Chapter 945: The New Witch Group (Part II)

To put it simply, the substance that can be stripped from a piece of the whole can be traced back to the whole itself, and a large number of its convergence points can also be found through a certain trace element.

For the Sleeping Island Witch, this is undoubtedly a kind of survival ability, such as the ability to lead everyone to a stream or lake with a drop of fresh water in her hand, or the location and size of a fruit grove based on the pits remaining in animal waste.

Because of her ability to the team, several Witches of the Eastlands gathered together to form a close-knit group.

However, in Roland's eyes, "tracing back to the roots" is undoubtedly a guide to discovering natural resources, and the versatility is even more powerful than Sylvie's magic eye.

The reason is simple, Sylvie's mana cost increases exponentially when she sees through the strata, and the distance is greatly reduced, and she is still capable of dividing ore layers for the North Slope mining area, but once she switches to veins buried deep underground, she can't do anything. In addition, even if it is a shallow resource, it is difficult for her to distinguish the type and scale of the target, at most she can only say that there is something underground, but she can't say what it is.

Azima has no such concerns at all, not only can accurately locate a single resource, but also clearly know its reserves. If used in conjunction with Lucia's purification powers, it may be possible to move the entire periodic table onto the Grey Keep map.

When Roland studied geography, he was most impressed by a map of the country full of various resources, and now that the Grey Castle had achieved nominal unity, he should also work in this direction to expand the source of raw materials to the whole country, even to places such as Dawn and the Fertile Plains.

But even if Aqima is unwilling to help, it is not an irreparable thing for Neverwinter, after all, resources will not run, as long as he is given enough time, he can always achieve this goal.

Doris's "demonization" is different.

Limited by the lack of means of observation, he did not even enter the door to the study of magic, and the only way to better control it was by witches.

Demonization is such an incredible ability.

Wendy's description in the book is that it can cause the magic attached to the dead to form a cycle, thus greatly slowing down the exhaustion, making it seem to have life.

Roland had reservations about this assessment, knowing that it was a habitual saying that a witch's mouth could not possess magic in the mouth of dead things—and while this law would be in effect in most cases, there was one exception, and that was the Stone of Divine Punishment.

Isabella and Agatha's joint experiments have shown that the Divine Stone does indeed have magical powers, or rather...... The ability to attract mana, which is an otherwise exclusive trait to the Awoken. When Isabella smoothed out the interference area of the Divine Stone, a tiny remnant of magic could be observed on its surface, but it only lasted for a few seconds. During the whole process, there was no third party to inject magic into it, so the remaining wisp of magic power must belong to the divine stone itself.

In other words, although the Divine Punishment Stone did not possess a high concentration of magic that could disable other abilities as he had previously speculated, it did contain magical power, but the amount was extremely rare. As for why the effect of the ability to isolate is still to be studied, Roland can at least be sure that the statement that "magic repels dead things" is not entirely true.

Considering that Isabella's adjusted Divine Stone would soon turn into a mortal stone, Agatha made a bold guess: the magic on the Divine Punishment Stone would still be drained, but it would be able to absorb new magic like a living being, forming a cycle, like the sand on the beach, absorbing the sunlight during the day and releasing it at night. Otherwise, it is impossible to explain that Isabella's abilities do not involve the structure of the Divine Stone, but completely change its nature.

She believes that the Divine Stone was "killed" by Isabella.

Wendy's statement clearly follows Agatha's conclusion.

Roland didn't care, he always felt that something like a divine stone vein was a dead thing, and the ability to breathe magic power had nothing to do with whether it was dead or alive, and the principle was not clear just because human beings knew too little, just like before the invention of the microscope, human beings knew nothing about the microcosm.

Therefore, in his eyes, demonization can also be said to be a kind of "divine petrification".

Of course, whatever the truth is, the effectiveness of this ability is unquestionable. Tests have shown that it can be applied to targets such as magic stones, runes, and enchanted items, so that the mana instilled in them is replenished by itself, that is, it is looped.

For example, a copper rod filled with magic power can generate electricity for five days, and when the Mystery Moon is holding a broken sword, the time can be extended to about half a month, but no matter what, the magic power it confers is always lost, and it will never stay on the enchanted object.

This means that even if Mystery Moon's magic level equals Anna's, it will only be able to multiply the Dawning 1 that is running at the same time several times. Not to mention large-scale use, it is not even enough to meet the needs of factory lighting and equipment operation.

The Dawning One, which has been demonized by Doris, can absorb the ubiquitous magic power on its own to replenish the gap in consumption, so that the magnetic pole conversion effect will take effect for a long time. While the gains and losses aren't exactly equal, the boost is impressive enough for a short-term enchantment.

It means that Mystic Moon will be freed from the job of charging and maintaining energy and will become an energy maker.

It also means that a stable power supply can be used in many places outside of the factory.

At the same time, there are many enchantment abilities that were originally extremely incomparable, and they will also be reborn because of demonization.

Even Agatha and Isabella were able to get their hands on a bunch of test items that resembled the Divine Stone, which would be of great benefit to further research into magic.

As for the shortcomings of the extremely long cast time, low efficiency, and the interruption of the magic cycle by the Divine Stone, it is nothing compared to the ability itself.

So a witch like this, Roland wants to stay anyway.

Come to think of it, he can only try to use the sugar-coated cannonball offensive.

- After all, he had never seen anything stronger than himself compared to seduction.

And the last 89-gauge thin wrist is as his name suggests.

The daughter of a jeweller, she was born to carve, not only with her slender wrists, but also with her hands, which can carve intricate patterns into her rings. After the ability was awakened, this talent has made great progress, not to mention the speed of portrayal, and it can also be used on any material.

At first glance, Anna's black fire can easily do this, but she is a genius who has advanced twice, and she is a high-level witch at the top in the federation, and she is no longer at the same level as the former.

One of the things that Roland likes about the thin wrist is that it can share Anna's workload, and precision manufacturing is never too many. On the Isle of Sleep, she may have been a top-notch craftsman polishing delicate ornaments for the nobility, but in Neverwinter, she can join other witches in advancing the times.
