Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1884 Soul Problem
The rabbit dissociates directly, and the converted energy is as much as one-half of a standard arcane energy crystal.

This not only proves that the matter of the projection plane is also relatively (projection plane) real, and can still convert a large amount of energy.

At the same time, it also proved that it was indeed the previous experiment that caused the energy transformed by the rabbit itself to disappear.

"Then why?"

Xia Duo frowned, thinking hard, and after several experiments, the result was already obvious. Direct dissociation can transform into energy, and after using the arcane energy infection transformation ritual to become an arcane rabbit, these energies disappear out of thin air up?

What's the point of dissociation of a pinhole-sized piece of gold coin that can't even transform into energy?
Is Ritual an energy devourer?
Xia Duo carefully reviewed the entire process of the ritual spell from casting to taking effect, and he was sure that the spell itself did not devour energy.

The problem still lies with the rabbit, or what is the difference between the rabbit in the arcane state and the rabbit in the normal state!
This is probably the crux of the problem.

"Ao Neng Erosion Transformation Ritual? Ao Neng Rabbit?"

Xia Duo leaned back on the experimental table, resting his chin with his hands, and fell into deep thought, "The biggest difference between the arcane rabbit and the normal rabbit is that the former has been completely transformed by the erosion of arcane energy.

"Alternatively, the former was still alive the moment he became the Ao Neng Rabbit, while the latter died the moment he was dissociated, but both are dead, so what's the difference?"

Thinking of this, Xia Duo took out the last of the five rabbits. This little guy had already broken free from the druid's domestication shackles, and he was kicking his legs to do "gymnastics" right now!

But the good times didn't last long, as Xia Duo suddenly twisted its neck, the little guy immediately calmed down.

"I'd like to see what the result will be after the dead rabbit uses the arcane infection transformation ritual!"

Two standard arcane crystals are still used as the source of infection. After a long spellcasting, the spell is finally completed. Although the actual time may not be much, Xia Duo feels as if 1000 years have passed.

After counting silently for more than 1 minute, the experimental rabbit's closed eyes began to glow with a faint blue light, Xia Duo suddenly felt something was going on.

Soon, the faint blue light quickly infected the whole body of No. 5 experimental rabbit, followed by the dissipation of arcane energy, and Xia Duo was also ready to recover the spell early.

turn out--

"The amount of two and a half standard arcane energy crystals?!"

Xia Duo was shocked, it turned out that there is really a difference between live rabbits and dead rabbits in the experiment!
The conclusion is very obvious. If nothing else, it should have something to do with the soul, which he really hadn't considered before.

He knew that mana infection is related to consciousness, and consciousness is related to soul, but arcane infection has been proved to be relatively mild and will not change consciousness, but he did not expect that "no change" does not mean that there is no connection.

"Ao Neng Rabbit's soul stole the energy of the body? Or the energy transformed by the body has been integrated into the soul, and then the soul ran away, and the rest is provided by the transformation ceremony?"

Of course there is no such thing as "stealing" the soul, Xia Duo already has some guesses, and he can't wait to verify his guesses.

……

"Meiye, prepare two more rabbits for me, male rabbits!"

Xia Duo sent a message to the druid Mei Ye, asking the other party to bring the selected rabbit to the laboratory, while he himself began to prepare for the next experiment.

After a while, Mei Ye entered the laboratory with two rabbits that were about the same size as before, "My lord, the two male rabbits you want."

"Put it there, I don't need you tonight, go and rest!"

"Yes."

After Mei Ye left, Xia Duo confirmed the experimental procedure again, and then he carried a rabbit into the force field chamber on the experimental table.

The next steps are similar to the previous experiments, until the Ao Neng Rabbit appeared, Xia Duo immediately made a move - [Soul Binding Technique]!
The spell succeeded without any surprises. In fact, even if it was facing a great arcanist, as long as the opponent had no protection, the spell would probably succeed, not to mention that the target at this time was just an ordinary hare.

Even if it has been transformed into an arcane form, the nature of the rabbit is not so easy to change.

Xia Duo undoubtedly received this guy's soul, and imprisoned it in the arcane crystal, existing in the form of a faint light spot.

After that, the arcane energy was recovered as usual, and the two arcane energy crystals were not spent.

Next is the No. 7 experimental rabbit. This time, Xia Duo did not use the transformation ceremony on it, but directly imprisoned the soul. What he wants to see now is whether the transformation ceremony will change the soul, and how much it has changed.

Under the light, Xia Duo carefully compared the two spots of light in the two Ao Neng crystals. Although both were very faint, one of them was obviously brighter, that of the Ao Neng rabbit.

Xia Duo was not sure whether this was a difference between individual rabbits, or because of the transformation into an Ao Neng rabbit.

It's a pity that he can resurrect humans with minor sequelae, and even resurrect elves with strong sequelae, but he can't resurrect an ordinary hare.

Otherwise, he would definitely imprison the hare's soul first, determine the state of the soul, then resurrect it and transform it into an arcane rabbit, and then check the soul.

In this way, there is a more intuitive comparison.

But now, he can only make a statistical judgment by sacrificing more rabbits.

……

Since Mei Ye had been given a rest before, Xia Duo simply went to catch it by himself this time. Anyway, for convenience, he placed the rabbit house next to the laboratory.

Just go out and get it directly. The only regret is that Meiye is not here. He may not even be able to tell the difference between male and female rabbits, let alone find a rabbit that is in better condition than before.

However, such randomness is also beneficial, which will make the final conclusions have a higher degree of confidence.

After grabbing ten rabbits that were about the same size as before, Xia Duo immediately returned to the laboratory. Half of them were transformed into Ao Neng rabbits and then collected their souls, while the other half directly collected their souls.

The result was as expected——

The brightness of the soul of the Ao Neng rabbit in the Ao Neng crystal is brighter than that of a normal rabbit!
And the brightness of the soul, in a sense, is actually the intensity or energy level.

In other words, the Arcane Infection Transformation Ritual can strengthen the soul!

……

Next, Xia Duo judged the change of the transformation ritual to the soul by destroying the soul of the Ao Neng rabbit or the normal rabbit.

The result was somewhat unexpected. The soul of the Ao Neng Rabbit "exploded" almost 500 points of Ao Neng, which is the energy that the rabbit's body can transform in a normal state.

But the soul of a normal rabbit can't "explode" anything.

From this, Xia Duo came to two conclusions. One is that the soul of the Ao Neng rabbit "strengthened" by the transformation ceremony is not perfect, at least those energies are not really combined with the soul.

This conclusion is actually not difficult to understand. Ao Neng Rabbit itself is in an unstable state. If the soul is stable and perfect, wouldn’t it be transplanted to a normal body or create a new body for it? species?

Another conclusion is that the essence of the soul may not be energy.
