Benjamin spent a little more time crafting an Auxiliary Control Crystal.
Beside the experiment table, Benjamin lightly flicked the Auxiliary Control Crystal.
The crystal was pitch-black throughout, yet within it, an extremely thin thread of spiritual light drifted slowly.
The other end of that thread was connected to the "system" Medium, tens of thousands of miles away.
A light screen hovered before Benjamin, clearly displaying Jack's every move.
With this thing helping him monitor the situation, Benjamin began reviewing this test from the beginning.
The problem with this Medium was actually obvious: its capacity was simply too low.
More precisely, the amount of spiritual power it could allow him to send across space was too little.
After all, when Benjamin had designed this Medium, he had never intended to turn it into any true auxiliary intelligence.
It was merely an inducer and filter, a simple interface through which he could project his influence into another world.
Moreover, according to Augusta's reminder, a Medium's structure had to be sufficiently sturdy, while its functions had to be kept as simple as possible.
Thus, under Benjamin's design, the entire Medium retained only two most important functions: absorbing the emotions produced by its host
as energy, and transmitting spiritual power across space.
Even those two spell formations normally remained in deep dormancy.
Only when the host produced sufficiently intense negative mental fluctuations would they truly awaken.
Benjamin had not done this out of stinginess, but for safety.
After all, the place where he had deployed the Medium was not some wilderness entirely devoid of high-level lifeforms.
The stronger the Medium appeared, the more easily it would be exposed.
As for activation energy, Benjamin had chosen "negative emotions."
These emotions would be automatically collected by the Medium, then converted through a special method into activation
