Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1908 True Arcane Form

After receiving the news, Xia Duo rushed to the laboratory immediately.

Unlike Mira's ignorant toddler, Eastmus, as a senior mage, with his understanding of blood and magic, can definitely unearth a considerable part of the potential of the arcane elves in a short period of time.

Laboratory 2.

When Xia Duo first came in, he saw an arcane elf who was emitting a strong magical aura. Through his body, Xia Duo could even vaguely see the scene on the other side of the laboratory.

"Estermus, how are you feeling?"

"I feel better than ever, haha!"

At this moment, Eastmus' voice seemed to be coming from the sky. It was ethereal, cold, and even had a slight echo, as if special reverberation effects had been turned on.

Xia Duo suddenly had countless questions in his heart, and for a while he didn't know where to ask, so he obeyed the first reaction in his heart and asked:
"What do you use to speak now? Does the body in the arcane state also have vocal cords?"

"Uh--"

Eastmus obviously didn't expect Xia Duo to ask such a question, he was stunned for a few seconds before reacting, and explained:
"I'm actually more like a magic item now. I don't speak through the vocal cords, but a special ability produced by the mysticization of the body, similar to the communication technique, but in fact I can still do this—"

In the middle of speaking, Eastmus suddenly shut up, but Xia Duo simultaneously received a request for telepathic communication. After agreeing, a piece of information came into consciousness:

"Psychic communication is also an instinct of the arcane elves."

There is even telepathy? !
For some reason, Xia Duo suddenly regretted that he hadn't found a few mage volunteers, Mira is really awesome!
Without waiting for Xia Duo to think about it, Eastmus demonstrated a new ability again. He saw a wave on the surface of his arcane body. The next moment, he disappeared from the spot and reappeared to the other side of the laboratory .

"Don't tell me this is also an instinct of the Arcane Elves?"

Xia Duo is obviously unwilling to accept this reality now, but the reality will not change because of his unwillingness to accept it. Eastmus's ethereal, cold and echoing voice came again:
"Unfortunately, this is an instinct I have now!"

Eastmus seemed to be in a good mood at the moment, and even joked, "Look, I can teleport like this, and I can teleport like this!"

He demonstrated two teleportation methods one after another, both of which were different from the previous ones. The first one was more like a direct arcane transition, while the latter two had a sense of a regular spell frame.

Apparently Eastmus has discovered the unique spellcasting method of the arcane elves.

It is completely different from Xia Duo's previous prediction that it can only be applied to the simple application of arcane energy, and there is even a shadow of an arcanist.

It’s impossible to have results just after getting the information!
In fact, Eastmus' achievements were far more than these. Immediately afterwards, he cast a simple transformation spell in front of Xia Duo.

The next moment, he who was originally in the blue form of arcane energy instantly turned into a mass of almost completely transparent gas.

If it wasn't for the difference in density between it and the air in the laboratory environment, a fuzzy outline appeared on the edge of the current wind element form. At first glance, it would be difficult to find traces of its existence.

Xia Duo noticed that the spell used by the other party was roughly the same as the principle he predicted before, so he asked again: "Can't it be transformed into other elemental forms by itself?"

"No, although arcane energy can be converted into other elements, it is a very stable form of energy. For the time being, it can only be transformed with the help of spells. If we study more in the future, we may be able to find a way to transform it by ourselves."

After finishing speaking, Eastmus returned to his arcane form again. He needed spell assistance to transform into the past, but he didn't need to change back. "When I became an elemental form, I could feel the call from the inner plane. I felt that if If it returns unchanged for a long time, it may be assimilated into an elemental creature.

"Although my current appearance looks like an elemental creature, I am still a normal elf in essence. You see—"

Xia Duo looked in the direction of Eastmus' finger, and saw a gap two or three fingers wide split open in the other's chest. Through the gap, Xia Duo could see the beating arcane heart inside the chest cavity.

In this regard, Eastmus explained: "Although I am now in the arcane form, in my own feelings, I am still similar to the flesh and blood form. I can still feel the heartbeat and body temperature, but—"

Speaking of this, Eastmus paused for a moment, then directly squeezed his hand in through the gap in his chest, and pulled out the translucent heart that was also faint blue and still beating inside.

Seeing this scene, Xia Duo was both surprised and thought it was true. The next moment, the heart that Eastmus was taken out seemed to melt, and it collapsed from the palm of his hand and merged into his body. Another intact heart grew out of the fleshy chest cavity.

"My current body has no obvious weaknesses. Even if my head is chopped off or my heart is taken out, at most I will lose some arcane energy reserves. As long as it does not exceed a certain limit, I can still recover."

"Have you tried it?" Xia Duo couldn't help asking.

"How can it be so fast, but just like the flesh and blood form will hurt if your hands are cut, I also have some instinctive premonitions about various injuries in the arcane form."

"Then how long can you maintain your current form?" Xia Duo continued to ask.

"As long as I want, I can keep it going. At least from the time the transformation ceremony was completed until now, I haven't felt any limit."

"Can I eat?"

"I tried this, but unfortunately, it doesn't work." Eastmus said regretfully, "If I can eat, maybe I will always maintain this form."

That's it!
Xia Duo was thoughtful, the arcan energy form cannot eat, but Schilling's saint form incarnation can eat. The latter is essentially a special energy form. If the latter can eat, the former should also eat. Can.

It's just that it hasn't been developed yet.

After thinking for a while, Xia Duo asked again: "Does the form of arcane energy benefit spellcasting?"

"I wish there was, but there isn't."

Eastmus once again expressed his regret. The current form of arcane energy seems to have a lot of tricks, but for high-ranking mages, if it can't improve spellcasting, it is still a weakening in essence.

"Of course, if I can become the arcanist mentioned in your information, maybe there will be some changes."

"Then in the current state, can you still release your power and enter the form of a saint?" Xia Duo asked again.

If you can directly enter the holy form in the arcane form, then whether the arcane form has a spellcasting gain is actually not that important.

If not, then for high mages, the arcane form might be too weak.

Eastmus' answer to this was—

"I haven't tried this yet, but I don't think it's a big problem."
