Chapter 646 Soul Overclocking
When it comes to overclocking, many people probably immediately think of computer overclocking.

Especially the CPU, graphics card, and memory sticks in desktop computers can be overclocked, so that free performance improvements can be obtained on a fixed hardware configuration.

The soul overclocking that Zhou Ming envisioned simulates the overclocking of computer hardware to increase the frequency of his own soul.

How to simulate it?
You must know that the soul is not an entity, but a special existence with energy attributes. It is completely different from a computer. How to overclock?

Zhou Ming has his own way.

Make soul chips.

Because the system found after analysis that the biological souls in this dimension all have a special frequency (that is, the soul frequency).

The size of this frequency is related to many factors.

But mainly depends on two pieces.

One, the density of magic.

The greater the density of magic power, the more energy it provides, the greater the frequency it generates... This is why the frequency of the soul will also increase slowly after the magic power continues to grow.

Two, the quality of the soul.

Or the "quality" of the soul, this thing is so mysterious that it cannot be explained clearly.

But it can be understood as the "compression ratio" of the soul. The more compact the soul is compressed, the higher the frequency will be.

It can also be compared, the soul is equivalent to an invisible CPU, and the magic power is equivalent to the energy of this CPU.

So how to overclock it?
On the one hand, the soul must be continuously compressed.

On the other hand, the supply of magic power must be increased.

Corresponding to the two steps of computer overclocking in reality, Zhou Ming's soul overclocking here is also two steps.

Compress the soul = increase the working frequency.

Increase the magic power supply = increase the working voltage.

The combination of the two steps is equivalent to soul overclocking.

It sounds simple enough.

But the specific implementation is an extremely complicated process, which is more difficult than overclocking a computer by a trillion times.

Even Zhou Ming, who came up with this bold idea, can't manipulate his own soul...just like a person can't lift himself up with his hands.

Fortunately, he has a system.

Proficient in the soul operation system, it can help him solve the problem of soul compression.

In terms of magic power output, Zhou Ming can control himself.

So with the help of the system, it took about a month for the system to simulate the structure of the CPU and compress 40% of his soul into a "soul chip"... In the invisible field of vision, this chip is less than Large nails.

So what is the function of this soul chip?
One, the working frequency is particularly high.

Even its basic operating frequency index has reached the level of 1.55431... This has entered the category of a great magician.

And if you increase the magic power output, it also has about 5% overclocking potential.

In other words, the maximum soul frequency that Zhou Ming can control can reach 1.6320.

And what was his original soul frequency?
Only 1.3002.

After the soul chip was successfully produced, Zhou Ming's soul frequency exceeded 25.5%.

This is quite a scary thing.

Secondly, Zhou Ming's brain became smarter.

Because the soul chip simulates the architecture of a computer CPU, its mathematical computing ability is particularly strong. According to system calculations, the soul chip in Zhou Ming's soul has a maximum floating-point computing power of 5 trillion times... comparable to a A small supercomputer.

Of course, superb mathematical calculation ability does not mean that a person is very smart, it can only prove that this person has strong arithmetic ability, other logical reasoning, observation, innovative thinking and associative ability... These are all part of "smart".

The soul chip is only doing mathematical calculations, strengthening Zhou Ming by tens of thousands of times.

Even so, Zhou Ming is very satisfied. Mathematics can dig out the nature of the laws of all things. Mathematics ability has improved, and other abilities have also improved a lot.

In a certain sense, the "super god brain", the system is realized through a soul chip.

But... After making the soul chip, in addition to the advantages, there are actually certain disadvantages.

There are mainly two disadvantages.

One, after 40% of Zhou Ming's soul constitutes the soul chip, this part of the soul cannot be used normally, and will always be in the "hardware" state, and can only participate in a small part of the work. The other 60% of the soul can only You can participate in various free activities.

This is actually not difficult to understand, because Zhou Ming is not a computer, part of his soul constitutes the chip; the other part can only undertake various ideological activities.

Correspondingly, when the soul chip is not activated, his basic strength will be significantly weakened.

After turning on the soul chip and entering the "overclocking" state, he can surpass himself and kill monsters by leapfrogging.

But this also brings up a second problem.

Energy consumption and "heat dissipation" issues.

After the soul chip is turned on, it consumes a lot of magic power. If the power is too high, problems like poor "heat dissipation" will occur, causing the chip structure to become unstable and even crash directly.

If the soul chip collapses, 40% of Zhou Ming's soul will also completely collapse, and he will suffer heavy damage.

So overclocking is very risky, if you are not careful, 40% of Zhou Ming's soul will be gone.

But Zhou Ming still dared to take risks and made this attempt.

Because in the later stage, as his strength grows, his magic power and soul will continue to increase. At that time, he can choose to upgrade the soul chip, or he can choose to upgrade his basic strength... Just like the distribution of attribute points, it depends on his advantage. Be strengthened, that short board needs to be improved... add points as needed.

In short, for Zhou Ming, as long as the soul frequency is super clever, it can bring him great benefits.

For example, as a senior magician, he actually rubbed out a "little ice pick" with a temperature below minus [-] degrees.

The first-level ice magic [Cone of Ice] is an exclusive magic that only great magicians can release.

Zhou Ming can also be released.

The benefits of soul overclocking are reflected here.

Why do you say that?

Because among the five conventional magics, there is a saying of "law suppression".

That is: wind, fire, earth, water, ice, these five magics, the magic of the previous one can obviously suppress the next one.

For example, the lethality of fire magic is obviously more than that of wind.

The defensive power of earth magic can obviously suppress the fire system, and the earth magic that can condense entities such as [stone bomb] and [stone cone], the attack power is not weak.

But in the face of water-type magic, earth-type and fire-type magic are not enough. Under the impact of [Waterspout], the earth and rocks were disintegrated and the flames were extinguished. The softest water also has a very powerful side, and water Magicians who can moisten all things, relieve drought, and are proficient in water magic are very popular in all countries.

Needless to say, the lethality of certain water-type magic, such as [High-Speed ​​Water Knife], should not be underestimated.

It's just that no matter how powerful the water magic is, it's not enough to see the ice magic.

What does ice do?
One is to bring low temperature, which is unbearable for ordinary people. Many people may lose a few pieces of skin on the surface and disfigure their faces when they are burned. Slow down and move slowly. Ice magic is especially useful against some creatures with high agility.

Secondly, ice-type magic can be said to be completely suppressive to water-type magic. The power of water lies in its fluidity. Once the water is frozen and cannot flow, there is no need to mention the lethality.

In the face of ice magic, water magic belongs to be hanged.

Hey, isn't there fire magic?Can't fire magic be able to restrain ice magic?

Surely someone will ask that.

This is indeed the case. The high-temperature fireball of thousands of degrees acts on the ice cubes of hundreds of degrees below zero. The melting of the ice cubes is certain and has a certain restraint effect, but don't forget that mages who know ice magic usually also master water magic. Magic, ice and water magic are used at the same time, no matter how powerful the fire magic is, it will have to hit the street.

Therefore, the higher the rank of a magician, the stronger the ability to suppress the next-level mage.

It is almost impossible for a low-level mage to challenge a high-level mage in an attempt to "leapfrog and kill monsters".

Only like Zhou Ming, who can overclock his own soul, can there be a slight possibility... This is why he wants to overclock. If he faces a strong enemy in the future, he must have certain countermeasures instead of Suppressed by the opponent.

In addition, in addition to the regular system, there are three rare magic systems: Thunder, Light, and Space.

For these three rare systems, only magicians above the legendary level can get involved in the research.

The requirements for the frequency of the soul are naturally higher.

Especially the space system, let Zhou Ming, who originally wanted to learn space magic, and then tried to build a large number of cheap space rings to make a fortune, learned from the system the requirements for the frequency of the soul to master space magic, he He shook his head again and again: It's too high, it's really too high.

"Even the Holy Spirit doesn't have such a high soul frequency?"

So Zhou Ming's idea of ​​making a space ring by himself is just a distant dream for now.

"Let's improve slowly, let's enter the realm of legendary mage first... Maybe, after I advance to legend, relying on soul overclocking, maybe I can surpass the scope of space magic?"

It's just over 100%, maybe it's over to that level?

In short, Zhou Ming now, apart from his normal meditation every day, is thinking about how to increase the frequency of the soul chip a little bit higher.
