"There are two types of investigative witchcraft, one is the blessing type, the other is the detection type..."

The blessing type does not require special research. After all, there is no increase in repeated blessings. Just buy a few more corresponding Wizard Artifact.

The focus is on detection-type reconnaissance magic.

"The detection method of most conventional detection-type reconnaissance witchcraft is similar to radar. It returns a result once used. Although the consumption is very small, it does create detection gaps."

Although there are also witchcraft that can continuously release feedback results, compared with the same level, the effective range of this type of witchcraft and the detection-type reconnaissance witchcraft that releases feedback results once is much smaller.

"For me, this problem can be solved, but another more important problem cannot be solved."

In addition to the problem of mental energy consumption, the most important thing about detecting witchcraft is the wizard's information processing ability.

His Rune Artifact is made based on Immortal Cultivation System's high-intensity absorption of external energy. It only needs to be activated by itself and consumes very little.

If the detection ability is solidified in Rune Artifact, the detection witchcraft can be released continuously without worrying about consumption.

But even if Rune Artifact is really produced using this method, the effect of using Benjamin is not much different from that of an ordinary wizard releasing witchcraft, because his information processing ability cannot keep up.

Too much information can affect thinking or even block it.

If Rune Artifact is used to release reconnaissance magic too frequently, Benjamin will be able to destroy itself without the enemy taking action.

This is the reason why most detection-type detection witchcraft is designed to work once, rather than continuously.

With the research capabilities of wizards, it is quite easy to develop a detection-type detection witchcraft that has the same range as a one-time detection-type detection witchcraft of the same level and can be used continuously, but it is meaningless.

The information processing capabilities of wizards are limited. Although the computing power of wizards will increase rapidly as the level increases, the effective range of detection witchcraft of different levels also increases exponentially, and the amount of feedback information increases even more horribly.

If you want to turn detection-type reconnaissance witchcraft into a continuous release effect, you must reduce the scope of detection to reduce the amount of real-time feedback information.

People in previous lives had computer assistance when using radar detection, but most wizards in this world can only rely on their own brains and souls to process information.

"... Huh? In this case, what if we make an auxiliary device similar to a computer to help process information?"

Benjamin had a flash of inspiration, opened Magic Network and started searching on it.

And the search results... how to say?

Rather subtle.

Wizard Civilization does have similar things, and the level is very high.

Whether it is an artificial soul, Rune Artificial Intelligence, or a living being that combines the advantages of both, they all have the ability to assist in calculations.

The disadvantage is... these things are too high-end!

There are two main problems.

One is the difficulty of production.

Needless to say about the artificial soul, this thing is Alchemy's top technology. If you are below level 6, you want to get into this thing.

The difficulty of Huoling and Rune Artificial Intelligence is a little lower, but only "a little".

The production difficulty of Rune Artificial Intelligence is not much different from that of previous intelligent AIs, and may even be higher.

From algorithmic logic, to response mechanism, to rune program compilation, each one is enough for people to go from getting started to being buried.

As we all know, if something is possible, it will be, and if it is not, it will not be.

The practice of wizards only improves the "hardware" level such as computing power and thinking speed, and the "software" such as thinking logic will not be affected at all.

Just like how powerful the computing power of supercomputers is, only humans can solve mathematical problems.

As for the "living" technology, to put it nicely, this technology combines the advantages of Rune Artificial Intelligence and artificial souls.

But the problem is that the difficulty of making this thing also combines the difficulties of both.

"With my current strength, it is almost impossible to use my bare hands to assist..."

Even if you buy the complete set of production methods directly, the time it takes to understand them thoroughly and completely produce them is unimaginable.

If you have that time, Benjamin might as well directly improve your hard power.

Only when his strength reaches a certain bottleneck and requires a long enough time to settle, can he go back and study these things.

"Is there a trade-off between increasing strength and increasing knowledge? A world with extraordinary power is prone to such troubles..."

Another issue is adaptability.

The same problem as Space Ring, most of these man-made products can only be used in one or a few specific planes. Once they reach a new plane, they are likely to become invalid due to differences in rules or certain constants.

The solution is the same as Space Ring, "just" find a level six wizard to help fix the rules.

"In circles, the problem comes back again."

Benjamin scratched his head, thought for a while, and his consciousness sank deep into his soul to see if his golden finger had any solution.

After a while, Benjamin frowned and opened his eyes:

"This matter is more troublesome than I thought..."

Great Dao Library also gave many solutions, similar to driving souls or creating array spirits.

But the problem is similar to Wizard World - the strength is too low to do it.

For example, in the simplest way of driving the soul, if you want the soul to assist in the calculation, it cannot be as rough as refining Myriad Souls Banner, but the soul must be preserved as completely as possible.

For monks whose level is too low, just keeping the soul intact is a problem.

"There is a solution, but with my current strength I can't implement it. It seems... I need to raise my level."

Although the idea of enhancing the detection type of reconnaissance witchcraft is not currently available, we can first make the reconnaissance Rune Artifact.

In the next period of time, Benjamin used Magic Network to purchase knowledge about runes, Alchemy, materials science, plane science, perception witchcraft, etc., and absorbed them eagerly.

However, even the research on the purely investigative Rune Artifact was not smooth sailing.

Detection runes are much more sophisticated than attack or movement runes.

How to make a Rune Artifact "see" things instead of simply releasing energy?

How can the information it "sees" be passed back?

How to prevent it from emitting energy fluctuations that are easily detected by the enemy when it is working?

Benjamin tried to design various rune combinations, but he soon discovered that the core mechanism of many detection runes in Wizard System was still based on the extension of the caster's mental power.

If this mechanism is directly solidified in the external Wizard Artifact, the effect is often greatly reduced, or the consumption is still huge.

Therefore, the effects of many detection Wizard Artifact are only similar to enhanced vision, Life Vision's blessing type detection witchcraft, or another way to cast light and shadow on the target area, rather than directly releasing detection witchcraft.
