"So you want to create your own long-range bombardment spell?"
Even though Fangzheng lamented the terrible inertia of history, he still asked just to be safe.
"Why did you come up with this idea?"
In the original work, Naiya chose to create this spell as her trump card because she couldn't defeat Buffett. But Buffett hadn't even appeared yet … You don't have to be in such a hurry, do you?
"Because I got some inspiration from Miss Blackie."
"Inspiration?"
Fangzheng couldn't help but glance at Blackie. Blackie giggled and made a victory sign at Fangzheng. This gave Fangzheng a very bad feeling.
"Yes."
Naiya nodded dejectedly.
"My reaction speed can't keep up with Miss Blackie's, and controlling magic bullets to shoot accurately isn't my forte …."
This time, Fangzheng didn't refute. In fact, Naiya's performance in this aspect was really mediocre. Of course, this was only relative to the "Archer" Blackie.
"Then, when I asked Miss Blackie for advice, she told me that it doesn't matter if I can't shoot accurately, as long as I can fire an attack that the enemy can't escape from …."
"So, you want to play a large-scale AOE attack?"
Upon hearing this, Fangzheng was rendered completely speechless. He silently looked at Little Black once again, but Little Black had already run off to tease Ilya while giggling.
Speaking of which, Blackie seemed to really like to use a pseudo-spiraling sword to blast things around ….
"But you should know that your magic power isn't enough to complete such a large-scale AOE bombardment, right?"
Fangzheng still wanted to try his hand at altering the world.
"Yes, but I thought of a good idea."
With that said, Nanoha excitedly described the place to Fangzheng.
"I discovered that after every battle, there's a lot of magic power scattered around. If I can use this magic power in some way, I can launch a powerful AOE bombardment at once!"
"…"
Fangzheng was speechless as he looked at the excited expression on Nanoha's face. He was sure that Nanoha was currently in a state of "this is a difficult problem, but I've finally figured out a way to solve it". When she came up with the idea, she probably did not consider the implications of the magic, nor did she consider how terrifying it would be …. She just naturally felt that it was the right thing to do ….
Did that mean that all pink things were black when they were cut open?
Or natural tanning?
Fortunately, at least the other cute girl was white inside and out.
Fangzheng heaved a sigh of relief as he looked at Xiao Ying, who was posing under Zhi Shi's guidance.
"Hmm, let me think about it …"
Of course, Fangzheng wouldn't use the original version of Starlight Burst. In the original novel, it was because this move caused too much damage to Nanoha's body, causing her to suffer from a hidden illness. But Fangzheng had to admit that Starlight Burst was indeed Nanoha's signature move. When Nanoha was mentioned, she would think of Starlight Burst, and when Starlight Burst was mentioned, she would think of Nanoha ….
Using free magic power was indeed a good idea, but the original version of Starlight Burst had a major weakness — the charging time was too long, so Nanoha had to think of a way to restrain her opponent every time she made a move.
Of course, from a certain point of view, making her opponent face despair was terrifying in itself.
But strictly speaking, Nanoha wasn't the one who came up with this move in the original novel. It was Fiat who first used this move on Nanoha, then Nanoha used it on the spot ….
How should he put it …. She reaped what she sowed.
"Give me the Heart of the Rising Sun. Let me take a look."
Fangzheng had to admit that "how to make Starlight Burst more powerful" was indeed an interesting topic. He couldn't help but want to try it out.
"Yes, teacher."
Hearing Fangzheng's words, Nanoha nodded. She obediently deactivated her transformation and handed the Heart of the Rising Sun to him. After Fangzheng received the Heart of the Rising Sun, he quickly turned on his personal terminal, connected it to the Heart of the Rising Sun, and started searching for the information inside.
Compared to Xiao Ying's "Key of Sealing", Nanoha's "Heart of the Rising Sun" was more like an intelligent magical product, so Fangzheng's personal terminal could easily access the core of the Heart of the Rising Sun for modification and inspection.
"Let me take a look. Hmm …. This is interesting …. Maybe I can do this …."
While speaking, Fangzheng started typing on the keyboard.
"What do you think?"
"Huh?"
Nanoha was taken aback when she heard Fangzheng's question.
"What?"
"I've added a module to the Heart of the Rising Sun."
Fangzheng looked at the screen with satisfaction, then looked at Nanoha again.
"During battle, you can activate the module, and it will automatically absorb the free magic, just like the NPCs in fighting games or the aggro bar...."
Fangzheng had suddenly found this inspiration from the game's settings. That's right, since it was an ultimate skill, it could only be used when the NPCs had accumulated enough mana! Then, wouldn't it be fine if the NPCs could accumulate mana during a battle?
Of course, it was not enough to rely on the NPCs to accumulate enough mana for the Starlight Burst. But in fact, what Fangzheng did was to remove what he thought was the most dangerous part of the whole process.
As everyone knew, the steps of the Starlight Burst were binding, condensing mana, and then shooting it out in one go.
The most dangerous part was the "shooting" part, because a large amount of mana would cause a huge burden on the user's body. If a comparison had to be made, then it was like a person standing behind a cannon and firing it manually. Then he had to bear the recoil force from firing the cannon with his whole body.
It would be strange if the person's body didn't suffer from this kind of impact over and over again.
The reason Fangzheng absorbed the NPCs was to create a "protective wall" to resist this kind of impact force.
This way, the original manual cannon would become automatic, and Nanoha would not need to stand behind and bear the recoil force from firing the cannon, because part of the mana would be used to absorb and resist the recoil force …. This was the best solution Fangzheng could think of at the moment.
To put it simply, the original "Starlight Burst" required Nanoha to condense the free mana into a cannonball, insert it into the cannon barrel, and fire it manually. But with the improved "Starlight Burst", Nanoha only needed to make the cannonball and fill the barrel. The firing process was completely automated.
Of course, because a part of the mana was used for "automated" consumption, the power of the Starlight Burst would not be very strong at first. On the contrary, its power would gradually increase over time. Considering the large area of effect effect, Fangzheng changed the cylindrical cannonball to a large area of effect ….
But when Nanoha heard about Fangzheng's idea, she suddenly had a new idea.
"Teacher, can you modify this spell a little?"
"Modify? Modify what? "
"That's … that's …."
Nanoha did not seem to know what to say. Fangzheng only saw her dancing around for a moment, then she seemed to have thought of something.
"It's like a flashlight. At first, it can illuminate a large area, but I only need to rotate the flashlight to shrink the area it illuminates, but it will become brighter …."
"I understand what you mean."
Fangzheng nodded. At the same time, he once again wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. Of course he understood what Nanoha meant. To put it bluntly, she would first use a large area of effect attack to envelop the target within the range of the attack. Once the target was hit by the AOE attack, the target would not be able to escape and could only defend. This was equivalent to passively restricting the target's movements.
After that, Nanoha would shrink the area of effect to increase the power of the attack ….
Oh my god, this is killing me!
Fangzheng glanced at Nanoha, who was looking at him excitedly. At the same time, he was secretly worried for Fathom.
If Fathom encountered Nanoha now, wouldn't he be beaten to a pulp?
