Gunfire, Punk and Necromancer

When Miss Sick was summoned in a state full of resentment, her shadow slave's energy response was very strong, like a top-level active shadow slave. If you can find a way to cover her up, the effect will only be better when used on yourself.

First of all, we need to understand what the shadow energy reaction is and why all implants, shadow weapons, and shadow spells can produce it. Zhuang Xuteng started from a more extreme situation: an image slave control chip used in electrical equipment. This chip itself does not contain active materials, and the energy required for work requires an external supply. At this time, when the Eye of Shadow sweeps across, it will also emit shadow energy reaction.

"It has no energy of its own and cannot emit signals, so it is wrong to say that it 'dissipates' shadow energy." Zhuang Xuteng believes that the Eye of Shadow spell consumes mana when it is cast. This part of mana, as well as the energy of the shadow, will After touching the shadow slave device, the response of the shadow slave device is stimulated, which generates a signal that can be recognized.

Based on past practical experience, Zhuang Xuteng summarized several states of searching for shadow energy signals. In most cases, when you look directly with both eyes, objects with shadow energy are in your field of vision, and you can see them most clearly at this time. In another case, the shadow energy signal can only form a blurry impression behind the door or door behind the wall, and it can only become clearer when you get closer.

There is a third type that is relatively rare, and that is the mirror surface. Zhuang Xuteng once used the reflection formed by the glass window to see the shadow energy signal on the other side of the room; while searching the room for enemies, he used the bathroom mirror to confirm the enemy hiding in the bathtub. In actual combat, Wraith Jelly is more useful at this time and is also his main source of intelligence. The Eye of Shadow is just an auxiliary, providing information about the strength of the enemy's implant, allowing him to predict the intensity of the battle.

"Mirror...mirror..." Zhuang Xuteng had an idea. He found several mirrors and adjusted their angles to form a special reflection path. Without the use of Wraith Jelly, Zhuang Xuteng could only see the sick lady behind the obstruction through the mirror. At this time, he tested the effect of the Shadow Eye.

One group of experiments, two groups, and a third group... Zhuang Xuteng kept changing the contents of the experiments and gradually figured out some rules. First of all, objects will not actively emit shadow energy signals; secondly, after casting Shadow Eyes, the main detection direction is directly in front of the eyes, followed by a nearly 180-degree field of view frontally, and the caster will also detect all objects at the same time. The energy of the Eye of Shadow radiates in this direction, but this part of the energy is very weak and the effect is not obvious.

The Eye of Shadow also has some properties, such as its ability to penetrate thin objects. The sparser the better, the more gaps there are and the easier it is to be penetrated. Secondly, the Eye of Shadow can reflect on a smooth surface, its reflection ability is close to the properties of light, and the properties of the returned signal are also close to visible light.

The main reason why it is close to visible light is that it is not really visible. Zhuang Xuteng used the Eye of Shadow. If the reflected signal is visible light, everyone around him can see it, and even the person being detected can see it. This is obviously not in line with the actual situation.

Throughout the entire detection process, it was obvious that the weak link was the feedback signal from the shadow energy, and Zhuang Xuteng decided to make a fuss about it. Since the feedback signal has the reflective nature of light, as long as it is not reflected toward the detection source, an effect similar to invisibility can be achieved.

The mirror used in the experiment provided Zhuang Xuteng with ideas. Specular reflection can easily control the direction. As long as the feedback signal emitted by the detected object is reflected to the ground, especially to the ground at the feet of the detected object, it is almost impossible for it to return to the detector. Zhuang Xuteng thought of single-transparent glass, which might be able to imitate that state...

Just do it if you think of it. Anyway, this kind of material is easy to find. You don’t even need to go to the black market. You can buy it directly from decoration companies or home furnishing stores. After he disguised himself, he went shopping. Apart from seeing the dream fog all over the streets and the puppet advertisements that made him uncomfortable, the purchase process went smoothly, and the various reflectors in the furniture store also gave him some new ideas. ideas.

After some tossing, he came up with a plan: let the mirror material form an inverted pot, covering himself, so that the feedback signals emitted by the body would be reflected to the ground after passing through the mirror pot.

In theory, this can definitely prevent the feedback signal from leaving the range of the "pot" and all being wasted on the ground. However, in actual operation, the difficulty is too high. First of all, the "pot" needs to have a perfect shape, and the control of the reflection angle must be flawless in every detail. Then, the mirror material used in this pot has absolutely no way of integrating with the environment. It can retain feedback signals, but it cannot eliminate the observer's suspicion. This is a huge contradiction.

After wandering around for a long time, I seemed to have reached a dead end with no solution at all. This reflection method is not as effective as using a wraith servant to roll up the mixed sand and completely cover the detected object to isolate the feedback signal. At least the Wraith Servant can change its shape. In addition to always looking dusty due to the mixed sand, it always has the opportunity to coordinate with the surrounding environment.

This is the best solution at present. Bring a can of mixed sand and let the servants evenly cover themselves with the sand. After using it, they can put the sand back for next time. This is definitely far ahead of the big trucks carrying oil layers. Quilt. But if you think about it carefully, you can still find many problems. The Wraith Spirit Servant cannot reveal any sand, and Zhuang Xuteng cannot use all the Wraith Spirit Jelly to find sand. Even if a strong wind blows, the servant of the resentful spirit may not be able to catch the sand, and the mixed sand blown by the wind itself may expose Zhuang Xuteng.

The current situation makes Zhuang Xuteng feel that his brain is not enough. He does not believe that there are unsolvable problems. "Can't be affected by emotions, I can definitely find ideas to solve the problem." He hinted to himself, and then punched for a while to completely heat up his body, burning away all the irritating emotions caused by thinking with the heat, and then Make yourself a high-calorie meal to put you in a good mood, and then think about it while you eat.

By reviewing the entire experimental process from the beginning, by asking every step: Is there no other way? He really found a loophole in his thinking. The feedback signal of shadow energy can be reflected on various surfaces, so when does it end? Of course when it is collected by the detection system. This detection system can be the Eye of Shadow spell, a shadow slave for detection, or an implant like the Eye of Kaho. In short, when the feedback signal is collected by the detector, it will be converted into a signal to present the detection results. Its life as a feedback signal is complete.

Um, is it possible to make it perfect in advance?

Zhuang Xuteng was suddenly startled. He had a new idea: wrap the target to be hidden with a detector. No matter how many other detectors there are, as long as all the feedback signals are received, there will be nothing for others to use. Anyone else would definitely not be able to do this - using an implant like the Eye of Kaho to completely wrap a target would be impossible in this world.

But it is possible for Zhuang Xuteng to do it. He only needs to combine the Servant of the Wraith with the Eye of Shadow spell. A wraith servant can have no physical form, so it can remain unobservable. When it is combined with the Eye of Shadow, it becomes the carrier of the spell, which is equivalent to giving the Eye of Shadow spell a form. This form can be a cover that wraps the target object.

The Wraith Servant that becomes the carrier of the Shadow Eye spell will release energy to the surroundings, causing the Shadow Servant to react, but this reaction will only create a Shadow Servant energy feedback signal. In the scene envisioned by Zhuang Xuteng, the Shadow Eye servant wraps himself up. Although there will be a lot of shadow energy signals around him, these feedback signals are only useful to the detector and will never be seen without turning on the detector.

Assuming that the enemy begins to detect the surrounding shadow energy, its detector will also cause all shadow objects to send out feedback signals. In this process, the enemy will not be able to filter out the Shadow Eye servants from its influence on the surrounding world. behavior, so the Eye of Shadow servant is safe. At this time, the feedback signal sent by Zhuang Xuteng under the influence of the Eye of Shadow, as well as the feedback signal sent by the enemy's detection, will be absorbed by the servant of the Eye of Shadow that completely covers him, and become the perception of the servant, so the enemy will Can't receive any feedback signal...

After figuring out this method, Zhuang Xuteng collapsed immediately, and then he panicked a little. After landing, he quickly thought about it again, and even wrote down his ideas to check if there were any problems with it.

"Everything seems to be right..." Zhuang Xuteng smiled proudly. It was rare for him to experience the feeling of independently finding the answer to a difficult problem. Next, he began to try to combine the Wraith Servant and Shadow Eye spells, and the successful experience of combining ghost and bone spear spells helped him save a lot of time.

The Eye of Shadow, a spell that does not require an activation action and will continue to take effect after being cast, fully meets the conditions to be combined with the Servant of the Wraith. The combination is not difficult, and the final completion degree is also very good. After the Shadow Eye servant was completed, Zhuang Xuteng controlled it to transform and wrap the sick lady. As the spirit servants gradually filled the space around the sick lady, the bandaged-faced ghost could still be seen with the naked eye, but the shadow energy signal could no longer be seen with the eyes of the shadow.

"Success!" Zhuang Xuteng raised his arms and shouted, and then he continued to advance the experiment. After many verifications, the effect of the Shadow Eye servant is very good. Not only can it deceive the Shadow Eye spell, but the Eye of Kahuo will also be blinded by it. From this, it can be seen that Zhuang Xuteng's idea can indeed make him appear in front of company personnel. Try to be completely invisible.

Zhuang Xuteng asked the Shadow Eye servant to wrap himself up, and then stood in front of the mirror. He also could not find his own shadow energy response, and at the same time, his other observation abilities were not affected at all. Use the Eye of Kaho to switch between various observation modes. Infrared, low-light, etc. are the same as before. Only the X-ray perspective feels a little blurry.

That is to say, Zhuang Xuteng's superior observation and image memory can detect this difference. It is impossible for others to detect the problem when unconsciously comparing it. Moreover, the X-ray function itself takes effect very close, so close that it has entered Zhuang Xuteng's "two-step attack range", that is, it has entered the circle that can be hit by raising his hand. If the enemy really reaches this distance, the problem will definitely not be caused by the energy feedback from the shadow first, so this phenomenon can be ignored.

The real problem areas are the other two. The high mana consumption is a relatively minor problem: Zhuang Xuteng calculated the speed at which it recovers mana. Unless the total mana is increased by more than six times or the recovery speed is quadrupled, it will not be able to hide throughout the day.

Another problem remains unsolved for the time being: the Shadow Eye servant will absorb all shadow energy feedback signals, so when it covers Zhuang Xuteng, Zhuang Xuteng cannot receive outside signals, and his Shadow Eye is useless. After all, it can't be perfect, just like hiding safely and looking around are inherently contradictory. When you are hiding, just hide well and just take some time to do the investigation work. This is acceptable. Generally speaking, the advantages far outweigh the disadvantages. .

Now that this method works and the spell is finalized, it's time to give it a name. Zhuang Xuteng thought for a long time and finally came up with the name "Thousand Eyes Cloak". First of all, the essence of this spell is to use the Eye of Shadow on the servant of the resentful spirit, making it seem to have a thousand eyes, seeing all the shadows and returning energy. Secondly, it can transform and cover the whole person like a cloak. Of course Zhuang Xuteng knew that it was actually more like an upside-down pot, or a cell with no doors or windows, or a tailor-made coffin, but these more vivid descriptions were definitely not as nice as a cloak, so it was called the Thousand-Eyed Cloak.

Zhuang Xuteng also tried to improve the problem that the Thousand-Eyed Cloak would prevent the Eye of Shadow from seeing the outside world. He made the spirit servants cover his whole body but exposed one eye, which formed a single tube shape on the eye to communicate with the outside world. After such a mess, he could indeed see the shadow energy reaction again, but his detection range was extremely narrow and he could only observe obvious objects at close range. It was difficult for him to focus on medium and long distances.

Moreover, after opening this hole, there is a possibility of being observed, which Zhuang Xuteng cannot accept. The Thousand-Eyed Cloak was developed in order to avoid being observed at all, and it certainly shouldn't be a reversal of research.

"This is really a good thing. It can be used not only by yourself, but also by others. With a cloak, it is safe and reliable..." Since there was no one in private, Zhuang Xuteng allowed himself to be proud for a while before stopping this unhelpful behavior. "The Cloak of Thousand Eyes can only prevent shadow detection, and is useless for other detection methods. Wait, if you combine the shadow and the eye of shadow, in a dark environment, using the light absorption of the shadow, you should be able to safely Disguised as a shadow, he avoided a lot of detection.”

The shadow version of Thousand Eyes Cloak can help companions try to hide under certain conditions, which is somewhat useful. After Zhuang Xuteng opened his mind, he immediately thought of the sick lady. If she were combined with the Eye of Shadow... No, it seemed to be of no use. The sick lady's form is basically fixed. She cannot wrap herself up, so she cannot independently obtain the shadow energy signal shielding effect in this way. The Eye of Shadow can only give her the ability to see the strength and distribution of shadow energy in the surrounding environment, but this is of little use to her. Miss Sick pursues grievances, which is a side effect, rather than a "positive effect" such as feedback signals.

If you want to make the sick lady invisible, you can only rely on the Thousand Eyes Cloak and have two vengeful summons present at the same time. The higher the cost, the greater the cost. At least it will give the sick lady the ability to attack the "suspected purple-skinned puppet".

"If you want to take this ability further, you need to solve the basic problem: How to safely know that you are being and will soon be detected by shadow energy?"

If you think of a spell like Eye of Shadow as a searchlight, it's a question of "how to find out that the searchlight is working." This requires an in-depth study of the nature of Shadow Clan spells and Shadow Clan, and exploring the nature of Shadow Clan related technologies from a more basic position. Zhuang Xuteng scratched his head and decided to take a long-term approach. The top priority is to increase the total amount of mana, increase the recovery speed, and learn more spells to achieve permutations and combinations at the technical application level.
