Chapter 74 Improvement [Gentle Breeze Cleanses Dust]
Chapter 74 Improvement [Gentle Breeze Cleanses Dust]
The moment Rolin stepped into the Forest of Sinking Bones, he felt the negative energy around him surge in like a cold tide. Even with the protection of the potion, the bone-chilling cold and the oppressive feeling on the soul level could not be dispelled.
Mental power was severely restricted, as if wearing heavy shackles, limiting the detection range to a very short distance around the body, almost eliminating its warning function.
He carefully navigated the labyrinth of skeletons and twisted deadwood, relying on his naked eyes and the limited vision transmitted by Bach through a mental connection high in the sky.
The faint sound of bones cracking underfoot was particularly jarring in the deathly silence.
He had traveled less than a hundred meters when he encountered trouble. It wasn't an attack from the undead, but rather the environment itself.
The gray haze that filled the air not only obstructed vision, but also had a sticky quality, as if an invisible spider web was wrapped around the body, making every movement require more effort than usual.
Breathing became somewhat difficult; the stench and negative energy mixed with the smell brought waves of nausea and dizziness when inhaled into the lungs.
This can't go on.
Rowling stopped and hid behind an obstacle made of huge skulls.
The continuous strain and mobility limitations caused by the environment will greatly affect his search efficiency and ability to cope with danger.
He needs a means to continuously purify his surroundings and dispel these negative influences.
The Lesser Undead Exorcism Potion primarily targets negative energy corruption, but has limited effectiveness against physical smoke and stench, and its effects are not sustained.
The Holy Light Charm is powerful but is a one-time consumable. It can be used to clear paths, but it is not practical to maintain it in the long term.
He needs a sustainable, low-consumption purification facility.
The spells he knew flashed through Rolin's mind.
The spell 【Gentle Breeze Cleanses the Dust】, which had advanced from level zero to level one, appeared before my eyes.
The original purpose of this spell was to generate a weak airflow to disperse dust and clean the surface of objects, but its effect was very limited.
However, its core principle of creating controllable airflow may be modified.
His researcher's instincts allowed him to temporarily suppress his aversion to the environment and his potential sense of crisis, and he fell into deep thought.
How can this simple cleaning spell be transformed into a practical skill that can continuously dispel harmful smoke and purify the breathing environment?
He recalled the spell model structure of [Gentle Breeze Cleanses Dust].
It's very simple: a few basic rune nodes form a miniature wind elemental guide loop, generating a directional, weak airflow.
"The wind force needs to be strengthened, and the range needs to be expanded from a line to a surface, or even a volume."
"The airflow pattern also needs to be changed. It can't be a simple blowing; it's best to form a protective layer of micro-airflow that surrounds itself and continuously repels outward."
Luo Lin deduced the scenario in his mind.
This involves modifying and optimizing the basic spell model, requiring the addition of new rune nodes and changes to the energy flow path.
This is no easy task, especially in such a dangerous environment where it is difficult to maintain a high level of concentration.
But he had no choice.
Without addressing the environmental issues, subsequent searches will be extremely difficult.
He signaled Baha to be on high alert, then sat cross-legged behind the skull obstacle, closed his eyes, and focused his mental energy into his mental sea to begin constructing a modified version of the [Gentle Breeze Cleanses Dust] model.
He first tried to improve the channeling efficiency of the wind element, replacing two more efficient but structurally less stable basic wind runes.
Just as the virtual model was completed, a violent energy oscillation occurred at the node connection point, nearly causing it to collapse.
"No, the structure is not strong enough to withstand stronger winds."
Luo Lin immediately dismantled the model and adjusted his approach.
He abandoned the idea of simply increasing wind power and instead considered changes in airflow patterns.
Based on the original model, we tried adding a few auxiliary runes for deflection and circulation, attempting to transform the unidirectional airflow into a circulating flow.
This time, the model was much more stable, but the airflow it generated was still weak and limited to a thin layer on the body surface, unable to effectively dissipate the surrounding smoke.
"The range is too small, the repulsive force is insufficient..."
Luo Lin frowned slightly.
He needs a wider scope of application and a stronger repulsion effect.
This is reminiscent of the energy cycle structure of a "fluid barrier".
Could we learn from that kind of dynamic, internally circulating energy field?
A bold idea took shape in his mind.
Instead of adhering to the traditional wind element guidance, we attempt to construct a miniature, continuously operating energy circulation field.
This field itself does not generate strong winds, but rather uses a slight repulsive force at the energy level to "push" away the surrounding smoke particles and negative energy dust, forming a relatively clean "safe zone".
This goes beyond the scope of "Gentle Breeze Cleanses Dust" and is more like a brand new prototype of a spell that combines the concepts of force field and purification.
The construction process has become more complex and difficult.
It is necessary to design a self-sustaining micro-energy cycle loop and endow it with the property of repelling specific external substances.
This involves more advanced knowledge of energy particle configuration and field applications.
With complete concentration, in his mind's eye, the rays of light representing different rune structures and energy paths constantly combined, disassembled, and adjusted.
Failure after failure, the virtual model kept crashing.
His mental energy was being depleted rapidly, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
But he did not give up.
His resilience and dedication to problem-solving sustained him. Each failure deepened his understanding of the construction of energy fields.
Time passed little by little.
Baha circled anxiously in the air, sensing that undead were approaching, but dared not disturb Rolin.
Finally, after countless attempts, a relatively stable micro-energy field model, driven by a miniature star force node at its core and composed of several deflection and repulsion runes on its periphery, was successfully constructed and maintained in Rolin's mental sea!
This model no longer directly invokes the wind element, but instead uses the inclusiveness and stability of stellar power as a foundation, forming a pure field that continuously radiates a weak repulsive force outward through specific repulsive runes.
Luo Lin opened his eyes, a hint of fatigue flashing in them, but more so a gleam of success.
He immediately began to implement this improved spell in practice.
He channeled his magic and carefully outlined the shape of the new model around his body.
Due to its complex structure, the construction speed is much slower than the original "Gentle Breeze Cleansing Dust," but for him now, it is still within an acceptable range.
Once the last rune node stabilizes, the spell is successfully activated!
In an instant, a faint force field, about half a meter in radius and barely perceptible to the naked eye, quietly formed around Rolin.
At the edge of the force field, the grayish-white smoke seemed to encounter an invisible barrier, being slowly and continuously pushed away, unable to get closer.
Breathing became much easier immediately, and the nauseating stench was shut out.
While the feeling of negative energy cannot be completely eliminated, the physical disturbances caused by the environment are greatly reduced.
It worked!
【Glimmer Purification Field】, Rolin named this improved spell in his mind.
He carefully sensed the depletion of the force field.
The mana cost is several times greater than the original [Gentle Breeze Cleanses Dust], but it is completely acceptable compared to the convenience it brings.
With his current magical reserves, maintaining this force field for several hours is not a problem.
He stood up and stretched. His movements were no longer hindered by the sticky smoke, and his vision was much clearer.
This improved spell greatly enhanced his mobility and survivability in the Deathwhisper Swamp.
"Indeed, knowledge is power."
Luo Lin silently recited in his heart.
Even in perilous situations, the satisfaction derived from solving problems through wisdom and research findings is irreplaceable.
He glanced at the warning Bahamut sent through the mental link; several low-level skeletons were being drawn by the energy fluctuations and were approaching.
Maintaining the [Micro-Light Purification Field], Roland felt a lightness all over his body, and his movements regained their usual agility.
He ignored the few low-level skeletons that had been attracted to him, and with a few flashes, he used the twisted dead wood and piles of bones to conceal himself and easily escape their pursuit.
The effects of the improved spells were immediate.
Not only did it make movement easier, but more importantly, the clear vision and undisturbed breathing allowed him to focus more intently on observing his surroundings and searching for anything unusual.
