Duke looked at the long list of recomnded materials and decided to buy them all. Only after gaining so understanding could he know which kind of chanical wizardry would suit him best.
He could directly purchase all these materials, and once ordered, soone would deliver them.
In fact, many books and materials require certain privileges and status to access, and cannot be purchased with magic stones alone.
Due to his identity as a Limit Breaker, Duke was directly able to remove these obstacles and acquire this knowledge.
He smoothly completed the ordering and paynt for all the selected materials. Although the amount deducted was not small and cost over two million magic stones, it was entirely within his current wealth’s capacity.
More importantly, this knowledge, which could be exchanged for with magic stones and carried official authorization, was already a precious resource for countless wizards without connections.
In less than two hours, the room’s access control system gave a soft notification.
Outside the door stood a young apprentice dressed in a standard silver-gray uniform, with a competent aura, holding a silver tal sealed box about half his height with shockproof features in both hands.
"Mr. Duke, the knowledge pack you ordered has been delivered, please verify your identity."
Duke presented his Limit Breaker badge, and the rune lock on the box’s surface lit up green, silently sliding open.
Inside were neatly arranged dozens of knowledge crystals of uniform specifications and slightly different colors, along with corresponding physical authorization cards and a thick appendix index manual.
After completing the handover, the young apprentice politely withdrew, making the entire process efficient and quiet.
For the following two months, Duke’s life entered an extrely regular and focused state.
He first imrsed himself in "Introduction to Basic chanical Wizard Theories." This magnum opus did not directly teach magic; rather, it systematically reshaped his understanding of power application.
It expounded on the core philosophy of chanical wizards: "Tools are extensions of will, structures are manifestations of thought, and safety boundaries are the unbreachable bottom line."
The book devotes a significant number of pages discussing the advantages and limitations of the non-implant route, listing dozens of historical cases where ignoring security protocols led to tragedies, which were shocking.
Duke deeply understood from this why this school so emphasizes standardization and protocols—not solely for efficiency but also to maintain human integrity and dominance when harnessing powerful external forces.
This is a completely different route than the implant wizardry school; many chanical wizards even cease to be considered human further down this path.
Of course, Duke would not take this path. He studied these materials mainly to learn, draw lessons, and broaden his own horizon.
Next were "Fundantal Principles of Magic tal Characteristics" and "Magic Materials Engineering." These two books provided a deeper explanation of magic tals and various magic materials.
More importantly, he began to view his tallic yellow sand with a brand-new perspective; each grain could be considered an excellent magic material.
...
In two months of in-depth study, Duke did not practice any specific chanical wizardry, but his cognitive infrastructure quietly built a solid, systematic, and clearly defined safety boundary fra.
He now knew where the power ca from, where the limits were, and the possible evolutionary directions of his unique tallic yellow sand talent within this system.
With a solid theoretical foundation, practice was now on the agenda.
Typically, chanical wizard-related magic requires refining so magic tal for personal use, leaving a spiritual power imprint within these magic tals.
This allows better mobilization of these magic tals to release various magic when casting spells.
chanical wizards can use these magic tals to do a variety of things, and they can also take them to alchemists to craft them into specific structures and forms.
Duke found he could skip this process entirely; the tallic yellow sand he possessed inherently had this characteristic.
Moreover, due to his innate talent magic, he could control each grain of sand with extrely high precision.
Duke purchased two Level 1 chanical wizard magic models, the Hive Barrier and the Floating Cannon.
The Hive Barrier can form a tal fortress with extrely strong defensive capabilities, stronger than the fortress previously built by rely piling up tallic yellow sand.
Duke’s heart thought flickered, and a small handful of tallic yellow sand floated up from his fingertip, slowly rotating in front of him.
The grains seed to be manipulated by an invisible engineer, starting to differentiate and combine.
So grains lded together to form hexagonal foundational structure units, while others adhered to the edges to form standardized magic interfaces and chanical clasps.
More grains arranged within the units, constructing a microscopic model of an energy buffer layer and stress conduction network.
These units automatically assembled mid-air, rapidly forming a miniature fortress model the size of a fist, yet remarkably complex and precise in structure.
The fortress surface was not smooth but had optimum angles of inclination and honeycomb-shaped indentations, effectively deflecting and dispersing impacts.
More crucially, Duke could feel that through the fortress’s preset energy network, he could at any mont distribute the impact force evenly throughout the structure, potentially guiding part of the impactful energy to power internal weapon systems.
"It’s not a dead object but a defensive platform capable of bearing more functions," Duke showed a satisfied expression.
The Floating Cannon spell drew inspiration from the principle of miniature magic-guided cannons; traditional magic-guided cannons are bulky and slow to charge, while the Floating Cannon is quick, flexible, and deadly, utilizing swarm-style bombardnt.
Magic power and spiritual power are highly compressed to form dozens or even hundreds of miniature cannon seed bases.
These seeds can instantly adhere to tallic yellow sand, quickly forming mini, autonomous floating magic-guided cannons.
They have low energy consumption, fast firing, and can coordinate multi-angle attacks, specifically designed to break dense shields, disrupt spellcasting, and pinpoint-kill weak spots precisely.
With a thought, Duke could form a miniature floating cannon model within seconds.
"Single-shot power may be limited, but if a thousand, or ten thousand such floating cannons fired simultaneously, weaving a net of unavoidable destruction..." Duke pondered.
More importantly, these floating cannons could easily attach to the inner and outer walls of the Hive Barrier, achieving perfect integration of offense and defense deploynt.
With a wave of his hand, the floating cannon before him turned back into a pile of yellow sand, hovering around him, ready to be re-ford into a floating cannon at any ti.
