After all, weapons and equipment were meant to be used by people. As long as the equipment with dwarven runes was spread out, the Mages would naturally figure out the trick.
However, the rune Anninte alone was useless. Different spells had different effects, and different sets of runes would be used to complement them. The runes had to be completed meticulously in order to be fully effective. That part of the inheritance, however, was a secret of the dwarves. Therefore, the Mages in the land of mystery could only copy the runes that they had seen before, and they could only copy the runes for the same purpose.
Lin used this rune in the improved light bullet attack array in order to provide the effect of consecutive shots. However, the main rune was indeed Anyinte, but the related array and patterns were not recorded in the inheritance of the dwarves. It was someone's own design, and it had proven to be very useful. These half-new and half-old things naturally attracted the attention of the dwarves.
However, Lin could understand why the dwarves were confused enough to ask someone for advice. It was because the picture was not complete at all. So, he asked the dwarf who came to ask for advice, "You only have this picture?"
Puzzled, the dwarf asked intuitively, "What do you mean?"
"It's the same as what I asked. If you only have this picture, of course you can't figure out anything. It's because it's not complete. "
Turning over the screen of the Water Mirror in confusion, the dwarf looked carefully at the picture he had obtained, wondering if there might be something missing. But no matter how he looked at it, the picture was complete. There shouldn't be anything missing.
He had such an understanding because the design of the magic arrays and runes in the land of mystery abided by the most basic principles, which were symmetry and balance. From such a perspective, this magic array was complete, but it couldn't be used.
The problem lay in the purpose of this magic array, which was slightly different from the original purpose of the dwarven runes. Anyinte was an auxiliary spell added to weapons and equipment, and this kind of spell itself had a long time to work, so the connection of Anyinte wasn't a big problem.
However, part of this light bullet attack array was to realize the continuous firing of light bullets, which was similar to the function of a recoil spring in a gun. To put it simply, the interval between the effects was quite short, and the high-frequency operation would cause interference in the magic.
This problem was still unsolved when making miniaturized magic firearms. However, when it was scaled up to the size of a Magic Tower, it was easy to solve. By using an unbalanced design, they would actively destroy a complete and smooth magic array, causing the magic array to operate sluggishly. This momentary delay prevented any possible interference from occurring, and completed the continuous firing of spells.
Although there was an upper limit to the operating speed of such a design, it was sufficient for normal situations. And for the Dwarf's illustration, it just so happened to omit the most important part of the imbalance. Lin Feng did not hide anything and used the Whiteboard Brush Technique to draw a complete cycle of the original array diagram in the air.
Of course, the main focus was on the unbalanced part. As a matter of fact, it was a small independent magic circle that was not connected to the main magic circle beside Anninte's magic circle. When there was energy passing through the main array, it would sense and generate energy in the opposite direction.
As long as it sensed the energy, this small magic circle would affect the energy operation of the main array, thus achieving the purpose of filtering and eliminating the possible interference of the main array.
Judging from the dwarves' reaction, Lin Feng knew that if he didn't point it out himself, nobody would understand that the magic circle that seemed to have an independent function was part of the runic array. And it was a very important part.
After the explanation, Lin Feng received a bunch of dwarves who looked at him as if he were an idiot. The dwarf who asked the question even grumbled, "How can this be useful? It doesn't conform to the basic rules at all."
Faced with the dwarf's complaint, Lin Feng simply shrugged and said, "At least this is useful when I'm modifying the Magic Tower."
"Well … which tower?" asked the dwarf.
"The Tower of the Great Sage."
The dwarves and other Homo Sapiens sitting nearby all gasped as long as they paid attention to Lin Feng's table. The dwarf also asked in trepidation, "May I know your name, sir?"
"I'm Guebrach Lin Tripwood."
"It's really you!" The dwarf hurriedly pointed at the drawing drawn with a whiteboard and asked, "Can this really work?"
"Well, perhaps you can ask the demon general who was blown up this question. See if the Tower of the Great Sage is running smoothly. "
The dwarves were skeptical, but many still egged on the one who asked Lin Feng, saying, "Old man, don't just ask, actually do it. Haven't you been working on that shield for a long time? It's not finished yet. "
Although it was a bit of a struggle, he still took out a shield from under the tavern bar, as well as a small hammer, chisel, silver sand, and other enchantment tools and materials. He cleared a table with the rowdy dwarves and was about to carve runes on the spot.
At the same time, a group of dwarves with red noses and hiccups took out all kinds of magic circles and runes and asked a certain someone. The content of the questions was strange of every description, but it was all rather superficial knowledge. Under the eaves, Lin Feng couldn't not say anything, so he just answered casually.
Even so, the dwarves who asked the questions all showed expressions of sudden realization. Because Lin Feng could give examples that they all knew for comparison, it was naturally easier to understand with such a comparison.
And Lin Feng was also helpless to always have to answer such beginner level questions, but this was caused by the current situation of the maze.
Although many Homo sapiens, including magic, had developed culture and history for thousands of years, there was only one way to do learning, and that was the "method of exhaustion." List all the possibilities and then do experiments one by one. There was no induction method, no statistics and no calculation.
In such an environment of learning, it was quite important whether or not one had a teacher. Because having a teacher meant that their experience could be passed down. Whether it was the possibilities that were eliminated in the method of exhaustion, or the correct method determined through experiments. These things became the most precious assets after generations of accumulation.
If one didn't have a teacher, for a doubt, one could only use the method of exhaustion to try mistakes one by one until the answer was found. This was also the biggest reason why learning magic was expensive, and a lot of money was wasted on repetition or similar mistakes.
But doing so wasn't without benefits, and some new accidental discoveries were made by chance in this kind of trial and error. Some shrewd and talented Mages would think of ways to take advantage of these pleasant surprises, but the Mages who didn't have this kind of awareness would only curse and complain that they didn't achieve the effect they imagined. This was where the gap in progress between the two came into being.
After answering a few people's doubts, the dwarf who was carrying out the enchantment on the shield suddenly shouted, "Good! It's done! Does anyone want to give it a try? "
He saw a group of Dwarves scrambling for the responsibility of testing the shield. Lin, on the other hand, stuck his head out curiously to look at the shield. It was a large square arc shield, and with the dwarf's height, it was just enough to cover the entire person. Even if a human used it, it could cover most of the body.
Although there were some decorations, overall, it still belonged to the rough style of dwarves. But where the pattern was used, it couldn't be seen. And of course, it was also not known what kind of magic was attached to this shield. Lin was also very curious about this.
In the end, a dwarf wearing full-body magic armor was gloriously qualified to test the shield. He stood on the other side of the cleared space and put down his iron mask as if it was a matter of fact. He clenched his fist and knocked on his chest, making a sonorous sound, and said, "Come on. Don't be shy. "
The dwarf holding the shield was some distance away from him, and the two confronted each other like this. In Lin's imagination, the shield tester should be the guy who was fully armed, holding a sledgehammer or axe, rushing up and slashing at the shield. But … the dwarf who said he wanted to test the shield didn't bring any weapons.
"Ready?" the dwarf holding the shield shouted.
"Come on."
It was too late to say, but in a flash, the shield-bearer took a step forward and at the same time chanted a spell, and the shield in his hand spewed out more than a dozen fireballs in succession. Although the landing points were slightly off, they still greeted the shield-tester without deviation.
The fireballs that were shot out in succession weren't just for show, with bursting, sputtering, and other effects. Even the shield-tester dwarf, who was dressed like a tin can, was blasted into the sky and then fell to the ground, unable to get up.
In a split second, the tavern was silent. Everyone held their breaths and looked at the dwarf who had been boisterous about wanting to test the shield.
Suddenly, he sat up like a zombie, took off his mask, exhaled, and said, "Stone on top, this is really exciting."
In an instant, there was a burst of cheers in the tavern, and the two dwarves who were testing the shield and holding the shield were carried on the shoulders of others to receive heroic cheers.
A certain someone who was watching from the side was also completely speechless. Whose shield would spray out more than a dozen fireballs to greet each other? No mage would be so ferocious. If one didn't know the details, they would definitely be beaten down. This was a shield used for sneak attacks.
However, it was confirmed that the improved runes pointed out by a certain someone was indeed feasible, and he suddenly became a hot commodity, surrounded by a group of dwarves who couldn't tell who was who. Although some came to ask for guidance on the use of magic arrays and runes, more came to compete in drinking …
However, the things that were asked today were also new to Lin. Because in the past, what others asked for guidance were all knowledge about Language P, which had never appeared in the Maze World. No one had asked for guidance on the design of the magic arrays of the Tower of the Great Sage.
Perhaps everyone thought that it was something they were familiar with, but combined in a more complicated way. As long as they put in some effort to study it, they would be able to see through the mystery inside.
To be honest, Lin was also happy that no one came to dig up the secrets in this area. Just transmitting the contents of the programming language consumed a considerable amount of his energy, and this was in the situation where the vast majority of people were blank pieces of paper, allowing him to scribble freely. But when it came to magic arrays, it was more than a thousand times more difficult to change the inherent ideas of many people.
So strictly speaking, it wasn't that a certain someone was hiding something, it was purely that he didn't have the energy to teach. If he could stay in the academy longer and have more opportunities to give lectures, he would definitely put this knowledge on the table and make it public to the world.
But the world was always not as good as one imagined. Helplessness.
