Lord of Arcane

Chapter 394 Magic Mirror
After asking a series of questions, Tilak was a little overwhelmed. He had never received such a degree of attention before. He stammered and said:
"My lord, there is enough support, and the research is going well, but there are just a few people!"

A little less people?Xia Duo understood as soon as he heard it, this is the need for a "spell battery".

The energy of a single mage is always given priority. If other mages cooperate with him to perform synergistic resonance casting, it will greatly reduce their own consumption and allow more experiments to be carried out.

Of course, if there are too many people, it can also be handed over to other people for experimentation. As long as the experimenter can fully understand the idea of ​​​​the project leader, it is not much different from synergistic resonance casting in essence.

And because the contract signed by Tilak and the Tower of Time directly buys out the new results, he doesn't care about getting more people involved. On the contrary, the more people there are, the faster the research speed is, and he can get what he wants faster.

Xia Duo also somewhat understood Tilak's thoughts, but he didn't mind, on the contrary, he was happy to see this. Perhaps the transformation of the Tower of Time can start from Tilak's research room.

After thinking for a while, he pulled Dean aside, cast a sound-proof enchantment, and asked, "How many reserve members are there in the organization now? How many prospective members are there?"

Dean is very familiar with the members of the organization. Hearing Xia Duo's inquiry, he immediately said without hesitation, "There are seven potential members and 25 associate members. In addition, there are many apprentices who are also actively moving closer to the organization."

"very good!"

Xia Duo praised without hesitation. He didn't expect that there were as many as seven reserve members in the organization, which meant that seven official mages had been reserved.

In addition, there are 25 associate members, all of whom have the potential to be full-time mages, let alone many activists.

Unknowingly, the organization has grown to this point, which also made Xia Duo more sure that the Tower of Time can only go through transformation, because other mage towers have already started.

"Taling, open up a new authority for the personnel management of the Tower of Time, tentatively named 'study group', and transfer the relationship between Dean, Sammy, Edrich, and Dewan to the study group. Also help me make an appointment for Master Depak in the afternoon See you at 4 o'clock."

"Executor Xia Duo, new permissions have been opened, please set the specific permissions yourself."

Xia Duo didn't create any privileges for the time being, but just separated the organization for easy operation.

As for the name, the organization no longer needs to hide it, so the name is still needed, but for now, it will be covered with a "study group", and the official name will be determined later.

Xia Duo actually doesn't care much about the title, as long as the organization is the one he wants.

"Dean, have you received the reminder from Taring?"

"Got it, but this—"

"In the future, the organization will be a formal organization. Reserve members and associate members will be added to it. In addition, I will give you another task to develop Tilak into an organization member."

"Tilak?"

"Yes!" Xia Duo said with certainty.

In fact, it was his idea to bring Tilak into the organization. After all, the low-level mages independently presided over a special project. In the eyes of the mages in the Tower of Time, it was a bit deviant, but they didn't expressly object to it because it had nothing to do with them.

But from another perspective, Tilak actually represents the power of development and progress. Regardless of his own thoughts, his existence is consistent with the organization's philosophy.

What is the purpose of cooperation, openness, sharing, and win-win? Isn't it just development and progress!

……

With the sound-proof barrier removed, Xia Duo heard other people discussing the new permissions prompted by Ta Ling, and Tilak also asked this and that curiously, and seemed to have a lot of interest in the "study group".

"Tilak, I'll give you six more people!"

These six people are actually the other six people except Donald among the seven reserve members of the organization.

When Tilak heard this, he was overjoyed. He just said it casually, but he didn't expect Xia Duo to actually increase his manpower. "Lord Xia Duo, I really appreciate your support!"

"You're welcome, what else is needed, as long as it is related to research, I will try my best to satisfy it." Xia Duo attaches great importance to the research of permanent magic, so naturally he will not hesitate to support it.

"No need, no need!" Tilak accepted it as soon as he knew it was good, and at the same time made a promise, "I will definitely produce the results as quickly as possible!"

"Don't worry, be steady!"

In fact, Xia Duo was a little anxious, but it was more of a worry about the future and the unknown, "Let's not talk about this, now take me to see your recent research progress."

"Oh, good, my lord, please follow me!"

Saying that, he led Xia Duo inside.

After mastering a new project alone, Tilak's residence and research room have changed places. The biggest difference between this research room and ordinary residences is that——

Both the general laboratory and the spell laboratory are of the highest standard!

This is a high standard that even Xia Duo himself did not use, and it is indeed a bit redundant for Tilak, but it also shows that Xia Duo attaches great importance to his project.

Coming to the inner room, this is a general-purpose laboratory with multiple movable standard test benches. The current layout here is "冂" shape, and the center is for synergistic resonance to cast spells.

At this moment, the experimental bench is full of various materials, only the innermost experimental bench facing the door has an area of ​​an alchemy circle, but it can be messy.

Tilak's research is actually not used much for the alchemy circle.

Generally speaking, there are two ways to make magic items. One is through [Magic Constancy], but this method has a higher threshold for operation, at least a high-level mage is required.

The other is to connect and fix the strings of the magic net through materials such as mithril and gemstones, similar to magic scrolls, to form specific effects, which requires a lot of alchemy circles.

Tilak's Eternal Magic project combines these two manufacturing methods, requiring the use of magic materials while achieving some kind of constant effect.

But relatively speaking, there is no need to build a precise energy channel like connecting and fixing the strings of the magic net, and there is no high threshold like [Magic Constancy].

Xia Duo's opinion on this kind of magic item is that it is a monkey version, not high in quality, and not very stable, but it can be used. The most important thing is that it is low in price and easier to popularize.

At the same time, it is easier to update and iterate.

Moreover, the development and progress are also very impressive, further adding sophisticated energy channels, while ensuring stability, it also has the variability of [Magic Persistence].

But it’s still too early to talk about the future. Let’s take a look at the progress of Tilak first. Thinking of the plans mentioned in the application document for the Tilak project, Xia Duo can’t help but look forward to how far they have achieved:

"Tilak?"

Tilak understood immediately, ran to the innermost place in two or three steps, picked up a face-sized mirror from the experimental table, and handed it to Xia Duo as if offering a treasure, "My lord, this is the most successful magic item so far!"

Finished product so soon?

Xia Duo took the mirror and looked at it. From the surface, it was the most common silver mirror. It was shaped by the alchemy circle, and there were many seemingly inconspicuous mithril lines distributed on the mirror surface.

Under the magical vision, these mithril lines are not completely connected to the strings of the magic net.

It looks like a scrap product.
