My Cell Prison - Chapter 371
Chapter 371: Chapter 371: Magic Circuit
The moment the close combat mage, Cononing, was eliminated.
The two magic apprentices who used long-range magic almost retreated simultaneously.
At this moment, the yellow sand started flowing again.
Two large sand arms were formed on the surface of the yellow sand barrier, and an ‘Eye of Flowing Sand’ grew in the palms, completely locking onto the two of them.
The speed of the arms far exceeded the retreat speed of the two of them.
In a situation where evasion was impossible, the two magic apprentices could only resist head-on, trying to completely shatter the arms.
It indeed worked… but the effect wasn’t good.
Whether it was light magic or shadow spheres, whether penetrating or exploding, they could only shatter part of the yellow sand… The scattered sand would immediately merge back into the arm, reform its view, and in no way affect the arm’s movement.
Slap!
Firmly grabbed the two apprentices.
The invasion of yellow sand instantly disintegrated the magic shield on their bodies, eliminating them…
The seemingly difficult three-on-one battle ended just like that.
At the same time.
The barrier collapsed, dispersing into a pile of yellow sand.
This whole series of operations with yellow sand completely drained the seed energy in Han Dong’s skull… A strong sense of dizziness enveloped his whole body, and his consciousness scattered, causing him to suddenly collapse.
Of course… This was also Han Dong’s deliberate act to exhaust all his energy.
If he really could defeat the three top magic apprentices of [The Library] without a scratch… Not only would the teachers of the Library lose face, Han Dong would inevitably attract the attention of ‘those above’.
Information might go directly to the council.
However.
Changing the statement to “A student exhausted all his energy, defeated three magic apprentices in adversity, and lost his consciousness” makes it much better.
Of course…
Han Dong just integrated the ‘Hand of Undying Priest’ yesterday, having just activated the yellow sand system.
The series of yellow sand magic used earlier consumed energy at a terrifying rate… To be honest, Han Dong, who was enveloped in the yellow sand barrier, was startled by such a terrifying rate of energy consumption.
Before he fell and closed his eyes, Han Dong gave Dumps a sign, beckoning him to take care of the ‘aftermath’.
……
When the conscious Han Dong gradually regained consciousness.
He faintly felt as if he was in a natural and fresh magical domain.
Seed energy was being restored at 300% speed, and brain dizziness was substantially reduced.
When Han Dong gradually opened his eyes, he found himself soaking in a somewhat viscous warm light blue spring… Of course, all his clothes were removed, so that the solution could directly contact his body and enhance the recovery effect.
“You awake?”
There was another person in the current magic hot spring.
It was Dumps, the individual Han Dong signaled before he fell unconscious.
“This is the advanced resting area in [Magic Hub] that the deputy curator let us in.”
When Han Dong awoke.
Dumps slowly approached from the other side of the hot spring, slightly adjusting the single copper mirror on his face, staring at Han Dong’s thin body.
“Deputy leader, when did you learn sand magic?”
“Not long ago, I learned it due to a ‘fortunate coincidence’.”
The so-called ‘fortunate coincidence’, Dumps naturally understood the meaning and would not inquire about how Han Dong learned it.
“Impressive… ‘Sand’ is a very rare magic attribute, you can’t learn it if you want to. You must have some kind of special trait to start.”
“So, did I pass this exam?”
“Of course… If this doesn’t let you pass, it would clearly be targeting you.
Although the deputy curator is petty-minded and leans toward his own academy’s students.
But since you’ve already agreed to admit that you received education from [The Library] when you achieve things in the future, the deputy curator will not deliberately give you a hard time.
After this, you should be able to receive a ‘borrowing card’, allowing you to freely rent books inside [The Library].
Of course, only basic books are free.
A somewhat advanced book requires spending copper coins and getting permission from a tutor… If you’re short of money, I can lend you some.”
“Thanks, if I need it, I will find you.”
“Turn your back to me… ”
“What?”
Han Dong suddenly had a strange feeling, considering they were just discussing monetary transactions.
“Your ‘magic circuit’ is kind of weird.
It seems like it’s not entirely yours… If the ‘magic circuit’ doesn’t go well with your body, it can cause ‘shorting’, ‘energy loss’ and a variety of other situations when you use magic.”
“Hmm…”
Han Dong had seen this point in the basic books.
‘Magic circuits’ in Han Dong’s body were formed when he was learning crow magic.
However, the connection of his sand arm last night added a new circuit on the original base.
It seemed to be a magic circuit system belonging to [The Undying Priest Imhotep].
Essentially, this kind of ‘magic circuit’ is more like an invisible engraving, used to guide the energy output from the brain’s seed, adjusting the ‘flow’ and ‘transformation’ rate and method of energy inside the body.
After connecting his arm last night, it was late, and Han Dong didn’t have time to check the circuit carefully. He just made sure that the energy flow wasn’t affected and then went to sleep in a hurry.
As Han Dong had just turned his back to Dumps.
A finger touched directly on the spine, a kind of electric shock feeling spread all over the body… It was really comfortable.
“Hmm!? Your circuit… What’s going on?”
“What?”
“The construction of the magic circuit is generally regular and single-layered… The circuit in your body is divided into inner and outer layers, and the construction of the inner layer circuit is twisted and very peculiar.”
“Is there any drawback?”
“Not really a drawback, the circuit is just a guide. As long as it can normally carry magic energy, there is no problem.
It’s just that this type of dual layer circuit is rarely seen… Let me help you adjust it, it should be able to optimize it by 30%~40%.”
“Thank you.”
There are no eavesdroppers in the high-level magic hot spring area.
Dumps immediately brought out ‘The Sixth Finger’… A finger that was both imaginary and real, similar to the tentacles Han Dong used, ignoring the barrier and passing directly through the skin on the back.
“Wow!!!”
This time it was not comfortable.
Strong spasms and pricking sensations constantly came, like the feeling of tendon picking without anesthetic.
“There are many closed circuits that need to be rewired… Just bear with it.”
“Ok.”
The seemingly small scale circuit debugging is actually a major project.
Only some senior professors in [The Library] would be able to do it.
Dumps used his ability from outside the city to achieve this adjustment process.
This move is not applicable to ordinary apprentices. Once touched by The Sixth Finger, it would cause skin contamination.
But Han Dong is different, as ‘Second Five Men’ the two naturally don’t have a problem with contamination. They can achieve a delicate cooperation that ordinary people can’t attain in certain aspects.
Dumps also touched Han Dong’s left arm during the massage.
Hum!
For a moment, Dumps felt as if he had traveled to ancient Egypt, being inside a pyramid and witnessing the scene of the High Priest being mummified alive.
“So that’s it…”
