Noyce's laboratory is well soundproofed, and there is no sound other than the rustling of quills in contact with paper.

In such a quiet environment, it is easier for people to fall into concentration.

Colin stood on the left hand side of Noyce, carefully reading the manuscript paper in his hand.

This was the first sheet on the pile of manuscript paper on the far left. After checking it for a moment, he put it back.

Noyce should have placed these manuscript papers in order. What he just took were fragments in the middle of a certain reasoning process. It is a bit difficult to understand without combining the previous content.

Colin turned over the manuscript paper in front of him, and after a moment, he picked up the middlemost manuscript paper, which was the front part.

Noyce's writing hand paused for a moment, glanced at him, and then continued to concentrate on checking.

It can be seen that there is the manuscript paper at the front... It seems that at least Colin must have done some research on the crimson mark technique secretly.

In fact, this is exactly the case. After breaking the limit of the Crimson Marking Technique with the help of gold paper, Colin's understanding of it has reached a new level.

Otherwise, if it had been done yesterday when the limit had not been exceeded, I would have been confused when faced with the manuscript paper in front of me.

But even now, the complex content on the manuscript paper in front of me still seems a bit too obscure, and some knowledge is beyond the scope of current mastery.

Colin watched attentively. He read very slowly, even with difficulty.

But like a snail crawling with a heavy shell on its back, although it is slow, at least it is still moving forward reluctantly.

In this process, complex knowledge was constantly being exchanged in Colin's mind.

For some things that you don't understand, you can successfully deduce them after reading them carefully several times based on the context and analysis in your mind.

Moreover, under the influence of Super Brain, he does not need to use paper and pen to assist in sorting out, especially when it comes to calculations, he can get the answer at a glance.

Just like that, after a while, Colin seemed to feel something, and suddenly his mind moved and he summoned the gold paper.

He glanced calmly out of the corner of his eye, his expression slightly startled.

After a limit-breaking crimson mark operation, a ↑ symbol flashed inconspicuously.

This is a sign that the Crimson Mark Technique is improving.

But soon, Colin reacted -

This is a very normal phenomenon. After all, the progress on the gold paper represents the level of understanding and mastery of witchcraft.

And I want to improve my understanding of witchcraft.

For ordinary wizards, the most orthodox approach should be to first study the theory behind it on paper, supplemented by appropriate exercises as a reference for actual cases.

After you fully understand the knowledge behind witchcraft, practice more to improve your proficiency in spellcasting.

If it is an important witchcraft of level one or above, the witchcraft model will also be engraved in the spiritual sea.

But for Colin, the faster and more efficient way is to simply practice.

If witchcraft were a flashlight, the effect would be to emit light.

If an ordinary wizard wants to completely master this "flashlight" witchcraft and emit light proficiently, he must dismantle it and understand the principle and structure of each part behind it.

But for him, he only needs to keep turning the flashlight on and off before he can naturally understand the structure and principles.

This is the gift of being able to penetrate from the surface to the essence.

Putting down the manuscript paper in his hand and placing it aside regularly for easy restoration later, Colin continued to pick up the next piece of manuscript paper and read it.

On the gold paper, the numbers behind the crimson marking technique trembled slightly and were fixed at - (1/100).

Colin smiled subtly in his heart and continued to read attentively.

After all, you have to know that it is not always possible to see such detailed witchcraft manuscripts, not to mention that these manuscripts come from the famous Noyce's pen.

Every opportunity to improve your strength must be seized!

In addition, in addition to direct progress improvement, learning more different related knowledge can also increase the upper limit of the gold paper limit-breaking crimson mark technique.

To some extent, this is a more valuable benefit.

The only pity is that some of the contents on the manuscript written by Noyce are so out of outline that even if you read it carefully, you still can't understand it.

When encountering such a place, Colin could only choose to skip it and try his best to understand as much as possible.

It has to be said that even though I have used gold paper to break the limit once, my understanding of the Crimson Marking Technique is still far behind that of Noyce.

In fact, the Crimson Marking Technique that he first mastered was actually a reduced version optimized by Noyce.

The reason for making the reduced version is obviously to popularize this witchcraft as much as possible, so that every wizard above the advanced apprentice level can use it.

It can be seen that before making this final version of the Crimson Mark Technique, Noyce may have developed countless versions of the Crimson Mark Technique.

Just thinking about the amount of effort and talent required is astonishing!

Of course, the benefits that the ultimately researched Crimson Marking Technique brought to the wizards did not live up to these efforts at all.

Just like that, I don't know how long it took, until the characters on the gold paper had jumped to 12/100, Noyce finally ended a stage of inference and stopped.

"How are you doing? Can you understand?" Noyce raised his head and asked. There was deep fatigue on the face of an ordinary middle-aged man.

In order to quickly develop new witchcraft that can identify followers of gods, he has hardly slept a wink these days.

Of course, this kind of fatigue is not the effect of not sleeping, but more a manifestation of mental exertion.

"I can understand a little bit." Colin put down the manuscript paper and restored it to its original appearance one by one.

"If you can understand even part of what I wrote, you are far ahead of others in the Crimson Marking Technique."

Noyce looked at Colin's neatly stacked manuscript papers, nodded with satisfaction, and then praised.

Colin smiled and did not answer.

Seeing his appearance, Noyce became interested, paused and asked:

"Now that you understand a little bit, do you understand the problem I'm encountering now?"

"...The disappearance of some traces of faith." Colin pondered for a moment and then answered briefly.

Noyce glanced at him, and a trace of undetectable surprise flashed through his deep eyes:

"You're not lying."

"I have always been honest." Colin replied neither humble nor overbearing.

In the reading just now, his biggest gain was to understand the essence of the Crimson Marking Technique.

In other words, the crimson mark technique can identify the followers of gods.

This basis is a trace unique to believers of gods.

Specifically, it is the trace that the believers of the gods gave their faith to the gods after praying.

This essence cannot be known if one only learns the ordinary crimson marking technique. It was cleverly hidden by Noyce in order to avoid being cracked.

But it is a pity that now it seems that the gods have developed corresponding countermeasures.

"The thread of faith." Noyce suddenly said again, "I call this trace the thread of faith.

This is an extremely difficult to detect trace, which cannot be observed using conventional light-sensitive vision, even with super-sense."

"After trying countless methods, I accidentally used the Douglas Shuttle Technique to observe in the spiritual world, and noticed this trace.

Because the form it takes in the spiritual world is like a thread, I call it the thread of faith."

Colin nodded. Noyce's words made him understand a little more about the crimson mark technique.

"It's a pity that the gods may have discovered this now and used some means to cover up this trace." Noyce sighed and raised his hand to press his frown.

"It is also possible that the current spies of gods have never prayed to gods, so there are no such traces." Colin said.

From the small part of the manuscript he just saw, it can be seen that Noyce's current research direction is mainly to crack the disguise of gods on the thread of faith.

But obviously, there is another possibility that the Crimson Marking Technique no longer works.

"I have also considered what you said." Noyes nodded, "It's just that I chose to prioritize whether the gods have put up a disguise on the line of faith."

"In addition, I am also looking for new basis for judging believers of gods, but I have found nothing yet."

Rather than the thread of faith disappearing, he believed more that the thread of faith had been covered up by some means.

Colin nodded without any surprise. It was normal for Noyce to consider everything he could think of.

He thought of it at the beginning, but still said the reminder.

After all, obviously you can't keep the reminder that you want to say out in your heart just for this reason.

What if Noyce just didn’t think of it?

The new witchcraft for identifying followers of gods is very important to the wizard, and it is closely related to him as a wizard, and to every wizard.

"Do you have any other ideas?" Noyce continued to ask, his words gentle, as if he was encouraging his students.

"I do have some ideas." Colin paused.

The Crimson Marking Technique that just passed the golden paper limit breaking this morning is more of a strengthening of the detection range effect, but the essential basis has not changed, it is still through the Thread of Faith.

So it doesn't help much with the dilemma we're facing.

But after reading the manuscript just now, he still had some thoughts in his mind that he wanted to talk about.
To be continued...
