Chapter 169: Recording into the Magic Net

"Wait—maybe I can use a spell to protect the metal from melting?" Naimi Xisi's eyes lit up.

He immediately took out a nearby notebook and modified the spell model he had designed.

"Hmm, based on an Evocation spell, add Abjuration runes for immunity and isolation. No, we can't add the isolation rune; it would cause the electric current's energy to fail to convert into kinetic energy."

Naimi Xisi immersed himself in the world of creating spell models, delighted, and after more than ten hours he suddenly snapped out of it.

"Finished. Let's test it."

Naimi Xisi looked at the spell model on his notes, which was many times more complex than the previous version, and sighed; after his revision, the spell was still a six‑ring spell, but the chanting syllables were greatly lengthened, reaching the level of a seven‑ring spell.

Fortunately, the convenience of dragon language to accelerate chanting was still acceptable to him.

He crushed another azure magical gem, etched the powder into a spell model, then produced a new metal projectile that floated in the void.

As the incantation ended, the powder ignited into blue flame, and massive magical energy formed an extremely dazzling electric light sphere around the metal projectile.

The terrifying electric current hissed, but strangely the metal projectile showed no sign of melting.

Seeing this, Naimi Xisi nodded in satisfaction, confirming that his effort to turn the spell into a composite spell was not in vain; part of the magical energy was transformed by the Abjuration runes to resist the heat generated by lightning.

The metal projectile spun swiftly through the air, then after a burst of intense white light, shot straight upward, leaving a red light column in its wake at extreme speed.

"Boom!!"

At the cave's ceiling, a violent roar rang out; under the terrifying speed, the metal projectile pierced the upper rock wall like an indestructible sword, and the intense heat from friction with the air burned a one‑meter‑wide passage connecting to the outside.

And that metal projectile had long since vanished, its destination unknown.

"Hmm, the power is decent." Naimi Xisi nodded in satisfaction.

In his design, the spell's range also depends on the material of the metal projectile.

During flight, the intense heat from friction with the air continuously melts and erodes its body; if the material is hard enough, it may fall to the ground after the electromagnetic kinetic energy dissipates, but if not, it may dissipate in the air halfway.

This is a drawback Naimi Xisi must face; because the spell's power was amplified twentyfold, the electromagnetic cannon's launch speed is many times faster than imagined, imposing even greater unavoidable stress on the metal projectile.

In Naimi Xisi's calculations, at a distance of up to 50 meters, a metal sphere of 5 cm radius would melt outright.

Unless the sphere's volume is increased or a sturdier material is used, the range will not change.

Nevertheless, within that range, the crimson light blade will be Naimi Xisi's most practical single‑target strike.

Even dissociation techniques cannot compare; after all, the noble physical damage of the electromagnetic cannon is destined not to be countered by immunity‑type spells, forcing enemies to rely on massive shields and their own hard defenses.

With the boost of a power gem, Naimi Xisi believes that enemies below Legendary rank should have no way to hard‑resist this shot.

After the experimental spell succeeded, Juan Ce Long immediately intended to upload the spell model to the Magic Net. "Let's name this spell — 【Naimi Xisi's Electromagnetic Projectile】."

Magical energy traced the spell model's pattern in the air; the Magic Net sensed the Spellcaster's Summoning, and countless blue Magic Net strands materialized from the air, entwining the spell model, devouring it, and vanishing into the void. The spell was formally recorded into the Magic Net.

From then on, Sorcerers across the Multiverse will have a chance to obtain this spell when naturally awakened Evocation spells occur, and Mages can, after learning it, enhance it using super‑magic methods.

This is why Spellcasters exist throughout the Multiverse: with the ubiquitous Magic Net's aid, every Spellcaster can contribute knowledge, adding bricks and tiles to the entire Spellcaster civilization.

Of course, the premise is voluntary.

In fact, many unique spells are never entered into the Magic Net; whenever they use such spells, they follow ancient casting methods, carving a physical spell model with a magical gem and invoking magical energy from the Magic Net for charging.

It is said that most Legendary spells are released this way, because those Spellcasters perched at the pinnacle of the Multiverse do not readily make their hard‑won Legendary spells public.

For Naimi Xisi, he doesn't mind, since even if others learn the same spell, they cannot reach his level.

Without a power gem, the same spell in his hands versus others' hands is a completely different spell.

Recording spells into the Magic Net has benefits; super‑magic methods are casting techniques that Mages specifically develop for the Magic Net, and the original casting methods cannot harness super‑magic to enhance spells.

!

Beyond that, creating new spells is also one of the main ways to build a Mage's worldview, naturally allowing rapid advancement of a Mage's professional rank.

For example, now that Naimi Xisi has just uploaded 【Naimi Xisi's Electromagnetic Projectile】, a six‑ring spell, he feels his 12th‑level Spellguard profession has made great progress, edging toward promotion.

On the Feren Continent, the known high‑level terrifying Legendary mages have each created dozens to hundreds of brand‑new spells; if Naimi Xisi wants to quickly raise his professional rank, creating new spells and recording them into the Magic Net is an inevitable choice.

Naimi Xisi again produced a metal projectile; this time, without the elaborate modeling steps, he simply chanted the incantation rapidly, and Spiritual Power etched the spell model in the void.

Quickly, as the incantation ended, a dazzling white light reappeared, and a crimson energy beam sliced through the air, leaving a second hole in the rock wall.

Naimi Xisi stretched lazily, left the cave, and noted that he had spent a week inside the cave, researching this new spell day and night.

In fact, it was also thanks to Juan Ce Long's proud magical talent and Naimi Xisi's clear plan before research began; otherwise the spell's birth could have taken months, even years.

"How's the progress?" Naimi Xisi called Wa Luo Sang and asked.

"The foundation is complete, Master." Wa Luo Sang replied respectfully.

Naimi Xisi looked toward the canyon's center, where a massive 25,000‑square‑meter square foundation had been completed.

This will be the first pyramid‑shaped Mage Tower in Frelen's history.
