Chapter 911: Inherent Ascending Ring Characteristics of the Magic Net, Important Reference

~8 min read 1,405 words

Of course, the premise for all of this is that the Natural Will truly and actively corrects and compensates for the believer's cognition, and that it must be Reality!

If it cannot correct or compensate, or if the information provided is false, then it doesn't have much significance.

Next, Xia Duo stopped comparing the differences between the two consecutive Nature Responses and instead began to analyze the newly appeared macroscopic, comprehensive perception information regarding the entire Magic Net system, and verified its truth.

This kind of macroscopic and comprehensive perception information regarding the entire Magic Net system is not easy to analyze; after all, a Spellcaster can only perceive it when coming into contact with the deeper Magic Net, and usually cannot see it at all.

It is only because Xia Duo can trace his memories and Huanyuan the most authentic version of his self-perception that he can judge its truth; otherwise, even if he knew the Nature Response would provide Magic Net information, it would be difficult to judge whether it was true or false.

Of course, even with a relatively authentic version of self-perception, it is still necessary to design a fairly complex experiment to conduct verification.

As for experiments involving the external macroscopic Magic Net system, the only thing Xia Duo could think of for the time being was the Ascending Ring experiment, and it was an indirect verification at that.

The Ascending Ring of a Spell is essentially the utilization of the internal transformation of Magic Net Strings at different levels within the macroscopic Magic Net system—this characteristic of the external, real Magic Net.

If the Magic Net in the Nature Response also possesses such characteristics, it can, to a certain extent, also indicate the authenticity of the Magic Net information from the Nature Response.

Of course, this is not absolute; perhaps it is just a coincidence, but conducting a rough judgment is still possible.

Thus, the 【Mage Armor】 that Xia Duo is most familiar with made another appearance; Xia Duo has raised this spell from the 1st Circle all the way to the 7th Circle, so he knows the relevant details extremely well.

Substituting all the elements of the equivalent 2nd Circle 【Mage Armor】—which manifests in a 1st Circle form—into the Magic Net system within the Nature Response; this process does not require actual Spellcasting, as it can be completed entirely on paper.

The substitution result finally manifested as a Magic Net String combination completely identical to an external, normal 2nd Circle 【Mage Armor】, without any errors such as heterostructure or deformation occurring.

In other words, the Magic Net referred to by the Magic Net information in the Nature Response also possesses an inherent Ascending Ring characteristic.

Or rather, the Magic Net information in the Nature Response possesses a considerable degree of authenticity.

This discovery made Xia Duo extremely delighted, because this meant that even if this phenomenon does not possess universality, he could still use Yatewude to obtain more Magic Net information in a macroscopic direction!

Even if it only has partial authenticity, as long as one carefully distinguishes it, it is still better than having nothing at all!

Since he could not think of a more direct verification method, Xia Duo could only repeatedly conduct indirect verifications, which meant substituting the Ascending Ring process into the Magic Net information of the Nature Response to see if there were any errors.

This process was carried out in his mind and was purely a calculation problem; since it saved the time wasted on writing, it was completed almost in an instant.

"There isn't a single error!" Xia Duo couldn't help but exclaim, while a look of surprise and delight also appeared on his face.

Although such a verification process cannot truly prove the absolute correctness of the Magic Net information in the Nature Response, having so many successful cases at least indicates that its scope of application is very broad.

To a certain extent, it can be treated as real and correct!

The various theorems and laws on Earth before he crossed over were not absolute truths applicable everywhere either; they all had scopes of application, as long as it didn't affect normal Application.

As for when it would affect them, that depends on the future development of Magic; if that day truly comes, Xia Duo would only be even happier, as that would mean Magic has developed once again!

……

Next, Xia Duo continued to delve into the Magic Net information in the Nature Response, but gradually, he discovered something was wrong.

After repeated calculations, deductions, and verification, Xia Duo discovered that the Magic Net referred to by this information did not exceed the Magic Net depth expressed in the book "Principles".

That is to say, the Nature Response was very likely just integrating the book "Principles" and Yatewude's own partial cognition of the Magic Net, making it more holistic, without much substantial new content.

This discovery made Xia Duo feel somewhat disappointed, while at the same time, it also made him secretly heave a sigh of relief.

If one could truly steal Magic Net information without limit through such means, then this information would be obtained too easily, and this truly makes one feel uneasy!

This is probably the instinct of human nature!

If it is something obtained through one's own efforts, even if it is eventually proven to be a trap, one would still feel very at ease beforehand.

But if one obtains some kind of benefit for no reason, no matter how confident one is, one will still feel uneasy.

Now, although he knew that the Nature Response does not obtain Magic Net information without limit, this actually made Xia Duo feel more at ease.

Moreover, this so-called Nature Response, even if it is only an integration and refinement of known information, is not without its uses; on the contrary, this overall framework-like cognition gathered from limited information has even more guiding significance.

Although he couldn't take a shortcut, it still serves as a very important source of reference information!

With this realization, Xia Duo's mindset became much more leveled, and he was no longer in a rush to reach some specific conclusion regarding the Magic Net information of the Nature Response.

Since it is used as a reference anyway, he didn't even care much about its ultimate authenticity.

Of course, the premise for all of this is—that he has indeed already possessed it; if he hadn't possessed it yet or couldn't possess it, he might have been a bit sour about it.

This is also human nature.

……

In the following few days, Xia Duo did not ask Yatewude to share his perception again, but their Magic exchanges were maintained; he really wanted to see what kind of expression an Elf would have when seeing a Druid who knows Magic.

Of course, a little bit of dark humor was not enough to make him specifically set aside time to guide Yatewude in learning Magic; his real goal was, of course, his little vision and philosophy regarding universal Magic education.

However, after confirming that the Nature Response could integrate a believer's Magic Net cognition and provide a certain degree of overall framework-like correction and compensation, Xia Duo had high expectations for Natural Druids learning Magic.

He looked forward to being able to obtain Magic Net information from the Natural Will through countless followers of the New Natural Philosophy, and then performing a secondary integration to obtain more comprehensive Magic Net information.

This truly is exploring the world by gathering the strength of the masses.

……

This day, Xia Duo was preparing to go out for a stroll when he suddenly received a Sending from Niya—"Come back quickly! Someone from Seventon has arrived! Archmage Greta is leading the team personally!"

Niya's speaking speed was very fast and carried a hint of anxiety; Xia Duo almost didn't hear it clearly, but given his outstanding memory, he reacted almost instantly.

Niya had received the request from Seventon to apply for the Access Key to the Tower of Time's communication Magic Array, so she gave him a heads-up in advance.

And as long as there was no intentional delay, the time from requesting the Access Key to the completion of the teleportation is very short; hearing that the person leading the team was Archmage Greta, Xia Duo didn't hesitate at all and immediately teleported back to the Tower of Time.
