Bloodline Wizard's Dragon Transformation Diary

Chapter 208 The caves and lightning in the valley, the different structures imprinted

According to the wizard Grell, the lightning struck this cave and then spread outwards, eventually manifesting as light that illuminated the spell's structure. His incomplete spell structure was thus imprinted.

Luo Ang glanced over and saw that under the blazing lightning, the soil and rocks near the cave had been scorched black by the lightning, as if they had been carbonized, which was extremely obvious and clearly visible.

There are nine such openings in this valley, located in different directions, four horizontally and five vertically. Although they intersect, they do not overlap, and they look like a cross.

The cave that Wizard Grell mentioned is the second one from the left on the horizontal line.

"Now, it's time to witness a miracle."

Luo Ang took a deep breath and began to channel his mental energy to connect with the mysterious and construct a spell model.

Whether it was due to the unique terrain of the Roaring Swamp or some other reason, when Luo Ang was sketching spell models in this valley, he always felt that the mysterious response to him in this valley was faster and more enthusiastic than in other places.

Even while he was still building the spell model, before the nodes of the spell model were completely drawn, the intense mystery had already gathered around the spell model, moving along the nodes of the spell model and pushing the spell model from incomplete to complete.

The moment the spell model was completed, a strange feeling arose in Loon's heart.

But he didn't have time to savor that inexplicable feeling; the mysterious magical structure was urging him to release the spell.

The next moment, a thunderous bolt of lightning struck the withered, dark cave entrance.

The tiny streaks of lightning immediately followed the opening and entered, spreading throughout the valley.

In an instant, the scattered lightning bolts emerged from the various cave entrances again, converging into one in the valley and transforming into a blazing light.

It's exactly the same scene described by the wizard Greer!

Luo Ang's gaze also lifted up in that instant.

The intense light was extremely brilliant, and in contrast to the darkness and miasma in the swamp, it appeared even more dazzling, like a sun shining brightly in the swamp.

When that brilliant light burst forth, the miasma in the valley seemed to be half swept away.

Having spent the past few days in the swamp, Luo Ang had become somewhat accustomed to its dark environment. Therefore, when the intense light appeared, Luo Ang's pupils involuntarily contracted; the stinging and burning sensation in his pupils caused tears to stream down his face.

He instinctively furrowed his brows, closed his eyelids, leaving only a slit, and squinted at the blazing white light screen through the gap in his eyes.

With this unique posture, his squinted eyelids seemed to act as a barrier, preventing the brilliant light from irritating Luo Ang's eyes.

At the same time, this made Luo Ang even more sensitive to the changes in the light.

The moment Luo Ang narrowed his eyes, it seemed as if a filter was added to his gaze.

Within the field of vision, the part of the unfolded light screen that wasn't intense enough became increasingly dim, while the truly intense part became increasingly dazzling.

In just a fleeting moment, that dazzling brilliance faded and vanished into nothingness.

With my vision closed, all I could see was darkness.

Although the blazing white light had faded, the traces left in Luo Ang's eyes after the light had shone through did not disappear.

It was a pitch blackness completely different from pure blackness.

The brightest part of the light, after it fades, reflects a deeper and darker darkness into the pitch-black field of vision than ordinary darkness.

Compared to the fleeting flash of bright white, the deeper black that remains in the eye socket leaves a more obvious mark and lasts longer.

After closing his eyes for two or three minutes, Luo Ang finally memorized the structure formed by the black dots. Then he took out his notebook and began to draw it according to his impressions and memories.

Soon, the incomplete spell structure appeared on the notebook.

This is the incomplete spell structure that Loen copied.

However, looking at the structure drawn in the notebook, Luo Ang always felt that something was not quite right.

After a moment's thought, he took out the sheepskin rubbing that Greer had made, unfolded it in front of him, and placed it next to his notebook, comparing the incomplete structure on the rubbing with the structure he had drawn in his notebook.

Upon seeing this, Luo Ang immediately straightened his back.

The two incomplete structures are almost identical, nearly the same.

but----

but!

Loon first unfolded the parchment scroll of the wizard Grell and carefully counted the spell nodes on it.

Thirty-one.

Then he opened his laptop and counted the spell nodes on it.

Thirty-two.

He blinked, somewhat incredulously, carefully put away both rubbings, then closed his eyes to rest for a moment before opening them again to count the spell nodes on the rubbings once more.

It remains the same.

A thirty-one.

One is thirty-two.

"No, is this even allowed?"

"A complete structure has thirty-one nodes, while an incomplete structure has thirty-two nodes."

"How can these be the same?"

Looking at the two rubbings in front of him, Luo Ang pondered for a moment, then simply copied the magical structure on the sheepskin rubbings into his notebook. He then tore the page out of the notebook and matched it one by one with the incomplete structure he had recorded.

At first glance, the two spell models, with different numbers of nodes, appear identical.

The second and third glances both showed the same result.

"Hey, I don't believe it!" Luo Ang placed the two incomplete structures side by side and smeared them from top to bottom with a pen.

No one else would dare to do that.

Imprinting a fragmented spell structure is no simple task.

Because human memory changes gradually over time.

After the wizard copied the first incomplete spell framework, he himself had a deeper impression of this incomplete spell framework.

Then, as he continues to make a second copy of the spell's structure, he will instinctively modify and adjust the content of the second copy based on his impression of the first copy, thereby distorting the subsequent copies.

The more recent the rubbing, the greater the distortion in the content.

This is especially true for rubbings that have no clear counterpart in the real world and are drawn entirely from the wizard's impression.

Generally, when wizards make rubbings without a clear physical reference, they will calm down for a period of time after making the first rubbing, banishing and hiding the memory of that particular scene from their minds before making the second rubbing.

Of course, some wizards, after making the first copy, can simply discard their own minds and make a second copy exactly the same as the first one.

However, wizards who are very clear about their own limitations and would never overcomplicate things are ultimately a minority in the wizarding community.

Therefore, the rubbing of the incomplete spell structure was more valuable than Loen had anticipated—other wizarding apprentices, even if they wanted to compare the differences in the rubbing, would never use such a method of directly destroying the rubbing to make a comparison and confirmation.

After all, these are valuable assets that need to be cherished.

This is especially true for things that require specific weather and location conditions to be printed.

But for Luo Ang, the value of this rubbing was the least important thing to consider.

He only wants to know one thing now.

Why do two rubbings have identical incomplete structures, but differ in the number of internal nodes?

Was he wrong?

Or was Wizard Greer wrong?

The pen strokes were like knives, and soon, the already incomplete structure became even more fragmented.

"Found it."

When he reached the seventeenth node, Luo Ang finally found the difference between the two rubbings.
