Skill Extraction: Exploring Dungeons

After sending away the owner of the training ground

Kane said to Cotton Candy, "Can you change your form?"

"Biji?"

Cotton Candy looked very puzzled upon hearing Kane's words.

"Just transform into the kind that makes thunder, the black one."

After hearing Kane's explanation, Cotton Candy nodded in sudden realization.

Then the white clouds on its body began to slowly turn black, and some lightning started to appear on its surface.

Its once round and friendly cute eyes transformed into a fierce expression.

"Biji!"

Even its voice conveyed a sense of roughness.

"See that dummy over there?" Kane pointed to a dummy 10 meters ahead.

Seeing Cotton Candy nod

"Strike it with lightning"

Upon hearing Kane's words, Cotton Candy floated above the dummy.

"Boom"

A crisp thunder sounded, and a bolt of lightning struck down on the dummy.

The wooden dummy was scorched black, with splits appearing and flames igniting.

Seeing this power, Kane loudly said to Cotton Candy in the sky, "Use the maximum power"

"Boom"

This time the thunder was much louder than before, and a thicker bolt of lightning struck the same dummy.

This time, the dummy was directly shattered into pieces, which continued to burn.

For this kind of power, Kane was very satisfied, and once Cotton Candy floated into the sky, with its hidden nature, this skill could be quite surprising.

However, this skill had a relatively obvious drawback, which was that it could only strike from below Cotton Candy, making it usable only from top to bottom.

It couldn't be used from front to back.

Now understanding Cotton Candy's skills roughly, Kane beckoned to Cotton Candy on the ceiling.

After Cotton Candy came down, he had it shrink back to its original shape.

After paying the compensation to the owner, he took Cotton Candy back to the villa.

On the way back, they indeed encountered quite a few kids who chased Cotton Candy, wanting to hug it. If not stopped by their parents, they might have followed him home.

Finally returning to the villa, Kane sat at the doorway, sighing in relief; these kids were really troublesome.

He placed the breakfast he bought along the way on the dining table and took his portion back to his room.

Longbei and Meizike seemed not to be awake yet, as for Cotton Candy, Kane let it play in the backyard with Youyou.

He came to the desk in the room and placed breakfast nearby, picking up the book he read yesterday and continued reading.

The day after tomorrow was the opening day of the Mist Gate, and once Meizike obtained his core skills, they would head to the next dungeon.

Before that, Kane wanted to grasp the basic mechanical constructions to modify his launcher or create other things he desired.

This way, he could free up an enhancement slot for better skills.

Kane roughly gauged the basic points of this mechanical construction technology.

The Mechanical Association now venerates the technology powered by Magic Cores.

Using a simple magic array as the controlling core, it connects the control of various mechanical parts.

Magic cores supply energy, and the user links to this array to control mechanical devices.

Or add some programs to the magic array, granting the machinery certain intelligence for autonomous action.

The perfect solution is, in certain silver or higher dungeons, mechanical cores might emerge, provided the dungeon contains mechanical elements.

This kind of mechanical core starts with rather advanced intelligence, bestowing more flexible judgment and motion to the machinery, sometimes granting special abilities.

Kane's obscure technology was analyzed from a copper dungeon.

This resulted in only the most basic technology and some schematics not powerful enough.

But Kane felt that these basic techniques were just what he wanted, the kind of technology he urgently needed.

The biggest difference between this old technology and the association's current technology lies in.

Instead of being controlled by magic arrays, it's controlled using magic circuits as the central hub, connecting one node after another needing control.

According to the author's speculation, the advanced technology should be constructing a core with magic circuits to achieve autonomous action.

This technology wasn't popular because materials to build magic circuits were unique to that dungeon.

Only such materials could, after being molded by the user, instantly receive the user's magic power over great distances and react accordingly.

This allows precision operation without requiring Magic Cores and control systems, greatly reducing magic consumption.

Kane's skills could infuse his created mechanical structures with his magic anywhere.

This resulted in less magic consumption and greater precision in operation.

Just this was enough, while external structures, mechanical connections, and shooting could simply replicate the current technology.

All he needed to do was transform the control magic array and the magic core transmission channel into the desired magic circuits.

Thus, reading while understanding, time flew swiftly around Kane.

Midway, Longbei opened the door and saw Kane serious, didn't disturb him, but instead quietly closed the door.

This frenzied pursuit of interesting and desired knowledge deeply fascinated Kane.

He began constructing ideas in his mind, his magic power unintentionally gushing out, starting to build following his thoughts.

As Kane's ideas deeply developed, magic power frenziedly surged out, and the mechanical body already built in his hands began repeated deleting and adding, expanding or shrinking.

Under such frenzied magic consumption, Kane quickly clarified his thoughts, and the haphazardly assembled mechanical creation dissipated.

Then he reconstructed it, this time orderly, gradually progressing, with the interior and the shell simultaneously expanding forward.

Kane's mind was now very clear, designing the internal magic circuits while constructing.

Finally, he completed the mechanical body.

This was a round object, circular, with the lower part designed by Kane as a floating device.

The round sides had two minute protrusions, controlling directional devices.

The back had an exhaust port for rapid reaching Kane's desired position.
