Chapter 2861 - 1356: Fivefold Self (Part 2)

But the progress of this process was very slow. In fact, besides learning a lot of swear words and experiencing a significant increase in crashes, the almost top-tier artificial intelligence NAVI has virtually shown no changes, nor can it instantly write a vast amount of humorous or poetic remarks for the talent skills after Double Leaf gives an example.

Therefore, if we want to achieve further results, it is imperative to deepen our understanding of the system, and it would be best to negotiate and have the other party reveal its source code to us.

Well, the progress in this area remains zero, and it is evident that the system is actually not interested in the person named Double Leaf.

Until this girl swore at it while doing the [Enforcer] task...

Thus, after Double Leaf researched the [Five-fold Body], the system finally responded for the second time (the first was when Double Leaf wrote swear words in the [Enforcer] notes and they were censored), and it was a very intense response.

Ah! It wrote three lines of remarks just to mock me!

Ha! It swore at me! It’s fantastic!!

Wow! I’m so happy!!

These were the first three thoughts Double Leaf had when she saw her [Five-fold Body] product! One could say she’s quite the masochist.

In any case, leaving these tangents aside, this skill called [Spell Control·True Mirror·Quintuple Body] is indeed, as the system wrote in remark 3, not technically advanced, and it is essentially a piece of junk without the corresponding weapon.

First, let’s take a look at the attributes of a random mirror image—

[True Mirror·Thunder]

Category: Summoned Creature

Health Points: 100/100

Physical Strength Value: 100/100

Magic Points: Synced with the body

Basic Attributes: NA/NA

Skills: Synced with the body’s Thunder Element School skills

Trait: Thunder Elemental Affinity

Specialization: Level 49 Thunder Element School

...

No more!

That’s it!

Though its stability is quite high, it’s as fragile as paper, and even without defenses, a single Hei Fan could use two [Solidifying Light Arrows] to blow it up, more fragile than a paper figure.

In terms of combat, the skills are exactly the same as those that Double Leaf can simulate through [Magic Control], and they are restricted to only the skills of the corresponding elemental school. Not only that, but if used, they must be guided by the body! What does body guidance mean? It means if you want to cast a spell that takes two seconds of chanting, you have to read for two seconds for this thing.

The consumption seems low at first glance, but losing 10 Magic Points per second is definitely not low at all. A single true mirror consumes 60 Magic Points per minute, and five would take a whole 300 points. Doing nothing for a minute would waste 300 Mana Points. If you do something... well, casting spells then, you can cast spells, but Magic consumption is singled out and is 150%, a Fire Blast Technique that uses 20 Magic Points would use 30 points, and the power wouldn’t change at all.

To be honest, if this thing falls into any player’s hands with a normal brain, it would basically be reduced to a tool for bullying weaklings, and it would definitely not be considered in serious combat.

It can only accept simple commands, indicating its intelligence would never be higher than a Mudkaqiu.

If you want precise control, look at those three skills, [Arcane Eye], [Elemental Stream Band], they each cost three-digit Magic Points per minute, [Arcane Wisdom] is a one-time buff, but using one still costs at least fifty or sixty Magics, who can bear it?

Well... Double Leaf can.

Because the weapon in her hand, called [Enforcer·Star Moon], is specifically designed for use with Arcane School spells, maintaining three Arcane Magics ranked low, mid, and high level respectively is not difficult, and the consumption is very low.

Based on this premise, she is also adept at multi-threading operations, so multitasking is not an issue, solving the problem of simultaneously controlling multiple real mirrors.

Furthermore, although Double Leaf is just an advanced stage mage, she has already been able to easily perform instant + silent spell casting for all the spells she knows, so the casting of real mirrors does not require chanting or incantations.

The most crucial thing is... although a person can only equip one weapon at a time, as we mentioned earlier, the nature of Double Leaf’s [Enforcer] is rather special, it’s of the type made on-site, and almost has no consumption. Conversely, since she can make one on-site, making five more should not be a problem, right?

Indeed, a person can only equip one weapon (a thief can dual-wield daggers, and a mage in principle cannot dual-wield magic wands, theoretically, the off-hand can hold a Mana Sphere or Code of Spells), but if the body only uses one [Enforcer·Star Moon] and then makes several more to give to different mirrors?

Nobody said it’s forbidden, right? No rule says you can’t, right?

Previously, the Showering Snow sword in the [Comprehensive Knight Combat Tournament] team battle finals, could extra manifest with the skill [Sword Shadow Step], while utilizing both the [Frostless] and [Demonic Sword], I, Double Leaf make five direct mirrors, each holding a magic wand just for entertainment, it’s quite reasonable, right?

To be honest, it’s reasonable, yet not completely reasonable.

Everyone should remember the base effect of the [Enforcer], which is that when the user equips this thing and casts a spell corresponding to its attribute, the consumption will be greatly reduced based on the user’s understanding of the magic body, potentially dropping as low as 10 points.

And who is the user?

After all mirrors were augmented with those three arcane skills, the spellcaster is naturally Double Leaf herself who completely controls the true mirrors.

So how would Double Leaf’s own ’understanding of the magic body’ be?

No more words needed, everyone can directly regard any magic successfully performed by Double Leaf as 100% proficiency, in other words — the magic points consumption stays permanently at 10 points.

Of course, this only applies to mid, low, and high-level spells. After the Epic tier, even with the [Magic Controller] profession, it’s not that simple to fully comprehend, and the mana consumption will after all go up, but for all the magic before the Epic Tier, regardless of the school, as long as it’s a spell, when Double Leaf uses the [Enforcer] with corresponding attributes for casting, the consumption is practically and realistically 10 points!

Then we look back at the mirror casting consumption, yes, it remains at 150%.

That is — 15 points.

Yes, even the system which is so prejudiced against Double Leaf, in the remarks, stated that ’without the corresponding weapon, it’s junk,’ conversely, it implies that with the corresponding weapon, the skill is somewhat a bit terrifying!

...

"Welcome to my party, friends~"

Accompanied by five Double Leaves, each filled with fire, water, wind, earth, and thunder elemental fluctuations appearing out of nowhere, uniformly grasped the [Enforcer] hovering in front of them, perfectly matching their attributes. The one standing in the center flashed a grin, clapped her hands cheerfully: "Let’s start the revelry!"

In the next moment——

The scorching heat to the extent of suffocating twisted the air, as the entirely blue-white blazing [Pale Flame Wheel] descended from the sky!

The icy cold capable of almost freezing blood swept out, as the [Zero Degree Ripple] roared past attackers from all directions, covering the places it passed with a frigid frost.

Amidst thunderous roaring, a giant upright stone, continuously flowing with dark yellow patterns, disrupted the clouds, the straightforward and unpretentious high-ranking magic [Square Stone], following closely behind the cyan-blue flames, plunging rapidly downward.

Yet the piled clouds just dispersed did not dissolve but swiftly transitioned from white to purple, morphing into deep swirling vortices spinning virally, briefly halting, and then numerous [Thunder Spike Storms] fiercely smashed down.

Silently, ripples skimmed through flames, past frost, over sturdy earth, amid thunder, the [Vacuum Ripple] extended with eye-evading speed, yearning to shred human bodies and armor.

Like starlight, flowing light softly laid down, shielding the frail elemental physiques behind the mighty [Arcane Barrier], mysteriously secluded, invulnerable.

An abrupt revelry thus unfolded——
