Episode 328
“The essence of this analysis magic circle is to analyze the fundamentals of the object within the range and transmit that information to the other two magic circles. It quickly completes the work of identifying and classifying the biological structure of all objects within the range and delivers it That’s why it took up the capacity of one of the great magic circles even though it is an auxiliary magic circle that is obviously important but has little effect on its own.”
Victoria’s explanation was difficult from the start.
“…Lia, briefly.”
“It means that there are a lot of useless parts in this magic circle. It’s like the stubbornness of geniuses who have to be thorough in everything.”
“That’s right! It’s easy to explain.”
After I understood it, a lively retort naturally came out.
However, Victoria’s eyes narrowed as she looked at Logan, and the wizards around her each looked at the ceiling or the wall.
It feels like you hear laughter even though no one is laughing.
Logan cleared his throat briefly in embarrassment and nodded as if to continue his explanation. Victoria let out a small sigh and continued.
“If the standard for distinguishing between enemies and allies is extremely lowered, magic that scans and analyzes the entire target creature can be omitted.”
“…Isn’t this a magic circle created to properly identify enemies? Is it possible to reduce it?”
Fortunately, Victoria seemed to have grasped the context correctly this time and continued speaking with a smile.
“As I said, this is a case where the talents of geniuses were wasted. There is no need to scan all biometric information to identify enemies. And compared to ancient times, there are too many people residing in Grand now. The power of the magic circle is for all of them. There is no need to disperse it.”
“then?”
“Using symbols. Equipment engraved with a ‘flame pattern’ of a certain size. All you have to do is change the vitality magic circle so that the magic only activates on the target who has it. On the other hand, the weakening magic circle…” ”
If you target the golden dragon’s emblem, It will work.”
Logan clapped his hands in admiration.
The emblem of the golden dragon, the symbol of the empire. Because enemy knights and soldiers will never give up their weapons with their symbols on them.
“Yes that’s right.”
“But the shape and size of the emblem could be different? Then, the classification…”
Engraving a pattern on the armor is at the discretion of the craftsman. It would be difficult for even the same craftsman to draw something exactly the same.
But Victoria’s answer to this was simple.
“Even if we take that into consideration and add additional analysis code for shape transformation, it will be much simpler than analyzing the entire living body. This means that there will be more room in the magic circle.”
“What do you mean?”
“This means that it is possible to utilize this auxiliary magic circle in other ways.”
“what?”
Logan looked at Victoria in surprise.
Not only can they restore the giant magic circle created by ancient great mages, but they can also modify it?
Seeing Logan’s surprised expression, Clayton suddenly joined in and boasted about his student.
“It’s true. With the ability to see mana and Lia’s genius, things I never thought of became possible.”
“Master, if you say that, Your Majesty is expecting too much.”
“I think that’s enough to look forward to?”
As Logan responded to Clayton’s boast with a smile, Victoria waved her hand.
“No, Your Majesty. For now, we are only at the level of slightly changing the purpose of the existing magic circle.”
Victoria’s face as she lowered her head in embarrassment seemed to be superimposed on Victoria’s childhood self.
Logan, who naturally smiled proudly, asked directly without further ado.
“Hmm. How exactly?”
“The vitality magic circle is already at its maximum efficiency according to my common sense. Concentrating the power on a few people will only put a strain on the body, so there is no reason to modify it. But…”
Victoria looked confident as she received Logan’s curious gaze. He continued speaking in a tone of voice.
“…The weakening magic circle is different. It is true that magic that weakens a large number of troops by a certain percentage is unlikely to have any effect beyond a decrease in condition for strong players above a certain level. Of course, it can be useful on its own, but if you work a little more, the enemy “It can be transformed into a form that restricts the strongest among them first.”
“…What do you mean?”
“It will be able to weaken even a superhuman’s power by more than 10%. The power that limits ordinary soldiers will be weakened accordingly.”
At those words, Logan felt goosebumps rising all over his body.
Desk bite, who has no combat experience at all, is like, ‘He? You might say ‘just 10%?’, but 10% was by no means a figure that should be disparaged.
Strength is reduced by 10%, speed is slowed by 10%, and senses are also dulled accordingly. It was a huge benefit that could widen the difference by more than one or two moves in a fierce battle between experts.
“It’s huge. It’s really huge! Then do we have to bring the imperial army into the castle and fight them? Hahaha.”
Logan was delighted with this truly amazing achievement, clapping his hands like a child without realizing it.
“Thank you for your hard work, Lia.”
“No, Your Majesty. It was all possible thanks to the help of my teacher and my brother-in-law.”
Clayton, who was smiling proudly next to those humble words, immediately joined in.
“It’s not good to be too humble, Lia. 80% of it is thanks to you, and we helped with the rest.”
“No, Master…”
Clap.
“Anything is fine. What’s important is that we achieved this result. Thank you all for your hard work.”
“No, Your Majesty.”
“If you suddenly do this…”
The wizards were embarrassed and bowed to Logan’s sudden lowering of his head.
Logan, who looked satisfied with the sight, looked at the magic circle that was emitting light again.
“But…”
An underground plaza where blue and white lights from five magic circles mix together to create a fantastic atmosphere.
However, the eyes looking at Mana showed from the beginning that the energy contained within it was not as great as it seemed.
“But what is the situation now? What is the situation?”
“We are checking again before installing the magic stone and operating the camp in earnest. We are just checking to see if there are any problems with our mana.”
“So does that mean we can activate this magic circle right now?”
“Yes. That’s why I reported it to Your Majesty.”
“Good. Then let’s do it.”
“yes.”
When Clayton nodded, Victoria, with a somewhat flushed face, ran toward the center of the magic circle. In her hand, she was holding a fist-sized magicite that glowed bluishly.
Everyone’s tense gazes focused and the underground square became quiet for an instant.
This is the moment when Victoria puts the magic stone in the center of the great magic circle.
Sweet.
Ugh.
Flash!
“Ugh!?”
Starting with a small noise, the magic circle began to emit a light that could not even be compared to before.
“Whose eyes.”
“Let me tell you in advance!”
“Hang in there! You’ll get used to it quickly!”
The entire underground plaza suddenly became bright as daylight, so even a small commotion soon gave way to an exclamation that was incomparable to the small commotion.
“Oh oh!”
“This is definitely….”
“Wow!”
Cheers rang out in the square.
“at las!”
“The ancient great magicians are resurrected!”
“We did it!”
A few people cheering.
Although it was unfortunate that there were only a few people with whom I could sympathize and rejoice, they were all truly happy.
“I can finally go home!”
However, when Greek said something that broke the pain in the middle, Clayton’s expression hardened slightly.
In the end, Greek, who was headlocked by Clayton, screamed, but even that only made people around him laugh for now.
Logan, who had a happy expression on his face as he heard laughter and exclamations coming from all over, immediately turned his gaze to Viktor next to him.
“It’s amazing. It’s not burdensome and my whole body feels energized. It’s definitely effective. What do you think?”
“I am the same as you, Your Majesty. I feel like I can do something for much longer than usual.”
Viktor, who has the ‘Endless Vitality’ trait, seemed to feel the effects of the magic circle more sensitively than Logan.
There.
“It’s amazing. If I exaggerate a little, I feel like I’m 10 years younger.”
Dwayne looked down at his hands and feet with surprised eyes and expressed his impressions as an ordinary person.
Logan said with a grin at the evaluation, which could truly be considered a high praise.
“Can you understand that it is only a month to use the highest grade magic stone?”
“Well, I can understand this. However, you just need to keep in mind that it cannot be installed in every castle in the front line as it costs a lot.”
“Those are the pants I expected.”
Even the Minister of Finance, who was constantly worried about the cost, was nodding his head with a look of fascination, but that was not all.
‘Well, it seems there are other effects besides what Lia explained. Is this that….’
After activating the magic circle, for some reason, I could see Victoria looking at the pure white magic circle with a blank expression.
The magic circle that the analysis is not yet finished.
Even Logan, who was almost ignorant of magic, now seemed to know the effects of that magic circle. So Victoria, who has similar eyes for mana, would have already seen the effect and was analyzing it.
‘I’ll let you know when it’s all done.’
Logan looked back at Clayton with such a satisfied face.
“This is cool. So now is it possible to use these magic circles somewhere other than Grand?”
“That too is possible as long as you have the time and materials.”
Logan’s fist trembled at that confident answer.
The final card prepared to deal with the Empire has finally come together.
‘Preparations are now complete. But you must not let down your guard. There are too many variables.’
Logan took a long breath to calm his excitement and continued speaking calmly.
“Thank you for your hard work, Lord Clayton.”
“No. Like I said, it’s more about Lia than me…? Huh?”
Then, as if confirming Victoria’s dazed state, Clayton awkwardly lowered the hand he was pointing at her.
Logan chuckled at the sight and patted Clayton on the shoulder.
“Thank you both for your hard work. Now, as soon as we are ready, we will set up magic circles at several key locations on the front line. If we can’t do it in at least five places, we are thinking about ten more, so please work hard for about one more year.”
Clayton turned his gaze back to Logan and asked back with an awkward expression.
“…10 places a year?”
“Are you having a hard time?”
“Oh no.”
Clayton, who momentarily showed his emotions, soon asked back with a serious expression.
“If that happens, we will be able to prevent the invasion of the empire that your Majesty mentioned much more easily, right?”
“Yes. It will be a great help.”
“Okay, let’s try.”
Logan smiled as he saw Clayton clenching his fists.
And that moment.
“Your Majesty! I found out the other role!”
With perfect timing, Victoria came running screaming.
“It’s related to this, right?”
Victory nodded vigorously at Logan’s gesture of patting his head.
“Yes. That magic circle is focused on clearing a person’s mind and eliminating supernatural powers that forcibly interfere with it. These techniques do not exist in current magic, so I can only interpret them now… How did you know?”
“Did you forget? I see what you see too. Moreover, my senses are sensitive.”
Logan chuckled and stroked Victoria’s head.
“Oh, that’s right. But there is one curious thing. The archmage who created this magic circle probably knew about beings like the Kassel Magic Tower.”
“Hmm?”
Those strange words brought Logan’s attention back.
“When I thought about the woman’s magic I experienced before, I definitely understood. This magic circle is a counter pattern that can crush the gray magic power. It seems like the magic of the Wizard School…”
Oh.
Logan’s eyes sparkled at that moment.
“…It could be so. Then is blockade possible?”
“It can’t be blocked completely. However, if a person is subject to the effect of this magic circle, even if brainwashed, it will be released soon.” An unexpected
discovery.
Logan’s face was relieved of one worry. A more satisfied smile appeared than ever before.
From that day on, another change began in McLane’s capital.
