"Using bloodline power of the same origin, the chances of hiding from the Mother of Ten Thousand Serpents are actually quite high..."
Leilin stroked his chin.
This was the solution the Chip had previously proposed — using bloodline power of the same origin to influence and interfere with the Mother of Ten Thousand Serpents' sensing ability.
And the Devil White Phosphorus Snake, which possessed a fifth-level bloodline, was clearly Leilin's best option right now.
"With the concealment issue solved, next up is the coordinates!"
Leilin looked at the Chip. "How's the analysis of the ancient thunder runes coming along?"
These were ancient thunder runes he had secretly scanned from Im's Ancient Thunder Robe — runes that possessed terrifying amplification power.
And Leilin had astutely recognized the potential for applying this amplification power to other areas, so he'd ordered the Chip to continue analyzing them.
[ Ding! Ancient Thunder Rune analysis progress: 100%. Catalogued: 127,651 runes. Fully analyzed: 112,319. Obtained complete Thunder Amplification Magical Array. Can effectively boost the power of thunder-type wizardry by 80%–230%! ]
The Chip reported faithfully.
"A complete amplification magical array obtained after fully analyzing the runes, and it has this kind of effect?" A hint of regret appeared in Leilin's eyes.
"What a pity... I'm not a wizard who specializes in thunder-type magic. Otherwise, this amplification array would be something even wizards would be willing to trade their entire fortunes for!"
After the Chip's analysis and reconstruction, this thunder rune amplification array was no longer limited to Im Liyas's Flash Thunderbolt — it could be applied to enhance all thunder-type wizardry!
Once the problem of universal applicability was solved, the entire array's value increased by millions of times over.
And its attractiveness to wizards who specialized in thunder-type magic was absolutely unparalleled. Even someone like Leilin, whose constitution wasn't particularly sensitive to the thunder element, would surpass many thunder-specialized wizards once this array was activated.
"The effects in this area are excellent. Store this as top-secret, priority one!" Leilin ordered. "Also, what's the current status of improvements to the amplification magical array?"
[ Ding! Data archived. Confidentiality level: Top-Secret One! ] The Chip's mechanical voice rang out, accompanied by a progress bar projected directly into Leilin's mind.
[ New amplification magical array design in progress. Current progress: 87.99%. Selected materials: ancient thunder runes, Ovok formulas, advanced magical array principles... ]
Behind the more-than-half-complete progress bar was a dense list of materials the Chip had selected, with the ancient thunder rune data at the top.
This was a task Leilin had assigned from the very beginning. Although ancient thunder runes only possessed amplification power for thunder-type wizardry, by extending the principle and combining it with the Chip's vast data library and computational ability, it was entirely possible to design a completely different type of specific amplification magical array.
"Name the new array the 'Lucky Magical Array.' Chip, simulate and estimate how much amplification the Lucky Magical Array can provide."
Leilin's brow smoothed slightly as he asked.
[ Ding! Task established. Retrieving data... Insufficient data on the Lucky Magical Array! Establishing hypothetical model. Simulation experiment initiating... ]
A somewhat unusual magical array immediately materialized before Leilin's eyes. Some of its runes were as fine and twisted as tadpoles, bearing the distinct characteristics of ancient thunder runes, yet also vastly different from the original version.
[ Ding! Simulation complete! Estimated amplification of regular wizardry: approximately 50%. For specific magical artifacts, the effect will exceed 80%! ]
"Excellent! If we discard the rest of the amplification power and focus solely on amplifying one specific magical artifact, can the power increase even further?" Leilin asked quietly.
[ Discarding all other amplification runes. Estimated power amplification for a specific magical artifact: exceeding 100%! ] Complex calculations completed in an instant, and the Chip immediately provided its response.
"Perfect! Proceed according to my plan just now. As for the specific magical artifact, use this as the template!"
A massive surge of soul power emanated from Leilin, feeding all the data of a particular magical artifact into the Chip.
Before the Lucky Magical Array was fully completed, such modifications were still entirely feasible.
And much of the reason Leilin had risked danger to steal the ancient thunder runes from Im was for precisely this purpose.
It could be said that with this amplification array secured, the final weak link in Leilin's plans had been substantially filled.
[ Ding! Data received. Modification of structure underway. Estimated completion time: 58 hours, 32 minutes, 41 seconds! ]
The Chip reported immediately.
"Excellent. Both of the most important preparations are nearly complete. Next, it's just a matter of other experiments and arrangements..."
