224 Assemble (1/2)
The Magic Tower had a library full of books on general magical knowledge.
There were also simple, but more important explanations and instructions about Long-Distance Teleportation.
Before Long-Distance Teleportation was activated, it would leave a hidden magic mark in place, which could only be detected by the spellcaster themselves, and even if they were separated from it by a dimension or two, it would not be affected unless it was forcibly uprooted by Dimensional Anchor, an anti-spatial spell.
The first successful Long-Distance Teleportation would perform teleportation in place, as there was only one magic mark.
And for the spellcaster to teleport somewhere else, either someone had to be willing to share their magic mark, or the spellcaster themselves would have to personally make a trip to their destination and use Teleportation once there, leaving their own private mark behind.
So, if it was a successful Teleportation, Roland should have just left a mark in place.
But just now, when the spell hadn't succeeded, Roland found a magic mark forcibly shoved into his consciousness.
If the spell continued to operate, he would be teleported to an unknown place.
He then immediately aborted the magic's operation.
Thanks to the unique specialty of Magic Power Control, Roland's control over the running flow of magic was probably second to none, excluding the gods.
After forcibly interrupting the spell, he didn't suffer any negative effects, but the unidentified magic mark in his consciousness that emitted peculiar fluctuations from time to time made him feel quite uncomfortable.
He immediately mobilized his mental power and tore this mark into pieces.
”No wonder this circulation route consumed almost all of my mana.” Roland laughed grimly, softly. ”So it's two spells and a trap.”
This spell model was actually two spells combined into one.
The first half of the route was meant to create an unidentified mark and then force it into the spellcaster's consciousness, while the second half was the teleportation.
Is this attempting to capture Mages who are masters of spatial magic?
It wasn't surprising that Roland immediately had such a suspicion because the spell model didn't have any special notes and the mark was forced into his head—it was full of malice.
It would be a wonder if it wasn't a trap.
”Who made it?”
It definitely wasn't Kaka.
Although the spell model was brought to Roland by Kaka, Kaka's magic abilities were actually very ordinary. He couldn't learn any kind of teleportation, let alone create a new type of spell that could insert a mark into a person's head.
Most importantly, these two kinds of spells merged into one was an extremely genius piece of work.
Roland recalled that he remembered Kaka had said that the spell model was borrowed from the headquarters.
Now that's interesting.
In the next two days, Roland began to eliminate the excess nodes in the spell model, and after two days of no sleep and non-stop testing, Roland finally recreated this compound spell and reverted it into two different spells.
Long-Distance Teleportation, after eliminating the extra nodes, was only eight hundred and seventy-five nodes in total.
And the number of nodes to go through was only one hundred and seventeen.
The degree of difficulty has decreased substantially.
And Roland saved the model of the other ”trap” spell.
He felt that he would use it in the future, and when he was stronger, such as after he was a Legend or a Demigod, he would teleport over to see where the destination of this spell was.
He was really curious.
In addition, this compound spell gave Roland a new idea as well.
