitation Field, but also involved the Flight Control System and other subsequent systems; it could be considered pre-wiring.
Since he intended to test them, he simply activated all six sets of Levitation Fields. Although the other systems were not fully completed, this part of the Mithril Circuits could still perform a simple self-check.
Soon, majestic energy began to flow and transform within the Mithril Circuits. Although this process could not be seen with the naked eye, it was indeed affecting the external Magic Net environment.
Parts of the Magic Net Strings began to unconsciously converge toward specific areas, thereby forming a scene of Magic Aura that was bright and dark, overall brilliant and shining like stars.
Niya looked around, circled the space of the Energy Center, and finally came to Xia Duo's side, saying somewhat strangely: "It seems there's no difference from before?"
"If it really made you feel a clear difference, then there would be a problem!"
Xia Duo was actually quite surprised by this result in his heart, but what he was surprised by was not that there was no difference, but that the Mithril Circuits he and Niya printed had not encountered any problems at all.
Although they checked constantly during the printing process, as long as it is manual work, it is inevitable that there will be omissions. Today could be considered a significant project, and the fact that there were no errors throughout was truly surprising.
However, looking at Niya's still-puzzled expression, Xia Duo smiled and reminded her, "Don't forget we are currently in the Blue Crystal Plane. The gravity here is negligible to begin with, so even with the addition of the Levitation Field, it's impossible for you to feel any obvious difference."
"Oh!"
Niya's face flushed, her eyes rolled around, and she hurriedly changed the subject, "Then let's go back now!"
"Since we're already late, let's just do the encapsulation while we're at it; it won't take much time."
Encapsulation is to protect the Mithril Components or Mithril Circuits. In fact, encapsulation had already begun during the daytime printing process; every time a layer of Mithril Circuits was printed, it was encapsulated. Now it was just a final, overall one.
This hides the Mithril Circuits that could be seen with the naked eye after the previous ordinary encapsulation, and even has a certain hiding effect on the Magic Aura.
Future maintenance will only be carried out through several fixed detection ports, rather than directly viewing the Mithril Circuits, which is also conducive to confidentiality.
After all, one can never predict that everyone who comes here is one of their own.
Xia Duo took action himself, so the final encapsulation naturally wouldn't have any accidents. In fact, even if another ordinary High Mage were to do it, the probability of failure would be low.
After finishing all this, Xia Duo looked at the empty Energy Center, his heart filled with hope; it would soon be full!
"Let's go, let's go home!"
"Mm!"
The next morning.
Xia Duo and Niya finished breakfast and were preparing to head to the Blue Crystal Plane to begin installing and debugging the David String Automatic Preparation Platform. Thinking that the Magic Restriction Treaty had already taken effect, a strong sense of dissatisfaction surged in his heart again.
"Niya, do you want to see how effective the Elven Monitoring Divine Art is?"
"You are—" Niya opened her mouth in surprise.
"Of course I have to try. If I don't try, how would I know if they are bluffing me? If that were the case, wouldn't I be tying my own hands?"
Upon hearing this, Niya couldn't find any words to refute him. Anyway, the super-magic quota allocation plan had already been issued, so she let Xia Duo mess around.
Soon, Xia Duo brought Niya to a spot in mid-air on the north side of Wolf God Mountain again. He had experimented with an Equation Spell here last time; if it weren't for letting Niya practice dispelling a Mythallar, that spell might still be here!
And this time, he did not intend to dispel this spell; he wanted to see in what form this spell would appear in the Elven Monitoring Divine Art.
Since he intended to challenge the Elven Monitoring Divine Art, Xia Duo added Mythallar encryption and Permission Level distribution mechanisms to this spellcasting, making this spell closer to a Micro-Mythallar.
Although in essence this spell might be a Mythallar, it was purely Netheril Magic, unrelated to the Elven Mythallar; perhaps it was just a case of different paths leading to the same destination on the Magic Path.
This attempt could almost be considered Xia Duo's masterpiece, a combination of the culmination of Netheril Magic—the Equation Spell—and the supreme spell in Elven Magic—the Mythallar.
Before the attempt, Xia Duo cast spells such as Avoidance of Detection, Shield Monitoring, and Clear Traces on himself, and even set up a Virtual Illusion to hide his real actions as much as possible.
The final spellcasting process was much more cumbersome than the previous one that only involved the Equation Spell, but Xia Duo enjoyed it. If the previous Equation Spell didn't count, this should be his first attempt at creating a Mythallar himself.
May everything go smoothly!
The nearly hour-long focused spellcasting did not make Xia Duo feel the slightest bit tired; on the contrary, he felt very excited at this moment because he had succeeded.
From about halfway through the spellcasting, he knew he was very likely to succeed. For the second half, he almost forcibly suppressed the joy in his heart, maintaining a state of high concentration throughout, and finally completed the spell.
Unlike the previous simple Equation Spell, this time the spell did not have an obvious Spell Source Point, but appeared as slightly undulating, orderly Magic Net fluctuations.
This was already a characteristic of a Mythallar.
Xia Duo also didn't expect that his original intention was to hide the Spell Source Point that could be operated by others, but after layers of restrictions, it actually evolved into something similar to Mythallar Permission.
