Chapter 1874: Grand Arcanist's Advanced Imagination
Demons have magic power, and arcanists have arcane powers. Since demons can use magic power to infect them to obtain special bloodlines, why can’t arcanists use arcane power to infect them to obtain special bloodlines?
Maybe this is the "magic of cultivating immortality" that Xia Duo has been looking forward to!
However, there is a bloodline sequencing plan that is more ambitious and closer to the essence of Jilan Tower, and Shado has also sent Wei Peisheng from the Tower of Time to participate in it. Naturally, he will not rashly try to use arcane infection on himself.
Even in the projection plane, he still has to consider whether the bit of reality projected will be affected.
At least until he is sure that there are no hidden dangers and no conflict with his own bloodline, he is not going to use arcane infection on himself.
Right now, the projection plane gives him the best experimental environment. In the projection plane, he doesn't have to worry about research being leaked and can safely find people to communicate with.
Moreover, in elf society, classes are severely entrenched, and there is always no shortage of low-level elves who are willing to pay any price for a class jump.
Xia Duo speculated that the hidden dangers of arcane infection should be far less than those of magic infection.
Although magic energy has more advantages than arcane energy in combat, in terms of versatility, magic energy is not as good as arcane energy.
Moreover, the process of generating arcane energy is precise and clear, and does not contain any unknown things. It is much stronger than the abyss aura of unknown origin. Even if there are hidden dangers, they will be relatively controllable.
In fact, even if there are major hidden dangers, Xia Duo is not prepared to give up the experiment. New technologies inevitably have risks. This is like a drug clinical trial on earth. The subjects will also face various risks, including but not limited to death, and even more.
To live miserably.
But for the advancement of medicine and the well-being of the broader human race, someone must make sacrifices.
Moreover, most of the subjects themselves are also beneficiaries of relevant drugs. Participating in the experiment may still have a chance to be cured or just survive. If you do not participate, you may be deprived of even the last glimmer of hope.
As for the arcane infection experiment, for Sha Duo, this was also done for the advancement of magic and the advancement of longevity research.
It would be great if real creatures from the main plane could be replaced by virtual creatures from the projected plane that are essentially nothing more than a bit of astral spirit.
Moreover, he will not force the target to participate in the experiment, and will inform the target of various risks that may arise from the experiment before the experiment.
He still has these basic principles.
Of course, Xia Duo still has a lot of questions about the process and principles of magic energy infection, let alone transplanting it into arcane energy infection. He will not recruit subjects in the short term.
At least until Everesca's new Mystery Lock project is launched, he won't have any thoughts in this regard.
"It's just - how does this magic energy infection change the nature of living things instead of transforming them into elemental-like creatures?"
Sha Duo was very confused by this. You must know that Master Nese's moral bottom line in the main plane was not as high as his. He didn't even think about many experiments, but Master Nese had really been done by someone.
For example, a living person is placed in a high-concentration elemental environment to obtain the corresponding elemental bloodline. Unfortunately, although the experimental subject can indeed cast spells in the end, he is irreversibly transformed into an elemental form, and for a short time Will die quickly within.
Xia Duo has heard of this kind of experiment for a long time, but has never heard of any successful cases. Maybe some mages have succeeded privately, but have not made it public.
But judging from the fact that Kiran Tower consumes a huge amount of manpower and material resources to carry out the bloodline sequencing project, perhaps Kiran Tower has long known that that method is unreliable.
But demons do exist.
Moreover, the side effect of the Akoala Elf's contact with the Dragon Madness Lock - dragon transformation, also looks like a phenomenon of energy infection, and the effect is more significant.
That is to say, the elves are unwilling to accept such a complete change of race, and they are still a lower-ranking race in their eyes. If it is changed to humans, many humans may not be able to dream of it!
At least when Xia Duo first traveled through time, if he was given a chance to become a dragon, he would accept it without hesitation.
Dragon transformation and demon descent are real, which means that energy infection is used to change the essence of living things. The upper limit is to completely change the race, and the lower limit is to at least obtain a special bloodline. It is feasible in theory.
Naturally, it also includes arcane energy, and even the four elements, positive and negative energy.
"correct!"
Thinking of positive and negative energy, Xia Duo suddenly discovered that undead creatures can also be regarded as the result of negative energy infection!
Even the divine envoys of the Kingdom of Glory, especially the Holy Light divine envoys in the form of light balls, are very much like some kind of positive energy creatures.
Xia Duo saw an elf envoy from the Elf Kingdom in the princess's kingdom. That guy was different from the elf envoy from the Kingdom of Glory, and was closer to the saint form of a high mage.
In other words, the saint form of the high mage is also a special form of energy, so it cannot be maintained for a long time, for fear that it will not be able to change back.
In the end, it either disintegrates on its own, or rushes to the Kingdom of Elf before death, where there may be some special means to maintain this form for a long time, or the special environment in the outer plane can allow the incarnation of the saint to exist for a long time.
As for the saint form incarnation that Sha Duo is currently using, because it is an incarnation created by Xilin's body, there is no question of whether it can change back or not.
But its ability to be maintained for a long time is also worthy of consideration!
Perhaps this incarnation is not as permanent as he originally imagined, but the time he has maintained the incarnation has not yet reached the critical point.
Once his perspective on the problem changed, Xia Duo suddenly discovered that the phenomenon of energy infection occurs almost everywhere, but the degree is different.
Perhaps the final effect of the arcane infection is a saint form similar to that of the Elven High Mage!
It almost appears in the form of pure energy, no, I don’t know yet! Sha Duo almost forgot that the essence of the arcanist is not arcane energy, but arcane fire!
At that time, the ultimate form of the arcanist is likely to be a "mini magic god" who controls the micro magic network!
If all the relevant research goes well, then Shado will greatly expand the horizontal development width of the arcanist profession.
As for the upper limit, there is only one way to ascend to the gods in a short period of time, but that is not a pure arcane path, nor is it universal. Xia Duo speculates that the great arcanist's continued advancement will most likely fall on arcane fire.
It's just that the current Arcane Fire of the Grand Arcanist is no longer essentially different from the real Great Magic Network environment, it's just a quantitative difference.
Shado is not the only one who is confused about how to develop next. The great arcanists of Netheril are also confused.
If it develops quantitatively, it will eventually become another Great Magic Network environment, and according to Sha Duo's speculation, the goddess of magic will most likely not be able to control all of the Great Magic Network, at least not at the same time.
Otherwise, he would be too powerful, and even if all the other gods were combined, they would not be his opponent.
If the arcanist's micro-magic network is developed to a large amount, it may eventually face uncontrollable results, which are all predictable.
Only qualitative changes can lead to qualitative improvement.
Or maybe the magic network itself still has an undiscovered essence. Unlike spells, spells are just a way to use energy. Although they can be extremely powerful, they can only expand the breadth of the arcanist profession.
If the Weave itself has an undiscovered nature, it may allow the Grand Arcanist to continue to advance.
Alternatively, the breadth of the Arcanist profession can also be continuously expanded, completely developed horizontally, and the breadth is regarded as the height.
If this is the case, it is also a good path. It may not be impossible to achieve it by being a mortal on par with gods.
