Chapter 428 Exploration of Magic Power

"...Achievements?" Tilly took the order doubtfully and glanced at it, "She has made great progress."

"Indeed," Roland nodded, "Lucia White comes from a merchant family in Golden Spike City. She has a certain foundation in writing and arithmetic. In addition, she has a good acceptance of natural theory classes, which is why she has achieved such results. "

"I don't doubt what you said, "A deeper understanding and knowledge of the world can promote the evolution of abilities," Tilly curled her lips, "But what does this have to do with magic backlash? "

"According to observations of Lily, Ye Zi, Mysterious Moon and others, when abilities evolve, they will also have the effect of increasing the upper limit of the body's magic capacity. I think this effect is also closely related to the understanding of the world," Roland joined Agatha. He explained the difference between the "ancient high-level awakening" and the "ability evolution" of the small town witch in detail, "They are essentially the same thing, but the one-sided or isolated epiphany effect has a far greater degree of magic improvement." It is not as good as a comprehensive and holistic understanding of the world - Mysterious Moon is an excellent example. Although she is a member of the Witch Union, she has completed evolution through epiphany, and her magic level is far inferior to Anna and Soraya."

Tilly thought for a while and quickly understood what Roland meant, "You are saying that Miss Lucia has always been at a low level of magic power, and her body has adapted to this level of magic power, whether it is normal or on the day of awakening. And this When he reached adulthood, evolution happened to be triggered at the same time, which caused the magic power in the body to increase several times, making it far beyond what the body could tolerate?"

"Absolutely, but I tend to think that the two are not the same," Roland said with his fingers. "For magic power, the key improvement points are awakening day, adult day and evolution. It seems that the effect is the same, but I think the former two are forced to grow, while the latter is actively promoted.”

"Why do you say that?"

"Because ability evolution will not cause magic backlash symptoms," the prince said slowly, "If there is no difference between the two, the sharp increase in magic power during Anna's evolution will only kill her. I assume that there is a warning line in the witch's body regarding the magic power capacity. , exceeding this limit, the body will feel the pain of backlash. Daily training can gradually increase its upper limit, and this is also the purpose of emptying the magic power before awakening."

"Warning line? Interesting statement..." Tilly thought thoughtfully, "Do you think that Miss Lucia's magic power increased too much when she evolved, resulting in insufficient space for the magic power to be forced into the body on the day of awakening, and finally exceeded it? Boundaries, caused this accident?"

"Yes, although Anna, like Lucia, also evolved for the first time when she became an adult, her previous magic power itself was amazing, and her warning level against backlash was much higher than that of ordinary witches." Roland paused. "In addition, this can also explain why Lucia returned to normal after Speer pulled away the manic magic power - those magic powers did not belong to her."

"Your point of view... can explain a lot of problems," she put the fever behind her ears and thought with her chin, "Why does the magic power come from the same source but show different forms in the witch's body? Why does the magic power that is free from the outside world only exist in the body of the witch? The witch can only see them when she awakens - because they only become a part of themselves when they are accepted by the witch.”

Roland smiled and said, "Awakening can be seen as attracting magic power, but in the end only a small part will be left. Evolution is to expand and enhance this small part of oneself. The wider the level of cognition, the better the strengthening effect." . As for the unlimited number of evolutions, it is reasonable - how can there be an end to exploring the world?"

"I suddenly became curious."

"What?"

"If you were a witch, how vast would your magic power be after you evolve?" Tilly covered her mouth and smiled.

Roland almost choked on his saliva. Although he wanted to experience the wonders of extraordinary abilities in person, he still had to pay such a high price.

"Can I take a copy of these teaching materials you compiled back to Sleeping Island?" She raised her eyebrows.

Although the other party's tone sounded very casual, Roland noticed that her right hand gently held the hem of her skirt.

"Of course there is no problem." He would definitely not make the wrong choice for the most basic points-pull question like this, and generally speaking, the more decisive the answer, the better. "If it can help the witches of Sleeping Island evolve, it will also be good for Border Town. News. Not to mention, you are still my sister."

Then he felt his left shoulder being pinched hard by Nightingale.

"..." Tilly did not respond to the second half of the sentence, but nodded slightly and said, "Thank you, I'll take my leave now."

"Um."

It seemed that she was still acting too exaggeratedly. She might not be interested in such tactful words before getting a credible explanation.

But to Roland's surprise, Tilly stopped when she reached the door, turned around and said softly, "Sometimes, I wish you were not my brother."

…

After Tilly left, Roland still sat at his desk in a daze, his mind filled with her last words.

I don’t want you to be my brother, what does that mean?

"Hey, are you stupid?" Nightingale appeared and waved her fingers in front of him.

"What do you think she meant by what she said just now?"

"I don't know," Nightingale shrugged, "Maybe I think you are more suitable as an ally than as a relative, right?"

Naturally, Roland would not speculate in the wrong direction. After spending half a winter together, he already knew the temperament of this royal woman very well.

Could it be that what she wanted to say was that she didn't actually want the fourth prince to come back? Or is it just the counter-effect caused by your own connections?

"You're not her brother anyway, so why do you care so much?" Nightingale turned over and sat on the table, lifted up her long legs, took out a piece of dried fish and stuffed it into her mouth, "And when you said that sentence, you didn't even need to use it. Everyone can tell you are lying."

Uh, is that so... Roland touched his nose, so it seems that the answer should be the latter?

"Besides, since Tilly is not her biological sister, is there no problem in handing over "Principles of Nature" to her?"

"That's called "Theoretical Foundation of Natural Science,"" the prince sighed. "It's been several months in the winter. Don't you think she can't copy it? I bet she's already familiar with the content above. Even so, she still Formally making this request to me is enough to show the other party's attitude."

At least from the perspective of political connections, Tilly is impeccably sincere.

He paused for a moment and then continued, "Furthermore, Sleeping Island is mainly composed of witches. Even if all evolutions are made, they still rely on the power of witches. But I am different. This knowledge can not only improve the witches, but also the people... I It relies on the strength of all people.”
