Judgment Department Survival Base, Research Institute.
Elise sent Shado to the institute and left. Afterwards, the person who took over Shado's entry procedures was an assistant researcher named "Rhodes", who was of course also a high-level mage.
After completing the entry procedures, Rhodes took Sha Duo to get some necessary supplies, and finally arranged a place for Sha Duo to live. Before leaving, he also reminded:
"Three days later, Vice President Samuel will review your improvement plan. If you can satisfy him, your rank will be designated as a level 1 researcher and you will have your own independent research laboratory."
Ross's words revealed an emotion of envy. Shado did not get carried away because of this. He sent Ross away with good words, and then returned to the room and opened the mission book he had just received.
"Positioning technology based on the background fluctuation of the Magic Network is widely used in the fields of communication and transmission?"
The task book is very informative. In addition to specific details about this positioning technology, it also provides a variety of application scenario examples for Xia Duo's reference.
In terms of advancement, this technology has actually surpassed the application of communication spells and teleportation spells that "McCard" had previously mastered.
Xia Duo read the task book back and forth no less than three times. Combined with his previous understanding of the background communication of the magic network, this technology no longer had any difficulty for him.
The so-called "positioning based on the background fluctuation of the Magic Network" is actually not a unilateral active positioning, but an immediate positioning that requires the target's response.
When one party sends a signal, if the target does not respond, the message or transmission is similar to a probability cloud state spreading everywhere. Only when the target responds, the message or transmission consumption will be instantly transformed into a specific event.
Before the target responds, it is possible for almost anyone to crack and access such a signal, and access transmission or messaging at the same time.
But when the target responds, people other than the target will lose most of their chances of cracking.
As long as both parties agree on the key in advance, the security of transmission or communication will be greatly improved, and the most important thing is——
Since this technology essentially locates a key with certain characteristics, it does not reveal the actual geographical coordinates of the transmission or communication target.
This plays a vital role in hiding the various bases of the imperial remnants.
In line with this, "McArdle" has almost no concept of positioning technology that points to actual geographical coordinates such as six-dimensional coordinates, let alone the concept of detecting the actual coordinates of a certain place.
This is definitely an artificial erasure of traces of related spells and technologies.
Xia Duo experienced the period of the Arcane Empire. At that time, there was no positioning technology based on the background fluctuations of the Magic Network. It may have existed, but it had not become mainstream, or it was beyond his reach at the time.
…
“How can this be improved?”
After reading the mission statement, Sha Duo almost immediately thought of the communication management spell developed by Giles Tower in the main plane.
This spell was published in the monthly magazine of the Arcane Law Association along with the [Magic Network Background Communication]. Its function is similar to the response interface of a mobile phone. You can choose to answer or reject.
Of course, even if you choose to answer, you will only receive spell information such as voice or video, not real-time communication like a phone call.
Without this spell, the Magic Network background communication can be used as harassing text messages.
As long as the positioning of the message is not based on the key, but only based on simple constraints, or even no constraints on the acceptance conditions, this is truly a "space broadcast".
Ordinary people, even mages who have not mastered the magic of rejecting background communication from the Magic Network, may be drowned in endless spam text messages.
Giles Tower may have foreseen such a scenario and attached a communication management spell with the communication spell.
Now, what Xia Duo thought of was not to use this spell to block spam text messages. After all, most of the empire survivors used key location, which can be understood as real-name authentication, and there were not many spam text messages.
However, since both messaging and transmission require the target to respond, this will waste a lot of time on the part of the responder in practice.
…
Take the Elise branch as an example. Elise serves as the branch director, a senior arcanist, and also needs to serve as a teleportation mage.
Otherwise, those who are out in the field will not be able to contact the base when they get outside, nor can they be teleported back, and they will really become savages.
That is to say, the Elise branch was established not long ago. There are only two task groups in total. Like other branches, there will be full-time teleportation mages.
Including this time, when Shado and Elise returned to the survival base at the Judgment Division headquarters, they were also guided by a teleportation mage.
Otherwise, even a senior arcanist like Elise may not be able to return to the headquarters.
There is no doubt that teleportation mages are a huge waste of important manpower. They stay in the teleportation room day after day, waiting for the transmission signal, and can't do anything.
Otherwise, if important information or critical transmission timing is delayed, you will inevitably be punished.
If [Transmission Management Spell] similar to the Communication Management Spell is introduced, allowing the Teleportation Mage to automatically respond to transmissions and communication signals, then as long as he is at the base and in the teleportation room, his normal activities will not be delayed.
Just remember to keep [Management Spell] with you at all times.
…
In addition to [Teleportation, Communication Management Spells], another improvement point that Xia Duo can think of in a short time is the communication mystery lock, or even the teleportation mystery lock.
The latter is actually what Niya is researching. Starting from the background fluctuations of the Magic Network, combined with the myth lock information provided by Sha Duo, she wants to develop a communication mystery lock that has a wide coverage and can be used by everyone.
If you add the teleportation function, it will be like all kinds of magic weapons descending from the sky.
It's just that this kind of improvement is not something that a newbie like "McCard" who is not even an arcanist can make when he first enters the institute.
Even Xia Duo can't do anything for the time being. Niya has been studying for such a long time to make a small progress. He wants to come up with a plan within three days, which is simply unrealistic.
However, related ideas are still put forward, which can more or less improve the evaluation of "McArdle".
…
Three days flew by in the blink of an eye.
At noon, just after Sha Duo had lunch, Rhodes came to the door, "Master McArdle, are you ready? Vice President Samuel will meet you in Laboratory No. 003 on the second floor!"
"knew."
Xia Duo responded and brought the prepared "Several Application Scenarios of [Transmission and Communication Management Spells] in the Field of Transmission and Communication" and "Some Ideas on Establishing [Transmission and Communication Mystery Lock]", together with Ross
go out.
…
As far as Xia Duo now knows, the base of the Revenge Trial Division headquarters has four floors in total, with a large number of civilians living on the bottom floor, including college students, young children, etc.
McCard lived there before he became a high-level mage. From the ground floor up, there is the institute, which is the entire floor.
Before today, Xia Duo thought that the institute only had one floor, but he didn't expect that there was also a negative two floor, which of course was the level where the higher-ups were located.
As for the last layer he knew, it was the transit layer, where all external transmissions or transmissions to the outside world must be carried out.
Under normal circumstances, the vast majority of people in this base will never come into contact with it in their lifetime.
