Wizard, I have a game board.

Chapter 293 Lorre's Speculations on the River of Time as Seen Through Macroscopic Insights
After the meeting, Lor returned to his study, sat behind his desk, and pulled out a parchment scroll containing all the basic runes of time and space functionality.

The first thing he needs to think about now is to carefully consider what runes to construct into sorcery to be incorporated into space jump sorcery.

Enhancing potential and striving to make him qualified to break through limits is the main goal, but he doesn't need to consider this too much, because as long as enough witchcraft is integrated, it will naturally be achieved.

His secondary goal is to make it more perfect or to make a certain aspect of it stronger; that is what he is focusing on.

"The primary uses of space-jump magic are teleportation, traveling, and strategic relocation," Lor pondered. "Integrating time runes into it doesn't seem particularly necessary?"

Time magic is indeed stronger than space magic in terms of attack, defense, and certain functionalities.

But when it comes to traveling, this thing seems to only have the time acceleration feature that's pretty good?
Most importantly, the time acceleration rune has already been integrated into the spacetime domain magic, and can be used at any time, so there is no need to integrate another one into the space jump magic.

Specialization is key; blindly believing in time-based theories is putting the cart before the horse.

For all these reasons, he decisively abandoned the idea of ​​incorporating time magic into space-jumping magic.

“Speaking solely of functional spatial runes, the runes that can enhance spatial jump magic include spatial breaking, spatial correction, and spatial linking,” Lor listed the basic spatial runes that could strengthen the functionality of spatial jump magic, according to their importance.

Space Breaker can increase the probability of him breaking through the blockade and leaving when the space is blocked by the enemy, making it an indispensable space rune.

Spatial correction allows him to significantly increase the distance he can travel when performing spatial jumps without spatial imprints.

When enhanced by spatial imprints, it can also slightly increase the accuracy of ultra-long spatial jumps.

As for spatial links, they can greatly increase the accuracy of long-distance spatial jumps when spatial imprints are present. They may not be very useful when moving within a plane group, but they are essential for interdimensional spatial jumps.

In addition, it can also enhance his control over spatial imprints.

There are also more than ten different spatial runes that can significantly enhance spatial jump magic.

Making a choice among them is a real challenge.

"Well, breaking the spatial seal is essential; we absolutely cannot give up on this."

Lor thought to himself, "I need to take the spatial link with me too. It will be crucial when we need to perform dimensional jumps in the future."

"As for spatial correction, we can wait and put it on the waiting list for now."

"In addition, we need to find two more spatial runes that mainly enhance the spatial imprint itself, primarily selecting runes that stabilize the spatial imprint."

"To perform a dimensional shift, spatial imprints are the most crucial element."

"If the spatial imprint is not strong enough, and we are unable to activate the plane cluster, all our current plans will become empty talk."

Having made a preliminary plan in mind, Lor did not hesitate and immediately began to deduce the first spatial magic he had chosen: Spatial Seal Breaking.

Since the last blood test was in Wizarding Year 7085, he wasn't in a hurry to use the Origin Point given to him by the player's arrival in Year 6500 to explore the Time-Based Rune.

After all, enhancing spatial jump magic doesn't require time runes, so it's better to wait until the player arrives in Wizarding Year 7000 and use it together.

The two visits will bring him a total of about 600 Origin Points, which he can use up in 50 years at most, making the timing just right.

During the next four hundred years, we should try to construct and integrate as many spells as possible into the space jump spell.

November 3, 6700 in the Wizarding Calendar.

On the continent of Milton, at the top of the Domenico Wizard Tower, in a large training room.

"It's really tough. I achieved the fourth ring before Lor, and the fifth ring before Sanchez and Vincentia, but I still broke through to the sixth ring later than all three of them." Domenico looked at the soul power in his sea of ​​consciousness, which had grown to its limit, and couldn't help but sigh.

He had already figured out the method to mutate soul fragments, but he was unable to break through because his soul power had not yet grown to the limit of the fifth ring.

Only now has he finally cultivated his soul power to the limit of the fifth ring.

After that, I'll have to mutate my soul fragments. I'd be lucky if I could break through before the trial officially begins.

"Fortunately, Lor and the others have already broken through, so it doesn't matter if I'm a little late," Domenico thought to himself. "Besides, as long as I break through, I'll be invincible until the end of the trial, and no one can withstand a single blow from me."

The soul system certainly has its flaws.

For example, it's impossible to fight beyond one's level, cultivation is slow, recovery is slow, and one cannot attack too many targets at once, and so on.

However, the fact that he could crush Lor and the other two within the same level was enough to satisfy him.

No one in the entire Wizarding League could do that except him.

November 1, 7002 in the Wizarding Calendar.

The player has descended upon the Wizarding World for the sixteenth time.

Two years have passed quickly. While they brought a batch of cheap wizarding slots to the Wizarding Alliance, they also brought Lor a considerable amount of Origin Points once again.

November 17, 7018 in the Wizarding Calendar.

On the top floor of the Lor Wizard Tower, in the study.

"Get in!" Lor used his mental power to push a massive rune model into a corner of the Origin Container Space Jump Spell.

"Crack crack crack—whoosh whoosh—"

The original container is rapidly expanding, causing the spacetime elements to surge continuously.

"Four hundred years of fusing two spatial magic spells, not bad." Lor looked at the primordial container, which had expanded slightly once again, and felt quite gratified.

With a slight thought, he released his mental energy from his sea of ​​consciousness, summoned the game panel, and fixed his gaze on the spatial jump spell.

Spatial Jump Magic (6.9 ring) (No 7th ring magic slot available, cannot be upgraded)

Features: (See Chapter 292 for details 1-3)
(New) 4: Break Seal. This feature makes space easier to tear, currently up to 7.0 rings of stable space can be torn apart.

(New) 5: Link. This feature can significantly enhance the connection with spatial imprints and slightly strengthen spatial imprint properties.

Integrating spatial linking magic into spatial jump magic did not grant it the potential to break through to the seventh ring of magic, which did not surprise Lor.

After all, the Space-Time Domain Magic has fused five magic spells in total, and it still doesn't have the potential to break through to the seventh-ring magic.

"With at most three more spells, or even just two more that I can fuse, I'll be able to possess my first true seventh-circle spell," Lor thought to himself.

He was filled with anticipation for that moment to arrive.

Most importantly, that day is not far away for him.

However, before that, he has to use up all the source points that players have accumulated over the years.

After closing the game panel, Lor gave the command in his mind again, "Open the sequence panel."

[Sequence: 97,658,773]

Permissions enabled: 1: Insight. Origin Points: 602, 35.71%

“Activate macroscopic insight,” Lor thought to himself.

"Whoosh-"

A familiar, vast, and boundless river of time, azure blue, once again appeared beneath his feet.

Lor looked up at the sky and skillfully began to analyze the time runes that were gathered together above.

Last time, he obtained a total of nine Time-based runes. This time, if he obtains nine more, he will be able to completely fulfill the contract he made with Blood, which also means that the trial is entering its countdown.

Forty years have passed in the blink of an eye.

"How could this be?" Lor opened the sequence panel again, looking at the remaining one hundred and twenty-two source points, his brows furrowing deeply.

Previously, when analyzing the time runes in the sky above the river of time, although there were occasional repetitions, the repetitions were not frequent.

Each time he thoroughly analyzes a region, he eventually gains two or three new time-based runes.

However, after thoroughly analyzing a region last time, not a single new time-based rune was found.

The only saving grace was that he had already collected eleven basic time runes, so completing the pact with Blood shouldn't be a problem.

"Many of the fundamental time runes unearthed from the scroll of the river of time are incomplete, with only 1% to 5% remaining. Yet, for so long, we have not been able to find a trace of them above the river of time as shown in the macroscopic insight."

Lor took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down, and thought to himself: "From this point of view, it's not because I've already searched for all the basic time runes that I've come up empty-handed."

"But the facts are undeniable, and coupled with the scroll of time and the various aspects of that river of time, could it be..."

A flash of inspiration struck him, and combining all the information, he suddenly realized an incredibly incredible possibility.

"The river of time that I see through macroscopic insight is not the real river of time. The real river of time is depicted in the scroll of time that blood gave me."

Lor thought to himself, "As for that river of time that I saw through macroscopic insight, is it actually the Dao of some great being of the Time faction?"

"Only in this way can everything that is happening now be explained."

If we trace this conclusion back, we can first explain why the Time River Scroll is different from the Time River seen through macroscopic insight; one has all the time runes condensed in the sky, while the other is surging with the river water.

They are not the same thing at all; it's normal for them to be different.

Secondly, if we consider those time runes that condense into a cluster on the sky above the river of time as the core of the laws of a great being, or something like the Dao Fruit, then we can explain why they condense into one.

This also explains why he was so efficient at acquiring time rune fragments from the macroscopic river of time he perceived. After all, he was directly exploiting the essence of the Dao, so it would be strange if his efficiency wasn't high.

This also explains why the time runes here are incomplete; it's normal that they didn't integrate all the basic time runes into the core of the law.

The reason why those fragments of the fundamental runes of time in the Scroll of Time sank to the bottom of the river is because they were formed naturally.

Finding Time Rune Fragments is slow and difficult, but it is also a logical step to achieve comprehensive results.

At this point in the deduction, everything has a reasonable explanation.

"Good heavens, what exactly are you?" Lor's eyes widened in disbelief as he stared at the sequence panel. "You actually allow me to directly see the source of the laws of a powerful being from the Time Faction, and you can do it without that being able to detect it?!"

If the being whose Dao Fruit he stole could have detected him, he wouldn't have remained completely unscathed for so long.

Even putting that aside, at the very least, that person should have reacted in some way, preventing him from calmly analyzing the time runes, right?

But the result?

He analyzed the runes for hundreds of years, but the river of time he had glimpsed through macroscopic insight showed absolutely no reaction.

From this point on, he truly realized how abnormal the sequence panel was.

The panel remained unchanged, offering no response to Lor's words.

After a long time.

Lor recovered from his shock and rubbed his temples. "Forget it, there's no point in thinking about this now. Let's just use up these Origin Points and see if we can get some more runes from that person's Law Origin."

If he had recognized this fact from the beginning, he certainly wouldn't have dared to take the risk of using the Origin Point.

But since nothing has happened for so long, he naturally has nothing to fear anymore.

What he should do now is to squeeze out all the remaining value from the great source of existence and ensure that he gets all the benefits.

"Activate macroscopic insight," Lor decisively commanded in his mind.

"Whoosh-"

It was as if the unchanging river of time had reappeared before his eyes.

However, compared to before, the way he looks at this thing has changed now.

This is the very essence of the Dao of a powerful being of the Time faction!

Now that the sequence panel is right in front of him, how can he remain calm?
"Calm down! Calm down! Calm down!" Lor kept giving himself these reminders.

After a moment, he finally suppressed his almost boiling emotions, raised his head, and selected a section of the sky that he had never analyzed before to begin analyzing.

once.
Ten times
百次
"What a pity." After Lor exhausted all 122 remaining Origin Points on the Sequence Panel, he looked at the extra Time Rune on his notebook and couldn't help but sigh.

Just as he had predicted, the number of unfamiliar rune fragments in the time runes condensed above the sky, as observed by his macroscopic insight, was rapidly decreasing.

Previously, 122 Origin Points could fill at least three Time Runes, but now it can only fill one.

Lor flipped five pages forward in his notebook, looking at the eleven nearly complete time-based runes.

If he's not mistaken, once he completes these eleven basic time runes, he'll no longer be able to obtain new time runes from the celestial dome as seen through macroscopic insight.

But the basic runes for foreseeing the future and reversing time that he most desired had not even appeared in sight.
The usefulness of knowing the future goes without saying, but time travel is related to immortality.

These two functions are the ultimate goal of his tireless pursuit of the time faction.

This situation really put him in an awkward position.

"Don't panic, maybe those two runes are among these incomplete runes?" Lor comforted himself. "Even if they're not there, we can just look for them slowly in the Scroll of Time."

He closed the parchment scroll and looked at the scroll depicting the river of time on the opposite wall with a hint of resentment.

The next blood test is in two years. Since we're just sitting around doing nothing, we might as well try to get some more Time Base Rune Fragments from this thing.

Nineteen hundred years later, even this thing will be taken back by the blood. He can only get it back when he gathers 100,000 Law Points.
