But let's not think about it now, let's just try the staff honestly... Jiang Kehan slowly channeled her magic power into the two small balls.
Suddenly, the two small balls floated up gently and began scanning Jiang Kehan's data from left and right, then constructed an icosahedral light curtain to envelop her.
Jiang Kehan could clearly see that the surrounding space began to shatter, like glass being impacted, slowly and irregularly falling off.
It was slow, yet fast; the complex sensations gave her a severe sense of disconnect, yet also a feeling of familiarity.
It's like the moment before the timeline was unified after returning from the shattered space where Solita was.
Dude, did you just steal your virtual reality from the subspace?
Isn't this right? !
Jiang Kehan was speechless and felt a little suffocated.
She had underestimated the witch's ability to cause trouble. She now had two bodies in her mind: one in reality, enveloped by an icosahedral light curtain, and the other in the vast trial grounds.
Wow, Jiang Kehan exclaimed, "Wow, reality and virtuality are transmitted in real time! I'm no longer afraid of being subjected to strange things because I'm addicted to virtual reality!"
She focused her consciousness into the body in the training ground and could clearly feel a bit awkward at first, but as magic power was transferred from the small ball into this body, this awkwardness quickly disappeared.
"Someone once said that magic and consciousness constitute the basic elements of a witch, and are also the basic logic of virtual reality."
Seeing that Jiang Kehan was very interested in the virtual network, Hannah explained it to her.
"Well, it's obvious that magic and consciousness alone don't have the concept of injury or death, nor can they stimulate a witch's instinctive desire for evolution, so they can only be used for trivial matters."
"It's like a duel. With the life emblem, the virtual web is superfluous, which is why it hasn't been valued—sensory enjoyment can't ultimately bring about true evolution."
Jiang Kehan swallowed hard; she was completely stunned.
This felt exactly like reality! If it weren't for the constant image of two bodies in her mind and the instinctive boredom, she might not have been able to tell which was the real reality.
As a qualified time traveler, she even felt a chill for a moment.
The idea of creating a jar in one's brain seems to be something a witch could easily achieve.
Damn, thank goodness I transmigrated into a witch. If I were from another race, I wouldn't be able to tell the difference at all.
However, after a brief chill, there was a surge of excitement!
This level of realism... games don't care if they can bring about evolution; they're meant to be enjoyed. The virtual network is naturally the best platform for making games—Jiang Kehan was practically bubbling with happiness.
She immediately thought of resetting the games she used to play using the virtual network.
Not for any other reason than for that feeling in my heart.
Chapter 185 Cat Ball? Cannon!
But it's clear that Hannah, as a professional blacksmith, doesn't understand the "romance" of being a time traveler in Jiang Kehan's little brain.
After Jiang Kehan got used to the virtual network, her voice came from all directions.
"Are you ready? I need to set the appropriate staff parameters. If possible, it would be best to give me your magic data."
Jiang Kehan escaped from the fantasy in her mind and realized that she could summon a system similar to a game interface.
The belated Tongzi finally appeared before her in an unexpected way, though it was a fake.
The parameters of Jiang Kehan's body are displayed above, and can even be adjusted freely. If it weren't for the fact that it's not suitable now, Jiang Kehan's desire to customize her character's appearance would be almost uncontrollable.
The system also directly linked Jiang Kehan's terminal data, including her magic information, through magic.
“Okay,” Jiang Kehan replied to Hannah and sent the information to her.
But a few seconds later, she tilted her head in confusion, and after receiving the data, Hannah fell silent.
Finally, before Jiang Kehan could return to reality to see if anything was wrong, Hannah's somewhat shocked voice rang out.
"Hiss, you are the most powerful little witch I have ever met. In terms of magic alone, I can't think of any other little witch how she could beat you."
"I can't wait to design a suitable staff for you, it's so much fun!"
A witch's job is mostly related to her own interests, unless the other party offers her an excessive amount.
Hannah clearly falls into the first category. She originally thought Jiang Kehan was just a junior whom Qin Luoyu was mentoring, and she was only working with the attitude of treating a commission out of respect for the other party.
But now, she feels like she's faced a completely new challenge, which makes her eager to try it out.
"Let me think about it. Since the magic power increases so quickly, the staff's adaptive system needs to be improved so that you can use at least 4000 magic power."
"Your control over magic is completely mismatched with the amount of magic you have, that's a bit difficult."
Jiang Kehan's smug little face immediately darkened. Although she knew the other party meant no harm, she still felt offended.
Well, control is something that can be practiced. Don't underestimate me just because I'm not very good at it now. You know, things can change in the future.
After a while, I'll be back with another one... well, I guess I'm still a noob...
Now she was truly left standing on the side of the road. Jiang Kehan was on the verge of tears. She really had no confidence that her control over magic could keep up with the abnormally rapid increase in her magic power.
Normal spellcasting is a bit like kneading dough.
Magic power growth is like constantly adding water to dough, while control is like kneading the dough into shape; the better you knead, the greater the spell's power.
Jiang Kehan's current situation is that the water she's added is turning the mixture into a paste, and she's at a loss as to how to knead it into shape.
This situation was unavoidable before she became the Great Witch, and it was also the main reason why she forged ahead on the path of the Turret Witch.
Since it won't take shape, just splashing the paste all over your face is one way to go!
But Jiang Kehan still shamelessly asked. (Illustrated by: Yi Liuqi/Dad Qisi Lu)
"Then, Miss Hannah, do you have any solutions?"
Well, who doesn't want to be stronger? And using tools to make up for shortcomings is a wisdom passed down from our ancestors.
Hannah was clearly deep in thought, with one brilliant idea after another popping into her head, only to be quickly rejected by her.
"If it's a floating cannon, it's possible to pre-set the Fal E Er Er Yi San Lin F Ba 2 artillery model in different cannons... No, if you want to change it after pre-setting, it will take time, so it's only suitable for hunting battles that can be prepared in advance."
"But you happen to be a witch duelist, and in battle, you value adaptability the most. However, this way of thinking..."
"Have it!"
Hannah clapped her hands, her eyes seemingly shining.
But Jiang Kehan felt a tightness in her heart. She was all too familiar with this state; she would feel like this when she got carried away while doing alchemy.
The result was either an explosion or a massive explosion.
Such cases of blindly trying to create potions by self-reading are too rare. Jiang Kehan even suspected that she had used up all her luck in alchemy that time.
Otherwise, how could she have fried it so many times? It couldn't be that she's a complete novice, could it?
"Would you be interested in raising a few more cat balls?"
Hannah's tone was slightly amused, but what she said left Jiang Kehan completely puzzled.
"Huh?" Jiang Kehan was taken aback, not quite understanding what the other person meant by mentioning the cat ball.
"Although the catballs don't have much spellcasting ability, it's still possible to make them memorize some spell models and use some special methods to make them assist in spellcasting."
"You don't have many spells on your deck right now, which is just enough to get you through this rather awkward period."
Huh? It actually works!
Jiang Kehan was slightly surprised. After thinking about it for a moment, she found that the plan was surprisingly feasible.
As a strange creature whose true form is in the Silver Sea, Meowball has a pretty good memory; it just doesn't have any magical energy to cast spells.
Furthermore, since the original body is a manifestation of some kind of rule, there is no such creature as the Catball Witch.
If the floating cannons were made into a cat-ball mech-like design, they could assist in casting spells, thereby increasing their power!
The only problem is where did all these cat balls come from to make Izaki Ryu~Is/anEmu2 her pet?
You should know that wild cats are fine, but if you keep one as a private pet, they are extremely possessive. They're the kind that will fight you if you dare to keep a second cat.
"Then how many cat balls..." Jiang Kehan asked hesitantly.
"Hmm, just reduce the number of floating cannons you control," Hannah said nonchalantly. "Besides, Meowball is actually hired."
"It's just that most of the catball's abilities are purely for laughs, so it's not common for witches to hire catballs."
Um, Jiang Kehan recalled the notes Shan Lin had given her. The cat ball's abilities were all sorts of things, but basically none of them were actually useful.
Even if it were a chaotic cat ball, it would be a joke to use it as a battle partner, and given its nasty personality, it would only run away faster than a witch.
However, the quality of the witch's wands is very good, even better than that of the combat suit.
The staff has almost never broken in duels, so the catball hidden in the floating cannon has no worries about getting injured.
Although it's a bit abstract, as a cat-ball that can cast its image back from the Silver Sea after death, a guardian of the rules, and even as wicked as a witch in some ways, it is actually afraid of pain.
I'm very afraid of pain.
That's why only a few cat balls can be taken into battle. If you dare to take them, they will dare to run away, and they will run away faster than you.
Even if you put a pain-inducing spell on the catballs, they can still feel pain.
Some witches have researched this, and it turns out that the cat ball itself is just experiencing phantom pain from seeing itself injured in the Silver Sea, which is quite abstract.
You're afraid of phantom pain too?!
From then on, even the witch gave up the idea of letting the catball try fighting, unless the opponent's rules were inherently combat-related.
"Shall we try a simulation?" Jiang Kehan asked with a hint of anticipation.
Recruiting catballs will only be considered after testing whether the idea is feasible, and the virtual web is obviously the best place to try it out.
"I'll give it a try. I'm really looking forward to seeing the results," Hannah said excitedly.
"After all, this is the first time I've seen a situation where I need to rely on cat balls to improve my magic control. The effect of their assistance is only slightly higher than the normal level."
But it was enough for Jiang Kehan. Although her current level of control had been improved under Yang Xiling's influence, she had caught up with the normal level.
However, as magic power increases, what is destined to decrease will still decrease, and the gap will only widen.
She is less than two months away from her first puberty.
That will be another major explosion of magical power.
Chapter 186 Reencounter with the Bone Witch Dragon
As Hannah finished speaking, starlight gathered in Jiang Kehan's palm, creating ripples.
She could clearly feel the starlight solidifying in her hands, creating objects with a metallic texture.
