Chapter 1915: Timeliness Maintenance

Subsequently, Yisite demonstrated it right in front of Xia Duo; as the power originating from his soul's will was released, Yisite's Arcane Energy form seemed to encounter energy decay.

Accompanied by the dissipation of a small amount of Arcane Energy, his physical body rapidly transformed into another form, namely the Saint Form, which resembled a light-matter Elf.

Almost at the same time as the form transformation, Xia Duo felt the surrounding Magic Net cheering and responding to Yisite; without needing any extra actions, Yisite automatically gained a Domain that boosted Spellcasting.

But before Xia Duo could ask for more details, the light-matter on Yisite's body rapidly retracted, reverting into the original flesh-and-blood Elf form. At this moment, his face was pale, he was panting heavily, and he did not forget to explain to Xia Duo:

"Entering the Saint Form from the Arcane Energy form will greatly reduce the duration of the Saint Form's existence and is extremely exhausting. The transformation process still needs to be perfected; it is truly too crude right now!"

Taking the opportunity to speak, Yisite smoothed out his breathing slightly and continued: "I think that for now, the Arcane Energy form can be used as a regular Spellcasting form. It has no obvious weaknesses, its mobility is stronger, and compared to the original flesh-and-blood state, the advantages are very obvious."

"Next, if Mage Asuosi has no other plans, I am prepared to first perfect the transformation process from the Arcane Energy form to the Saint Form, so that the Arcane Energy Elf can be accepted by more high-level Mages."

"Decide for yourself!"

Xia Duo did not intend to continue staying in this Projection Plane; whatever Yisite wanted to do next had nothing to do with him, though he would not miss the specific test report on the other party's body.

It would likely be a matter of a day or two.

Next, Xia Duo focused his attention on the construction of the New Mythallar in Evereska. With the complete dismantling of the Old Mythallar and the completion of the combing and resetting work for the Magic Net environment, the construction of the New Mythallar officially started.

Unlike the test version in Wild Vine Valley, the official version tailored to the specific geographical environment would incorporate specific geographical data, and the construction itself could actually be seen as the final ultimate test.

This morning, Xia Duo arrived early at the Duli Guangchang, which was located almost in the center of the city, but compared to the previous Independence Declaration release ceremony, there were clearly no spectators today.

There were only heavily armed soldiers and Spellcasters who had placed the square and the district it was in under heavy martial law, and because the Mythallar involved the entire city, Patrols were also arranged in other districts to remain vigilant at all times.

At this moment, in the center of the square, there was one more sculpture of a code and a sword than in the past. Except for the design, which Xia Duo participated in, everything else was decided by the Council of Elders.

And this sculpture was the only link between the future New Mythallar and the material world. Xia Duo had originally thought that the Council of Elders would place the Node in a more hidden place, but he did not expect it to be placed directly in the public eye.

Regarding this, the Council of Elders' reason was—rather than placing it in a hidden place to be coveted by those with ulterior motives, it was better to place it under the public's nose to be monitored and guarded by the public together.

As for the safety of the Node, Xia Duo did not worry too much. This sole Node itself could be regarded as the foundation of the Mythallar's existence; while it involved a large amount of secrets and was even directly linked to certain important Permission Levels.

Yet it was itself extremely "sturdy." Additionally, although the Council of Elders placed the Mythallar Node in a public place, it was impossible for them to do no Protection work at all.

Basically, as long as it was not a crisis on the level of destroying the nation, the Node itself would not be in danger of damage.

The only thing to worry about was time. Long periods of time would wear away many things that originally looked very sturdy, and the Mythallar was no exception, which required corresponding logistics personnel to maintain it from time to time.

Just then, Saijisi leaned over to Xia Duo's side and asked in a low voice: "How much longer until we can start?"

Xia Duo checked the 【Magic Moment】 and recalled the environmental parameters of the official version of the Mythallar. After a slight calculation, he gave a relatively accurate answer:

"It can start in about an hour."

Because many parameters of the official version of the Mythallar needed to be adapted to local conditions, the choice of time was actually very particular. Only by completing the Mythallar at the right time could the Mythallar be made to fit the current environment to the maximum extent.

In fact, much of the work for future Mythallar maintenance, besides the Mythallar itself, largely lay in maintaining such timeliness.

In addition, urban construction, land development, and even house renovation would, to a certain extent, affect the timeliness of the Mythallar, only with differences in magnitude.

Xia Duo seriously suspected whether the class solidification of Elf society also had factors in this regard—was it because they chose to be as unchanging as the past so as not to let the Mythallar fail!

The fewer Nodes a Mythallar had, the higher the requirements in this regard. This was also the reason why Xia Duo did not design a single-Node Mythallar for the Floating City; besides wanting to incorporate the 【Mythallar】 into the Mythallar system, it was more important that future renovations of the Floating City might be relatively frequent.

After all, he was not someone who stuck to old ways!

As for today, if the ritual's Spellcasting team missed the "auspicious time" an hour later, they could only re-select a new construction time based on the environmental parameters.

Basically, as long as Evereska's environment did not undergo major changes, the most suitable window period was about once every four days, lasting about four hours each time.

However, as the designer of the Mythallar, Saijisi should not be completely ignorant of this basic situation.

Just as Xia Duo was wondering if Saijisi had a screw loose today, Saijisi asked again: "Are you nervous? I'm a little nervous!"

"Hmm?"

Xia Duo turned his head sharply to look at Saijisi beside him, who was frowning slightly at this moment and seemed to be truly a bit nervous. "Did you receive any news? Demon Descendants or something else?"

"No, but it's precisely because there isn't any that makes people worry!"

Hearing this, Xia Duo could not help but frown, but then, as if he had thought of something, his brow relaxed, and a meaningful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Asuosi, what did you think of?"

"Nothing, I just think you might be overly sensitive. Today, besides the participants of the ritual, we have four other high-level Mages here. If necessary, I can also call Yisite over to help. If there really are troublemakers, we can handle them. Taking a step back, even if this ritual is messed up, there is still a next time, and once those troublemakers leave clues, they might not be able to organize the next action."

Xia Duo expressed great optimism about this. Of course, the reason he was optimistic, besides the reasons he told Saijisi, was also one other extremely important point—
