Chapter 1535 Fake action, harmony between man and nature
While retreating, Shado paid attention to the surrounding environment and looked for a suitable casting site, while also not forgetting to observe the situation on the Iolum side.
As he went on, Shado's perception of the battle area between Iolum and the elves became more and more blurred. From the beginning, his vision was obscured by various random spells mainly based on elemental impact, followed by other perceptions of the five senses.
Although the five senses are meaningless in this crazy magic network environment, there are too many random spells to interfere, and if you encounter illusions, you may be misled.
Only magical vision is relatively real, whether it is microscopic or macroscopic.
But until his perception of the magic network became blurry, Xia Duo knew that he could no longer retreat. If he retreated, he would not be able to guarantee the immediacy of the spell.
He searched around, and finally his eyes rested on a stone half a man tall and burning with raging fire, but this stone was not his target.
After removing the stone, he carefully checked the surrounding magic network environment, and then nodded with satisfaction. The ability to form a stable magic phenomenon meant that there was a relatively stable magic network node here.
Although Xia Duo can ignore the crazy magic network, if there is a better environment, it will be a good benefit for his subsequent spell casting.
After deploying the arcane fire, Xia Duo confirmed his conjecture from the feedback from the micro-magic network. It was indeed much more "effort-saving" here than other places.
Then, he transformed into a gas form and became invisible. Although this calm environment of the magic network looked very abrupt, there was still the disguise of illusion that followed.
In fact, if the arcane fire cannot be deployed when it is not [residing in the world], Xia Duo hopes to be able to reappear in the world and completely turn into nothingness. This can be considered as truly ignoring the damage.
Or, if the magic network environment here is better and can calm down on its own without the help of arcane fire, then Xia Duo can also try to cast spells in the state of inhabiting the world.
With everything ready, Xia Duo first deliberately created a little movement of the spell, and the movement became more and more, almost simulating part of the next spell-casting action.
He wanted to see if there were potential enemies waiting for him around him. Even though the chances were very small, he still had to be on guard against them.
As the saying goes, "Sail with caution". When casting spells, there is almost no resistance to the outside world, and even the perception will be greatly reduced (you must concentrate on casting spells). If you are not careful and encounter a situation, you will regret it.
Xia Duo has always believed in tightening first and then loosening, first bitter and then sweet, and this is no exception at such a critical moment.
…
After careful testing, Shado did not wait for the expected attack. Instead, the situation on Iolum's side became worse and worse. The elf tried to shape the myth lock more and more frequently.
This also made Xia Duo a little depressed. If the frequency was relatively stable, it would be much easier for him to calculate the starting time of casting.
But now, the faster frequency means that the calculation has become more complicated, and it even has a certain gambling quality, which makes Xia Duo instinctively feel uncomfortable.
The timing of the attack cannot be chosen at will. This spell requires a lot of concentration. Once he starts casting the spell, it is basically impossible for him to pay attention to what is happening on Iolum's side. There is only one goal in his eyes, and that is to complete the spell.
What he originally wanted to do was to calculate the time and complete the spell at the critical moment when the opponent's formation of the Mystery Lock was about to be completed, and launch the attack at the same time as Iolum.
This will greatly reduce the possibility of elves resisting or even counterattacking.
Now I have to take a small gamble!
Of course, from the moment Xia Duo decided to take action, the elf was almost certain to lose. The difference was only the difference between "89% sure" and "99% sure".
Try to overestimate your opponents, not yourself.
Sha Duo silently recited a warning motto in his heart, and then entered a state of highly concentrated spell casting. However, he had not yet started casting spells. Instead, he quickly calculated the best starting time in his mind based on the battle situation between Iolum and the elves.
.
"This is it! Bless us!"
In the blink of an eye, Xia Duo began to create an 11-level spell that he had never actually cast before. Starting from the surface of the magic network, the strings of the magic network continued to combine under his will until they penetrated deep into the magic network.
The tenth floor.
This is already the end of the magic network in the conventional sense. Perhaps it is also the end of magic in the eyes of many people, but in Xia Duo's eyes, this is just a new beginning.
A cycle from 0 to 10 almost transforms into an 11-ring element that does not actually exist. If it is below 10 rings, these element units equivalent to a higher level will have a tendency to automatically transform to higher levels. This
This makes it relatively effortless for the caster to maintain it.
As for Xia Duo, now, all the 11th ring elements that do not actually exist need to be maintained by himself, and cannot borrow the power of the magic network. This is true even if he is using his own miniature magic network to cast spells.
Perhaps this is the natural flaw of the Magic Network itself.
If there is a powerful person who can open up a new level for the magic network, then for all spellcasters, it will be almost as much as a "world-opening" feat.
Xia Duo has considered this possibility, but the magic network is not just a magic network in the main plane. Even the goddess of magic may not be able to achieve this kind of transformation.
Not to mention himself, he has never thought about it, especially when transforming the magic network is not in line with his interests.
…
As the spell casting gradually came closer to completion, it became increasingly difficult for Sha Duo to maintain such a large and complex spell element in such a highly concentrated state, and distracting thoughts emerged almost uncontrollably.
He subconsciously thought that if it had been before the recent awakening of his bloodline, if he had not transformed into a gas form to isolate his human desires, he might not have been able to maintain the current progress of casting spells.
Or, considering that it is so difficult to cast a spell, it is better to stop and wait for support from the Seven Towers, etc.
But if there are distracting thoughts, there is naturally also righteousness. Xia Duo's daily meditation training is not in vain. Even if distracting thoughts gradually arise, he does not interrupt the process of casting spells.
On the contrary, in the process of such a battle between distracting thoughts and righteous thoughts, his consciousness moved towards a higher level of detachment, which he had never expected before.
This feeling is a bit like "residing in the world", "the heart is condensed and the body is released, and the universe is in harmony", "doing nothing but doing everything". At this moment, Xia Duo suddenly found that he could cast spells and at the same time, he could also think wildly.
Of course, in this situation, random thinking is not the right approach. Shado just used this to control distracting thoughts, and at the same time, he still had the ability to sense his surroundings, and even the battle situation between Iolum and the elves.
This change made Xia Duo's original advance calculation somewhat redundant, because in this situation where he could cast spells with ease, he could slightly adjust the casting time to actively match the best attack time.
But can this state appear again in the future? If it can be mastered skillfully, perhaps the 12th level spell will no longer be a dream that can only remain in theory.
