The trip this time was not as thrilling and tiring as the one with Sarah. A fleet supported by a country had everything needed for a voyage. Li Ke could enjoy the joy of learning and reading on the sea to his heart's content. Last night, he had finished reading all of Pi Cheng's knowledge on mechanics, as well as the core technology of Hex. He had somewhat "grasped" it. After all, Hex technology was just another kind of magic. With Li Ke's knowledge of a few spells, he was able to pick up the relevant content quite quickly.
Moreover, Hex Technology and magic had different descriptions of the same thing, which was very interesting to him. For example, regarding the explanation of Brownian Motion, Hex Technology believed that it was because some temporarily unobservable force or energy field pushed tiny floating objects. Magic, on the other hand, meant that even the tiniest things in the world had magic, and these magic would work unconsciously. That was how Brownian Motion came about.
It was an interesting way of saying that although both of them had the same origin, the different methods and directions of looking at the same thing led to similar but completely different answers. And these answers were also correct.
"So, in this case, my magic can also be explained as a type of field? And since I can absorb the vitality of plants and animals, which is the nutrients and energy contained in them, then … what about microorganisms? What about cells? "
Li Ke flipped through the book and thought about his magic with great interest. He also tried to use magic to sense the tiny microorganisms around him to see if he could absorb energy from them. But unfortunately, he could only sense the magical energy around him, but he couldn't sense the microorganisms that existed in this world.
"So, do I still need some support?"
Li Ke pondered. Then, he snapped his fingers and magical knots unfolded before him. The overlapping layers of transparent magical enchantment had only one function, which was to bend and form a microscope with the other knots.
This could be considered as a spell that Li Ke developed himself. In fact, there was a rather perfect version of the spell that Nasus gave him. But that version was too expensive, so Li Ke modified it and created this monkey board microscope spell. Although he couldn't see much, it could still help him see the microorganisms.
But just as he was about to look at the microorganisms on his hand, he looked at the knots that formed the mirror and had a different idea. He immediately took action. He stretched out his hand, and a dazzling light bloomed from his hand. The moment the light passed through the microscope, it burned through the deck in front of him and burned an undetectable hole in his ship.
Of course, he wasn't doing this to test an insignificant offensive spell. He just suddenly thought of the Dyson sphere that he didn't have a good way to use. Then, he thought of a device that could use it to launch a long-range attack. With a small calculation and the use of energy to increase the scale of the enchantment, he could create a weapon that could burn glass.
"Magic is really convenient."
He couldn't help but touch his chin. He was about to write it down. He was going to study the device after he learned a few more things. But just as he was about to continue studying whether his spell could absorb the vitality of microorganisms, his eyes caught a faint flash in the sea. He turned his head and saw a small boat and a man with only one arm on it. The flash he saw was the reflection of a mirror that the man hung on the boat.
He immediately ordered his men to change the course of the ship to save the man. When their ship approached the small boat, Li Ke couldn't help but frown. Although the one-armed man wasn't dead, in his eyes, the man was wrapped in a dark substance. It looked very strange. He also smelled something similar to Qian Jue's scent in the black fog, but it was completely different.
Moreover, the black fog wasn't just wrapped around the man. It was vaguely connected to something. The black fog wasn't just cursing him. It was very likely that it was a beacon, a mark. There must be a huge problem with the undead behind him. It was a problem that could be written into a volume of novels.
"If that's the case …"
Li Ke hurriedly stopped the people on his ship from rescuing the man. Instead, he took off his shirt and stabbed his own heart with his fingers like a knife, preventing his life force from repairing his heart. His action made the hearts of the people around him race, especially Nola. The corner of her mouth twitched as she looked at Li Ke who was bleeding profusely. She didn't want to say anything.
If she knew that he would suddenly do something like this today, she wouldn't have worked as a maid to collect things that made her feel like she was crazy!
However, what these people didn't know was that Li Ke subconsciously thought of the gods' scheme because of the one-armed man's appearance. Therefore, he decided to let the professionals handle this matter. In this world, was there anyone more suitable than Qian Jue to handle this matter?
No one, right?
In a magical world where gods existed, was there a better way to solve the problem than to find a god who was in charge of the matter?
As his vital signs gradually weakened due to the loss of blood, his eyes indeed saw more things. Not only was there a black fog on the man's body that ordinary people couldn't see, there were also phantoms of ghosts entangling his soul and body. It was obvious that he had been targeted, and wouldn't leave easily until he died. However, before he could see more, he heard two voices that he was quite familiar with behind him.
"Tsk."
"Ptui."
It was the voices of a wolf and a sheep.
He turned around and realized that Qian Jue wasn't the little girl from before. Instead, it was a real sheep spirit and a wolf spirit. They weren't wearing any clothes and were only wearing simple masks. In terms of the threat Li Ke felt, Qian Jue's appearance this time was much more threatening than the little girl last time. Qian Jue's personality was also much colder. The little girl would greet him when she saw him, but this naked Qian Jue's first action was to grab the wolf spirit's head and turn around to leave.
"Erm, I'm actually looking for you because of something. You should know how that thing came about, right? To you, anything that interferes with life and death should be your enemy, right? "
However, when Qian Jue glanced at the one-armed man because of Li Ke's words, she stopped and shook her head.
"I'm only in charge of death."
"But we do want him to die."
The sheep spirit and wolf spirit gave two answers at the same time. Li Ke tilted his head in confusion. After all, didn't Mord Kaiser start to infringe on their authority in the game?
As though noticing his doubts, the goat spirit spoke again before she turned around and left. The wolf spirit also added a sentence at the right time.
"Do you think he's alive?"
"Or perhaps I've already captured him?"
Then, they disappeared.
