This isn't a souls-like game at all.

This magic is very useful against more agile enemies.

"I understand. The tracking effect is produced by refined magic power. Once the magic arrow becomes a solid object, it will no longer be able to track.

"Is there any way to solve this problem?"

He thought for a moment and then looked at the [Shoot] option again.

"Wait a minute, can this be further deconstructed?"

He was stunned for a moment, then continued to deconstruct the [Projectile] without hesitation.

He then obtained three sub-items: [Tracking], [Speed], and [Appearance].

"Is it still possible? Then can [Magic] and [Thrust] also be deconstructed?"

He tried again and was completely stunned.

Continue to deconstruct [Magic] and obtain three subcategories that can be further deconstructed: [Magic Attributes], [Magic Concentration], and [Refinition Level], as well as two subcategories that cannot be deconstructed anymore: [Magic Explosion] and [Vulnerability Infection].

By deconstructing [Thrust], we get the deconstructible subclass of [Physical Properties] and the subclass of [Penetration] which cannot be deconstructed any further.

"Is a tracking magic arrow so complicated?"

He was stunned for a moment, then adjusted his personal panel and turned to the [Shedding Spirit Waterfall] which currently had the highest intelligence requirement of 68 points.

He tried to deconstruct it, and then the time required to completely deconstruct this magic suddenly appeared in his mind.

"It actually took about half a year..."

He frowned, "Furthermore, this speed is only possible with the 45% deconstruction time reduction granted by Zhige Xunwen..."

Now he finally understood the importance of concentration practice.

"If I collect 100%, wouldn't it be deconstructed in seconds? I guess I need to collect more concentration techniques."

Glancing at his personal panel, he continued to select other magic to deconstruct.

By the time the azure eternal moon descended from the sky and Alice woke up at daybreak, he had completely deconstructed several simple spells and, based on magic splashing, transformed them into another type of magic with completely different effects through deconstruction.

"Regarding this deconstructed magic, I call it the Splashing Magic Hammer!"

Chapter 264 [Ode to the Earth] and the Dragon Attack on the City (6k)

"Splash...Magic Hammer?"

After listening to Ye Yiyi's introduction, Alice, an expert in the magic of kings, showed a lot of interest.

"Then give it a try. Let me see how the magic you spent an entire night researching actually performs."

"Then you'll have to watch carefully."

Ye Yiyi smiled, pulled the reins, and asked Virgil to stop by a pond on the side of the road.

Then he dismounted and took out the Moonlight Spear from behind.

The Moonlight Spear is a magic catalyst weapon that can be used to cast magic and can also be used as a spear.

As a spear, it possesses powerful moonlight combat skills and has no durability limit, and as a catalyst, it has S-level intelligence compensation, which is second to none among all staffs.

It is the perfect place to experiment with new deconstructed magic.

Facing the pond, Ye Yiyi pointed his spear, which was filled with azure moonlight, forward, and activated the deconstructed version of [Magic Splash] - [Splashing Magic Hammer]

Dazzling white light gathered from all directions and condensed into a white ball of light at the tip of the gun.

"Oh? This power?"

Alice, who was watching this scene beside him, raised her eyebrows slightly.

Ye Yiyi stared at the ball of light at the tip of the gun until it condensed to the size of a human head, then he raised the gun and swung it forward violently.

"Shh!"

The ball of light shattered, and a blinding white light flashed by.

The next moment, dozens of white one-handed hammers appeared out of thin air and flew towards him in a spiral.

But the one-handed hammer lost power before it flew far and fell into the water in a spin.

"Bang! Bang!"

The one-handed hammer fell into the water, splashing a large amount of water and causing ripples on the surface of the lake, and then there was no trace left.

"?"

Alice was stunned for a moment and turned to look at Ye Yiyi.

"and then?"

"Then……"

Ye Yiyi was also stunned and looked down at the lake.

After a while, several fish with their bellies turned upside down emerged from the water droplets.

"fish?"

He was stunned for a moment, as if he hadn't reacted yet.

I spent the entire night working on magic, and it took a lot of effort to create this splashing magic hammer, and all it did was a tiny splash?

He silently summoned his personal panel to check the transformed magic.

Comprehensive evaluation: Click here to fill in

After scanning all the way down and finally coming to the comprehensive evaluation column, Ye Yiyi's mouth twitched.

"I made a hammer, and I evaluated it..."

He muttered to himself, dismissed his personal panel, and turned his grief and anger into appetite. He fetched pots and pans from behind him and shouted at Alice, whose expression gradually became dull.

"Alice, go get some firewood. We'll have fish for breakfast!"

"???"

Alice frowned slightly, a little confused when she heard that.

Aren't you going to show me the new magic you've researched?

Why did the demonstration session suddenly turn into a picnic?

She watched Ye Yiyi take out a crossbow from behind her, tie a rope to the crossbow arrow, shoot another arrow through the heart of the fish that died from unknown magic, and then pull the rope to drag it over. Her expression gradually became dull.

She looked around blankly and saw some low bushes not far away, so she went there to pick up some firewood.

At this moment, Ye Yiyi had already set up the stove, scaled the fish, removed the internal organs, and put it in the pot waiting to be cooked.

"..."

Alice was a little skeptical and had to put down the firewood. She watched Ye Yiyi take out a short axe and chop the firewood into equal lengths, which he stuffed under the stove made of stones.

"What are you...doing?"

She looked at Ye Yiyi and snapped his fingers, lit the fire under the stove, and began to add all kinds of strange ingredients and seasonings into the pot. Finally, she couldn't help but ask.

"Have breakfast."

Ye Yiyi glanced at the rising sun on the horizon and looked at Alice with some surprise.

"It's morning already, aren't you hungry?"

"A little……"

"That's it."

Ye Yiyi glanced at the gradually boiling soup in the pot, stirred it with an iron spoon, and suddenly couldn't help sighing.

"Of course, the more important reason is that I discovered that the magic I had created after racking my brains was far from what I had imagined and had absolutely no practical value..."

"how could be?"

Alice finally reacted and tried to suppress her laughter as she pointed at the pot.

“Isn’t this practical value?”

"What practical value does this have?" Ye Yiyi rolled her eyes. "Those fish were just unlucky. They were knocked unconscious by the hammer..."

"So what was your original idea?"

"When I wave my staff, hundreds of crystal hammers fly out and smash the enemy to death."

"As for the results, there were fewer of them, and they didn't fly far enough," Alice commented, recalling the scene just now.

"And preparing the magic takes too long. That's enough time for a Royal Guard Knight to charge back and forth four or five times."

"I know..." Ye Yiyi said sullenly, "My idea is wrong. The hammer shape can't fly too far, and increasing the number of projectiles will greatly increase consumption. There's no other way. I can only reduce it from 20 to 10, but the consumption will still increase.

"As for the preparation time, that's actually the time it takes to refine your magic power, or charge it... After all, the longer it charges, the higher the damage.

"But judging by the results, this thing is completely useless..."

Alice smiled when she heard this, and sat down on a protruding stone nearby. Then she supported her knees with her hands, cupped her cheeks with her palms, and spoke as she looked at Ye Yiyi, who was stirring the iron pot with a sullen face.

"Don't lose heart. Failure is common on the road to creating new techniques. Expecting success in one night is something even the kings can't do."

"I know you're trying to comfort me." Ye Yiyi sighed helplessly, "But the problem is, that's not creating new magic, it's modifying existing magic."

"Reform?"

Alice rolled her eyes, and then she smiled and said,

"Although I've never used magic, I am a researcher of magic after all. Although the powers are different, there are also similarities... So, do you want me to give you some advice?"

Ye Yiyi thought about it and said to herself, "That's right."

Isn't there a magic teacher next to her? Although Alice doesn't know magic, she has been with the kings and survived the entire war. She must have rich vision and experience.

So while he kept an eye on the food in the pot, he chatted with Alice about the effects of deconstructing everything.

He then received suggestions on how to deconstruct the magic of [Magic Splash].

"Since this magic itself is a range-of-effect physical damage spell, you don't need to worry about the hammer's appearance.

"The hammer is meant to be held in your hand. Throwing it out won't have any good effect. It's better to use the magic itself to its full potential."

"Its own advantages?" Ye Yiyi seemed to be thinking about it.
