Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1729
As for how to ask for help with psychic magic, Xia Duo thought of the Kalishi Ailei psychic hut over Evereska. Maybe he could use the channel of the Jinfeng family to find help from the other party, of course he could go there in person.

As for the psychic kingdom in the south, Xia Duo has no idea of ​​getting in touch with it for the time being. If it really attracts the attention there from the south, it will be a bit of a loss.

"I see, teacher, if possible, please help me with this matter."

Xia Duo knew that Iolum had a connection with Evereska's psionic mage, and once tried to send Luo Wei to the spiritual country Zamdas in the south to receive spiritual enlightenment, but Xia Duo dissuaded him.

Now Luo Wei is still staying in the stasis room of the Tower of Time!

Thinking of this, Xia Duo felt that when he had time, he would definitely release Luo Wei and heal him. Although Iolum seldom asked him about Luo Wei's situation, he was definitely worried.

If it is cured as soon as possible, everyone will be relieved of one thing.

For Xia Duo's request, Iolum did not refuse, but he couldn't guarantee that psionic magic would be able to do things that he couldn't do. After all, in his heart, he actually looked down on psionic magic. of.

"I'll give you an answer before the end of the month, but don't expect too much. If psionic magic is really so omnipotent, it won't be popular only in Zamdas."

"I can understand, no matter what the result is, I can accept it, please trouble the teacher."

After talking about these personal matters, Xia Duo quickly changed the topic to his real intention of coming to see Iolum this time, and asked, "Does the teacher know about the leap beast at the etheric advance base?"

"I know, what's wrong?"

"I think it is possible to build a jumping beast farm in the base for sustainable development, otherwise, after the group of jumping beasts that migrated here are hunted down, there may never be so many jumping beasts again. "

Because it was for Iolum, Xia Duo didn't pave the way too much, and directly expressed his thoughts. If the Austrian Law Federation or the Seven Towers were unwilling to invest, then he also hoped to build a small breeding farm by himself.

"Farms? Specialized in breeding leap beasts?"

Iolum was obviously shocked by Xia Duo's thought, "Do you know the living habits of leap beasts? What do they usually eat? How much?"

"I don't know, but since they chose to migrate to the vicinity of the ether forward base, there must be an environment suitable for their production, we just need to use it."

"Let me think about it."

At this moment, what Iolum is thinking about is not whether it is possible to build a leap beast farm, but what is the significance of building a farm. Just a nominal "sustainable development" can't impress him.

Iolum's hesitation was seen by Xia Duo. He wasn't sure what the teacher was hesitating about, but he was prepared for many reasons:
"The leap beast is full of treasures. The blood can be used to make starry sky ink, the meat is delicious and edible, and the leather is a natural protective force field and material for spiritual spells. Of course, I value its bones more."

"What happened to the skeleton?" Iolam asked curiously.

In fact, he knows much more about the leap beast than Xia Duo, but Xia Duo deliberately mentioned the skeleton, so is there any fact he doesn't understand?
"The bones of the leap beast can be made into magic items after simple processing, not even limited to the magic-like abilities possessed by the leap beast itself. I think there is a high probability that it can become the carrier of most spells."

After a pause, Xia Duo continued: "If the bones of the leap beast can be used to manufacture low-end magic items, first of all, it will help to promote the spread of magic, and even the improvement of national power. Secondly, it can also save this part of Mithril. , and use it in more important areas."

"Did you think so?"

Iolum was thoughtful. He was noncommittal about the previous point. If he wanted to spread and popularize magic, the resistance did not lie in the number of low-end magic items, but in the conservative forces that grew stronger day by day.

But saving Mithril made him very excited.

You must know that the refining of high-grade Mithril is not a lossless refining. In theory, even if the technology is advanced to the extreme, there will be a considerable degree of loss.

If Nasi magic wants to develop to a higher level, high-grade mithril is almost an indispensable and important resource. Although domestic mithril is no longer restricted by the Three Kingdoms Mithril Agreement and must be exported, if you process it yourself, the loss Instead it got bigger.

Therefore, in fact, Netheril still needs to import a large amount of high-quality mithril from the elves.

If there is a low-end substitute material, it will indeed relieve a lot of pressure. At least the low-end consumption will be less, so that the country can try a few more times, so that there will be more opportunities to research high-grade secrets that are closer to the refining efficiency of elves. Silver extraction technology.

The only problem now is-

Can the Leap Beast Bones really replace Mithril?

This question is very important. It is impossible for Iolum to persuade the Seven Towers to make a general strategic adjustment based on Xia Duo's words. He must see tangible evidence, so he asked:
"What did you find? Can those bones really work like that?"

"I haven't actually verified it, but doesn't the teacher think that the nature of the leaping beast bone is a bit similar to that of the energy-guiding crystal?" Xia Duo asked rhetorically.

He originally thought that this question would be easy for Iolum to understand, but he didn't know that the other party had no similar thoughts. Even if he mentioned it clearly at this moment, Iolum's reaction was a little too slow.

"A channeling crystal?"

Iolum's expression changed, as if he had thought of something, he quickly asked Xia Duo: "Do you have a leap beast bone on your body now?"

"Have."

Xia Duo immediately took out a big bone with a trace of snow-white flesh, handed it to the teacher, and asked curiously: "Hasn't the teacher seen the bones of the leap beast before?"

"No, don't you think I'm so free that I have to go over the bones of the jumping beast myself?"

After finishing speaking, Iolum added, "Most of what I know about the Leap Beast is the information shared from the Seven Towers. Of course, I have also seen the Leap Beast, but I didn't expect its skeleton to be like this!"

At this moment, Iolum has already carried out a simple inspection on the skeleton of the leap beast that Xia Duo took out, and he found that the nature of this skeleton is indeed somewhat similar to that of the energy-guiding crystal.

Both use the special structure of the material itself to form various energy conduction channels. The nature of the leap beast bone itself may be more inclined to the formation of force fields and mind-like spells, and it is not as versatile as the energy-conducting crystal.

However, compared to the energy-conducting crystals that are very unstable and can only be stored in the [extremely cold vacuum field with low element activity], the bones of jumping beasts derived from living organisms are undoubtedly much more stable.

Although Xiaduo didn't mention that this kind of bone can continue to be used to make magic items after boiling soup, Iolum can roughly infer one or two from its own state of existence.

If this biological material can be deeply processed to make its energy-conducting properties close to those of energy-conducting crystals, then it has the potential to fully replace Mithril.

But after thinking about it, the extraction of natural materials like mithril is so difficult, and the deep processing of biological materials like the bones of leap beasts may only become more complicated.

But it's still a thought!
