Saint Laurent Prison Warden

Chapter 6 Magic Transformation

Richard took a deep breath and said to Maher and the black-robed female police officer:
“Master Changren, and all the masters of the [Star-Moon Society], thank you for proving my innocence.

Please wait a moment. I will use tracking magic to find the [Venerable Saint].

Richard walked out of the cage and sat down cross-legged.

Richard knew in his heart that the exquisite "Tracking Magic" he mentioned did not exist at all.

"I don't have a wife or a girlfriend, so I don't need to catch someone cheating. Why would I have the time to do some tracking magic?

But it doesn’t matter if I don’t have magic, I can create one on the spot.

I did not lie. There is indeed my magic mark on Lolo's body, and that magic mark is indeed a part of my body.

However, my magic mark is not the baby in Luo Luo's belly, but a fragment of my soul!"

Richard couldn't help but recall the scene in the hotel room last week.

……

Lolo, wearing a nun's uniform, had sweat on the tip of her nose and a slightly red face. She knelt on the floor in front of Richard, looking up at him.

The look she gave Richard was very strange, one that contained desire, longing, resistance, and fear.

"Teacher Li, are we really not going to take a break? I can't hold on any longer."

Facing Luo Luo's plea for mercy, Richard acted extremely indifferent:

“Don’t you like it most when I use great magic to infuse your little holy light?
Huh? Huh? You can't hold on any longer? What a useless wizard.

You have to hold on even if you can’t! I don’t have that much time to wait for you to adjust slowly.”

Richard knocked on the bed and said:
"Listen carefully, what I am going to teach you next is Level 2 magic: Radiance!
Radiance is a new magic that I just researched last week. It can condense unsaturated light elements and greatly reduce the cost of producing [Holy White Stone].

Holy White Stone is a necessary resource for the Holy See to recruit [Holy Inquisitors], and the price of smuggling it on the black market is quite considerable.

Since the effect of "Radiance" is unique and can bring us huge profits, I did not submit it to the Mage Academy, but taught this magic directly to you.

Luo Luo, remember to learn the Radiance Technique as soon as possible after you return, and then teach it to Dean Kapa."

"I understand, Teacher Li." Luo Luo said shyly: "Teacher Li, is the Light Art difficult to learn?

If... I can learn the Radiance Technique, can you... give me a little... reward?"

……

……

The subsequent scenes were a bit blurry and Richard could no longer recall them.

He closed his eyes and thought:

“Although the female police officer told me that Mr. Kapa was dead, I didn’t believe it at all.

Good people don't live long, and disasters last for thousands of years.

Teacher Kappa is extremely cunning and has done all kinds of bad things. How could he die so easily?
Based on my understanding of Lolo, it would take her at least more than a month to completely master the "Art of Radiance" and reach a level where she can teach it to others - provided that Lolo was not acting and lying to me.

It has only been a week since Lolo got into trouble. Theoretically, she should not have taught the "Spell of Glory" yet.

The people in this world who know the art of radiance are most likely only Luo Luo and I!

I can create a magic based on the uniqueness of [Soul Frequency], specifically to track people who know the magic of "Radiance"! "

Richard sat on the ground, opened his magic book, and took out a large amount of magic materials and some simple experimental equipment.

"The scales of the Inkbone Fishman can be disassembled to produce three units of water element.

Coal, can be disassembled into one unit of earth element and two units of fire element
Dust of light spirit, ten units of light element.

Five fish scales = 15 [water], five coals = 5 [earth] + 10 [fire].

Balance.

Water and earth create the mud element, and water and fire create the steam element.

Five fish scales + five coals = five mud elements + ten air elements.

Ten air elements are mixed with ten light elements, pressurized, and then ghost powder is used as a catalyst to generate blank spirit elements. "

Richard's movements were extremely skillful. He did not use any weighing equipment, but the amount of each magical material he used was still just right.

In Richard's hands, he played with those complicated [magic materials] and [magic reactions] like regular building blocks.

After slight explosions, cool light effects and all kinds of dazzling magical changes, Richard finally mixed a small potion bottle that shone with silver light.

"Okay... add the magic memory and the second-level magic [Radiance]!"

Richard pinched the top of his magic book with his index finger and thumb, and pulled lightly, and pulled out a magic ball shining with white light.

He stuffed the magic ball of light into the silver potion bottle, sealed the cap, and shook it five times.

The turbid potion quickly clarified and eventually turned into a potion as pure as mercury - [Soul Potion: Radiance].

"what is this?"

The female police officer squatted beside Richard, looking at the potion in his hand, and asked vigilantly:
"Richard, you spent so much time preparing the poison, could it be that you are planning to commit suicide with it?
I'm warning you!
Although you have been temporarily released on bail, you are still a treason suspect of our Star-Moon Society and have been deprived of all your rights, including your right to life.

Without the permission of our Xingyue Society, you cannot die without permission. If you die without permission, we will think that you are committing suicide and take all inhumane measures to examine your body. "

Richard flatly denied:
"Of course not, this world is so beautiful, I haven't lived enough, how could I bear to commit suicide.

Besides, I dare not play any tricks in front of the permanent members of the Mahir Council."

He shook the medicine bottle in his hand and said to the female police officer:
“This bottle of potion is just the necessary material for me to cast magic.

If you don't believe me, you can drink a sip of the poison for me first."

Female police officer in black robe: ...

"Wait, you said it as if there was nothing wrong, but why do I feel it is so strange?"

"What's weird about that? Indirect kiss? It's okay, officer. I don't mind eating your saliva. You don't have to worry about me."

"Do you believe me? I'll let you drink my foot washing water. Richard, don't be so rude.

I... help you test the poison? ? Against Tian Gang! Richard, you really dare to think so.

Why don't you ask Mahir Changren to come and test the poison for you?"

Richard spread his hands.

"Masir Changren has no doubt that my potion is poisonous. Officer, if you have nothing to do, just keep an eye on me.

Don't worry, with Maher here, it won't be that easy for me to die."

"Tsk. So smooth-talking." The female police officer snorted and stood aside.

Seeing this, Richard took a deep breath, took out a pile of manuscript paper, lay on the ground, and began to draw a complicated magic circle.

"3rd level nature magic [Tracking]. There is a principle behind the existence of this magic.

Everything in the Yasa world is made up of elements, and the thing that connects elements is called element bond.

Element keys are generated by elements and are a natural property of elements. Once they appear, they are independent.

When two elements are pulled apart, the element bond breaks, causing the element bond to split into two halves - but the element bond itself does not disappear immediately.

After the element bond is broken, the two halves of the element bond must have a [natural mutual attraction] and will naturally attract each other, but this force is very weak under normal circumstances.

It's like a magnet. If the distance is too far, the magnet won't have enough attraction.

The essence of [Tracking Technique] is to locate by injecting magic power and amplifying the weak [natural mutual attraction] between the break of the elemental bond and another break.

It's like replacing a small magnet with a large magnet to amplify the attraction between the magnets.

The broken element bonds produce resonance, which can indicate direction and produce a tracking effect.

Therefore, when casting a tracking spell, one can use a torn piece of cloth to track another piece of cloth; or one can use a severed hand of a deceased person to track the deceased's other remains.

But [Tracking Technique] also has weaknesses.

Since [Elemental Bond·Natural Mutual Attraction] is very weak, the normal range of [Tracking] is extremely limited.

At the same time, since the [Element Bond] has the ability to self-repair, the broken parts of the element bond will gradually disappear over time, which means that [Tracking] cannot be effective on things that have been separated for a long time.

Due to these two limitations and the high difficulty to learn, Tracking is rarely considered a necessary magic by mages.

Only a very small number of detectives in the police station would choose to learn the magic of "Tracking".

[Tracking] is an ancient magic that has become outdated, but the principle of tracking can be used by me.

The soul of a mage also possesses a [Soul Key] that is very similar to an Elemental Key - it is called [Soul Background].

I personally developed the [Radiance], and my soul resonated with it when it was born. Therefore, the magic of [Radiance] always carries the [soul background] when I created this magic.

I can use the principles of tracking magic, change the element to soul, and create a new three-ring magic.

Use the [Soul Background] in me as a trigger to cause resonance of the [Soul Background] of all [Glory] magic, so as to find other people who have mastered the [Glory] magic!
Soul resonance is different from magic resonance. Soul resonance can be transmitted through the divine power network in the sky with almost no consumption.

Elemental bond is like a magnet finding a magnet, and soul resonance is like a satellite sending a signal to a mobile phone.

Therefore, the detection range of my new magic is the entire world!
However, [Soul Background] will gradually fade over time, so this magic cannot be effective on magic that was developed too long ago.

After a month, the soul background of all Radiance Techniques will disappear and will no longer be special.

The Radiance Technique was invented fifteen days ago, and there are still fifteen days left until the end of the month. It can still be used now."

Richard calculated carefully:

“Since this magic is based on tracking, the name must contain the element of tracking and must be related to the [Soul Background]. It is used to find other people who have mastered the magic of [Radiance].

Hmm... let's call this new magic [Magic Exposure], it has all the elements."

……

……

Richard concentrated on drawing complex magical lines with his quill pen.

These magic lines look messy and have no beauty at all.

Time passed by minute by minute, and in the blink of an eye half an hour had passed.

The black-robed female police officer finally couldn't help herself. She whispered to Maher, who was watching with great interest:
"Teacher, what is Richard doing?
This isn't a magic spell, is it? I don't think it takes so much preparation to cast a spell.

He is only a three-ring wizard, but the number of magic circles he draws is enough to support a legendary spell!

Is he stalling for time?"

"Hahaha." Mahir laughed softly. He stroked his beard and replied in a low voice:
"Richard is not casting a spell, he is creating.

He is trying to create a magic that can track down the Virgin."

"Creating new magic? Here?! In this basement with no conditions?"

The female police officer's eyes widened in surprise.

“How is this possible?
Teacher, in my impression, researching new magic is a very complicated and professional process.

It requires a quiet and safe environment, a large amount of expensive and complex experimental equipment, and a large group of extremely intelligent and talented wizards.

They need to first determine the name of the experiment, the purpose of the experiment, the content of the experiment, and the description of the experimental plan, and then go through a series of research processes to finally get the results.

Use genius to collide with genius, use wisdom to negate wisdom, exhaust the heart and blood of a group of wizards to unravel the unknown and determine magic from the truth.

During this period, there will inevitably be a lot of disputes, confrontations, rework, and even failures.

Even if all conditions are perfect, it still takes a long research and development cycle and enough luck for a new magic to come into this world.

This process is also accompanied by huge risks - the danger of failed magic experiments, which may even lead to the legendary wizard's regret.

In short, creating magic is a very dangerous and complicated process that requires the cooperation of many wizards. This should be common sense, right? "

"Hahaha."

Mahir laughed three times, then nodded with satisfaction and said to the black-robed female mage:

“Xingge, you are not a magic researcher, so you don’t know.

The study of magic is a very complex thing.

What you are talking about is the process of studying a [new] [magic] that has never appeared in history and has no trace to be found.

We call this process the Magic of Innovation.

[Innovative Magic] is extremely difficult and often requires the joint research of many mages to complete. Even a demigod who is good at magic research finds it difficult to complete [Innovative Magic] alone.

But what Richard used was another method of magic research - [Magic Transformation].

Find a magic trick that has been proven to work.

Use some small tricks to change one or two conditions for the magic to take place, and fine-tune another new magic without destroying the overall structure of the magic.

easy to say, hard to do.

For every magic to be established and released, its structure is extremely rigorous and complex.

Any slight change could cause the entire magic to collapse. If the wrong magic is released rashly, the caster may die at any time due to the backlash of magic power.

The danger of [Magic Transformation] is no less than that of [Innovative Magic].

According to common sense, magic transformation also requires an entire research team to work together.

But Richard is an exception. He has his own unique talent in magic transformation.

Xingge, you should know it best. In front of a true genius, common sense is just a toy. They can crush it at will. It has no meaning at all."
