Chapter 394

The two gathered their thoughts and the illusion disappeared. Adam asked, "Why didn't you make them into illusion weapons?"

Wendy shrugged. "Because we couldn't do it. They're disobedient."

"This might be the only thing that mages have found that has a kind attribute in all these years. Whether active or passive, they refuse to hurt people. Illusions are just pure illusions and won't cause any harm to living creatures. "Wendy said.

"We tried to use them as amplifiers to increase the power of illusions, but their residual will of resistance was very strong. They didn't even hesitate to collapse. So we gave up. They're not that important anyway. We have many choices for amplifiers. "

"And to be honest, the energy of the second era is different from that of the third and fourth eras. Using them will cause a lot of energy loss. Rather than forcefully modifying them, it's better to store them as specimens."

Kind attribute, this evaluation was unique. Mages had their own principles, but they definitely had nothing to do with kindness. It was the same for creatures from other planes. They had to worry about their survival at all times, trying their best to seize the resources that could keep them alive.

No matter what the starting point was, the means definitely had nothing to do with kindness.

Adam couldn't imagine what the second era would be like with such a life form existing in it.

Skipping this topic, Wendy asked, "We found the engine. What are you going to do?"

The next thing to do was, of course, to test its ability to create a world.

This task took a long time for Adam and the other researchers. The more they delved into it, the more they discovered the wonders of this origin.

All the other origin, even if the life that was born was different and the rules that they formed were different, they were all within the same standard without exception.

But this origin was different. It could almost achieve anything it wanted. It could use illusions that could pass off as real.

Adam applied for a blank plane and moved the origin there. He then wrote a program on the surface of the origin to connect to his personal chip.

Dozens of researchers were scattered in all directions of the plane. Through the chip, their thoughts were connected to the origin. Suddenly, the plane presented all kinds of strange scenes. They didn't conflict with each other at all. As long as the mages thought of it, it could replicate it.

Even if Adam wanted to simulate the power of the true soul, it was the same.

This was a huge surprise.

Game engines were the core components of some pre-programmed editing systems or some interactive real-time image applications. These systems provided designers with various tools needed to write programs. The purpose was to allow designers to create programs easily and quickly without having to start from scratch.

The origin of the ruins really saved the project from starting from scratch and greatly saved the working time.

In Adam's original plan, the project team first needed to perfect M language, then use the perfected M language to write a rendering engine, physics engine, collision detection system, sound effects, scripting engine, artificial intelligence, network engine, scene management, and other programs in a blank source.

But now, in addition to the physics engine and collision detection, the ruins' origin had most of the above functions. It was very precise and perfect, far more convenient than upgrading from version 5.5.

More importantly, the time system it came with was excellent. It could run the timelines of countless dungeons at the same time, which was of great help to the work of accommodating relative time in the virtual world.

Even if it was so convenient, there was still an unavoidable problem.

The origin could be seen as a precise system. Through the research of the origin samples obtained from battles, sacrifices, and plundering, the mages found that the origin of the Fourth Epoch was mostly the same, or rather, they had the same source code.

The mages' research in this area had reached a very deep level, which could be seen from the constantly evolving origin of the mages' world.

However, the source code of the ruins' origin was completely different from the origin of the Fourth Epoch. Researchers could not find an entry point to crack it.

Although it was clearly open to everyone, it was expressed in a completely different way. It was the deepest fog that made people unable to figure it out.

The reason why it could be roughly used and why it could be connected to the personal chip by adding algorithms on its surface was because it was very 'kind' and allowed the mages to fiddle with it.

If they could not crack it, it could not be used. Firstly, the functions it currently displayed were not enough to build a large virtual world. Secondly, the mages would not be willing to send their souls to an uncertain platform. This was equivalent to handing their safety to a stranger. The true souls would definitely not allow it.

Seeing this, Wendy said, "Don't ask me. I don't have any good ideas. We have also studied this thing before, and the problem is the same. We have no idea how it is done. Previously, we felt that even if we understood it, it would not be of much significance. The illusion system is already very mature, so they have been ornaments for so many years. "

Adam asked, "There should be a team that specializes in the origin of the mages' world, right?"

Wendy nodded. "Yes, the World Guardians are experts in this field."

"Can we invite them to assist in the research?"

"Just apply with His Holiness Croft, but I think it's better not to have too much hope for them. The World Guardians are complete life forms of the origin. The information they carry is completely a reflection of the origin of the mages' world. Asking them to study the origin of the Second Epoch …"

Wendy was not optimistic, but Adam felt that it would still be useful. Every research should not be completely independent. After reaching a high level, things like drawing parallels could naturally be done.

However, more preparations were still needed.

"Joel." Adam called softly.

A Hyperdimensional Mage immediately came in front of Adam and said respectfully, "Your Excellency Adam."

Adam divided the researchers present into two groups. One group would focus on cracking the 'source code', and the other group would begin to create an engine based on the content of the origin of the ruins on a blank origin.

In this way, it would be best if they could complete the cracking, but even if they could not in the end, it would not be a complete waste of time.

His Holiness Croft seemed to have been staying in the origin space. Every time Adam's application was submitted, he would be met, and this time was no exception.

His Holiness was using his personal chip to check the newly collected data of the low-level mages. When he saw Adam again, he gestured for him to sit opposite him and said, "Within a day, a group of guardians who have studied the origin of the ruins will go to your laboratory, but their research ability is actually not as good as the researchers in your laboratory …"
