Arcane Lord

After being asked a series of questions, Tilak was a little overwhelmed. He had never received such a level of attention before. He stammered and said:

"Sir, there is enough support, and the research is going very well, but there are just a few people!"

A little crowded? Xia Duo understood immediately upon hearing this that a "magic battery" was needed.

The energy of a single mage always takes priority. If other mages cooperate with him to perform coordinated resonance casting, it will greatly reduce his own consumption, and he can conduct more experiments.

Of course, if there are more people, you can also let others conduct the experiment. As long as the experimenter can fully understand the ideas of the project leader, it is essentially not much different from synergistic resonance casting.

And because the contract Tilak signed with the Tower of Time directly bought out the new achievements, he didn't care about letting more people participate. On the contrary, the more people there were, the faster the research would be, and he would be able to get what he wanted faster.

Shado also somewhat understood Tilak's thoughts, but he didn't mind. On the contrary, he was happy to see it. Perhaps the transformation of the Tower of Time could start from Tilak's research laboratory.

After thinking about it, he pulled Dean aside, cast a sound barrier, and then asked: "How many preliminary members are there in the organization now? How many quasi-members are there?"

Dean is very familiar with the members of the organization. When he heard Sha Duo's inquiry, he immediately said without hesitation, "There are seven reserve members and 25 associate members. In addition, there are many apprentices who are also actively moving closer to the organization."

"very good!"

Xia Duo praised him without hesitation. He didn't expect that there were as many as seven preliminary members of the organization, which was equivalent to seven official mages scheduled.

In addition, there are 25 quasi-members, all of whom have the potential to be formal mages, not to mention many active members.

Unknowingly, the organization has grown to this point, which makes Sha Duo even more certain that the Tower of Time has only one way to transform, because other Mage Towers have already started.

"Taling, open up a new authority for the personnel management of the Tower of Time, tentatively named 'Study Group', and transfer the relationships of Dean, Sammy, Edrich, and Devine to the study group. Also help me make an appointment with Master Depak in the afternoon Meet at 4 o’clock.”

"Agent Xia Duo, new permissions have been opened. Please set the specific permissions yourself."

Xia Duo has not obtained any special privileges for the time being, but has made the organization independent to facilitate operations.

As for the name, the organization no longer needs to hide it, so the name is still needed, but it is still used as a "study group" for now, and the official name will be determined later.

Xia Duo actually doesn't care much about the title, as long as the organization is the one he wants.

"Dean, have you received the notification from the tower spirit?"

"I got it, but this -"

"From now on, the organization will be a formal organization. Preparatory members and associate members will be added to it. In addition, I will give you another task to develop Tilak into an organization member."

"Tilak?"

"Yes!" Xia Duo said affirmatively.

In fact, it was his idea to bring Tilak into the organization early on. After all, it was a bit deviant for the Tower of Time mages to independently host a special project for a low-level mage. However, it was just that the matter had nothing to do with them, so they did not express any objection.

But from another perspective, Tilak actually represents the power of development and progress. Regardless of his own thoughts, his existence is consistent with the philosophy of the organization.

Cooperation, openness, sharing and win-win, what are they for? Development and progress!

…

After removing the soundproof barrier, Sha Duo heard others discussing the new permissions prompted by the tower spirit. Tilak also curiously asked this and that, seeming to have a lot of interest in the "study group".

"Tilak, I'll give you six more people!"

These six people are actually the other six people except Donald among the seven preliminary members of the organization.

When Tilak heard this, he was overjoyed. He just said it casually, but he didn't expect that Sha Duo would actually increase his manpower, "Lord Sha Duo, I am really grateful for your support!"

"You're welcome. If you need anything else, as long as it's related to research, I'll try my best to satisfy you." Xia Duo attaches great importance to the research on permanent magic, so naturally he will not hesitate to support it.

"No, no, no!" Tilak still knew to give up when he was ready, and at the same time made a promise, "I will definitely produce results as quickly as possible!"

"Don't be anxious, be steady!"

In fact, Xia Duo felt a little anxious, but this was more of a worry about the future and the unknown, "Stop talking about this, now take me to see your recent research progress."

"Oh, okay, sir, please come with me!"

With that said, he took Xia Duo and walked inside.

After mastering a new project on his own, Tilak's residence and research room were moved to another place. The biggest difference between this research room and an ordinary residence is that——

Both the general laboratory and the spell laboratory are of the highest standard!

This was a high specification that even Shado himself had not used. It was indeed a bit redundant for Tilak, but it also showed that Shado valued his project.

Coming to the inner room, this is a general laboratory with multiple movable standard experimental benches. The current layout here is in a "冂" shape, and the center is for collaborative resonance spell casting.

At this moment, the experimental table is filled with all kinds of materials. Only the innermost experimental table facing the door has an area for the alchemy circle, but it is also messy.

Tilak's research actually didn't make much use of the alchemy circle.

Generally speaking, there are two ways to create magic items. One is through [Magic Constancy], but this method has a higher operating threshold and requires at least a high-level mage.

The other method is to connect and fix the strings of the magic network through materials such as mithril and gemstones, similar to magic scrolls, to create specific effects. This requires the extensive use of alchemical arrays.

Tilak's permanent magic project combines these two manufacturing methods, which requires the use of magic materials and a certain constant effect.

But relatively speaking, there is no need to build precise energy channels like connecting and fixing the strings of the magic network, and there is no high threshold like [Magic Constancy].

Xia Duo's view of this kind of magic item is that it is a monkey version, not high quality, not very stable, but it can be used. The most important thing is that it is low-priced and easier to popularize.

At the same time, it is easier to update and iterate.

Moreover, the development and progress are also extremely impressive, and precise energy channels are further added to ensure stability while also having the variability of [Magic Constancy].

However, it is still too early to talk about the long-term prospects. Let's take a look at the progress of Tilak first. Thinking of the plans mentioned in the Tilak project application document, Sha Duo can't help but look forward to how far they have achieved it:

"Tilak?"

Tilak understood immediately, ran to the innermost place in a few steps, picked up a face-sized mirror from the experimental table, and handed it to Sha Duo like a treasure, "Sir, this is the most successful magic item currently!"

Is there a finished product so soon?

Xia Duo took the mirror and took a look. From the surface, it looked like the most ordinary silver mirror. It was shaped through an alchemical formation. There were many mithril patterns on the mirror surface that didn't look obvious.

Under magic vision, these mithril patterns are not completely connected to the strings of the magic network.

It looks like a defective product.
