Chapter 593: 191. Fortune and misfortune coexist
[System Message:]
[You have consumed 6,000 points of Energy and have initiated Harmless Deconstruction on the “Abnormal Magic Metal Bar”.]
[Deconstruction Success!]
[You have obtained the following deconstruction results:]
[Deconstruction Result 1: A small portion of the target’s panel information:]
[Name] No. 15 Lock-chain Transmission Array Frame Component
[Type] Metal Magic Creation, Plane Transmission Artifact
[Item Level] Unknown
[Feature]
Magic Theft:
This Magic Metal Bar, made of Metal Magic, is a directional mana conduction chain link, and it is part of the entire mana conduction system.
Inside it, there is something that should not exist: “Magical Runes: Magic Theft”.
Through this magical rune, the Metal Ancestor Dragon Talsale stole the mana from the Teleportation Array.
Because Talsale’s mastery of magic was too high, none of the people at the scene could detect any problems with the direction of mana conduction in the Array.
[Deconstruction Result 2: Fragmentary “Spell Blueprint: Magic Theft” with 1% completeness. Continuing to deconstruct “Abnormal Magic Metal Bars” can improve the completeness of this blueprint.]
Noland Lee read the deconstruction results, and a glint of light flashed in his eyes.
The Metal Ancestor Dragon truly deserved to be an ancient giant dragon that had lived for more than 3,000 years; it had actually mastered the “Magic Theft,” a powerful spell that had long been lost.
In both books, “Fundamentals of Magic” and “Wizard Sage,” there appeared a common wizard force: the notorious “Magic Thief Society.”
Ordinary wizards obtain the mana they need through meditation.
On the other hand, the people of the Magic Thief Society do not meditate themselves and specialize in stealing mana from others. Their signature skill is the “Magic Theft” spell.
The fact that the Metal Ancestor Dragon used “Magic Theft” to aid its fusion with the Magic Ship is truly daring and unconventional thinking.
The Magic Thief Society was hunted down and exterminated by wizards more than a thousand years ago. The “Magic Theft” spell they had mastered also vanished in the course of history.
Now that the “Magic Theft” has reemerged, Noland Lee was fortunate enough to become the only witness on the scene.
In any case, he did not want to miss out on “Magic Theft”.
When he had the chance, Noland planned to actively search for historical materials on the Magic Thief Society to see how these pioneers of magic theft played with “Magic Theft.”
Noland reached into his Magic Pouch and pinched a gold coin in his hand.
If drinking the Longevity Elixir can trigger passive deconstruction, then fusing gold coins using the “Strong Metal Fusion” Meditation Method should also trigger passive deconstruction.
Noland gripped the gold coin in his hand, called up the Meditation Method list in his mind, and activated the “Strong Metal Fusion” Meditation Method.
[System Message:]
[You are about to forcibly fuse a “Coin with a denomination of 1 gold coin”.]
[The mass of this gold coin is 2 grams, its item level is 10, and the provided Meditation Method experience is 20 points.]
[You need to consume 250 points of Energy to fuse it.]
[Do you confirm the fusion?]
Noland silently recited:
“Confirm.”
A faint warmth emerged in his palm, and the gold coin in his hand melted like snow.
Noland felt a slight burning sensation in his palm, and then he received a system message.
[Forced Fusion Success!]
[Strong Metal Fusion Meditation Method Experience +20, now at Level 0, 20/1,000.]
[You have inflicted fatal damage on the “Coin with a denomination of 1”.]
[Passive Deconstruction Activated!]
[You have obtained the following deconstruction results:]
[1. Target’s panel information.]
[2. 100,000 points of Energy Value Reward.]
Yes, it worked. It can indeed trigger passive deconstruction!
Noland cheered inwardly.
This was just the first piece of good news!
Another piece of good news was that Noland could also passively deconstruct the seven types of gold coins with denominations of 2, 10, 20, 50, 100, 1,000, and 10,000 in the same way!
This was equivalent to carrying nearly a million points of Energy with him!
Noland suppressed his excitement. He couldn’t wait any longer to check the formulas and production techniques of the gold coins and hurriedly launched the Deconstruction Technique at the Magic Metal Bar, about to be stored in the Magic Pouch.
After expending 54,000 Energy Points in one breath, Noland finally got what he wanted.
[You have obtained all the panel information of the “Abnormal Magic Metal Bar”.]
[You have obtained the Fragmentary “Spell Blueprint: Magic Theft” with 10% completeness.]
[You cannot improve the completeness of this rune in any way.]
Noland threw the just-acquired blueprint into the Deconstruction and reviewed its panel information.
Not bad, it was indeed a treasure for stealing mana, just as described in the books.
The completeness of this blueprint was 10%.
Noland checked where the defects were.
The magic patterns he drew only had 20% of the effectiveness under normal circumstances. Whereas others could steal 100 points of mana, he could only steal 20 points.
However!
The System would never let him down.
Although his stealing efficiency was indeed low, his traces would never be discovered.
The System clearly marked this on the panel information:
“Since this magic was obtained through Harmless Deconstruction, the System has removed all negative factors such as the external appearance of the rune, the energy fluctuations of the rune, the animation effect of casting the rune, and the backlash effect of the mana stolen.”
Noland had not yet tested the effect of this magic pattern, but he was certain that the magic pattern he drew would be entirely transparent and would not have any magic light or energy fluctuations.
