Chapter 69
This was completely different from Adam's experience of acquiring rune sets from the library and storing them in the thread. This new set of rune sets was created by Adam himself. It went straight into Adam's soul instead of staying in the thread.
Adam's soul benefited greatly from this. A gentle, high-level energy that Adam could not explain or express appeared in Adam's soul out of thin air. This energy was different from the inert Ether and the highly active magic power. It was a special kind of energy that was in between the two.
The energy began to seep into Adam's damaged soul. The internal injuries caused by the Soul Tearing spell were healing at an extremely fast speed.
"Is this the feedback of the world?"
Adam could not help but float in the air. At this moment, his body and mind felt extremely happy. Unlike the hysterical, drug-like feeling when he accepted the negative energy to level up, this kind of happiness was healthy and sunny.
After a short period of time, Adam's internal injuries were completely healed. He even had a feeling that as long as he remembered this feeling and continued his research in this direction, he would be able to level up very soon.
However, Adam suppressed this desire. He knew better than anyone that he had just verified the existence of electric current.
Through the experiment, Adam discovered that magic power was a kind of elemental and omnipotent medium. Under the control of a sorcerer or an apprentice, this medium could materialize any element. In the experiment just now, the mithril room was a circuit. The Ether environment formed an electric field, and Adam activated his magic to strengthen the electric field. The air and magic power were instantly ionized and directly formed into conductors, and then the electric current was generated. During this period of time, the electric charge was consumed or neutralized, emitting light and heat, and displaying a great power.
This was the principle of the current apprentice-level electric magic. In essence, it was just an application of static electricity.
Of course, Adam would not be willing to use static electricity as the foundation to level up as a sorcerer. He treated the result just now as a small reward in his final goal. He remembered it in his soul and threw it to the back of his mind. When he came back to his senses, he immediately wanted to continue the experiment.
However, obviously, it would not work for the time being.
Not only were the injuries on his body serious, but there was also nothing intact in the room after being plowed by the violent electric current.
At this moment, Adam heard a loud knock on the door. "Adam, how are you? Open the door! "
Adam fell from the sky. The moment his feet touched the ground, pain and weakness washed over him like a tide. He scanned his entire body and found that his body, which had not recovered from the destruction of a large number of tissues, had new injuries added to it. This time, he would need to spend more energy stones.
James heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Adam open the door and appear in front of him. As for Adam's injuries, he wasn't surprised at all. It would be strange if he wasn't injured when the energy went berserk.
"You … Forget it. I don't know what experiment you're doing, but it's really too dangerous. The level of the laboratory isn't enough to support that level of evidence. It almost exploded just now." James sighed. He carried Frank, who hadn't recovered yet, to the front and said, "Take a look at him."
Adam reached out and patted Frank's body, absorbing the external electric current in his body. Frank instantly returned to normal. After getting up, he quickly left Adam's side and looked at him with lingering fear. "What the hell is going on? That feeling of numbness just now was too uncomfortable. I couldn't control my body at all. Even the mechanical body stopped working. "
Adam's mind moved slightly, and the crackling sound of electric current rang out in the laboratory again. Frank and James seemed to be startled. They suddenly raised their Psychokinetic Barrier and looked at Adam vigilantly.
"This is the result of my recent research. I call it static electricity."
Adam didn't continue to explain. In the contract they signed with Adam, the content of sharing knowledge only included meditation. Adam didn't have the obligation to tell them his latest research results.
The two didn't ask any more questions. Based on the feeling just now, they knew that Adam must have come up with some amazing results. This also meant that it was private and had great value. Asking more would be tantamount to having bad intentions.
.....
Seven days later, the Devil, who was indulging in debauchery outside, suddenly felt a call from its soul. The hand that was holding the wine glass paused, and then it chose to ignore the call and continue drinking. However, before it could taste the taste of the wine through its simulated taste organ, a tearing pain came. It couldn't help but scream and spit out the wine in its mouth. The two female apprentices gathered around it were shocked.
"Garfield, what happened to you?" One of the female apprentices asked.
She was really worried. After a few days of interaction, she had a very good impression of this strange apprentice called Garfield. After all, among the apprentices, there weren't many who were so humorous and charming.
Garfield was the name the Devil gave itself. With its innate ability to bewitch, the Devil was easily welcomed by the female apprentices. Although it knew that it couldn't really do anything, it still liked this feeling.
The frequency of the pain was getting higher and higher. The Devil showed a difficult smile and said, "Ladies, I'm sorry. It seems that I can't continue with you today. I have something to do, so I'll be leaving first. See you next time."
The Devil had accumulated an infinite amount of anger along the way. It believed that it had saved Adam. Otherwise, Adam would have been killed by the Archmage. It felt that it could use this merit to obtain a higher status. At least it shouldn't be like a lowly slave that could be ordered around.
The Devil had the right to enter the laboratory directly. It pushed the door open and shouted at Adam, who was sitting in the laboratory with his head lowered, "Even if we have signed a master-servant contract, I think you should at least show some respect to your savior …"
Adam raised his head, and there was a flash of lightning in his eyes. The Devil felt an unprecedented pressure. In an instant, it swallowed all the words it was about to say. It looked as funny as a rooster that was being strangled.
"Hmm?"
The Devil quickly adjusted its attitude and put on a flattering expression. It said to Adam, "Oh, it's nothing. I respect the great master. Your loyal servant is willing to listen to your orders at any time."
Because Adam had unilaterally cut off the soul connection, the Devil couldn't sense Adam's situation. When it saw Adam, it found that Adam had recovered and was even stronger. It screamed in its heart, "My freedom, my fair contract, the symbiotic contract!"
It suddenly remembered that Adam could read its inner thoughts. It suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and its tone became even more submissive. "Master, master?"
"How much have you mastered the negative energy?"
The Devil was stunned. It only used the energy as a medium to materialize and played around every day. It didn't train at a deeper level at all.
"This, that …"
Adam gave it a heavy blow, then got up and said to the Devil, who was lying on the ground and couldn't even maintain its body, "I'll give you three days. If you can't master the way to use the negative energy in three days, I don't think you want to know the consequences."
After Adam turned the results of the experiment into runes and integrated them into his soul, he finally understood what James meant when he said that the Mage Armor would have a strong personal bias after incorporating his own knowledge.
After that day, even if Adam didn't deliberately guide it, the Mage Armor built by Psychokinetic Meditation was constantly changing. It gradually had an electric nature!
This change was subtle. Adam's knowledge of static electricity was constantly trying to communicate and interact with the Psychokinetic runes, changing the nature of the originally simple Psychokinetic runes.
Seven days ago, when Adam found out about this matter, he was immediately attracted to it and began to devote himself to Psychokinetic transformation. Today, he finally had a preliminary result. He immediately thought of the negative energy magic that had hurt him, and then he remembered the Devil that he had almost forgotten.
Adam was very dissatisfied with the Devil's behavior of wasting his time. If the Devil still couldn't satisfy him after three days, he didn't mind teaching the Devil a painful lesson.
After returning to the mithril room, Adam took out a magic power test target from his dimensional pocket and began to experiment with his magic.
Now, he didn't need to deliberately construct runes to use his apprentice-level electric magic. He only needed to activate the Ether to form mana and use the Psychokinetic Electricity to guide it, and he could immediately cast a spell.
Streaks of lightning appeared out of thin air and hit the target from all directions. The target immediately showed a number, ranging from one to forty when Adam used all his strength.
Through his understanding, he knew that this low-level test target was specially designed for apprentice-level use, and the limit was fifty. If the number was exceeded, the target would be broken.
Adam didn't give any names to these streaks of lightning. That would be meaningless. Adam believed that he could soon surpass the use of static electricity and reach a higher level. By then, static electricity and electric current would be nothing more than appearances.
After testing the electric magic, Adam casually sat on the ground with his legs crossed.
Now that he was familiar with the use of static electricity, was it time to experiment with the real compound magic?
Without hesitation, Adam immediately constructed the runes for the basic fireball spell. A burning orange fireball appeared in the air, and then Adam began to attach electric current to it.
After a while, a flashing fireball appeared. It looked extremely dangerous. Adam shot it at the test target, and the number on the target was seventeen.
Adam frowned. This result could be said to be a success, but it could also be said to be a failure. He had only attached electricity to the fireball. This was like using two spells at the same time. It was still very far from the true compound magic he had imagined.
Next, he tried to attach electric current to other low-level spells. The results were similar. Although the power of the spells was increased to a certain extent, there was no qualitative leap.
