Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1601 SMS headshot
Other mage tower organizations, including the communication artifacts produced before the Tower of Time, have only one core function, and that is the spell [Magic Network Background Communication].

Xia Duo himself often uses this kind of communication magic weapon, but he has experience in using mobile phones, let alone how awkward it is when using this kind of crude communication magic weapon.

When the Arcane Federation announced this patented spell, it obviously included a [communication management spell] provided by Gilles High Tower, but until now there has been no communication magic weapon integrated with communication management functions on the market.

The main reason why the Tower of Time didn't do it was to pursue higher shipments. If the design of the communication magic weapon was too complicated, it would not only lengthen the construction period, but also embarrass the Ministry of Magic and Technology, which had just started at that time.

As for other mage tower organizations, they don't even have the awareness of mass production at the moment. Maybe occasionally there will be mages who make a few with communication management functions, but at most they are for their own use. Selling a large number of them may still be a bit embarrassing for them.

Now Xia Duo wants to launch a high-end communication instrument for making money. In addition to adding new functions other than communication, in terms of communication, he also plans to add communication management functions.

That is to say, no one has realized that the communication magic weapon can also be used as a harassment tool. Otherwise, the communication management spell will definitely become a must-have spell for everyone in Netheril.

The reason is that [Magic Network Background Communication] has a very wide range of communication spells, and it is usually not blocked by ordinary evasion detection spells.

As long as someone uses this spell to send a message, even if the target temporarily shields all information from the outside world, when he lifts the shield or the shield fails, all the messages sent through the background communication of the magic net will flood in at once. , maybe people will be down directly.

In this case, having a shielding spell would be a disadvantage instead.

Only spells like [Communication Management Spells] that can automatically receive and process "incoming letters" are the best solution.

Of course, from another perspective.

At present, the Tower of Time has produced more than 6000 pieces of communication artifacts. After all, this is what the main attack is. It is estimated that other Mage Tower organizations will have to add up to compare with the Tower of Time.

But in the future, with the further popularization of communication magic tools and even communication spells, maybe someone will really come up with a show operation of text message bombing.

At that time, it would be too late to add communication management functions to the communication magic weapon.

In fact, the possibility of this kind of SMS bombing is now available, that is, one less person to pierce the window paper.

After all, the communication magic weapon is just a dead thing, and with a little modification, it can be made into an unconventional magic weapon similar to the Azurite Plane Arcane Crystal Extractor, which casts spells continuously in seconds.

Even if the service life is extremely short after transformation, a few more sets can form a powerful "kill you" cluster.

When I thought of a certain archmage just coming out of the mage tower, he was in a daze and forgot to take protective measures, and was suddenly "exploded" by the spam attack of the enemy hiding in the far corner.

Don't be too sad about that scene!

Ordinary communication spells will naturally decay as long as they are not received, and it is okay to hide for a while, but the background communication of the magic net, as long as they do not receive it, will always exist in the background fluctuations of the magic net, and as long as they "show up", all Information will flood in, to some extent, it has been called blocking.

He even envisioned such a scenario——

When both parties signed a certain contract, they agreed that spam text messages would be the penalty for breach of the contract. After returning home, both parties desperately sent spam text messages to the contract. As long as the other party violated the contract, the punishment would come immediately.

This situation may be worse than being blacklisted by the Lord of Radiance. After all, the Lord of Radiance will not kill people directly, but this kind of punishment for breach of contract is likely to result in death.

Of course, the prerequisite for this to happen is that there are no spells like [communication management spells] that can automatically receive and process magic net background communications.

"Blessed are high-end users, from now on you don't have to worry about being shot in the head by spam messages!" Xia Duo muttered to himself.

If it weren't for the endless variety of detection spells in this world, he would even have wanted to pierce the window paper of "SMS headshot" himself.

With such a big news stimulus, it will definitely greatly increase the sales of the upgraded version of the communication magic weapon.

Of course, it is also possible for all spellcasters to develop the habit of maintaining the presence of communication management spells at all times.

……

The design of the communication function of the communication instrument has an upgrade route that has been prepared a long time ago, and Xia Duo quickly completed it.

Compared with the previous schemes, he only optimized the spell structure this time. In addition, he replaced the previous complicated encryption method with a mainstream conventional encryption method.

There is nothing special about the communication magic weapon in the purely technical field, and the advantage of the Tower of Time over other mage tower organizations is not in the technical aspect.

But in the way of organization.

As long as other Mage Tower organizations can't think of division of labor and cooperation, and can't think of standard mass production, they will never catch up with the efficiency and profit margin of the Tower of Time.

Even if they think of everything, this accumulation of soft power cannot be caught up in a while, and the Tower of Time will not stand still waiting for them to chase.

On the contrary, the Tower of Time, which has almost no internal constraints, will advance far faster than they imagined.

For the time being, Xia Duo has not been able to, nor will he, like Congeinio, produce completely unencrypted magic items. It would be nice to replace it with a conventional encryption method and take care of the best spellcasters, so as to facilitate the introduction of talents in the future.

As for those who can't even solve the conventional encryption method, just treat them as pure customers. Conventional encryption can save costs and cut more price differences.

……

While completing the design of the communication function of the communication instrument, Xia Duo's idea of ​​another main function of the communication instrument became more and more clear until it fully emerged.

For a Nether mage, what makes him fondle admiringly, besides the magic book containing unknown knowledge, is the magic item that can bring him powerful power.

The combination of the two is actually the concept of the magic item spell book.

Of course, it is impossible for Xia Duo to make a spell book product with communication function, which is really unrealistic. Even if it is made, not many people can afford it.

It's better to take this piece out separately and make a high-quality goods, and use it to cut leeks for richer people.

What Xia Duo wanted was to make an auxiliary spellcasting function that could take effect within a specific range, which was also similar to a simplified spell book, at least for most mid-level mages to work hard enough to afford it.

As for the low-level mages, it is enough to use the normal version of the communication magic weapon first, and it is not too late to buy the upgraded version when the salary is raised later.
