Chapter 219: Chapter 173 History_3
“Actually, Greiya is really good at taking care of people… Ah, by the way, Sir Knight, I did want to talk to you about something.”
“Oh? What’s up?”
Duanmu Huai knew, Ann wouldn’t be having a chat with him for no reason in the middle of the night.
“Well, recently, the academy organized an exploration event, having us explore the Underground City, and guess what! We found something really interesting in there! It’s called … the Eye of Magnus…”
“Hmm… Huh!? Wait a second, the Eye of Magnus?!”
Upon hearing this name, Duanmu Huai suddenly became alert, quickly opening his eyes.
The Eye of Magnus? Was it that Eye of Magnus?
“What does it look like?”
“Um… It’s a massive sphere that emits light. It’s encased in a rotating metallic shell…”
“Damn! It’s indeed that thing!!”
Upon hearing this, Duanmu Huai blurted out an expletive.
The reason was simple, he was all too familiar with this thing!
This has to do with the sixteenth genetic prototype Duanmu Huai possessed – the original owner of this prototype was the Red King Magnus, one of the children of the Human Imperial Emperor. He was a psychic with the most outstanding spiritual abilities among all the Emperor’s children. At that time, there were quite a few psychics with mutated abilities in Magnus’ Thousand Sons Army.
In essence, Magnus was like a knowledge-seeking, powerful mage, leading an equally strong mage army. His homeworld was a treasure trove of knowledge and leadership.
However, Magnus only had one eye. Although he claimed he had dedicated his right eye to the pursuit of knowledge, according to the gossip from various dealers in the Subspace, Magnus lost his right eye in a gamble with the God of Trickery.
Afterwards, to flaunt his victory, the God of Trickery turned Magnus’s right eye into a divine artifact known as the “Eye of Magnus”. Magnus tried to reclaim his right eye, but he never succeeded.
In the game, the Eye of Magnus was a power amplifier for spiritual energy. In gaming terms, within the range of Magnus’ Eye, the attack power of all psychic spells would be greatly enhanced, and the bearer would even be covered in spiritual energy, gaining near-invincible defensive power.
If it served as a flagship artifact for the fleet, it would double the Void Shield defensive power of all the warships in the fleet, and even enable them to safely navigate through the Subspace turbulence.
Yes, it was very handy and powerful, and of course, it had a side effect that was not mentioned in the instructions.
As we all know, the more a psychic in the real world uses spiritual energy, the more his/her body is likely to mutate. This was also the case for the Eye of Magnus. In fact, there had been cases where mage players used the Eye of Magnus in a battlefield and found that over half of their psychic army had turned into strange monsters of blue and pink after…
Of course, there is no such danger for Soul Walkers, after all, the soul cards themselves are already Subspace projections and can’t mutate further!
“Where is that thing now?”
“Huh? The Chief Mage moved it to Winterhold Academy, saying he wants to investigate it.”
“Wait for me, I’ll be there tomorrow!”
At this moment, Duanmu Huai’s previous gloominess vanished instantly. He didn’t expect to find the Eye of Magnus in this Fragmented World!
It turned out, coming to this continent was the right decision!
