Chapter 269 Learning is just the beginning
Looking at the time-stopping formation operating normally, Linn smiled.
He picked up a pebble from under his feet and threw it forcefully in the direction of the time-stopping formation.
The pebble flew forward quickly. However, when it flew into the coverage area of the time-stopping formation, it suddenly stopped in the air, unable to move forward.
After seeing this scene, Linn seemed to have thought of something. He raised his wand and pointed in the direction of the time-stopping formation.
"Expelliarmus!"
Lin En let out a low shout, and a ray of red light shot out of the air and flew in the direction of the time-stopping formation.
Just like the previous pebble, this red light was fixed in the air when it reached the boundary of the Time Stop Formation. The red light bloomed in the air, but it could not move forward an inch.
After releasing this disarming spell, Linn cast dozens of spells in succession, but these spells were all frozen in the air after entering the scope of the time-stopping formation.
"Master, if there is a wizard in this time-stopping formation, and we use magic spells to attack the wizard outside the time-stopping formation, will these magic spells frozen in the air continue to attack after the time-stopping formation fails? Flying out in the direction of the wizard? If so, then in the wizard's memory, these spells appear out of thin air. In this case, I am afraid that few wizards can react and respond. Bar?"
Linn asked.
Nico nodded with a smile and said: "Yes, in an ambush I experienced more than two hundred years ago, a dozen wizards were frozen in place by my time-stopping formation. And when After the time-stopping formation failed, these dozen wizards all discovered that dozens of fatal spells appeared from all directions and hit them in an instant. They had no time to react, so I cast them in advance. The curse kills!”
Lin En was awe-inspiring. Just as Nico said, when Lin En waved the magic wand to pull out the Sands of Time from the time-stopping formation, the time power that fixed the spell disappeared, and the dozens of spells were in accordance with the The planned trajectory continued to fly out, and smashed a big tree in the distance into powder.
Just as Linn was praising the power of time, Nico clapped his hands and attracted Linn's attention.
Just listen to Nico say calmly: "Now that you have learned the time stasis formation, let's start teaching the time cycle formation. The alchemy formation in the time cycle formation is roughly the same as the time stasis formation. You only need to learn fifteen new alchemical formations, and we will teach them directly on site."
In a certain sense, there is not much difference between the time cycle formation and the time stillness formation. After all, both are the use of time, but they respectively freeze time and continuously cycle what happens in it.
The operating principle of the time cycle array is that after time reaches a special node, the power of time retrieval is used to reset the time within a certain range to the original node, so that the time is between two special time nodes. Infinite loop between.
Nico explained the principle of the time loop array: "The principle of the time loop array is similar to that of the time converter. It can continuously reset the area within the coverage range to a certain time node, and after a certain period of time has passed, Then, it is reset again, and the cycle continues until the time power of the Sands of Time is exhausted!"
"Since the time loop array resets the time of an entire area, rather than taking the wizard through time, theoretically, the wizard will not have a previous cycle after the time is reset to the previous time node. Memory. In other words, unless the wizard can find a way to escape within a short cycle, the wizard will be trapped in the formation and start over again. However, the wizard does not inherit the memory of the previous cycle. Wizard, how difficult is it to find a way to escape in a short time?"
Nico said calmly.
Hearing this, Lin En asked: "Master, how long does a cycle last?"
Nico said: "This was set by the alchemist who refined the time cycle formation, but the length of a cycle also corresponds to the consumption rate of its time power. It also uses a Sand of Time as energy Source, if you set a cycle time of one minute, I'm afraid it won't even last half an hour; but if you set a cycle time of one day, then the time cycle array can even last for up to half an hour. One month’s time!”
Lin En said thoughtfully: "So, setting the length of a cycle is also equivalent to a gamble. If this time is too short, then the time that the time cycle array can last will also be very short; but if If this time is too long, then the wizard trapped in it will be at risk of breaking away from the formation within a cycle."
In layman's terms, this is like a mobile phone power consumption problem. If you clear the background and let the phone slowly stand by, then it will not be a problem to maintain the phone's power for two or three days; but if you open five or six large software at the same time, , if it hangs in the background and consumes power, then the phone may shut down in less than two or three hours.
Moreover, this time cycle array is not like a mobile phone that can be played while charging. It can only artificially replace the "battery" after the "power" is exhausted.
After explaining the basic principles of the time cycle formation, Nico began to teach the fifteen new alchemy formations.
Lin En was able to learn hundreds of alchemy circles in one night just by reading alchemy notes, let alone the step-by-step teaching of a great alchemist like Nico Flamel? !
In less than half an hour, Lin En learned the refining techniques of these fifteen alchemy arrays.
After learning all the alchemy formations included in the time cycle formation, Lin En tried to refine the time cycle formation with the help of Nico.
When it was getting dark, a normally operating time loop formation appeared in front of Lin En and Nico.
Looking at the results of his whole day's study, Lin En showed a satisfied smile again.
After learning that he was going to learn the advanced version of Time Alchemy this year, Lin En thought that he would have to learn it for at least a week or two, but he did not expect that he would learn it all in just two days.
Seeing Lin En's beaming look next to him, Nico chuckled and poured cold water on him: "In the field of time alchemy, learning is just the beginning. From now on, you have to come here every day to practice the time stilling formation and the Time loop formation until you compress the time for refining the alchemy formation to less than five minutes!"
