Chapter 99 Energy Clone
The Lun Magic, which is not limited by its roots, is a magic system that Skaha is studying and perfecting. This can be renamed Lun Magic.
Ethan is indeed interested in this kind of thing that can enrich his knowledge base and expand his magic knowledge.
What is the use of Shadow Country... to him?
"Although Shadow Country now has nothing but a barren land, it has not really become nothingness. There is still something that you are sure to be interested in in that place."
"What?"
Skaha didn't keep it in a silence. Seeing that Ethan was indeed interested, he immediately gave the answer.
"Energy!" Skaha curled the corner of his mouth: "A lot, lot, lot of energy."
"oh?"
Ethan does need a lot of energy. He has already prepared to connect arcane, holy light and other planes, and will wait for the extraction in a while.
Unexpectedly, Skaha was willing to pay Shadow Country as a reward but didn't know how much to give to himself? If he drew too much energy, would there be any bad changes in Shadow Country?
"Are you not afraid of the impact of Shadow Country?"
"The Shadow Country shouldn't exist anymore, so what if it's destroyed?"
Skaha is named Queen of Shadowlands and Guardian of the Demon Realm. In fact, she has never taken this identity seriously.
The so-called Kingdom of the Dead is only targeting Celtic myths, and Celtic myths...
"If you say that, I have no scruples."
Since Skaha is willing to treat the entire Shadow Country as a reward, what else is there to be pretentious about Ethan? He even gave Skaha a small meal in the next few days and helped her to tutor her basics so that she could improve Lun's magic faster.
Time just passed day by day, and there were a lot of things to do every day, and Diana was always by her side, which made Ethan feel that life was very fulfilling and not boring at all.
The only regret is that whenever he wants to do something, Diana will refuse every time. What makes him even more depressed is that the reason for rejection is the same every time.
"Let's think about this when you grow up!"
“…”
The depressed Ethan wanted to get back the game during the combat training, but in the end, Diana would only be educated by Ada. As for Ada, she would never agree to practice with Ethan. This woman is too smart and knows what this guy is doing.
After a peaceful and stable life like this, Ethan had roughly figured out his physical condition and also understood the "upper limit" of his magic.
In general, he is indeed weaker than his previous peak state. Strictly speaking, he has no magic power now. The magic power condensed or absorbed by any means will be absorbed by the black spot in his spiritual universe, and will not be left to him at all.
Ethan now uses magic to release divine power in his body. Some simple little magic is not affected at all, but it is a bit difficult to consume more magic, which means that the "reserves" of divine power are not as deep as his original magic reserves.
However, because of the higher quality and the special nature of divine power, his speed and consumption of magic will be lower.
In general, his strength has declined, but the impact is not great, and he can restore his original strength level when he is older.
“The question is…when will you grow up?”
He now knows why Merlin had that expression at the beginning, because his divine body obviously would not grow as fast as an ordinary person, and the growth of this body requires huge energy.
He also found that this large amount of consumption is not just a brainless pile of energy.
Just like Ethan had a very deep understanding and mastery of arcane energy, the deep magic he had accumulated before had arcane characteristics. After these huge magic powers became nutrients for this body, the body itself also developed a certain degree of "resistance" to the arcane energy, which made him want to use arcane energy to quickly create a body. It was not that arcane energy had completely lost its effect, but this effect would gradually decrease. Although it could still be absorbed by him as nutrients, its growth effect was not as good as new energy.
"It seems that I'm going to receive the energy of Shadow Country."
After all, it actually requires 'fresh and huge energy', which is quite consistent with Ethan's original cultivation route. Just keep on with what he did before.
Sitting on the clean and warm beach, Ethan looked at Diana not far ahead and suddenly wanted to put a phantom to tease her.
When releasing the Phantom Cluster, Ethan suddenly felt a strange feeling that he seemed to be able to make some modifications to the Phantom Cluster.
He didn't think much about it, and did it directly as he felt it, and then something magical happened.
Ethan created a clone that was very close to the entity. This clone was completely condensed by energy, and it was no different from another self.
What's even more magical is not this. Ethan feels that he can control this clone at will, just like the feeling of part of his body. What the clone sees and touches will also be fed back immediately. And even if there is an extra clone, Ethan does not feel like "schizophrenia".
Two completely different perspectives appeared in his consciousness without any conflict. His strong mental power ensured that he would not feel uncomfortable or unable to cope with it even if he performed double-opening operations.
"That energy clone of Ego?"
It seems very similar, but Igo's main body is usually in rest. He doesn't know what Igo feels when he operates his clone. Anyway, he thinks this kind of clone is pretty good.
Taking advantage of the feeling that he still remembered, Ethan divided two clones. Three identical Ethan stood in front of his body. Then Ethan could clearly distinguish which clone he and the visual images of the three clones belong to. He could easily control the three clones to do everything that the main body could do, and completely different actions.
“It’s quite interesting.”
Seeing that Diana had turned around and looked over, Ethan immediately asked the three clones to rush over to siege Diana. In addition to scaring Diana, he could also take the opportunity to test the combat power of this clone.
The result came out soon... The combat power of these clones is very average. Although Ethan's mental power is strong enough and his reaction speed ensures that he can "operate" the three clones at the same time, the clones themselves are not strong. If they want the clones to have stronger power, they need to use more energy. Using magic is to mobilize energy from Ethan's body. This energy transmission will cause a momentary sluggishness and weaken the strength in a change of direction.
Therefore, although the three clones were not Phantoms, they were all physical and had combat power to catch Diana off guard, they were quickly knocked to the ground by Diana who came to her senses.
"Hiss~ You're really heavy."
"No, it's almost the same force as the one used during practice these days."
Seeing the three clones lying on the ground motionless, Ethan himself sat there and kept rubbing some parts of his body where the clones were hit.
Diana walked over and checked Ethan's situation in a funny way.
There were no scars on her body, but she had a good memory. The positions where Ethan felt particularly painful happened to be the same positions of different clones she hit just now.
After telling Ethan what he discovered, Ethan immediately understood what was going on. For the clones, they were just a little bit hit, but for the ontology that endured all perceptions, it was equivalent to being attacked continuously at the same position, which of course it would be more painful!
A golden exclamation mark suddenly appeared above Ethan's head (a golden exclamation mark really appeared, condensed by divine power), and he suddenly had a bold idea.
Although there was no one around, Ethan still covered his mouth and put his mouth close to Diana's ears, and told Diana about his thoughts in a very small voice.
Then he was beaten up, which made him unable to maintain those clones, and turned into pure energy and returned to his body before stopping.
The days that followed were calm and no different from before. After Ethan confirmed that there would be no change in the short term, he immediately called Skaha to go back to find Ilia, and went to Shadowland to collect the rewards promised by Skaha.
"Do you want to go and have a look?"
Diana still hasn't returned to her own world. It seems that she promised to spend more time with Ethan for a while, but she is very unhappy with a god who is spying on her boyfriend.
She knew that with her current strength, she could not teach the Lord God any lessons, but being able to observe the "opponent" at a close distance would give her a clearer direction of effort and work harder to improve her strength.
"Then let's go!"
Diana and Skaha stood next to Ethan. They did not go to the teleportation room, but directly teleported from the island. This kind of shuttle was just a matter of a moment for the people here, so there was no need to worry that someone suddenly had something to look for him.
To be on the safe side, he greeted Logan and Banner and told them where they were going. If something special happened, at least someone would know what his captain was doing, instead of suddenly disappearing, or leaving the crew and running away.
With a casual wave, the teleportation spell that had almost become instinctive was released without warning. Compared to the magic array that first appeared, then brewed for a moment, then disappeared after the light was shining loudly, Ethan's current movement was much smaller when he was teleporting on the plane.
