Roland played with the blue ball of magic power in his hand.
It was weightless and stopped in midair when he let go of it.
It was the "core chassis" that the floating city needed, and the foundation for the floating city to float.
It was also the magic power brick that Mordenkainen talked about.
Roland, on the other hand, preferred to call it "solid magic power," which sounded more academic.
It was very, very small, only the size of Roland's thumb, but it was already vaguely absorbing the magic power around it.
Of course, because it was too small, the amount of magic power it absorbed was negligible.
"Can a massive object generate a gravitational force that can capture the objects around it?"
Roland thought to himself.
He tried to explain the phenomenon he saw with more scientific concepts.
"But because it's a high-pressure solid of magic elements, it can only absorb magic elements?"
Roland put the magic power ball aside and compressed it into the first phase, which was almost completely transparent, with enough magic power.
In such a transparent energy ball, the magic power that was gathered would still disperse, though very slowly.
"Is it because the mass isn't large enough when it's the same size, or because the magic power is too large and the gravity inside isn't strong enough?"
Roland put the translucent magic power ball next to the blue ball, but they weren't next to each other but kept a certain distance from each other.
After putting it aside, Roland began to make a new, larger, round solid magic power that was about the size of an apple.
He was slightly worried about how he should make the magic power into a brick.
He could only make a circle by compressing it with his mental power.
Was it because he didn't use his mental power well enough?
Did he have to study the techniques of mental power?
Did the Red Magic Tower have any courses in that regard?
While thinking, Roland tossed the solid magic elements in his hand and was about to put it aside, when he was suddenly stunned.
It was because he found that the transparent magic power ball had moved to a place where it shouldn't have been.
Roland was stunned for a moment. He stared straight at the mass of energy and opened his mental vision.
Then, to his surprise, he discovered that the dispersing magic power of the energy cluster was actually in the form of a thin thread that was submerged into the small solid magic element bead.
Roland stared at it for a while, only to discover, to his surprise, that the transparent cluster of energy was indeed moving. Although it was moving very slowly, it was circling around the magic ball like the moon circling the Earth.
There was actually such a thing?
Roland was surprised.
The manuscript given by Mordenkainen did not say that such a situation would occur.
Roland took the manuscript out of the system Backpack and read it again to make sure that it was true.
Indeed, he hadn't.
Was it because it was round?
It didn't feel possible.
Holding the solid magic power the size of an apple, Roland watched in silence as the transparent energy ball slowly circled around the blue bead. He watched as the dispersing magic power was attracted by the bead. He watched as the energy ball slowly shrank until it was as small as a grain of rice or as small as a shooting star. Dragging a long tail of energy, it spun and cut into the magic power layer on the surface of the bead, before it finally "fell" into the bead and turned into blue flashes.
The bead shivered slightly too.
After absorbing the magic power, the bead seemed to have grown a little bigger.
The process took at least seventeen hours.
Roland's feet were a little numb from standing. He stretched his body and then excitedly put the much larger solid magic power ball in his hand next to the bead.
If the shapeless magic power energy circled the bead just now, then it was the bead that began to circle the solid magic element ball that was as big as an apple at this moment.
As he expected … At the same density, the larger and more massive "sphere" could capture other smaller solid magic power clusters.
It was like a celestial body.
If this "apple" was the sun and this grape was Mercury, then … Roland suddenly had an epiphany.
Then, he began to pinch the new small magic power bead excitedly.
Venus, Earth, Mars …
"Jupiter is a gaseous planet and is relatively large … Well, let's make it light blue, between an energy cluster and pure solid magic power."
"Saturn has rings … What should I do?"
After thinking for a while, Roland splashed a lot of pure magic elements on the Saturn bead.
Half of these magic elements were attracted by Saturn, but the other half revolved around the 'Saturn' bead and gradually connected, forming a beautiful transparent ribbon.
Seeing that, Roland increased the output of magic elements.
About half an hour later, a flat, bright blue belt of light appeared next to the Saturn bead.
"Cool!"
Roland waved his hand heavily in excitement. The feeling of making what he wanted and the sense of accomplishment was indescribable.
Then, he made Uranus and Neptune in the same way.
When he was about to make Pluto, he suddenly remembered that Pluto had been expelled as a planet.
Now, there were only eight planets in the solar system.
So, the solar system could be considered complete now.
Next to a big "apple" were eight beads of different sizes. Some of the beads even had rings, which looked beautiful and comfortable.
Also, those beads began to revolve around the "apple" in the middle according to their own orbit.
As they revolved, the magic elements around them were gradually attracted.
Although not much, as time went by, a dense mist of magic elements was formed that was invisible to the naked eye.
But it could be sensed with mental power.
Roland had thought that the "spheres" should be able to absorb the magic elements and gradually grow larger as they gathered.
Unfortunately, this idea was wrong. Roland stood by the side and observed for nearly eight hours, but he did not find any signs of these spheres growing larger.
Left with no choice, he could only release the magic elements that he had accumulated in his body and "splash" them on the rather mini solar system.
Then, Roland discovered that the spheres only absorbed the magic power elements that he released, and the natural magic power elements that were drifting away were simply gathered to him.
Because those solid magic element spheres were all made by him, they could only absorb the energy that had the same "mark"?
That was very likely.
He emptied the magic power in his body. Under normal circumstances, the magic power would soon lose his mental mark and turn back into free magic elements in half an hour.
However, when they entered the effective gravitational range of the solar system, their personal marks didn't dissipate. Instead, they mixed with the free magic elements and slowly assimilated them.
Although the assimilation process was somewhat slow.
Soon, the assimilated magic elements that carried Roland's mark could be absorbed by the nine beads of different sizes.
The beads had different absorption capacities, but generally speaking, the larger the mass, the more magic elements could be absorbed.
However, the absorption was faster than the magic power assimilation, so about eight hours later, all the magic power that carried Roland's personal mark was gone.
However, the "mist" caused by the magic power gathering phenomenon grew larger.
Standing in the circle, Roland's magic power recovery speed was at least twenty percent faster.
Was this … Magic Power Affluence?
Roland remembered that it was written in Mordenkainen's manuscript that when the floating city was built and launched, there would be a strange phenomenon of magic power attraction. This was Magic Power Affluence.
In an environment of Magic Power Affluence, the magic power recovery, casting speed, and power would all be greatly improved.
It was also one of the reasons why the floating city was so powerful.
But now, Roland had only made nine small spheres, which were far from being able to build a floating city. How could there be a small-scale Magic Power Affluence?
Was it because of the celestial body motion system?
Holding his chin, Roland stood and thought, only to be woken up by the sound of a system notification.
He opened it and saw that someone in the guild had pinged him.
Betta: "Brother Roland, come and help me. I've got my territory, but … there's some trouble."
Roland: "Is someone bothering you? Call Schuck and Li Lin and let's go kill them."
Betta: "No, my territory is full of swamps. There's no place for people to stand."
Roland: "?"
Betta: "You'll know when you come. I'll wait for you in Delpon."
Roland left the solar system here and then left the basement.
He had been in the basement for three days. Not long after he left the basement, the butler immediately came to him.
"Mr. Roland, a merchant has found a lot of magic materials for you." The butler looked quite happy. "They're all waiting for you to summon them."
"Don't bother." Roland took out three gray cloth bags from his Backpack and gave them to the butler. "Here are three hundred gold coins. After you help me confirm that they're the magic materials I need, help me pay for them. Three hundred gold coins should be enough for two to three months. After that, half of the expenses will be paid from the city's taxes and the other half will come to me, got it? "
The butler struggled to carry the three heavy bags. The body of an ordinary person couldn't compare to that of a professional.
"Also, no one is allowed to enter the basement without my permission. If anything happens in there, I won't compensate for your death."
The butler's expression turned grave and he nodded quickly. "I'll arrange the protection work here."
After telling the butler what to do, Roland teleported to the capital of Fareins and found Alfred.
"Great Elder, when will we have a friendly communication with the Temple of Light?"
Roland remembered that after the friendly communication ceremony, Roland could enter the Grand Library of Light once.
He had been looking forward to it for a long time.
"It's delayed," Alfred said helplessly. Alfred said helplessly, "I didn't know that a Demigod-level dark creature was hiding in the Church of Light. Those people were scared, and they're still investigating it."
"How many days is it delayed?"
Alfred thought for a moment and said, "Probably a month. If you don't have anything to do, you can go somewhere else and travel. You know Teleportation anyway, so you can teleport back in a month! We Mages not only need a lot of time to practice magic, but we also need common sense. Besides, the knowledge you gain during the trip may give you a better understanding of the magic you've learned and a better way to strengthen it. "
Roland understood the logic.
But Roland felt that instead of traveling, it was better to watch the videos about the game uploaded by the idiotic netizens, which were much more exciting than going on a trip himself.
All kinds of harsh views and worldviews.
It was also good for increasing knowledge and common sense.
