173: Chapter 0173 Message Modification
Sensing that the effect of the new sorcery had greatly improved, he picked up the flying message and called Felina:
“Felina, come to the Laboratory; I have something new to show you.”
Ten minutes later...
Felina pushed the door open and entered, her golden curly hair tied into a high ponytail, her pale purple eyes filled with curiosity:
“Hubby, what's the rush?”
Her fingertips pinched the corner of her clothes, and her eyes lit up when she saw the sorcery runes in Li Size's hand:
“Is this... the modified Communication Spell?”
“That's right, the range has increased to 375 kilometers, and information can be transmitted between specific rune marks through an imagined carrier.
First, receive my Communication Mark; don't resist.”
Li Size smiled and cast the Communication Technique (Modified).
As the sorcery model was successfully constructed in his consciousness space, several runes appeared in the Void Realm, eventually manifesting as a chibi-style transparent Li Size that rushed toward the center of Felina's brow.
Felina felt a strange fluctuation trying to link with her.
She knew this was what Li Size called “his specific Communication Mark.”
Choosing to accept in her heart, that communication rune mark disappeared into her mind.
Seeing this, Li Size smiled and asked Felina through the Communication Spell:
“Felina, can you hear me?”
The illusory, transparent Communication Mark appeared in Felina's field of vision; only she could see it, while the curious Violet next to her could not.
The words spoken by the chibi Li Size were also transmitted mentally, so Violet nearby could not hear them.
Felina said joyfully:
“It's quite secure, and more convenient than communication nodes.
It's just that the distance is a bit short, only covering 375 kilometers. Can it only transmit sound?”
Li Size nodded and said with a slight hint of regret:
“For now, it can only transmit sound.
The Duchy's communication System has been developed over countless years; it's definitely impossible for us to achieve the same effect with just one sorcery.”
Felina also nodded in comfort:
“That's true.
But being able to transmit sound is already very good. We no longer have to worry about being eavesdropped on by the authorities or Feiting during communications.”
Li Size nodded and said confidently:
“If there are similar sorceries or knowledge for me to learn, I can continuously improve this sorcery to the point where it can transmit images.
That day won't be too far off.
Besides, if we advance to Formal Wizards, none of this will be an issue.
A First Ring Communication Spell can transmit images in real-time.”
Sorcery Recording and image transmission are only covered by First Ring knowledge because the information involved is too complex.
But with the Pay-to-Win System, Li Size was somewhat confident he could achieve some of these functions ahead of time by continuously modifying this sorcery.
Pausing for a moment, Li Size answered another of Felina's questions:
“As for the distance issue, it can be resolved by setting up Communication Relay Nodes every 200 to 300 kilometers.
Its function is similar to the Communication Center Nodes spread across various small towns.
This way, even if I am far away in the Duchy's capital in the north, you all in the Monte Province can still communicate.”
Felina looked thoughtful; she now had nothing but blind trust in what Li Size said:
“Then as our little sorcerer donkey sales network spreads across the country, we can also install these Communication Relay Nodes.
That would be another communication network!”
Li Size nodded and then shook his head slightly:
“It's fine for us to contact each other.
But after all, relay nodes are far inferior to Communication Center Nodes; a Communication Center Node can relay everyone's information.
However, the relay nodes I'm talking about have strong proprietary attributes. For example, a relay node made with my Communication Mark can only communicate with me.
If you girls and I are to be able to communicate with each other, we would need to set up seven Communication Relay Nodes.”
Felina said longingly:
“That's already very impressive!
This way, while you're away at school in other provinces, I'll be able to contact you.”
Li Size smiled and pulled her into his arms:
“However, relay nodes aren't that easy to make.
So I plan to have Lilith specialize in the communication Domain; she'll need to master communication Domain knowledge and this Communication Spell to a certain depth before they can be produced.”
Felina wrinkled her nose and gave Li Size a look, huffing:
“Is this an excuse you've found for her?
Humph, are you going to bring back a sister for me for every single Domain from now on?”
“Cough, cough, that's not it. Felina, don't misunderstand...”
Li Size could only play dumb and explain, soothing the somewhat jealous Felina.
However, Felina was just joking with him, and in the blink of an eye, she was talking to him with a smile again.
Li Size continued:
“I plan to call all the girls over and teach them this Communication Spell so that communication will be much easier in the future.
Let's choose Lilith's apartment; it's more convenient there.”
Two days later, the living room of Lilith's apartment in Gele City was filled with the aroma of coffee.
Lilith was dressed in a black professional suit, her blonde hair pulled into a low bun, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, skillfully operating the coffee machine:
“dear, can the new Communication Spell you mentioned really span across provinces?”
Her voice carried the efficiency of a professional woman, yet did not lack tenderness.
Felina sat on the sofa, her golden curls falling over her shoulders, her pale purple eyes looking at Violet:
“Violet, your pointed ears are showing again.”
Violet hurriedly covered them with her long silver hair, her cheeks flushing:
“Sister... I forgot...”
Her pale purple eyes held shyness, and her pointed ears were faintly visible between the strands of hair.
Lina stood by the window, her ivory-white skin glistening in the sunlight, her dark red earlobes trembling slightly:
“Great Master, the winds kiss revolvers over at Wojin have begun mass production, and the brothers of the Miners Brotherhood are very excited.”
Her voice carried a hint of respect, but her gaze was fixed on Li Size, filled with dependence.
Li Size sat in the main seat, looking at everyone with a smile:
“Alright, everyone is here.
Today, I'm going to teach you the modified Communication Spell—”
“The first-stage modified Communication Spell, with a range of 375 kilometers.”
His fingertips traced the rune model in mid-air, and a matrix of intertwined blue and gold runes lit up in the center of the living room:
“Everyone, follow me in constructing the rune model...”
Violet learned the fastest; her Mental Energy patterns lit up with a pale golden light, and she quickly constructed the rune model:
“Wow, it really works! What a magical sorcery!”
Even after modification, the rune structure of this sorcery was not complex.
Felina, Lilith, and Flora also succeeded one after another.
Lina, however, had slightly weaker Mental Energy and only mastered it after several attempts.
Li Size patiently guided her from behind, his fingertips lightly touching her shoulder:
“Relax, let your Mental Energy flow with the runes...”
Halfway through the gathering, Lina suddenly lowered her head, her voice carrying a hint of heaviness:
“Master, there's something I need to tell you... the Miners Brotherhood has run into trouble recently.”
Her fingers tightened around the hem of her skirt:
“After I killed the former leader, we gradually abolished the protection fees, which led other Gangs to mistakenly believe we had fallen into decline. We've been targeted by a medium-sized Gang called the Black Tiger Society—”
“Their leader is a High-tier Wizard Apprentice named Shenlite. He demands our unconditional surrender and merger into the Black Tiger Gang, and he even wants me to be his woman...”
