Chapter 532: Common Ground.
Creating or manifesting the electromagnetic field is the solution he came up with as the product of the perfect fusion of the trinity of wood, lightning, and divine sense.
To be exact, his idea is to convert his divine sense into a tool capable of controlling an electromagnetic field. The electromagnetic field will be produced in his foundation while his divine sense controls it.
He doesn’t think he will have any problems achieving this because he knows about electromagnetic induction. He intends to use this theory to convert the electricity in his life seeds into a magnetic field that his divine sense can control by using his divine sense to cause a flux in the electric field of his life seeds.
In his past life, humans used the theory of electromagnetic induction to produce electricity by moving a conductor in a magnetic field. This is a process of converting mechanical energy into electricity. What he intends to do is reverse it.
His grin peaked as she said, "I already have the electricity, so it’s time to put the magnetism in the electromagnetic field."
He was in a good mood, so he laughed. He was also in a hurry to put what he had in mind into action, so he rushed back to his apartment.
When he got to his apartment, he opened the door and dashed in quickly. He didn’t even greet Roar as he sped by.
Roar was sleeping on the floor when he entered. The big golden dog quickly woke up and began pretending to practice spells.
But when he saw that Arthur didn’t bother with him, he stopped pretending and went back to sleep. Arthur saw this, but he didn’t care at the moment.
He rushed to grab a book. It was a large book with papers as large as one meter by one meter.
Despite how large the sheets of paper were, they were still not enough for what he wanted to do. He had to tear out a lot of them and arrange them on the floor.
After he was done covering the floor with large pieces of white paper, he began drawing circles on the papers. He drew 1,024 circles in total. Within those circles, he drew many pieces of irregular objects.
After doing his, he began connecting the irregular objects in the circles with lines. He drew the lines in such a way that they formed the runes. Then he arranged the individual runes into a large formation.
The 1,024 circles are his life seeds. The irregular objects within them are the positive and negative terminals.
The terminals are currently connected in a way that helps him mobilize the power of all of his life seeds at the same time. But he is changing the connection of the terminals into a more complicated formation.
He is not making things more complicated just for the fun of it. The formation is complicated because it needs to be so and because it is the only way he knows to create a temporary magnet with life seeds.
The best part of his plan is that silver is nonmagnetic, so his stunt won’t cause his life seeds to clump together and be crushed by the magnetic field. Only the connections he makes with the life seeds will produce the magnetic field itself.
The idea sounds simple, but it is not easy to execute at all. It required his full mental faculties, and he even had to employ the Mind Clones of the Mountain Foundation divine ability to help him think.
He made mistakes in his design many times. This caused him to start all over again many times. It also caused him to become pissed.
He was angry and in a bad mood for many days as he toiled over the designs. Sometimes, he would roar as he tore up the sheets of paper. Other times he would just curse.
It took him almost three days before he got the design right. Then it took him another ten hours to test the design on an artifact. Only when he was sure that everything was safe did he go ahead with applying the design to his life seeds.
He sat down and concentrated his mind. Then he focused his divine sense on his life seeds and began using it to remove the previous straightforward connection that he had made within and between them.
After he removed the old connection, he began putting in place the new connection. The new connection was very complicated, so he did the process slowly and carefully. He didn’t rush at all.
He first made the connections within each life seed to form the runes. He made sure that each of them was in perfect shape before he began connecting the life seeds to each other to create the formation.
Sometimes, he would open his eyes to glance at the design again just to make sure that he wasn’t making a mistake. This was despite the fact that he had already memorized the design.
The process was slow and steady. Even so, it took him exactly the time it took him to forge a small artifact capable of producing a magnetic field with runes.
This was because he had to prepare the materials for the artifacts. So even though he was slower in applying the design to his life seeds, it took him the exact same time since he already had the perfect materials to use.
When the formation was completed, his life seeds hummed to life. A magnetic field spread outwards from him that made the metallic objects in his vicinity levitate.
The range of the magnetic field could be as large as the range of his divine sense, which should be 1,000 meters but is actually 5,000 meters because of the enhancement of the Mountain Karma divine ability.
He could control all the metal objects in the magnetic field surrounding him in a way that his divine sense couldn’t before.
