"That light—it's really bright."
In the Association-sealed experimental grounds designated for the "Fat Man" project, Master Dain, wearing protective goggles, let out a somewhat uncultured-sounding remark.
Just as he said, this new "Fat Man" project spell experiment had indeed been quite bright.
Compared to the first time, the overwhelmingly intense illumination was this test's greatest feature.
From the instant the teleportation array opened, the blinding light serving as the control spell shone out from within it. To cover the entire target area and achieve the control effect, it was so bright that even in the observation room several hundred meters beyond the spell's range, no one could look at it directly. They had to put on light-blocking goggles first.
They were goggles rather than sunglasses because these glasses also provided various protective effects, including resisting damage and reducing the effects of visual illusion spells.
Yes, the control spell's development team seemed to have pushed a little too hard. Using the Descent spell as a foundation, they had exceeded expectations in expanding its area of influence. Its actual effective range was thirty to forty percent larger than the ranges of the other spell components.
Apparently, only this could ensure that Devil Race individuals within the target area would be controlled strongly enough.
Jia Xiu believed it.
Because even in the observation room, protected by his goggles, he felt somewhat drawn in by the light, unable to shift his gaze away. Any Devil Race member within the range who looked directly at the spell would likely be affected, unable to immediately cast a spell and flee. That meant the objective had been achieved.
From acquiring the principles of Descent, to understanding and learning it, then improving it by expanding its range, the team had taken only six days. Their efficiency was astonishing.
