Chapter 689 Dragon's Imperial Law Anti-Magic Field
It's no wonder that Xia Duo's heart is hot. In the magical world, what is more exciting than "Magic Immunity + Object Immunity"?

Longevity and eternity may be, but if there is no strong self-protection ability, then even if you are really immortal and eternal, it is just a flower in the mirror or a moon in the water, which will shatter at the touch of a finger.

If "magic immunity + material immunity" can really be achieved, then Xia Duo will be so happy.

But it was enough to be excited for a while. After calming down, Xia Duo felt that he should not have too much expectations, lest the greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment.

It's better to treat it normally, anyway, the ability of the bloodline has been determined, and the rest is to discover it, know it, and control it.

Thinking of this, Xia Duo simply came to Niya's magic laboratory to use the environment here to study his own abilities.

……

In the field of human body research, Xia Duo is not good at it. He simply conducts experiments based on his past cognition and experience.

For the physical defense test, he took out a small knife and tried to cut and stab his skin from light to heavy.

Of course, he didn't want to really hurt himself even if it was to test the bloodline ability, he just tasted it and stopped, and he could still grasp this point.

Primarily qualitative, not quantitative testing.

The results of the experiment surprised Xiaduo. When the knife approached his skin, as he felt a little resistance in his heart, the connection between the skin and the strings of the magic net quickly changed.

It becomes more regular and full of rhythm, as if a kind of magical effect created naturally.

On the real level, the knife was resisted by the skin, and a thin invisible force field extended from the body, resisting the knife abruptly.

Xia Duo continued to use force, and the knife pierced through the force field like a bamboo, drawing a very shallow white mark on his skin.

"As expected of a pure gold knife that can pierce dragon skin!"

Xia Duo was not too surprised that the knife could pierce the force field. Either the spear or the shield would always be at a disadvantage.

At the same time, he could also see that his skin was quite different from the dragon's skin.

The defense of his skin lies in this invisible force field, and the dragon skin itself has quite strong defense.

This is evidenced by the distinctly different hand feel when swiping.

Of course, Xia Duo didn't continue to cut the skin deeply, which doesn't make much sense. Even if his skin is not inferior to dragon skin, can he still peel his own skin to make boots!

As for the more specific defensive test of the force field, he is not going to continue it in a short time. One is that he is not yet familiar with the bloodline ability, so the test cannot be complete, and it will not be too late to test it when he is familiar with it.

The other is, no matter how strong the defensive effect of this force field is, it will be too late when the day comes to use it.

He would rather never use this force field for the rest of his life than end up in a situation where he had to rely on it to earn his life in the end.

After simply testing the physical defense, Xia Duo continued to test the magic defense ability.

In fact, it is unnecessary to test this, because there is no fixed standard for magic defense ability, because many harmful spells are not displayed in the form of energy and elements.

For example, the very common [Magic Missile] uses an invisible physical force field to hit the target, which can basically be regarded as physical damage.

At this time, magic resistance in the usual sense will not play much role.

There are even many harmful spells that allow the target to function by itself, such as draining the air around the target, covering the target's mouth and nose, and exiling the target to the sky, deep sea, or even a different plane.

Can there be normal magic defense in this situation?

After all, spells do not directly act on the target, but change the environment, change the space, and create special situations to cause damage.

The reason why Xia Duo continues to test is actually thinking whether the magic immunity will be manifested in the form of breaking spells.

Breaking spells is a big category, basically as long as it is related to the integrity or continuation of destroying magic, it can be called "breaking spells".

The most typical one is [Dispelling Magic], a string of magic nets that smoothes the area where spells occur by forcibly creating a magic suppression field, and "breaks spells" from the root.

Others, such as spell counteracting in real-time battles, can also be regarded as breaking spells, although it is only a way of spell countering, not a specific spell.

What goes deeper is the famous [Anti-Magic Field], which is similar to the magic-suppressing field of [Release Magic], but it is more thorough. It not only completely smoothes the magic net, but even the energy flowing in it will stagnate.

In Xia Duo's view, only such ability can be regarded as magic immunity, otherwise, only hard resistance is considered magic immunity, but it is just rough skin and thick flesh.

The specific test is also very simple. Xia Duo summoned a group of fire elements in a dispersed state. If it is compressed and supplemented with an explosive effect, it will be [Fireball].

[Fireball] itself can be dispelled and can be countered, but the effect of [Fireball] cannot be dispelled after it erupts. After all, it is just a momentary elemental eruption, which is essentially a normal flame and has nothing to do with magic.

Xia Duo is not a masochist, of course it is impossible to test himself with [Fireball], he simply summoned a mass of dispersed fire elements.

If nothing is done, they will eventually dissipate in the confrontation with the normal environment of the main plane, or re-enter the magic net. In short, it is impossible for them to exist stably.

Their appearance didn't bring much trouble to Xia Duo, and they just slightly increased the temperature of the surrounding environment in a diffuse state.

Xia Duo put his hand deep into the fire element, and felt nothingness. Only a faint warmth reminded him that the place where he put his hand at the moment was a fire element.

This kind of performance is not surprising, even if ordinary people put their hands in it, it will not cause any harm.

Perhaps this is the so-called elemental resistance, but this is not Xia Duo's purpose.

Speaking of which, he does not have the ability to directly manipulate the fire element, the existence of this group of fire elements is based on Xia Duo's spells, and when he tried to imitate the resistance of the previous experiment, the situation suddenly changed——

The group of scattered fire elements that existed relatively stable just now disappeared without a trace, and the foundation of their existence was destroyed!
Under the contrast of body sensations, Xia Duo even felt his hands were a little cold, but at this moment he couldn't care less about body sensations.

He quickly took off the [Concentration Ring] on his hand and held it in his palm, while constantly trying to control the reappearance of the invisible force field on the surface of his body.

The new ability is not easy to control, especially when there is no real threat, but Xia Duo quickly overcomes these small problems.

A moment later, in the magic vision, he found that the condensed magic net strings on the [Concentration Ring] were forcibly opened, which meant that the magic ring was invalid.

I couldn't help but feel happy, but with this distraction, the force field disappeared again, and the strings of the magic net on the ring quickly and automatically wove a delicate and complicated structure until they returned to their original state.

"It seems that this new ability can't really destroy magic items, it only temporarily suppresses magic."

Xia Duo breathed a sigh of relief, of course it would be nice to be able to destroy magic items, but it would be bad if it was him, at least it would be inconvenient.

He now has many magical items with him at all times, and it would be a waste of money if these items could be destroyed at any time.

And in his vision, magic items will definitely be quite popular in the future. If he becomes a human flesh destroyer, he doesn't know how much money he will spend in the new era!

This situation is very good now, moderate but not excessive, which is in line with Chateau's philosophy.
