Chapter 823: Chapter 806: Multiple Triangles and Double Crosses
The magical seal variants inherited from the Wolf School are very practical.
For instance, the [Yarden Rune], originally used for sealing and manifestation.
Enemies within the magic array of the seal will slow down, and demon spirits will transform from apparitions into entities.
In the Wolf School’s materials, this variant allows the [Yarden Rune] to carry magical lightning attacks.
People entering the array will suddenly be struck by magical lightning.
[Igni Rune] can transform in Geralt’s hand into a high-temperature spark cannon.
These functionalities were prepared as multipurpose skills by the warlocks who pioneered the mutation process of demon hunters.
And now, Lann’s progress is starting to approach the fields truly feared and shunned by Vesemir.
"The lifelong research crystallization of Alzur."
Lann’s fingers skimd across the bookshelf beside him, filled with rows of knowledge from the most outstanding wizards and researchers of the past.
It could even be said not just from the ’past’.
Magic, thrives and falters in its ability to develop leapfrogging leaps.
Leapfrogging developnt cannot lay a vast and solid foundation like technology.
In a technological society, even if the top-notch researchers unexpectedly die, the knowledge they leave behind remains understandable to many.
Because, throughout their research, they inevitably leave experintal data and communicate with industrial systems that can realize their ideas, leaving explanations and thoughts.
Thus, successors can push technology forward, even if it’s challenging.
And magic?
After leapfrogging developnt, the death of a leading figure abruptly returns the magic realm to the starting point.
Now, even the alchemical knowledge of demon hunters has beco intriguing to external wizards.
Yet these things are already ’old antiques’ from hundreds of years ago.
Even Alzur’s famous spells, [Alzur Thunder Strike Technique], [Alzur’s Shield] not only haven’t seen reduced casting requirents, becoming more widespread with ti’s developnt.
Instead, they’ve beco thresholds for high-tier warlocks to demonstrate their identity and talent.
They even wish to add two segnts of sonnets into the incantations to highlight elegance and flair, while encrypting the correct spells.
Now, Lann is imrsed in the knowledge and concepts of Alzur, his teacher — Cosimo Malaspina, his pupil and student — Uliv the Adalan, these talented wizards.
Lann cannot say that these people’s character was flawless.
After all, their experints killed many people, due to their uncontrollable curiosity and exploration desire.
During the creation of the mutation process for demon hunters, these three successively created nurous fierce monsters that didn’t originally exist in the natural world.
The Chira was a hybrid beast created by Cosimo Malaspina, combining genes from the deer-headed demon and griffon, then adding insect-like creatures and pterosaur characteristics.
The Koshchei Monster arose from the cooperation between Alzur and Maraspina, a massive, tenacious insect-like creature, strong enough to be used as siege equipnt.
The gifted Adalan in mutation and hybridization independently created his creation, the Ada Monster.
These creatures later spilled into the external world, becoming terrors surpassing ordinary monsters.
Initially, they wanted to create demon hunters to protect humans from monster harm.
In the end, though successful, uncontrollable curiosity created more terrifying monsters during the process.
This was probably the origin of rumors like ’demon hunters fearing idleness, so simply creating monsters themselves to release’.
In Lann’s current perspective, he’s temporarily shielded from moral evaluations of these people, focusing on the wisdom and knowledge they developed.
"The lifelong research crystallization of Alzur."
Lann put the last book back on the shelf, just scanned into mory by ntos, repeating it muttering.
"[Multiple Triangle] and [Cross]...?"
[Alzur’s Cross], the renowned mage Alzur shook the world, also infamous magic.
With this magic, he quelled the historic ’Endless War’ in Teria’s succession war, forcing Duke Elrand to acknowledge Duke of Maribor’s control over Teria.
Yet after the war ended, for unknown reasons, summoned the Saliva Demon in Maribo, and then the gigantic Centipede Monster crushed half a city, disappearing.
Alzur himself died in that conflict.
People thought the so-called [Alzur Cross] was just a monster summoning technique.
Only Alzur was too strong, the spell too perfect, thus capable of finding, binding, enslaving creatures like the Saliva Demon.
But if what Lann thinks is correct, if he’s accurately deduced Alzur’s experintal approach from the handnotes on the bookshelf, then...
"Then, actually, the unknown [Alzur’s Multiple Triangle] is the key subsidiary spell supporting the [Alzur’s Cross], sir."
ntos agreed with the primary subject’s hypothesis in his mind.
[Multiple Triangle], a spell result Alzur did not disseminate, hence little known.
According to Lann’s conjecture, this magic would trigger a chain of biological mutations in ordinary creatures, significantly enhancing physiological structures.
Due to discovering clues in so obscure phrases within Koshchei and Ada Monster’s creation process records.
Mages to ensure exclusive knowledge often use arcane language, codes.
But before abundant materials and ntos’s computing power, these arcane languages, codes seed as thin as gauze, one poke revealing it all.
Codes evolving beco ’cryptography’, and the key to cryptography... lies in computing power.
Moreover, these are rely arcane codes, barely worthy as ’codes’.
"[Multiple Triangle] changed original biological traits, transforming ordinary creatures into monsters. Whereas [Cross] represented Alzur’s extraordinary control."
Lann and ntos both began rapid cognitive processing, even now Lann’s body made his forehead sweat.
In such circumstances, Lann’s eyes beca brighter.
"[Cross] is the master control system! It consolidates results from countless [Multiple Triangle] applications, then imposes contracts, positioning, summoning, directed induction..."
Simply put, [Alzur’s Multiple Triangle] uses a large and easily proliferating base of insect-like organisms, mutates ordinary creatures presenting attributes valued and recognized by Alzur.
Whereas [Alzur’s Cross] unifies these characteristics, applying directed mutation induction. Upon success, imposing magical constraints and summoning targeting on the creature.
"That Saliva Demon wasn’t simply summoned, or rather, it existed in so otherworld before, then was magically summoned. However..."
Lann and ntos’ thinking slowed down, having streamlined their thoughts.
"That Saliva Demon was rely raised in another world, essentially created by Alzur!"
"The challenge of [Alzur’s Cross] isn’t ’summoning’ but ’creating’!"
What Alzur summoned was the monster he created.
Other mages rely incanting the simplest summoning spells were useless?
anwhile, one task progress bar created by ntos under Lann’s command suddenly leaped forward significantly!
