The sages in his hometown once said,
As a general, he did not think about victory, but first thought about defeat, so he could not end in a hundred battles.
After traveling to the present, Xia Duo has often used this proverb to guide his actions.
Even "a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall" is also a concept that he believes to support. Of course, when it comes to principles and bottom lines, "even though ten thousand people will go forward" is also an easy choice for him. .
The light of wisdom of the sages in his hometown, even in this foreign land, always envelopes and supports him.
This time going to Evreska, tit-for-tat may appear, but Xia Duo is not afraid of the head-on confrontation under the international order of checks and balances under the public, and all he is worried about is the same—
Sudden and unforeseen conspiracy!
For now, his strength and even the strength of the Tower of Time and Netheril are not strong enough to make him ignore the conspiracy, so he must be prepared.
In terms of protection, Xia Duo relied on the ascending ring of the [Mage Armor] to reach the tenth layer of the magic net. At the same time, there are [Anti-Magic Domain] and [Spell Reversal] that can counter most magical damage.
Basically, unless an extremely over-limit force enters the arena, such as a god, or a ritual spell brewed by a high elf wizard for a long time in advance, it is unlikely that the entire main plane will be able to find the existence of instant killing him.
What he fears most is still being besieged, even if it is a siege initiated by an existence of the same level, as long as a certain number of high-level mages work together, it can pose a threat to him.
If there are any more restraints at the same level, it would be extremely difficult to get entangled.
Therefore, the first consideration for Xia Duo is to have the ability to leave at any time. If he can't leave at any time, then once he gets into entanglement, it may be the end of fate.
For a long time, Xia Duo didn't dare to be interested in harmful spells. Instead, he was very concerned about various restriction and anti-restriction spells, as well as runaway and anti-runaway spells.
Just because the human body is very fragile, once there is no magical protection, it only needs a poisoned dagger to scratch a point of the epidermis, which may lead to the end of life, let alone a steel knife with a hard top on the neck.
Xia Duo once obtained a series of melee spells from the Feld Spell Book, among which the more typical one is a spell named [Steel Body].
Can make the body of the caster as hard as steel, but still able to move freely.
But when such a spell encounters the [Anti-Magic Domain], it will lose its effect, and the human body will become what it was originally like.
As for the transformation of the body so that the pure physical body becomes as hard as the steel side, Xia Duo has never thought about it, let alone whether it is feasible, if it is transformed in this way, will the person still be a human?
This is beyond the scope of "prosthetics".
In fact, the use of human beings as a combat tool has always been inconsistent with Xia Duo's philosophy. The sages in his hometown once said that "a gentleman is not a different person, and he is good at something." Xia Duo deeply believes in this.
…
Among all the non-damaging spells, Xia Duo's favorite is the teleportation spell. This spell has almost established the core position of high-level mages in Netheril beyond ordinary people!
Without teleporting spells, high-level mages may be besieged and killed by ordinary people at will; without flying spells, even a group of ordinary militias can kill a middle-level mage without damage.
To some extent, mobility is the lifeline of the wizard.
Without mobility, the deterrent power of the wizard will be greatly reduced, and the consequences will be reduced from status to life.
Of course, this is only the state of survival of the mage in the classical society, if it is the caster in the magic civilization that Xia Duo envisioned, it is different again.
With reference to the earth, by then, the order will be strict, the legal net will be tight, the human factor will be reduced to an extremely low level, and everyone can be fully developed.
At that time, the order itself will be able to restrain everything, dominate everything, and promote everything, and civilization will no longer flourish and perish because of people.
The gap between civilizations is no longer determined by only a few high-level spellcasters, but more advanced and powerful magical creations.
Various beyond-the-horizon strike and protection methods will become a key element of competition among countries in the future.
As for now, although Xia Duo intends to promote the development of society toward civilization and toward order, it is still in the classical era at this moment, and the human factor occupies a very important factor.
Mobility still needs to be prepared as a core element.
What Xia Duo is preparing to make this time is the [Transport Scepter], whose main function is to break through the conventional plane blockade and transmit at any time.
In the past, he has seen other people use it with his own eyes, and the effect is very good, even in the chaotic magic net environment, it can be used normally.
According to his understanding, some more sophisticated manufacturers will even add a one-time burst mechanism to it, so that the [Transport Scepter] can still take effect when faced with some out-of-conventional plane blockade, protecting the user’s safety. Leave the scene.
Xia Duo hadn't seen many physical teleportation rods made by other people, and he didn't know much about the so-called one-time burst mechanism.
However, he can probably infer that it is nothing more than obtaining higher energy levels, causing the originally functioning magic circuit to explode beyond general efficacy.
Similar to the electrical appliances on the earth, increasing the current or increasing the voltage will cause the core functional components of the electrical appliances to operate abnormally, but such an outbreak is obviously detrimental to the electrical appliances itself and cannot be sustained.
After all, the rated power has been designed before the electrical appliances are manufactured.
In the same way, the transmission spell itself is similar to a functional circuit with a preset current. If you want to provide current, you must adjust the circuit, that is, the spell itself needs to be upgraded.
It can also be inferred from this that the actual producer of the teleportation scepter with a one-time burst mechanism may be more sophisticated in some aspects, but in essence, it is still unable to create a more advanced teleportation scepter. uukanshu.com had to make this "next" strategy.
The actual burst effect is not at all comparable to the conventional effect of a higher level.
…
Although Xia Duo has been in contact with the tenth level of the magic net, the contact time is still short, and it is too late to upgrade a normal 9th-level teleportation spell to 10th level.
Not to mention, the teleport spell required to teleport the scepter also needs to focus more on "swiftness" and "breakthrough" rather than "precision" and "stableness" in the selection of support element units other than core element units. ".
In actual use, it may just be a random transmission opportunity at a long distance.
As the Mithril was refined, Xia Duo quickly determined the plan—
He does not need a conventional transmission scepter, just one-time use, so in the design, directly use the high-power output energy derived from the tenth layer of the magic net, and the other elements still use the 9-ring level.
It's a broken version of 10th-level spell!
