Lord of Arcane

Chapter 485 Encryption Spell Twin Mark
In fact, the arcane empire of the projection plane did not solve this problem either. They chose to encrypt the communication array to save users from trouble.

However, if Xia Duo wants to adopt this method, the design of the communication magic weapon will become very complicated. Generally speaking, the cost of the encrypted version of the communication magic weapon will be several times more expensive than the non-encrypted version.

In fact, the best way is for the authorities to build a communication array and keep the encryption process in the communication array, but in Netheril's situation, it is difficult for all parties to cooperate.

The popularity of communication is conducive to the dissemination of knowledge, which is not necessarily what everyone wants to see, and Xia Duo wants to minimize the difficulty of using it for users, so as to make this communication method easier to flood.

As long as the threshold is low to a certain extent, even if the government does not promote it, spontaneous exchanges among the people will soon flourish.

……

Another three days passed quickly. On this day, when Xia Duo was communicating with Niya, he was still thinking about the issue of information encryption. He accidentally mentioned this matter. After receiving the news, Niya immediately replied with a wordless message. smiley.

The message forwarded through the Tower of Time can also transmit sound and video. Niya's silent expression made Xia Duo a little confused.

But soon, Nya's voice of explanation came again, "It can be encrypted with the [Secret Imprint], and a similar spell has already appeared in the Giles Tower."

[Secret imprint]?
At this time, Xia Duo's thinking suddenly opened up, perhaps because he is a time traveler, so when considering problems, he will immediately choose the routines on the earth. In the quagmire of the algorithm, there is no way out.

But in fact, it is not difficult to find an encryption method that is simple in form and difficult to break in magic, but Xia Duo has never seen [Secret Imprint] encryption, and has no corresponding concept at all.

Before, the [Secret Imprint] he knew was nothing more than a personal imprint, no matter how complicated and exquisite the design was, it could still be imitated.

In the game on Earth, for the sake of gameplay, there is a setting that personal imprints cannot be copied or imitated. The reason is pushed to the goddess of magic, who is in charge of supervision. Forging someone else's imprint will be cursed.

But in the real world of magic, the Goddess would not be so boring as to be a personal imprint administrator of a group of mortals. Her domain was magic nets and magic, not order.

It is possible for the Lord of Radiance to do such a thing, but the problem is that Xia Duo has never heard of such a situation.

But if the god factor is put aside, can the caster himself design an encryption system derived from the [Secret Imprint]?
The answer is of course yes. Didn't Niya say that Gilles High Tower already has such spells.

Without the permission of Gilles High Tower, Niya couldn't directly provide Xia Duo with specific details of the spell, but after further communication between the two, Xia Duo understood the design principle of this encryption spell.

One party must hold the other party's secret imprint before it can be encrypted, and then the encrypted information is sent out to be decrypted by the other party.

The information here is not the information transmitted through the communication circle or [communication technique]. In fact, most of the time it is real objects, such as confidential documents, secret items and the like.

And once the information is transmitted, the other side's secret imprint held by the caster will disappear.

In layman's terms, in fact, the other party prepares a lock and the corresponding key, first gives the lock to the sender, and keeps the key for himself, and the sender writes the letter, adds the lock, and sends it out.

After receiving the locked letter, the other party unlocks the lock with the key left before and gets the letter.

In Xia Duo's view, this encryption method is very primitive and cumbersome.

Of course, in practical applications, many locks (arcane imprints) can be prepared in advance, but the fact that arcane imprints are consumables has not changed.

If the two of them are separated from each other, or even in the same world, and at a critical moment in the conversation, they suddenly find that the secret imprint is gone, then should they chat directly next, or should they find a way to get the secret imprint first?

The actual use experience is very bad.

There are many encryption concepts on the earth, and this kind of direct lock encryption is very primitive.Furthermore, the key lock can be changed into a coded lock, without the need for one party to send the lock in advance, and it is only necessary to pass the code before passing the confidential information.

Of course, you can go a step further and agree on a password in advance.

Xia Duo's attack was naturally the latter's idea.

……

After breaking off contact with Niya, Xia Duo's mind was full of inspiration.

First of all, [Secret Imprint] is different from the "key" on the earth, it actually has the functions of "encryption algorithm" and "key" at the same time.

This can make the encrypted form easy, but difficult to actually crack.

The first step that Xia Duo needs to do is to redesign the encryption spell of Gilles Tower into a version that does not consume the [Secret Imprint]. The original spell itself has nothing to say. For Xia Duo, it is just an inspiration. enough.

Not to mention, Niya also provided some specific ideas.

Xia Duo is sure to restore it completely. Although there may be differences in details from the original version, the principle is the same, and there is no difficulty in itself. The key lies in the inspiration of "encrypting with the secret imprint".

With inspiration, not to mention Xia Duo, he is a novice mage. As long as he has a certain foundation, it is possible to develop similar encryption spells. Directly research a version that does not require the consumption of arcane imprints.

Xia Duo, who was born on the earth, of course does not have the solidified thinking of the Naithers. He may have some solidified thinking on the earth, but the longer he stays in the magical world, the more flexible he will become.

And with the wealth of two worlds, he must be able to perform even better.

……

Two days later, Xia Duo completed the design of the Encryption spell, which is at the Level 1 level, and the name is [Encryption].

Of course, encryption spells are a system, a set of spells, and the corresponding inverse transformation, which is called [deciphering spells], which is also at the first level.

Now, Xia Duo is designing a brand new [Secret Imprint].

The so-called consumption of the [Secret Imprint] is actually sending the [Secret Imprint] back to the sender, which is equivalent to the consumption of the [Recipient's Secret Imprint] held by the sender.

This is because when decrypting, if there is no corresponding [Secret Imprint], the recipient cannot unlock it. (The arcane marks cast by individuals cannot be kept exactly the same every time)
Perhaps this is why Gilles Tower developed such a "lock-sending" encryption method.

Then, at this time, there is a need for a [Secret Imprint] that can appear in the hands of both the sender and the recipient at the same time. Xia Duo can't achieve an effect similar to "quantum entanglement" for the time being, but it can be approximated.

It is enough for two identical arcane imprints to appear in one cast.

In Xia Duo's vision, the use of communication instruments in the future will be similar to "adding friends on WeChat". The same arcane imprint.

In the future, the communication between these two people can be encrypted or decrypted through this [Secret Imprint].
