After the first trial succeeded, the second trial arrived. .
Could the magic vortex operate normally?
This trial seemed very similar to the first, but it was not.
The first trial tested whether the magic vortex prototype could function—in other words, whether it could move at all. The second tested whether it could operate normally, elevating things from the first trial's foundation to the level of "application."
And determining whether the magic vortex prototype could operate normally required looking at only two things:
The mental power model.
First, whether the magic vortex prototype matched the mental power model above it.
Second, whether the existing energy within the magic vortex prototype could form a closed cycle through the channels leading into the mental power model.
If both points could be achieved, then the second trial would also be considered a success.
Angel cautiously attempted to control the magic vortex prototype. When he drew out a thread of energy from the magic vortex, his heart nearly rose into his throat.
He feared that the slightest abnormality would cause a massive leakage of energy.
When that thread of energy slowly entered the mental power model, Angel relaxed slightly. Being able to enter the mental power model meant that it matched the mental power model.
Next, it depended on whether that refined energy could form a closed cycle within the mental power model.
As he waited for the circulation to finish, Angel remained intensely focused, devoting his entire mind to the magic vortex prototype.
According to what he knew, when most apprentices reached this step, their thought spaces would more or less leak some energy. Yet even now, not a trace of energy had leaked from his.
This was extremely rare. When the magic source had shattered into an energy mass, Angel had received
