Chapter 384: Six Dimensions, Telafo

Passing through the Portal to the outside, Xia Duo and Aiboke cast 【Flight】 and flew toward the west, crossing the Wolfburg River, and landed on a boulder four or five meters long and half a person high by the side of the road.

The area around the stone was open, with nothing but the road and farmland, and few trees; Xia Duo was very satisfied with this place, for although he had full confidence, if he were to accidentally teleport into some solid object, that would not be what he wanted.

Glancing at Aiboke, who was already prepared, Xia Duo went straight to the point, "I'm starting!"

After saying this, his eyes no longer held Aiboke, but were focused on the Spell itself; he hoped to succeed on the first try. It was just like what he had done before in the Spell Laboratory—

The nearly one hundred basic elements of 【Short-range Teleportation】 were realized one by one by him, and the Magic Net Strings formed a complex, orderly structure around him, while outside this structure, the vibrations of the Magic Net Strings continued to spread.

Guide energy, determine position, determine target, Plane link, teleport!

Xia Duo only felt a blur before his eyes, and the scene he was in suddenly changed; he hurriedly turned to look behind him, and the boulder not far away was "standing" safely and soundly in its original place.

And on top of the boulder, Aiboke was watching him with a smile.

It really succeeded on the first try?!

Xia Duo carefully recalled the entire process of the Spellcasting; it was indeed performed exactly according to the casting details he had compiled from his Spellbook, without a single error!

Taking advantage of the fact that the 【Flight】 state still existed, Xia Duo flew back onto the boulder, suppressing the joy in his heart, and asked expectantly while looking at Aiboke, "Do I still have any shortcomings?"

"You did very well! I couldn't reach this level when I was at your stage. If I had to say there were any shortcomings—" Aiboke looked at Xia Duo somewhat strangely, "The positioning method you just used seems a bit complex?"

"It's like this—" Xia Duo explained, "I use myself as the origin, and the target position is deduced based on myself with reference to the Inner Plane; the advantage of doing this is that the precision is high enough."

This is actually the Principle of a coordinate system, except that in the world of Magic, besides using length, width, and height for positioning, one can also compare the positions of the Inner Plane; this is a reference system that simultaneously possesses six dimensions.

Of course, one could also just use an ordinary spatial coordinate system, but without the Inner Plane as a reference, one might teleport to other parallel Planes, such as the shadow of the Main Plane—the Shadow Plane.

The six-dimensional reference system was actually deduced by Xia Duo himself; the 4th-Ring 【Short-range Teleportation】 does not need to consider so much for the time being, but out of caution, he still chose a more complex but more precise positioning method.

Hearing Xia Duo's explanation, Aiboke did not know whether to be gratified or to smile bitterly, "Your positioning method is indeed a bit advanced. There is a book in the Library called 'Telafo Luxing Zhinan'; you can go take a look when you have time."

A travel guide? Xia Duo was a bit puzzled, but Aiboke was no longer willing to say more.

Afterwards, Xia Duo teleported two more times, and both results perfectly matched his expectations; of course, this was also inseparable from some of Aiboke's pointers.

It was just that for some reason, Aiboke's pointers to him were only about Spellcasting techniques, and he did not offer any opinions on the specific Spell Principles or element adjustments.

It seemed he was truly just ensuring that he could conduct the experiment safely.

However, that book named 'Telafo Luxing Zhinan' was kept in mind by Xia Duo; he prepared to borrow it to read as soon as he returned to the Tower of Time.

"Before we go back, I will take you for one 【Short-range Teleportation】; I hope you can gain something," Aiboke suddenly said.

Then he took out his Spellbook from his Dimensional Bag, let it float in front of him, and the pages on it turned automatically without wind, quickly flipping to one of the pages.

"Come closer!"

Xia Duo hurriedly moved closer; this was not his first time observing Aiboke cast a Teleportation Spell at close range. The previous time was because he had discovered Undead and, after reporting it, Aiboke had taken him to a village south of Savile Town via teleportation.

It was just that at that time, he was only an Apprentice; let alone such a high-end Spell as Teleportation, he hadn't even mastered many 0-Ring Spells.

And this time, perhaps there really would be a different gain.

Although Xia Duo knew that Aiboke doing this for him was largely because of Niya, he was still very grateful; after all, in this world, it wasn't as if one could just find any Arcanist willing to spend so much time and effort for him without wanting any benefits!

The entire process of Aiboke's Spellcasting was swift and smooth, and combined with a few short, obscure incantations and the Spellbook floating beside him, it looked much more impressive than Xia Duo's silent Spellcasting.

Of course, the appearance was not the point; what Xia Duo focused on was the similarities and differences between Aiboke's Spell and his own. As for the gap in Spellcasting time, that could be ignored for now.

As long as he optimized the Spell well later and practiced more, he would also be able to achieve rapid Spellcasting.

Upon closer inspection, Aiboke's 【Short-range Teleportation】 was very similar to his, and even the positioning method was the same; it seemed as if he were deliberately imitating him.

However, similarity did not mean being exactly the same; those subtle differences were perhaps what Aiboke truly wanted to teach him.

Of the nearly one hundred basic elements of 【Short-range Teleportation】, only a dozen or so were slightly adjusted; it seemed there was no difference from what he had done before.

The starting and target positions of the teleportation were the same.

The only difference was perhaps that when Xia Duo teleported before, it was just him alone, while now there were two people.

Xia Duo pondered for a moment and discovered the key; this was actually an improvement in teleportation efficiency.

The improvement in efficiency had little to do with distance, but rather that the teleportation space had become larger.

In other words, as long as one used Aiboke's method, even Xia Duo could take someone else along to teleport!

And that wasn't all; these element adjustments were actually individual research ideas, and to a certain extent, they contained the understanding of this Arcanist, Aiboke, regarding Spell Principles and even the essence of the Magic Net.

If one were to conduct in-depth research on this basis, perhaps one could develop a more "effort-saving," more convenient, and more efficient way of teleportation.

It was even possible to lower the threshold of the Teleportation Spell to the 3rd Ring.

"This—" Xia Duo's eyes were full of joy; this was simply giving him a "level-up" gift package!

Returning to the Tower of Time, Xia Duo went straight into the Library and, under the prompt of the Tower Spirit, found that 'Telafo Luxing Zhinan' in the Advanced Rank area.

Just as Xia Duo had expected, Telafo was indeed a person's name, but not an ancient one; rather, he was a "modern person."

This Telafo was very likely still alive now, and this book mainly talked about the various experiences of his travels.

Travelogues were not uncommon in the Library; many biographies of Mages could actually be read as travelogues, only with the protagonist's growth process interspersed throughout.

But this 'Telafo Luxing Zhinan' was indeed a pure travelogue; the reason it was classified in the Advanced Rank area was actually because the protagonist of this book most often used Teleportation Spells to travel, and the book contained a large amount of Spell details and Spellcasting techniques regarding Teleportation Spells.
