Not only did the other party answer the reason why the tower spirit was unable to cast spells, it was also because he connected the spells with the mythical locks and realized that this was the movement trend of the magic network. This understanding has reached a very high level.
Ordinary spellcasters may not distinguish the difference between the Strings of the Weave and the Strings of the Weave, let alone think about the nature of spellcasting, but the Arcanist does not.
If you don't understand the Weave, the nature of spellcasting, and the will as an aspect of the soul, you simply can't become an arcanist.
As for the question of whether the tower spirit can cast spells, in fact, any spell caster can easily think about it if he thinks about it for a moment. Why can the tower spirit control all the facilities in the mage tower, but cannot cast spells randomly as needed?
Single-element magic items are not difficult to implement. It can even be said to be easy to implement. It is essentially an extremely simple magic trick.
Countless magic tricks combined together become a real spell. Xia Duo believes that someone must have thought about this problem in the past, or even tried it personally.
The spell pool commonly used in mage towers today may be a product of that time, but precisely because it is a spell pool and not an element pool, it means that people at that time could not overcome the fact that the tower spirit had no will and could not locate the source of the spell.
Xia Duo's current spell pool is not designed for tower spirits, but for experimenters. If all experiments require experimenters to cast spells by themselves, it would be too tiring.
In the Tower of Time in the past or most of the mage towers in Netheril now, the mentor's exploitation of the apprentice was largely due to the limited number of spells he could cast, and he had to use coordinated spellcasting to exploit the apprentice's spellcasting ability.
It's just that the element-level spell pool is not something with a high threshold. It is much simpler than a real spell pool. Anyone who can build a mage tower can also build an element-level spell pool.
Why it hasn't appeared yet? Perhaps it's because Mage Nese didn't realize that he could exploit apprentices in his blind spot. This is supplemented by the fact that some mage towers may have been designed a long time ago, but they just haven't been made public.
Xia Duo doesn't care about making it public. In fact, he is more inclined to make it public. Recently, he has received some bad news, so he plans to make this application public after the snow melting competition is over.
Of course, in addition to being used as a bargaining chip, Xia Duo also disclosed this application in the hope that the Mage Tower organizations in various places in Nese will conduct in-depth research on this. If they can find a way to let the tower spirits cast spells, that would be great.
But this hope is very slim. If you can cast a spell, you can link the magic item to the magic network. This is the standard arcane magic version of fully automatic production pre-production technology.
…
"Currently, I am not able to design and build an exhaustive element-level spell pool. If you need to use elements that are not in the spell pool during the experiment, please remind me to add them at any time. I hope this facility can ease your next work.
Some burden."
"Um."
De Parker responded, and then continued to visit the laboratory with Sha Duo. By the end of this trip, De Parker had already had a very deep impression of the Creation Mystery Lock Laboratory.
Of course, he also has a preliminary understanding of the Creation Mystery Lock project and the work he needs to do in the future.
In Depak's view, the Mystery of Creation is more like a nearly omnipotent new alchemical formation. One can imagine the difficulty of designing it, and his future work can be summarized in one sentence -
Like an apprentice, conduct various tests according to the above requirements, report back the results, and then repeat the process.
Having come from an apprenticeship, Depak was no stranger to this aspect of work. He had not experienced apprenticeship life for so long, which made him feel a little novel and even a little excited about the next job.
…
On Sha Duo's side, after introducing De Park to the laboratory and allowing him to temporarily intern with Ai Burke, Sha Duo felt much more relaxed.
I discussed the mystery lock issue with Saville for a while. The current research progress of the two of them depends largely on the experimental progress of Aibok.
For the entire project, Xia Duo divided it into two parts to implement. One is the expansion of the power of creation, that is, the design of controls that can accurately control the intensity, attributes, direction, range and even more attributes of the power of creation.
.
Or it can also be used for the MyLock interface.
The other part is the design of the Mystery function based on this, including but not limited to connection with the power of creation, auxiliary control in production, interaction with casters, permission settings, encryption, etc.
The most difficult part is the first part, which is also the part where Chateau and Saville are currently discussing, communicating, experimenting, and improving the most intensely. At most, they can change several plans in one day.
As for the second part, the framework of other myth locks can be applied to a large extent, but Shado does not like to use the traditional myth locks of elves, and prefers to develop on the basis of the floating city's adaptive myth locks.
The second part is currently only on paper, and no relevant design and experiments have been carried out. It will not be too late to start the second part after the first part has made progress.
The Adaptive Mystery Lock is a new type of Mystery Lock that Sha Duo participated in the development of in the projection plane. It is different from the traditional Elf Mystery Lock. He has enough confidence in the subsequent development and application of the Adaptive Mystery Lock.
On the contrary, it is the traditional Elf Myth Lock. The elves have accumulated too much in it. Although Sha Duo knows a lot about Elf Magic, he dare not say that he is completely proficient in the Myst Lock field. He is very worried that he may be an Elf after studying it.
Playing with the rest would be miserable.
Simply change the track, just like the Creation Mystery itself.
When Imaskar used the Secret Artifact of Creation, he couldn't match it, so he switched to the Mystic Lock. The traditional Mystic Lock couldn't compare to the elves, so he adapted to the Mystic Lock.
The smartest thing about intelligent life is that it will always find a way for itself, but some people use it for good and some people use it for bad.
…
Seven days later, three days before the snow is melted and the new is incorporated, it is also the seventh day when the first steam locomotive design competition of the Tower of Time officially begins.
In the past few days, more and more participating teams have been testing cars in the floating city. It is not the prototype cars issued to them, but the competition cars designed and manufactured by themselves.
As long as the number of people in the team is not too small, with the help of the alchemy circle, half a day is enough to save a steam car, and more time is spent on improvement and testing.
Also because more and more participating cars showed up, many participating teams realized the differences between people in the field of mechanical design, and gave up the competition one after another, preparing to use the remaining time to make up for themselves.
But most of them choose not to give up and continue to participate in the competition. After all, they have been busy for so many days and all the team members have devoted a lot of time and energy to this. They will not be willing to not touch other people.
When Xia Duo was working overtime in the Creation Mystery Lock Laboratory, he did not forget to pay close attention to the motorcycle design competition, and he basically had a good idea of the cars that each team was preparing for the competition.
