Chapter 1035: Sweet Punishment, Iron Stone·Focus

South, the Tower of Time.
Before the alarm set by [Magic Moment] reminded him, Xia Duo naturally woke up from his deep sleep, but when he woke up, he woke up Niya who was sleeping with his arm in his arms.
The two looked at each other, Xia Duo didn't think anything, but Niya's face was instantly stained with a blush, and her eyes were a little dodging.
Xia Duo's heart moved, and she rolled over and hugged Niya, whispering in her ear, "If you forget to eat and rest next time, I will punish you!"
It turned out that yesterday after he attended the Orientation Night Banquet held for him by the Austrian and French Federation, when he returned from Seventon, it was already late at night.
But at that time, Niya still had no rest, and even had forgotten to rest. She had been studying in the study the information about the communication array and the mystery that Xia Duo gave her before.
It's really a waste of sleep and food.
In the eyes of most Nishite mages, this practice should be regarded as a normal phenomenon, but Xia Duo believes that time management is very necessary. When and what to do, it is best to plan in advance.
Only in this way can we always maintain a relatively good condition to deal with accidents that may occur at any time.
So Xia Duo gave her a sweet punishment, counted as a reminder.
He knows that Niya is actually quite self-disciplined, but the magical materials he provides are also extremely attractive to an arcanist who is interested in developing into the field of communication.
Instead, it was Xia Duo himself. If a bunch of plane-related materials appeared in front of him at this moment, would he also forget about sleep and food?
If it is just a hypothesis, of course Xia Duo can say that he will not, because he will plan the time very well, and he also has the memory tracing ability, which can be studied at any time.
But when that happened, he actually didn't dare to pack the ticket.
This is actually human nature, with various tendencies.
"But it would be a good choice to let Niya punish me by then!"
Xia Duo smiled inwardly, stroked Niya's smooth arms with her palms, then turned over and sat up and got off the bed.
"I'm ready for breakfast, hurry up!"
"Ok."
...
After breakfast, Niya continued to study the magic communication in the tower master's study on the top floor, while Chateau came to the spell laboratory.
Because I was busy punishing Niya last night, I hadn't had time to carefully check the set of Iron Stones that Master Congenio gave him.
It's not too late to watch now.
As a gift, these three Iron Stones were naturally not handed over directly, but also contained in a wooden box.
However, the box is just an ordinary box. When receiving the master gift box last night, Xia Duo knew that it contained three magic items. After all, ordinary substances could hardly stop the radiance of magical aura.
In other words, magical auras do not follow the laws of ordinary matter at all, such as covering and blocking.
Although it was just a quick glance at that time, Xia Duo knew that the gift was really not light. The three magic items all exuded a strong magical aura, almost comparable to [Pathfinder's Scepter].
"Let me see what you really look like!"
Xia Duo opened the box and saw three transparent gems of different sizes, shapes and colors of orcs lying quietly on the crimson flannel inside the box.
"This is Ironstone?"
Xia Duo picked up one of the round-shaped light blue gems. It was very light and could hardly feel the weight, but with a little effort, the hard texture was also true.
When he first came into contact with this blue gem, he received a message from the gem, which was left by the producer, about the use of the gem, and a brief introduction.
Of course, Xia Duo knew how to use it. After all, Iron Stone was considered a relatively well-known piece of equipment in Netheril.
As for the introduction-
The blue iron stone can provide the user with concentration blessing; the red iron stone can provide physical bonuses; and the purple iron stone can provide the ability to reverse spells.
Chateau took the blue iron stone first, so he tried to use it first.
Compared with conventional magic items that can be used at your fingertips, iron stones and other more high-end items need to be linked to the user before they can be effective.
According to the usage information prompted by the gem, Chateau linked the part of the open structure of the magic net string that was gathered and linked on the Iron Stone to himself. In just a moment, he felt his hands sink.
This gem actually has weight again.
Then Xia Duo threw the blue iron stone above her head, and it spontaneously hovered above her head. Through the water mirror, Xia Duo observed for a while, but could not see the specifics of the iron stone. The running track is regular.
However, he is indeed "equipment" with this gem, and the effect is amazing!
The string of the magic net before the eighth layer of the magic net has become extremely easy to operate. It is a high-level one. If he is equipped with an iron stone, he will definitely play magic out of control.
The power is too easy!
The focus effect attached to magic equipment actually strengthens the will, making it easier for the caster to operate the string of the magic net.
If the self-focused training does not fit the current state, it is easy to lose control.
Of course, Xia Duo is unlikely to get out of control now.
To become an arcanist, you must first perceive the soul, and perceiving the soul requires a very high degree of concentration, which to a large extent also improves the ability to control spells.
As for the eighth layer of the magic net, and after the eighth layer, Xia Duo can only be sure that the string of the eighth layer of the magic net is easier to operate than before the blue iron stone is equipped, and he cannot touch the subsequent magic net levels. Naturally unable to confirm.
However, as a high-end magic item that is usually only popular at the level of Archmage, Senior Arcanist and even Arcanist, Iron Stone can also provide assistance for spellcasting at level 9 or above.
Chateau was very happy to be able to obtain such a magical item.
There are three iron stones in a set, but there are not only three. In fact, each iron stone is an independent individual, and it becomes a "set" only because it is put together with other iron stones.
If you have sufficient financial resources and a wide range of channels, you can buy a dozen pieces at a time to make a "luxury big suit."
But Xia Duo was insensitive to such swagger.
...
Then, he took out the red iron stone from the box. This gem is roughly spindle-shaped.
However, the "belly" part in the middle is much larger than a normal spindle drum, and looks more like an oblong circle with pointed protrusions at both ends.
Compared to the blue iron stone before, this red one seemed to be inferior to Xia Duo.
He can only provide the user with physical blessings. After careful experience, he quickly discovered that the blessing provided by this red iron stone is almost negligible for him who has been awakened many times.
Later, Chateau broke the link with the red iron stone and received it in the box. He was going to give the red gem to Niya.
Finally he picked up the last purple iron stone.
If he said which of the three iron stones he valued most, it was undoubtedly such a purple iron stone with a spell reversal function.
The overall shape of this gem is a short prismatic shape, the upper and lower surfaces are regular hexagons, and the sides are six rectangles. Compared with the roundness of the first two gems, this gem is slightly sharper.
Of course, Xia Duo doesn't care about the appearance, what he really cares about is its function.
