16 Taking Another Step (1/2)
Wallace took out the silver sphere inside the Artifact Forging Box and observed it for a while. People may think why would a device specializing with cancelling magic jammer requires a 4th gen magic structure inside. Why can't we just input the 5th gen magic structure itself on the artifact which can be activated by magicians by pouring mana into it? Is the addition of 4th gen really required?
After Wallace poured mana on the artifact and triggered its mechanism, the silver sphere split open again at the center. But this time, a blue wave of light started to undulate starting at the center of the sphere. This wave actually covered the whole room he was in.
Wallace smiled upon seeing this. The cover of the canceller was larger than he expected. It should be about 50 meters radius. He checked the opened sphere and looked at the 4 sides where 3 empty slot is laid, as the 4th slot was occupied by Jax stone, where the 5th gen magic structure is placed.
The 3 empty slot is obviously in consideration for future upgrades of this sphere. It means three 5th gen magic structure can still be placed that would further improve the ability of mana artifact's user. Wallace still has some plans for this.
Apparently, due to high complexity of Magic Jammer Canceller, the whole crystal was occupied by only this one magic structure. It doesn't possess auxillary magic skills like how other magic structure has. To solve this problem, that's where the 3 available slot will be used.
”I'd register the mana structure name as Magic Jammer Canceller. Hmm.. but for this new mana artifact. I shall call it... The Silver Egg.. it doesn't sound appropriate.. Sphere of Magic? Mana Sphere? Silver Orb?
Naming is too hard, I'll just call you Silver Orb.”
Standard combat magicians should be capable of multitasking 2 mana artifact at the very least. This Silver Orb, once fully equipped with four 5th gen magic structure can still be treated as one mana artifact with the arrangement that Wallace made.
Apparently, magic engineers here focused more on studying better 5th gen magic structures. The study of material advancement isn't keeping up. So Wallace also has plans for some technological advancement here, but it will all depend if he could successfully retrieve the spaceship in good condition. He requires the assistance of the A.I. in the spaceship for further development.
Although he was genetically enhanced, it was his previous body who achieved it. During the soul merge or reincarnation in his current body, only the enhanced intelligence and knowledge was carried over. But it has it's limits so he will be needing the spaceship's A.I.
This is another thing that Wallace is trying to look into, as he wasn't quite comfortable on how weak this body is. Even though he has magic with him, he will only feel more safe if his physical strength could keep up. The Body Strengthening potion he consumed before had given him a hope for his futher physical improvement.
After naming his mana artifact, he heard a familiar sound of notification in his mind.
[ Congratulations User! You have successfully created your very first mana artifact!

Ding!

[ Potion of Divine Sense
A potion containing mysterious origin. Consuming this will allow the person to have divine sense. ]
The description wasn't helpful at all. He could just vaguely guess it for now base on it's name. He did not consume it immediately as he was aware that something could happen to his body once he drank the potion. It would be best if he will drink it once he is on his apartment.
Wallace cleaned the forging room before he left. It was already 6:30 in the evening when he was done and only a couple of students and some guards stationed at the Academy can be seen.
