Chapter 2388: Instructor Tuto's Research Direction
————I have diarrhea, I'll probably be about half an hour late~~
————
About three days later, while Xia Duo's Class 4 was still buried in the Library searching for information, a piece of good news came from Instructor Tuto—
A class in the 1493 cohort of the Myth Lock Design major had agreed to let Xia Duo and his classmates observe their training process on-site.
The cohort at Chixin University is calculated based on the time of entry into the professional stage; the 1493 cohort refers to those who entered the professional stage in the year 1493 of the Chixin Calendar, which is the eleventh year of university.
Xia Duo's Class 4 belongs to the 1503 cohort, exactly ten years apart, but the gap between the two sides could be described as heaven and earth; one side had just begun to systematically study Mythallars, while the other had already completed their professional courses.
In ancient times, it would be like one side just starting to learn the ropes, while the other had already finished their apprenticeship.
Upon receiving this news, Xia Duo and the other 24 students in his class immediately put down the books in their hands and went to a classroom in a different teaching building, or rather, a truly well-equipped practice base for senior students.
Just after entering the classroom door, Xia Duo was shocked by the scene before him; the Magic Net environment of the entire space had been almost completely reconstructed, and even with his Arcane Fire, he could feel a clear Suppression.
This was completely different from the mainstream Mythallar style in the outside world, where the mainstream style is based on "Nature," which is to say, it tries to appear as much like the natural Magic Net environment as possible.
But here, it was the exact opposite, directly transforming the natural Magic Net environment beyond recognition; in the past, Xia Duo had always believed that only "Nature" could possess a better technical level.
Although he still does not change this view now, his attitude has changed slightly; in the past, he was too obsessed with the technology itself, and if one insists on simulating Nature, it inevitably carries the suspicion of showing off.
He knows that when any technology develops to a certain level, the final result is to transform Nature and utilize Nature, making it adapt to the main body of civilization.
Building a Mythallar does not change the essence of the Magic Net; it only changes the manifestation of the Magic Net, but such a form is highly likely to be more suitable for the transformer's use—after all, if the purpose of the transformation is not to show off, then it is mostly for practical use.
Now, suddenly seeing this highly orderly, not-at-all-natural new type of Mythallar, Xia Duo suddenly had a premonition that this kind of Mythallar might become the mainstream in the future.
But one thing to note is that if the faction one belongs to is not powerful enough to transform the Magic Net environment of the entire Plane at once, the maintenance cost of this kind of Mythallar is actually higher than that of a "Natural" Mythallar.
However, with the current level of Magic development in the Red Heart Alliance, maintenance cost is no longer a decisive factor; on the contrary, being "highly suitable for oneself" is more important.
……
Just as Xia Duo was pondering, his classmates in Class 4 were already looking around and letting out bursts of exclamation, while Instructor Tuto and another instructor watched this group of energetic young students with smiles.
As for the seniors of the 1493 cohort, they were not affected by the arrival of these juniors and continued to train diligently on one side of the practice base.
It was not until that instructor called for a halt that they temporarily stopped, and this call also woke up the students of Class 4 who were obsessively observing.
At this time, Instructor Tuto also began to summon the students, "Come over here, Instructor Antike is going to give you some pointers on important matters and techniques to pay attention to while observing."
Upon hearing this, Xia Duo hurriedly ran over obediently; having watched for a while, he could see that the Mythallar here had been specially compiled and possessed highly orderly characteristics, but because of this, it was actually difficult for him to see through its details.
Of course, if someone is willing to explain it, understanding this kind of Mythallar is actually simpler than a "Natural Mythallar," as a "Natural Mythallar" is equivalent to having an extra layer of camouflage to make it consistent with the natural Magic Net.
And this layer of camouflage can be a shortcut for an attacker who is proficient in Natural Mythallar design, while for a defender, it can also be said to be a sharp weapon for defense.
Most Mythallar attacks and defenses occur at the level of the "camouflage of the Natural Mythallar."
Then, how do attacks and defenses occur for a "Native Mythallar" relative to a "Natural Mythallar"?
In a trance, Xia Duo's thoughts seemed to have gone astray; he seemed to have figured out why the class led by Instructor Antike was willing to let them observe—there might be personal friendship between the instructors, but more importantly, it might be—
This class of Antike had developed extremely strong self-confidence because of their in-depth research on Native Mythallars without camouflage!
They were confident that they would not be affected by the observation of students led by Instructor Tuto, and confident that regardless of whether the news leaked out, they would still have the confidence to qualify for the finals, or even take first place.
And just at this moment, Instructor Antike began to introduce the key points of observation; the first thing introduced was the open interface of the Native Mythallar, which has link rules that differ significantly from those of the Natural Mythallar.
Generally speaking, because the Natural Mythallar is systematized, it only needs to use a limited number of interfaces to obtain most of the Permission Level through the Mythallar itself.
As for the Native Mythallar, different Permission Levels correspond to different interfaces; it is not that one cannot obtain all Permission Levels through the same interface, but Xia Duo speculated that this might be for security, or perhaps this is just a characteristic of the Native Mythallar.
Currently, Xia Duo does not have much research on Native Mythallars, but based on his understanding of Natural Mythallars, the systematization of Natural Mythallars is largely formed because of that layer of natural camouflage.
Therefore, different Permission Levels corresponding to different interfaces might just be a characteristic of the Native Mythallar.
And this also means that this kind of Mythallar has the possibility of being highly customized, but because it is too customized, it also has the possibility of being discrete and fragmented.
Of course, with in-depth research, one might also discover a new system; by then, the Native Mythallar would no longer be a new type of Mythallar distinguished from the Natural Mythallar by style, but a new type with significant essential differences, similar to Modern Mythallar and Traditional Mythallar.
But regardless, as far as the current situation is concerned, the security of the Native Mythallar seems to be indeed higher than that of the Natural Mythallar.
For an individual, building such a Mythallar in a private domain seems more suitable, while for a unified collective, it is still more appropriate to use a Natural Mythallar before a unified system is formed.
……
The Native Mythallar linking techniques taught by Instructor Antike were very useful; perhaps because the other party really had a good relationship with Instructor Tuto, they actually provided Permission Level for near-global Perception.
Xia Duo expressed that he benefited greatly and almost immediately tried to further understand more details about the Native Mythallar here; Instructor Antike did not stop him, and there was even a faint sense of welcoming the observation.
At first, Xia Duo couldn't figure it out, but then he realized that this was not the Main Plane, but the Red Heart Alliance where everyone was of one mind.
Between different classes, there might be a desire to win, but sectarianism generally does not exist; the Native Mythallar is currently still a niche, and if it can attract more researchers, it is extremely beneficial for the researchers in this field themselves.
