Of course there is progress, and it's not too slow. It's just that there is only one high-level mage named Depak here, and the manpower is really too tight.
However, Depak is still a traditional mage who does not use spells unless necessary. It is understandable that this progress is far behind Sha Duo's expectations.
Although he felt depressed, Xia Duo still wanted to praise a few words, "It's well done. Don't put any pressure on time limit. Prioritize everything to ensure quality."
"Sir, the first teleportation circle is almost completed. Do you want to check it?"
"No need, I believe in your ability."
…
After leaving the public floor, Shado went straight to the control center on the top floor of the spire (there is also a migration anchor core above, but the formal layering only reaches this level).
At present, most of the internal infrastructure of the Mage Tower has not been completed, but this does not affect his creation of the tower spirit. After all, the functions of the Mage Tower itself are relatively complete.
More importantly, by mastering the relevant spells, he can update the tower spirit at any time and bring the subsequently completed infrastructure under the control of the tower spirit.
The ectoplasm consumed when casting the spell for the first time will always exist as long as the connection between the caster and the tower spirit continues. There is no need to consume additional ectoplasm to update the tower spirit in the future.
In fact, after cracking the enlightenment, Xia Duo even had some guesses about how the tower spirit would be passed down. If nothing else, it should be a special form of updated tower spirit.
Otherwise, there is no way to explain it. Later successors can still be connected to the essence of the tower spirit.
Now that the Tower of Time has undergone many major repairs and transformations, Shado should actually suggest Niya to update the tower spirit so that she can better use the Tower of Time.
…
Control center, blueprint room.
Sure enough, Shado found the "Space Expansion Construction Manual" left by Savile here, which detailed how to use demiplane to expand space.
Xia Duo simply flipped through it and put it away. At the moment, he didn't have time to study this. After repairing the floating city flight control and maintenance system, at least there will be a protection system. The adaptive mystery lock has not been designed. He needs to hurry up and do this.
Of course, if he hadn't had to wait for Tilak and the others to "get off work" so that he could create the tower spirit with peace of mind, Shado should actually be continuing to build Mythra in the blue crystal plane at this moment.
If Xia Duo were asked to rank his recent plans, the Midsummer Festival would undoubtedly be ranked first, followed by Mythra.
In addition to the hardware conditions of Minaret No. 1 itself, the tower spirit is also crucial to the Midsummer Festival.
The reason why Mythra is ranked second is because the construction and testing of the floating city's flight control system are inseparable from Mythra.
In addition, Shado wants to obtain surplus arcane crystals for research on portable space, so the more [Mythra] devices the better.
Theoretically, as long as the flight control system is built, a super basic floating city will be completed, and it will still shock a group of people when it is brought to the main plane.
It's just that Xia Duo doesn't want such a basic floating city. The mystery lock may be set back a little, but at least there must be a protection system to bring it to the main plane.
In addition, Shado had no energy to research the war spells that matched [Mythra], so he placed his hope on Iolum.
Based on Shado's understanding of Iolum, there is a high probability that war spells can be designed before he brings the floating city to the main plane.
I just don’t know if it can live up to expectations.
…
The time soon came to evening.
The construction workers in Spire No. 1 left one after another, and Sha Duo also began to take action. He solemnly took out four twisted phantom cores from his portable space and placed them in the blueprint of Spire No. 1 in the middle of the blueprint room.
Although under normal circumstances three copies of spiritual essence are enough, in order to be more safe, Sha Duo directly took out four copies. You must know that he had only obtained seven twisted phantom cores in the etheric overlapping area of Severnton before.
.
Most of it was taken out, which can be said to be a huge investment!
Fortunately, it's fine if there are too many of them. If there are too many and it fails, then he will really vomit blood. Even if he is given 70 pieces of spiritual essence, it probably won't be enough to try.
Of course, if that is the case, there may be various standard tower spirit solutions that have been tested by predecessors, but that solution will definitely require future generations to share a lot of trial and error costs, and the price will definitely be much more expensive than now.
After calming down and clearing all distracting thoughts, Sha Duo started casting spells directly in the blueprint room.
Unlike using [Scroll of Enlightenment], where you just wipe it and it will be done automatically without having to worry about anything, when you cast the spell yourself, every detail is very cumbersome.
However, Chateau had completed the equation spell, and a mere creation tower spirit could not trouble him at all. Before officially casting the spell, he had already anticipated all possible situations.
The spellcasting went smoothly. The only thing that made him feel a little undecided was the choice of projecting consciousness, but these can also be edited after the tower spirit is generated.
At this moment, Sha Duo's only thought was to complete the spell.
As the spell was completed, he felt as if his consciousness had turned into a ball of water, overflowing from his mind. When flowing through the core of the twisted phantom, it was like a ball of water flowing through the salt, completely melting it.
After that, under the influence of will, this special consciousness full of spiritual essence quickly spread and expanded until it encompassed all the targets that Sha Duo thought needed to be included.
At this moment, if any caster observes from the outside, Spire No. 1 has been completely enveloped by a strong white aura.
If the vision can be divided into only magical vision, then the No. 1 Spire at this moment will completely disappear from the observer's field of vision, and will be replaced by a white aura that is so intense that it is almost impossible to look directly at it.
For Xia Duo, Spire No. 1 has become an extension of his limbs at this moment. At this moment, he can even clearly feel the pressure of the alchemy circle in the middle hall of the public floor and the pressure of the scattered mithril ingots on the ground.
Even though this feeling was not the first time he had experienced it, Xia Duo still felt it was very magical, but this feeling would only stay at this moment.
As the spell took effect, Xia Duo felt that his consciousness, perception and that novel touch were quickly fading away, and he soon returned to his body.
But at this time, the tower spirit has been generated!
Closing his eyes to perceive the soul, Xia Duo clearly saw that in addition to the small ball of light of the "Spirit of Communication Instrument" that he had damaged and then repaired, there was another large ball of light that was almost four times as large.
"I didn't expect that the volume of this light ball is actually related to the amount of spiritual matter!"
Xia Duo sighed in his heart, consciously discovering another topic that could be studied, but if he wanted to study this topic, he couldn't do it without a stable source of spiritual matter.
Next is the "setting up" of the tower spirit. Compared to "creating", this step of "setting up" is even more important and must not be skipped.
