Chapter 638 Mysterious Concrete Object
Angel was walking in a lush mountain forest. He seemed to be comprehending something and looking for something.
Mountain mist brushed over the treetops, causing a rustling sound as the leaves swayed.
Angel stopped and listened to the wind. Suddenly, a familiar feeling flashed from his cheek, and he opened his eyes suddenly: "Found it."
Angel followed the wind, jumped up, stepped on it several times, and finally landed on the branches of a tall, umbrella-like dragon's blood tree.
Weaving through the branches and leaves, he soon came to the center of the tree cover.
It is so dark here that you can only see it with the faint light. At the intersection of the branches, there is a brown bird's nest. In the bird's nest, a little bird with bright yellow feathers was curled up in the bird's nest.
It can be seen from the rhythmic expansion of its chest that the little bird is sleeping.
"Finally found you..." He stretched out his hand and reached into the bird's nest, trying to catch the little bird. But at this moment, the sleeping bird was startled. It screamed in fright, flapped its wings and flew out of the nest.
For the next two minutes, Angel was caught up in the chase.
Fortunately, this mountain forest is not real, it is just an illusion he constructed. The little bird relies on this illusion, so it can never escape.
Finally, not long after, Angel caught the little bird.
When he touched its feathers, with a slight exertion, the little bird turned into a shadow, and then with the little bird as the center, a large amount of mysterious power poured out.
Angel wandered in the ocean created by the mysterious power for less than half a minute before it dissipated.
This mountain and forest fantasyland was completely reduced to an ordinary fantasyland after the mysterious power disappeared.
"This time there are 27 seconds." Angel recorded this data, and then sighed slightly. Obviously this was an illusion created by himself, but he actually wanted to find the "mysterious concrete object" himself, and he even found it. Most of the day.
There's nothing you can do about it, the mystery itself has an "unknown" quality.
Even if Angel's fantasy only incorporates a sense of "mystery" through his talent, which is not really "mysterious", as long as it is named "mysterious", it must have characteristics that match it.
Otherwise, all the premises are invalid.
It's like Pandora's box or Schrödinger's cat. You never know what's inside until you open it.
Therefore, even if it is an illusion he constructed himself, he must look for this "mysterious concrete object" that is independent of the illusion. Otherwise, if he had grasped the traces of this "little bird" from the beginning, would this still be consistent with the mysterious "unknown" characteristics?
Of course, there is also a situation where he can grasp the whereabouts of the mystery from the beginning, that is, he himself knows the mystery extremely well, or he has become a mysterious alchemist and has come into contact with the mysterious field. Then, no matter how unknown the mystery is, it is just a thin gauze curtain lowered in front of his eyes.
A week passed.
During this period, Angel constructed nearly a hundred illusions, large and small, and saw many "mysterious objects". Dalmatians and small sparrows are just a few examples, and there are even mysterious human-shaped objects. In addition, there are some inanimate objects, such as stones, boxes, books, swings, wooden houses, etc., and even pure elemental objects, such as a wisp of wind, a puddle, a fire... …
However, these are actually not difficult to find.
Angel once constructed a snowfield illusion. As a result, he searched for a whole day but could not find the "mysterious concrete object".
If he made a mistake, it would be fine if he didn't have a mysterious object. But he could clearly feel a trace of "mysterious power" leaking out, but he just couldn't find it.
After being stubborn for a long time, in order not to waste time, he gave up the search.
During these nearly a hundred experiments, Angel collected a lot of data, and he had a rough estimate of how long the "mysterious power" lasted in the fantasy realm.
The more rigorous the logic of the illusion, the higher the level of the illusion, and when the 'mysterious concrete object' is found, the mysterious power released will last longer.
Among them, the basic illusion maintains the mysterious power for the shortest time, probably around 5-10 seconds.
The illusion with the nightmare effect can maintain the mysterious power for the longest time, which can reach one minute.
Although one minute is short, in this minute surrounded by mysterious power, as long as you carefully understand it, there will be countless streams of data and information hitting your thinking. These streams of information contain a lot of "mysterious" content. , and the "mystery" itself is all-encompassing, contradictory, and harmonious... Through these information flows, you can even understand many things by analogy.
However, "enlightenment" is just Angel's own speculation. He speculated that the prerequisite for enlightenment is that you must have enough knowledge. But whether this is the case specifically, Angel himself doesn’t know.
Because Angel was wandering in the mysterious power and had no sense of enlightenment. He is just like a sponge, absorbing a large amount of the so-called "mysterious" meaning in order to one day reach the mysterious realm.
In fact, what Angel wants most is to create a "mysterious concrete object" that will not disappear and can last forever. But with his ability, one minute is already overwhelming.
If one day a "permanent mysterious illusion" is really created, Angel estimates that this can be regarded as a real "mysterious thing", right?
…
Angel has roughly completed the test of integrating the sense of mystery into the illusion.
The next experiment he will do is: Can the sense of mystery be combined with alchemy?
He took out a piece of Qingji wood from his bracelet, which has strong characteristics and is relatively transparent to energy tolerance; this is also a relatively common non-level magic material.
Angel is already familiar with the techniques of alchemy. In a few seconds, a small garden with micro-carving appeared in his palm.
At the same time, he also integrated the basic illusion with a sense of mystery into this small garden with micro-carving. There are only two illusion nodes in total, and the nodes are still stable at present.
But whether the sense of mystery is successfully integrated requires further testing.
Because it was just a casual work, he did not set any power source when refining it, and it needs to actively input energy to stimulate it.
Angel injected a pure magic power into this small wooden garden.
In an instant, the trial field turned into a garden with various flowers competing for beauty. Walking in the garden, petals are flying all over the sky, and the fragrance fills the whole body...
Angel walked around this garden that had nothing but flowers at a glance, and he didn't find the "mysterious concrete object". However, he felt a mysterious feeling lingering around him from time to time, but he couldn't find it.
Angel wondered, could it be that he encountered a situation similar to the "Snowfield Fantasy" again?
Just when Angel was about to give up the search, he suddenly remembered something. Here, hundreds of flowers are blooming, and the fragrance of flowers is too strong. Maybe the "mysterious concrete object" hides itself through this confusing means?
Thinking of this, Angel decided to block these fragrances.
As he made this decision, the rich fragrance of flowers around him disappeared in an instant. Angel continued to walk around the small garden, and when he walked to a corner, he suddenly stopped.
A faint sweet fragrance came to his nose.
When he smelled this fragrance, his eyes suddenly lit up.
The flower fragrance in the illusion was actually created by Angel through deceiving his sense of smell. In fact, this fragrance was just an illusion. But he had clearly blocked the flower fragrance, but at this time, there was still fragrance lingering at the tip of his nose. Obviously, this was something outside the illusion of the small garden he had created.
Something beyond the illusion of the small garden must be a mysterious concrete object!
I just don’t know if the mysterious concrete object this time is this lingering fragrant wind or the flower at the source of the fragrant wind?
In the end, Angel found an inconspicuous little white flower in the grass under the col. This little white flower is the source of the fragrance.
When Angel touched the flower with his fingers, it gradually swayed, and the fragrance and mysterious power released doubled than before.
With a little effort, the little white flower was crushed into pieces by him. At the same time, a large amount of mysterious power gushed out.
The mysterious power lasted for about 15 seconds and then disappeared.
After the mysterious power disappeared, Angel broke away from the illusion.
According to this experiment, the illusion with a sense of mystery can be attached to alchemical materials. However, the duration is still very short, but overall, it is longer than when Angel directly releases the illusion.
For example, this small garden illusion is a very basic illusion that does not require too much logical construction.
Angel initially estimated that the mysterious power could only be maintained for about 5-10 seconds, but in the end it lasted for more than 15 seconds, which was far higher than his expectations.
Angel estimated that the transparent conductivity of Qingji Wood to energy has improved this illusion a little?
Since there are doubts, why not continue the experiment.
In the next few days, he experimented with nearly 50 kinds of magic materials in 14 categories.
These magic materials are representative and non-ranked magic materials.
After Angel's experiment, as long as the magic material has a positive reaction to energy, it can increase the maintenance time of the mysterious power. However, the magic material that has an effect on energy radiation can maximize the maintenance time of the mysterious power, which can be increased by about twice the time.
After determining the types of magic materials, you can choose the corresponding materials in a targeted manner during the formal alchemy.
After a few days of closed-door experiments, Angel was surrounded by various exquisite small objects that were refined. For example, miniature gardens, monster sculptures, flower and bird ornaments... and so on.
These are basically low-end alchemy products, but if they are really sold, each can also be sold for dozens of magic crystals.
But now that Angel is rich and powerful, he has no intention of buying and selling. He directly leaves these things in the trial field and walks towards the alchemy laboratory.
The basic test before refining is enough, and the next step is practice.
